The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2645 It's worth it to pay respects to the old man!
Lin Chen's clone continued forward until it reached the house, without encountering any problems.

The cabin was shrouded in a faint barrier, but anyone could tell that the barrier was not very strong.

It's more like a giant umbrella, sheltering the house from the wind and rain.

The clone, fearless and without hesitation, walked straight over, as if stepping into a giant soap bubble.

The barrier still exists, but Lin Chen's clone is now inside it.

Lin Chen's clone stood at the door and pushed open the door to the house.

There's no response inside.

Having come this far, Sun Yixiao no longer hesitated and stepped into the house.

Lin Chen hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward to follow.

He was also very curious about what was in the room. Since he hadn't found any killing moves or traps at this point, he figured there probably weren't any.

The house didn't look very big, but when the two of them went inside, they found it to be very spacious and magnificent. Clearly, there was a spatial array inside the building, somewhat similar to the Seven Wonders Palace.

Upon entering the gate, the two saw a spacious hall. In the center of the hall was a platform several tens of meters high, on which sat an elderly man with white hair, sitting cross-legged, motionless, and showing no signs of life.

Lin Chen and Sun Yixiao exchanged a glance, both of them seeing excitement in each other's eyes.

Is this the fallen Quasi-Saint of the Space System?
"Don't rush, search it first."

"it is good!"

Both of them remained calm. Even though they had seen the spatial ring on the old man's hand, they were able to suppress their excitement and search it first to eliminate any potential dangers.

The two searched the house thoroughly, following its layout, and found quite a few valuable items, such as furniture, ornaments, and decorations.

These things could fetch a lot of spirit stones if taken to the market, but neither Thief Saint Sun Yixiao nor Lin Chen were poor, so they didn't think much of them.

The two returned to the foot of the platform and sized up the man on it.

"It seems whether we'll succeed depends on whether there are any good items in his spatial ring!"

Sun Yixiao was full of anticipation. Although he hadn't found anything good elsewhere, weren't cultivators usually carrying their belongings in spatial rings?
"let me!"

Sun Yixiao stood still and made a grabbing motion in mid-air. Lin Chen felt a blur before his eyes, as if by magic, and the old man's spatial ring on the high platform appeared in Sun Yixiao's hand.

Lin Chen's eyes lit up; this technique was as easy as taking something out of a bag!
Even though the old man on the high platform should be dead and unaware of anything, just sitting there, how did he manage to take out the spatial ring so silently with his fingers interlaced?
After marveling at Sun Yixiao's terrifying methods, Lin Chen felt that he had acted somewhat abruptly.

Did they just attack without even giving a heads-up?
Lin Chen cupped his hands in greeting to the old man on the platform, saying, "Junior Lin Chen greets senior. I have come uninvited, please forgive me."

Sun Yixiao turned his head and smiled, "I've checked, he's been dead for who knows how long, so let's not stand on ceremony."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "This senior is, after all, the host. We've come in uninvited, so it's always good to say hello. Even if the senior can't hear us, we'll feel more at ease, won't we?"

Sun Yi sneered, "It was this spatial turbulence he set up that trapped me for six thousand years and almost killed me. I was already being very polite by not blowing him up directly. I'll take some of his things as compensation for what I did."

As the legendary thief, Sun Yixiao was always elusive and extremely skilled in spatial escape techniques. However, he had been trapped here for six thousand years and almost died here permanently. How could he not be furious?

Lin Chen smiled slightly and said nothing more.

He had no grudge against the powerful figure who had fallen on the high platform. Now that he had intruded into the other party's territory, Lin Chen felt that it was only proper etiquette to pay his respects. After all, the other party was a senior expert, and he was just a young man. What was wrong with paying his respects?

Not a loss!

With a few quick movements, Sun Yixiao broke the restriction on the spatial ring. A sweep of his divine sense revealed his eyes to be bright.

"Looks like there's something good here!"

Sun Yixiao emptied everything out of his spatial ring, clearly indicating that he hadn't been secretly keeping anything for himself.

No matter how it's divided, at least Lin Chen will see and know what he gets, and won't secretly pocket it.

Lin Chen understood Sun Yixiao's meaning, so he watched openly and honestly.

Sun Yixiao picked up something that looked like a rubbing, scanned it with his divine sense, and a look of joy appeared on his face.

"Spatial Turbulence Technique!"

Sun Yixiao raised his head, his expression excited: "This is an extraordinary divine ability. Once mastered, one's strength will be greatly enhanced..."
