The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2530 You're a Great Luo Immortal, aren't you being too arrogant?

Shangguan Wenyin's eyes were clear and resolute, meeting Lin Chen's probing gaze without flinching.

A bright smile slowly spread across Lin Chen's face: "You've changed a lot since last time."

Shangguan Wenyin calmly said, "Some things can only be seen through as illusory by personally experiencing, understanding, and discovering them."

Lin Chen readily replied, "Since you've come here to look, it means you have a clue. Where is he?"

Shangguan Wenyin took out a map of the Bitter Sea and pointed to a location in the due north of the map: "Here."

Lin Chen took a closer look and was immediately taken aback. Wasn't this the terrifying deep-water area where the giant turtle was said to be lurking, as Mo Binggang had described?
"Giant turtle?"

Shangguan Wenyin was slightly surprised: "You know about the giant turtle?"

Lin Chen stared at Shangguan Wenyin and said in a deep voice, "I've heard the legend of the giant turtle. Could it be that the previous sect leader was related to this giant turtle?"

Shangguan Wenyin nodded: "Yes, according to the records I found, finding the giant turtle will lead to the previous leader."

Lin Chen smiled wryly, "Since you've researched the literature and know the legends here, you should know that anyone who tries to hunt or encounters the giant turtle is doomed. Our strength is no match for those who hunt giant turtles..."

Shangguan Wenyin laughed and said, "Of course I know that, but if the giant turtle is really related to the previous leader, then I will definitely not die if I encounter the giant turtle."

Lin Chen asked curiously, "Why?"

Shangguan Wenyin replied, "I brought a token from the previous leader. That giant tortoise is so powerful that it is obviously already sentient. If it is really related to the previous leader, then it certainly wouldn't have killed me."

"Even if it has nothing to do with the previous leader, I can still run for my life. I brought an escape magic treasure. Even if that giant turtle has the strength of a high-grade Grand Luo Immortal, I am still confident of escaping."

"Of course, it would be a lie to say there is no risk at all, but if you want to do something, you always have to take some risks."

So you came prepared. Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "You were prepared before you came in here?"

Shangguan Wenyin laughed and said, "Otherwise, what do you think I've been doing all these years since I was thrown in here?"

Lin Chen stroked his chin thoughtfully and said, "After you returned from the sect war, you weren't directly punished. Do you think it's possible that your sect leader discovered what you did, which is why he threw you here and then appointed a new Holy Son?"

Shangguan Wenyin's smile vanished, and he pondered for a few seconds: "If you hadn't reminded me, I really wouldn't have thought of it that way. I had previously thought that the Yuwen family and the Wei family were working together to get me. After all, Wei Deyuan is the vice leader, and he is in charge of the sect war. If he wants to shift the blame, he can only shift it onto me..." "But now that you mention it, I'm not so sure anymore. It's inevitable that the Yuwen family and the Wei family are targeting me. Whether the leader has noticed what I've done, or whether there's any element of going along with it, I don't know."

Shangguan Wenyin paused for a few seconds, then raised his head, his gaze regaining its firmness: "No matter what the truth is, now that I'm here, I'm determined to find out the truth."

Lin Chen asked, "Are you sure you want to go find that giant turtle?"

Shangguan Wenyin's expression was certain: "I'm sure."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Then I'll go with you."

Shangguan Wenyin asked doubtfully, "This matter has nothing to do with you. Even though I've made some preparations, there's still a great risk..."

"At worst, we can just run for our lives!"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I'm not very strong, but I'm the fastest at escaping. How could this not be related to me? My three sects of Donghuang have just settled in Beihai and are being targeted and guarded against by you at every turn, making it difficult for us to develop and advance. If you find the old sect leader and the old and new sect leaders fight, no matter who wins or loses, the Sea God Sect will inevitably be in chaos. At that time, you will be too busy to take care of yourselves, and then our three sects will have room to develop, right?"

Shangguan Wenyin's expression was subtle. This guy was helping him, actually in order to find the old cult leader and cause chaos in the Sea God Cult?

You could have just thought about it in your heart, why did you have to say it out loud!
I am, after all, the Holy Son of the Sea God Cult!
Looking at Shangguan Wenyin's expression, Lin Chen smiled and waved his hand: "Didn't you give me a top-grade cultivation technique? I'm just looking for an opportunity to repay your favor. Besides, you seem quite honest, and I don't want you to die like this."

"If you can find the old leader and defeat the current leader, you will have made a great contribution. In addition, you have already broken through the Carp Dragon Realm and entering the Great Luo Immortal Realm is a foregone conclusion. Wouldn't you be a powerful Holy Son and the next leader? You will be a force to be reckoned with in the North Sea. Isn't this an investment in advance? In the future, when I'm in the North Sea, you can protect me."

Shangguan Wenyin's expression was strange: "Is it really necessary? With Fuyunzi protecting you, are you afraid of being bullied?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Who's afraid of having too many powerful figures? The North Sea is the base of your Sea God Sect. Even the giant you mentioned with his whole body rotting is still a giant. Besides, if you cut off his flesh and clean the wound, he might become even stronger in the future. I'm just taking a risk for a long time and enjoying the benefits for thousands of years."

Shangguan Wenyin was amused by Lin Chen's words: "You're just talking nonsense, are you really going?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Go ahead, it's not easy to find someone you like, I'm afraid you'll just disappear without a trace."

A surge of emotion welled up in Shangguan Wenyin's heart, but he didn't hold back at all: "I am at least a superior-grade Grand Luo Immortal, and you, a mere Grand Luo Profound Immortal, are being a bit too arrogant?"
