The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1638 Your expression... you don't want to?
After listening to the old story of Dugu Feiyan and her senior brother, Lin Chen smiled and said, "Since your senior brother gave you this token, it is naturally yours. Although you no longer need it, you can give it to a junior in the sect that you like or admire."

Looking into Lin Chen's clear eyes, Dugu Feiyan smiled and said, "Although he did give them to me, we agreed to explore together. We almost died for them, so we can't go back on our word."

Lin Chen was slightly puzzled: "What does Sister Dugu mean?"

"To fulfill the contract from back then."

Dugu Feiyan smiled and said, "We agreed back then that we would explore together afterward, but now that we can't get in, why don't we leave it to you? You are his trusted junior brother, and I will find another person for you to form a team and complete the exploration of this cave. How about that?"

Lin Chen looked surprised: "Your senior brother has already given you the token, leaving it to you to do as you please. Why don't you just give it to the people of your Northern Profound Sect?"

Dugu Feiyan smiled and said, "I just said that since we made a contract back then, we should abide by it and keep our word. What, you're not willing?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Of course not. This kind of opportunity is so rare that you can't ask for it even if you want it. Why would I not want it?"

"Isn't that enough?"

Dugu Feiyan immediately made the decision: "Then it's settled. Are you in a rush for your trip?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "No rush. I came here to travel and broaden my horizons, so I have plenty of free time."

Dugu Feiyan nodded: "Then you should stay at the Northern Profound Sect for a few more days until I have finalized my selection, and then I will have him come to you."

Dugu Feiyan tossed the token back to Lin Chen: "You should keep this token yourself."

Since Dugu Feiyan had made herself clear, Lin Chen stopped being coy and readily accepted the token: "Thank you, Sister Dugu!"

Dugu Feiyan laughed and said, "Just call me Sister Yan, it's not so awkward."

"Okay, Sister Yan."

Lin Chen originally thought that Dugu Feiyan was his senior brother's old flame, but now he realized that they were almost. Judging from his senior brother's expression and tone, he must still have some feelings for Dugu Feiyan and be unable to let go of her.

Men, if they like someone but don't get them, it's always a regret and an unforgettable experience.

Lin Chen understands this!
"Sister Yan, if I may ask, you said you almost became lovers with my senior brother, what ultimately stopped you two?"

Dugu Feiyan chuckled: "Is this what he wants to ask, or what you want to ask?"

Lin Chen replied, "What I wanted to ask was something my senior brother didn't say much to me. It was just out of curiosity. If Sister Yan feels uncomfortable, just pretend I didn't ask."

Dugu Feiyan smiled and asked, "Do you have a Daoist partner or a lover?" Lin Chen replied, "Yes."

Dugu Feiyan nodded: "Your senior brother is a very good person, upright and responsible, and trustworthy. However, sometimes whether people can come together depends on fate..."

Dugu Feiyan's answer was vague, but Lin Chen got a general idea.

It seems that Dugu Feiyan was not heartless towards her senior brother; it was just that some external factors interfered, ultimately preventing the two from being together.

Dugu Feiyan asked, "What is your strength?"

Lin Chen replied, "Mid-stage Earth Immortal."

Dugu Feiyan thought for a moment and said, "How about I arrange for Dugu Ying, who is ranked third on the True Immortal Ranking, to go with you?"

Lin Chen's expression immediately became somewhat subtle.

Dugu Feiyan asked in confusion, "Your expression... you don't want to?"

Lin Chen replied, "I've heard that Dugu Ying is very bloodthirsty and likes to kill women. I only have the strength of an Earth Immortal..."

Dugu Feiyan frowned: "A bloodthirsty nature, a liking for killing women? Who said that?"

Lin Chen replied, "On my way here, I happened to run into Fang Wubing, the Holy Son of Duobao Dao Sect. He had a duel with Dugu Ying, and he mentioned it, but I don't know if it's true or not."

Dugu Feiyan frowned: "The Holy Son of Duobao Dao Sect, such an identity shouldn't be made up. Dugu Ying is actually this kind of person?"

Lin Chen asked, "Sister Yan, you don't know?"

Dugu Feiyan shook her head: "I only know that Dugu Ying is one of the most outstanding representatives of the younger generation of disciples. I don't know anything else about him. I originally wanted to find someone stronger to guide you in order to avoid some dangers, but if that's the case, he is not a suitable candidate."

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief. If Dugu Feiyan really wanted Dugu Ying to go into that secret cave with him, Lin Chen would probably have no choice but to refuse.

Traveling together in a confined space, strangers of vastly different strengths, facing the potential treasures within the cave, who can guarantee they won't harbor malicious intentions?
Dugu Ying ranks third on the True Immortal Ranking, and his true combat strength is definitely at the Golden Immortal level. After all, he is the third-ranked True Immortal in the entire Tianxuan Continent and a representative of the younger generation of disciples of the Beixuan Sect. It would be impossible for such a person not to have powerful magic weapons or the ability to transcend realms!
Although Lin Chen also possessed the ability to transcend realms, he did not believe he could withstand Dugu Ying.

Everyone has their own tricks up their sleeve.

Dugu Ying's background, his status, and his surname all determine that he has no less good stuff than Lin Chen!
Lin Chen didn't want to mess with someone like that!
