That evening, the Supernatural Times published an exclusive interview with Lin Chen.

The entire supernatural community was stirred up; it turned out that the number one beauty of the supernatural world had already given her heart to someone.

What surprised everyone more was that the other person involved, Li Muqing, had not made any statement.

Not making a statement essentially meant acquiescence.

At that moment, those who had been secretly in love with Li Muqing were howling in despair. Their dream lover was already someone else's woman, which was a huge blow.

At this time, Li Muqing was immersed in a bathtub.

She never expected that her longstanding ailment would actually be cured by that bastard.

Just then, Li Muqing's phone rang; it was a call from her best friend.

"Muqing, did you see the news?" her best friend asked.

"News, what news?" She had been absorbed in the joy of her illness being cured.

An old traditional doctor had told her once that if it wasn't cured, it might even cause her entire chest to harden.

Upon hearing this news, Li Muqing almost broke down; imagine being called the number one beauty in the supernatural world, yet having a chest as hard as a rock—how could she face anyone?

This was also why she had been refusing any man; she didn't want her secret ailment to be known.

However, what Li Muqing hadn't expected was that a duel that should have been a matter of life and death had ended up curing her years-long ailment thanks to Lin Chen.

What embarrassed Li Muqing the most was that she had been trying to kill Lin Chen in the arena all along.

At this moment, her best friend said, "That bastard Lin Chen is actually claiming to be your boyfriend, this guy is simply shameless, you need to expose him quickly."

Upon hearing her best friend's words, Li Muqing suddenly laughed, "Expose him, why should I expose him?"

"What, Muqing, is what Lin Chen said true?" her best friend exclaimed.

Li Muqing smiled faintly, "True or false, it doesn't matter. Having him as a shield will keep many men from bothering me."

After hanging up with her best friend, Li Muqing stood in front of the window, muttering to herself, "Lin Chen, consider this a favor returned to you."

At this moment, Lin Chen was hurrying alone through the great hall of Kunlun.

He didn't know why, but there was always something in Kunlun that made his heart palpitate.

What puzzled him most was that he had been in Kunlun for several days and had yet to see Xiaowen.

Logically, Zhao Xiaowen should have been at the duel, even if just to cheer him on.

But Xiaowen had not appeared, which left only one reason—Zhao Xiaowen was either being held in soft confinement or had encountered some danger.

The residential area of Kunlun was vast; searching for Zhao Xiaowen throughout was simply too difficult.

Suddenly, Lin Chen remembered someone, Bing Ling.

"Yes, how could I have forgotten her? When Xiaowen was first abducted to Kunlun, it was she who helped me master fire properties and gave me plenty of guidance," Lin Chen slapped his forehead and laughed.

He quickly stopped a young Taoist and asked, "Excuse me, do you know where Sister Bing Ling is?"

"You're looking for Sister Bing Ling? She's in the back mountain," the young Taoist said, pointing to a towering mountain peak behind him.

"Thank you." Lin Chen sped towards the back mountain as directed by the young Taoist.

The two mountain peaks were not far apart. Lin Chen increased his speed to the utmost, so it wasn't long before he reached the back mountain.

The back mountain was mostly populated by women, and after asking a few more people, Lin Chen finally found Bing Ling.

"Sister Bing Ling, do you remember me?" Lin Chen said with a beaming smile upon seeing Bing Ling.

Bing Ling's expression changed slightly upon seeing Lin Chen, and she said coldly, "Who are you? I don't know you."

"What?" Lin Chen was momentarily stunned upon hearing Bing Ling's words.

However, Bing Ling blinked at him as if hinting at something.

Under everyone's gaze, Lin Chen gave an awkward smile, "You certainly don't recognize me, but I found a wallet. Could you check if it's yours?"

As he spoke, Lin Chen produced a leather wallet.

Bing Ling looked at the wallet in Lin Chen's hand and smiled, "Yes, thank you, it is mine."

As she spoke, Bing Ling walked over to take the wallet and whispered into Lin Chen's ear, "Meet me at the bamboo forest at the foot of the mountain."

Lin Chen handed the wallet to Bing Ling and then turned to head to the bamboo forest at the foot of the mountain.

After ten minutes, Bing Ling hurried in.

Seeing Bing Ling, Lin Chen quickly asked, "Sister Bing Ling, what happened to Xiaowen?"

Bing Ling looked around and said, "Three days ago, Xiaowen suddenly fainted, and the Sect Leader took her away."

"What?" Lin Chen was shocked upon hearing this.

"Taken away, where did they take her?" Lin Chen asked anxiously.

Bing Ling clenched her teeth and said, "I secretly followed them, they took Xiaowen to the Seal God Altar."

"What is the Seal God Altar?" Lin Chen felt a sense of foreboding.

Bing Ling's expression grew grim, "We have only heard of the Seal God Altar, but no one has ever entered. It's said that something ominous is sealed inside."

"Damn it!" Lin Chen's expression darkened upon hearing Bing Ling's words.

"Where is the Seal God Altar?" Lin Chen asked urgently.

Bing Ling said, "I'll take you there."

Lin Chen nodded, and the two of them rushed towards a secluded area behind the mountain.

Arriving at the pass, Bing Ling pointed at a stone gate not far away and said, "Lin Chen, that is the entrance to the Seal God Altar. However, we disciples are not allowed to enter without permission, so I cannot take you further."

Lin Chen nodded in gratitude, appreciating the risk Bing Ling had taken to bring him here.

"Thank you, Sister Bing Ling. You should go back; I will find a way in." Lin Chen said gravely.

"I'll wait here for you," Bing Ling shook her head.

Lin Chen replied with a smile, "Sister Bing Ling, if something happens, it's easier for me to escape alone. Your presence here might actually hinder me."

Bing Ling felt a moment of dejection, remembering how she used to outmatch Lin Chen in cultivation, yet now he was already at the True Yuan Realm while she remained in the Innate Realm. His talent was truly monstrous!

"Lin Chen, you must rescue Xiaowen, and I have a feeling that something is not quite right with Mount Kunlun lately. You must be careful," Bing Ling said solemnly.

"Got it!" Lin Chen gestured okay.

Bing Ling left the valley, and Lin Chen entered a state of invisibility, cautiously approaching the stone gate.

However, just as he reached the pass, he suddenly felt himself locked in by a powerful aura.

A figure abruptly appeared at the gate, "Lin Chen, come out. I have already sensed your presence."

It was the Taoist Void, of all people.

Lin Chen's heart tightened, knowing that even if he did not reveal himself, the other party already knew his location, so he had no choice but to deactivate his invisibility.

The Taoist Void squinted his eyes, looking at Lin Chen with a beaming smile, "I didn't expect you to possess such a unique ability. Lin Chen, you continue to surprise me more and more."

Lin Chen glared coldly at the Taoist Void, "Taoist, I want to know what you've done with Xiaowen!"
