The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1389 You give me a word, should we deal with him or not?

Lin Chen glanced around: "What's going on? Why are they arguing?"

Guo Wuhui walked over and replied respectfully, "Junior Uncle displayed great power in the secret realm, killing some despicable villains until they were utterly humiliated. As a result, some sects lost face and their morale collapsed."

After a pause, Guo Wuhui gave a thumbs up, his eyes filled with undisguised pride, and said in an admiring tone, "Junior Uncle is indeed worthy of being the inheritor of the Heavenly Sword. He's amazing! This battle has really brought honor to our White Crane Immortal Sect!"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I'm only at the early stage of Human Immortal. Any big shot could easily crush me. What's so impressive about that?"

Guo Wuhui chuckled: "The sect not only looks at the present, but also at the future. If we're talking about strengths, others may have them, but doesn't our White Crane Immortal Sect have them too? Who's afraid of who?"

Lin Chen nodded and asked in a low voice, "Will a fight break out?"

Guo Wuhui replied, "It's inevitable to spout trash talk in front of everyone, but it's unlikely that a real fight will break out. After all, if word gets out, I'll lose face too."

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief: "That's fine then."

Guo Wuhui said respectfully, "Junior Uncle, you have had a hard journey. Please rest here for a while. After all the disciples return, you can ride the Lightning Eagle back to the sect together."

Lin Chen nodded: "Okay!"

Lin Chen ignored the strange looks from those around him and went straight back to the White Crane Immortal Sect's camp.

As soon as he arrived, he attracted the attention of many disciples of the White Crane Immortal Sect, whose eyes were filled with undisguised admiration and pride.

He was a Human Immortal in his early stage who easily defeated more than twenty Human Immortals in their late stage or peak stages, and even killed more than ten of them before his own life was extinguished. This achievement was incredibly explosive in the entire Immortal Realm.

Even Su Shaoling, the most famous of the White Crane Immortal Sect back then, did not have such an impressive record when he was in the Human Immortal Realm. The Heavenly Sword Peak lineage is truly getting stronger with each generation!
He was once the Human Emperor of the Wilderness Realm. Although the Wilderness Realm was just a lower realm, becoming the emperor of a realm in his thirties was something that ordinary people could do.
Lin Chen has helped most of the adventure teams these days. These people have witnessed Lin Chen's strength and his generosity.

Lin Chen threw out the magic treasure room, entered it himself, swallowed a pill, and then sat cross-legged to circulate his internal energy to recover.

In the previous battle, although Lin Chen was very powerful and killed a group of immortals, it actually took a lot of effort on him. After all, the combat power that each immortal can unleash when they die is very strong. To kill them all at the same time would be quite costly.

Meanwhile, in the Haotian Sect's camp, a group of people with grim faces were discussing in hushed tones. "What are we going to do? Our Haotian Sect has lost all face this time. The Gongsun brothers, Gongsun Tu and Gongsun Hai, were both killed by Lin Chen, their bodies and souls destroyed. Everyone is laughing at us!"

"We can't just let this go. Our relationship with the White Crane Immortal Sect has always been tense, with frequent frictions. If Lin Chen, who has obtained the Heavenly Sword inheritance, grows stronger, given his ruthless and decisive nature, will our Haotian Sect have any chance of survival?"

"Yes, this kid must die!"

"Everyone knows how powerful Su Shaoling of the Heavenly Sword Sect was back then. Because of offending Su Shaoling, the Five Peaks of Haotian became the Four Peaks of Haotian. This was a great disgrace to our Haotian Sect. Now the Heavenly Sword inheritance has reappeared, and we have even made enemies. Are we going to wait for him to grow up and repeat the scene of that year?"

Sitting at the head of the table was Wu Ying, an elder of the Haotian Sect and a peak True Immortal. He listened to the chatter of the people below him with a cold expression and icy eyes.

"Elder, give us your answer. Should we proceed or not?"

Wu Ying looked up and asked calmly, "What should we do? Just attack? Guo Wuhui is no pushover, and he's going to kill Lin Chen in front of everyone. Is that even possible?"

After a long silence, someone spoke up: "We definitely can't do it here, but we can do it on their way home."

Wu Ying's gaze fell on the man: "How do you plan to do this?"

The man whispered, "As far as I know, the one in charge here is Guo Wuhui, a peak True Immortal. But the one who led the team before was Lin Chen and his first-generation disciple Liu Qianyun. They are both Human Immortals. Guo Wuhui probably won't be going back with them this time..."

Everyone's eyes lit up immediately. If Guo Wuhui was with them, things would definitely be difficult. After all, a peak True Immortal was extremely powerful. If they couldn't beat him and wanted to run away, who could stop them?

If we take action and the person escapes, wouldn't that leave behind a potential threat and cause trouble?

If there are only two Human Immortals, even if Lin Chen possesses the Eight-Armed Arhat and has the strength to fight against Earth Immortals, wouldn't he be like an ant in front of a peak True Immortal?
The man continued, "We can pretend to evacuate. On the way, the elders will lead several immortals to intercept them. None of them will be able to escape. We can conceal our identities then. Even if some manage to escape, as long as we don't expose our identities, the White Crane Immortal Sect can't pin the blame on us."

A cold glint appeared in Wu Ying's eyes as she decisively ordered, "Do it this way! Lin Chen must die; we absolutely cannot let him grow stronger!"
