The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3749 You can't have all the benefits.
This is good!
After listening to Xi Yunlang's introduction, Lin Chen perked up completely.

sure!
In any case, participating in this game of the gods is unlike other explorations of secret realms, which are accompanied by various dangers. In this game, at worst you can only lose and not get any rewards, but you won't lose your life.

Exploration can always be lucrative, but it also comes with enormous risks.

It might be very profitable, but it could also lead to failure.

For the vast majority of sages, such an opportunity would be an extremely difficult choice.

Whether you can get good rewards after going through so many hardships is a question, but in the game, you don't have to worry about that.

Either admit defeat or win and get the reward.

Without any damage, who wouldn't like that?

No wonder Yu Qianfan told Lin Chen in such a cheerful tone that attending the celebration and participating in the God Games might bring rich rewards.

"Alright, I'll give it a try and see if I can attend the Divine Banquet with you later?"

Xi Yunlang laughed and said, "I have a lot of confidence in you. After all, you are someone who cannot be predicted by common sense. If you participate, you might just win."

Lin Chen chuckled: "Thank you for your kind words. I'll give it a try."

Xi Yunlang glanced at Lin Chen and said in a low voice, "It's not that I don't want to help you, but the number of places for this banquet is very limited in the Holy Land. It was already difficult enough for me to get in on my own, and I was just an accessory. I didn't have any say at all, so don't think I'm not helping you."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "No, no, what are you thinking? I just wanted to find out more, but I never thought you would take me in."

Xi Yunlang comforted him in a low voice: "I asked around, and it's really just that. Most people are after the title, such as having dinner with my God in a certain month of a certain year, having asked me questions, or having chatted with my God."

"This title is certainly useful for ordinary people, but for truly capable people, it's just a worthless gimmick."

"Everyone knows about celebrations, but can eating a meal really change your destiny or make you stronger? Actually, no, it's just another experience to brag about."

Lin Chen looked at Xi Yunlang in surprise, not expecting someone of his status to say such a thing.

Given your role, shouldn't you have the utmost reverence for the gods?

Why are they even slandering them?
Xi Yunlang looked into Lin Chen's eyes, smiled, and said in a low voice, "Some things are just said but not understood. Of course, everyone will definitely support it enthusiastically, since this doesn't require any sacrifice. Under such circumstances, who wouldn't be supportive?"

Lin Chen stared at Xi Yunlang with a strange expression: "I thought that people from your Celestial Realm would have the utmost reverence, awe, and longing for the Celestial Gods, but after hearing what you say, it doesn't seem to be the case."

Xi Yunlang chuckled and said in a low voice, "Didn't I just say that before they became gods, weren't they just like you and me? They were all saints. They are gods now, which only means that they are more powerful than you and me. Other than that, there is no difference."

"Even the creator god, when hunted by the other gods, can be injured and die. Even gods don't dare claim to be immortal. So, when you think about it this way, what's the essential difference?"

"Ultimately, the gods are just more powerful versions of us, don't you agree?"

Lin Chen nodded; he agreed with this viewpoint.

The gods are indeed just more powerful cultivators; they will die just like everyone else if they are killed.

Isn't the creator god a living example?

I witnessed how he was almost killed, and how he gradually rebuilt his flesh and soul, eventually returning to the position of a god.

Normally, if he hadn't learned a hiding technique in the black hole, the fragments of his divine essence after his self-destruction would have been unable to escape the gods' search. If captured, they would have been completely annihilated. After his death, a new, puppet-like creator god would have been born.

When will this Gods Game be held?

Xi Yunlang replied, "The celebration will begin after the ceremony is completed and will last for a period of time. After the God Games are over, the Gods will descend to attend the grand event and have dinner with everyone. After that, the entire celebration will be over."

"The celebrations here will continue throughout the entire Gods Game phase, with all sorts of celebratory activities, but these have nothing to do with the people participating in the Gods Game."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "So, do you want to participate in the Gods' Game? After all, you already have the qualifications to participate in the meeting..."

"I won't participate."

Xi Yunlang laughed and said, "Snow Phoenix Palace is full of experts. I can't take all the benefits. I have to give others a chance, don't you think?"

Lin Chen nodded and smiled, "That makes sense."

"Xi Yunlang, let's go."

He heard the calls from the others in Xuefeng Palace behind him. Xi Yunlang turned around and responded, then smiled and said, "I've been here for quite a while. I'll come find you for tea later."

"it is good!"

After Xi Yunlang left, Lin Chen and Huo Ling Shuang exchanged a glance, then continued their stroll.

Huo Ling Shuang transmitted her voice to Lin Chen: "Won't this alarm the Heavenly God? After all, attacking the Holy Land Elder and the Vice Sect Master before the celebration is quite serious. What if the Heavenly God feels that he has been humiliated and wants to take action personally?"

Lin Chen was also a little unsure: "It shouldn't be a big problem, after all, so many days have passed."

Huo Ling Shuang whispered, "That's good. The thought of the gods intervening made me a little uneasy."

"Why are you panicking?"

Lin Chen comforted him, "Didn't Xi Yunlang say that they are just more powerful cultivators?"

Huo Ling Shuang hummed in agreement and didn't ask any further questions.

Huo Ling Shuang had helped gather information before, but she hadn't participated in the attack on Zhao Tianjue and Liu Xian, so she didn't know how Lin Chen had managed it.

Zhao Tianjue and Liu Xian are so powerful, yet Lin Chen managed to take them down so quietly?

Although Huo Ling Shuang was curious, she did not ask any further questions.

Although she knew some of Lin Chen's secrets, and Lin Chen treated her as a friend, friends should also have boundaries, especially someone like Lin Chen, who has one trump card after another in his hand, making him incredibly mysterious.

If he doesn't bring it up, then don't ask. If it's convenient for him to tell you, he'll tell you himself, just like with the Wolong Sect and the Holy Domain.

Huo Ling Shuang is probably the most knowledgeable and free member of the Celestial Race in the entire Celestial Realm regarding Lin Chen's secrets. Others who know Lin Chen's secrets are either being controlled and working for him, or imprisoned in the Linglong Tower, never to leave.

Huo Ling Shuang changed the subject: "In the God of War game, I wonder if it's possible to team up..."
