The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1360 I told you to leave, so you left?

Lin Chen sat on the stone steps, seemingly admiring the scenery, but in reality, he was feeling the sharp sword intent emanating from the stone steps beneath his buttocks.

This stone staircase is located in the middle of the entire staircase, and it is just an inconspicuous step. However, the sword intent at this step is the deepest and most fierce among the tens of thousands of steps of the entire staircase.

Even if an ordinary cultivator steps onto these stone steps, it would be difficult to detect the sword intent within them. After all, that faint aura is too easily concealed by the sharp sword intent on this Heavenly Sword Peak.

Even if one could sense the sword intent on the stone steps, how many people could distinguish the subtle differences within that sword intent?

Lin Chen looked down at the steps beneath his feet, his eyes filled with inexplicable excitement.

He was about 70-80% certain that the Heavenly Sword inheritance was below these steps, but he didn't know what form this inheritance would take.

Lin Chen was sitting when he suddenly felt something. He turned around and saw Su Wu watching him from not far above.

"senior……"

Lin Chen stood up and greeted Su Wu warmly, but inwardly he wondered if Su Wu's coincidental appearance meant that he had been paying attention to him all along.
Su Wu's talent was average...

Su Wu has guarded Tianjian Peak for thousands of years...

Did Su Wu always know where the inheritance was? Was he cleaning the stone steps every day not to search for the inheritance, but to protect it?
As Su Shaoling's sword servant, I am responsible for protecting this legacy for my master and selecting a qualified successor.

It makes sense!

If this is the truth, then this stone staircase may not be the source of the heritage, but rather just a test.

Only those who pass the test have the opportunity to receive the inheritance.

In a short moment, many thoughts flashed through Lin Chen's mind, and his mind became clearer and clearer.

Su Wu floated down and stood beside Lin Chen, asking casually, "What are you doing?"

Lin Chen hesitated for a second before deciding to tell him frankly, because all of Su Wu's actions indicated that he knew a lot of things.

"I am sensing the sword intent on these stone steps."

Su Wu nodded, his expression calm: "Tianjian Peak is where the master comprehended the sword. Everything on this mountain is imbued with sword intent to varying degrees... What are your feelings?"

Lin Chen said frankly, "The sword intent on this mountain is overwhelming, but the sword intent on this stone staircase is different. It is extremely weak, but it has its own sharpness. I think that if there is really a Heavenly Sword inheritance on Heavenly Sword Peak, it is most likely to be under this stone staircase."

Su Wu smiled slightly: "Is this your reason for coming here every day to walk up the stone steps?"

Lin Chen explained, "No, that's not it. I didn't think much about it before. I just felt that I should show respect to the two seniors. Also, I felt very comfortable walking on this path. It's just that I might have been walking fast before, so I didn't notice the hidden sword intent that was different from the others." "When I followed the seniors to sweep the steps, I slowed down and even sat on the steps to rest several times. It was only then that I felt the difference in that sword intent. Then I discovered that the sword intent on each step had different strengths and weaknesses. It seemed to be a kind of mysterious guidance, pointing to the strongest part of that sword intent."

Su Wu stared at Lin Chen: "Is your understanding of sword intent so obvious because of your sword bones?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes, although my sword bones were refined later, they are already a magic weapon and integrated into my body. Therefore, my perception of sword intent is much stronger than before. If it were me before, I definitely wouldn't have been able to perceive it."

Su Wu's eyes held a complex expression, a mixture of joy and anticipation.

"So, have you found the strongest point of that sword intent?"

Lin Chen stared into Su Wu's eyes and stamped his foot: "It's right here, below these steps. There should be something there, but I don't know exactly what it is."

Su Wu lowered his head, looking at the steps beneath Lin Chen's feet, his gaze complex.

"Is it here? I've scanned this staircase countless times, and I still can't find the exact spot. You've only been here a short time, yet you've already found the exact location..."

Su Wu suddenly looked up and said coldly, "You are not a member of my White Crane Immortal Sect. Please leave Heavenly Sword Peak."

Crossing the river and then dismantling the bridge?
Lin Chen wasn't angry. He smiled and said, "Okay, senior, thank you for taking care of me these past few days."

Lin Chen turned around and had just taken off when Su Wu's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"and many more."

Lin Chen turned around and met Su Wu's slightly confused gaze: "Senior, is there anything else you need to tell me?"

Su Wu frowned: "Below this step, perhaps lies the Heavenly Sword inheritance you've been searching for..."

Lin Chen smiled, his expression calm: "Perhaps."

Su Wu stared into Lin Chen's eyes: "The Heavenly Sword Inheritance is unparalleled in the world, are you willing to accept this? I'm using you and then discarding you, letting you leave, and you just leave?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I am not a disciple of the White Crane Immortal Sect. The Heavenly Sword Inheritance belongs to the White Crane Immortal Sect. It is normal that they will not let me learn the Heavenly Sword Inheritance. Besides, I helped the White Crane Immortal Sect find the Heavenly Sword Inheritance, which can be considered a favor. Even if I cannot learn the Heavenly Sword Inheritance, it is not bad to earn a favor."

Su Wu's gaze was sharp as a sword, staring directly at Lin Chen. Lin Chen's gaze was calm and his conscience was clear.

After a long while, Su Wu, with a cold face, beckoned to Lin Chen: "Come here."
