Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 977: The Guardian calls

Views:

After leaving the Xuewa Hut, Chen Lin brought Zhou Shiwu to the management office.

It cost 10,000 points to use the positioning beads of Ruyi Island to add a location to Zhou Shiwu's identity token, and used some more points to add Wanxiang porridge to the menu of the food house.

After finishing the work, he planned to return to Ruyi Island.

I haven't been back for so many years and I don't know if anything has happened there, so before returning, Chen Lin summoned Xiaocao in.

"Owner!"

Xiaocao instantly appeared in front of Chen Lin, with a happy look on her little face, but she quickly returned to normal.

"How is it going? Is everything okay over at Ruyi Island?"

"Nothing happened. I encountered several attacks from void beasts, but I destroyed them all."

Xiaocao spoke coolly.

The other party said it casually, but Chen Lin could sense the danger.

Any strange beast that can roam in the void is not ordinary. Fortunately, the other party was left on the island. Otherwise, without him, no one could close the entrance to the divine snail shell, and the safety of the people on the island could not be guaranteed.

Even Ruyi Island could be destroyed.

In fact, he originally wanted to take the divine snail shell away, but considering Xiaocao's safety, he left it there. After all, even if it was not activated, the divine snail shell could resist the attacks of the condensed spirit treasures. As long as he guarded the entrance, there would be no problem.

Chen Lin looked Xiaocao up and down.

He discovered that the opponent's energy fluctuations had become stronger, which should be related to the Fearless Tea he left behind.

Fearless Tea is a must-have drink for cultivators who focus on their mind. No wonder it was rated three stars. So he has communicated with Zhao Lingyi, and every few years, the other party will leave a certain amount of tea for him.

The price was a VIP invitation to his shop and a few pots of spiritual wine.

This spiritual wine was first obtained by the Tofu Fairy, so he could not offer it as an offering, and he had no great use for it, so it was perfect for trading.

In the past, eating Xinling buns for free was also a way of doing business, but now the price of buns is too high. Even if customers eat them for free, they still have to hand over the profits to the management office, and the loss is more than just the cost of the materials.

This approach is no longer feasible. Even private transactions on the island are not allowed. Anyone who dares to do so will be punished.

He even doesn't know how to fulfill the promise he made to Lord Yin. Fortunately, the other party has not shown up, otherwise if he came to eat every day, his shop would have to close soon.

"Greetings, Master Xiaocao!"

After Chen Lin and Xiao Cao finished their conversation, Zhou Shiwu greeted Xiao Cao.

"Um."

Xiaocao knew Chen Lin, the disciple, so he responded.

Zhou Shiwu was flattered.

He knew Xiaocao's character well. It could be said that she ignored everyone except Chen Lin. Being able to give him a response was already a great recognition.

"This is for you."

Chen Lin took out a beautiful bracelet and presented it to Xiaocao.

Xiaocao's eyes lit up and she immediately took it, pointed it at her wrist, and then handed it to Chen Lin.

"Master, help me put it on."

Upon hearing this, Chen Lin took the bracelet in his hand and gently put it on the other person.

Xiaocao's face suddenly lit up, and she couldn't hide her joy at all.

She shook her wrist, and a bright white bead on the bracelet glowed, changing its fluorescence as it shook.

“It’s so beautiful!”

The more Xiaocao looked at it, the happier he became.

"There is a small space inside this bead that can be activated by sword energy. It is perfect for you to use it to store items."

Chen Lin explained.

This was purchased with his two-star treasure exchange authority. Otherwise, Xiaocao would have to use a puppet to transfer when using the storage magic tool, which was very inconvenient.

"Well, thank you, Master."

Xiaocao hummed, her eyes never leaving the bracelet, as if she had found a treasure.

However, what she liked was not the storage space, but the jewelry itself. This was the first piece of jewelry Chen Lin gave her and it was of great significance.

Seeing this, Chen Lin suddenly realized that he had overlooked a fact.

Women and men think about things differently. Men focus on practicality, while women pay attention to many things. He has not given his wife and daughter any gifts over the years, which is quite negligent.

But it’s too late to make up for it now. I don’t know when I can see my wife and daughter again.

"Let's go!"

Chen Lin greeted.

Since there is nothing unusual on Ruyi Island, he can leave directly. After returning, he will raise the floating island and then practice in seclusion.

A lot of resources have been accumulated in the past few years, which are enough to support him for a long retreat. After his cultivation is improved, he can try to complete the title mission. If he wants to make progress in the demon world, he must pass this level.

"Is that the four-star gourmet, Mr. Chen Lin, in front of me?"

As soon as Chen Lin took out his identity token, he saw a man in a tuxedo flying and landing on the square.

He was slightly stunned, and then said: "It is me, what can I do for you, sir?"

On this island, anyone wearing a standard tuxedo is a dedicated Guardian staff member, and he dare not neglect them.

"The Guardian invites you!"

Tuxedo's next words left Chen Lin confused.

The Guardian is such a powerful being, how could he possibly notice a small person like him

If it was because he made four-star food, it should have been displayed during the food festival, and he would not have been remembered only after so many years.

Although he was puzzled, he did not ask. Instead, he nodded and said, "Okay, please lead the way, sir."

As long as you are on this island, you cannot refuse the Guardian's call, and asking or not asking will not affect the result at all.

"Owner!"

Xiao Cao was not so calm, and immediately stood beside Chen Lin, looking like he was ready to take action at any time.

Chen Lin pulled the other person back and said, "It's okay, go back to the store first and don't wander around."

He gave a veiled warning and flew off following the man in the tuxedo.

I walked all the way to the building in the center of the island. Before I could check the surroundings, I felt my body lighten.

The next moment, he appeared in a magnificent hall.

The hall is large and spacious.

In the middle, there is an exaggerated golden long table, and at the end of the long table, there is a golden high chair.

The guardian of food was sitting upright on a chair, and on the table in front of him was a bowl of porridge.

"I know you, you're the one who makes the buns!"

Seeing Chen Lin, the guardian jumped up suddenly, and changed from sitting to standing, but he stood on a chair with his hands on his waist and a smug look on his face.

Chen Lin secretly complained in his heart, but his face was expressionless. He clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "Greetings, Lord Guardian!"

"Huh?"

The guardian suddenly exclaimed in surprise, jumped from the chair to the table, and trotted to Chen Lin.

Then he looked at Chen Lin steadily.

Chen Lin felt his hair stand on end when he was stared at.

But before he could figure out what the other party meant, the other party retreated again.

What made his mouth twitch was that the other party did not walk back or fly back, but did a backflip and landed directly on the high chair, sitting up upright.

This guardian is sick!

Chen Lin made a conclusion in his mind.

At the same time, he secretly decided that he would seldom come to this Gourmet Island unless it was necessary. No matter how many benefits this place had, it was not a good place with such a mentally ill ruler.

"How about it, are you familiar with this move?"

The guardian sat upright on a high chair and looked at Chen Lin with a smile.

Chen Lin's face was stunned for a moment.

The image of the long-nosed old monk whom I met in the Demon Temple in the Demon Realm emerged in my mind. That monk entered the inner courtyard by doing a backflip.

It's not just the monk, the rule there is that if you want to enter the inner courtyard, you must do a backflip.

Could it be that this food guardian is related to the Demon-Suppressing Temple

Chen Lin suddenly became nervous, and grabbed the shepherd's order with his hand. The shadow of green vines faintly appeared on his body.

Even if the other party is a guardian and really wants to attack him, he will fight!
