The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2551 I didn't expect you could refine pills?

Finally got it!
Lin Chen breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart, but on the surface he wore an expression of gratitude for being shown a favor: "Thank you, Patriarch. I don't know how to express my gratitude. I will definitely work hard to serve you and share your burdens in the future!"

Wei Mingxuan laughed heartily and said, "Good, you are a true talent. My Wei family will not treat you unfairly."

Wei Mingxuan deliberately reminded himself that he had used his connections to get the Hidden Divine White Jade Stem back, and he also made it clear that it had been obtained before the end of the competition. In other words, regardless of whether Lin Chen won or lost, he had done this for Lin Chen, subtly indicating his high regard for Lin Chen.

Show mercy!

Lin Chen understood and pretended to be moved, cooperating with Wei Mingxuan in a performance.

That being said, regardless of Wei Mingxuan's actual strength, his ability to win people's hearts is truly remarkable, which is why he became the head of the Wei family.

If Lin Chen hadn't come with ulterior motives, and was actually the genuine Chen Fan, he probably would have already won him over completely.

It's unclear what the old leader Fan Tianxing and his group intend to do with the Yuwen and Wei families, but judging from Shangguan Wenyin's tone, they seem to plan to take them down and make them obey his orders.

If Wei Mingxuan were sensible, he wouldn't have to die; if he wasn't, even a god couldn't save him.

"Alright, go back and get some rest. We've already arranged our manpower, and we'll head to the secret realm tomorrow."

Lin Chen asked, "Is it really necessary for you, the patriarch, to personally go and explore such a trivial matter as exploring a secret realm?"

Wei Mingxuan laughed and said, "There are many ferocious beasts around the lake of the Heavenly Secret Divine Water. If we want to boil the lake in peace, we must kill or lure them away. Since we have nothing to do here anyway, let's go together. Patriarch Yuwen is also going, so I have to come along to prevent any unexpected situations."

Lin Chen casually inquired, "Will there be many experts joining?"

Wei Mingxuan replied, "That small world isn't very big, and there's nothing particularly good about it. We'll only send strong people in to eliminate the dangers and collect the Heavenly Secret Divine Water. After that, the Yuwen family will organize a team to search for it. That's none of our business."

Perhaps because Lin Chen defeated Yuwen Zhao, helping the Wei family win an additional 20% share, Wei Mingxuan was willing to explain in more detail to show that he valued Lin Chen.

“Our Wei family has five members, and the Yuwen family has five. Among them, four are high-grade Grand Luo Immortals, six are mid-grade Grand Luo Immortals, and then there are you and Yuwen Zhao…”

Lin Chen asked in surprise, "Didn't Yuwen Zhao lose?"

Wei Mingxuan smiled and said, "Yes, so you will handle the extraction of the Heavenly Secret Divine Water, while he will assist and supervise. After all, this is a joint effort between the two families. Regardless of whether there are personal motives, it is best to have people from both sides participate in the supervision to avoid suspicion, which would not be good for either of the two families."

Lin Chen nodded understandingly: "If it's just the two of us alchemists, and I'm capable, then I'll handle the collection; if I'm not, then he'll do it?"

"That's what I mean." Wei Mingxuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's not difficult at all, much simpler than refining pills."

"Ok!"

Wei Mingxuan stood up: "This is the Yuwen family residence, so it's not really convenient to celebrate here. I'll throw a banquet to celebrate your success after this is all done!"

Celebrating victory?

Whether you can survive once you enter the secret realm is a question. Even if you can submit to Fan Tianxing and live, you probably won't be in the mood to celebrate my victory.

Lin Chen left Wei Mingxuan's residence, strolled around his own residence, and found Shangguan Wenyin standing guard.

Lin Chen walked up to Shangguan Wenyin and transmitted his voice to him: "You're quite diligent, actually standing guard here so seriously..."

Shangguan Wenyin replied, "When you're in a dangerous place, you have to be careful. But you, I didn't expect you to be a master alchemist. Even Yuwen Zhao is no match for you."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "It's not a direct competition, so it doesn't prove anything. We're entering the secret realm tomorrow, and as you predicted, you, as a guard, probably aren't qualified to go in..."

Shangguan Wenyin asked, "Do you have definite news?"

Lin Chen told Shangguan Wenyin what he knew, and Shangguan Wenyin replied, "It seems we have no choice but to ask you to take us in."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I can take you in, but I want all the Heavenly Secret Divine Water. Also, I hope my identity will not be exposed."

Shangguan Wenyin asked, "No problem, what are you planning to do?"

Lin Chen had already considered this matter. He did not want to get involved in the internal war of the Sea God Sect, giving the current leader a reason to go crazy and deal with the Dragon Mountain Sect.

"You've won. Once you've got everyone under control, just say I was originally one of yours, that I followed you in the Bitter Sea, and that my infiltration of the Wei family to gather information was merely your order. Then I can openly leave the Wei family and the Sea God Cult..."

Shangguan Wenyin asked, "Is that alright? Are you worried that your identity will be exposed and bring trouble to the Longshan Sect?"

Lin Chen readily admitted, "Yes, the Dragon Mountain Sect will not intervene in your civil war."

Shangguan Wenyin readily agreed: "Sure, this is just a private collaboration between you and me, and has nothing to do with the Longshan Sect!"
