The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 774 Anyone who provokes Tang Li must die!
Tang Li did not reach out.

"Even if you're going to give it as a gift, shouldn't you give it to your mother?"

Lin Chen smiled: "If Mother knew about this, she would definitely agree wholeheartedly. What she hopes for and what she lacks is not cultivation resources."

Tang Li thought for a moment, then stretched out her slender fingers and picked up a lotus seed.

"You've come up with a kind gesture, fine, I'll accept it. One is enough."

Seeing that Lin Chen wanted to say something, Tang Li explained, "These lotus seeds are not for eating, but for holding in the mouth during cultivation, especially when comprehending, to clear the mind and sharpen the intellect. One seed is enough, so I only need one."

Lin Chen suddenly realized that the lotus seeds were not for eating, but for putting in the mouth!

But if one is enough, why did Master Tang give me three?
Yourself?

Mother?

Tang Li?

Lin Chen seemed to understand something, and at the same time, he was secretly shocked. Could this be his true feelings?
A test?

Composing himself, Lin Chen retrieved the remaining two lotus seeds and smiled, "The cave master only gave them to me without explaining their purpose. I had to inquire with the guest house manager to find out the origin of the lotus..."

Tang Li stared at Lin Chen, her gaze much gentler than when they first met.

How long are you planning to stay?

Lin Chen replied, "I'll stay for a while, keep my mother company, and then leave."

Tang Li nodded and said, "Okay, come see me before you leave."

"it is good!"

Tang Li's tone returned to calm: "Go ahead."

Lin Chen stood up: "Goodbye, Aunt Tang."

Leaving the cave, Lin Chen glanced back at the now-closed cave and slowly exhaled.

Neither of them mentioned Lin Yuan from beginning to end; it was a sensitive topic that was difficult to discuss.

One lost their loved one, the other lost their father.

Lin Chen took off on his sword and left the cave.

Just after Lin Chen left, a middle-aged man flew up on a sword at the entrance of another cave not far from the main cave and headed away into the distance.

The middle-aged man arrived at Tian Shu Peak and landed at the entrance of a cave.

"Brother Yu, it's me, Bao Rui."

The cave entrance opened, and a handsome young man appeared at the door, looking at Bao Rui with a slight smile: "What is it?" Bao Rui whispered: "Senior Sister Tang's cave has a guest visiting."

The man smiled faintly: "Haven't she been in seclusion all these years, not seeing any guests? Who has gone and been turned away?"

Bao Rui glanced at the young man's face and cautiously replied, "Senior Sister Tang has seen him."

The man's smile froze, and his tone turned colder: "Who?"

Bao Rui answered in a low voice, "Lin Yuan's son, Lin Chen."

The man's expression changed drastically: "Lin Yuan's son?"

Bao Rui nodded: "He claimed to be a disciple of Hengshan Mountain in Nanyue and asked to see Miss Tang. However, he was refused by Senior Sister Tang. He then changed his story and said that he was Lin Yuan's son, Lin Chen, and asked to see Aunt Tang. Senior Sister Tang then came out and let him into the cave. As for what they talked about, I don't know. However, he didn't stay for long before coming out."

A fierce glint flashed in the man's eyes: "The old one died, and the young one has come. It's true that vengeful spirits never leave."

Bao Rui asked in a low voice, "Brother Yu, is there anything I can do?"

The man thought for a moment and said, "Since he is a disciple of Hengshan Mountain in Nanyue, he must have stayed in the guest house before. Go to the guest house now and ask around to see what this kid is here for."

Bao Rui nodded: "Okay, I'll go right away!"

Bao Rui mounted his sword and quickly headed towards the guest garden.

The man stood on the edge of the cliff, waiting quietly, his face cold and hard.

Bao Rui didn't waste much time and returned quickly, with a slightly strange expression on his face.

"what's wrong?"

Bao Rui whispered, "Song Peng wouldn't say anything before, but he only agreed after I mentioned Brother Yu's name. Lin Chen is a recently accepted disciple of the Stone Cave Master of Hengshan Mountain in Nanyue. He's delivering a message to the Stone Cave Master. He met with the Stone Cave Master early this morning, and it's said that the Cave Master even gifted him a Heavenly Lotus seed. After leaving the Divine Pool, he went to Senior Sister Tang's cave..."

The man's expression changed slightly: "Wasn't this kid abandoned in the human world? How come he's suddenly become the Stone Cave Master's personal disciple?"

Bao Rui shook his head: "Song Peng only knows this much, he doesn't know anything else."

The man's expression was cold: "Lin Yuan's bastard child would be better off dead like his father. It's a complete waste for the Heavenly Lotus Seed to fall into his hands!"

Bao Rui tentatively asked, "Should I secretly kill him?"

The man thought for a moment and said, "The identity of the Stone Cave Master's personal disciple is very important. Once the matter is exposed, the consequences will be severe. You can't do it yourself. Here's what you need to do: go find Daoist Lu. He owes me a life. Have him handle this matter. You keep an eye on Lin Chen. After he leaves, kill him in the wilderness and bring the lotus seeds back. Don't leave any evidence."

Bao Rui respectfully replied, "Yes."

The man's eyes gleamed, and his tone was sharp: "After killing him, take one of his tokens, find someone to lure that woman Feng Lan out, and kill them both. I want them to disappear from this world completely, just like Lin Yuan. Anyone who provokes Tang Li must die!"
