The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1171 I'm a tycoon too, no doubt about it!
Having confirmed that someone wanted to kill him, Lin Chen left the commercial airship and traveled across the continent on his own in a shuttle-shaped airship.

From Xihouzhou, to Nanyuzhou, and finally to Donghuangzhou.

Lin Chen originally intended to visit Gu Yuexi on the way, but because he still had the mark on his body, he decided not to go for the time being, so as not to bring any disaster to her.

Although Fairy Xuanji could not erase the mark left by the caster at the cost of his life, she told Lin Chen that the mark would wear off over time and would not last forever, probably only for a year and a half, or even less.

After passing through the cities near Cangshan, Lin Chen entrusted the Chamber of Commerce to deliver a jade slip to Cangshan.

The jade slip contained words from Gu Yuexi's parents and a message from him. Presumably, seeing that he had met her parents and given them various elixirs to ensure their health and longevity would put her at ease.

Lin Chen continued eastward, speeding along the way, while waiting for the assassin to arrive.

To Lin Chen's surprise, the assassins did not appear until Lin Chen arrived in Donghuang Prefecture.

Could it be that they failed to catch up with me?

The two-month delay on the road has faded the markings considerably, but they are still there. Judging from the current situation, it will probably take at least another three to five months for them to completely disappear.

There is a city called Wanjue near Wanjue Mountain, so Lin Chen settled down there. He also entrusted the Chamber of Commerce to send a jade slip to Chu Jiaxue, telling her that the old man had been taken to Hengshan in Nanyue by him.

It was early July, and there were still two weeks until the Spirit Medicine Trading Festival on the fifteenth of July.

Many cultivators were present in Wanjue City, indicating that many of them were participating in the trade festival and had arrived early to settle in Wanjue City.

Lin Chen came with a huge sum of money this time, prepared to spend a lot of it.

The goods from the Three Ghosts Sect have all been disposed of, and Lin Chen has also disposed of most of the contents of the five-tenths treasure vault of the White Stone Mountain Cave Heaven, obtaining a total of approximately 500 million spirit stones.

Definitely a super-rich tycoon.

Besides spirit stones, Lin Chen also brought a lot of high-quality magic treasures, such as those seized from the immortal slaves, the primordial spirits of the Void Realm experts from the White Stone Mountain Cave Heaven, and those from the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect. In short, it's always good to prepare more items for trade.

What if someone wants a powerful magic weapon but not spirit stones?
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Mount Wanjue has a flat area stretching for several miles on its mountainside. It was forcibly carved out by a powerful being using great methods. The ground is paved with white jade bricks, and the edges are all lined with white jade railings. The railings are carved with various mythical beasts, dragons coiled around phoenixes, and qilin striding with their heads held high, exuding a magnificent aura. Wide wooden tables are set up in the white jade plaza, each table serving as a stall for anyone participating in the trade festival to set up a stall and sell the various spiritual herbs they have brought.

Located against the mountain at Baiyu Square stands a palace-like building, the auction house for the trade fair. It is an architectural marvel, situated here to serve all participants in the trade fair.

If you have a highly valuable elixir and are worried that it won't be seen by a buyer who needs it, thus preventing you from getting a good price, you can apply to have it auctioned.

There are two requirements for entering the auction process. First, the medicinal herbs must be of a certain high quality and price. You can't just put any low-end medicinal herbs up for auction, that would only make you a laughing stock. Second, you need to pay 10% of the auction proceeds as a handling fee.

The entire area is surrounded by an array. All cultivators who want to enter must pass through the identity identification array at the main gate. The main function of this array is to distinguish between humans and demons.

The demons refused entry.

Who knows if you, a demon, will cause trouble here?

What if you go inside and immediately self-destruct? Wouldn't everyone be doomed?
Fairy Xuanji transmitted her voice: "I won't go in. I'll wait for you outside. Otherwise, passing through the identification array will cause fluctuations in the array and attract attention."

"it is good!"

Lin Chen readily agreed, explaining that the identification array was similar to the security system of an airport in the human world; even if you were invisible, you would still be detected if you entered it.

Lin Chen was not worried about his safety. Apart from his own strength, the trading festival had clear rules that all fighting was prohibited in the trading market. Otherwise, he would be expelled at best, and his cultivation would be abolished or he would be executed at worst.

In the dog-eat-dog world of cultivation, if you don't follow the rules, no one will reason with you.

The trade fair market is also divided into three areas, which are roughly divided according to the value of the items sold: less than one million spirit stones, more than one million but less than ten million, and more than ten million.

The four main ingredients for refining the Great Luo Rejuvenation Pill are Emerald Phoenix Grass, Flawless Fruit, Divine Thunder Heavenly Soul Wood, and Bodhi Blood, each of which is a rare and precious item that is hard to find in the world.

These four main medicinal herbs are all worth over ten million spirit stones. To be precise, they are basically priceless and unavailable. Even though this is a spirit herb trading festival, they may not necessarily be available.

"Go straight to the advanced area. If these medicines are available, they'll definitely be there. Then check the auction house; they'll most likely appear there too, since everyone wants to sell them for a higher price..."
