Chapter 2417: Chapter 2437: I’ll Keep an Eye on You!

"Senior, have you summoned me because there’s something you wish to instruct?"

Lin Chen didn’t want the other party to ask too much about his own affairs and took the initiative to change the subject.

The woman in red clothes chuckled softly, "No, just here to take a look."

Lin Chen fell silent for two seconds, "Shouldn’t you be very busy, Senior?"

The woman in red stretched out her arms and lazily stretched her body. With this simple action, the seductiveness, sexuality, and laziness of a woman miraculously fused together, creating an immense attraction.

Lin Chen’s gaze drifted unconsciously for a moment before he quickly regained control of his heart and mind, shifting his eyes away from the woman’s chest, lowering his gaze, and daring not to look again.

Beautiful!

Indeed very beautiful!

Lin Chen dared not look any further. Who knew if she would label him as a lecher and then slap him to death?

"Xi, the partner you chose is a lecher, he definitely harbors no good intentions towards you. To prevent you from being cheated, I’ve already slapped him to death for you."

Thinking of the possible scenarios, Lin Chen sighed inwardly.

Keeping company with an immortal is like accompanying a tiger—it must be this kind of mindset.

"I’ve given myself a day off."

The woman in red seemed unconcerned about the slight exposure of her bosom, looking at Lin Chen with a smile: "Since Xi has returned, some old matters are bound to be dug up again. This is a very interesting matter, I have to pay more attention to it... What’s the matter, don’t you dare to look at me?"

Lin Chen answered frankly, "Senior is both beautiful and charming. I’m afraid I can’t help but look too much and anger you. Wouldn’t that be bad luck for me?"

The woman in red chuckled, "Are you afraid I’ll kill you?"

Lin Chen nodded honestly, "Yes."

Who wants to die when living just fine?

The woman in red laughed and said, "Don’t worry, you are the person chosen by Xi, I definitely won’t kill you personally. I have to give Xi that much face, right? By the way, how did you evade those Fire Crocodiles?"

Lin Chen answered honestly, "Earth Escape. The perceptive abilities of Fire Crocodiles aren’t that strong. Once underground, it becomes very difficult for them to sense my location."

The woman in red murmured with a chuckle, "I see, while others may need to flip over each and every mountain peak and land to check, you only need to utilize Earth Escape to enter and whether there are Phoenix Fire Crystal Stones becomes clear at a glance. No wonder your efficiency is so high."

Lin Chen nodded, "There are quite a few people here; there must be many who understand Earth Escape, right?"

The woman in red answered indifferently, "What they do, do I need to concern myself with?"

Lin Chen suddenly understood. Of course, she cared about the results. How these people achieved it was not a detail she needed to worry about.

She asked him because he was the person chosen by Xi.

She wanted to find out if he was worthy of Xi’s trust, and that was all.

Lin Chen thought for a moment and then asked, "Are you and Xi Jie’s master old acquaintances, Senior?"

The woman in red fixed Lin Chen with a smile that was not quite a smile, "What, trying to probe information for Xi?"

Knowing he couldn’t deceive her, Lin Chen replied frankly, "We are all very curious about Senior’s identity. If Senior is willing to tell, we would be eternally grateful."

The woman in red laughed softly, "How about this, if you find the Phoenix Fire Spirit, I’ll let you all leave and tell you everything I know as your reward and recognition. However, if you don’t find the Phoenix Fire Spirit or if it’s obtained by someone else, then I’m sorry, I’m afraid you won’t be able to leave for the time being. You shouldn’t worry about anything else."

The matter had come full circle, but this time the woman in red gave a clear promise, adding to the previous basis the commitment to disclose all the information.

This was very important, more so than countless Phoenix Fire Crystals!

Lin Chen readily said, "It’s a deal."

The woman in red stood up, slowly turning around. With a single step, it was as though she had stepped into a pond, ripples disturbing the air, and then her figure rapidly vanished.

"Do a good job, I’ll be keeping an eye on you."

Lin Chen thought for a moment, stopped his cultivation, left the cave, and prepared to ask around for information on the Phoenix Fire Spirit.

These people had arrived much earlier than our group; surely someone had encountered it, right?

The valley was not quiet; on the contrary, it was pretty lively.

In the canyon, groups of people were gathered here and there: some drinking wine, some gambling, some chatting...

Lin Chen approached a stone table where a large group of men and women were gambling.

The gambling method was simple: roll the dice and guess the numbers.

The dice naturally had special Array Formations to prevent sensory perception and interference. On such a basis, even a Daluo Immortal standing by the gambling table would be no different from ordinary people. It all came down to a game of chance.

Wouldn’t an immortal who cheated in gambling be chased down until body and soul are wiped out?

The stakes varied, but they would all be converted into the currency of Phoenix Fire Crystals, which had already become the universally accepted currency for everyone here.

Someone recognized Lin Chen and called out, "Young brother, you’ve found six clusters of Phoenix Fire in such a short time; your luck is explosive. Why not play a few rounds and try your luck?"
