The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1495 News of an Old Friend

The golden-winged roc flapped its wings and landed on the empty mountain path.

Su Wu's figure appeared in the sky above the mountain path, and Ji Ruxue and the other three also emerged from the mountainside.

Everyone stared in shock at Lin Chen, who was sitting cross-legged on Little Golden Head.

Lin Chen was gone for more than six years, and he came back so impressively?

That was the incredibly proud Golden-Winged Roc, and he actually tamed it?
Isn't he just a celestial being?
How on earth did he do it?
Lin Chen patted Xiao Jin and floated up into the air: "Fifth Uncle, long time no see..."

Su Wu's gaze fell on Little Golden: "Golden-Winged Roc, how did you do that?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "They helped me hatch and raise them."

Hatched?
No wonder.

But who would be so bold as to steal the Golden-Winged Roc's egg? Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

The Golden-Winged Roc has a temper that is definitely not good!
It eats meat!

Lin Chen gave Xiao Jin a few instructions, and Xiao Jin flapped its wings and flew towards the summit of Tianjian Peak.

Su Wu's gaze fell on Lin Chen's face, his expression subtle: "I heard that you went to celebrate the birthday of the Donghua Ancestor on behalf of the sect leader, and you ended up killing the Donghua Ancestor with a single sword strike?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Yes, he wanted to refine all of us into essence blood to help him break through to the next level. He was unlucky to run into me. He's just unlucky."

The Old Ancestor Donghua was indeed unlucky. He never expected that a human immortal would ultimately ruin his plan and even kill him with a single sword!
Even if Meng Gongxin had gone himself, he might not have been able to handle the matter and would likely have died on the spot. In a sense, Lin Chen shielded Meng Gongxin from disaster and saved his life.

Su Wu praised, "You've really brought honor to the White Crane Immortal Sect. After all, you saved many important figures in the sect back then, and that's a huge favor."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I was just trying to save myself, it was just a coincidence."

Su Wu asked, "I heard you also took on a disciple for Heavenly Sword Peak?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes, a teenage girl. Has she come back in the last few years?"

Su Wu nodded: "She came once, stayed for about ten days, and then left. She said she had to walk her own path, and there was nothing we could do to help her..."

Lin Chen wasn't surprised and laughed, "Is she here to acknowledge her place?"

Su Wu smiled and said, "I noticed that she maintains a distant and wary attitude towards everyone, but when she talks about you, her eyes and expression are completely different. It's clear that she trusts and relies on you a lot."

Lin Chen nodded: "She suffered a huge change in her childhood, so her mentality is definitely different from that of ordinary people. Let her be. In time, she may get better."

At this moment, Ji Ruxue and three others came up to greet them.

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Zifeng obtained the opportunity from the Seven Wonders Palace, so to avoid unpredictable dangers, we didn't come looking for you. You didn't encounter any difficulties, did you?" Ji Ruxue respectfully replied, "They questioned us, but didn't do anything else."

Lin Chen nodded, dismissed them, and then walked back to the house on the mountain with Su Wu.

"Any news from the Wilderness Realm?"

Su Wu smiled and said, "Yes, your sect members from the Wilderness Realm have come up, but you'll have to ask the sect leader for details."

Lin Chen was overjoyed, but also somewhat worried.

There were several of them; did their ascension go smoothly?

There were only two people on Tianjian Peak, so there was nothing to do. After a brief chat with Su Wu, Lin Chen went to the cave of Sect Master Meng Gongxin.

"metropolitan?"

Upon hearing the news, Meng Gongxin emerged from his cave and, seeing Lin Chen, beamed with joy: "Junior Uncle, you're back!"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Yes, it took a little longer to get out."

"Junior Uncle, please come in quickly, let's talk inside!"

Meng Gongxin invited Lin Chen into the cave, personally brewed him a cup of tea, and then bowed respectfully.

Lin Chen asked in surprise, "Sect Master, what are you doing?"

Meng Gongxin said seriously, "First, I apologize. I entrusted you with the task of attending the birthday celebration of the Donghua Patriarch, which put you in a dangerous situation. If it weren't for the sword energy given to you by Senior Li, you would probably be trapped there."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Who could have predicted this? Besides, isn't the outcome pretty good now?"

Meng Gongxin cupped his hands and said, "The second thing is to express my gratitude. If it hadn't been you, but I had gone myself, I would probably have been refined into essence blood and absorbed by the Donghua Ancestor, becoming nourishment for his advancement. Junior Uncle has saved my life."

Seeing Meng Gongxin's insistence, Lin Chen smiled nonchalantly and said, "Alright, I'll accept this thanks."

Meng Gongxin then sat down opposite Lin Chen and asked, "Junior Uncle, you've come here to inquire about the ascension of your relatives and friends in the Wilderness Realm, haven't you?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes, I've heard news about them."

Meng Gongxin nodded and replied, "Junior Uncle is the Human Emperor of the Wilderness Realm and the Peak Master of the Heavenly Sword Peak of our White Crane Immortal Sect. We have naturally been keeping a close eye on the matters you instructed us to attend to."

"In the past six years, quite a few people related to Junior Uncle have indeed ascended to immortality, including your former sect members and even the Demon Emperor..."
