The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2978 Wealthy and powerful families are all heartless; I've witnessed it again today!
Lin Chen stared calmly at Zhou Daoyuan: "Have you decided whether to kill or not?"

Zhou Daoyuan smiled wryly: "Fellow Daoist Lin, Uncle Tianlin has lost control of his emotions after losing his son. Please forgive him. It is not convenient for me to keep you here today. Please go back!"

Lin Chen glanced at Zhou Tianlin, whose face was ashen and who remained silent, and said calmly, "I understand the pain of losing your son, but that's only for today. If you want to avenge your son in the future and attack me again, that's fine too. We can settle it again. Anyway, the grievances will be settled and the debts will be paid. No one can escape."

Zhou Daoyuan hesitated, wanting to express his opinion, but he couldn't represent Zhou Tianlin, much less Zhou Daocang's mother; that woman was no simpleton.

This matter is unlikely to end here. I need to inform the head of the family as soon as possible and ask him to stop that woman. Otherwise, things may take an unpredictable turn.

Lin Chen cupped his hands to Zhou Daoyuan and smiled, "This matter has nothing to do with the eldest young master. The eldest young master should just do his own job. As for the rest, we'll see... I've disturbed you, farewell!"

Looking at Lin Chen's calm expression, Zhou Daoyuan felt a sense of admiration.

Putting everything else aside, Lin Chen's courage is unmatched by ordinary people. Not many people would dare to come to the Zhou family to demand an explanation, let alone go to their door to kill them.

Zhou Daoyuan returned the greeting with a cupped hand: "Please!"

Lin Chen turned his head to look at Zhen Liuxue, who casually waved her hand, and three points of light fell into the foreheads of the three people on the ground.

Zhao Pingyang's eyes widened, and his body collapsed to the ground like a wooden stake, instantly losing his life. The other two went limp and fell to the ground, panting heavily, their cultivation crippled.

Lin Chen didn't even glance at the two people on the ground, turned around and left, with Zhen Liuxue gracefully following behind.

Zhou Daoyuan looked at the backs of the man and woman in front of him, who seemed like a divine couple, then turned his gaze back to the two people on the ground in front of him.

Why would he kill one of the three people and spare the other two?

Is this a warning?
He's already killed Zhou Daocang, why would he need to do anything more?

Zhou Daoyuan couldn't understand Lin Chen's intentions, so he gave up trying to figure it out and turned to look at Zhou Tianlin, whose face was cold and gloomy.

"Uncle Tianlin, we should report this matter to the patriarch and ask him to make a decision."

Zhou Tianlin sneered, "If I ask him to make the decision, do you think he'll stand up for my son?"

Lin Chen calmly said, "The Zhou family belongs to everyone, not just one person. In the face of the Zhou family's glory, no one's life is worth anything, including you and me, including the family head!"

"This whole affair started because of Dao Cang. Now that he's dead, the matter is settled. If you want to avenge him and stir up trouble again, that's not impossible, but that can only be your personal act as a father, and you will bear all the consequences!"

Zhou Tianlin sneered, "Powerful families are all heartless, prioritizing family interests above all else. I've seen it all today. Fine, if I cause trouble, I'll pay with my own life, I won't drag you down with me!"

Zhou Daoyuan was not angry. He said calmly, "Uncle Tianlin, you don't need to tell me this. Go home and tell the head of the family yourself."

Zhou Tianlin's brows furrowed slightly, his gaze sharp as he stared at Zhou Daoyuan. Zhou Daoyuan remained calm, meeting his gaze. "Hmph!"

Zhou Tianlin turned around, picked up Zhou Daocang's body, and left.

Zhou Daoyuan sighed as he watched Zhou Tianlin's retreating figure. He then turned to look at the two limp figures on the ground, his gaze turning as cold as a blade.

He took a few steps forward and squatted down in front of the two of them: "Is there anything you want to say?"

Zhao Pingguang's face turned ashen. He never expected Lin Chen to be so ruthless, actually killing the Zhou family and Zhou Daocang right in front of them!

He dared to kill even the Zhou family members and Lin Chen, so what is the Zhao family in his eyes?
He doesn't even care about the Zhou family's revenge, so would the Zhao family dare to retaliate against him?

Do you want your entire race to be wiped out?

Zhao Pingguang pleaded, "Our cultivation has been destroyed, and we are left with only crippled bodies. Please, young master, spare our lives, considering that we were working for the Zhou family and have ended up in such a miserable state..."

Zhou Daoyuan calmly corrected him: "First, you were helping Zhou Daocang, who does not represent the Zhou family. The Zhou family has never instructed you to kill Lin Chen. Second, I have never intended to kill you."

"I remember that your Zhao family still has a few people in the War God's Mansion. Tell me your names, and I'll have someone send you there. But before that, you have to honestly tell me what you've done. I need to report this to the family head and ask him to make a decision."

Zhao Pingguang breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had lost his strength, he was still alive. Who would want to die immediately?
It's better to live a wretched life than to die a glorious death!

"Yes, young master, I will tell you everything honestly and will not deceive you in the slightest."

Zhou Daoyuan nodded: "Very good, someone come..."

A guard strode in, bowed, and obeyed. Zhou Daoyuan instructed, "Take them away, treat their injuries, and record the whole story."

"Yes!"

After the two were taken away, Zhou Daoyuan sat back down, thinking about what had happened, a strange expression appearing on his face.

Lin Chen openly came to Zhou Daocang's door and killed him. Was his reliance on the Palace Master's favor, the fifty great demons, or the peerless woman beside him?
The woman completely ignored Zhou Tianlin's obstruction and killed Zhou Daocang instantly. Just what kind of strength did she have?
What is its origin?
Lin Chen dared to go against the Zhou family disciples and Chen Quan as soon as he arrived at the War God's Mansion. He's a formidable force!

It's a pity I'm constrained by my status, otherwise I really would like to get to know him.

Report to the family immediately and see how the patriarch decides to proceed.

As for Lin Chen, since we'll be working in this area from now on, there will always be opportunities to meet again...
