The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1689 How can you be so useless?

Hundreds of cultivators floated above the lake.

Some of them were at least Golden Immortals and therefore unable to enter the cave, while others arrived too late upon hearing the news and did not have time to enter the cave.

They waited silently.

"The tremors in the lake have stopped, so the fighting inside should have ceased."

"Judging from the intensity of the tremors just now, the battle must have been fierce!"

"After all, so many people went in, most of them were Earth Immortals or True Immortals. If they all started fighting, how could the commotion be small? But this cave is really amazing; it wasn't destroyed at all!"

"Guess what happened inside? How many people will come out alive?"

"Hey, need I say more? It must be people from the Qishan Meiwang Sect. They have so many people in there, giving them a huge home-field advantage!"

"That's not necessarily true. Maybe others are joining forces against them. Such a strong tremor means the battle is very intense!"

"Just wait, it'll come out eventually!"

Amidst the murmurs of the crowd, the powerful figure from the Qishan Plum King Sect in the center remained calm. He glanced around and asked, "Is the area completely sealed off?"

Someone nearby replied, "It's all sealed off. They're just True Immortals; none of them can escape!"

"Okay, wait for them to come out, then find out what happened inside. Until then, no one is allowed to run!"

"Yes!"

As they were talking, a golden light suddenly appeared beneath the surface of the lake. This golden light rose from the bottom of the lake in an instant and then burst out of the lake.

The golden light remained on the lake's surface, rapidly expanding until it transformed into a portal of light.

All the onlookers were invigorated.

"It's coming out!"

"There's some movement!"

"Look at that!"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, an adventurer covered in blood stepped out, looking at the familiar scenery around him, a relieved smile on his face.

Those around gasped.

"The first one to come out is in such a terrible state, what exactly happened?"

"Shouldn't the winner come out first?"

"Perhaps the victor is in the end?"

With flashes of light and shadow, one adventurer after another emerged. Some were listless and needed to be supported, while others were covered in blood and had suffered serious injuries, looking extremely disheveled.

Zhou Wu stepped out and was lifted into the air by a gentle force.

All the disciples of the Qishan Meiwang Sect have had their seas of consciousness sealed, and the seal hasn't been lifted yet. After all, who knows what kind of trouble might arise if the seal is lifted on so many people?
The expressions of the higher-ups of the Qishan Meiwang Sect changed. They could naturally see that although the disciples of the Qishan Meiwang Sect did not appear to be seriously injured, each of them needed to be carried and did not even have the most basic ability to fly. Clearly, their sea of ​​consciousness had been sealed.

Although the final victor is still unknown, it is clear that the disciples of the Qishan Meiwang Sect have failed.

The group exchanged glances, and they all saw the determination in each other's eyes.

We absolutely cannot let anyone leave!

This is the territory of the Mei Wang Clan of Qishan!

Several powerful figures rushed over, and with a wave of their hands, all the disciples of the Qishan Plum King Sect were lifted up, away from the light gate, and appeared in front of the powerful figures.

Tie Shanhe, the deputy sect leader in charge of the branch, asked in a deep voice, "Zhou Wu, what happened?"

Zhou Wu replied dejectedly, "The cave's master, Gao Yu, is not dead. He is like a dried corpse. He set a trap to lure us in, and then used the True Fire of the Sun and the True Scripture of the Sun as bait to make us kill each other and weaken our strength. He planned to absorb our blood essence to restore himself, but in the end, he was killed by two adventurers working together, which is how we survived."

Everyone was shocked; Gao Yu was still alive?

This was actually a trap he set!

While everyone was shocked, they also noticed two words.

The sun is so hot!

The True Scripture of the Sun!

Everyone's eyes lit up immediately, especially the many powerful figures from the Qishan Meiwang Sect, who became excited in an instant.

"Who possesses the True Fire of the Sun and the True Scripture of the Sun?"

Zhou Wu replied dejectedly, "The True Fire of the Sun is in the hands of a disciple of the White Crane Immortal Sect. The True Scripture of the Sun should have been destroyed along with Gao Yu's shattered spatial ring, and no one has obtained it."

"What? The Sun Sutra is gone?"

Tie Shanhe angrily rebuked, "How can you be so useless? Don't you know his value?"

Zhou Wu, his face flushed, retorted, "He was a peak Celestial Immortal. At the time, he wanted to kill us all and drain our life essence. It was only thanks to the combined efforts of the White Crane Immortal Sect and the two disciples from Ghost King's Tomb, who used all sorts of super techniques, that we were saved and he was killed. In that kind of outburst, no one dared to hold back."

"At that moment, Gao Yu was completely shattered by that attack; most of his bones were broken, and the ring naturally shattered along with it..."

Tieshanhe was speechless.

Okay, I understand.

After all that, forget about stealing the True Fire of the Sun or the True Scripture of the Sun. Even the fact that these disciples were able to come out alive is thanks to the protection of those two people; otherwise, they would all probably be dead.

"There's only the true fire of the sun, what else is there?"

Zhou Wu answered honestly, "There's also a golden spear, which is Gao Yu's magic weapon. The Ghost King's Tomb disciple got it, and the White Crane Immortal Sect disciple with the True Sun Fire got it. We searched the entire mansion, but found nothing of value..."
