The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2464: He's not even a Saint, what's there to be afraid of!

"Aren't you Longshan sect Taoists? Are Taoists allowed to have Taoist partners?"

Lin Chen replied, "The Longshan Sect is not Buddhism, and it does not require its disciples to sever all romantic relationships. Moreover, I have only recently become a disciple of the sect, and I already had a Daoist partner before joining the Longshan Sect."

Shang Wenyan suddenly realized and asked curiously, "How did you and your Daoist partner meet?"

Lin Chen touched his nose and replied somewhat awkwardly, "Her grandfather and my master are friends."

Lin Chen has more than one Daoist partner, but under these circumstances, there is no need to explain this, so he answered the question about his relationship with Chu Jiaxue.

Shang Wenyan noticed Lin Chen's awkward expression but didn't think much of it, praising, "Knowing him well is a good thing."

Lin Chen agreed, "Yes, it's pretty good."

Shang Wenyan asked, "Where are you planning to take me?"

Lin Chen thought for a moment: "You can't use your strength right now, you're just like an ordinary person. I wouldn't feel comfortable leaving you alone anywhere. You're a woman, it's not really appropriate for you to stay in the Dragon Mountain Sect. How about you come to my house? You'd be safer there..."

Shang Wenyan asked curiously, "Where do you live?"

"Beihai is a very small island where only my family lives; there are no outsiders."

Shang Wenyan hesitated for a moment: "Won't this affect your normal lives?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "It won't affect anything. However, the island isn't as bustling as a city. Besides planting flowers and grass and fishing, there aren't many other entertainment activities. I'm just afraid you won't be able to stand the loneliness..."

Shang Wenyan chuckled and said, "I basically never leave my house in Hongyun City."

Lin Chen chuckled and said, "Alright, once Shangguan Wenyin is free, he will come to see you. Until then, you can stay at my place without worry. Apart from the two elders, no one else knows where my house is, so don't worry about being found."

Shang Wenyan nodded: "Then I'll trouble you."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "No trouble at all. Just make sure you don't have anything on you that can be used to track or locate you before we go."

After finalizing the itinerary, Lin Chen began his cultivation.

Previously, Lin Chen had obtained a large number of Phoenix Fire Crystals. Now that he had some free time, he seized the opportunity to cultivate, absorb the essence of fire, and improve his strength.

The journey went smoothly, and Lin Chen returned to Moon Goddess Island without incident.

A year had passed since their last departure, and the camp of the three religions was now empty.

Lin Chen went to the Moon Goddess Sect to inquire and found out that the three sects had already chosen their respective locations and were heading to their branch offices.

The Longshan Sect chose Shenglong Island, located in the southwest of the North Sea, because the islands in this area are relatively small, the population is not large, and the resources are not abundant. The influence of the Sea God Sect in this area is relatively small, making it a relatively suitable place to establish a presence.

Lin Chen is now a member of the Dragon Mountain Sect, so naturally he needs to get acquainted with the sect. The Immortal Realm is too vast. Even though he can travel hundreds of miles in an instant, the back-and-forth travel can take months. Lin Chen couldn't help but sigh. If an immortal's lifespan isn't long enough, they would probably waste their entire life on the road.

Lin Chen didn't waste any time. On the way there and back, he focused on his cultivation, absorbing a large amount of fire essence. His strength improved by leaps and bounds, and he quickly reached the peak of the Illusion Breaking Realm.

Lin Chen had previously harvested a considerable amount of Void Lotus Grass. He and his two wives used about half of it to advance to the Great Luo realm, gave some to the Dark Ancestral Dragon, and he still had fifteen left.

Lin Chen paused his cultivation. After all, every breakthrough was a test of life and death, a test of the Heavenly Dao. He had to be in the best possible condition to maximize his chances of success. Otherwise, one failure would mean total defeat.

Lin Chen successfully arrived at Shenglong Island and found the Longshan Taoist Temple, which was under construction.

Fu Yunzi was meditating when he heard that Lin Chen had returned, and he was quite happy.

"master!"

Fu Yunzi looked Lin Chen up and down and smiled, "How did things go?"

Lin Chen nodded: "It went fairly smoothly, but I may have offended someone."

Fu Yunzi raised an eyebrow: "Who did you offend?"

Lin Chen answered honestly, "The Guixu Sect."

Fu Yunzi blinked: "Never heard of it, is it that amazing?"

Lin Chen replied, "Their ancestor was a high-grade Grand Luo Immortal."

Fu Yunzi nodded: "Is there a Quasi-Saint?"

"no!"

Fu Yunzi curled his lip and laughed, "What's there to be afraid of? So what if we offended them? When you're in the world, you can't avoid offending people... But speaking of which, you're new to Beihai, so you shouldn't have any grudges with the Guixu Sect, right?"

Lin Chen recounted how he had repaid Shangguan Wenyin's favor, and Fu Yunzi's expression immediately became quite subtle.

"The Three Goddesses of the North Sea? You abducted one of them?"

Lin Chen retorted, "What do you mean by 'abduct'? I was just repaying Shangguan Wenyin's favor by helping him pick up the person."

Fu Yunzi asked curiously, "Is it really that beautiful?"

Lin Chen blinked: "She's inside the Linglong Tower. How about I ask her to come out, Master, you can see for yourself?"

Fu Yunzi waved his hand: "What am I looking at? I'm not looking. Even though it's to repay a favor, who knows when this person might become yours..."
