The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1940 This is too exaggerated!

Mosquitoes besieged the city, forcing countless demon cultivators to abandon it and flee.

Even a group of powerful figures from the Heavenly Fox Palace couldn't withstand a swarm of mosquitoes; even a Celestial Immortal was drained dry.

What kind of mosquito?
so smart?

The middle-aged man replied, "I don't know either. I've only heard that the creature commanding these mosquitoes is a black mosquito that's bigger than a mountain, but it's just a rumor. I don't know for sure..."

Lin Chen asked a couple more questions, then let them leave.

"What kind of mosquito is this? It's so powerful! Sister Ziyun, have you ever heard of it?"

Immortal Lord Ziyun shook his head: "Although all life in the world can become demons, and mosquito demons are not special beings, I have never heard of such a ferocious mosquito... Shall we go and take a look?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Nalan is here, we should go and see her. Didn't they say she was trapped? Let's lend a hand."

Lin Chen is truly fearless now. Not to mention the super strong Ziyun Immortal Lord, with the Linglong Pagoda here, what is there to be afraid of!

Regardless of whether he could win, the Linglong Pagoda's defense was invincible. With it, he could escape into the Linglong Pagoda at any time. At least in the Thunder Immortal Realm, there was probably no one who could stop him from escaping through the Linglong Pagoda.

If that's the case, what is there to worry about?

"Let's go then!"

The two headed towards Cangyun City, encountering many fleeing demon cultivators and numerous commercial flying boats along the way. The flying boats were packed with people, families with children, all of them refugees.

Lin Chen frowned: "Those who can leave on merchant ships are probably all quite wealthy. The poorest people probably don't even have the money to travel by airship. And it seems that most of them are human?"

Immortal Lord Ziyun nodded: "For demon cultivators to awaken their intelligence and take human form, which is equivalent to our Nascent Soul Realm, demon cultivators who reach this level obviously cannot become ordinary people. Therefore, the foundation of all cities is entirely composed of humans."

"The demon race rules over the human race, treating them as their servants. They make the humans build cities, cultivate crops, produce goods, and so on for them. They then strictly control cultivation resources. Without cultivation resources, the human race can never become strong. Even if there are one or two exceptional individuals, they are often recruited or eliminated by the demon race."

"There are actually quite a few humans on the Heavenly Demon Continent, but because they are suppressed, they have no chance to rise above their circumstances. At least, on the path of immortality, they have no way out."

Lin Chen was silent for a moment, then asked, "Can their lives be guaranteed?"

"It depends on the location."

Immortal Lord Ziyun replied, “The attitudes of cities under the rule of each power towards humans are different. Some only strictly control cultivation resources and do not care about anything else, treating humans no differently from ordinary citizens. Others treat humans as slaves, trampling on their lives at will… It’s up to fate.”

Lin Chen felt a slight pang of sorrow for the fate of the human race on the Heavenly Demon Continent, but he was powerless to change it. He was not a saint.

Before long, they arrived at Cangyun City.

Cangyun City is a magnificent city with a vast area, but at this moment it is trapped in a very strange environment.

Looking into the distance, the sky was a blood-red color, enveloping Cangyun City.

Getting a little closer, they were horrified to discover that the crimson sky was actually writhing!

As you get closer, you can see clearly that the blood-red color of the sky is made up of countless blood-red mosquitoes, which are changing and dancing in the sky, blotting out the sun.

"There are a lot of mosquitoes, but surely not so many that even a demon cultivator couldn't handle them and couldn't escape?"

Immortal Lord Ziyun replied, "There must be something strange about this swarm of mosquitoes. Be careful."

The most reliable option would naturally be to hide inside the Linglong Tower, but Lin Chen really wanted to see just how powerful these mosquitoes were.

"Enter the city."

A golden light shield appeared around the two of them, like a sphere protecting them, and they exuded a terrifying aura of power.

They went towards the swarming mosquitoes, and to Lin Chen's astonishment, even a fierce tiger or lion king would be terrified and paralyzed under such pressure, yet these mosquitoes seemed to feel nothing at all.

Weird!
As the two approached the swarm of mosquitoes, the mosquitoes naturally noticed the two uninvited intruders and instantly swarmed around them.

Just as the mosquitoes swarmed over, Lin Chen suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

He felt someone staring at him with evil eyes, eyes so sinister and malevolent that they sent chills down his spine.

Was it that giant mosquito, as big as a mountain?

Lin Chen looked around but didn't find any trace of the huge, mountain-like mosquitoes; all he saw were swarms of mosquitoes.

Lin Chen looked at the mosquitoes that had swarmed around him. Each of these mosquitoes was quite large, about the size of a fist, with a blood-red body and a metallic black hue. They looked no different from ordinary mosquitoes, except that they seemed to be magnified a thousand times.

Lin Chen suddenly realized that the evil gaze seemed to be coming from right in front of him!
It doesn't originate from any one mosquito, but from every single mosquito!
These mosquitoes had evil eyes, filled with cold malice, staring at Lin Chen as if they were intelligent beings.
