The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 663 This isn't an adventure, you're here to buy goods!

After parting ways with the Snow Dragon Leopard King, Lin Chen left the Xuanbing Mountain Range and, after thinking for a moment, flew westward.

Lin Chen suddenly missed the strange beast Lightning Sable that he had given to Chu Jiaxue. If it were here, he wouldn't have to wander around like a blind fly.

When Lin Chen and Situ Xiu were chatting, they mentioned the Lightning Sable. Situ Xiu told Lin Chen that the Lightning Sable was intelligent, easy to tame, and had considerable fighting power. More importantly, the Lightning Sable had an amazing sense of smell and was best at finding medicinal herbs in the mountains and fields.

With the Lightning Sable by Chu Jiaxue's side, it might be able to help her a lot.

It's good that the good stuff stays in the family!

Lin Chen flew at low altitude, searching for medicinal herbs and other valuable items along the way.

There aren't many spiritual herbs like the Nine-Leaf Ginseng and the Nine-Rank Lotus Platform that require eight hundred or even a thousand years to mature. Most spiritual herbs and fruits only need a few years or a few decades to grow. With the Life-Giving Pearl, they can be fully matured in just a few hours.

What others consider immature and worthless spiritual herbs are not a problem for Lin Chen. Even if it is just a seedling, as long as he encounters it, he can quickly turn it into a mature spiritual herb.

Lin Chen traveled at a leisurely pace, stopping frequently along the way, and reaped a rich harvest.

Although top-grade spiritual herbs like the Nine-Rank Lotus Platform are very rare, and most are of similar quality to the Crimson Blood Fruit, their sheer quantity makes up for it.

If Lin Chen were to take out the spiritual herbs from his spatial ring, the quantity and quality of them would surely scare a lot of people.

This isn't an adventure, this is a shopping trip!

Just as Lin Chen put a ripened black-spotted golden thread fungus into the box and returned it to his spatial ring, a loud bang suddenly came from the distant sky. Looking back, he saw a dazzling light, like fireworks, appearing in the distance and lingering for a long time.

Lin Chen's pupils contracted slightly, a distress signal that could be seen for miles around, allowing nearby people to approach and offer assistance.

Lin Chen hesitated for a moment, but in the end he still took off on his sword and flew down towards the place where the fireworks were blooming.

Completely ignoring someone in distress is ultimately impossible. Observe from a distance first, and if you can help, then help; if you can't, then run away.

Flying on his sword, it wouldn't take long to cover dozens of miles. After getting close, Lin Chen lowered his altitude and slowed down, gradually closing in on the enemy.

The distress signal came from a huge valley. When Lin Chen arrived at the valley, he found that a large group of rescuers had already gathered there, looking around and searching for the person in distress.

Lin Chen's eyes swept across the crowd, and when he saw the figure dressed in white, looking like an immortal, his gaze paused slightly.

Su Mubai.

I never expected to run into her here again.

Standing beside Su Mubai was a handsome man, none other than Murong Feng, Su Mubai's persistent suitor. He was dressed in a flowing blue robe, exuding an extraordinary elegance. "Spread out and search. Don't stray too far, and don't act alone."

The one who issued the command was an old man with white hair. He floated in mid-air, and his unique flying style demonstrated his strength at or above the Nascent Soul stage, because only those who have reached the Nascent Soul stage can fly with their physical bodies.

Seeing that so many people were helping, Lin Chen realized he didn't need to do anything himself, so he prepared to observe from a distance. However, just as he landed on the mountain peak and peered out, the white-haired old man suddenly turned his head and looked sharply at Lin Chen's location.

Who's hiding there?

Lin Chen was immediately embarrassed.

Your senses are way too sensitive.

Helpless, Lin Chen could only fly up on his sword and descend directly into the valley.

Landing in front of the white-haired old man, Lin Chen cupped his hands in greeting: "Lin Chen, a disciple of Flying Waterfall Peak, came to check after seeing the distress signal."

The white-haired old man sized up Lin Chen and nodded, saying, "Stay with the others and don't wander off. Something's strange about this place."

Lin Chenggong agreed, then landed down towards the crowd.

When Su Mubai saw Lin Chen, a look of surprise appeared on his usually aloof face: "Lin Chen, you're here too?"

Before Lin Chen could answer, he felt a sharp gaze from the side, full of scrutiny and suspicion.

Lin Chen sighed inwardly. Needless to say, that gaze definitely came from that sycophantic Murong Feng.

Although Lin Chen had no intention of getting involved in trouble, he and Su Mubai had a completely innocent relationship. It wouldn't be right for him to ignore Su Mubai when she greeted him, would it?
Besides, he had saved Su Mubai, so Murong Feng should be thanking him, shouldn't he?
Lin Chen smiled and said, "Yes, we happened to be nearby. We saw the distress signal and came to check it out."

Murong Feng looked at Lin Chen suspiciously, then turned his head and asked, "Junior Sister Su, do you know him?"

Su Mubai hesitated slightly. She knew Murong Feng's temperament very well and was considering how not to cause trouble for Lin Chen.

Although she didn't like Murong Feng, she couldn't stop him from pursuing her relentlessly, nor could she stop him from targeting others.

You can't just kill him because he likes you.

Lin Chen smiled slightly: "I was being chased by a snow dragon leopard before, and Miss Su happened to be passing by and helped me kill the snow dragon leopard, which was a great help to me..."
