Chapter 1748: Chapter 1768: Discussing in Front of Me, Are You Planning to Silence Me?_1

Lin Chen still didn’t say a word and obediently followed her into the Cave Mansion.

Lin Chen did not reveal his true name, and had never met this Wanshe Mountain Master before. Even if the Four Seas Immortal Monarch had suspicions about him, if she really wanted to take action, why would she need to deceive him?

In the Cave Mansion, after the middle-aged man invited the two to take a seat, he smiled and observed Lin Chen: "You seem really young, friend. What do I call you?"

Lin Chen replied: "Cloud Sky Continent, Haotian Sect Gu Chu, pleased to meet you, Mountain Master."

Lin Chen had previously used the false name ’Chen Lin’ when he joined the Heavenly Dao Branch Alliance. He was not sure if the Four Seas Immortal Monarch had received the intelligence report and whether she had heard of this name, so he didn’t dare to use it again. In front of the Four Seas Immortal Monarch, he made up another name, combining the surnames of Chu Jiaxue and Gu Yuexi.

The middle-aged man’s eyes showed a hint of surprise: "From the Cloud Sky Continent? What brings you to the Heavenly Mystery Continent?"

Lin Chen recounted the reason he had previously given to the Four Seas Immortal Monarch. The middle-aged man’s gaze fell on the Four Seas Immortal Monarch and asked, "Even though whom you choose to owe a favor to is entirely up to you, I am curious, how did you, a respectable Immortal Monarch, end up owing him a favor?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen understood that he was under the suspicion.

The Four Seas Immortal Monarch, with her powerful strength, what couldn’t she take care of by herself that she ended up owing a favor to him, an Earth Immortal?

In response, the Four Seas Immortal Monarch calmly said, "I was previously surrounded and attacked, severely injured. I ran into him on the way and he sent me to the residence of Medical Immortal Chen Yunsheng. Later, he also found me the crucial Huo Ye Long Cao in the Bai Ye Mountain Range. Otherwise, treating my injury would have been a real trouble."

The middle-aged man asked in surprise, "Who dared to ambush you? Are they bored with life?"

The Four Seas Immortal Monarch answered, "The Immortal Palace. The team was led by the First Guardian Commander of the Immortal Palace, Cao Hechuan."

The middle-aged man frowned and said, "Has Cao Hechuan really returned to the Immortal Palace?"

The Four Seas Immortal Monarch calmly spoke, "Weijiao openly tried to kill Yao Xuanji. Considering that Yao Xuanji has taken over the Immortal Palace, how could she swallow this bitter pill?"

The middle-aged man asked doubtfully, "Even if Yao Xuanji took over the Immortal Palace, her strength is insignificant and her prestige is non-existent. Besides being the Domain Lord’s daughter, she isn’t anything more. How many are willing to listen to her? How were you and so many of your powerful heavenly immortals ambushed?"

The Four Seas Immortal Monarch shook her head, "I was besieged in my own Cave Mansion. According to Cao Hechuan, they have breached the Southern Branch Alliance and most of them are dead..."

The middle-aged man’s face changed abruptly, "Is the Immortal Palace really that aggressive?"

The Four Seas Immortal Monarch answered indifferently, "They just attacked by surprise. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have even been able to kill me, let alone that many heavenly immortals from the Branch Alliance."

The middle-aged man asked, "What do you plan to do?"

The Four Seas Immortal Monarch shook her head, "About Branch Alliance, although I’m nominally associated with it, Chen Xianqiao is the one who actually takes care of things. This is well-known to the Alliance Leader. If something happens, no one needs to take responsibility for me. If the Branch Alliance encounters any trouble, naturally, Chen Xianqiao is responsible. It doesn’t have much to do with me."

The middle-aged man let out a sigh of relief, "That’s good then. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain this."

The Four Seas Immortal Monarch casually spoke, "I didn’t want the position in the first place. They insisted on including my name, I have been fed up for a long time. This incident gives me a chance to let go completely."

The middle-aged man shook his head and chuckled bitterly, "Even if you want to completely stay out of this, it may not be that easy."

The Four Seas Immortal Monarch frowned, "Why?"

The middle-aged man sighed, "As for Branch Alliance, the Alliance Leader surely won’t blame you. You have already stated before that you are only nominally attached and are not responsible for specific affairs. However, the Alliance Leader... regards you highly. You must know this yourself, how could he agree to let you stay out of this, free and unfettered?"

The look in the middle-aged man’s eyes was very subtle and his gaze seemed to convey a "You know" expression, which made Lin Chen sitting on the sidelines rather uncomfortable.

You people are discussing the internal matters of the Immortal Palace and Heavenly Dao Alliance in front of me, an outsider. Is that really alright?

Letting me know so much about the inside story, are they really planning to shut me up?

Or is this a test for me?

Upon that thought, Lin Chen shuddered with fear.

Could it be that the Four Seas Immortal Monarch is testing me?

She has doubts about me, so she purposefully spoke about the insider news in front of me and the middle-aged man. If I behaved strangely and gave myself away as being from the Immortal Palace, she would easily obliterate me?

Even though the Four Seas Immortal Monarch is not looking at me, every move I make is obviously within her observation.

Lin Chen thought rapidly and soon made a decision.

Am I not here to deliver a message from the Cloud Sky Continent?

What Heavenly Dao Alliance?

I know nothing about it!

Immortal Palace?

Of course, I know the Immortal Palace, but as for the rest, I have no clue!

As long as I listen attentively, appearing bewildered and confused, my attitude should be just right!

After hearing what the middle-aged man had to say, the Four Seas Immortal Monarch frowned, as if she wanted to say something, but ultimately held it back.

"He is just stuffed and is looking for trouble!"

Lin Chen’s pupils suddenly contracted, was she talking about the Heavenly Dao Alliance Master?

It seemed like there was a story between the Four Seas Immortal Monarch and the Heavenly Dao Alliance master. Judging by the hesitated words of the middle-aged man, could it be that the Heavenly Dao Alliance Master was fond of the Four Seas Immortal Monarch?
