The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3376 A blessing in disguise?

The Great Wilderness Palace.

Zhuang Susu looked at Lin Chen apologetically: "I'm sorry, Lin Chen, I originally thought that Master could give you some compensation, but..."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "You don't need to be like that. What I said before was the truth, not just politeness. We're friends, so don't stand on ceremony."

Zhuang Susu looked troubled: "I'm afraid the Five Saints won't step forward to take charge anymore. What can we do now?"

Lin Chen had some plans in mind, but he couldn't tell Zhuang Susu about them. After all, even if he did, she wouldn't be able to help and might even reveal his biggest secret.

If people knew that Lord Meishi had now submitted to him, wouldn't it be immediately clear who was targeting Qingluan Immortal Lord?
"You stay in the Great Wilderness Palace for now. I'll go back to the Immortal Realm to check on their situation. If they can't manage, then we'll have no choice but to mind our own business. After all, this isn't a situation that a quasi-saint like us can change."

Zhuang Susu thought about it and agreed, sighing helplessly, "This war was about to end, but I never expected such a turn of events. It's really... sigh!"

Lin Chen comforted him, "We've done our best and have a clear conscience. As for the rest, we can only leave it to fate."

After bidding farewell to Zhuang Susu, Lin Chen and his two companions left the Great Wilderness Palace.

"Where are we going now?"

"Let's go back to the Crimson Immortal Realm first, then we can talk about other things."

"it is good!"

The three returned to the Crimson Immortal Realm military camp. Everything in the camp was as usual, clearly indicating that news of what happened in the Demon Realm had not yet reached them.

Lin Chen went straight to Mu Tianjun, who was quite surprised to see him: "Why are you back again?"

Lin Chen asked in a low voice, "Has the Emperor or Senior Hunyuan returned?"

Mu Tianjun's eyes narrowed, and he asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"

Lin Chen replied, "The Lord of the Abyss set a trap to lure the Five Saints deep into the territory. Then, he descended in his true form using the ten purple crystal pillars that he had hidden in advance. The Five Saints suffered a crushing defeat and were almost all killed. Afterwards, Lord Ao Jue and Lord Fen Jin attacked the Quasi-Saint camp and killed many Quasi-Saints. The situation is now completely out of control."

Mu Tianjun was taken aback: "Is the Emperor seriously injured?"

Lin Chen replied, "I rescued Zhuang Susu from the Demon Lord, and then went to the Great Wilderness Palace to meet the Great Wilderness Saint. I learned the details of the battle from him. It is said that even the Emperor's Dharma Form was destroyed, and his injuries were probably not minor."

Mu Tianjun's expression changed drastically: "He hasn't returned yet, could something have happened to him?"

Lin Chen guessed, "I reckon he's hiding somewhere healing, after all, he's injured so badly..."

Since the Immortal Emperor hasn't returned, are you worried about being hunted down?

After all, this is a military camp, so it's reasonable for the Immortal Emperor to return here. It's also entirely possible that Lord Aojue and Lord Fenjin came here to hunt down the Immortal Emperor, so the Immortal Emperor simply didn't come back.

"The military camp here is garrisoned with too many troops, making it an easy target for Ao Jue and Fen Jin. I suggest that the troops leave this place and set up camp in batches. Otherwise, if the two of them manage to sneak here, it will be a one-sided bloody massacre."

After listening to Lin Chen's suggestion, Mu Tianjun hesitated for only two seconds before nodding and saying, "You're right, I'll order everyone to retreat right away."

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Although there weren't many immortals or people related to him left stationed here, he didn't want them to die in vain. After all, they were all heroes for gathering here to fight the invading abyssal demons. Mu Tianjun acted swiftly and quickly issued the order to retreat in batches and at different points. Then, all the troops began to retreat in an orderly manner, and finally, Mu Tianjun and the others also began to retreat.

The last to leave, Mu Tianjun, found Lin Chen and said, "Let's retreat too."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I'm going to the Demon Realm to check out the situation there. I won't be retreating with everyone. Anyway, I can run fast."

Mu Tianjun didn't force him, since Lin Chen possessed the great supernatural power of star leap.

Mu Tianjun turned to leave, but then stopped and turned back, saying, "The time for the place of opportunity is almost up, and the list is not yet finalized. Now that this has happened, I think it might be a chance to turn the tide."

"If we had even one capable fighter, we wouldn't be being relentlessly hunted down by those two demon lords, Ao Jue and Fen Jin. Once I've made arrangements for everyone, I'll try to contact the Supreme Lord and arrange this matter as soon as possible."

"If things are confirmed here, I will send you a signal via a token. Then you should come back as soon as possible to avoid missing out. After all, if you miss this opportunity, who knows how many years it will be before you get another chance?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Okay!"

When Mu Tianjun mentioned the place of opportunity, Lin Chen had some thoughts.

The previous battle went smoothly, with the five saints advancing all the way. The Immortal Emperor hesitated about the matter of the Land of Opportunity, perhaps because he felt it was unnecessary. If there were a few more saints, wouldn't that lower his status?

But now the situation has changed drastically. They have completely lost their fighting power. No one on the battlefield can resist the advance of the abyss demons. Under such circumstances, wouldn't it be a great thing for the entire immortal and demon realms if a few more saints could emerge?
The Immortal Emperor had refused to agree before, but surely he should agree now?

If that's the case, then I've actually turned misfortune into blessing.

Gu Yuexi and the other two women stayed with Lin Chen. Thus, the five women reunited after their last separation, but this time, they were all quasi-saints.

A family with six near-saints!

When Chu Jiaxue and Nalan Wushuang advanced to Quasi-Saint, many people paid close attention. After all, it's rare to have two Quasi-Saints in one family, so people subconsciously wondered if they had some secret.

However, upon closer examination, they discovered that Chu Jiaxue had absorbed the power of faith, and Nalan Wushuang was born with a Dao physique, both of whom seemed quite special. After all, such people are extremely rare, and they stopped paying attention to them.

Lin Chen already had a great reputation in the military, so when he broke through to the next realm, although everyone marveled at the speed of his breakthrough, they also felt that it was to be expected.

But if the news of the three women entering the Quasi-Saint realm were to leak out, it would likely arouse suspicion. If you didn't have some secrets, how could your whole family enter the Quasi-Saint realm?

However, even if the outside world finds out that Lin Chen's family has entered the Quasi-Saint realm, it doesn't matter. Lin Chen can frankly say that it was because of the Azure Nether Divine Fruit, and now the Azure Nether Divine Fruit has been used up.

Besides, with six quasi-saints in one family, who would dare to provoke them, except for saints?

Originally, Lin Chen was worried about conflict with Qingluan Immortal Lord, so he held back his strength. But now that Lin Chen has the most powerful assistant, Enchantress Lord, he has nothing to fear.

The Five Saints have run out of kryptonite, so even if Lin Chen were to face a Saint now, he would still have the confidence to fight.

"What are we going to do now? Are we really going back to the Demon Realm?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "I guess those two demon lords might come here. I'm going to wait and see if I can give them a surprise..."
