The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2144 Remaining Uninvolved, Watching the Battle Over Tea

"kill!"

Having said all that, they had nothing more to say to each other, and all that remained was the clash of fists.

The victor has everything, the loser loses everything!
The entire vast space instantly turned into a battlefield, with countless powerful individuals clashing and causing massive damage.

Lin Chen and the others hid at the back, avoiding the terrifying shockwave, and did not rush to make a move.

Even if these scattered soldiers possessed celestial-level strength, they would be of little use on such a battlefield.

The core combat force was the Five Directions Immortal Sect and many other top-tier forces. With the combined efforts of numerous Grand Luo Venerables, only the remaining scattered soldiers and generals were left for their subordinates, whose experts were at the level of Pegasus Knights, to take action.

Although these people are not at the level of a Great Luo Venerable, they come from the same sect and cooperate seamlessly with each other, resulting in overlapping combat power and immense strength.

Hong Guiling summoned her magical artifact to block the incoming spiritual energy, while shouting, "What do we do?"

Xiao Shubo smiled bitterly: "Those two holes were dug by Lu Yao. The direction of those holes is the place where those two large groups of people were trapped. Obviously, there is no way out. We can't escape at all... Before killing Qin Zheng, the only people who can leave here are probably Qin Zheng and Lu Yao."

Song Jun said with a wry smile, "This battlefield is too chaotic; we can easily get caught in the crossfire."

Xiao Shubo took out an array plate from his spatial storage: "This is the Five Absolutes Array. By combining the power of the five of us, it might be able to stop those who attack us, since those who attack us won't be too strong..."

Lin Chen shook his head: "If it were a Grand Luo Venerable who came, even if he just flew by casually and saw our Five Absolute Formation, he might hit us and we would all be finished. The most important thing for us now is to hide!"

"I have a secret weapon that can hide us. I can guarantee your safety; all you need to do is trust me..."

Lu Xinyan interrupted Lin Chen: "I believe you!"

Hung Kuei-ling added, "I believe you too. We made a vow, and you won't harm us."

Song Jun hesitated for a moment: "I'm fine with it."

Xiao Shubo put away the array plate and said quickly, "If they have no problem, then I naturally have no problem either."

Previously, the Three Saints Sect had issued a warrant for their arrest throughout the continent. Although Lin Chen wanted to protect them, he still wouldn't reveal his trump card or identity. He took out the Whirlwind Flag.

"Don't resist, relax, I guarantee you'll be fine!"

The whirlwind flag swept over everyone, successfully enveloping them. The flag quickly shrank, becoming the size of a hand scroll, which he then concealed behind his back and stored in the Linglong Pagoda.

His actions indeed attracted the attention of many people, after all, they were Lu Yao's companions before, including a general at the level of a Great Luo Immortal. In the midst of his busy schedule, he turned around and reached out to grab at the air.

The space around Lin Chen collapsed and shrank instantly. Lin Chen screamed and his body instantly turned into a pool of blood mist.

This scene surprised everyone around.

Wow, I thought these people were with Lu Yao, maybe they were some hidden masters, but they turned out to be novices who got killed in one hit.
It seems that Lu Yao was traveling with them only to use them to conceal his identity, enter this place silently, and wait for an opportunity to make his move.

Those who had been paying attention to Lin Chen and his team members forgot about them in the blink of an eye after Lin Chen's death.

With so many things to deal with at the scene, who has the time to care about someone who's already dead? Lu Yao glanced back at Lin Chen, who had exploded into a bloody mist, frowned, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, but then she quickly regained her composure.

This kid is even more powerful than I thought. The one that was killed just now must have been his clone, right?

This clone is so unfathomable that there is only one possibility: it is a bloodline clone technique!
He possesses the bloodline clone ability despite his celestial-level strength; that's quite interesting!
The moment Lu Yao turned around, Qin Zheng on the other side moved.

Instead of lunging at Lu Yao, he flew towards the top of the entire hall at an incredible speed.

Lu Yao hadn't turned his head yet, but his hand had already moved.

With a sweep of the Netherworld Emperor Sword, a beam of sword light chased after Qin Zheng.

This sword light was nothing fancy; it was just a simple sword light, much like a burst of spiritual energy emitted by an ordinary cultivator. Yet, this simple sword light was filled with terrifying fluctuations.

A burly general, resembling a giant god and shimmering with golden light, charged out from the side, brandishing his weapon and slashing at the sword light, shouting, "If you want to harm my emperor, first..."

Before the general could finish speaking, the sword light clashed with the weapon in his hand.

The weapon in his hand twisted, shattered, and scattered in all directions. The sword light pierced through his primordial spirit and continued to chase Qin Zheng.

The general's body appeared unharmed, but his eyes revealed an expression of extreme terror.

He looked down at his chest, where the sword energy had passed through, and suddenly ripples appeared, as if a large stone had been thrown into a calm lake, causing a series of ripples to spread out.

Where the sword energy passed, his primordial spirit suddenly rippled, and wherever the ripples reached, his body continuously shattered into tiny fragments.

As the ripple spread throughout his body, his entire primordial spirit shattered like a broken light bulb, turning into countless fragments that flew through the air. They were then blown apart by the surrounding violent spiritual energy, instantly disappearing without a trace.

Instant kill!

This general was quite powerful; even though he was only at the Nascent Soul stage, he was at least at the level of a Great Luo Immortal. However, he was powerless to resist Lu Yao's sword strike.

The sword flash killed the general blocking the way and continued to pursue Qin Zheng.

Qin Zheng slammed his left palm into the center of the dome of the huge underground space, and punched the sword energy with his right fist.

"boom!"

The massive collision instantly transformed into incredibly violent shockwaves that swept outwards in all directions, instantly killing countless people.

Among the unfortunate were adventurers and Qin Shi Huang's subordinates. After all, no matter how large this place was, it was still just a tomb space. Before the formation was broken, where could anyone escape to?

Under the onslaught of the chaotic shockwave, no one saw the small tower being swept up by the energy, thrown far away, and roll to the pile of bluestones that Lu Yao had broken through the wall earlier. It then disappeared into the bluestones, becoming like a piece of broken brick and tile, blending seamlessly into its surroundings, and remained motionless.

Inside the tower, Lin Chen sat cross-legged in the main hall, with a tea table in front of him, on which was freshly brewed tea and a whirlwind flag.

Lin Chen took the teacup Qi handed him, smiled, poured the tea into his mouth, and said with a smile, "Good tea! Now we can enjoy the show..."
