The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2449 A Different Explanation, Bizarre!

Luo Hongdan inherited her father's legacy and became a Quasi-Saint, so her father's strength must have been considerable.

Either a Quasi-Saint or a High-Grade Grand Luo Immortal.

If one breaks through another realm, wouldn't that be the Saint Realm?

Luo Hongdan nodded, her eyes filled with an unconcealable sadness and remembrance: "Yes."

Qi asked, "What do you know about my master being hunted down?"

Luo Hongdan replied, "My father was unaware of the ambush when Uncle Gu was attacked. Afterwards, my father went to investigate, hoping to see if he had escaped. However, all the people who chased him that day said that your master was killed on the spot, his body and soul destroyed."

Qi fell silent. She had also investigated the matter and reached the same conclusion as Luo Hongdan.

Did Qi's owner really die?
Lin Chen now knew that Qi's master was like her father, and she felt a lot of sympathy for Qi.

She must have hoped countless times that her master was not dead, which is why she worked so hard to find evidence to prove that he was still alive or truly dead.

Just as Lin Chen and Qi fell silent, Luo Hongdan spoke up again: "Although everyone says that Uncle Gu was killed and his body and soul were destroyed, when my father investigated, two people gave different accounts..."

Lin Chen's eyes suddenly lit up. Different?
Doesn't that mean there might be something fishy going on in this matter?
Before Lin Chen could ask a question, Qi's urgent voice rang out: "What do you mean by a different story?"

Luo Hongdan replied, "My father asked them how Uncle Gu died, and their accounts differed. One said he was struck by several magical artifacts at once, causing his body to shatter and die instantly. The other said he was severely injured, fell into a spatial domain, and was torn to pieces before dying..."

Lin Chen asked in surprise, "They all participated in the chase?"

Luo Hongdan nodded: "Yes, my father was surprised at the time. After receiving the second account, he turned to ask the first person, but the first person changed his story, saying that he was injured at the time and was not at the scene. He also heard it from someone else. When asked who told him, he said he couldn't remember..."

Lin Chen's eyes widened: "If both of them were present, then one of them must be lying. Why would they lie?"

Luo Hongdan said calmly, "My father suspected that Uncle Gu was still alive at the time, and investigated for a long time, but found nothing, so the matter was dropped."

Lin Chen couldn't help but ask, "Wasn't your father a good friend of Sister Qi's master? He was hunted down and killed. Since your father knew who the murderer was, why didn't he help him get revenge?"

Luo Hongdan glanced at Lin Chen and replied calmly, "I can't beat him, and I can't afford to offend him."

Lin Chen felt a chill in his heart, not because of Luo Qinghe's inaction, but because of the strength of these pursuers.

Luo Hongdan didn't make excuses and directly said that she couldn't beat him or afford to offend him. This shows that Luo Qinghe had considered helping his friend get revenge, but what could he do if he couldn't win?
If he successfully breaks through to the next realm, he might still be able to achieve something, but if he fails, what's the point of even trying to break through?

Lin Chen suddenly had a thought: "Is Senior Luo's breakthrough related to this matter?"

Luo Hongdan pursed her lips: "He didn't have to be in such a hurry, but he couldn't wait."

That's it!

Luo Qinghe and Qi Jie's master were close friends. Qi Jie's master was murdered by an incredibly powerful opponent. Luo Qinghe wanted to avenge his friend, but he was not strong enough. So, without being fully prepared, he took a gamble and ultimately failed.

As Luo Qinghe's daughter, although she rationally understood the situation, she must have harbored resentment towards this Uncle Gu. This explains why, when she saw Linglong Tower and Qi again, she did not show the joy of seeing old friends again, but instead confronted them head-on and found fault with them in various ways.

She knew she couldn't blame Qi, but it was clearly impossible for her to act affectionately towards Qi.

Qi paused for a few seconds, then said softly, "I'm so sorry..."

Luo Hongdan replied calmly, "That was my father's own choice, and it has nothing to do with you."

Lin Chen thought for a moment: "Do you know who those two people whose statements are inconsistent are? Can you tell me their names?"

Luo Hongdan nodded and revealed two names.

Qi calmly replied, "Thank you. I will continue to investigate this matter."

Luo Hongdan did not stop it, after all, she was well aware of the feelings between Qi and her master.

"Alright, everything's settled. I've done what I promised you. There's only one thing left: which people do you want to leave with?"

Lin Chen replied, "Fu Yunzi, Liu Yun, Xuan He... Lou Zihan."

Lin Chen paused for a moment, then added Lou Zihan's name: "Lou Zihan was poisoned by his master, Ghost Master, and is now under the influence of the poison..."

Luo Hongdan hummed in agreement, and the next second, her voice resounded throughout the heavens and spread throughout the entire world.

"The Phoenix Fire Spirit is now in my possession. Everyone, cease your search and fighting, and return to camp immediately!"
