The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1445: I'm stamping your approval; you're mine now!

Lin Chen's words served two purposes: first, to tell the other party that he was here first and that he did not come here specifically to spy on them; second, to show respect and not to spy on them, and that he would not speak carelessly, as he did not even know who they were, so they did not need to think about killing him to silence him.

That makes sense, but Lin Chen couldn't predict what the other party would do.

In the world of cultivators, strength reigns supreme.

If someone is strong enough, killing themselves to cover up the matter is the first thought of any normal person.

The woman stared at Lin Chen and said, "You said you're a rogue cultivator?"

Lin Chen's heart skipped a beat, but he remained calm on the surface: "Yes."

Having confirmed that he was practicing as a lone cultivator, is this a prelude to attacking him?

The woman sized up Lin Chen: "You seem very young. How old are you?"

Lin Chen casually replied, "Almost forty."

The woman's eyes lit up slightly. Such a young rogue cultivator, yet his strength had reached the level of a Human Immortal. His talent was truly remarkable.

The woman had indeed considered killing Lin Chen, but looking into his clear eyes, a new idea suddenly came to her mind.

"I should have killed you..."

Shouldn't it?

Although Lin Chen felt that this term was debatable, he thought that it was the law of the immortal path where the strong prey on the weak, so he felt relieved and listened calmly.

Judging from his tone, he's not planning to kill me, is he?

"Whether you saw it or not, only you know. But you came first, and I came later. That's a fact, so I'll spare your life."

Lin Chen cupped his hands in thanks: "Thank you for your understanding."

The woman said coldly, "Don't be in such a hurry to thank me. Although I can spare your life, from now on you will have to come with me and do my bidding."

Lin Chen was slightly taken aback, and his brows furrowed slightly.

"servant?"

The woman said coldly, "Yes, don't worry, as long as you do your best for me, I won't treat you unfairly."

Lin Chen shook his head, slowly but firmly: "I don't accept it."

The woman's murderous intent surged, and the mountain crevice instantly became like an ice cave, chilling to the bone.

"You won't accept it?"

Lin Chen said calmly, "Yes, I'm too inflexible; I can't bend my back or legs."

The woman stared coldly at Lin Chen: "Aren't you afraid of death, afraid of your body and soul fading away?"

Lin Chen smiled slightly: "Give me liberty or give me death."

Lin Chen was pale and clearly injured, but his words exuded a vibrant confidence. Lin Chen was, after all, a man, willing to resolve this awkward situation with magnanimity, but that didn't mean he would compromise without any limits.

This woman is very strong, so strong that Lin Chen is no match for her at all. However, Lin Chen possesses a sword aura and the Seven Wonders Palace, so he is not without the power to fight back.

A hint of surprise flashed in the woman's eyes, as if she hadn't expected Lin Chen to possess such pride.

After a few seconds of eye contact, the woman nodded: "Fine, then I'll compromise. I won't be your servant; you'll be my subordinate and work for me. If you still refuse, I'll kill you."

Subordinates?
That doesn't matter.

Being a slave or servant means surrendering your soul and having your life and death controlled by them. But being a subordinate doesn't have this restriction. At worst, you can run away. What can she do to catch you?

Lin Chen sensed the decisiveness in the woman's voice; if he refused again, a fight would truly ensue.

Lin Chen readily agreed.

The woman raised her hand, and a point of light fell towards Lin Chen: "I'm stamping your seal. From now on, you're mine. If you dare to run away, I'll kill you!"

A spiritual imprint!

Lin Chen hesitated slightly, but ultimately did not move.

He only had one sword aura left, and he couldn't waste it. He could always make a move if things really fell out with her later. Besides, the Seven Wonders Palace could isolate all tracking marks, so it wouldn't be a big problem.

The matter is now considered resolved.

Lin Chen inexplicably became the subordinate of a woman of terrifying strength and unknown origin. He asked, "What should I call you?"

The woman's gaze fell on Lin Chen's face, and she remained silent for two seconds before saying, "Ziyun... Fairy."

Lin Chen bowed with a calm expression and said, "Greetings, Fairy Ziyun. Please take good care of me in the future."

Fairy Ziyun looked at Lin Chen: "Never heard of my name?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "I'm just a rogue cultivator, I cultivate alone, I don't know many people at all..."

Fairy Ziyun nodded: "I am traveling alone this time, and there are some things that I need someone to take care of for me. Please do your job well for me, and I will not treat you unfairly."

As they were talking, Fairy Ziyun tossed over a small porcelain bottle: "I see your soul is injured. This is a Divine Jade Pill. Take it and you will recover quickly."

Lin Chen's eyes lit up, and he reached out to catch the porcelain bottle: "Thank you, fairy!"

The Eight-Armed Arhat and Lin Chen are now one in mind and spirit. When he fights against the two Earth Immortals, Lin Chen's soul will naturally suffer a huge impact. Ordinary pills cannot heal this injury, since ordinary pills are for treating physical injuries and not for targeting the soul.

The Divine Jade Pill is a healing pill specifically for the soul, and it is considered a top-tier pill. This single pill is extremely valuable and is basically unavailable on the market!

This Fairy Ziyun is a real tycoon!
Lin Chen's resistance to Fairy Ziyun suddenly lessened considerably.

If a rich person is generous enough, it's not impossible for them to be your subordinate for a while!

Anyway, I'm just wandering around in these Black Rock Mountains, and I might as well be idling around. Besides, isn't the boss my backer?
