The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2543 Talking nonsense, successfully fooling people!
Poseidon Island, Cloud Sail City.

Wei Family Manor.

Lin Chen stood at the door and addressed the guards: "Chen Fan, a disciple of the Sea God Sect, has come to pay respects to Patriarch Wei on the recommendation of Steward Ku Tuo Hai Sang Dao Qing."

Soon, Lin Chen was led into the manor and arrived at the hall along the wide bluestone avenue.

Wei Mingxuan, the head of the Wei family, sat in his seat and sized up Lin Chen: "You say you were recommended by Sang Daoqing, what proof do you have?"

Lin Chen took out the image-recording stone given to him by Sang Daoqing: "Steward Sang asked me to give this to the head of the family."

Wei Mingxuan reached out and the image-recording stone flew into his hand.

Wei Mingxuan checked the recording stone and left calmly.

Lin Chen waited calmly.

Lin Chen's appearance had changed slightly. His complexion was much darker, he had grown a beard, and his hairstyle had also changed. These changes were not obvious, but when combined, they made a huge difference from the past.

Lin Chen had met Wei Deyuan and others before, but it was only a brief encounter. Now that his image has been adjusted, even if he were to run into Wei Deyuan again, Wei Deyuan might not recognize him.

Soon, Wei Mingxuan returned to the living room with a smile on his face.

"Sang Daoqing said you are a genius at alchemy, mastering the refining of the White Bone Jade Algae Pill in just three days. Can you refine the White God Pill?"

Lin Chen replied, "Okay."

Wei Mingxuan's eyes lit up: "I'll have someone prepare the necessary ingredients for the White God Pill right away. If you can successfully refine it, you can become a senior alchemist in my Wei family, with generous benefits..."

"it is good!"

Lin Chen readily agreed, his expression confident.

Soon, Lin Chen was led to a pill-making room where all the medicinal herbs had been prepared. Wei Mingxuan was present, along with another white-haired old man.

Lin Chen calmly began his training, his movements fluid and graceful, which made the white-haired old man's eyes light up.

When the White Divine Pill successfully flew out of the furnace and landed on the silver plate, the white-haired old man exclaimed, "Excellent! Patriarch, this refining technique is extremely skillful. There are some aspects that I am not as good as. This is a true talent!"

Wei Mingxuan laughed heartily: "To receive such praise from you, Old Zhou, you must be a master of alchemy. Alright, from now on, Chen Fan, you are a senior alchemist of my Wei family."

Lin Chen cupped his hands in thanks: "Thank you, Patriarch. I still have a favor to ask..."

Wei Mingxuan was in a good mood, after all, for the Wei family, a powerful alchemist was much more useful than a master.

"Speak!" Lin Chen cupped his hands and said, "I want to ask for a certain medicinal herb."

Wei Mingxuan frowned: "What medicinal herbs?"

Lin Chen answered frankly: "Hidden Divine White Jade Stem."

Wei Mingxuan thought for a moment, then turned to ask the white-haired old man, "Old Zhou, do we have this kind of medicinal herb in our warehouse?"

The white-haired old man replied, "This Hidden Divine White Jade Stem has a special use and is extremely rare. We don't have any in our warehouse, but as far as I know, the Yuwen family has quite a large piece..."

Wei Mingxuan turned his head and asked, "What do you need this Hidden Divine Jade Stem for?"

"Repay the favor!"

Lin Chen replied calmly, "The reason I have the alchemy skills I have today is because I met a reclusive alchemy master by chance. He taught me alchemy but did not acknowledge me as his disciple. I once asked him how I could repay him, and he said that if I ever came across a Hidden Divine White Jade Stem, I should collect some for him, and that would be my way of repaying him."

“I have always wanted to repay his kindness in teaching me, but I have never had the chance. The Wei family has connections everywhere, and I think they will definitely be able to find the Hidden Divine Jade Stem. Of course, I am willing to help the Wei family refine pills. I don’t need any other benefits. I just want the Hidden Divine Jade Stem.”

Wei Mingxuan's eyes lit up: "Where is your master?"

Lin Chen shook his head and said, "He lives in seclusion, so I cannot reveal his location."

Wei Mingxuan didn't doubt it, after all, the immortal realm was so vast, there were far too many cultivators who chose to live in seclusion and avoid the world.

"You are indeed loyal and righteous..."

Wei Mingxuan turned to the white-haired old man: "Old Qin, I don't know much about medicinal herbs. If I ask the Yuwen family for this, will they give it to me?"

Lin Chen quickly interjected, "I don't need too much, just a portion the size of two fists will be enough."

The white-haired old man chuckled, “If you want it all, they might not give it to you. But if you only want a small portion, patriarch, the Yuwen family will definitely be willing. After all, I’ve heard that their Hidden Divine White Jade Stem is quite large, about the size of a jar…”

Wei Mingxuan smiled and said, "That's good. Chen Fan, you can stay in my Wei family with peace of mind and focus on alchemy and cultivation. In three months, I will go to the Yuwen family and ask for the Hidden God White Jade Stem for you."

Lin Chen was overjoyed and quickly bowed, saying, "Thank you, Patriarch. I will do my best to refine pills and repay your great kindness."

Wei Mingxuan smiled slightly: "What I admire most is a person who knows how to repay kindness. Do a good job, and my Wei family will not treat you unfairly!"

Lin Chen said loudly, "Yes, Patriarch!"
