The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 388 If you want to know, come find me!

Do you like your father?

Lin Chen's expression became somewhat subtle.

This love triangle was already quite melodramatic, but now with another character added, it's become a love quadrangle?
This woman loved the father, and Guo Tang loved the mother, but the father didn't love the woman, and the mother didn't love Guo Tang either...

Lin Chen, unwilling to give up, asked, "She didn't give any background information?"

Gao Zhengqiu nodded: "Yes, she didn't reveal her background at all, but she must be very familiar with your father. I later made my own guess. Your father also appeared suddenly back then, and he was incredibly talented. No one knew where your father came from, so I think she and your father must have come from an unknown place."

Lin Chen's eyes widened: "The Unknown Land, where is that?"

Gao Zhengqiu shook his head: "I don't know either. I just heard someone mention it. They said that apart from the sects and powerful families in the world, there are some unknown places where cultivators gather. The reason it's called unknown is because you have no idea where they are. It's very mysterious and you can't find them at all. Only by getting the corresponding key can you find their location and enter them."

key?

Lin Chen suddenly remembered something and asked, "The Heavenly Revelation Jade?"

Gao Zhengqiu nodded: "Yes, the Tianqi Jade itself doesn't have much value. It's just a piece of jade after all. How much more expensive can it be? Its value comes from the meaning it represents. It's a key, a key to unlock the unknown and enter into it."

"There is a legend that cultivators in the Unknown Land can have long lives. They have mastered the art of immortality. So whenever a key to enter the Unknown Land appears, it is snatched up. Who in this world does not wish to live forever? Even if it is not the immortality in the legend, being able to extend one's life by a hundred or two hundred years is still amazing."

“If your father truly came from the Unknown Land, then he naturally has the right to enter and leave. However, your mother is from the Feng family in the capital, so she does not have the right to enter and leave. Therefore, your father’s intervention and winning the Heavenly Revelation Jade may have been to allow your mother to enter the Unknown Land with him.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen's long-standing doubts were finally answered.

"What else do you know?"

Gao Zhengqiu shook his head: "Some of these messages were told to me by Xi Shan back then, and some were my own guesses. As you know, I am just a Grandmaster, not even a Great Grandmaster, and I have no way of coming into contact with such a high level."

Lin Chen asked, "Xi Shan, does Guo Tang know about this?"

Gao Zhengqiu shook his head: "Xi Shan should know some things, and Guo Tang probably knows even more. I don't know if they know that woman. Xi Shan was just feeling resentful at the time, and when he saw me carrying him down the mountain, he said a few more words to me."

Lin Chen thought for a moment: "What if it's proven that what you said is true, and not something you made up to fool me?"

Gao Zhengqiu picked up the phone from the bedside table and scrolled through the call log: "Xi Shan can testify to all of this."

Lin Chen looked at the phone and said calmly, "Call him."

Gao Zhengqiu obediently dialed Xi Shan's number and put it on speakerphone. "Hello?"

Gao Zhengqiu said respectfully, "Mr. Xi, Lin Chen has come to see me."

Xi Shan was silent for two seconds: "Is he next to you?"

Gao Zhengqiu replied, "Yes, I have it on speakerphone."

Lin Chen interjected, "Five Dragons Sect, Xishan?"

Xi Shan said in a cold tone, "Lin Chen?"

Lin Chen asked, "You hunted down my parents back then, and you also want to kill me?"

Xi Shan answered crisply, "Yes, if I hadn't been held up by something back then, making me a little late, your family of three would have been reunited in the underworld long ago. Because I was late, your parents were rescued, and I was punished with ten years of hard labor for it..."

Lin Chen asked, "Do you know who took my parents away?"

"I know."

Xi Shan replied with a cold laugh, "I know, but I won't tell you. If you want to know, come find me yourself."

Lin Chen replied calmly, "Okay, then you wait here, I'll come find you."

Xi Shan laughed heartily: "Alright, I'll wait for you."

Xi Shan hung up the phone. Gao Zhengqiu looked at the silent Lin Chen and said cautiously, "Although I did hunt down your father back then, I didn't actually hurt him..."

Lin Chen raised his head and glanced at Gao Zhengqiu: "Back then, when that woman wanted to attack you, it was my father who stopped her?"

Gao Zhengqiu nodded, looking somewhat embarrassed: "Yes."

Lin Chen said calmly, "Since my father didn't take your life back then and even pleaded for you, I naturally won't make things difficult for you. Your life will be temporarily entrusted to you. If I find out later that you lied or hid anything from me, I will come back to find you."

Gao Zhengqiu breathed a long sigh of relief and quickly swore, "Every word I have said is true. If I have told a single lie, may I be struck by lightning and die a horrible death. You may come back anytime to take my life!"
