The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3316 This journey is going to be interesting.

Demonic cultivator?

Lin Chen pursed his lips. "You're really good with words."

To snatch this mission, you even revealed that you are a demon beast cultivator. How can anyone refute you now?
Burning Sea Immortal Lord originally wanted to speak, but after glancing at Seven-Colored Immortal Lord and then at Azure Phoenix Immortal Lord who was determined to win, he simply kept quiet.

It's not that he didn't want to take it, it's that he couldn't!
Seven-Colored Immortal Lord and Lin Chen have a past relationship, so they are naturally the most suitable partners. Azure Phoenix Immortal Lord is a demon cultivator who has attained enlightenment and deals with star beasts. Whether this identity is useful or not is another matter, but since the other party has put forward these conditions, he has no way to compete.

Seven-Colored Immortal Lord retorted, "There are plenty of demon cultivators in the world. Junior Brother, using this as a reason is a bit far-fetched. If demon cultivators could gain the favor and good treatment of star beasts, then we could just send any demon to them, wouldn't that work?"

Qingluan Immortal Lord smiled and said, "There are many demons in the world, but I am the only disciple of the Immortal Emperor who is also a demon. It should be appropriate for me to go on behalf of my master."

Seven-Colored Immortal Lord frowned, about to say something more, but the Immortal Emperor waved his hand, stopping the two from arguing: "Alright."

Both the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord and the Azure Phoenix Immortal Lord fell silent, turned around and bowed to the Immortal Emperor, awaiting his decision.

The Immortal Emperor's gaze swept back and forth between the two, finally settling on Seven-Colored Immortal Lord's face: "Seven-Colored, your strength was previously sealed. Although I helped you unseal it, you were still injured. You should stay here and recuperate. Let Qingluan go this time."

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord's eyes showed obvious disappointment, but he dared not disobey the order and could only bow and obey: "Yes, Master!"

He really wanted to go. Firstly, he could travel with Lin Chen, his savior, and their friendship would grow rapidly along the way. Even if he didn't recruit Lin Chen as his subordinate, wouldn't it be the same if they became friends?

Putting aside his status as a savior, Lin Chen is a quasi-saint over a hundred years old. This alone is enough to make him worthy of being treated as an equal by the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord and treated with utmost respect.

Besides, although this mission sounds very unreliable and what we can get is also very uncertain, if we can really get some important information about the Abyss Demon Clan by going to the ancestral land of the Starry Sky Demon Beast Clan, and it can play a huge role on the battlefield, then he and Lin Chen will be great heroes!

Unfortunately, Master chose Qingluan.

Although the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord was quite unwilling, he had no choice but to accept it.

In contrast to the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord's disappointment, the Azure Phoenix Immortal Lord's eyes were filled with barely suppressed joy. He cupped his hands and said, "Azure Phoenix will certainly follow Master's instructions, cooperate well with Lin Chen, complete this mission, and strive to bring back good news for everyone."

The Immortal Emperor nodded in satisfaction: "This matter is of great importance, so do not act recklessly. If you can bring back valuable information, you and Lin Chen will both be highly commended!"

"Yes!"

Qingluan Immortal Lord turned to look at Lin Chen: "Lin Chen, I will fully cooperate with you on this trip. If there is anything you need me to do, just let me know."

Lin Chen felt a complex mix of emotions as he watched Qingluan Immortal Lord being appointed by the Immortal Emperor as the special envoy to accompany him to the ancestral land of the Star Demon Clan.

Qingluan Immortal Lord is the prime suspect in the case of harming Gu Yue.

He had been trying to find out what was going on, but now the Azure Phoenix Immortal Lord wanted to travel with him to the ancestral land of the Starry Sky Beast Clan.

This situation has become rather delicate.

If the Azure Phoenix Immortal Lord is truly the culprit who plotted to harm Gu Yue and seize the Linglong Pagoda, then is there anything I can do on this journey?

If Qingluan Immortal Lord is merely the Immortal Emperor's front man, doing the dirty work for him, then why did the Immortal Emperor specifically request Qingluan Immortal Lord to accompany him this time? Is there some other purpose behind it?

This trip probably won't be so boring.

While thinking to himself, Lin Chen remained polite on the surface: "You're too kind, Immortal Lord." The matter was thus settled. The Immortal Emperor asked, "Lin Chen, when do you plan to depart?"

Lin Chen replied, "Traversing the endless sea of ​​stars will take a long time, and continuous star jumps are also a great drain and burden. I need to make some preparations first, such as pills, which will probably take some time."

The Immortal Emperor spoke without hesitation: "What do you need? Make a list. Mu Tian, ​​you take care of it for him. You should set off as soon as possible. The sooner you understand the details of the Abyss Demons, the less the Immortal Realm will suffer from their ravages."

Since the Immortal Emperor has said so, Lin Chen naturally won't stand on ceremony.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will set off as soon as possible."

The Immortal Emperor nodded: "The quality of an army is more important than its quantity. You two are both very strong. Discuss and handle any problems yourselves. Return soon!"

"Yes!"

The Celestial Emperor waved his hand: "You may go, Qingluan, you stay."

Lin Chen and the others left the Immortal Emperor's residence. Mu Tianjun gave Lin Chen a subtle look and said, "Just write the list and send it to me."

Lin Chen chuckled: "It might be a bit too taxing."

Mu Tianjun snorted, "Go ahead and drive. As long as you get things done, everything will be fine."

If things are done well, that's fine; if things aren't done well, then that's unacceptable.
I won't take responsibility!
Lin Chen immediately reneged: "I can only say I'll do my best. Didn't Chizai say that we might not be able to go to the ancestral land or see the clan leader? My personal prediction is that we might be able to meet Tia somewhere and ask him to pass on a message to the clan leader about the Abyss Demons. That's the best outcome I can think of."

"I will definitely handle things seriously, but if things don't turn out well, you can't blame me. Isn't Qingluan Immortal Lord traveling with me? If anything happens, he'll definitely make the decisions. He's the Immortal Emperor's personal disciple. What can I compare to him? What can I do to take the lead..."

Mu Tianjun was amused by Lin Chen's joking words: "Are you that afraid of taking responsibility?"

Lin Chen answered frankly, "I will accept responsibility if it is mine, but if it is not mine and someone insists on putting the blame on me, then I will not accept it."

Mu Tianjun patted Lin Chen on the shoulder: "Alright, just do your job well. It doesn't matter if you don't get anything. After all, it's just an exploration. No one can say for sure that you will get anything. And no one will punish you if you don't get anything."

Lin Chen chuckled and lowered his voice: "Even if we're going to convict someone, we should convict Qingluan Immortal Lord first. With him around, how could it be my turn?"

As they were talking, the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord walked over, and Mu Tianjun stopped talking and turned to leave.

Lin Chen turned his head: "Immortal Lord!"

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord sighed: "Are you busy?"

Lin Chen replied, "It's alright. Since the Emperor has given the order, I'll just write a list. There's no rush for anything else."

The Seven-Colored Immortal Lord smiled slightly: "Since you're not busy, come sit with me for a while, I'll treat you to a drink... Don't worry, it'll just be a small drink, consider it a farewell gift for you, it won't interfere with your business."

Lin Chen had long wanted to have a chat with the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord, and now that the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord had taken the initiative to invite him, it was exactly what he wanted.

"Alright, Immortal Lord, you're treating me to drinks. This is something most people would beg for, so I won't stand on ceremony!"
