The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1919 The Kingdom of Demons

The Heavenly Demon Continent is unique in the entire Thunder Immortal Realm. Other continents are dominated by human cultivators, and even the Dragon Spirit Continent, which is somewhat special, is jointly ruled by humans and dragons. However, the Heavenly Demon Continent is ruled by the demon race.

The Heavenly Demon Continent is not devoid of humans; on the contrary, there are quite a few humans. However, humans on the Heavenly Demon Continent are completely enslaved and controlled.

The powerful demon races of the entire Thunder Immortal Realm have basically gathered on the Heavenly Demon Continent, making it a land of countless strong individuals. Although some geniuses have risen among the human race, they still cannot break through the overall trend. The better ones are absorbed into the army, while the unluckier ones are eliminated.

In the Heavenly Demon Continent, the demon race is the absolute ruler!
They will not tolerate the existence of human cultivators who could potentially overthrow the rule of the demon race.

If the dragons of the Dragon Spirit Continent reign supreme over the mountains, then the Heavenly Demon Continent is a land divided into kingdoms.

The Land of Demons.

When Yao Xiong unified the Thunder Immortal Realm, all the powerful demon races of the Heavenly Demon Continent jointly submitted a memorial to congratulate him, acknowledging Yao Xiong as the master of the Immortal Realm. However, they also subtly pointed out that the Heavenly Demon Continent was a demon race country and did not want to get involved in too many human cultivators' struggles.

Yao Xiong naturally understood what they meant. They were simply acknowledging you as the domain lord on the surface, but in reality, the Heavenly Demon Continent was independent and not subject to any jurisdiction. They would obey orders but not commands.

Yao Xiong unified the Immortal Realm in order to restore order and clarity to the Immortal Realm. He had no intention of interfering in the internal affairs of the Demon Race, nor did he intend to use his strength to conquer the Heavenly Demon Continent. Therefore, he readily agreed.

"Who are you, and what brings you to the Heavenly Demon Continent?"

Lin Chen and Immortal Lord Ziyun were startled by the grand spectacle around them as soon as they passed through the domain gate.

The dense array released a powerful aura, and all around were serious-looking demon cultivators, their eyes fixed on Lin Chen, filled with vigilance and wariness.

Lin Chen took out the Immortal Palace Token, infused it with spiritual energy, and released an image to reveal his identity.

Unlike the previous Immortal Palace Tokens, the Immortal Palace Token that Lin Chen is giving this time was given by Yao Xiong, not Yao Xuanji.

Yao Xiong was a genuine Domain Lord, and the Immortal Palace Token he issued naturally commanded even greater awe.

"An envoy from the Celestial Palace?"

The attitude of the surrounding demon cultivators immediately changed; they weren't exactly respectful, but at least they became more polite.

No matter how independent the Heavenly Demon Continent may be, on the surface they are still part of the Immortal Realm and must give face to the Immortal Palace.

The envoy from the Celestial Palace represents Domain Lord Yao Xiong, so naturally, we need to be more polite.

Lin Chen nodded: "I am on the orders of the Domain Lord to go to the Heavenly Fox Palace on business."

The Heavenly Fox Palace, one of the ten great immortal sects, is the chief of the Seven-Person Round Table Meeting of the Heavenly Demon Continent. It holds an unparalleled and prestigious position throughout the entire Heavenly Demon Continent and is a hegemonic force.

Having confirmed Lin Chen and his companions' identities, the demon cultivators quickly made way for them. After finding out the location of the Heavenly Fox Palace, Lin Chen declined the demon cultivators' offer to guide them.

As he was about to leave, Lin Chen casually asked, "I noticed that this place is heavily guarded and the checks are very strict. Who are you trying to keep an eye on?"

The guard leader replied, "It's routine guard duty. We're not guarding against anyone. After all, our Heavenly Demon Continent is a place where demons live. We need to prevent people with ulterior motives from entering and causing unnecessary trouble."

Lin Chen nodded, said no more, and left with Ziyun Immortal Lord.

Not long after the two left, a middle-aged man dressed as an honest-looking businessman walked over from the side, glanced in the direction Lin Chen and Ziyun Immortal Lord had left, and frowned.

The guard leader clearly recognized the man and chuckled, "Mr. Zhou, what kind of business is this that you need to personally handle it?"

The middle-aged man laughed and said, "It's a small business, so we can't afford any mistakes. Besides, there are quite a few human cultivators in my caravan, so I have to come over and say hello to avoid any misunderstandings."

As the middle-aged man spoke, he walked up to the guard leader and skillfully placed a spatial ring into the guard leader's hand.

The guard leader smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou, you're being too polite?"

The middle-aged man smiled ingratiatingly and said, "Everyone here on guard duty has worked very hard. Here's a little money for tea, please have a cup of tea with the captain and all the brothers."

The guard leader smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou, you're so kind. I've heard your business is growing bigger and bigger. You must be making a fortune."

The middle-aged man chuckled, "I'm just earning a little money through hard work, and it's also convenient for everyone. By the way, that couple from earlier looked quite young, where did they come from?"

The guard leader replied, "Don't let his youth fool you. He's a special envoy from the Celestial Palace, representing the Domain Lord on business at the Heavenly Fox Palace."

The middle-aged man frowned and said, "Immortal Palace envoys, do you know why they've come? The Heavenly Demon Continent is not under the jurisdiction of the Immortal Palace..."

The guard leader laughed and said, "Who cares what he's here for? That's something big shots need to worry about, not something we little people need to concern ourselves with. Why are you asking about this?"

The middle-aged man's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled, "It was just a casual question. It's a bit unexpected, after all, the Immortal Palace has never cared about the Heavenly Demon Continent. It's a bit strange that they suddenly sent a special envoy."

As they were talking, light flashed in the domain gate, and a group of people passed through the gate and appeared in the square.

If Lin Chen hadn't left yet, he would have recognized at a glance that this group of people were many high-ranking members of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and the leader was none other than Xuan Yuan Feiying.

The middle-aged man's eyes lit up, and he smiled, "My caravan has arrived..."
