The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2361 The Sea God Actually Exists?

"set off!"

Gu Yuexi stood excitedly at the bow of the flying boat, stretching out her arms and shouting loudly, like an excited child.

Lin Chen couldn't help but chuckle, but he also understood her excitement, since she hadn't left the island for almost twenty years since arriving at Xianxian Island.

For an immortal, twenty years is indeed not a long time; it may pass in the blink of an eye. However, Gu Yuexi grew up in the mortal realm and was accustomed to the bustling and noisy life in the city. This was an ingrained trait that could not be changed simply by experiencing life in the immortal realm later on.

To completely change this, it would probably take thousands of years, until those earliest memories become incredibly blurred.

Although Gu Yuexi followed Lin Chen across the three realms, her upbringing was relatively simple. In Cangshan and Shenmu Palace, she was trained as a core disciple and naturally did not suffer much hardship. As a result, she retained her lively personality.

Lin Chen joked, "Xiao Xi, judging by your enthusiasm, we look like country bumpkins coming to the city."

Gu Yuexi chuckled and said, "I haven't gone shopping or bought any new clothes in ages. This time I'm going to shop till I drop and have a blast!"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "That's right. It's been a long time since we last stayed on the island. Let's take a good look around this time."

After a few lighthearted banter, the group began discussing the sectarian conflict.

"Brother Chen, who do you think will win this conflict between the Three Religions and the Sea God Sect?"

Lin Chen sat cross-legged on the flying boat and casually replied, "How would I know? Although the three sects are powerful, the Sea God Sect is the largest sect in the North Sea with countless followers and many strong individuals. Who can say for sure who will win or lose?"

Gu Yuexi had a gossipy look on her face: "The three religions have a long history. Their Buddha, Taoist master, and religious leader should all be gone by now, but I heard that the Sea God of the Sea God Sect has always existed..."

Lin Chen was slightly taken aback, then turned his head and asked, "Who told you that?"

"Aunt Lan."

Gu Yuexi replied, "You were all busy at the time, and Xuanji and I were chatting with Uncle Yao and Aunt Lan. We talked about the Sea God Cult, and I casually asked who the Sea God was. I originally thought that the Sea God was an ancient belief like the Buddha, the Taoist, and the cult leader of the three religions. But Aunt Lan told me that the Sea God really exists."

Lin Chen had never asked about this before, so he immediately asked curiously, "The Sea God Cult has existed for a very long time, right? Has the Sea God always been alive?"

Gu Yuexi shook her head: "I don't know about that, but Aunt Lan said that the Sea God Cult exists differently from the three other cults. It's said that the Sea God is born from the faith of its followers, and the more followers there are, the stronger the Sea God becomes. Moreover, once a member of the Sea God Cult reaches a certain status, they can request the Sea God to appear after paying certain conditions. The higher the status of the follower, the greater the price paid, and the stronger the Sea God they can summon." Lin Chen's eyes widened: "Is it that realistic? How much reward do they give, and how big of a fight do they fight? The higher the reward, the more effort they put in?"

Gu Yuexi was amused by Lin Chen's words: "If you pay enough, you can take down an immortal. Haha, that was my first reaction too. I'm also very curious, does asking the Sea God to intervene depend on the price paid to determine the Sea God's projection combat power level?"

Nalan Wushuang couldn't help but chuckle: "Give the standard price, project a peak Daluo Xuanxian; ten times the price, project a peak Daluo Zhixian; a hundred times, a thousand times, directly a Daluo Shixian?"

Lin Chen also became interested in the Sea God Cult, recalling the previous sea attack: "So, the attackers probably weren't from the Sea God Cult after all. Otherwise, even if they encountered resistance, they could have simply summoned the Sea God's projection and sent a peak Grand Luo Immortal to crush the entire Sea King in a matter of minutes, killing everyone without a single one escaping..."

"The white-haired old man who was chasing after them, a Great Luo Immortal, was also severely injured by Senior Liuyun in one move. If he really was from the Sea God Sect, he wouldn't have let himself be beaten to a pulp without asking the Sea God to intervene, would he?"

After a pause, Lin Chen asked curiously, "You just mentioned a price, did you ask what that price is?"

Gu Yuexi shook her head: "I didn't ask in detail."

Lin Chen wasn't disappointed and laughed, "There's no rush. We're going to watch them fight anyway. Even if others don't know, don't the three sects who are going to fight them know? Let's ask them."

The group traveled without delay, flying straight ahead and arriving at Luna Island smoothly after a month and a half.

Moon God Island has countless inhabitants who make a living by farming, mining, fishing, and so on. There are many cities, but the most prosperous one is Moon City, which is near the Moon God Sect.

The conflict between the Three Religions and the Sea God Religion was a clash between the Eastern Empire and the Northern Sea, naturally attracting countless cultivators to watch the battle.

Although it was a battle, it became a major event in Beihai.

Moon City is very large, but all the inns are already overcrowded, and many cultivators have no choice but to live in the wilderness.

Lin Chen and the others were in the same boat. After wandering around the city, they couldn't find a place to stay, so they had no choice but to leave Moon City and land in a desolate valley.

"There are more people than we expected. There aren't even any hotels left. It looks like we'll have to camp out in the middle of nowhere..."
