The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3576 You might as well just take it all!

Lin Chen gave a thumbs up: "Thank you for your thoughtfulness, senior."

Lin Chen had considered rescuing these captured quasi-saints from the immortal realm, but ultimately did not include it in his action plan.

Although Lin Chen was born in the Immortal Realm, he didn't have much of a relationship with these people.

When fighting against the Abyss Clan, Lin Chen also traveled alone and basically did not fight alongside many Quasi-Saints. Some Quasi-Saints with whom he had a good relationship either did not participate in the trial or, like Seven-Colored Immortal Lord and Zhuang Susu, had already returned safely.

Once you enter the trial grounds, you are all competitors, and you all put life and death aside. Now that something has happened, you can only say that you are responsible for your own fate.

Furthermore, every participant in the trial is backed by a sect. No matter how bad the sect is, it is at least a Xuanmen level, or even higher.

These celestial beings hold their lives in their hands. To save them, you either have to buy them at a high price or kill their current masters to free them. One or two might be manageable, but with so many, how many sects would you have to offend?
A little investigation by someone with a keen eye might lead to the conclusion that he will likely be wanted by the Celestials.

Bai Yuxingjun waved his hand, his tone somewhat wistful: "This matter is quite dangerous. I thought it over and over again before making this decision. I'll save as many as I can, just to put my mind at ease."

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that Bai Yuxingjun would risk his life to save people and end up sacrificing himself.

"Senior, if you encounter danger, contact me immediately using the beacon. I may not be able to handle the danger, but I can definitely get you out of there."

Bai Yuxingjun stared at Lin Chen: "Alright, thanks in advance!"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Senior, why are you being so polite with me? You helped me a lot back then and were kind to me. Now that we are both wandering in the Heavenly God Realm, we should naturally help each other."

Bai Yuxingjun laughed and said, "There is no order of precedence in learning, only the accomplished are first. Don't keep calling me senior. My surname is Bai and my given name is Liang. I am older than you, so just call me Lao Bai."

Lin Chen didn't hesitate and smiled, "Then I'll call you Brother Liang."

"also!"

After a brief exchange, the two parted ways, since there was still plenty of time before the League Conference, so there was no rush.

Lin Chen and Huo Ling Shuang reunited and left together.

"how?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "He has also attained sainthood."

Huo Ling Shuang suddenly turned her head, her eyes wide with shock.

Lin Chen nodded: "He obtained the Great Dao Spirit in the Star Sea Trial and has been in seclusion here ever since. He just came out of seclusion half a year ago."

Huo Ling Shuang's face was bitter.

The Celestial Race regards all alien cultivators as ants, but both Lin Chen and Bai Yu Xingjun have demonstrated formidable combat power, exceptional wisdom, and extraordinary courage.

Whether they are stronger than the top Celestial Clan prodigies is hard to say, but from what Huo Ling Shuang saw, they had already far surpassed most of the Celestial Clan's Quasi-Saints. Seeing Huo Ling Shuang's expression, Lin Chen laughed and said, "No need for that expression. Whether it's me or Bai Yu Xing Jun, in our place, in the entire Immortal Realm, we are top-tier prodigies. If we were placed in the same environment as you, you might not necessarily have the advantage."

Huo Ling Shuang thought about it and realized it made sense. Why did the Celestial God Clan look down on cultivators from other races?

The Celestial Race possesses astonishing talent and faces no bottlenecks. As long as they have sufficient cultivation resources, everyone can become a Quasi-Saint. In contrast, all cultivators from other races face immense dangers with each advancement in their cultivation level due to racial issues, and can be annihilated at the slightest carelessness.

The Celestial Race possesses extremely rich spiritual energy, providing an excellent environment for cultivation. Even the most ordinary Celestial Race members, without the means to purchase high-end cultivation resources, can achieve a high level of strength simply by absorbing spiritual energy.

The Celestial Race possesses supreme Celestial Gods, and because of this, they call themselves the rulers of the universe, regarding all other races as inferior races, worthy only to become their slaves, and as insignificant as ants.

Lin Chen and Bai Yuxingjun proved that even alien races can reach remarkable heights. They proved their excellence, even surpassing 99% of the Celestial Race.

The two returned to Tianhe Sect's residence, only to find a large number of people on the platform, with the two team leaders of Tianhe Sect standing opposite them.

The two sides seemed to be arguing loudly about something, and both Uncle Zhao and Uncle Zhang looked quite unpleasant.

Huo Ling Shuang and Lin Chen lagged behind, not daring to ask any questions, and simply listened quietly.

"Zhao Yilong, Zhang Chenghu, can you really represent the Tianhe Sect? Can you bear the consequences?"

Zhang Chenghu's expression was cold: "Your Cangmang Sect shouldn't go too far. Even though our Tianhe Sect is indeed not as strong as your Cangmang Sect, we are not someone you can bully at will."

There were about ten people standing opposite them, dressed in black robes with a giant python coiled around half of their bodies, looking lifelike, ferocious and terrifying.

The leader was a white-haired old man with a sinister face. He put his hands behind his back and said, "Indeed, if your Heavenly Crane Sect were any weaker, we wouldn't need to negotiate with you here at all. We would have just driven you away."

Even the usually mild-mannered Zhao Yilong spoke in a cold and stern tone: "The mining area in Lanzhou is hidden deep underground. It was discovered by our Tianhe Sect disciples. It's unclaimed land, so whoever discovers it naturally owns it. That's the rule!"

The white-haired old man laughed heartily: "Your Heavenly Crane Sect discovered it first, but we also discovered it, just a little slower. Since it's unclaimed land, why should it be claimed as your Heavenly Crane Sect's property, and why can't it belong to my Azure Python Sect?"

Zhao Yilong angrily retorted, "Nonsense! Are you planning to rob me by force?"

The white-haired old man smiled and said, "The unclaimed land in Guanglanzhou is located between our two sects. According to the rules of the Heavenly God Realm, unclaimed property belongs to whoever has the biggest fist. However, considering that you discovered it first, which is a merit, we proposed to mine it together and leave you 30% as compensation for your hard work in discovering the ore. We have already done more than enough, so please don't be ungrateful."

Zhang Chenghu sneered, "You're such a hypocrite as a robber, leaving us only 30%. You might as well just take it all."

The white-haired old man laughed heartily: "It's not impossible. Anyway, we're going to mine the mine. You either accept the cooperative mining agreement and take 30%, or you get out of here and get nothing. I advise you to think it over carefully..."

Zhang Chenghu interrupted the white-haired old man, angrily saying, "No need to think about it anymore, I don't agree to this. The mine belongs to our Tianhe Sect. Anyone who dares to try to take it is an enemy of the Tianhe Sect!"

The white-haired old man narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a dangerous look: "Then there's no room for negotiation. But if a fight really breaks out, can your eighteen saints of the Heavenly Crane Sect stop our Azure Python Sect?"
