Chapter 2621: Chapter 2641: I owe you my life, I’ll listen to you!

"Lin Chen, I’ll wait for you in the Crimson Immortal Domain, see you later!"

After the formalities were done, Jade Star Lord cut off the connection, and the people’s gazes converged on Lin Chen once again.

Lin Chen, of course, knew why everyone was looking at him. He spread his hands helplessly, "Although I know Shepherd Heavenly Monarch and he has taught me the Way of the Sword Talisman, this was just a casual act of kindness from a big shot. It doesn’t mean I can ask him to do anything for me. I can’t even contact him myself."

"Even if I told you these things, it wouldn’t be of much use, so naturally, I kept quiet. As for Jade Star Lord, it was Senior Sun who recognized him. I didn’t even know who he was before."

People thought about it and seemed to agree.

Sun Yixiao said with a laugh, "No one is accusing you of anything, kid. We’re just marveling at your good Immortal Fate. Your strength is still so weak, yet you’ve gotten to know several Quasi-Saints, all of whom are big shots, and have earned their recognition. This is much more impressive than ordinary Immortal Fate."

Lin Chen chuckled and replied flatteringly, "Knowing Brother Bai, and thereby getting to know you, Senior Sun, this is also part of my Immortal Fate."

Sun Yixiao twisted his mouth dismissively, "Jade Star Lord is powerful, said to be a disciple of an Immortal Emperor, while Shepherd Heavenly Monarch, as the War God Mansion’s master, oversees all wars with the Demon Race. He holds a high and weighty position. I’m just a thief, nowhere near their league!"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Everyone has their own specialty. In terms of strength, maybe they are a bit more formidable, but when it comes to Stealing Technique, they’re nowhere near your level. I’ve seen Jade Star Lord being very wary of you, afraid that you might steal something precious from him. In this respect, your reputation is no less than theirs."

Sun Yixiao, flattered by Lin Chen’s smooth talk, said with a smile, "You, kid, sure have a way with words."

Lin Chen wore a sincere expression, "I’m speaking the truth as it is, not just blindly flattering you, Senior."

Sun Yixiao pointed a finger at Lin Chen and said, "Given what you’ve said, I’ll cover for you from now on. But don’t expect me to back you up in a fight. I’m no match for Sidao Wang, and perhaps not even for Pang Yuanzhen. At best, I can help you make a getaway."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Thank you, Senior. But I am considered a dead person now, and just a minor character. Nobody will take notice of me."

Sun Yixiao stroked his chin, "That seems true. Ah, never mind them. I wander Jianghu with a thousand faces. Who would be able to find me?"

"Let’s get ready to head for the Land of Chaotic Streams. When we go back to the Crimson Immortal Domain, once we leave the Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain and Sidao Wang’s territory, his influence won’t mean much."

Lin Chen readily answered, "Alright!"

Lin Chen knelt down, looking earnestly at Zhen Liuxue, "Senior, you previously risked your life seeking revenge for your master. I deeply respect and admire that. But now, Senior, after having given it your all, even though it ended in failure, you’ve done your utmost and can hold your head high with no regrets."

"You’ve barely managed to cling to life. Senior, don’t despair just because you didn’t succeed in your revenge. The saying goes, ’As long as we’re alive, there’s always a chance.’ What you should be concerned about now is your health, how to survive, how to recover your strength, and even how to completely elevate your strength to that of a full-fledged Quasi-Saint."

"Should that day come, you will have the ability and opportunity to seek revenge against Sidao Wang again. But until then, please, Senior, temporarily set aside your vengeful thoughts and focus on living well for yourself. Can you do that?"

Zhen Liuxue exchanged glances with Lin Chen for a few moments before sighing, "Daoist Brother Sun said he saved me because he was giving you face, which means my life was saved by you. So, this life is yours; I’ll listen to you."

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Zhen Liuxue was gravely injured and would need a long period of treatment, complete with her full cooperation. Lin Chen was worried that after her failed revenge and near-death condition, she might fall into despair.

As for Lin Chen, he didn’t really consider Zhen Liuxue’s life to be his own. He simply admired her for seeking revenge for her master, and so he had saved her when he could, thinking that as long as she was alive, that was all that mattered.

"You said it yourself, Senior. A promise is worth a thousand chariots, and you may not regret it later, right?"

Zhen Liuxue nodded, "My word is my bond. Unless I’ve repaid this life’s debt to you, unless I have become a true Quasi-Saint, I won’t trouble myself with Sidao Wang. Before then, I will live for myself."

Lin Chen let out a long sigh of relief. That settled it.

Zhen Liuxue not only accepted his suggestion but also took the initiative to state that she owed him her life and would repay the favor in the future.

Heh, how the tables had turned?

Before, Zhen Liuxue had forcibly taken him and made him serve as her subordinate, but now she was saying she would listen to him?

A Quasi-Saint, listening to him?

Filled with joy, Lin Chen also pondered how he could help Zhen Liuxue with her healing.

Her very essence was damaged, not just slightly, but severely. Even the Ling Buddha Pill was merely keeping her alive, preventing the injuries from getting worse.

Since they were going to the Crimson Immortal Domain, he could perhaps seek advice from Jade Star Lord or Shepherd Heavenly Monarch. They were so powerful; they should have some solutions, right?
