The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 695 A blessing in disguise?

In just three months, he recovered from a frail Nascent Soul stage to the late Golden Core stage; this recovery speed is terrifying.

Lin Chen was well aware of this, of course.

He said that on purpose, just to tease her and at the same time remind Mei Nu that her recovery to such a level was not because she was so powerful, but entirely because he had been pouring cultivation resources into her.

Although Mei Nu's life is in Lin Chen's hands, and Lin Chen can control her life to make her work for him, Lin Chen hopes even more that she can understand that following him will lead to a bright future, and that she can be more proactive in fighting for him and risking her life for him.

Lin Chen laughed and said, "It's good that I didn't eat for nothing, otherwise, wouldn't I have lost out?"

Mei Nu smiled at Lin Chen and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

If she could still throw a tantrum at Lin Chen when she thought she might die, after consuming so many spiritual medicines and enjoying the divine growth package from the Life-Giving Pearl and the Water-Fire Mirror, she quickly completed the fusion and returned to the late Golden Core stage. Mei Nu was now extremely excited and regarded Lin Chen as her divine master.

Having already tasted the sweetness of success, her biggest fear now is offending Lin Chen.

Such a change can happen in just three months; what about three years, thirty years, or three hundred years?
She had previously reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage and was stagnant, but now she saw hope for breaking through to the next level!

She used to consider her previous experience as the worst thing that had ever happened, but now she has a feeling that it might be a great opportunity in her life.

How can Sai Weng lose his horse and know that it is not a blessing?

In three months, she consumed so many spiritual herbs that she lost count.

Anyway, Lin Chen left all the seeds aside. The effects of the Life-Giving Pearl and the Water-Fire Mirror were still in effect, and the spiritual herbs quickly matured. Mei Nu then stretched out her vines to devour these relatively ordinary spiritual herbs, and then planted the spiritual herb seeds herself, waiting for them to mature.

She would wisely leave the more valuable medicinal herbs with longer growth cycles for Lin Chen. When some needed to be picked and harvested, she would use vines as tendrils to complete the process and then place them in the medicine box that Lin Chen had placed next to him, just like a qualified herbalist.

Lin Chen looked at the pile of medicine boxes, checked them over, and couldn't help but show an excited expression on his face.

Although these medicinal herbs are far inferior to the Nine-Leaf Ginseng and the Nine-Grade Lotus Platform, they are older and more numerous, so their value is certainly not low.

Selling all these spiritual herbs should net me a hundred thousand or so spirit stones, enough to buy several pieces of Xuan Tie Wu Jing.

Most importantly, I haven't been involved in anything during this time, so isn't this a freebie?

"Master, there's not much spiritual energy left in the Water-Fire Mirror. In these last few days, we've been relying entirely on the spirit-gathering array here to absorb spiritual energy from outside..."

Lin Chen was also helpless, after all, these spiritual herbs require a lot of spiritual energy to grow, and his strength was leisurely, and the spiritual energy stored in the Water-Fire Mirror was also limited.

Let's take a trip to Xuefeng.

While we're at it, let's send some elixirs to the Snow Dragon Leopard King and give him a little "sugar-coated bullet."

Lin Chen's gaze fell on the Vajra Vine beside him: "You're so big, how am I supposed to take you with me?" "My main body can go with you. These growing vines are just an appearance, they're not important. When your strength is high enough and your spiritual energy is abundant, your main body will take root and sprout instantly, and you can grow as long as you want."

As Mei Nu spoke, the luster of the entire lush green Vajra vine instantly dimmed, and at the base of the Vajra vine, a 20-centimeter-long Vajra vine seedling sprouted from the soil.

Although this Vajra Vine seedling is small, its color is so deep and vibrant green that it seems frozen solid, and its entire body gleams with a strange luster, giving it a metallic, black-gold feel.

Mei Nu floated up and landed on Lin Chen's palm: "When you need to fight, just drop me on the ground."

Looking at the 20-centimeter-long body, Lin Chen laughed and said, "Isn't it true that concentrated essence is the best? It's quite convenient to carry you around like this."

With Mei Nu by his side, Lin Chen made a trip to the Xuanbing Mountain Range.

When the Snow Dragon Leopard King saw Lin Chen again, it was overjoyed and cooperated perfectly to charge the Water-Fire Mirror. Lin Chen then gave it a bunch of spiritual herbs.

The Snow Dragon Leopard King's eyes widened in astonishment.

When Lin Chen was about to leave, the Snow Dragon Leopard King seemed somewhat reluctant to part with him, following behind him and seeing him off for a long distance before turning back.

There's drama!
It seems that if we come a couple more times and deliver more spiritual fruits, perhaps the Snow Dragon Leopard King will succumb to the "sugar-coated bullets" made of countless spiritual herbs.

Upon returning to Flying Waterfall Peak, Lin Chen began to focus on cultivating the Three-Foot Sword Curtain.

Ten days later, Lin Chen appeared at Qiao Wei's residence.

Qiao Wei was lounging on a soft chair, basking in the sun. When she saw Lin Chen come in, she smiled and said, "It's been months, and you've finally decided to come visit your senior sister?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "I have to make some progress before I dare to come."

Qiao Wei asked lazily, "Have you learned it?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Mm."

Qiao Wei smiled and said, "Three and a half months. Although the second stage is more difficult, it's still slower than your first time."

Lin Chen explained, "For the past three months, I was in seclusion, taking pills and cultivating. I also went to a secret realm and was delayed for a few days. I only had ten days to actually learn the Three-Foot Sword Curtain."

"Ten days?"

Qiao Wei suddenly sat up in her chair, looking at Lin Chen with a shocked expression: "You mastered the second stage in just ten days?"
