Chapter 2796: Chapter 2816: The opportunity is given to you, why aren’t you running?

In the pavilion, Lin Chen was not the least bit sleepy.

He lay there for a while, pondered over the upcoming events, and then took out the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup from his spatial ring.

Since obtaining the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup, Lin Chen had never taken it out, fearing some sort of accident might occur.

Now that he was already in Mount Taixu, even in the absence of True Person Tai Xu, with Senior Brother Wen Mengsheng present, Lin Chen did not worry about any unexpected circumstances arising.

During casual dinner conversation about realms, Lin Chen candidly admitted his strength in the Carp Dragon Realm, whereas his fifth Senior Sister and seventh Senior Brother were both Daluo Initial Immortals; his Junior Sister, though slightly less powerful, had also reached the Pinnacle Daluo Supreme Immortal level.

Senior Brother didn’t mention his own strength, but from the admiring words of Junior Sister Gong Jianying, Lin Chen surmised that Senior Brother Wen might have also entered the Quasi-Saint Realm, though his innate divine power was not spatial control.

Perhaps not equal to Master True Person Tai Xu, but Senior Brother was clearly in the realm of the "Fearless."

With him present, Lin Chen didn’t fear any mischief from Taoist Duan Tian.

No sooner had Lin Chen taken out the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup than Taoist Duan Tian’s voice swiftly rang out, "Young friend, aren’t you being a bit excessive? After all these years, you hadn’t even let me get some air. I almost suffocated to death..."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Previously in the Land of Chaotic Streams, you stayed for at least six thousand years, perhaps even tens of thousands. You got through such a long time; these mere twenty or thirty years are but the blink of an eye to you."

"Besides, I did it for your safety. If Saint of Thieves had discovered you, the consequences would be unspeakable."

Taoist Duan Tian offered no rebuttal to Lin Chen’s words, "What’s the situation now? Have we left that place?"

Lin Chen responded, "We are now in the Bitter Sea Immortal Domain."

"Bitter Sea Immortal Domain?"

Taoist Duan Tian’s voice suddenly raised an octave, with unrestrained joy, "Have we really arrived?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Yes, why would I lie to you? Since we have arrived, I wanted to ask you about this final wish you spoke of to see whether I have the capacity to help. If I don’t, then I’ll continue on my way, pretend this issue never existed, and you can continue sleeping in the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup, waiting for the next fated person..."

"Hey, don’t!"

Taoist Duan Tian interrupted Lin Chen, complaining, "Don’t be so resistant, it’s really not a difficult task. Don’t you want the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup anymore, and all of my other collections...?"

Lin Chen calmly smiled, "Though the Innate Spiritual Treasure is desirable, one must be alive to use it. I, a minor character, dare not dream too big. Besides, I do have some magical treasures, although they don’t compare to an Innate Spiritual Treasure, but they are still somewhat usable."

Taoist Duan Tian detected Lin Chen’s tone, which essentially meant make the task simple, or else, I won’t do it, and you can continue lying dormant in the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup.

"Ah, I just want you to help me find someone..."

Lin Chen asked, "Who?"

Taoist Duan Tian hesitated for a moment, "I’m telling you this, but you must not tell others."

Lin Chen raised an eyebrow, "I need to find someone, so naturally, I need to enlist help, and naturally I need to reveal some information. If you say nothing, you can’t expect me to find someone in this vast sea of people. If you insist on secrecy, then better not mention it at all. I won’t look for them and will head directly to the Crimson Immortal Domain instead, and later find another impressive fated person for you."

Taoist Duan Tian asked puzzlingly, "An impressive fated person?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Shepherd Heavenly Monarch or Jade Star Lord. They are impressive enough, aren’t they? You can entrust them with your issue, and if they agree to help, it would surely simplify matters."

Taoist Duan Tian with a tone of surprise, "You know Shepherd Heavenly Monarch and Jade Star Lord?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Yes, Shepherd Heavenly Monarch even taught me the Way of the Sword Talisman. In that sense, I could be considered one of his unrecorded disciples, don’t you think? As for Jade Star Lord, I acquired an opportunity that belonged to him and later passed it to my disciple; that counts as knowing him, right?"

"If not for knowing them, why would I eagerly go to the Crimson Immortal Domain if not to secure their support?"

Upon hearing this, Taoist Duan Tian suddenly became anxious, "Don’t hand me over to them. The Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup is an Innate Spiritual Treasure; if they become greedy, they could easily erase me. If I haven’t fulfilled my last wish, I would die without contentment."

Lin Chen shrugged nonchalantly, "Then just be clear about it. I’m not promising to keep it secret, after all, I have to consider my own safety too, right?"

Taoist Duan Tian fell silent, and the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup remained still, making no sound.

Lin Chen was not in a rush, but his mind speculated whether the other party might just take control of the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup and escape.

Even with a damaged primordial spirit, he was still a Quasi-Saint.

To take the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup and leave on his own, he could go anywhere he wished, and if tasks needed doing, couldn’t he find reliable people to handle them? It’s not like he had to do everything himself.

As a Quasi-Saint, surely he must have some reliable, powerful masters around him, right?

Would he run?
