The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3588 They've even used the honey trap!
How can it be?

How could Lin Chen, a cultivator from another race, possess such a powerful magic weapon?
Even though we are both saints, we dare not say that the magical treasures we use are stronger than these two.

No, they are definitely not as good as them!
Putting aside everything else, neither of them possessed the sacred-grade fire unicorn spirit on the Sun and Moon Divine Dragon Lamp.

Huo Ling Shuang had already prepared her words: "This tower is a rare treasure in Lin Chen's immortal realm. It has extremely strong defensive capabilities. He has come this far thanks to this tower. As for the fire unicorn, he won it at an auction house for 40 million divine crystals when he was following Ning Hesheng."

"Lin Chen can possess treasures like the Star Chart Spirit, so it's normal for him to have two powerful magic weapons."

Zhao Yilong and Zhang Chenghu looked at each other in bewilderment.

Is it normal?
This is not normal at all!
Where did he get 40 million divine crystals?
Even if he, as a slave, obtained the spirit of the sacred-grade fire unicorn beast, wouldn't Ning Hesheng, as his master, be envious and leave it to Lin Chen?

The two were puzzled, but they didn't press the matter further, because the facts were already laid out before them, and there was no point in asking about things that were no longer relevant to them.

Zhang Chenghu asked suspiciously, "He lent you such a powerful magic weapon, isn't he afraid of not returning it?"

Before Huo Ling Shuang could answer, Zhao Yilong interjected, "If he really had that intention, then he could just turn ruthless and kill him. Wouldn't all his magical treasures, including the Star Chart Spirit, then belong to Huo Ling Shuang?"

Zhang Chenghu thought about it and realized that it made sense. Perhaps he wouldn't have been willing to lend Huo Ling Shuang her magic weapon, but he wouldn't have dared to refuse.

Zhao Yilong smiled and said to Huo Ling Shuang, "No matter what, he has made a great contribution this time. If it weren't for his two magic weapons, you probably wouldn't have been able to withstand Luo Mufeng's battle axe."

Zhang Chenghu nodded: "Luo Mufeng's overall strength is actually very strong, no less than Huo Ling Shuang's, and even stronger. You can tell by his defeat of Xue Gang in a head-on confrontation."

"That's why your anti-air magic ball restricts his spatial abilities. Otherwise, no matter how strong your attack is, he can instantly infiltrate into another dimension, and all your attacks will miss. He can then appear out of nowhere and attack you with his unparalleled strength."

Huo Ling Shuang nodded: "Yes, if I hadn't taken advantage of the magic weapon, I wouldn't have been able to beat him."

Although Huo Ling Shuang won, she was still very clear about the relative strengths of both sides.

Zhao Yilong laughed and said, "Alright, you've fought two matches in a row, you must be tired. Go back and rest, you don't need to worry about the rest."

"Yes!"

After Huo Ling Shuang left, Zhao Yilong and Zhang Chenghu exchanged a glance, their expressions somewhat subtle.

"I guessed many possibilities, but I never expected that this magic weapon would actually belong to Lin Chen..."

Zhang Chenghu said in a deep voice, "I have a strange feeling about Lin Chen. If his life weren't being controlled, he would probably be a remarkable guy."

Zhao Yilong laughed and said, "Is it because of his alien race identity? What, did you have something on your mind after seeing his two magical treasures today?"

Zhang Chenghu answered frankly, "I did overthink it, but in the end I gave up. It's just two magic weapons, it's not that big of a deal."

Zhao Yilong nodded and said, "Yes, there's no need. Since his life is in Huo Ling Shuang's hands, he's a member of our Tianhe Sect. So, wouldn't the Starry Sky Leap Divine Ability also belong to our sect?"

"Since he is so outstanding, when he makes more contributions in the future, let's think of a way to make him a saint as well. Wouldn't that also enhance the strength of our sect?"

Zhang Chenghu nodded: "Yes, that's what I think too. Since we're here, let's just stay put. There's no need for us to kill and steal the treasure. Besides, I heard that the Star Chart Spirit isn't something that anyone can subdue just by getting it. It depends on fate. What if we really fight and end up with it but can't use any of it? Wouldn't that be a loss?"

After a pause, Zhang Chenghu said in a deep voice, "What we need to resolve is the ownership of Lin Chen's other half. When Ning Hesheng comes out of seclusion and comes knocking, we need to find a way to make him hand over his half of the right to use it. Only in this way will Lin Chen completely belong to our Tianhe Sect."

Zhao Yilong agreed, "This is indeed a problem, and we must find a way to solve it. However, Ning Hesheng has already entered the Saint realm and is a traitor wanted by the Qiyun Sect. Once he shows up and we capture him, I think he will definitely be willing to release his control over Lin Chen for the sake of his own life." Zhang Chenghu nodded, "After returning to the sect, we must report this matter to the sect leader and come up with a plan as soon as possible."

"That is!"

……

"Did they ask you?"

Huo Ling Shuang nodded: "Yes, I answered as we agreed before."

Lin Chen asked, "Didn't they ask you to do anything?"

Huo Ling Shuang blinked: "You mean you want to persuade me to take your magic weapon?"

Lin Chen nodded.

He lent the magic weapon to Huo Ling Shuang, partly to help her, but also as a test of the Tianhe Sect.

If they are tempted by the treasure and order or instigate Huo Ling Shuang to take it, or even kill him to take everything, including the Star Chart Spirit, then Tianhe Sect is not worth staying at, and Lin Chen will take Huo Ling Shuang away without hesitation.

If you want to harm me, I'll abduct your sect's most promising talents!
Huo Ling Shuang answered straightforwardly, "They asked me if I was worried that I would not repay the loan, but they didn't say anything else. Oh, they said you did a great job this time."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "It seems the people from the Heavenly Crane Sect are quite good."

Hearing Lin Chen's praise, Huo Ling Shuang was quite happy, and even felt a little proud, as if her family had been recognized.

"As I said before, our Tianhe Sect is very united and follows the rules. We don't believe in bullying the weak or the idea that the strong are always right..."

Lin Chen nodded: "That's good. In that case, I won't try to abduct their prodigy."

Huo Ling Shuang was slightly taken aback, then realized that the prodigy Lin Chen was referring to was herself, and her mood became rather complicated.

Happy and relieved.

If anyone in my sect plots against Lin Chen's Star Chart Spirit, or if they covet Lin Chen's magical treasures, then my best outcome would probably be to wander the world with Lin Chen.

"Could you come with me later? I'm going to return the Divine Breaking Pill to Xi Yunlang and settle this favor as soon as possible."

Lin Chen laughed and asked, "Why did you bring me along?"

Huo Ling Shuang answered honestly, "I feel safer with you by my side. After all, he's a saint. If he goes crazy and does something to me, I might not be able to escape..."

After a pause, seeing that Lin Chen remained silent, Huo Ling Shuang pursed her lips and pleaded in a low voice, "Master, please, just come with me."

Huo Ling Shuang's voice was soft and gentle, as if she were being coquettish.

Lin Chen couldn't help but chuckle: "You've even resorted to using your beauty to your advantage, huh? Fine, since you've been so obedient, I'll go with you..."
