The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 444 The Hermit of the Hidden World

"Yes, do you know who she is?"

Lin Chen stared intently at Zhang Yun. Zhang Yun's shocked expression and her accurate description of the mother and daughter's accommodation location proved that she must know something.

Zhang Yun shook her head: "I don't know."

Lin Chen frowned and asked suspiciously, "What do you know that you can't tell me?"

Zhang Yun looked at Lin Chen with a subtle expression: "Didn't she tell you her identity?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "No, she just asked the waiter to give me the things, including something that should be a token. She said it could help me solve a problem."

Zhang Yun's eyes suddenly lit up, revealing a strong sense of envy.

Lin Chen told Zhang Yun about this because her fate was tied to his; if he died, she would most likely not survive either. Therefore, he wasn't worried about what Zhang Yun might do to him.

Is there anything you want to tell me?

Zhang Yun sighed: "I don't really know much. I only know that the woman came from an unknown place in Cangshan and had a transcendent status. As for what she came to the Southwest to do, she didn't say, and we didn't dare to ask. After the Southwest meeting, she left and we don't know where she went."

Cangshan?

Suddenly, Lin Chen recalled the words Ma Mingpeng had uttered when he treated Ma Mingpeng, who maintained the appearance of a middle-aged man, at the Ma family home.

Cangshan Mountain... Entrance...

Unknown lands...

Could it be that the entrance Ma Mingpeng mentioned that day was located in an unknown place in Cangshan?

My father came from Kunlun Mountain, which is also from an unknown place. In other words, there is more than one unknown place.
No wonder the mysterious woman said that if I encountered any problems, I could call the number she gave me and she could help me solve them.

Lin Chen thought for a moment and asked, "Is the Unknown Land a place where one is a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm or above?"

Zhang Yun explained, "The Unknown Lands can be understood as secluded places inhabited by reclusive individuals. It's not that everyone there is a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm or higher, but there are definitely powerful individuals among them. They live in isolation, like a paradise, rarely interacting with the world. However, if necessary, they can emerge, just like the woman you met." Lin Chen asked curiously, "How many Unknown Lands are there in the world?"

Zhang Yun smiled wryly and explained, "I don't know about that. The Unknown Land is like an illusion hidden in mysterious mist. You can't see it or touch it. Only those who come into contact with it will know. Cangshan is located in the southwest. Perhaps that's why that woman came to the Southwest Association."

"Although we don't know how many unknown places there are, there is definitely more than one. This is like how the poor will never understand what the rich are like. Even if they live in the same world, they are actually two straight lines that will never intersect."

Since he had finally encountered someone who understood the Unknown Lands, Lin Chen couldn't help but ask a few more questions: "Can ordinary people like us enter the Unknown Lands?"

Zhang Yun replied, "It is said that it is possible, but one must obtain permission from the owner of the Unknown Land and be granted a pass to enter. However, this is just a legend, and I do not know whether it is true or not."

Pass?
Lin Chen subconsciously thought of his Apocalypse Jade. Could it be that the Apocalypse Jade was a pass to some unknown place, or rather... a ticket?
Lin Chen asked, "Do you know anything else about the Unknown Land?"

Zhang Yun shook her head: "I have never dealt with the unknown places. Everything I've heard is hearsay and cannot be taken as fact."

Lin Chen nodded: "Okay, go ahead. I'll call you if anything comes up."

Zhang Yun nodded: "Okay, I'll wait for your call."

After Zhang Yun left, Lin Chen rubbed his chin. Zhang Yun's attitude at the end seemed much better than before.
Although she had been forced to come to Xijing to help before, she was furious and looked very unhappy. But after this conversation, her attitude softened a lot.
Because that mysterious woman gave him a Divine Essence Pill and a token?

Because he had come into contact with people from an unknown place?

In any case, this is a good thing; at least it seems that she is less resistant to herself.

Lin Chen forced Zhang Yun to come to Xijing to act as his henchman, which was a helpless move. After all, the Wang family had a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm. If it were just him, no matter how powerful he was, he would only be a Grandmaster and could not be a match for an Innate Grandmaster.

Now that Zhang Yun is here, I do have the strength to challenge the Wang family. However, Zhang Yun is still an external force, and I still need to work hard to improve my own strength. Otherwise, when facing these powerful families with Grandmasters of the Innate Realm, my strength will ultimately seem too weak.

His ultimate goal, that guy from the Five Dragons Sect, is a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm!

Regardless of whether Zhang Yun can handle it, this matter should be handled personally by me, as her son, for it to be more meaningful...
