The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2989 This person... is unfathomable!

Kong Wenlong and the others all turned their heads at once, their eyes falling on Sun Yixiao with shock.

"Holy Thief!"

"That's Sun Yixiao, the Thief Saint. I overheard him calling out the numbers of the demons chasing them on the battlefield just now..."

After everyone confirmed Sun Yixiao's identity, their gazes subconsciously shifted to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen actually knows the Thief Saint?

Judging from Lin Chen's embarrassed expression, as if he wanted to cover his face, they seemed quite familiar with each other?
Although he addressed him as "senior," he didn't act with the utmost respect one would show to a quasi-saint; on the contrary, he was very casual.

Kong Wenlong suddenly felt fortunate that he had realized his mistake quickly; otherwise, if something had really happened, he would have been in serious trouble.

Lin Chen is no nobody with no background. He has connections with Quasi-Saints and is protected by the Palace Master!

Who would dare to bully him?
Fortunately, fortunately!
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lin Chen felt a little embarrassed, but seeing Sun Yixiao's undisguisedly warm tone, he felt a surge of joy at their long-awaited reunion and laughed, "It's been decades, I need to improve a bit, otherwise, wouldn't I be dead on the battlefield?"

Sun Yi laughed heartily: "What's your strength now?"

Lin Chen answered frankly, "Mid-grade Grand Luo Immortal."

Sun Yixiao's eyes widened suddenly, and he exclaimed, "You advanced too fast! Last time I saw you, you were just entering the Great Luo Immortal Realm. How many years has it been, and you're already a Middle-Rank Great Luo Beginning Immortal?"

Lin Chen chuckled and said, "I was lucky. I got some opportunities and earned some merit here. I also received some rewards from the Palace Master, so it was a bit faster."

Sun Yixiao asked curiously, "A reward from the Palace Master? What did he reward you with, and why?"

"Heavenly Lotus Seeds".

Lin Chen said frankly, "I went to the Bitter Sea Immortal Realm on business before and ran into the Demon Clan. Luckily, I ruined their teleportation plan..."

"You're that lucky guy!"

Sun Yixiao's expression was strange: "I know about this, but I never expected that lucky kid to be you. What were you doing in the Bitter Sea Immortal Realm?"

Lin Chen couldn't very well say that he was going to deal with Duan Tian Dao Ren's matter, so he simply said, "I'm going to visit a senior who can be of help to me."

Sun Yixiao asked curiously, "Who?"

Lin Chen didn't want to reveal Taixu Zhenren's identity, so he changed the subject, saying, "Senior, come sit with me and we can talk slowly."

Sun Yixiao snapped out of her daze, pursed her lips, and said, "So mysterious, let's go!"

After Lin Chen and Sun Yixiao left, a large group of people around them seemed to be petrified.

Sun Yixiao's attitude towards Lin Chen didn't seem like that of a senior to a junior at all; it was more like that of two long-lost friends. How exactly did Lin Chen manage to interact with a quasi-saint on such an equal footing?
Each Quasi-Saint is a powerful figure in their own right. They are the pinnacle of the Immortal Realm, and their vision is naturally very high. How could ordinary people possibly catch their eye?

Forget about equal interaction, it's not easy for others to even glance at you. After all, ordinary immortals are like ants in their eyes. Would you stare closely at one of the ants moving house on the roadside?
If you know how, then this one must be different from the others!

They had just mentioned that Lin Chen went to the Bitter Sea Immortal Realm. Lin Chen said he was going to visit a senior, and it seemed he didn't want to say it out loud, not wanting them to hear it.

Perhaps this person is also an extraordinary and powerful figure?

Otherwise, what's the point of just saying it directly, especially when the one asking the question is a quasi-saint?

Lin Chen's background is unfathomable!
Everyone exchanged glances, each seeing a meaningful look in the other's eyes.

Originally, I thought Lin Chen was just a nobody who got lucky by chance, but now it seems that Lin Chen is an incredibly powerful figure!

He may not be particularly powerful now, but his methods and his powerful backers are formidable!

Gao Ming and Chen Chong exchanged a glance, both feeling a lingering sense of unease.

They said a lot of bad things about Lin Chen, and the two of them felt much the same way as Kong Wenlong at that moment.

Fortunately, fortunately!
……

Inside the tent, Lin Chen casually cast a soundproofing spell, then invited Sun Yixiao to sit down.

Sun Yixiao plopped down in the chair and muttered, "So mysterious, so secretive, what's so hard to say?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I'm just afraid that if word gets out, it will cause trouble for others. Besides, I'm not the kind of person who bullies others by relying on my power. There's no need for that. Look how familiar I am with the senior, and I've never talked about it around."

Sun Yi snorted, "It's no use telling me. If something happens to you, I might not help you."

Lin Chen chuckled: "Why would I need your help, senior? As long as I say that I and the Thief Saint are close friends despite our age difference, then anyone who wants to bully me will have to think twice. After all, nobody wants to provoke you, senior, don't you think?"

Lin Chen gave Sun Yixiao a pat on the back, and Sun Yixiao nodded smugly. Then he came to his senses and said with a dark face, "They're all afraid of being targeted by thieves, right?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Thieves are indeed terrifying, but saints are even more terrifying. How many quasi-saints are there in this world?"

Sun Yixiao's expression softened: "You're quite the smooth talker, kid. So, who did you visit?"

Lin Chen smiled slightly: "Master Taixu."

Sun Yixiao's smile suddenly froze, and his back straightened a bit: "You know Master Taixu?"
