The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2668 What's there to be afraid of? It's not illegal!

Seeing Kong Ling's expression, which looked like she had a toothache, Lin Chen smiled.

It seems Kong Ling doesn't really want to see me!

Thinking about it, it makes sense. He occupied his father's body, and he was like his creditor. He had always been thinking about how to take his father's body back. As someone being chased for debt, he naturally didn't want to see his creditor.

Lin Chen replied with a smile, "I was on a mission and passed through this place. I sensed your presence, so I came to see you. What, are you unhappy to see me?"

Kong Ling grinned: "Happy...of course I'm happy."

Guo Huai watched the two greet each other, confirming that they did know each other. Although Kong Ling's reaction wasn't very enthusiastic, he could tell that the two weren't enemies, and only then did he truly feel relieved.

"Kong Ling, Mr. Lin is a disciple of the Battle Hall of the Myriad Immortals Palace. He came here specifically to see you."

"The Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals?"

Kong Ling's expression first showed surprise, then strangeness: "You joined the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals?"

"correct."

Lin Chen took out the token and waved it at Kong Ling: "What, you don't believe me?"

Kong Ling's tone was subtle: "You've quietly become a special envoy of the Celestial Palace before, will you do the same this time?"

Lin Chen immediately understood the reason for Kong Ling's strange expression. He was saying that he had managed to get on the good side of the domain lord's daughter in the Thunder Immortal Realm and obtained the special status of a special envoy of the Immortal Palace. Now he had infiltrated the Myriad Immortals Palace and become a disciple of the Battle Hall. Was he repeating his old tricks and taking the women's route again?

Lin Chen laughed and said, "What kind of look is that? The Eastern Glory Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering and the Immortal Palace disciple selection were all done through proper selection. I didn't get in through any connections."

Kong Ling nodded and said no more, after all, Guo Huai was still there.

Lin Chen turned his head and smiled, "Elder Guo, Kong Ling and I haven't seen each other for many years. It's a pleasant surprise to meet again. If you don't mind, I'd like to have a private chat with him."

Guo Huai readily agreed: "Of course, no problem. Kong Ling, show Mr. Lin around. Although you are friends, he is a guest, so you must take good care of him and not neglect him."

Kong Ling bowed and said, "Yes, Uncle-Master... Lin Chen, come with me."

Lin Chen followed Kong Ling out of the main hall and flew towards the distant mountains, then landed on the mountainside of one of them.

Lin Chen looked around and asked, "Is your cave dwelling here?"

Kong Ling sneered: "It's just that there's no one here, so it's convenient to talk."

Lin Chen teased, "We're old friends, and we're reunited. Instead of taking me to your cave and treating me to good wine, meat, and tea, you brought me to this deserted place. Is this how you treat your host?" Kong Ling retorted sarcastically, "Old friend, you probably only think about killing me every day. You think I'd treat you to meat and wine? Dream on!"

Lin Chen turned around, gazing at the boundless beauty before him, and laughed, "If you don't want to eat, then don't. Why are you thinking of joining the Illusion Serpent Sect for its ancient heritage?"

Kong Ling's expression changed slightly: "What nonsense are you talking about? I am a demon, so choosing a demon cultivation sect is a very normal thing. After all, you know that on the path of cultivation, it is too dangerous to fight alone without a big backer."

Lin Chen shook his head: "I don't believe it!"

Kong Ling raised an eyebrow and scoffed, "I didn't ask you to believe me."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I know you quite well. You have a clear purpose in everything you do. Now that you have entered the Great Luo Sect, with your abilities and methods, you could easily join one of the Twelve Immortal Sects, let alone other sects. But you chose to join such a declining sect. And you still say you have no problem with it?"

Kong Ling's face turned slightly unnatural after his secret was exposed: "Are you here to investigate a case? Why are you asking so many questions!"

Lin Chen laughed heartily: "Looks like I was right!"

Kong Ling snorted coldly, "I joined the Illusion Serpent Sect and learned its supernatural abilities. Isn't that normal? Everyone else is always boasting about how long their history is and how glorious they were. I'm just going along with it."

Lin Chen asked curiously, "Tell me, what exactly is it?"

Kong Ling glared at Lin Chen, seemingly unwilling to speak, but Lin Chen persisted in staring into his eyes, waiting.

Kong Ling, speechless under Lin Chen's gaze, replied helplessly, "Sand King Illusionary Serpent Technique."

Lin Chen asked curiously, "Is it very powerful?"

"An ancient inheritance, a top-grade cultivation technique, wouldn't you say it's amazing?"

Kong Ling rolled her eyes, not forgetting to warn Lin Chen, "Don't you dare go around telling everyone, or I'll be in big trouble!"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "What are you afraid of? You are a disciple of the Illusion Serpent Sect. It's perfectly normal for you to want to learn the sect's top-grade techniques. It's not illegal, right?"

Kong Ling ignored Lin Chen and sneered, "How did you find me?"

Lin Chen replied, "What I found was my father's body, not you."

Kong Ling suddenly realized: "Bloodline Traction Technique, right?"

Lin Chen nodded, staring at Kong Ling and said in a deep voice, "Yes, I came here specifically to see you, hoping you will keep your promise..."
