The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3642 Seven-Colored Lotus Dew
Wang Zheng looked at the glowing token before him with a puzzled expression.

"Is this enough?"

Zhao Cheng, who was partnered with Wang Zheng, replied uncertainly, "I think that's how it is. Isn't it just a matter of injecting spiritual power to activate the formation?"

Wang Zheng asked doubtfully, "I thought it would release light and form a teleportation portal. We've been traveling for so long, and we're already too far from the sect. Even if we activate the token, how will they get here?"

The two stood together, staring blankly at the glowing keepsake in their hands.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind them.

"Have you found out any information?"

Wang Zheng and Zhao Cheng were startled and turned around abruptly, only to see Lin Chen standing just two meters behind them.

The two stared wide-eyed at Lin Chen as if they had seen a ghost.

How did he get there?
They didn't even sense any spiritual energy fluctuations!
The distance between here and the Moon Reflection Mountains is unknown. I just activated the believer, and the other party came over silently?
That's terrifying strength!
"Elder Lin!"

The two quickly greeted each other, their eyes filled with awe.

At least Lin Chen's display of skill was something the previous sect leader, Lei Yu, would never have done!

No wonder Raimon-sama stepped down and made way for a more capable person!
Lin Chen asked, "What news?"

Wang Zheng replied respectfully, "We have learned about the Seven-Colored Lotus Dew."

Lin Chen was overjoyed: "Tell me in detail."

Wang Zheng began to recount: "As we traveled, we visited various pharmacies and associations in the major cities we passed through. A few days ago, when we arrived in Black Feather City, we continued to inquire everywhere. We heard that the Sword Soul Sect, the power to which Black Feather City belongs, had recently bid on a bottle of Seven-Colored Lotus Dew at an auction."

"We rushed to the auction site and confirmed the news. We also inquired about the bidder, who turned out to be Elder Chen Wuji of the Sword Soul Sect. After confirming this, we immediately sent a message."

"It's been half a month since the auction, and we're not sure if the Seven-Colored Lotus Dew has already been used..."

Lin Chen nodded and praised, "Very good. Regardless of whether the Seven-Colored Lotus Dew is still there or not, you deserve credit. There will be a reward after we finish dealing with it."

Wang Zheng and Zhao Cheng were overjoyed. They had just followed the caravan all the way, gathering information, and had actually made a contribution.
"Thank you, Elder Lin."

Lin Chen asked, "Where is the Sword Soul Sect? What is the sect's strength?"

Zhao Cheng answered without hesitation: "The Sword Soul Sect is located north of Black Feather City, about two days' journey away. The Sword Soul Sect has five Saints and is a powerful sect in the area."

Five saints?
Lin Chen felt a slight sense of relief: "Okay, you lead the way."

Led by Wang Zheng and Zhao Cheng, the three headed north and soon arrived at the Sword Soul Sect.

Lin Chen went to the Sword Soul Sect alone, intending to visit Chen Wuji first.

If the other party is willing to concede, Lin Chen doesn't mind paying a higher price so that Chen Wuji not only doesn't lose but also makes a profit. However, if the other party is unwilling to concede, then Lin Chen will have to resort to some means.

If this were in the Immortal Realm, Lin Chen might have some reservations, but in this chaotic and disorderly Sixth District, Lin Chen wouldn't hesitate to take action.

At the mountain gate, Lin Chen displayed his saintly aura and then smoothly entered the Sword Soul Sect, where he met Chen Wuji.

Chen Wuji was a serious-looking middle-aged man. He sized up Lin Chen, frowned, and his attitude was cold with a hint of arrogance.

"Who is your Excellency?"

Lin Chen replied, "Lin Chen, the Grand Elder of the Wolong Sect."

Chen Wuji thought for a moment: "Wolong Sect, never heard of it."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "We are a new force established through the merger of many powers, and we are located a bit far from here. It's normal that Fellow Daoist Chen hasn't heard of us." Chen Wuji asked, "What brings you here?"

Lin Chen asked, "I heard that you won a bottle of Seven-Colored Lotus Dew at an auction a few days ago?"

A wary look appeared in Chen Wuji's eyes: "Yes."

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief. The other party neither denied it nor said that it had been consumed, which meant that the Seven-Colored Lotus Dew was still in his hands.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, I won't beat around the bush. I need to refine a medicine that requires Seven-Colored Lotus Dew. I've sent people to search for it for many years, and only managed to find out that a bottle was auctioned off. Unfortunately, I got the news too late, and Fellow Daoist Chen has already won the bid for the Seven-Colored Lotus Dew."

"I hope Fellow Daoist Chen can reluctantly part with the Seven-Colored Lotus Dew. I am willing to pay double the price you originally bid."

Things that can be solved with divine crystals are not considered big problems.

Previously, Lin Chen had earned over 100 million divine crystals in Chen Zu's sacred domain, so he was quite wealthy and not short of money.

Perhaps because Lin Chen offered double the price, showing considerable sincerity, Chen Wuji didn't immediately turn against him.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, this Seven-Colored Lotus Dew is also very important to me. I intended to use it myself, so I'm sorry..."

"three times!"

Lin Chen raised the price again without hesitation: "Fellow Daoist Chen, please be lenient. This is about saving lives, and I don't have time to search slowly."

Chen Wuji shook his head decisively: "Fellow Daoist Lin, this item is of great use to me and has nothing to do with divine crystals. I can't help you. Please leave."

Lin Chen didn't move: "Or we can try another way, Fellow Daoist Chen. Aside from divine crystals, what other needs or conditions do you have? You can state them, and I'll see if I can meet them."

Chen Wuji looked at Lin Chen with a somewhat impatient expression: "The item is mine, I'm not selling it to you, please leave."

Lin Chen said in a deep voice, "Fellow Daoist Chen, can you tell me what you intend to use it for?"

Chen Wuji replied, "I am preparing to refine the White Essence Pill."

Lin Chen frowned and said, "The White Yuan Pill's effect is to stimulate potential in a short period of time, causing strength to increase by at least 100%. Are you planning to fight someone to the death?"

Chen Wuji replied, "The five sects in this area have agreed to a competition to determine the ownership of a territory. This is a matter of great importance to the sects, so we must prepare the White Yuan Pill. Otherwise, we have little chance of winning."

Lin Chen replied understandingly, "This sect's affairs are indeed of great importance, but they don't necessarily have to rely on the White Yuan Pill."

Chen Wuji stared at Lin Chen: "What do you mean?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "If I can help your sect seize this territory, then you won't need to refine the White Essence Pill anymore, will you?"

Chen Wuji frowned, his eyes full of suspicion: "You?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "If I'm not strong enough, there are other people in our Wolong Sect."

Chen Wuji asked, "How many sages does your Wolong Sect have?"

Lin Chen replied, "Thirteen."

Chen Wuji's eyes widened suddenly, and his gaze became intense.

"Can you make the decision?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Yes."

Chen Wuji gritted his teeth and said, "If you can really help us win this territory, then I will give you the Seven-Colored Lotus Dew!"
