The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3015 Could this matter concern the Sage?
Ranked among the top ten in the entire Immortal Realm?

Lin Chen was shocked.

He knew the Linglong Tower was very powerful, but was it really that powerful?

Seeing that Master Taixu didn't press the matter, Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief: "It's such a pity that such a powerful innate spiritual treasure has gone missing. Its owner must have been very powerful."

Master Taixu laughed and said, "Such a primordial spiritual treasure is naturally not something that ordinary people can possess. If one is not strong enough to obtain it, it is like a child carrying gold through a bustling market, which can easily lead to death."

"His master, alas, has long since died. It's all ancient history. Don't inquire about it. This is not something you can ask about. Be careful not to get yourself into trouble."

When Master Taixu said this, he glanced at Lin Chen with a meaningful look in his eyes, his words seemingly carrying a reminder or warning.

Lin Chen's heart tightened. Could it be that Master Taixu had thought of something?

Lin Chen didn't dare to ask any more questions and smiled, "Okay, I won't ask. I just suddenly remembered it and said it offhand."

Master Taixu hummed in agreement and said softly, "There are immortals above humans, and saints above immortals. The path of immortality is boundless. Humans must always have a sense of awe, otherwise, they will one day encounter misfortune."

Lin Chen respectfully replied, "Thank you for your guidance, senior."

Master Taixu laughed and said, "A new generation surpasses the old. Take good care of your life. After this battle, perhaps you will also step into the Quasi-Saint realm and see a different world."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I'm a coward who's afraid of death. On the battlefield, making merit is second, saving my life is first. If I really encounter danger, I'll definitely be the first to run!"

Master Taixu smiled but made no comment.

"Alright, I've said what I needed to say. You guys can talk now."

Master Taixu drifted away from the tent, leaving behind the three people inside.

Wen Mengsheng and Gong Jianying had been listening attentively without saying a word, and now that their master had left, they were completely relaxed.

Gong Jianying said with delight, "Lin Chen, you're amazing! You've only been here a few years and you've already made such a name for yourself!"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Senior Sister Gong, why are you here too? This battlefield is extremely dangerous."

Gong Jianying laughed and said, "I am a doctor. Going to the battlefield does not necessarily mean fighting on the front line. I can do my part by helping wounded soldiers in the rear, and I can also improve my medical skills. It's a win-win situation."

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Gong Jianying's strength was not bad, but according to Lin Chen's understanding, she was kind-hearted and might not be suitable for the battlefield. Now that he heard her say that she was only there to be a doctor, he felt at ease.

Gong Jianying is beautiful and kind-hearted, and she is very kind and friendly to me. I was able to sabotage the Demon Clan's teleportation plan thanks to the explosive magic weapon she gave me. Otherwise, with my abilities, I would probably only be able to escape and would not have thought of blowing up the altar.
Wen Mengsheng smiled and said, "Master is indifferent to worldly affairs and people, but he cares a lot about Junior Brother. Junior Brother and Master are really destined to meet."

Lin Chen shook the Yin-Yang Water-Fire Mirror in his hand and laughed, "Senior is just showing affection for the house because of its owner."

Wen Mengsheng smiled and said, "That is certainly one reason, but the main reason is that your actions have caught the master's eye. It's not something that just anyone can get the right eye."

After a pause, Wen Mengsheng reminded him, "The tower you just asked about involves a very important matter. It's a taboo subject, so whether you're curious or want to find out more, it's best not to inquire further, otherwise, it could easily lead to trouble."

Wen Mengsheng knew too?

Lin Chen smiled nonchalantly, "Well, I was just asking out of curiosity, but I didn't expect it to have such a big impact. Even someone of your strength, senior, is so wary of it. It must involve someone very important." Wen Mengsheng smiled and said, "Of course. In short, if it's unrelated, just forget about it. If it is related, you'd better forget about it too and not get involved in the karma."

cause and effect?

Senior Brother Wen, I understand your good intentions, but I've already been entangled in this karma.

Without the Linglong Pagoda and Qi, Lin Chen would have died countless times. Therefore, he was determined to investigate this matter thoroughly, no matter how much karma it might cause.

However, both Master Taixu and Wen Mengsheng repeatedly reminded Lin Chen not to get involved in this matter, which shows that it was indeed of great importance.

Lin Chen wondered to himself, even the Grandmaster Taixu seemed unwilling to get involved in karma, so who was really involved?
If the other party is a quasi-saint, then Master Taixu shouldn't have such an attitude, right?
His strength is definitely among the top in the entire Immortal Realm's Quasi-Saint circle. Who does he need to fear?
There seems to be only one answer.

saint!

Is it a Celestial Emperor, or some other saint?
Sun Yixiao once said that although there are few saints, there is more than just the Immortal Emperor. However, they have already transcended worldly affairs, and the changes of life and death in the world no longer have much meaning for them. Therefore, they have long since transcended the Three Realms and are no longer bound by the Five Elements, observing the changes of the world with a cold eye.

They generally won't pay attention unless it involves their own affairs.

If this matter truly involves a sage, then many speculations can be made. The most intuitive speculation is that Qi's former owner offended a sage, or perhaps he was guilty of possessing a treasure, and the Linglong Pagoda caught the eye of a sage. Then a group of quasi-sages besieged him, wanting to seize the Linglong Pagoda. Qi's former owner refused to submit and would rather die than comply. In the end, he perished along with the pagoda. On his deathbed, he sent the Linglong Pagoda away, which eventually fell into the Wilderness Scripture Realm and became the Ghost Pagoda.

Of course, it could be a different story, but in any case, this matter most likely involves a sage.

Lin Chen composed himself and smiled, "Thank you for the reminder, Senior Brother."

Wen Mengsheng laughed and said, "It's a pity that this is wartime. Otherwise, on this day of reunion, we would surely have had a feast and a good chat."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Let's save this drink for now and have a proper drink after this battle."

Wen Mengsheng smiled and said, "Okay!"

Lin Chen chatted for a while longer before taking his leave. After all, the war was about to begin, and there were many things to do in the military camp, so he didn't have time to waste here.

Gong Jianying escorted Lin Chen out of the tent, and not far away they encountered the Thousand Demon Lord lying on a recliner.

After chatting with the Thousand Demon Lord for a while, I politely declined his invitation to a small gathering and returned to the camp.

Back at the Ninth Brigade's camp, wherever he went, intense gazes fell upon Lin Chen, filled with undisguised admiration.

legend!

Lin Chen is so young, yet he has managed to befriend so many Quasi-Saints, even to the point that they owe him favors. If I had heard of this before, I would have just said he was bragging. But now that it is happening right before my eyes, I have no choice but to believe it.

That's absolutely stunning.

Lin Chen returned to Team Three amidst admiring glances, only to be surrounded by a crowd as soon as he entered.

Lin Chen looked at the pairs of eyes burning with gossip, and helplessly spread his hands: "It was just a coincidence. This is my strength. Don't look at me like that. It's like I'm not even human..."
