_1 “Grand Master Gao, please don’t be so quick to refuse.”
Lin Chen looked straight into Gao Chen’s eyes, smiling slightly, “Perhaps your sect also has problems that it cannot solve, isn’t it?
The Immortal Palace can help solve these.
Besides, learning the Divine Soul Separation Technique is only for alone.
I can swear that I will not divulge it to others and won’t cause your sect’s secret technique to be leaked.”
“Consider it from another angle.
Suppose you just accepted an additional disciple, but this disciple has a strong background and can help you solve so serious problems that even you cannot resolve.
This, for the Soul Separation Sect, isn’t it a good thing?”
Expressions of surprise crossed the faces of Gao Chen and the others.
Gao Chen asked, “Special Envoy Lin, I have already agreed to help, why are you still insisting on learning the Divine Soul Separation Technique?”
Lin Chen replied, “The Palace Lord once said, ‘for matters that one can control and resolve oneself, it’s best not to rely on others.’ This matter is very important to a certain person, so there cannot be the slightest mistake.”
Gao Chen frowned, “You an the Palace lord sent you here to learn the Divine Soul Separation Technique to ensure the separation will not have any accidents?”
Lin Chen nodded, “Yes, learning the Divine Soul Separation Technique, even if I can’t reach your level of mastery, I can still get a more accurate understanding of the state of the divine soul and make predictions.”
Prior to coming here, Lin Chen had been ticulously instructed by Yao Xuanji to represent the Immortal Palace in negotiations with others while traveling.
Yao Xuanji unconditionally supported any decision made by Lin Chen.
Although Lin Chen had no plans to fully rely on the Immortal Palace, it was very helpful to puff oneself up under the unfamiliar circumstance.
If it were not for his identity as an envoy of the Immortal Palace, he would not have been able to gain entry here at all.
After a brief silence, Gao Chen laughed lightly, “Although I am the Sect Master, I can’t make a decision on this matter concerning the interests of the sect alone.
Special Envoy Lin, why don’t you stay for now, while we discuss and give you a reply then?”
Lin Chen laughed, “Can Master Gao give a specific tiline?”
After a mont of thought, Gao Chen said, “An important senior mber of our sect has not yet returned and is expected to return in about ten days.
How about this, Special Envoy Lin stays here for half a month, regardless of the results, after half a month, I will definitely give Your Excellency a definite reply.”
“Good!”
After the formal discussion, Lin Chen was led out of the Main Hall.
The mont Lin Chen left, the smiles on the faces of the people in the Main Hall imdiately disappeared, becoming considerably serious.
Ouyang Ye activated the Array Formation in the Main Hall, isolating it from the outside, before asking, “What do you think about this?
Why did the Immortal Palace suddenly send a special envoy at this sensitive ti?”
Gao Chen frowned, “Helping soone separate their soul and yet wanting to learn the Divine Soul Separation Technique, which is our secret technique that is not passed on, I always feel that things are not that simple.”
The Deputy Sect Master, Chen He, muttered softly, “Could it be that the Immortal Palace heard so news and sent this Lin Qing over?
On the surface, they want to help soone with soul separation, but under the guise of learning the Divine Soul Separation Technique, they want to probe our attitude?”
Ouyang Ye exclaid in surprise, “You an they sensed that we are cooperating with the Heavenly Dao Alliance?”
Chen He replied, “Otherwise, it’s hard to explain.
It’s too coincidental!
For so many years, the Immortal Palace has never bothered us, but now that we have just connected with the Heavenly Dao Alliance and established a cooperative relationship, the special envoy of the Immortal Palace ca knocking at our door.
Isn’t this too much of a coincidence?”
Gao Chen asked, “What should we do now?”
Chen He replied, “In a few days, the day of our agreed transaction with the Heavenly Dao Alliance will arrive.
Perhaps we should negotiate with them again and then make the final conclusion?”
Gao Chen sighed, “We have already started cooperating with the Heavenly Dao Alliance, so there’s basically no way out.
Moreover, once the things we have done are exposed, we will imdiately be labeled as heretics by others.
I’m afraid the Immortal Palace might co to eliminate us directly.”
Ouyang Ye made a chopping motion with his hand, “This envoy seems to have co alone.
We might as well kill him directly just like he never ca in the first place.
Even if the Immortal Palace investigates afterwards, we can claim to be innocent.”
Chen He asked worriedly, “How did he find us here?”
Ouyang Ye thought for a while, “Although he tried to play dumb, I still think it has sothing to do with the disciple who was sent out to buy the Soul-hooking Five-flavor Grass.
That disciple just returned, and he ca right after…..”
“Summon that disciple and interrogate him.”
“Alright!”
Soon, the man in black that Lin Chen had previously tracked appeared in front of everyone, respectfully bowed.
“Were you followed today while you were picking up the goods?”
The man in black shook his head, “I was paying attention and there was nobody following .
However, after I picked up the goods and left the Pharmacy, soone tapped on the shoulder.
It was a stranger.
I turned around and he said he got the wrong person.”
Gao Chen’s eyes lit up, “Tell more about what happened.”
The man in black detailed the incident, and Gao Chen confidently replied, “You were targeted a long ti ago.
The person must have used a special thod to locate and track you during your contact with them.
Special Envoy Lin must have followed your tracks all the way here…”
