The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1107 Name? Your Hands Told Me.
"relief?"

The Emperor's Seal hovered in mid-air, and no further attack was launched.

This person is doomed.

That last blow had completely shattered his primordial spirit; this was merely a final burst of energy before his death.

Lin Chen asked in a deep voice, "Was it an immortal who killed everyone and destroyed the White Stone Mountain Cave Heaven?"

The middle-aged man replied, "I am Duan Yan, the master of Baishi Mountain Grotto. That immortal suddenly descended upon the grotto and asked us to suppress something for him. He promised to give us benefits in return."

“We are naturally willing to help the immortals. Who doesn’t want to ascend to immortality? I agreed and built the altar formation as she instructed. Then she came.”

"She wiped out everyone in White Stone Mountain, severed the White Stone Mountain Cave Heaven with a single sword strike, causing the Cave Heaven to fall from the Wilderness Realm to the Human Realm. She also turned our primordial spirits into this inhuman, ghostly form, with only the instinct for killing guarding this place."

"From then on, we will be trapped in suffering every day, unable to escape. No matter how time changes, as long as this place exists, our souls will never be free..."

Duan Yan looked at Lin Chen expectantly: "We've been suppressed here all this time. Can you tell me what's going on now?"

Lin Chen replied, "The immortal who killed you is now in the Immortal Realm. I was once hunted down by her primordial spirit. As for other things, perhaps it's not much different from what happened to you back then..."

Duan Yan smiled bitterly: "Yes, the world is the same no matter who is missing. It's just a mere Baishishan Cave Heaven. If it's gone, it's gone. Who would care?"

Duan Yan reached out, and a void ring flew toward Lin Chen: "Your Majesty, thank you for helping us escape this endless purgatory. Inside is the Xuanwu Pendant, the treasure of my White Stone Mountain, which was transformed from a Xuanwu. When released, it remains as immovable as a mountain. I present it to you as a token of my gratitude."

Lin Chen was overjoyed: "Thank you, Cave Master!"

Duan Yan's body was now mostly shattered. He smiled slightly, a smile filled with endless vicissitudes and sighs: "The immortal path is ruthless, and humans are like ants. This immortal path... heh heh!"

Two impulses suddenly surged in Lin Chen's heart. He cupped his hands and said in a deep voice, "May Cave Master Duan have a safe journey. If I have the ability in the future, I will definitely kill that immortal and avenge the entire White Stone Mountain Cave Heaven!"

A relieved smile appeared on Duan Yan's face as he bowed respectfully to Lin Chen: "Then thank you!"

As Duan Yan bowed deeply, his primordial spirit shattered completely, turning into a speck of light that slowly dissipated into the air.

Lin Chen felt a pang of melancholy. A dignified grotto-heaven, with so many people, had all been slaughtered by that immortal, who had also imprisoned the primordial spirits of the grotto-master and others, leaving them neither human nor ghost, suffering endless torment...

Indeed, the path of immortals is ruthless!
As Lin Chen relaxed, his legs suddenly gave way, and he collapsed to the ground, his head spinning, feeling utterly drained. The side effects of the Berserk Technique had kicked in!
Lin Chen braced himself against the ground, trying his best to steady himself. He retrieved the Human Emperor Seal and the Water-Fire Mirror, and also collected all the magical treasures and spatial rings used by the primordial spirits.

These are all top experts from Baishishan Grotto-heaven, and the magical treasures they use are naturally extraordinary. How could Lin Chen let go of such a chance to make a fortune?
Lin Chen took a couple of breaths, swallowed a few pills to calm himself down, and then remembered the altar barrier behind him. He turned around and his expression changed drastically.

The altar's protective barrier had shattered at some point, leaving the altar completely empty.

The head is gone!

Ran?

Lin Chen tentatively called out, "Fairy? Fairy Xuanji?"

A cold voice suddenly rang out in the empty hall: "How do you know my name?"

Lin Chen looked around but couldn't see anyone. He thought about the invisibility technique that Xuan Ji had used, which even made her master invisible when he was right next to her. If the other party didn't want him to see her, then naturally he couldn't see her.

Lin Chen relaxed and lay on the ground, panting, "Your hand told me she's with me now."

"my hand?"

The usually cold voice suddenly gained a hint of emotion: "Where did you find her?"

Lin Chen replied, "Death Valley, one of the six forbidden lands of the Wilderness Realm, was guarded by four immortal slaves and many undead. Many sects of the Wilderness Realm attacked Death Valley together and finally broke into the mountain. There was an altar there that looked exactly like this one."

"Everyone tried everything but couldn't break the barrier. The cave was filled with blood mist, and anyone who touched it would die. I used the Water and Fire Mirror to collect the blood mist and then released it onto the barrier, which corroded it, just like today. Then she stayed by my side and even saved my life."

A cool, clear voice asked, "Where is this?"

Lin Chen replied, "In the mortal realm, the immortal who killed you sealed your body in various places and hid your head here. He also killed everyone to silence them, causing the grotto to fall to the mortal realm, all to prevent you from being resurrected. I originally came back to visit my relatives, but I didn't expect to encounter this unexpectedly."

Lin Chen pointed to the central altar and said weakly, "Fairy, can you take action and completely destroy this altar? Otherwise, your whereabouts will be exposed. I don't think you want anyone to know that you escaped, do you?"
