The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3624 Remnant Believers
Lin Chen nodded, agreeing with Huo Ling Shuang's explanation.

Races may differ, but the core survival modes of any world are roughly the same.

Under the basic principle of the survival of the fittest, where the strong are respected and the weak are preyed upon, it is normal for the strong to regard the weak as ants. However, this does not mean that all the strong are like this.

Beyond social norms, there is also human nature.

Tianhe Sect seems pretty good?

Perhaps I can stay in Tianhe Sect for the time being with peace of mind. With the cover of being a disciple of Tianhe Sect, it will be much easier for me to do many things.

If things fall apart later, I'll just run away.

As long as he conceals his Saint-level strength and as long as Huo Ling Shuang cooperates with him, he will be perfectly safe here at Tianhe Sect.

"You really want to keep me at Tianhe Sect, don't you?"

Having spent so much time with Lin Chen, Huo Ling Shuang naturally knew Lin Chen's current state of mind.

He was just using the Tianhe Sect to hide his identity and go into hiding.

If Tianhe Sect plots against him, he will betray Tianhe Sect in a heartbeat.

What daring things hasn't Lin Chen done? Wasn't the Qiyun Sect outmaneuvered by Lin Chen?
Even though he has now joined the Heavenly Crane Sect, it is only a temporary measure for him. He has never truly regarded himself as a disciple of the Heavenly Crane Sect.

Lin Chen's heart will never truly settle down until the sect leader tells him to remove the "fatal shackles" on him.

How can someone who holds your life in their hands talk about feelings with you?

Can you believe it?

If it's not based on one's own free choice, can it possibly be from the heart?
Huo Ling Shuang naturally hoped that Lin Chen could truly integrate into the Tianhe Sect and become a member of the sect, which would make her situation much easier.

However, she would never dare to mention controlling Lin Chen's life unless the sect leader personally gave the order.

If she leaks the information, Lin Chen will surely flee, and Huo Ling Shuang will surely die.

This is Lin Chen's biggest excuse for surviving in the Celestial Realm, and it cannot be exposed.

"Stay put until you find somewhere better, it can't hurt, right?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "No problem."

The cave dwelling allocated to Lin Chen was very spacious, considered one of the best among the cave dwellings available to inner disciples.

Huo Ling Shuang helped Lin Chen tidy up the cave dwelling, and it was ready for him to move in.

Huo Ling Shuang respectfully inquired, "Master, what are your plans next?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "I don't have any specific plans, but I do have two types of goals."

"First, the more spirits of the Great Dao, the better."

"Secondly, items that can enhance strength, such as the Crystal of the Great Dao and the Divine Dao Fruit."

"You can help me find out. If you have any relevant information, we can take action."

Huo Ling Shuang nodded: "Okay, I will try my best to find out."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "There's no rush. After all, none of these things are easy to obtain. Now that my family has come to the Celestial Realm, I don't need to worry about the safety of my many relatives and friends in the Immortal Realm. We can take it slow."

It wasn't that Lin Chen wasn't in a hurry, but this was something that couldn't be rushed.

If the Spirit of the Great Dao were so easy to obtain, Huo Ling Shuang wouldn't still be a Quasi-Saint. "Alright!"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Put out that I'm in seclusion for cultivation. If there's nothing else, I'll go home to be with my wife. If you need anything, contact me using the token."

"Yes!"

Accompanied by Huo Ling Shuang, Lin Chen went to the Hall of Merit of Tianhe Sect.

Lin Chen checked his merit points and then looked at the list of items that could be exchanged for merit points.

Although Tianhe Sect is not a top-tier holy land, it is still a Heavenly Sect with a profound foundation. Merit points can be exchanged for many items, including numerous high-level pills, magic weapons, cultivation techniques, and supernatural abilities—virtually everything imaginable.

Huo Ling Shuang won against the Cang Mang Sect in this battle, earning a considerable amount of merit points. However, she is still some distance away from obtaining the qualification of the Great Dao Spirit through the merit list.

After visiting the Hall of Merit, Lin Chen went to the Library every day and read books for half a month.

Inside Cave No. 49, the exquisite tower floats in mid-air.

Lin Chen was in the main hall, and opposite him floated fragments of the divine essence of the Creator God.

Nourished by the energy of numerous mineral veins, the once broken and dim fragments of the divine essence are no longer as dilapidated and weak as before. Not only has its aura become more powerful, but the fragments themselves seem to have grown a bit larger.

Qi suddenly sent a message to Lin Chen, saying that the God of Creation wanted to see Lin Chen.

"Senior, what brings you to see me?"

The Creator God replied, "You have been back in the Celestial Realm for many days. What have you been doing?"

Lin Chen replied, "Settle my family, join the new sect, read books, and rest."

The Creator God said with displeasure, "You've even joined a new sect. Do you think any sect in the Celestial Realm would want you?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "They may not lack a Quasi-Saint, or even a Saint, but they definitely lack the great supernatural power of Star Jump."

The Creator God scoffed, "Even if someone accepts you as a disciple, isn't it all for the sake of scheming against your Star Chart Spirit? They might just destroy you one day."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "You know how the alien races live in the Celestial God Realm. I have to ensure my own survival first before I can think about anything else. I'm not like you, with such great strength."

Lin Chen paused, then changed the subject: "Even you, senior, with your divine status, don't dare to show your face now. So, for a mere saint like me, it's perfectly reasonable to take things one step at a time and find a place to stay."

The God of Creation was speechless after Lin Chen retorted.

He is indeed awesome, but what good is his awesomeness?
As Lin Chen said, he didn't even dare to show his face, let alone say anything else.

"I want you to go to my former territory and help me find someone."

Lin Chen asked, "Who are you looking for?"

The creator god replied, “Modir, my chief guard.”

Lin Chen asked curiously, "Is he your staunch follower? With his identity, shouldn't he be someone the gods are strictly eliminating?"

The creator god replied, "When I was besieged by the gods, my temple was destroyed, and my followers suffered heavy casualties, most of whom were captured. However, Modir led a group of people to escape."

"The gods only dealt with me, destroying the temple. After that, the task of hunting down my followers fell to the Celestials. Although my followers were killed or captured one after another, as far as I know, Modir has been hiding all along and has not been captured. He has been hiding in the dark, guarding what I entrusted to him, waiting for my return."

"My current situation is not suitable for me to show myself. I need you to help me find Modir and retrieve what I left with him. In return, you will receive a great deal of reward..."

Lin Chen wasn't immediately swayed. Instead, he cautiously asked, "So much time has passed. Are you sure he's still around? Are you sure he's still your follower, still loyal to you? I don't want to go through all that trouble to find him, only to have him turn around and report me to the Heavenly Gods..."
