The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3510 Reencounter with Zhao Muran

"Is Elder Chiba a saint?"

"Correct!"

The middle-aged man replied, "A very powerful saint. Although there is only one saint in Chiba City, Elder Chiba, Chiba City is renowned far and wide. Even saints dare not cause trouble in Chiba City."

Ning Hesheng asked, "You said that there is only one sage in Qianye City, which means that the young master of Qianye City is not a sage?"

The middle-aged man said, "Yes, he is a Quasi-Saint. He is very strong and has few rivals among Quasi-Saints."

After a pause, the middle-aged man said in a low voice, "Sha Qianhe is the only son of Elder Qianye. Elder Qianye dotes on Sha Qianhe, which has fostered Sha Qianhe's arrogant, ruthless, and vicious personality. Anyone who provokes him will die a terrible death."

"Not only is Elder Qianye incredibly powerful, but he is also a close friend of Zhou Yang, an elder of the Water God Temple..."

Ning Hesheng nodded: "Thank you for reminding me. One last question, where is Chiba Castle?"

The middle-aged man told him the location of Chiba City, and Ning Hesheng readily gave him the promised reward.

After the middle-aged man left, Ning Hesheng turned to look at Lin Chen.

"Old Man Chiba and the elder of the Water God Temple are good friends. No wonder Sha Qianhe was able to use the back door of the Water God Temple and even get that appraiser to cooperate with him in doing evil. This person has a powerful background. It will probably not be easy to deal with him."

Lin Chen thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to Qianye City."

Duanmu asked, "If we're going to make a move, wouldn't it be better to rob people outside? It would be too dangerous to do it once we get to Chiba City."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "I didn't intend to make a move. I just wanted to try and get him to hand over the Spirit of the Great Dao himself."

Ning Hesheng blinked in confusion: "How could he possibly hand over the Spirit of the Great Dao?"

Lin Chen chuckled: "What if it were his father, Elder Qianye, who were asking him for the Spirit of the Great Dao?"

Ning Hesheng's eyes widened in shock as he exclaimed, "You're planning to have Lord Meishi transform into the appearance of Elder Qianye?"

"Yes."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "But Lord Meishi has never seen Elder Qianye and doesn't know what he looks like, so it's not easy for him to transform into her. Therefore, I plan to go to Qianye City first and find a way to let Lord Meishi meet Elder Qianye. Then I will transform into Elder Qianye's appearance to intercept Sha Qianhe in advance and find an excuse to make him hand over the Spirit of the Great Dao..."

"wonderful!"

Ning Hesheng gave a thumbs up and praised, "The Enchantress is a saint herself. It is naturally difficult for her to be recognized when she transforms into the appearance of Elder Qianye. Since her own father has spoken, Sha Qianhe will definitely not be on guard and will hand over the Spirit of the Great Dao."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Let's give it a try. If we succeed, won't we get a free portion of the Great Dao Spirit?"

Ning Hesheng thought about it carefully and realized that there was indeed no risk involved. After all, they weren't from around here; they were just like tourists on a journey. Even if they failed and got into trouble, they could simply escape by jumping through the stars.

Even if Old Man Chiba is incredibly powerful, can he possibly catch up with Star Jump?

"After Sha Qianhe successfully exchanges for the Spirit of the Great Dao, he will definitely return to Qianye City and go into seclusion under the protection of Elder Qianye. After all, this is the only way to ensure his safety during seclusion. As long as we arrive in Qianye City before them and are well-prepared, the chances of success are very high."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Let's go!"

The three of them rushed towards Chiba City, and after about ten days, they arrived at Chiba City.

After paying the entrance fee, the three entered Chiba Castle.

Chiba City is very large and prosperous, with cultivators coming and going on the main streets.

The three checked into the hotel and then inquired about the old man Chiba.

Elder Chiba lives in the city lord's mansion and rarely goes out or appears in public, making him quite mysterious. "It seems unlikely that I can secretly observe Elder Chiba's appearance; I'll probably have to visit him openly."

Lin Chen turned to Duanmu and asked, "You are a sage, after all. You should be able to find a reason to visit him. Even if he is perfunctory, it doesn't matter. It's just a meeting anyway."

Duanmu nodded: "We can give it a try, but what reason could we give?"

Lin Chen asked, "Do sages also discuss the Dao? Elder Qianye is powerful and renowned. It is quite reasonable for you to come and visit him out of admiration."

Duanmu nodded: "That's acceptable."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Then I'll leave this matter to you. We won't go. Although the Enchantress can transform into your appearance, the transformation is ultimately fake. She's not a Celestial God. Elder Qianye is so powerful; there's no guarantee that something won't go wrong..."

Duanmu replied, "There's no problem with my visit, but I've exchanged photos with Sha Qianhe. If they verify the information later, they might connect it to me."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Your title as the Valley Master of Tianwen Valley is now just a name. Even if they make the connection, so what? First, there's no evidence that we did it. Second, we took the things and ran away. They'll have nowhere to look for us."

Duanmu Wen thought about it and agreed. If they wanted to go to Tianwen Valley to look for it, then let them go.

"Okay, I'll go later."

After making some preparations, Duanmu Wen formally visited the city lord's mansion to pay his respects to Elder Qianye.

As Duanmu Wen was waiting, two people came out from inside. One was an elderly man with silver hair, and the other was a young woman who was quite beautiful.

If Lin Chen and Ning Hesheng were here, they would definitely recognize this young woman as Zhao Muran of the Black Palace, whom they had fought in the trial grounds before. After entering the Celestial Realm, she had offered to buy Lin Chen, but ultimately failed.

The silver-haired old man was Zhao Tianjue, the seventh elder of the Black Emperor Palace, who was also Zhao Muran's grandfather. He was a renowned and powerful saint.

Duanmu Wen did not recognize the two men, but he recognized the Black Palace insignia on their black robes, and his heart skipped a beat.

The Black Palace is a powerful sect, so why would their people appear in Chiba City?
The Black Palace is quite far from here.

Zhao Tianjue and Duanmu Wen's gazes fell upon each other. They exchanged glances and realized that the other was a sage. They nodded politely and then passed each other.

"The city lord requests your presence!"

Duanmu breathed a sigh of relief; he had been worried that the other party would not accept guests.

He strode forward, following the maid.

On the other side, Zhao Tianjue led Zhao Muran away from the city lord's mansion.

Zhao Muran glanced back, his expression quite displeased: "This old man Qianye is too stingy; he won't even lend me a magic weapon."

Zhao Tianjue said calmly, "The item belongs to him. If he refuses to lend it, so be it. Let's go."

Zhao Muran asked, "If I didn't manage to borrow the magic weapon, can I still enter the Holy Domain?"

Zhao Tianjue laughed and said, "If one door closes, another opens. If he won't lend it to me, I'll find another way. Don't worry, I'll definitely get you in."

Zhao Muran breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Grandpa, I will do my best to explore the Holy Domain and obtain the inheritance inside!"

Zhao Tianjue nodded: "Alright, Grandpa will naturally believe you."

As the two were talking and walking down the street, Zhao Muran suddenly paused slightly, glanced to the side, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Isn't that Ning Hesheng and that annoying human slave?
