The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1850 Can I get my reward first?

Zu Long was slightly taken aback, seemingly not expecting Lin Chen to ask so directly!
This matter hasn't been resolved yet!

Zu Long laughed and asked, "How was the immortal wine and immortal peach you consumed earlier?"

Lin Chen gave a thumbs up and praised, "The immortal wine is excellent. It changes one's physique and increases cultivation speed. The immortal peaches directly enhance one's strength, with obvious effects. It's a pity there aren't enough of them. Otherwise, with my strength at the mid-stage of True Immortal, I might have been able to advance directly to the peak of True Immortal!"

Zu Long smiled and promised, "A jar of immortal wine and fifty immortal peaches, how about that? Are you satisfied with the reward?"

Lin Chen's eyes lit up, his face full of excitement. He rubbed his hands together, seemingly a little embarrassed, but finally asked awkwardly, "Senior, can I have this reward first?"

Zu Long frowned: "The matter hasn't been resolved yet."

Lin Chen explained, "I'm a greedy person. If I take something, I feel at ease and can work hard. But if I don't have it in my hands, I always feel uneasy and hesitant to do anything. I figured that since I'm in this holy land, even if I take it, I won't run away. Senior, you don't need to worry about me not doing anything after receiving the reward, right?"

Zu Long looked at Lin Chen with a hint of annoyance in his eyes.

This kid hasn't even finished his business yet, and he's already thinking about taking things. Although he speaks politely, isn't he threatening me in his words?

Why do people become hesitant and timid when they don't receive a reward, but work hard when they do receive one?
The subtext is: if you don't give me a reward first, I'll slack off, and if things fail, don't blame me!

Little Fox!
The First Emperor was old and shrewd, and he knew the principle that if you want a horse to run fast, you have to feed it. Moreover, this was a matter of life and death, so it wasn't unreasonable for Lin Chen to ask for things in advance.

Moreover, although he is the ancestor of the Dragon Clan, with a noble status and great strength, Lin Chen is the special envoy of the Domain Lord, representing the most powerful force in this Immortal Domain, not his subordinate. It is normal for him to bargain with him.

Zu Long laughed and said, "Alright, then I'll give it to you first."

With a wave of his hand, Zu Long summoned a jar of immortal wine and fifty immortal peaches into the air. Lin Chen, without any hesitation, waved his hand and stored them all in his spatial ring.

"Thank you, senior. I will work hard and complete the mission well for these immortal wines and peaches!"

Zu Long nodded: "Is there anything else you'd like to ask?"

Lin Chen thought for a moment and asked, "I just heard that person say something about devouring you and becoming one with you. What does that mean?"

"It's just devouring."

Zu Long calmly replied, "We are now two separate individuals. Although we were separated from one person, he is now him and I am me. Devouring me will naturally be of great benefit to him." "Devouring is also annihilation! If I have the opportunity, I will also use the formation to eliminate him and completely sever this bond."

Lin Chen asked again, "Can we leave once we suppress or kill him?"

"Yes!"

Zu Long explained, "The reason I can't let you leave now is because his power can interfere with the portal. I can't open the portal and send you away. Of course, there are still some places in the Holy Land that you can explore. If you're interested, you can explore them first before leaving."

"it is good!"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "One last question, will you tell Ao Yanjiang the truth, senior?"

Zu Long shook his head: "No, if I tell him, he might not be willing to cooperate. After all, it is somewhat dangerous. Besides, if he is mentally prepared, it will be easy for him to give himself away. Only if he knows nothing can he be the most authentic and dispel the other person's suspicion."

Lin Chen nodded: "Okay, then I have no problem."

Zu Long took out the array plate that he had already set up and handed it to Lin Chen, then taught him how to use it, and finally took out a golden sphere.

"This is a magical artifact infused with my energy. It's a one-time consumable that can withstand one of his attacks for you. Remember, it can only withstand one attack, so you must enter the central hub as quickly as possible. After the formation is activated, even if I haven't teleported over yet, it will take him at least five minutes to break through the protective shield outside the central hub."

"As long as you can complete the placement and activation of the array plate within five minutes, your mission will be complete and you will be safe."

Lin Chen remembered everything and smiled, "I've remembered it."

Zu Long stared at Lin Chen and said in a deep voice, "This is the only chance. Once Yin Zhongshu is exposed, it will fall under his control. No one will be able to sneak in again. I have also lost the only chance to suppress him."

Zu Long's voice became quite solemn: "Given his personality, if we cannot suppress him successfully, he will inevitably go mad. At that time, all of you who have entered the abyss will become his first targets for slaughter!"

Lin Chen's heart sank, but he nodded: "I understand."

Zu Long said softly, "The lives of so many elite dragon disciples are now entirely in your hands!"

Lin Chen suddenly laughed and said, "Senior, don't worry, I will definitely complete the mission. By the way, I have a question. Why is Senior in human form, but he is in dragon form? He is indeed a dragon soul, right?"
