The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3604 Why did you take me along?

The peaceful days passed quickly, and half a year had passed in the blink of an eye since Lin Chen returned.

For the past six months, the Abyss Demon race has been frantically "producing troops" in preparation for the final invasion.

Lin Chen quietly returned to the military camp twice, spending the rest of his time in Immortal Valley.

Besides spending time with his family, Lin Chen also took the time to see some old friends.

For example, Zhen Liuxue and Duan Tian.

For example, the Seven-Colored Immortal Lord.

For example, the True Man of Taixu.

His main reason for returning this time was naturally his family, and secondly, he wanted to catch up with his old friends and say a proper goodbye.

Once this matter is settled, barring any unforeseen circumstances, he will take his wives to the Celestial Realm, and they may not return for a very long time.

Zhen Liuxue and Duan Tianjin were both in the Quasi-Saint Camp. They did not go into seclusion with Chu Jiaxue and the others, but continued to fight on the front line.

Zhen Liuxue was overjoyed to see Lin Chen again, while Duan Tian had a complicated look in his eyes.

His life is still in Lin Chen's hands.

Lin Chen had nothing to say to Duan Tian. After all, Duan Tian had initially plotted against him, only to be outmaneuvered in the end. Considering how many times Duan Tian had risked his life for him and how he was now fighting for the survival of the Immortal Realm, Lin Chen released Duan Tian from his control and gave him his freedom.

Duan Tian left with mixed feelings of joy and confusion. Before leaving, he bowed deeply to Lin Chen.

He originally thought he would be enslaved by Lin Chen until he died, but he didn't expect that Lin Chen would set him free in such a short time.

After Duan Tian left, Zhen Liuxue asked, "Are you still going to the Celestial Realm? Aren't you planning to come back?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Even if they come back, it will probably be a long time from now. My wives are all coming with me, and I'll have to turn them all into saints, which will definitely take a lot of time."

Lin Chen was telling the truth. Even if they couldn't become gods, they had to find a way to elevate them all to sainthood. Just getting the spirit of the Great Dao would take an unknown amount of time, and then they would need to go into seclusion to break through their cultivation levels.

Breaking through a cultivation realm can take decades for some and centuries for others, so by all accounts, it's impossible to know when Lin Chen will return to the Immortal Realm.

Zhen Liuxue replied, "It's good that you're together, no matter what. You're loyal and affectionate, and you don't forget your husband even after you ascend to immortality. That's especially admirable."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Senior, would you like to go to the Celestial God Realm? If you would, you can come with us. I can't say for sure that you can reach a higher realm, but you'll definitely be able to reach the Saint Realm."

Zhen Liuxue asked in surprise, "Are you that confident? Aren't you the one being controlled by others?"

Lin Chen chuckled: "That was a lie to them. Actually, I control the lives of the Celestial Race and use them as shields for me. I went to the Celestial Realm on my own initiative, and I'm doing very well there."

Zhen Liuxue's eyes widened in surprise: "Really? That's great! I was so worried about you before. You're really capable, you can do well anywhere."

Lin Chen said smugly, "Senior, actually I have another secret that no one knows except my wives..."

Zhen Liuxue stared at Lin Chen curiously: "What secret?"

From their first encounter, when she held Lin Chen hostage to work for her, to Lin Chen saving her life, helping her recover from her injuries and greatly improving her strength, and then to her protecting Lin Chen as he grew up, they had long since become like family.

Lin Chen could hide the truth from even the Great Wilderness Saints, but he wouldn't hide it from Zhen Liuxue. Lin Chen blinked: "I am actually already a Saint."

Zhen Liuxue's eyes widened suddenly, filled with disbelief.

Lin Chen actually became a saint!
He's only been gone for about a decade or so.

This is too exaggerated!

Zhen Liuxue was speechless for a moment before finally smiling and saying, "Your journey has been truly astonishing."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "So, senior, how about going to the Celestial Realm?"

Zhen Liuxue stared into Lin Chen's eyes: "Why did you take me along? It can't be because I look good now, right?"

Lin Chen's smile froze instantly, and he quickly waved his hand: "Senior, please don't misunderstand. We've been through thick and thin together. You've protected me for so long. Without your protection, how could I have had such a smooth journey?"

"You're like family to me. Now that there's something good to be had, of course I'll think of you..."

Zhen Liuxue chuckled and said, "Alright, just kidding. I'm really glad you told me this, but you know, there's still something I haven't taken care of..."

"To avenge your master?"

Lin Chen answered without hesitation, "I can help you. With my current strength, dealing with Si Dao Wang is a very simple matter. I can make him disappear from the world easily and then bring him to you."

Zhen Liuxue slowly shook her head: "Recently, I've been fighting against the Abyss Demons in the Quasi-Saint Camp. Si Dao Wang has also been there. I've been interacting with him more often, and he told me some things about him and my master..."

Lin Chen raised an eyebrow: "What, has the situation taken a turn?"

Zhen Liuxue was silent for a few seconds, and finally said with a helpless expression: "Yes and no. It is true that he killed my master, but there are other reasons as well. Therefore, my master never hated her."

Lin Chen stared at Zhen Liuxue's face: "So what are you going to do? Do you still want revenge? If you do, I'll help you."

Zhen Liuxue shook her head: "I don't need your help. I've already made an agreement with him. Once the matter of the Abyss Demon Clan is resolved, I will fight him. I will take responsibility for my own life and death. After the battle, our grudges will be settled."

Before Lin Chen could speak, Zhen Liuxue stared at him and said, "You don't need to get involved in this matter, and you shouldn't do anything in secret. I know you have the ability now, but I want to resolve this matter personally; otherwise, it's meaningless."

Lin Chen was silent for a few seconds, then nodded: "I can refrain from helping, but I must be present when you duel."

Facing Zhen Liuxue's gaze, Lin Chen said frankly, "I consider you family. If you insist on your revenge, I will support you. If you lose, that's fine too. Win or lose, as long as you can let it go in your heart. I will be there to ensure your safety."

"It would be good if you won, but if you lose, I still have to save your life."

Emotion welled up in Zhen Liuxue's eyes, and she nodded, saying, "Alright, I'll let you know when the time comes. After this battle, regardless of victory or defeat, I will have no more obsessions. I'll go to the Heavenly God Realm with you."

Lin Chen's eyes lit up: "Great! Then we can fight side by side again from now on."

Zhen Liuxue smiled bitterly and said, "My strength is no longer on the same level as yours, so I can't help you."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "You are a time-manipulator. If you become a saint and have powerful abilities, you will definitely be a formidable fighter. Don't underestimate yourself. I'm still waiting for you to help me in the future!"
