The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1292 Forget Your Worries and Await Your Immortal Fate
Lin Chen followed the old man into his house. In the courtyard, an old woman was lying on a bamboo chair, seemingly dozing.

Hearing footsteps, the old woman opened her eyes and looked at Lin Chen. For a moment, her gaze was as sharp as a knife.

Lin Chen's heart skipped a beat. Was the other party checking on his condition?
Lin Chen wasn't too worried, because the technique he was using was taught to him by Qi before they parted.

"You have the Formless Demon Art, which allows you to change your appearance, enough to handle many situations. However, if you cannot conceal your aura and your sword-like bones, all your secrets will be exposed once someone scans you with their divine sense."

"I will teach you a technique to conceal your internal condition. Even if the other party is an immortal, they may not be able to see through your internal condition. You can disguise yourself and make yourself look like an ordinary cultivator."

Before entering the island, Lin Chen had already used his skills to conceal his sword bones. He didn't need to hide his strength, since he was currently disguised as a middle-aged cultivator and it was normal for him to have the strength of the early stage of Void Realm.

In the eyes of these people, the early stage of the Void Realm is nothing special. Lin Chen's act of pretending to be ordinary is simply to hide his identity as the Human Emperor.

The Human Emperor's Seal is also an easily noticeable feature, but after entering the Void Realm, the Human Emperor's Seal has become increasingly acknowledging him, especially after he quelled the war between the demon race and the human race. The Human Emperor's Seal has now completely recognized him.

Now, he has been able to store the Human Emperor Seal as his natal magic weapon in his sea of ​​consciousness, effectively hiding it completely.

The Human Emperor's Scripture is still in the hands of his master and the others. Even if someone searches Lin Chen's spatial ring now, they might find some good things, but they still won't be able to determine his identity from that.

The old woman glanced at him twice, her gaze softening, as if the sharpness he had displayed just moments before was merely Lin Chen's illusion.

She turned her head away and leaned to the other side, seemingly not intending to pay any attention to Lin Chen.

In the instant she turned her head, Lin Chen clearly saw a fleeting look of disdain in her eyes.

Why does she despise herself?
The old man noticed this and said with a wry smile, "Old woman, we have guests. This is not right..."

The old woman ignored her, as if she were asleep.

The old man looked slightly embarrassed and turned his head to say, "This old woman is used to being alone and doesn't like to interact with people. Please don't mind her, young friend."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Senior, you're too kind. It was I who was disturbing you in the first place."

The old man led Lin Chen through a passage to the backyard of the house.

"Please take a seat."

On an antique-style octagonal table in the backyard, the old man took out a tea stove, boiled water, and brewed tea. The tea leaves were lush and green, with a lingering fragrance. As soon as the boiling water was poured in, white steam rose, faintly transforming into the shape of a dragon, and the aroma became even more intense.

"Try it, Immortal Dragon Tea."

Lin Chen arrived here wary of everything, but since the other party had brewed this tea right in front of him, he obviously couldn't refuse to drink it.

Moreover, given Lin Chen's demonstrated strength, if the other party really wanted to do something to him, he would have no way to resist.

Lin Chen picked up his teacup, took a sip, and felt a surge of pure immortal energy flow into his body, making him feel incredibly comfortable.

“Good tea!”

Lin Chen exclaimed, "I have never seen this tea before. Thank you for bestowing this tea upon me, senior."

The old man smiled and said, "This tea is grown in an environment rich in immortal spiritual energy. It is full of immortal spiritual energy and the yield is not much. Although the Wilderness Realm is rich in spiritual energy, it lacks immortal spiritual energy, so it is naturally not available here."

Lin Chen pretended to know nothing and asked, "What is immortal spiritual energy?"

The old man smiled and replied, "It has the same properties as spiritual energy, but is of a higher quality. You can simply understand it as the spiritual energy needed for cultivation by our ancestors in the Immortal Realm. This thing is as common in the Immortal Realm as spiritual energy is in the Wilderness Realm, but it doesn't exist in the Wilderness Realm."

Now that the old man had said all that, Lin Chen immediately asked with a look of surprise and excitement, "So, senior, you are an immortal? Or rather, everyone living on the entire Mystic Immortal Island is an immortal?"

The old man chuckled and said, "I don't count as one. At most, I'd be considered a half-immortal. To be honest, I was originally a cultivator from the Wilderness Realm, just like you. It's just that I arrived a few thousand years earlier than you."

The old man paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Most of the residents in Wuyou Village are similar to me. Of course, there must be immortals on this Misty Immortal Island who can guide us to become demigods and gain long lifespans."

Lin Chen asked excitedly and expectantly, "Where is the immortal? Will I be able to see the immortal?"

The old man held his tea leaves, took a leisurely sip, and smiled, "Of course you can, but there's no rush. Now that you've come to Enchanted Immortal Island and Forget-Worry Village, you should temporarily forget the troubles and worries of the outside world, live a peaceful life for a while, and wait for your destiny."

A predestined connection with immortals?
Lin Chen replied excitedly, "Senior, do you mean I can become an immortal, the kind of immortal who ascends to heaven?"

The old man chuckled, "Everyone has the potential to become an immortal, but whether you can achieve it depends on whether your potential is sufficient. That's up to you..."
