The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3459 Challenge Me to a Battle?
Inside the cave, Lin Chen was intently examining the jade slip, while Ning Hesheng leisurely drank tea beside him.

The jade slip in Lin Chen's hand recorded the development history of the Celestial Realm, which Lin Chen read with great interest.

Ning Hesheng stayed by Lin Chen's side because Lin Chen would have many questions while examining the jade slip, and Ning Hesheng was waiting to answer them.

The two decided to stay in the cave for a month and a half and try not to get into trouble outside, so Lin Chen read books while Ning Hesheng accompanied him.

"Ning Hesheng! Bring your slave out here!"

Suddenly, a loud shout rang out from outside, transmitted through the array of the cave.

Both of them looked up and exchanged a glance.

Lin Chen put away the jade slip and joked, "You're really in a sorry state! People are coming to your door looking for trouble."

Ning Hesheng looked embarrassed. Being yelled at like that in front of Lin Chen, without any respect, was indeed a bit humiliating.

"I'm going out to take a look. You stay here for now..."

Lin Chen stood up and replied, "Let's go together. Others have already dared to come and make a scene at the entrance of your cave. Hiding in your cave won't solve anything. What's meant to happen will happen eventually."

Ning Hesheng thought about it and agreed: "Okay, let's go together. I'll see who it is that's so rude."

A fierce glint flashed in Ning Hesheng's eyes as he strode toward the entrance of the cave.

Although he didn't have Zhou Yunfei's background, he still possessed remarkable strength thanks to his monstrous talent, which was his greatest asset.

As Ning Hesheng reached the doorway, his gaze turned cold as he looked at the group in the sky.

"Zhu Qidong, what are you doing here?"

Zhu Qidong said coldly, "I heard you captured a remarkable slave. I came to see just how remarkable he is."

Ning Hesheng said coldly, "What he is, he is my slave. It has nothing to do with you. What, do you want to be like Zhou Yunfei and try to forcibly seize my slaves?"

Zhu Qidong shook his head, his tone arrogant: "He's just a slave. No matter how powerful he is, he's still just a slave. Why would I bother to steal him?"

Ning Hesheng frowned: "Since you didn't come here to seize slaves, then what are you doing here?" Zhu Qidong raised his chin and said coldly: "I heard that you brought him back, speaking softly and gently all the way, and you even helped him borrow books from the library. This makes me a little suspicious. Is he a slave or are you a slave? I've never seen this situation before, so I came to ask."

Ning Hesheng coldly said, "Lin Chen possesses the ability to leap through the stars, which may be helpful to the Qiyun Sect in terms of travel in the future. The Vice Sect Master has already stated that Lin Chen should stay here and be treated as a disciple of the sect. Everyone should get along well with him and not bully him. I was just following the Vice Sect Master's orders. What did I do to offend you? It's none of your business. You're just sticking your mouth out of the cowshed!"

Zhu Qidong's face stiffened. Indeed, this matter had nothing to do with him.

He might mock Ning Hesheng a few times, but he couldn't use that as a reason to escalate the matter.

Chen Kai, standing nearby, chimed in support: "He is your slave, that's true, but your slave injured me. As a slave, daring to lay a hand on the noble Celestial Race is the biggest problem in itself."

Zhu Qidong's eyes lit up; he had finally found a reason.

"Yes, that's why I'm here!"

Zhu Qidong's gaze fell on Lin Chen behind Ning Hesheng, and he said coldly, "I'm not here to cause trouble for you, I'm here to cause trouble for him."

Ning Hesheng said coldly, "If you want to cause him trouble, you'll have to get past me first."

Zhu Qidong clicked his tongue in amazement: "I didn't believe them when they said that before, but now that I see it, you really do look like his nanny."

Ning Hesheng said in a deep voice, "If you came here just to have some pointless banter, then you can get lost."

Zhu Qidong laughed and said, "Didn't you say you wanted to treat him as a disciple of the sect? Then I'll use the sect's method for resolving conflicts. Your slave injured my friend Lu Kai. As a friend, I'll stand up for him and challenge your slave to a duel. Is that alright?"

Before Ning Hesheng could speak, Zhu Qidong spoke first: "Don't talk about who's targeting whom. All I know is that my brother Lu Kai had his arm cut off by a slave. In the territory of the Celestial Clan, within the sect's influence, a Celestial Clan disciple had his arm cut off by a slave from the lower realm and is still unharmed. Is there any justice left? Is there any law left?"

Zhu Qidong stretched out his hand and pointed at Lin Chen: "Kid, don't hide in the back and keep quiet. Since you dare to make a move, then don't back down. Are you like a woman who doesn't have any testicles and doesn't dare to stand up and fight?"

Lin Chen calmly asked, "You want to challenge me to a fight?"

Zhu Qidong nodded: "Yes, don't say I'm bullying you. Since you dared to make a move, it means you're very confident in your abilities..."
