The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1572 An Old Friend of the Northern Xuan Sect
Gu Gongyou sat cross-legged on the stone couch, scrutinizing Lin Chen with sharp eyes.

Lin Chen cupped his hands in greeting: "Greetings, Senior Brother Gu."

Gu Gongyou was a middle-aged man with a rather ordinary appearance, but his eyes were quite deep and expressive.

Gu Gongyou asked, "Have you comprehended the Heavenly Sword?"

Lin Chen nodded: "I have fully comprehended it, but my strength is still weak, and I have not yet created my own Heavenly Sword."

Gu Gongyou nodded: "What's your strength?"

"Early stage of Earth Immortal".

Meng Gongxin added, "Uncle-Master Gu, Uncle-Master Lin has only been in the White Crane Immortal Sect for less than eight years. He had just transcended tribulation and become an immortal when he joined..."

"Advanced to Earth Immortal in eight years?"

Gu Gongyou's eyes lit up and he laughed, "Uncle Su's taste is as good as ever!"

Meng Gongxin laughed and said, "Uncle Lin is only in his forties now, and before he ascended, he lived in the desolate world where spiritual energy was scarce..."

Gu Gongyou's eyes shone even brighter, and his gaze toward Lin Chen was filled with increasing admiration: "It seems my junior brother is quite remarkable."

Meng Gongxin smiled and briefly recounted Lin Chen's background and what he did after joining the White Crane Immortal Sect.

After listening, Gu Gongyou looked at Lin Chen with eyes full of surprise and joy.

"Hahaha, may the heavens bless my White Crane Immortal Sect! With such a monstrous junior brother, how could my White Crane Immortal Sect not rise to prominence in the Immortal Realm!"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Senior Brother Gu, you flatter me. My strength is far from sufficient. I came here for two reasons: first, to see you, and second, to ask for your help in infusing the Black Dragon Ring with spiritual energy..."

Gu Gongyou laughed heartily and said, "It's nothing, bring it here!"

Lin Chen handed over the Black Dragon Ring, and Gu Gongyou examined it for a while before laughing, "This is a good thing!"

After Gu Gongyou imbued the Black Dragon Ring with spirit, he handed it back: "My strength is no match for Palace Master Ao of Wanli Palace. Junior Brother, you can make do with it. It will be difficult to deal with Celestial Immortals, but dealing with Golden Immortals should not be a big problem."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "That's enough. I'm just a young man. How could any celestial being deign to come and deal with me?"

Gu Gongyou asked, "Junior Brother, you have won the title of Pill King, so your alchemy skills must be extraordinary. Do you know how to refine the Overlord Heart-Burning Pill?"

Lin Chen replied, "I haven't refined it before, but I know the formula and the technique, so I should be able to refine it successfully."

Gu Gongyou's eyes lit up, filled with excitement and anticipation: "Then I'll have to ask you for a favor, Senior Brother!"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "To refine the Overlord Heart-Burning Pill?"

Gu Gongyou nodded: "My cultivation method is quite unique, making it very difficult to improve. I've been in seclusion for three hundred years and still haven't succeeded in advancing; I'm always just a little short. If I combine it with the Overlord's Heart-Burning Pill, perhaps a breakthrough might be possible." "I instructed them to gather the main ingredients for the Overlord's Heart-Burning Pill a hundred years ago, but no one knows the formula, let alone how to refine it. This delay has lasted a century, until today..."

Lin Chen replied earnestly, "Senior Brother Gu, I'll give it a try."

Gu Gongyou laughed and said, "Alright, give it a try. Even if you fail, it's fine. You won the title of Pill King, which is enough to prove your ability. If you can't even refine it, then maybe no one else can."

Although Lin Chen had never practiced it before, he was still quite confident and replied, "It should be fine."

Lin Chen immediately wrote down the prescription and handed it to Meng Gongxin. Meng Gongxin immediately sent someone to the medicine storehouse to deliver the main ingredient, Overlord Yuanling Ginseng, and all the auxiliary ingredients that he had previously found.

Lin Chen opened the furnace in Gu Gongyou's cave and, with skillful techniques, steadily refined a batch of Overlord Blood Burning Pills.

"Senior Brother Gu, it's done!"

Looking at the pills in the porcelain plate, Gu Gongyou was overjoyed: "Good, good! Junior brother, you've done your senior brother a great favor!"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Senior brother, you are the pillar of our White Crane Immortal Sect. If your strength reaches a higher level, it will be a blessing for the entire White Crane Immortal Sect. I would be honored if I could do my part."

Gu Gongyou laughed and said, "With this batch of Overlord Blood Burning Pills, my chances of breaking through will be much greater. Perhaps when you return next time, Junior Brother, I will already be a mid-stage Celestial Immortal!"

Lin Chen cupped his hands in greeting: "Wishing you a successful advancement, Senior Brother!"

Gu Gongyou was overjoyed to have obtained the Overlord Blood Burning Pill, which gave him hope for a breakthrough. He looked at his junior brother Lin Chen with great affection.

Uncle Su has done a great deed by taking on an outstanding disciple!

"I heard you're going to another continent?"

Lin Chen replied, "Yes, I'm just taking a look around, visiting my wife and former friends from my sect..."

Gu Gongyou asked, "Will you go to the Tianxuan Continent?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes."

Shenmu Palace and Xian Palace are both located on Tianxuan Continent, so although they are far apart, Lin Chen will definitely go there.

Gu Gongyou's gaze was slightly complicated. He took out a token and handed it to Lin Chen: "Once we arrive in the Tianxuan Continent, I'd like to ask you to visit someone for me..."

Lin Chen noticed Gu Gongyou's unusual gaze, but didn't ask any further questions: "Okay, senior brother, tell me her name and address."

Gu Gongyou replied, "The Northern Xuan Sect, Dugu Feiyan."
