The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3735 Zhao Tianjue must die!

"Buzz!"

The giant ship passed through the portal and appeared in Black Abyss City.

Lin Chen looked at the huge yellow flag hanging at the bow of the ship, with a large number on it.

eleven.

Next to this yellow flag, there is another flag with a familiar design.

The emblem design of Tianhemen.

The flag features a giant crane in flight, so lifelike that it seems about to fly down from beneath the flag.

Next to the flag are three elegant characters.

Tianhe Gate.

Lin Chen asked curiously, "What does the yellow flag mean?"

"That is the Heavenly God Flag."

Huo Ling Shuang explained, "Yellow represents the earth element, and eleven represents our eleventh district. These two flags are our identity symbols, representing that the giant ship belongs to the Tianhe Sect, a territory under the Earth God of the eleventh district."

“Under normal circumstances, the giant ship does not need to fly the Heavenly God Flag when traveling within the region, but when it goes to other regions, it will fly the Heavenly God Flag to identify itself and avoid misunderstandings.”

"Black Abyss City belongs to the Thirteenth District and is considered a border city of the Thirteenth District. Most of the people coming and going here are forces from other districts, so they will hang up two flags to indicate their identity."

Lin Chen asked curiously, "If a sect is strong, displaying its flag to identify itself will definitely have a deterrent effect. But if a sect is only of average strength, wouldn't displaying its identity make it easier for others to target it?"

Huo Ling Shuang explained, "If you hang yourself openly, others might not dare to attack you. Who knows who's on the boat? But if you don't hang yourself, wouldn't that suggest you have a guilty conscience or are plotting something? That would attract more attention."

“Normally, shipping routes between major cities are quite safe, since many merchant ships travel on these routes, making it difficult for thieves or other criminals to carry out attacks, and also making it difficult for them to escape.”

"If you go to remote and desolate places, you have to be careful if you're not strong enough. You might run into bandits. In the wilderness, robbery and murder are commonplace and nobody cares. It's hard to escape, and even if you do get away, you'll never get your things back."

"Although the Heavenly Sect cannot compare to the Holy Land, it is still a major power in the entire region. Normally, no one would have any designs on it."

Lin Chen silently marked a coordinate outside Black Abyss City.

Star Jump requires coordinates, which is a disadvantage if you want to go to places you haven't been before. But if you light up the star map in your mind, it's awesome. You can teleport across the entire map and get there in the blink of an eye.

Lin Chen casually asked, "Which faction is hosting this celebration?"

"The Azure Fire Sect, one of the five holy lands of the Thirteenth District."

Lin Chen, holding his teacup, chuckled, "The Five Holy Lands? That's one less than District 11."

Huo Ling Shuang replied, "There is one less, but the five holy lands are all very strong. For example, the Qinghuo Sect is said to have nearly 170 saints, and their strength is extremely powerful."

"The Azure Fire Sect is undoubtedly the strongest in the Thirteenth District, not only because they have a large number of Saints, but also because they have several top-level Saints who are very talented and can fight a group of people by themselves."

"The other four holy lands may be slightly weaker than the Azure Flame Sect, but they are in no way inferior to our six great holy lands. Among them, the Death Soul Sect and the Black Emperor Palace are even stronger than the other two holy lands..."

"Wait!" Lin Chen suddenly sat up straight, his eyes widening: "The Black Palace, the Black Palace where Zhao Muran is?"

Huo Ling Shuang nodded: "Yes, but now that you are an elder of the Heavenly Crane Sect with the strength of a Saint, you don't need to worry about Zhao Muran causing you trouble."

Am I worried that Zhao Muran will cause me trouble?
Zhao Muran is still hiding in the hidden space of the Holy Domain!
What I'm worried about is that old bastard Zhao Tianjue!
Zhao Tianjue witnessed the Holy Domain he entered. Based on what those who were released said, and the fact that some people's soul lamps had gone out, he could basically deduce the inheritor of the Holy Domain.

There were only six people who entered the Heavenly God Arena, and I was the sixth.

Including the three he killed, only three survived in the end.

Xi Dongcheng, Zhao Muran, and himself.

Xi Dongcheng went back to deceive Tianji Umbrella and fabricated a lie. After his betrayal, it is unknown whether the Black Palace heard about it.

Upon closer examination, whether Xi Dongcheng succeeds or not is not important; what is important is that Zhao Muran has not yet appeared.

Given Zhao Muran's hatred for him and her covetousness for his Star Chart Spirit, how could she possibly let him go if there was even the slightest chance?
Now that I've reappeared alive and kicking, doesn't that mean something's wrong with Zhao Muran?

While others might not know about Zhao Muran's concealment artifact, Zhao Tianjue certainly does.

If Zhao Muran hid in the space to escape danger, then the victor would either be me or Xi Dongcheng. Wouldn't the result be clear as soon as I inquired a little?
Things seem to be getting a little complicated.

If it were just the Black Palace, Lin Chen wouldn't be afraid. The Black Palace couldn't very well ambush and kill him in broad daylight, could they? He could just run away. But this is a celebration of the gods, and the gods will be attending!
Chenzu and Boqiu, the Earth God, were originally rivals. Boqiu used treacherous means to surround and kill Chenzu, which led to Chenzu's death, and Boqiu became the Earth God.

Although Boqiu is the victor and is now the high and mighty Earth God, he was the one who harmed Chenzu back then. Now that I have inherited Chenzu's legacy, how will Boqiu view me?
Although he had no grudge against him and he was destined not to cause any trouble, didn't looking at him remind him of Chen Zu?
They can just wipe them out without a second thought, and who would dare say anything?

Lin Chen originally wanted to get closer to the gods, but now that his information about the Holy Domain might be exposed, it would be very troublesome.

Lin Chen thought for a moment: "I'll find a mask later to cover my face."

Huo Ling Shuang asked in surprise, "Are you worried that the Black Palace will cause you trouble?"

Lin Chen frankly recounted Zhao Muran's story, which surprised Huo Ling Shuang.

Although she knew that Lin Chen had obtained the Holy Domain inheritance, she had no idea how he obtained it.

She never imagined that Zhao Muran from the Black Palace was involved, and because of Lin Chen, Zhao Muran is still hiding in the Holy Domain and dares not show himself.

Zhao Tian definitely cherishes Zhao Muran very much, and if he sees Lin Chen, he will definitely cause trouble for Lin Chen.

"Okay, I'll go prepare a mask for you right away."

After Huo Ling Shuang left, Lin Chen sat in a chair with his brows furrowed.

Zhao Tianjue's existence is a huge hidden danger to him. Others only know that he is a slave of a foreign race, but only Zhao Tianjue knows what he has done before, including tricking the Great Dao Spirit of Qianye Elder's son.

Lin Chen pondered for a moment, and then made a decision.

Zhao Tianjue must die!

As long as Zhao Tianjue is dead and he hasn't told anyone else about his situation, then he'll be completely safe.
