The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1985: Who would want to be locked up if they could be free?

"You're really that kind of guy?"

The Dark Ancestral Dragon's cold eyes held undisguised mockery: "Don't let your lack of strength fool you, you're quite the schemer. Tell me, what do you want me to do for you this time?"

Lin Chen wasn't embarrassed at all that his thoughts had been seen through.

There is no free lunch in the world!
Even if you are the Dark Ancestral Dragon and incredibly powerful, you have always disliked me, so naturally you won't help me as sincerely as Sister Qi did. In that case, isn't it only natural for me to bargain and make a deal with you?

"Senior is indeed insightful; nothing can be hidden from you."

Dark Ancestral Dragon scoffed at Lin Chen's flattery: "Get to the point, your flattery skills are far inferior to your intelligence."

Lin Chen chuckled and said unhurriedly, "I have a tower, within which is a world of its own, vast and boundless. If you wish, senior, you can settle in the tower. This tower can conceal the secrets of heaven and sever your ties with the other one. In other words, there is no difference between you staying in the tower and staying in this Dragon-Trapping Formation."

"I recently had an idea: to raise a group of giant beasts with ancient bloodlines and have them fight for me. However, although these ancient giant beasts are powerful, they are unruly and difficult to submit to me, a human, because of their bloodlines."

"Senior, you are the Ancestral Dragon. The Dragon Clan was originally the most powerful of all the demon beast races, and you are the most powerful of all the Dragon Clan. Therefore, I would like to ask you to help me stay in the tower and discipline those disobedient fellows, so that they can become warriors and fight for me."

The Dark Ancestral Dragon sneered: "Let me be your puppet and train your demonic beast army?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Senior, why do you say that? What do you mean by puppet? Isn't it quite boring for you to lie here in the void all by yourself? I'll help you find a better environment so you can stretch your body freely and be at ease. Wouldn't that be better? As for taming those demonic beasts, isn't that a piece of cake for you? With your strength, it shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

The Dark Ancestral Dragon sneered: "You've even resorted to provocation. Do you think I'll fall for that?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I am stating the facts, not trying to provoke you. Senior should know that if I want to release you, I have to destroy the Dragon-Trapping Formation on this sword, which is equivalent to destroying the Dragon Roar Sword. This is my best weapon right now, and with your blessing, its power is astonishing."

"By releasing the senior, I am weakening myself. If I can't recover the loss elsewhere, wouldn't I be at a disadvantage?"

Lin Chen spoke eloquently, completely unconcerned about the Dark Ancestral Dragon's mockery.

Let's take our time when discussing business.

He didn't believe the Dark Ancestral Dragon would rather cower in this eternal night-like void than accept his proposed cooperation; after all, it was really no big deal for him. Who would rather be caged than be free?
Although the Linglong Tower cannot compare to the vastness of the outside world, it is still a world in itself, and it is certainly better than this dark void.
As expected, the Dark Ancestral Dragon was tempted.

"Heh, aren't you afraid I'll break out of the tower and escape?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Although I trust you, senior, in order to make everyone get along better and reduce some unnecessary troubles and conflicts, why don't you make a blood oath and stay in the tower peacefully, waiting for me to find a way to sever the ties in the future?"

Dark Ancestral Dragon had dealt with Lin Chen before and roughly knew what kind of person Lin Chen was. No matter what this guy did, safety was always his top priority.

If I don't swear a blood oath, this guy will never release me, even if he doesn't tame those giant beasts.

All he wanted was a safe bet!
Since he dared to let me out, he must have a way to keep me in check.

The Dark Ancestral Dragon was quite displeased. He was clearly powerful enough to burn the brat in front of him to death with a single breath, but he was bound and restrained by the brat with various oaths, making him unable to do anything to him.

How annoying!
Despite his displeasure, Dark Ancestral Dragon was well aware that if it weren't for Lin Chen, given his personality, he would have already perished together with that self-proclaimed righteous and righteous guy, and there would be no way he would have survived.

Although Lin Chen indirectly threatened him, he also saved his life. Most importantly, he prevented Lin Chen from falling into that guy's hands and being killed and devoured by him.

"Alright, if that place is really nice and spacious enough, I don't mind helping you deal with those unruly guys. After all, it can be quite boring to be alone..."

Lin Chen smiled slightly: "You swear?"

Although the Dark Ancestral Dragon was somewhat angry, he had no choice but to follow Lin Chen's instructions and swear another blood oath.

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Then I'll go back. When you see the formation collapse, hurry up and come out. If you hesitate for too long and get trapped in the void, don't blame me."

Inside the exquisite tower, Lin Chen opened his eyes and smiled slightly at Qi beside him: "Sister Qi, he agreed, you can let him out!"
