The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3360 Her mind has changed!

Lin Chen certainly couldn't tell Mu Tianjun the truth. After all, Mu Tianjun was still the Immortal Emperor's loyal subordinate.

Perhaps for various reasons, Mu Tianjun has different opinions about the three immortal lords, and therefore may feel some sympathy for himself, but this does not mean that he will stand on his side if something really happens.

He always stood on the side of the Immortal Emperor!
This is like a dynasty in the human world. The Immortal Emperor is the emperor, and Mu Tianjun is the emperor's trusted minister. The three princes are vying for the position of crown prince. Because of some things, I have caught the eye of Mu Tianjun. The three princes have also tried to win me over, and there have been disputes between us.

In such a difficult situation, Mu Tianjun would sympathize with him, but he would not confront the three princes directly, let alone help him deal with them.

Lin Chen's explanation was accepted by Mu Tianjun.

He had known for a long time that there was something fishy about the trip to Xinghai, but since Lin Chen himself hadn't said anything, and neither had Qingluan Immortal Lord, why would he bring it up?
Besides, is he the only one with clear eyes in this matter?
Would the Celestial Emperor not know this?
The Immortal Emperor gave Lin Chen the Immortal Emperor's Token. Is this a form of compensation?
Otherwise, the Immortal Emperor could have simply given Lin Chen a one-time magic treasure containing his supernatural abilities, just like the other saints did. Why would he have given him the Immortal Emperor's Token?

The Immortal Emperor's decree appeared as if the Immortal Emperor himself had arrived.

Even though the three divine powers within the Immortal Emperor's Decree have been used up, the Immortal Emperor's Decree is still valid. With the Immortal Emperor's Decree, Lin Chen can roam freely throughout the entire Immortal Realm!
"The Emperor has been busy dealing with the Abyss Demons, and there has been no clear result in this matter. However, the Emperor did summon the Azure Phoenix Immortal Lord alone. The Azure Phoenix Immortal Lord is said to be quite excited upon his return, but I dare not draw any conclusions as to whether the Emperor has made a final decision."

A private audience, are you excited?
What could possibly make someone as shrewd as the Azure Phoenix Immortal Lord so excited, other than attaining sainthood?

It seems I need to move up the time to deal with Qingluan Immortal Lord. Otherwise, if Qingluan Immortal Lord goes to cultivate with the Immortal Emperor after the Crimson Demon Realm War ends, wouldn't I miss my chance?

After all, the Celestial Emperor had said that this opportunity was absolutely to become a saint, and not a fake saint like Cheng Tuo, but a genuine saint.

Once the Azure Phoenix Immortal Lord becomes a saint, even if the Enchantress Lord takes action, he will no longer be able to kill him.

I need to make some careful plans.

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Then it seems there is definite news. Otherwise, why would I be so happy?"

Mu Tianjun looked at the smiling Lin Chen, a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

He had many dealings with the three immortal lords, heard a lot about them, and understood their character better.

The advancement of the Azure Phoenix Immortal Lord to the Saint Realm may not be good news for Lin Chen!
After staring at him for two seconds, Mu Tianjun said, "Didn't you refuse to serve anyone before? Back then you weren't a Quasi-Saint. Now that you are a Quasi-Saint, you can go anywhere in the world. Why are you suddenly making a choice?"

Mu Tianjun was actually a little confused. He didn't understand why Lin Chen had suddenly changed his mind.

A desperate measure?

Lin Chen knew that Mu Tianjun was aware of his past thoughts, so he smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, it's not that I want to choose, or that I want to find a backer, but sometimes, I have no choice."

After Lin Chen said that, Mu Tianjun understood.

The Azure Phoenix Immortal Lord has most likely taken a liking to Lin Chen. Given his personality, he certainly wouldn't let Lin Chen help his two fellow disciples. And if he were to become a Saint, Lin Chen, who possesses the great supernatural power of Starry Sky Leap, would become a real eyesore.

If Lin Chen doesn't pledge allegiance to Qingluan Immortal Lord before he becomes a Saint, he might simply disappear from this world without a trace once Qingluan achieves Sainthood. Of course, Qingluan Immortal Lord isn't the only one watching Lin Chen; which Saint, including the Emperor, isn't keeping an eye on him?
The ability to leap through the stars is indeed powerful, but it can also easily lead to trouble.

Mu Tianjun still offered a reminder: "Star Jump is a good thing, but without the strength to protect it, a good thing might bring disaster."

Lin Chen understood Mu Tianjun's subtext and felt a sense of gratitude.

As a confidant of the Celestial Emperor, it was already very kind of him to take the initiative to remind me.

In the past, Lin Chen would have been quite flustered. After all, the war between the immortal and demonic realms and the abyss demons was about to end. Once these saints separated, those who had designs on him might try to harm him.

But now that Lin Chen has subdued the Enchantress Lord, he no longer needs to worry as much as before.

Whoever wants to harm you will do so alone and secretly, not in collusion with others.

If they wanted to take the Star Chart Spirit, they could just slap themselves to death; that wouldn't work. They would have to capture them alive, and under those circumstances, they would be absolutely safe.

The Enchantress Lord might be a little weaker than the Immortal Emperor or the Demon Emperor, but she should be able to withstand a few attacks, which would be enough for her to use Starry Sky Leap to escape.

Oh, right, they have kryptonite, so we should be wary of that.

"Thank you for the reminder, Palace Master. I will discuss it with Senior Dahuang later. After all, this thing doesn't really belong to me; it's just something he's temporarily storing here."

Mu Tianjun hummed in agreement, then brought up the matter of the place of opportunity: "That place is about to open, probably in two or three months. Let's wait a bit longer, the Emperor hasn't given any instructions yet."

It's only been two or three months, and they still haven't said anything?

A bad feeling welled up in Lin Chen's heart. Could it be that the Immortal Emperor had changed his mind again because he saw that the battle situation was improving and victory was in sight?

However, regardless of the circumstances, this matter was decided by the Immortal Emperor's word, and Mu Tianjun was merely an executor and a messenger. Even if Lin Chen asked Mu Tianjun for help, it would be useless.

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait and see. I hope it's good news."

Mu Tianjun remained silent, a slight shadow playing across his eyes.

In fact, the Land of Opportunity was about to open, and as the person in charge, he had already submitted a list as instructed by the Immortal Emperor. This list included quasi-saints who had made contributions in the war between the immortal and demon realms and in the battle against the abyss demons.

According to the Immortal Emperor's previous intention, since these people are willing to shed blood and risk their lives for the Immortal Realm, they should be given a chance to enter the Land of Opportunities. In addition, since so few people entered the Land of Opportunities before, and some couldn't even get in at all, the list should be relaxed this time, with as many people as possible.

More people, more opportunities—what if someone gets allowed in?

What if someone becomes a saint?
The battle is so dangerous now that even with the combined forces of the immortals and demons, they still don't have the upper hand. If more quasi-saints could break through to sainthood, wouldn't that greatly increase the power to resist the abyss demons?
However, when Mu Tianjun submitted the list, the Immortal Emperor made no comment, only saying, "I understand, I'll take a look first." And that was the end of the matter.

How could Mu Tianjun not guess the Immortal Emperor's thoughts?
He couldn't speak ill of the Immortal Emperor to Lin Chen, so he could only comfort Lin Chen and tell him to wait a little longer. But he knew very well in his heart that, given the Immortal Emperor's character, if the war continued to go so smoothly, it would be unlikely that the people on the list would be able to enter the Land of Opportunities!
