Chapter 2791: Chapter 2811: Focus on Safety First!

"Are you about to leave? Why not spend more time with your family?"

In the lakeside small house of the Linglong Tower, Ning Xiayi brewed tea for Lin Chen, curiosity flickering in her eyes.

Seated on the chair next to her was Zhen Liuxue, watching Lin Chen with a smile, waiting for her response.

Over the years, although Zhen Liuxue’s wounds were still serious, consuming many precious medicines had some effect, allowing her to lead a normal life like ordinary people instead of lying in bed all day.

The arrival of Ning Xiayi had brought fresh vitality to the quiet cottage. As the leading Flower Maiden, she was excellent in serving others. Knowing that Zhen Liuxue was an expert senior, she humbly assumed a junior’s role, attending to Zhen Liuxue’s daily needs and cheerfully indulging her.

Zhen Liuxue lived inside the tower and could only occasionally talk with the Tower Spirit Qi. However, Qi had a cold personality and was not very enthusiastic, resulting in limited interaction between them.

Ning Xiayi and Qi were different; she inherently felt lonely and lacked a sense of security. Now residing here, although she couldn’t go out, her spirit was very fulfilled and happy.

She and Zhen Liuxue, one older, one younger, like grandmother and granddaughter, got along extremely well, their hearts filled with peace without feeling restricted by staying inside the tower.

From Zhen Liuxue’s stories, she learned about Lin Chen and Shang Wenyin’s tale and Lin Chen’s true identity, along with many of Lin Chen’s exciting stories, which deepened Ning Xiayi’s admiration for Lin Chen.

Who would have thought that Lin Chen was accompanied by a Quasi-Saint?

Even in almost a disabled state, that was still a Quasi-Saint!

Whenever Lin Chen had free time, he would enter the tower, drink tea with the two or dine together, casually chatting.

Over such a long time, Lin Chen and Ning Xiayi had become very familiar with each other and were quite at ease.

Facing Ning Xiayi’s question, Lin Chen said with a laugh, "I’ve stayed here for quite a long time. The longing has resolved; I’ve started to miss home."

Ning Xiayi pursed her lips in a smile, "Are you missing Fairy Shang?"

"Uh..."

Lin Chen touched his nose, "If I say that Shang Wenyin and I are actually purely platonic now, would you believe me?"

Ning Xiayi looked surprised, then pursed her lips in a smile, "If you say so, I’ll believe you."

After a pause, Ning Xiayi asked curiously, "The senior told me some stories about you and Fairy Shang, but I don’t know the details. Can you tell me about them?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "There’s not much to tell. Previously on someone’s request to save people, she, like you, was not in her true form, just a cold, ghostly expression. Hey, do you all like playing this sort of act? Lan Qiangwei doesn’t hide or cover up anything..."

Ning Xiayi laughed lightly, "How can I compare to Fairy Lan? She is the Saintess of Li Hai Sect, one of the Twelve Immortal Gates of the Myriad Immortal Palace, with immense power. Her identity allows her to assert herself across the entire Ten Thousand Immortals Realm. Coming to places like Gathering Immortal Island, she naturally doesn’t need to conceal her true self."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "It’s the same with Shang Wenyin and you, both giving me quite a shock. The Gui Xu Sect has always been searching for her, and probably Gathering Immortal Island will search for you too. The Myriad Immortal Hall and the Southern Barbarian Palace are after me; I dare not venture into the Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain anymore. Otherwise, if recognized, I’d hardly escape with my life."

Zhen Liuxue said with a laugh, "I’ve seen many who love to stir trouble, but you are the first to repeatedly make waves in the Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain, offending everyone possible, and still manage to escape unscathed."

Lin Chen praised, "It’s all thanks to Xi Jie. She has helped me avoid countless dangers. Without her protection, I would have died many times over."

Zhen Liuxue leaned back comfortably in her chair, holding her tea, smiling, "From the way you are speaking, you’re not planning to stay, are you?"

Lin Chen nodded, "The reunion has happened, the longing has resolved; it’s time to continue on my own path."

Zhen Liuxue asked, "You mentioned earlier that you were going to visit the Bitter Sea Immortal Domain first, what for?"

Lin Chen recounted his exploration of the Chaotic Flow Space with the Saint of Thieves, and how he eventually discovered Taoist Duan Tian and obtained the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup.

Ning Xiayi’s eyes widened in surprise, "So, you mean to say, you also have the primordial spirit of a fallen Quasi-Saint with you?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Yes, if he hadn’t taken a major oath, I really wouldn’t have trusted him, much less carried him with me. After all, one can never know what’s inside another’s heart; who knows if he would turn against me after leaving the Land of Chaotic Streams."

Ning Xiayi looked at him admiringly; Lin Chen was truly impressive.

Not only did he have a starry sky giant beast, but also a wounded Quasi-Saint and the primordial spirit of a fallen Quasi-Saint. Although their combat power might not be much, they were still Quasi-Saints.

"What do you plan to do?"

Lin Chen stated matter-of-factly, "This opportunity came to me by chance, an unexpected gain, so I plan to seek guidance directly from True Person Tai Xu, prioritizing safety first..."
