The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2383 Not seeking sacrifice, but striving to do one's best

Am I the person in the divination?
Lin Chen suddenly remembered the phrase "This child is destined to be with my Longyun Mountain," and then he thought of how Fuyunzi's divination changed the fact that the leader of Longyun Mountain had fallen. Many things suddenly became clear to him.

"Senior, what was the meaning of that divination?"

Fu Yunzi's expression was solemn: "In my divination, the Longshan Sect will face a life-or-death crisis, and there is someone who may change the crisis or save the Longshan Sect from it."

Lin Chen stared wide-eyed at Fu Yunzi in disbelief.

Fu Yunzi remained silent, quietly watching Lin Chen with a firm gaze.

After staring at each other for several seconds, Lin Chen couldn't help but point a finger at his own nose: "That person...me?"

Fu Yunzi nodded: "Yes, it's you."

Lin Chen smiled wryly: "Senior, could there be some misunderstanding? My strength is common in the Dragon Mountain Sect. I don't have any special abilities. If even the Dragon Mountain Sect is facing a life-or-death crisis that they can't resolve, what way could I possibly solve it?"

Fu Yunzi shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Lin Chen was taken aback: "You don't know?"

Fu Yunzi nodded and said, "I don't know if the disaster I divined will come, nor am I sure if it does, whether you can definitely solve it. I was still doubting it, but I met you at the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering."

"The description of you in the divination is obscure and difficult to understand. In general, it means that you have the body of a mortal, but you possess abilities comparable to immortals and gods. As you said, you have mediocre talent, but now you have a sword-like body and a sword aptitude no weaker than that of a sword spirit. You are not born with a Dao body, but you possess the seed of extraordinary phenomena. You have not yet entered the Great Luo realm, but you already possess the ability to create clones..."

“I was quite confused by the description in the divination, but the moment I saw you, I felt that you were most likely the person in the divination. You refused to become a disciple, but then you saved the disciples of the three religions at sea and also saved many members of the visiting delegation. I became more and more certain that you are the person I am looking for in the divination.”

"You say you are lazy, don't like to bear other people's expectations, and don't like to take on too much responsibility. But in my opinion, you take good care of your family and protect them very well. You are even willing to help unrelated people. You are just more reserved with your emotions and prefer to do rather than talk."

"So far, only I know about this matter, because the divination shows that this disaster is not now, but in the future. I have no way of knowing how long it will last, and I cannot convince others. In addition, I think that as long as I take you as my disciple and you join the Dragon Mountain Sect, perhaps this calamity can be averted." "Divination is vague; it can only give general hints, not precise descriptions. You just told me the truth, so I don't want to lie to you. You can still refuse me, because I'm not even sure if joining the Dragon Mountain Sect is the right way to resolve this calamity."

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief, finally understanding the whole story. Sure enough, there's no such thing as a free lunch!
Fu Yunzi wanted to take him as a disciple because he fit the description of a person destined for misfortune in his divination.

Lin Chen wasn't particularly disappointed, after all, he's always been very self-aware.

A top expert like Fuyunzi has seen all kinds of geniuses. Someone of my level might pique his interest, but it's impossible for him to take me as a disciple on our first meeting.

He only touched the tail of fate and saw himself in the hazy future!

After Fu Yunzi explained, Lin Chen's resistance lessened. He thought for a moment and said, "Senior, you just said that you think it's probably me. What if I become your disciple and later find out that the person you're looking for isn't me?"

Fu Yunzi laughed and said, "Whether you are that person or not, as long as you are my disciple, I will naturally fulfill my responsibilities as a master. Besides, even if you are not that person, everything about you interests me. I want to see how far you, a different kind of cultivator, can go."

Lin Chen nodded: "If one day, the Dragon Mountain Sect really encounters a great calamity, and I have done my best to help, but still cannot solve the problem, no, if it requires me to sacrifice my own life to solve the problem, then what choice do you want me to make, senior?"

Fu Yunzi answered without hesitation: "Everything has its destiny. Just do your best. You have no obligation to sacrifice your life for anyone. You have become my disciple. Even if Longshan suffers a great calamity, as long as you can escape, Longshan will still exist!"

Lin Chen looked into Fu Yunzi's eyes. Fu Yunzi stretched out his hand, his expression solemn: "Everything I just said came from the bottom of my heart. If there is a single false or deceptive word, I am willing to suffer the torment of heavenly lightning and be reduced to ashes!"

Lin Chen did not stop him, because he knew very well that everything Fu Yunzi did was not simply to take him as a disciple, but more for the future of the Longshan Sect.

Lin Chen knelt down cleanly and decisively: "Lin Chen greets Master!"
