The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 881 Forcibly Carving Out a Path to Advancement

"That's pretty much it..."

Lin Chen recounted everything in person again, and then humbly said, "If the Human Emperor really was hiding nearby, even if I didn't intervene, he certainly wouldn't stand idly by and would definitely step in to save Giant Wave City. So, it's best not to mention my intervention..."

The hall was completely silent.

Chu Jiaxue sat down next to Lin Chen, looking at him with tender eyes.

Lin Chen didn't reveal his reason for taking action, but she guessed it.

Admittedly, Lin Chen couldn't bear to see the people of this city die at the hands of demonic beasts, but the main reason he was so desperate to protect the city was because it was Penglai, and the city lord was from the Xuanfeng Sect.

Lin Chen simply extended his affection to the house because of its owner.

She turned her head and looked at Gu Yuexi with delight in her eyes.

Five elements spirit body!

Xiao Xi is actually a Five Elements Spiritual Body, and she has already reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage. This is truly wonderful.

With so many changes, the three of them were already bound together and could not be separated. In this unfamiliar world of cultivation, the three of them could almost be said to depend on each other for survival, and each of them was the most important person in the other's heart.

Chu Jiaxue no longer talks about relationships. After going through so many hardships, the three of them have finally come together safely and have each achieved considerable success, which is already very good.

What's there to worry about?

What are you still worried about?

She reached out and took Gu Yuexi's hand. The two looked at each other, and all their grudges vanished in that one glance.

The tall, silent man suddenly laughed and said, "Mr. Lin, you are amazing! With your Nascent Soul stage, you were able to withstand a fully-formed demon and even make it faint. I'm very curious about how you did it. Can you tell me?"

Lin Chen's gaze fell on the man: "And who is this?"

The man smiled and introduced himself: "Penglai, Diyuan Sect, An Ziwu."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "These little tricks to save your life are nothing to brag about."

An Ziwu's eyes showed a hint of disappointment, but he hid it well and smiled, "I'm sorry, I'm just a very curious person, I was presumptuous."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry about it."

After chatting for a while and answering Chen Meifeng's questions, Lin Chen said goodbye to Chu Jiaxue and Gu Yuexi and left.

"Let's go for a walk." "Okay."

The three of them left the city lord's mansion, went directly out of the city, and landed on a scenic mountain not far away.

Lin Chen took out three reclining chairs and placed them on the ground. Chu Jiaxue couldn't help but laugh: "You've prepared quite a few reclining chairs."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I'm always on the go, so it's good to have everything prepared. Whoever can sit can stand, and whoever can lie down can sit."

Chu Jiaxue lay down and laughed, "You seem to be living a good life. My life is so boring. All I do is cultivate, and I've never even left the house."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Yueyue is the same. When I went to see her, it was her first time going out for training, but she fell into the demon king's trap, and even the sect's supreme elder died..."

Gu Yuexi laughed, "Sis, thank goodness Brother Chen came, otherwise I would definitely be doomed. The Crimson Dragon King chased us for a long time, and we almost didn't escape..."

Chu Jiaxue looked at Lin Chen in surprise: "You actually have the ability to fight the Demon King?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "What kind of battle is this? It's just running for your life, running the whole way without daring to look back..."

Chu Jiaxue was amused: "Being able to escape from the Demon King is not something everyone can do. Anyway, we still have plenty of time. Tell me what happened after I left."

"Row!"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Speaking of which, I also have to thank you for the text message you sent me before you left. After receiving the message, I went to that place where summer and winter are reversed..."

Lin Chen recounted his entire experience, telling everything except for the Human Emperor Seal, including the fact that his father was the heir to the Demon Emperor.

Chu Jiaxue listened, mesmerized, and finally sighed softly, "You're amazing! You have no special talent, yet you managed to carve out a path to advancement. In such a short time, you've acquired such strength..."

Lin Chen joked, "Perhaps my talent is luck. At least along the way, I've always been lucky. I've always managed to escape death and, before facing a powerful enemy, I've always managed to acquire some means to deal with them and then escape."

Chu Jiaxue chuckled: "That's not wrong. Luck is actually very mysterious and terrifying. A true chosen one could find an ancient treasure just by walking down the street or picking up some trash..."

"I'm not that magical. Everything I have is earned by risking my life."

When Lin Chen talked about finding treasures, he suddenly remembered something and took out the flag he had casually picked up at the Demon Emperor's Tomb last time.

"Speaking of finding treasures, I just remembered that the magical artifacts in the Demon Emperor's Tomb were flying everywhere. I was far away, but I managed to grab one. I studied it for a bit at the time, but I couldn't figure it out. Later, I went back and was busy refining the sword bone and stuff, so I forgot about it."

Lin Chen placed the flag in front of the two men and said with a smile, "Although you two rarely leave your homes, you've read many classic texts from your sects. Help me take a look and see what this is and how to use it."
