The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 548 One Step to the Peak?
wife?

Lin Chen suddenly turned his head, a look of confusion in his eyes.

His legal wife is Chu Jiaxue, who has been missing for half a year. Most importantly, she is an ordinary person who has never cultivated. How can she assassinate Guo Tang?

Who is impersonating his wife?

Without Lin Chen's instructions, Zhou Yitian had already inquired about the details of the matter and hung up the phone after a long while.

"Mr. Lin, Guo Tang was assassinated. Well, it's not quite an assassination. Although the assailant sneaked into the sect and found Guo Tang, they appeared openly and claimed to be your wife, named Chu Jiaxue..."

Lin Chen's eyes widened in surprise: "Are you sure you're not mistaken, Chu Jiaxue?"

Zhou Yitian nodded: "That's right, I just specifically asked, it is indeed Chu Jiaxue, in her twenties, very beautiful..."

Did Chu Jiaxue assassinate Guo Tang?

Lin Chen found it unbelievable; what was going on?

"The results of it?"

Once Lin Chen confirmed that the assassin was indeed Chu Jiaxue, his heart leaped into his throat. Wasn't it like a lamb entering a tiger's den for her to assassinate Guo Tang?
"Both sides suffered heavy losses. Chu Jiaxue escaped while other experts from the sect were arriving. Guo Tang is currently in seclusion to heal his injuries."

Lin Chen's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief: "A lose-lose situation?"

Zhou Yitian's face also showed undisguised shock. Clearly, he was also shocked by the news. After the shock, he suddenly felt relieved.

Lin Chen, in his twenties, is a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm, easily defeating me. Lin Chen's wife, also in her twenties, actually managed to fight Guo Tang to a standstill. What kind of extraordinary couple are they?
Lin Chen has just left Kunlun Mountain. If the couple joins forces, will the Five Dragons Sect still have a chance to survive?
I met Lin Chen first, and no matter what happened, I have now finally joined Lin Chen's side. Can this be considered a blessing in disguise?
"Yes, it is said that Guo Tang was seriously injured, and Chu Jiaxue was also injured, but compared to Guo Tang, it was not considered serious."

Was Guo Tang's injury more serious than Chu Jiaxue's?
Doesn't this mean that Chu Jiaxue is more capable than Guo Tang?

Lin Chen felt like he had heard an exaggerated joke. Half a year ago, Chu Jiaxue was just an ordinary person. Half a year later, she was on par with Guo Tang.
One step to the peak?
Lin Chen didn't have time to ask Zhou Yitian any more questions. He took out his phone, turned it on, and dialed Chu Jiaxue's number directly.

"Sorry, the number you dialed is currently switched off."

Lin Chen put down his phone, his gaze unreadable.

It really is Chu Jiaxue!

Previously, attempts to contact Chu Jiaxue were unsuccessful, but now her phone is switched off, which means she has indeed returned.

Lin Chen was overjoyed. How could Chu Jiaxue have suddenly become so powerful?

Could it be true, as my aunt said, that she was taken to an unknown place?
Aside from the miraculous methods of cultivators in blessed lands, Lin Chen couldn't think of anyone with such great ability to turn an ordinary person into a super master in just half a year! Chu Jiaxue went directly to Guo Tang because she heard that she was wanted by the Five Dragon Order?

Stand up for yourself?
While moved, Lin Chen's feelings became quite complicated.

After thinking for a moment, he dialed his aunt Feng Yazhen's number again. She had been in Xi'an and might have more information.

"Oh, you've finally appeared!"

Feng Yazhen's surprised voice rang out through the microphone, and then her next sentence stunned Lin Chen.

"Chu Jiaxue has come to see me!"

Lin Chen asked in surprise, "What does Jiaxue want with you?"

Feng Yazhen replied, "She came directly to our door, asking if we knew your whereabouts, saying she couldn't contact you. I told her everything about you, and then she left. We don't know where she went. You should contact her as soon as possible."

"could not be reached."

Lin Chen smiled wryly, "Her phone is off. I just got word that she went to the Five Dragons Sect to kill Guo Tang, but they both suffered heavy losses. I don't know where she is now..."

Feng Yazhen's voice suddenly rose eight octaves: "Kill Guo Tang? A lose-lose situation? You mean Chu Jiaxue? Did I hear that right?"

"You heard right, I was shocked too, but it's true."

Lin Chen suddenly came to his senses: "Auntie, you said you told her everything, what do you mean by 'everything'?"

Feng Yazhen said righteously, "Everything, including what happened between you and Xiaoxi, and what happened when Xiaoxi was sent to Cangshan Cave..."

Lin Chen couldn't hold back any longer: "You already said it?"

Feng Yazhen snorted, "Why don't you say it? Xiaoxi is right. You're good in every other way. Being responsible in relationships is a good thing, but you're ultimately a bit soft-hearted and indecisive. So, I'm speaking up for you to avoid any messy entanglements between you two."

Lin Chen was quite embarrassed: "What did she say?"

Feng Yazhen shook her head: "She didn't say anything. At first, she said she could make way for you and Gu Yuexi, but after I exposed her true feelings, she was caught in a dilemma. I advised her that you are not ordinary people and you don't need to use ordinary laws or standards to restrain yourselves. Since you like each other, don't torture each other. I think she listened to me. As for what decision she made in the end, I don't know."

If you like each other, why torture each other?

Lin Chen's heart stirred. Yes, even Chu Jiaxue has become a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm. In the future, everyone may embark on the path of cultivation. Why can't we travel together?
