The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2316 She had no choice!
"Why do you look so angry? Did you have a bad chat?"

Lin Chen got up from the couch and looked at Zi Yun with concern.

Ziyun had been invited to the next room for tea by the masked woman, and when she returned, her expression was noticeably off.

Ziyun sighed: "No, I'm just in a bit... annoyed."

Lin Chen reached out and took Zi Yun's hand, pulling her to sit down on a nearby chair. He sat opposite her and smiled, "Tell me about it?"

Ziyun looked at Lin Chen and sighed, "Mi Xiaowan did it voluntarily."

Lin Chen blinked, thought for two seconds, and asked, "You mean her marriage?"

Ziyun nodded: "Yes, it was said that she was sent to be married, but in reality, she was just a commodity sent to apologize..."

Lin Chen raised an eyebrow: "Judging from her appearance, she seems to be someone of considerable importance. Fang Shan'an seems to be quite strong, and those guards are not bad either."

Zi Yun sighed softly, "Mi Xiaowan comes from the Wind and Snow Sect. The Wind and Snow Sect is probably stronger than the Three Saints Sect of the Divine Fall Immortal Domain. In terms of status, she is indeed not low. She is the great-granddaughter of the sect master of the Three Saints Sect."

"The story is a bit long, but to put it simply, the Wind and Snow Sect of Donghuang and the Illusion Moon Sect of Beihai had a conflict, and he killed an inner disciple of the Illusion Moon Sect, which caused trouble."

"This inner disciple wasn't actually an important figure, but it gave the Illusion Moon Sect a reason to forcefully descend upon the Snowstorm Sect, presenting a series of compensation lists and stating that the Snowstorm Sect should either pay compensation or start a war, with the consequences to be borne by themselves."

"The strength of the Illusion Moon Sect is far beyond that of the Snowstorm Sect. They are simply powerless to resist and have no choice but to accept it and agree to compensate according to the list."

"Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Mi Xiaowan, but unfortunately, Mi Xiaowan happened to be returning from running errands and ran into the Illusion Moon Sect's group that came to claim compensation. Then she caught the eye of Lin Yuanyi, the young sect leader of the Illusion Moon Sect, and was temporarily added to the compensation list."

"The sect leader of Fengxue Sect, who is also Mi Xiaowan's grandfather, originally disagreed, but the other party threatened that if he did not agree, they would immediately start a war and massacre Fengxue Sect. For the sake of the sect, Mi Xiaowan's grandfather had no choice but to reluctantly agree, but he demanded that Lin Yuanyi marry her, otherwise he would rather die than comply."

"Fang Shan'an is here on behalf of the Wind and Snow Sect to deliver apology gifts to the Illusion Moon Sect. This includes Mi Xiaowan. He was worried that Mi Xiaowan would run away, so he kept a close eye on her along the way and dared not let her have any contact with other men, for fear that something might happen."

Lin Chen sighed softly, "The strong prey on the weak. This is the world of cultivators. What is Mi Xiaowan's attitude?"

Ziyun replied, "Of course she didn't want to, but what could she do? If she didn't give in, disaster would befall the Fengxue Sect. The Fengxue Sect was her home, and naturally she didn't want anything to happen to her family..."

Lin Chen frowned: "So she voluntarily went to the Illusion Moon Sect to marry that damned young sect leader?"

Ziyun smiled bitterly, "If it's really a marriage, then it's alright. The problem is that Lin Yuanyi is not a good person at all. He likes to play with women the most, and countless female cultivators have died at his hands." "His demand for Mi Xiaowan from the Fengxue Sect is not because he fell in love with her at first sight or took a liking to her. He just thinks Mi Xiaowan is pretty and wants to play with her. Once Mi Xiaowan enters the Huanyue Sect, she will probably suffer a fate worse than death."

Lin Chen said in a deep voice, "Mi Xiaowan knows all this, knows the fate she has to face, but she still plans to go to the Illusion Moon Sect?"

She had no choice.

Ziyun's voice held a hint of anger: "She said she had thought about suicide, but if she did, the Illusion Moon Sect wouldn't let the Snowstorm Sect off the hook. They would definitely use this as an excuse to cause trouble, and then she would have died in vain."

"If she dies after entering the Illusion Moon Sect, then it will have nothing to do with the Wind and Snow Sect. She said that even if she dies, she hopes that her death will be worthwhile."

Lin Chen stared into Zi Yun's eyes: "You want to help her?"

Ziyun nodded: "Yes, but we can't afford to offend the Illusion Moon Sect, not to mention the Wind and Snow Sect. It's not as simple as just rescuing people and running away."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "If you want to save Mi Xiaowan, you have to wait until Fang Shan'an hands her over to the Illusion Moon Sect, and the rescue must not be suspected of being the work of the Wind and Moon Sect, right?"

Ziyun looked at Lin Chen apologetically: "I know this is difficult, and if we're not careful, we could get ourselves into trouble..."

Lin Chen interrupted Zi Yun with a smile, his eyes gentle and his voice steady: "What we seek in cultivation is to have our own way of doing things. If we can't stand it, we'll just do it. Haven't we offended enough people already? What's one more Illusion Moon Sect?"

After a pause, Lin Chen added, "Besides, they are in the open, while we are in the dark. We are outsmarting them. As long as the plan is proper, they won't even know who did it, let alone cause us any trouble."

Ziyun stared at Lin Chen with a look of great satisfaction.

He truly is my man!

Stand tall and fearless!

"save?"

Lin Chen gripped Zi Yun's hand tightly: "Save her!"
