The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2053 If you've got the guts, come in!
Nangong Ye hovered in mid-air, looking at the celestial palace in front of him, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

He saw Lin Chen.

He instinctively clenched his fist and threw a punch.

This punch was earth-shattering, yet Lin Chen didn't even flinch, because there was a thick barrier in front of him.

Nangong Ye's punch landed on the barrier, causing it to tremble slightly, but it did not break.

"Wow, you've got some strength. The barrier is trembling. If you put in a little more effort, it might just break."

Lin Chen stood behind the barrier, teasing Nangong Ye with a smile.

Nangong Ye stared coldly at Lin Chen: "Another clone?"

"if not?"

Lin Chen readily admitted, "You are a Great Luo Venerable, and at the second level. If you want to kill me, it's just a matter of lifting a finger. If I were to face you in my true form, wouldn't that be courting death?"

Nangong Ye sneered, "Are you planning to hide behind this tortoise shell forever?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "What else can we do? You can't expect me to come out and fight you, the Great Luo Venerable, can you? Since you're so powerful anyway, why don't you put in some effort and shatter this barrier? Then who here can stop you?"

Nangong Ye watched Lin Chen flirt with him, so angry that he almost ground his teeth to powder.

The Starfield Flying Ship carries a powerful spirit stone cannon, which is specifically designed to counter the protective formations of cultivation sects. Although it consumes a huge amount of resources, its power is also incredibly astonishing. One shot can shatter any barrier.

With the Star Domain Flying Boat, breaking through the Immortal Palace's barrier would be a piece of cake. Unfortunately, Lin Chen ruined the Star Domain Flying Boat. The core components and the spirit stone cannon on it were all taken away by Lin Chen, leaving only an empty shell.

They couldn't even fly, let alone fire cannons to attack the city.

Lin Chen's gaze passed over Nangong Ye and landed behind him.

A few Pegasus knights without their own celestial horses, and about a hundred immortals—these immortals were clearly coerced into coming—all wore sorrowful expressions, showing no signs of aggression towards the Celestial Palace, but rather looking as if they were about to be executed. "Is this all the people you found? Just to make up the numbers? It doesn't look very impressive at all, far less imposing than the previous ten-thousand-strong army..."

Nangong Ye gritted his teeth; this kid's mouth was just too annoying!
Nangong Ye certainly wanted to capture more immortals, but the Immortal Palace spread the news of the Three Saints Sect's defeat and their true purpose of kidnapping immortals everywhere. Most of the immortal cultivation sects that came along the way only had some old, weak, sick and disabled people left to guard the area, and all the others had disappeared and gone into hiding.

Given this situation, where would Nangong Ye go to arrest people?

Even if he were a Great Immortal, he couldn't conjure a person out of thin air, could he?
There are quite a few low-level cultivators, but what use would it be if we captured tens of thousands of them? They wouldn't even be considered cannon fodder.
Nangong Ye asked coldly, "Where is Yao Xiong? Since when did it become your place as a special envoy to make decisions for the Immortal Palace?"

Lin Chen chuckled and said, "You're right. I really can make the decisions in the Immortal Palace now. I'm the one who calls the shots here. What, you have a problem with that?"

Nangong Ye glanced around and sneered, "Aren't there two Grand Luo Venerables? I'm just one person. Why don't you come out and kill me? This is your chance."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "You are at the second level of the realm, and it is said that you can crush those at the first level. I am afraid of dying, so it is better for me to hide in here. If you have the ability, then break through the barrier and come in. Then I will have no choice but to fight you."

Nangong Ye was furious to see Lin Chen hiding behind the barrier so openly and confidently.

Although Nangong Ye knew that Lin Chen's actions were perfectly correct and reasonable, he was inexplicably angry because Lin Chen's provocative attitude was just too infuriating!
Since Nangong Ye had brought these people with him, he had naturally anticipated the situation. He waved his hand and shouted to the hundreds of immortals behind him, "Attack! Everyone attack! Charge at one point!"

The numerous immortals captured by Nangong Ye dared not disobey and unleashed their magical treasures, launching a fierce attack within the area designated by Nangong Ye.

The magical treasures of hundreds of immortals bombarded the barrier within a very small area, causing the barrier to tremble and the arc of the tremor to increase significantly.

Lin Chen watched for a while and then laughed, "It seems it's still a little lacking. Why don't you let them attack first, and then you go and capture more immortals?"

Nangong Ye ignored Lin Chen.

He discovered that whenever he spoke up, Lin Chen would always make sarcastic and sarcastic remarks, which made him extremely angry.

Since that's the case, let's just not say anything!
Once I break this barrier, I'll see what kind of face you'll have then.
