The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1187 You're clearly here but you say you're not? That's not fair!

Qi Hengchuan didn't ask for any compensation; he only wanted revenge, and Lin Chen had already done that for him.

The other party clearly didn't really want to compensate him; they were only doing this out of respect for Emperor Lin Chen.

Lin Chen and Qi Hengchuan were politely seen off from the sect by Ge Haishan.

For Ge Haishan, although it was somewhat embarrassing, the emperor was after all. What was wrong with being polite? Who would dare to say they were wrong?

"Dongshan City, lead the way."

Qi Hengchuan respectfully gave directions, already deeply grateful to Lin Chen.

Compared to Qin Hao, the robber, he hated Dong Wu, who betrayed them, even more.

With his strength and the strength of his sect, he wouldn't dare to cause trouble for the Moonbeam Sect. After all, if you're not strong enough, nothing you say will make a difference.

Lin Chen is strong and has a high status. Even if the sect leader comes out, wouldn't he still be very respectful?
His feelings were quite complicated. If it weren't for the Jade Phoenix Grass, they wouldn't have suffered this calamity. However, it was precisely because it was the Jade Phoenix Grass that Lin Chen stood up for him.

Otherwise, even if it were the Human Emperor, he wouldn't care about such things if they weren't related to him. Just as Dong Wu said, the cultivation world is full of the law of the jungle, which is perfectly normal.

The flying boat traveled all the way and finally arrived at Dongshan City.

Lin Chen did not force his way through, because the barrier of a city is not something that can be easily broken through.

They paid the toll fee of spirit stones according to the normal procedure and then entered Dongshan City smoothly. After finding out the location of the city lord's mansion, the two went straight to the city lord's mansion.

Meanwhile, Qin Hao was drinking with a guest in the pavilion in the back garden of the city lord's mansion.

The guest was an old man with a slightly strange-looking nose. It was quite long and droopy, and it could retract and curl. He was a demon in disguise.

The old man, with an arrogant demeanor, said indifferently, "Has Lord Qin made up his mind?"

Qin Hao laughed and said, "I've thought it through. As long as their army arrives, I will open the city gates to welcome them, allowing you to take Dongshan City without losing a single soldier."

The old man's expression softened slightly: "Lord Qin, it's wonderful that you've made this decision. Actually, this is also a sign of my Demon Emperor's benevolence. What he wants is to conquer the world. Even if there is to be a battle, it's a matter between cultivators. Why involve ordinary people?"

"Don't worry, as long as you submit to our demon race, you will still be the city lord. Just complete our tasks and we will guarantee your safety."

Qin Hao cupped his hands in thanks: "Thank you very much, Mr. Xiang."

The old man waved his hand and said, "Since you've made your decision, take this pill."

The old man placed a red pill in front of Qin Hao. Qin Hao's eyes showed trepidation as he cautiously asked, "Mr. Xiang, what is this?"

The old man replied, "The Demon Heart Pill contains demon poison and requires regular antidote. Otherwise, you will grow hair all over your body, which means you will turn into the appearance of a demon beast."

Qin Hao's eyes widened in fear: "This antidote..."

The old man replied calmly, "As long as you obey orders, you will receive the antidote. Moreover, the Demon Heart Pill will become ineffective after taking the antidote ten times. We don't intend to control you indefinitely; we just want to ensure that you are sincere during this period and not just outwardly comply with our demands."

Qin Hao felt slightly relieved: "Okay, I'll eat it. Please take good care of me, Mr. Xiang!"

Qin Hao picked up the Demon Heart Pill and swallowed it, since he had no other choice.

The powerful demon was right in front of them; crushing him would be as easy as turning one's hand. The fact that the other party chose such a method clearly indicated that they had another plan.

In order to survive, he had no choice but to submit. At worst, he could join the demon race. After all, there were many humans among the demon race who had joined them and were living just as well.
The old man watched as Qin Hao swallowed the Demon Heart Pill, his expression softening slightly, and his gaze becoming a little more affectionate.

If someone can consume the Demon Heart Pill, it means they have genuinely pledged allegiance to the demon race. When the army arrives, there will be no need to worry about any unforeseen events.

The demon race is going to play a big game this time!
"Now that you have swallowed the Demon Heart Pill, you are considered a member of our Demon Kingdom. Follow us, and we will not mistreat you."

Upon seeing this, Qin Hao quickly took out a talisman-sealed medicine box, placed it in front of him, and said respectfully, "Mr. Xiang, these are three Emerald Phoenix Grasses. They are a small token of my appreciation. Please accept them."

The old man's eyes lit up. Jade Phoenix Grass was an extremely rare item, and three of them would be incredibly valuable.

The old man opened the box, looked inside, closed it with satisfaction, and a smile appeared on his face.

This Qin Hao is savvy!
It seems I'll have to promote him more in the future.

"Good, I'll accept the gift. You've put in a good effort. I'll find a way to help you advance to the Void Realm later."

Qin Hao was overjoyed and quickly clasped his hands in thanks, saying, "Thank you, Mr. Xiang!"

Just then, a servant announced from outside.

"My lord, there are two men outside requesting an audience. The one in the lead claims to be Lin Chen..."

Qin Hao was with an important guest in front of him, so he had no mind to see anyone else.
"If you don't see me, just say I'm not here."

No sooner had Qin Hao finished speaking than a clear voice suddenly rang out: "Lord Qin, it's not very fair of you to say you're not here when you're clearly here..."
