The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2114 Old ginger is spicier?
Everyone immediately understood from Lin Chen's words.

This guy must have used some means to get rid of Chen Xiong. He thought that the two of them should have left after taking the things, so he came back. But he didn't expect that the two of them were still there, so he was scared and ran away again.

Without any hesitation, the two Sea Shark Sect disciples instantly transformed into golden light and chased after Lin Chen.

Chen Xiong chased after him, but if they watched Lin Chen escape again, wouldn't Chen Xiong blame them when he came back?

Since we've already got the Red Jade Orchid Fungus, there's no point in keeping it. The most important thing now is to catch this cunning old guy.

Xiao Shubo and the others were somewhat bewildered, their expressions becoming rather subtle for a moment.

Is this timid fellow Daoist Lin so slippery?

Chen Xiong actually managed to get rid of him?
He should be able to escape their pursuit, since they are weaker than Chen Xiong.

Hong Guiling said uncertainly, "He should be able to escape, right?"

Song Jun replied, "What do we do now? Stay here, or leave?"

Everyone suddenly came to their senses.

Yeah, if we stay any longer, what if Chen Xiong comes back and gets angry because he couldn't catch Lin Chen, and takes it out on us?
Reasonable?
In the world of cultivators, it's a law of the jungle; who cares about reason?

If we had been reasonable, none of this would have happened, and I wouldn't be in this miserable state.

Xiao Shubo gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go first. If he doesn't catch up with us later, we'll find a way to circle back and check."

Lu Xinyan frowned and asked, "Can he find us?"

Xiao Shubo glanced in the direction Lin Chen had disappeared: "Although I'm not sure, my intuition tells me that he can."

Song Jun urged, "No matter what, let's go first. This is really unlucky. If we stay any longer, things might get even worse."

Hong Guiling turned her head and glanced at the unconscious boy: "Where is he?"

Lu Xinyan said decisively, "Take him with us. There's no danger now. Otherwise, when he comes back and sees that we lost him, wouldn't he be very angry?"

"it is good!"

The four of them left without hesitation, taking the unconscious boy with them, and quickly drove away in their flying boat.

Not long after the group left, golden light flashed in the sky again, and Lin Chen's figure appeared above the mountain stream.

"gone?"

Lin Chen smiled, paused briefly, then turned and headed north. Hundreds of miles away, Xiao Shubo and the others hid in a valley, preparing to lay low for the storm.

Although Chen Xiong ridiculed Xiao Shubo in every way, he had no direct grudge against him, so he wouldn't hold a grudge. Seeing that everyone was gone, even if he was angry, he should have left after searching around and not finding anyone.

I hope Fellow Daoist Lin is alright.

After chatting for a while, the conversation revolved around Lin Chen. Lin Chen's courage in stepping forward made everyone like him even more, and his escape from Chen Xiong's pursuit made everyone have higher expectations for him.

Everyone hopes he can live.

Although Lin Chen appeared somewhat timid, he did a good job as a teammate.

Ultimately, we were just strangers who met by chance and formed a temporary team. Even with a contract and oath, we've already done quite well.

As they were talking, Xiao Shubo's expression changed slightly, and he whispered, "Someone's coming!"

Everyone stood up, their eyes wary.

"Don't be nervous, it's me."

Lin Chen's voice came first, and the guard on everyone's faces immediately disappeared, replaced by joy.

He actually caught up with them and found everyone!

Lin Chen appeared in front of the group and smiled at them: "Are you all alright?"

Lu Xinyan asked in surprise, "We're fine, how about you?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I'm fine. I led them around for a bit and then ran away. When I looked back and saw you weren't there, I chased after you. Well, when I first placed the Life and Death Seal on you, I was able to sense your location with it."

Lin Chen explained the situation in a few words, and also explained why he was able to find everyone.

Everyone immediately understood; so that's how it was!

Hong Guiling asked curiously, "What about Chen Xiong? Didn't he catch up with you?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I'm not very strong, but I'm good at escaping. After all, I'm afraid of dying. I lured him to chase me to a farther place, so I circled back."

After Lin Chen said that, no one asked the other two who had chased after them anymore. Even Chen Xiong had been caught up with, so it was normal for them to be outmaneuvered after going around in circles.
The crowd looked at Lin Chen with slightly strange eyes. This man wasn't very strong and was quite old, but he had a lot of tricks up his sleeve.
