The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2000 Has the situation become so dangerous?
"Master, the treasure vault has been thoroughly searched; everything is here."

Faced with the spatial ring that Shu Zifeng offered, Lin Chen didn't reach for it, but instead asked, "Is there anything you like?"

Shu Zifeng laughed and said, "There are quite a few good things, including a top-grade spiritual treasure."

High-grade spiritual treasure?

Lin Chen became somewhat interested: "What is it?"

Shu Zifeng replied, "A red ribbon called the Hun Tian Ling (Heaven-Shattering Ribbon). It can be soft or hard, long or short. It can be used to cover the sky and surround the enemy, or as a rope to bind the enemy..."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "That's good, you can have it."

Shu Zifeng opened her eyes wide: "Master, don't you want it?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "What's the big deal about me using a red ribbon? Besides, I have the Qiankun Glazed Umbrella, the Nine Dragon Lotus Platform, and the Linglong Pagoda. This Hun Tian Ribbon is useless to me, but it's perfect for you."

Shu Zifeng clearly liked the Hun Tian Ling quite a bit, and immediately stopped being polite: "Thank you, Master!"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Take whatever you want. It was all stolen anyway. Once you've chosen, return the rest to the sect and let them deal with it. It'll be a way to make up for the sect's losses."

Shu Zifeng shook his head and said, "Having the Hun Tian Ling is enough. I don't need anything else."

Lin Chen nodded: "Alright, the matter is settled, let's go back."

Lin Chen ignored the trembling disciples of the Wuji Sword Sect and the three of them left the Wuji Sword Sect directly.

The three of them sped all the way back to the White Crane Immortal Sect.

Zhou Ting was not the only one welcoming Lin Chen and the others back; Sect Master Meng Gongxin was also there. After being treated by Lin Chen, he woke up and, although his injuries had not yet fully healed, he had improved considerably and was able to handle many sect affairs despite his injuries.

"Little uncle!"

Meng Gongxin looked at Lin Chen, bowed respectfully, and his eyes were full of gratitude.

If it weren't for the timely return of Junior Uncle and his intervention, which saved many of the wounded from the brink of death, especially Senior Uncle, the White Crane Immortal Sect would probably have been truly finished this time.

Lin Chen smiled and asked, "How is your injury healing?"

Meng Gongxin respectfully replied, "It's about 60-70% healed. The rest will take time to recover with proper care. I estimate it will take three to five months to fully recover. If it weren't for your help, Junior Uncle, the losses suffered by my White Crane Immortal Sect this time would have been incalculable..."

Lin Chen replied, "I am a member of the White Crane Immortal Sect, so it is my duty to take action. I have nothing more to say."

Meng Gongxin invited the three to the main hall, asking Lin Chen to take the seat of honor, with Venerable Ziyun sitting beside him, before finally sitting down himself. Shu Zifeng obediently sat down to Meng Gongxin's left; according to seniority, she was Meng Gongxin's junior sister.

"Junior Uncle, I heard you went to investigate the people of the Heavenly Dao Alliance. Have you found anything?"

Lin Chen nodded: "We found out. They had subdued the Wuji Sword Sect and were hiding there. We uprooted them and killed them all."

Meng Gongxin's eyes widened: "The Wuji Sword Sect has sided with the Heavenly Dao Alliance?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Perhaps it was out of helplessness, or perhaps they wanted to take advantage of the situation. In any case, it is a fact that they have joined the Heavenly Dao Alliance. Not every sect has the courage to refuse when a powerful enemy enters their sect."

Meng Gongxin sighed and said, "It was my carelessness. If I had figured out their identities and prevented them from entering the sect, and used the mountain-protecting formation to defend against the enemy, we would not have suffered such losses."

Lin Chen comforted him, "You can't possibly defend against someone who is prepared to attack you. This matter is over, so don't blame yourself. We wiped out all the high-ranking members of the Wuji Sword Sect, let the disciples go, and emptied their treasure vaults. Take a look at these things and see if they are valuable."

Shu Zifeng presented the spatial ring, and Meng Gongxin smiled and said, "Of course it's useful. The Wuji Sword Sect is stronger than our Baihe Immortal Sect, so its treasure trove is naturally full of good things, which will definitely be of great benefit to the development of our Baihe Immortal Sect disciples."

Lin Chen nodded: "We inquired and found that they have only targeted the Wuji Sword Sect for the time being, using it as a hiding place. Otherwise, I could have destroyed several more sects and brought back several sect treasures."

For a moment, Meng Gongxin didn't know what expression to make. Was this junior uncle getting addicted to robbery?

"Thank you so much, Junior Uncle! We will work hard in our cultivation and improve ourselves as soon as possible!"

As Meng Gongxin spoke, his heart was filled with countless emotions.

Bringing Lin Chen to the White Crane Immortal Sect through all sorts of means was truly a brilliant move.

Although Lin Chen learned the Heavenly Sword, his current level of growth is not really related to the Heavenly Sword. However, because of the Heavenly Sword, Lin Chen became a member of the White Crane Immortal Sect.

After the news of the battle with the Wuji Sword Sect spread, the status of the White Crane Immortal Sect naturally rose, and it is likely that no one in the entire Cloud Sky Continent would dare to point fingers or speak loudly to the White Crane Immortal Sect anymore.

First there was Su Shaoling, and now there is Lin Chen.

The Heavenly Sword lineage is indeed a lucky star for the White Crane Immortal Sect!

"Junior Uncle, is there something important that brings you back so suddenly?"

Lin Chen replied, "The Heavenly Dao Alliance's reinforcements are coming soon, and a fierce battle is about to begin. The outcome is uncertain, so I came back to take a look first and leave behind the Heavenly Sword's legacy, so that the Heavenly Sword's legacy won't be lost when I leave in the future."

Meng Gongxin's eyes widened: "Has the situation become that dangerous?"
