The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2345 The Cultivation Method of the Natal Divine Tree

"I don't want to go back!"

Mi Xiaowan's gaze was firm: "Although I know they had no choice but to send me to the Illusion Moon Sect this time, and I agreed to it myself, I... I don't want this to happen again."

Lin Chen understood and sighed, "You agreed to come to the Illusion Moon Sect for your family, for the sect, and to repay the kindness of those who raised you. When you set off, you considered yourself dead. Now, although you have escaped your predicament, you have experienced such emotional turmoil and you are unwilling to go back."

“Intellectually, you can understand your grandfather’s decision, but emotionally, you are disappointed. Although you did this, you haven’t truly forgiven them in your heart, so you don’t want to go back, right?”

Mi Xiaowan burst into tears. She bit her lip and nodded silently.

Yes, that's what she really thought.

Genuine emotions.

She was willing to sacrifice herself to repay a debt of gratitude, but deep down she was still disappointed because they had given up on her.

Now that the debt of gratitude has been repaid, and there is no more debt owed, and since my life has been spared, this life belongs to me from this day forward, so why should I go back?
If I go back, will they make the same decision again and make me sacrifice myself once more if the same thing happens next time?
Do not!
Sacrificing for them once is enough!
Mi Xiaowan wiped away her tears and bowed cleanly to Liu Yun: "Senior, I know my talent is limited and I may not have a bright future, but I hope that Wuling Mountain can take me in as an ordinary disciple so that I can live out my remaining years in peace..."

Liu Yun smiled slightly: "Your beauty means you are destined not to live an ordinary life like ordinary people. Wuling Mountain is not suitable for you. Besides, you are still young. Why talk about ending your life? You have a long future ahead of you."

Mi Xiaowan didn't dare to hope that Liu Yun would accept her as a disciple. She only hoped to join a major sect like Wuling Mountain, even if she was just an ordinary disciple, so that she would have someone to rely on. Unfortunately, Liu Yun rejected her.

Mi Xiaowan was filled with desolation and confusion. She knew very well that without a powerful enough backer, her beauty would only bring her disaster.

Liu Yun laughed and said, "Since Lin Chen has helped you, he naturally won't just help halfway... right, Lin Chen?"

Lin Chen smiled wryly, "Helping her is definitely no problem, but I myself am still uncertain. If she comes with me, I'm afraid her life will be very unstable. I've spent my whole journey on the move, constantly on the move and running for my life..."

Liu Yun said with a smile, "Didn't you say that you were going to the Qing Shen Sect to open your own cave and set up your own sect? What's wrong with having one more person in the cave?"

Helpless, Lin Chen turned to look at Ziyun. Before Ziyun could speak, Mi Xiaowan knelt down before her: "Sister Yun, please take me in. From now on, I will be your maid and servant to repay you!" Ziyun had always felt sorry for Mi Xiaowan, so she reached out and helped her up, smiling: "If you have nowhere to go, then come with me. As for being a maid or servant, let's not talk about that."

Mi Xiaowan was overjoyed: "Thank you, Sister Yun!"

Liu Yun laughed and said, "See, the matter is resolved, isn't it?"

Mi Xiaowan is indeed very beautiful, with a captivating beauty, but Lin Chen is not the kind of person who can't resist beautiful women. If he had a choice, he would even prefer Mi Xiaowan to join Wuling Mountain with Liu Yun, which would save him a lot of trouble.

However, Liu Yun was unwilling, and his wife agreed, so that was the only way things were.

With the matter settled, Lin Chen stopped worrying and readily agreed, "Okay, putting everything else aside, providing a safe place for cultivation is definitely not a problem."

The location of the cave dwelling is still uncertain, but the Linglong Tower is a world of its own. If Mi Xiaowan can endure the loneliness, she can live in the Linglong Tower just like Lu Yao is now, safe and quiet.

Just as Liu Yun was about to leave, Lin Chen asked, "Senior, I saw you use your supernatural powers earlier, and that willow tree was so powerful... Is that your innate supernatural power?"

Liu Yun nodded: "Years ago, I comprehended the Dao under a willow tree. After advancing to the Great Luo realm, I needed to choose a tree as my natal divine tree. I chose the willow tree. I searched for a thousand years and found the seed of this Destiny Willow. Then I refined it into my natal divine tree."

Lin Chen quickly asked, "For the Wood element in the Five Elements, is it necessary to choose one's natal Wood?"

"It depends on you. However, having a natal divine tree will make it easier to use supernatural powers and make them more powerful. Of course, it will require more resources and energy to nurture and enhance the natal divine tree. So some people choose it and some don't. It's a matter of personal opinion."

Lin Chen pressed on, "If I want to possess my own natal divine tree, what should I do, and what choices should I make? Uh, senior, although I've had a master along the way, I've mostly learned by trial and error, and there are many things I don't quite understand..."

Liu Yun opened his palm, and with a flash of light, a jade slip appeared in his hand: "This is the method for choosing and cultivating your natal divine tree. You can take a look when you have time. As for whether you ultimately choose a natal divine tree, that's up to you..."
