The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2180 Now it's your turn to make a choice!
Death curse!

Zhou Hai's eyes lit up: "That's right! The sect leader once told us that he practiced a curse technique. If he were ever harmed by someone, he would curse that person, causing them to be afflicted by the curse. After he is reborn, he will be able to track down the curse and find the murderer who killed him!"

Liu Chong was startled. He remembered that Yu Shoudao had indeed said that!

Others may not know how Yu Shoudao died, but Liu Chong knows that it must have been Lin Chen who did it.

Liu Chong said in a deep voice, "The sect leader was killed, his body and soul destroyed, and he couldn't even escape. This shows that the murderer must be very powerful, most likely a Great Luo Immortal. Even if we want to avenge the sect leader, we need to have the strength to do so. If we rashly track down the curse and the murderer, wouldn't that be throwing our lives away?"

Zhao Xinyu chimed in, "That's right. The sect leader's resurrection box is missing, but that doesn't prove he's really dead. We should wait and see. At least send someone to contact Old Fu and the others to ask what happened. I don't really believe they've all betrayed the sect. I think there's more to this than meets the eye."

Zhou Tiande said in a deep voice, "You all know that the Sect Master has a close friend, a Great Luo Immortal. If the Sect Master encounters a crisis, you can ask her to come out and uphold justice for the Sect Master..."

Liu Chong's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly advised, "We haven't even figured out the situation yet. It would be inappropriate to rashly visit that Great Immortal."

Liu Chong was very worried that Zhou Tiande would summon the Great Immortal, so he quickly made up an excuse to delay.

He believed that if Lin Chen was behind this, they would soon return and take over the entire Three Saints Sect.

His task is to stall for time!

Zhou Tiande thought about it and agreed. He slowly nodded and said, "That's true. Anyway, the curse won't disappear in a day or two. Let's contact Lao Fu and the others first to see what's going on before making any plans... I don't believe they would harm the sect leader."

Liu Chong breathed a sigh of relief: "I agree. We'll send people to find them now, find out the truth, and then discuss it further."

The group decided to send people out to search for Fu Zongjing and Lei Hong. However, less than half a day later, Fu Zongjing and Lei Hong returned with the Heavenly Horse Knights!

Upon hearing the news, the crowd gathered at the Venerable One's Courtyard, waiting for Fu Zongjing and Lei Hong to give them an explanation.

"Resurrection Box?"

Fu Zongjing solemnly lied, "We took it, but we took it on the orders of the sect leader, because that resurrection box was fake."

fake?

Everyone stared wide-eyed at Fu Zongjing in shock, their faces filled with disbelief.

Zhao Tiande asked, "Did the sect leader send you to retrieve it? Where is the real resurrection box? Where is the sect leader?"

Fu Zongjing shook his head and said, "I don't know where the sect leader is, but he instructed us to pass on a message to you..."

Zhou Hai asked, "What did you say?" Fu Zongjing stood up and said, "Let's go, I'll take you somewhere."

Everyone followed Fu Zongjing and Lei Hong, leaving the Venerable's Courtyard and heading towards the depths of the sect's back mountain.

Zhou Hai followed behind the two and asked in confusion, "Could the sect leader's resurrection box be hidden in here?"

"You'll understand when you get there!"

The group traveled onward and quickly arrived at a place hundreds of miles away. Fu Zongjing turned around and looked at the group that had followed him, his gaze slightly subtle.

Silently, Lei Hong followed a few steps behind, and together with Fu Zongjing, they surrounded the group.

Sun Tiande looked around, puzzled, and asked, "Old Fu, what exactly do you want to tell us?"

Fu Zongjing sighed and said calmly, "It was Lin Chen who killed the sect leader."

Zhou Hai's expression changed drastically: "How did he do that? The sect leader is at the fifth level of perfection!"

Fu Zongjing replied, "Isn't there a black dragon beside him? That black dragon is now at the fifth level of perfection, and it also has a powerful array that can fold space. The sect leader was trapped in that array and was strangled by the array and the black dragon. In the end, he was devoured by the black dragon and his body and soul were destroyed."

Sun Tiande looked at Fu Zongjing with suspicion: "Were you all there? How do you know so much about it?"

Fu Zongjing nodded: "Yes, we were there, outside the formation, watching the sect leader being completely killed."

Sun Tiande angrily retorted, "Then you didn't help?"

Fu Zongjing calmly looked at Sun Tiande: "We can't help, and we dare not help, because our lives are in Lin Chen's hands. If he has a single thought, we will die, body and soul."

Sun Tiande and the others stared in disbelief, then suddenly snapped out of their daze.

"You sacrificed your true souls to him? You surrendered to Lin Chen?"

Fu Zongjing nodded, his gaze sweeping over Sun Tiande, Zhou Hai, and the others: "Yes, we were captured by Lin Chen in the Tianhe Secret Realm. If we didn't surrender, we would die. None of us wanted our cultivation levels to plummet, so we chose to surrender. Now it's your turn to make that choice."

"The sect leader is dead. The Three Saints Sect will now belong to Lin Chen. Will you choose to submit like us, or will you choose to swear allegiance to the sect leader and be reborn, only to be captured by us again and face the choice of fate once more?"
