The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1625 We are special envoys from headquarters!

The nameless mountain range, with its towering peaks, has been carved hundreds of meters into its interior, creating a huge cavern.

An array was set up inside the cave, filling the entire cave and emitting a faint white light. In the very center of this array was a large hole, like a dark well, leading directly underground.

Pure spiritual energy was rapidly gushing out of the cave. After bursting out of the cave, this spiritual energy was captured by the formation and eventually flowed evenly into the five stone chambers in different directions.

The five stone chambers were cleverly connected to the array. In each chamber, a person sat cross-legged, diligently absorbing the continuously flowing pure spiritual energy.

Outside the cave, an elderly man with white hair sat cross-legged in a stone cave, his eyes closed, motionless, like a lifeless stone.

Zhao Datong led Lin Chen and the other three towards the cave.

Trying to sneak up on a Celestial Immortal is simply impossible, even for someone as powerful as Guo Qiuyu, who possesses the terrifying strength of a late-stage Celestial Immortal.

Only a surprise attack will do!

By combining the power of three celestial beings, they delivered a fatal blow to their opponent.

Success or failure depends on luck!

Lin Chen and Guo Qiuyu disguised themselves briefly, since both of them had shown their faces at the Divine Fire Martial Arts Tournament. If this Celestial Immortal were there, he would recognize them at a glance.

Guo Qiuyu and the other two used a secret technique to conceal their strength, so as not to be seen through at a glance and thus be on guard.

Capturing a wary celestial being is no easy feat.

As Zhao Datong and his group approached the valley, the aged voice of the Celestial Immortal in charge rang out: "Who are you?"

Zhao Datong respectfully replied, "Immortal, I am Zhao Datong, a disciple of the Black Thunder Sect. I am here on the orders of the Black-Clad Blood Envoy to deliver a batch of array materials. These people are special envoys from headquarters. The envoy instructed me to bring them here for a look."

Lin Chen stood behind Zhao Datong, feeling quite nervous.

The array materials were constantly being consumed and needed to be replenished, but the Black Thunder Sect disciples had never been asked to send them. Fortunately, the reason for sending Zhao Datong and another person to a nearby city to purchase materials was barely acceptable.

The identity of the envoy was made up by Lin Chen. After all, no matter what the reason, bringing strangers to this place would inevitably arouse great vigilance. The only people who could make him lower his guard were his own people, or even his own people with a higher status than him.

Lin Chen didn't know if he could keep it from the other party.

The only option is to gamble.

After a few anxious seconds, the aged voice rang out again: "Come here."

Lin Chen suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

The first step was a success!
Now it's all about the surprise attack!
The reason Celestial Immortals are so difficult to deal with is because their perception and early warning abilities are too strong, making it hard to get close enough to unleash their ultimate attacks. Add to that their superior strength, speed, and escape abilities, and killing them becomes incredibly difficult. If this attack had only involved one Celestial Immortal, there would have been virtually no chance of success. But now there are three, including one in the late-stage of the Celestial Immortal realm!
Zhao Datong led the group cautiously as they flew inwards, and soon they arrived at the location where the old man was hiding.

The old man opened his eyes and looked at the crowd: "Who sent you all as messengers?"

Lin Chen answered first: "Wei Jiao, Lady Wei, she sent us to discuss some cooperation."

The old man frowned: "Red-robed Blood Envoys? Each Blood Envoy is responsible for a different region. What cooperation can we discuss?"

Is Wei Jiao the Red-Clad Blood Envoy?
No wonder when I saw her that day, she was dressed in a bright red dress, so dazzlingly beautiful!

Lin Chen replied, "Here is a letter from the master; you will understand once you read it."

Lin Chen turned his head to the side and nodded his chin.

Guo Qiuyu floated forward, took out a jade slip from her spatial ring, and tossed it to the old man.

The old man subconsciously caught the jade slip and scanned it with his divine sense, only to find that the jade slip was blank.

Did they take the wrong one?
The old man subconsciously looked up, wanting to ask a question, but suddenly saw Guo Qiuyu's palm print growing larger and larger in front of him.

The two were only a few meters apart, a distance that, to Guo Qiuyu, was practically the same as if they were right in front of each other.

Just as the old man was distracted by examining the jade slip, Guo Qiuyu suddenly made his move.

This strike was faster than lightning and more powerful than thunder!
The old man's eyes showed fear, and a golden barrier appeared around his body. However, the barrier was shattered by Guo Qiuyu's attack as soon as it appeared.

How could a defensive magic treasure's barrier withstand a full-force attack from a top-tier celestial being?

Guo Qiuyu's palm strike appeared effortless, like a casual strike from an ordinary martial artist at such close range, yet it contained immense and boundless power.

This palm strike shattered the barrier and landed directly on the old man.

The old man's body erupted with a ferocious aura, like a primordial beast about to burst forth. However, when it collided with Guo Qiuyu's palm, this aura was instantly shattered.

Bones broke, blood splattered.

At the same time, the other two celestial beings from the Myriad Flowers Palace rushed forward from the left and right, blocking his escape route.

Lin Chen wasn't idle either. With a flick of his hand, the array flags of the Five Elements Immortal Slaying Array flew out and took up positions in five directions. The array flags stood upright and instantly connected together, sealing off the entire valley.
