The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1583 Don't provoke that demon again!
"We don't know either. It was loot we stole from someone else. We've studied it and guessed it might be a token, but we've inquired and haven't heard of anyone using a skull and crossbones symbol as a sect emblem..."

Lin Chen weighed it down; the jade was about ten centimeters tall, dark, and quite heavy.

Keepsake?

Token?

Lin Chen carefully sensed it and found that there seemed to be spiritual energy fluctuations inside the jade.

Watching Lin Chen's actions, Liu Yuqi explained, "We also sensed fluctuations of spiritual energy inside, but we dared not break it open to check. After all, with this design, if we break it open, even if there's something inside, it will definitely be rendered useless..."

Lin Chen nodded, not bothering to investigate further, and simply tossed it into his spatial ring.

His intuition told him that this thing must have a significant history, but since he couldn't figure it out, he might as well leave it.

Who knows, we might find out someday.

After searching through the two people's spatial rings, Lin Chen casually tossed them back, along with a bottle of ointment.

The two goddesses scanned the area with their senses and were immediately overjoyed.

Although Lin Chen swept away all the high-value items, he kept all the magical artifacts they used in battle.

"Okay, let's treat your wound and get some rest."

Lin Chen took out the small pavilion again, lay down on the couch, and closed his eyes.

The two women exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with surprise and delight.

Is that all there is to it?
After being tormented by Lin Chen, the two of them almost forgot that they were peak True Immortals while Lin Chen was only an early Earth Immortal. Instead, they felt like Lin Chen was the big shot and they were just small fry.

The two ran to a far place, where Liu Yuqi applied ointment to Cuihong's shoulder while communicating telepathically.

"What's going on now? Did he let us leave?"

"Probably. He just wanted to teach us a lesson and vent his anger; he didn't actually intend to kill us."

"Should we run now?"

"Our consciousness is sealed, how can we run? This is a desolate wilderness, if we encounter a powerful monster, we'll all die!"

"What methods did he use to get us caught off guard?"

“We drugged him in the fruit juice we drank, but he must have drugged us in our food. He’s an alchemist, so naturally he has plenty of pills. We eat his food every day and enjoy it immensely, so it would be no problem for him to drug us…”

"Yeah, the food we ate before was so spicy, no matter how much poison was mixed in, we couldn't taste it. He probably knew we were going to attack him by setting up camp in this desolate wilderness, so he drugged us. That drug probably needs to be activated through combat, which is why he attacked us first. As soon as we circulated our spiritual energy, the drug took effect quickly." "He's so cunning! Isn't he afraid we'll attack him directly?"

“He knows we are peak True Immortals, but he is not afraid at all. Now he has even returned our weapons to us. I think they are not afraid of us at all.”

“I think he was testing us. If we ran away, or if we were not convinced and attacked him again, he definitely wouldn’t hold back next time.”

Liu Yuqi quickly treated Fan Cuihong's wounds, paused for a few seconds, and said in a low voice, "Let's go back. Don't think about revenge anymore. Even if we've lost this time, it's already a blessing that he spared our lives. We can't be ungrateful."

Although Fan Cuihong was indignant, the thought of being touched before sent a chill down her spine.

Don't provoke that demon again!

This time she let herself off the hook, but what if she really provoked him and he actually slept with her?
Lin Chen didn't reveal anything, but the two women felt a strange fear of him.

With mixed feelings, the two returned to the original spot, sat in chairs, closed their eyes to rest, and remained there until dawn.

The morning sun shone on the mountains and forests, and Lin Chen lazily got up.

He leisurely made himself a bowl of egg drop soup noodles, and this time, he didn't plan to make enough for the two of them.

Lin Chen finished his breakfast with relish, satisfying his appetite. Just as he was about to clean up the dishes and utensils, Liu Yuqi walked over quickly.

"Young Master Lin, let me do it."

Lin Chen was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "So diligent. I should have had you cook the meal too."

Liu Yuqi replied softly, "If Young Master Lin doesn't mind, I'd be happy to, but my cooking skills are limited, and I'm afraid they won't be as good as Young Master Lin's."

After Liu Yuqi tidied up the cooking utensils and bowls, Lin Chen put them away and tossed them a porcelain bottle containing two pills.

"These two pills can relieve your symptoms."

Lin Chen said calmly, "If you walk the dark road too much, you'll eventually run into a ghost. It's only a matter of time before you capsize. Just because I didn't sleep with you or kill you doesn't mean others won't. I advise you to take the right path as soon as possible."

"You schemed against me, and I took your magic weapon. We're even now. Farewell. Of course, if you're not satisfied, you can come and seek revenge."

After Lin Chen finished speaking, he took to the air and prepared to leave.

Liu Yuqi suddenly called out, "Young Master Lin, wait a moment!"
