Chapter 2310: Chapter 2330: If You’re Going to Help, Help All the Way!_1

Mi Xiaowan looked at Lin Chen, her eyes revealing a complex expression as she felt his gaze upon her.

She pursed her lips and crouched down, "We’re almost through the Endless Sea, and the Northern Sea is not far now; I can go alone."

Fang Shan’an’s expression darkened, "Your strength is insufficient and you are so beautiful; walking outside by yourself is very unsafe..."

Fang Shan’an once again turned his eyes to Lin Chen, pleading, "Friend Lin..."

Lin Chen nodded calmly, "Fine, I promise you."

Fang Shan’an’s entire tense body suddenly relaxed, and the light in his eyes gradually began to fade.

Suddenly, he arched his back sharply, grabbed Lin Chen’s arm with one hand, and said in a tense, urgent voice, "Friend Lin, you must swear! You swear you’ll help take her to the Huan Yue Sect..."

Mi Xiaowan’s face immediately became immensely awkward; after all, it was a favor asked without offering any reward, and now he was excessively demanding a vow, wasn’t it a clear sign of distrust in others?

Was he afraid Lin Chen had designs on her, to guard her yet steal himself?

"Friend Lin, he..."

Before Mi Xiaowan could finish her explanation, Lin Chen raised his hand to stop her, his gaze fixed calmly on Fang Shan’an.

"I swear, I will do my utmost to escort Miss Mi safely and intact to the Huan Yue Sect. During this process, I will not harm Miss Mi."

Fang Shan’an, looking into Lin Chen’s steady gaze, relaxed his grip on Lin Chen’s arm, his sharp look melting into guilt.

"I’m sorry, Friend Lin, I am sorry, I..."

Lin Chen interrupted Fang Shan’an once more, "There’s no need, I understand. Take advantage of the remaining time to leave your final instructions with Miss Mi."

Lin Chen stood up, summoned the Linglong Tower, and smiled at Xuanhezi and the other two, "You guys should continue to hide and heal."

The Golden Light twinkled, and after taking Xuanhezi and the three people into the tower, Lin Chen walked to one side, not forgetting to thoughtfully cast a soundproofing spell for them, signifying that he wouldn’t eavesdrop on their conversation.

Grateful, Mi Xiaowan cast a glance at Lin Chen, then crouched beside Fang Shan’an, supporting him and listening to his final instructions.

After a while, Mi Xiaowan stood up, put Fang Shan’an’s body into the Spatial Ring, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and approached Lin Chen.

Lin Chen turned his head, "Did you finish giving instructions?"

Mi Xiaowan nodded and bowed to Lin Chen, "Friend Lin, I’m sorry, this matter originally had nothing to do with you, and we even refused your help before, leading to the current situation. Yet now, we are overturning that and asking for your help; this is truly going too far."

Lin Chen shook his head, refraining from commenting on the matter, simply saying, "Compose yourself and prepare to set off."

Whether it was Fang Shan’an or Mi Xiaowan, their stories were filled with a tragic hue, reminiscent of some dynasty where emperors and ministers would send princesses and beloved daughters to other countries to be humiliated by foreign dignitaries or soldiers, in exchange for temporary peace.

Did Fang Shan’an want to send Mi Xiaowan to the Huan Yue Sect?

He did not.

Did Mi Xiaowan want to go to the Huan Yue Sect?

Of course she wanted it even less!

But for the sake of the Fengxue Sect, Mi Xiaowan’s grandfather could only agree to the unreasonable demands of the Huan Yue Sect, sending his own granddaughter out to make amends. Mi Xiaowan, fully aware of the humiliation she would have to endure for the sake of her family and sect, could only grit her teeth and walk towards her own demise.

It was a helplessness, a bloody reality!

Thinking of that humiliating dynasty and looking at Mi Xiaowan before him, Lin Chen’s heart softened, and he crisply agreed to Fang Shan’an’s request, even not minding his rudeness and making a vow.

Lin Chen wasn’t indifferent to helping the Fengxue Sect, but he lacked the ability.

The greatest help now was to escort Mi Xiaowan to the Huan Yue Sect, considering it a closure for the previous incident where the Fengxue Sect killed a disciple of the Huan Yue Sect. As for whatever happened after that, it would no longer be related to the Fengxue Sect.

If he was going to help, then he must help thoroughly.

For now, just watch and see.

"Alright, I will take you into the tower; you’ll stay with those three, by the way, do you know who they are?"

Mi Xiaowan shook her head in confusion; she had constantly been trapped on the Sixth Floor, how would she have had the chance to meet people like Xuanhezi?

"The monk is the Buddhist Son, and the two Taoists, one is the Taoist Son, and the other represents the Dragon Mountain Sect. Although his status as the Saint Child of the sect is not confirmed, his standing within the Dragon Mountain Sect is almost equivalent to the other two."

After Lin Chen finished speaking, he didn’t care about Mi Xiaowan’s reaction. The Linglong Tower released a Golden Light and took Mi Xiaowan into the tower.

He didn’t place Mi Xiaowan next to Purple Cloud but instead made her appear in a specifically designed isolating abyss, next to the side of Xuanhezi and the three others.

Lin Chen didn’t plan to ask for any favors from these three for the time being, but if they voluntarily did something, that certainly wouldn’t be his problem.

After all, they were the children of the Three Sects; they should possess some compassion, right?

Give them some time to discover the truth for themselves.

Having pointed out the identities of those three, surely Mi Xiaowan would give it a try, right?

Who would want to fall into the abyss, never to transcend it?
