Chapter 2406: Chapter 2426: Heavenly Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Tower, it’s really you!

The woman’s laughter was light, crisp, and possessed a peculiar charm that made men’s hearts itch.

Upon closer attention, Lin Chen realized the sound was not coming through his ears but was echoing directly in his mind.

Lin Chen looked around; there were adventurers not far away, but they were all engrossed in low discussions about Li Qianxing ahead of them, seemingly oblivious to the laughter.

Could it be that only he had heard the laughter?

Chills ran down Lin Chen’s spine. In such a tense atmosphere where everyone was on edge, the fact that this woman could still laugh so lightheartedly and casually meant there was only one possibility.

This woman must be the master of the Roulette Secret Realm!

She was secretly watching everyone!

With that thought, Lin Chen’s mood instantly became extremely tense.

Among so many present, his alter ego’s strength wasn’t outstanding, you could say it wasn’t noticeable at all, so why would she focus on him?

Lin Chen’s mind raced, swiftly considering two possible reasons.

First, others were their true bodies, but he was an alter ego, exposed because the master of the Secret Realm was likely a Quasi-Saint.

Ordinary immortals couldn’t see through his alter ego, but for a Quasi-Saint to notice something off would be quite normal, wouldn’t it?

Second, Master Floating Cloud and Ghost True Man were battling so fiercely, almost breaking the world apart. With such a commotion, if the master of the Secret Realm sensed it, she would definitely focus on the crowd and naturally on him as well.

If it were the former possibility, then that would be fine, but if it were the latter, it would be somewhat terrifying.

If the master of the Secret Realm noticed him and the others right away, wouldn’t that mean she saw them being taken into the Linglong Tower?

Has she been keeping an eye on him all along?

Cold sweat dripped down Lin Chen’s back.

A mere laugh, but it was just too frightening.

After some thought, Lin Chen reckoned that if he had indeed been noticed, it might be better to be bold and speak directly to her, at least he would have a chance to negotiate.

If she had any plans and if they started, even someone like Li Qianxing wouldn’t be able to stop her, let alone him.

Lin Chen quietly retreated, slipping into the darkness behind him.

Although some noticed Lin Chen’s departure, no one cared, for who would bother about others when even one’s own life was beyond control?

Who didn’t have some ulterior motive?

There were benefits to sticking together, but there were also risks in doing so.

There were others besides Lin Chen who chose to hide alone; with a crowd, it’s too easy to become a target, whereas hiding by oneself might escape notice.

Hundreds of miles away from the group, Lin Chen stopped, looked around, and bowed with cupped hands, "Is the senior present the master of this Secret Realm? Please show yourself."

Lin Chen looked around, but there was no response.

Lin Chen frowned, raising his voice as he repeated himself.

A breeze suddenly picked up, carrying a faint fragrance that lingered tantalizingly, making one want to take in several more breaths.

Lin Chen turned around abruptly, only to see a slender figure standing before him, silent and ghostly as if from out of nowhere.

She had actually appeared!

Despite Lin Chen’s stout heart, he couldn’t help but shudder, genuinely startled.

With a casual gesture, Lin Chen conjured a fireball, illuminating the surroundings, as well as the slender woman in red.

The woman in red appeared quite young, around 26-27 years old, in the prime of her beauty and charm. She stood there quietly, watching Lin Chen without any intimidating aura, but Lin Chen still felt an immense pressure enveloping him.

Are top-tier powerhouses this approachable?

All it took was shouting a few times and she actually appeared?

Confused, Lin Chen dared not show it, instead, bowing respectfully, "Junior Lin Chen, I have seen the Senior!"

The woman in red surveyed Lin Chen for a moment, then laughed lightly, "An alter ego? Hehe, is your true body in the tower?"

Lin Chen’s heart skipped a beat, about to reply when the woman in red lifted her arm, pointing at him from afar.

Lin Chen’s body suddenly lost control, and the Linglong Tower, which had been resting quietly in his pocket, gently floated out.

Radiating golden light, the Linglong Tower struggled against the invisible force but slowly drifted in front of the woman in red.

Lin Chen’s mind was filled with fear, further convinced of the woman’s Quasi-Saint status.

The woman in red’s gaze fell upon the Linglong Tower, and her eyes eventually revealed a smile.

"Heavenly Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Tower, I really wasn’t mistaken, it is you!"

Lin Chen’s mind reeled in shock. He had only activated the Linglong Tower for a brief time, and aside from taking people in, it hadn’t shown any more of its wondrous capabilities, yet it had been recognized.

Lin Chen had used the Linglong Tower many times, but to this date, this woman in red was the first to recognize its origin and name it completely!

Quasi-Saint!

Xi Jie had mentioned that her master once battled a group of unparalleled powerhouses, and in the end, he sent her away, then disappeared without a trace.

This woman was a Quasi-Saint who identified the Linglong Tower at a glance, could she possibly be one of those who hunted and killed Xi Jie’s master?
