The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 586 Mutant Little Mink?

Kowloon Walled City, Five-Colored Pond.

Lin Chen looked down at the colorful pool below, closed his eyes slightly, and indeed felt the rich spiritual energy in the air.

Lin Chen's gaze fell on the end of the pool, where there was a dark cave.

The place of spiritual energy that Zhou Yin found was in that cave. According to Zhou Yin, there should be an underground water vein in the cave, and there is a deep pool of water inside. The spiritual energy inside the cave is several times more concentrated than outside.

As night fell, Lin Chen emerged from the nearby forest like a ghost, while Zhou Yin, like a night owl, darted out of the dark cave, touched the rocks, and landed beside Lin Chen.

"Brother Chen!"

Lin Chen hummed in agreement, his gaze falling on Zhou Yin, and he smiled, "Actually, the spiritual energy in each spiritual energy place is limited. You're missing out by calling me here."

Zhou Yin chuckled and said, "It's better to share happiness than to enjoy it alone. Good things should be shared with good friends, that's how you're happier. Besides, if it weren't for Brother Chen helping me enter the cultivation world and helping me understand my own path, I would still be a small cultivator who has just entered the Inner Qi Realm and is unable to improve myself."

After a pause, Zhou Yin looked around and asked, "Where's my sister-in-law?"

Lin Chen chuckled and said, "If she's not coming, we don't need to worry about her."

Lin Chen and Chu Jiaxue had discussed this matter. Chu Jiaxue refused to come, firstly because, as Lin Chen said, the amount of spiritual energy was limited, and the more people came, the less everyone would improve; secondly, she had already joined Penglai and there was no need for her to compete with Lin Chen and Zhou Yin for this little bit of spiritual energy. Once the deadline was over, she would return to Penglai and have plenty of time to cultivate.

Lin Chen thought about it and agreed, so he didn't insist. Besides, Zhou Yin was the one who discovered the spiritual energy site, so he should at least consider her feelings.

It's like the host inviting you to dinner, but you bring your own guests. You'd feel a little embarrassed.

Zhou Yin looked slightly disappointed, but then her eyes lit up with joy.

Originally, I wanted to take this opportunity to see how outstanding Lin Chen's wife was, but now that she's not here, isn't it just me and Lin Chen?
Happy!
"Let's go!"

Illuminated by their flashlights, the two passed through the Five-Colored Pool and entered the cave.

In the center of the cave was a pool, surrounded by a large circle of rocks and tangled weeds. When Lin Chen shone his flashlight over it, he found that the weeds inside the cave were growing very lushly, green and full of life.

Zhou Yin led Lin Chen to the inner side of the pool. It was clear that Zhou Yin had already cleared the area; the weeds had been cleared to create a large open space, and there was a large bag of food and water next to it.

Zhou Yin took out a futon from the side and handed it to Lin Chen: "I have prepared water and food, so you can focus on your cultivation. If you want something hot to eat or take a bath, we can go out. There are hotels in the scenic area."

“Alright!” Time was of the essence, so after a brief exchange, the two began their cultivation.

Lin Chen activated the Vast Righteousness Technique, and spiritual energy flowed into his body like a spring, causing his strength to increase at a perceptible rate.

In the middle of the night, Lin Chen was awakened by a rustling sound.

Lin Chen opened his eyes, picked up his flashlight, and shone it toward the source of the sound, but only saw dense weeds.

The sound was coming from the dense weeds, and clearly something was moving through them.

"Brother Chen, don't worry, it's a small animal, like an otter."

Zhou Yin's voice rang out, and Lin Chen, while waving his flashlight to search, asked, "Have you seen her before?"

"Ah."

Zhou Yin explained, "At first, I was worried it was a venomous snake or something, so I was on guard and wanted to catch it. In the end, I found it. It was about the size of an adult cat. Its den was in the opposite rock wall. Every day it would go into the deep water of this pool to catch fish. It was a very good diver and could stay underwater for a long time..."

Lin Chen was immediately relieved. He had been worried that there might be some poisonous snakes hiding in the grass, and that it would be troublesome if it bit him while he was meditating.

Does it attack people?

Zhou Yin shook her head and said, "It is very wary of people and never comes near me. I originally wanted to catch it to see what it was, but it is very smart and incredibly fast. It would often dive into caves or underwater. I tried to catch it twice but failed, so I simply gave up. We can just be neighbors and live in peace."

Lin Chen asked curiously, "How fast?"

Zhou Yin laughed and said, "Like lightning, it shot out seven or eight meters in a flash, leaving only a blur. I wonder if this little guy's body has mutated because he has always lived in this spiritually rich place. Anyway, it's very powerful."

Mutations?

Lin Chen thought about it and realized it wasn't impossible. With such abundant spiritual energy, even ordinary weeds could grow to one or two meters tall. It wasn't incomprehensible that animals would exhibit mutations similar to enhanced forms.

"Since we're all at peace, let's continue being neighbors."

Although Lin Chen found the animal somewhat intriguing, he didn't feel compelled to try and catch it. He turned off the flashlight and closed his eyes again...
