The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2676 Has he always been this arrogant?

Lin Chen turned his head in surprise. Who was so arrogant, attracting hatred the moment they met?

The man who spoke was at least 2.1 meters tall, with a burly build. He wore a rough-style vest, revealing two thick, muscular arms covered in tattoos. He appeared incredibly imposing and tall, like an iron tower.

The man also had a tattoo between his eyebrows, which marked his identity as a member of the Southern Wilderness Barbarian Tribe.

The barbarians lived in tribes, and the tattoo on their foreheads was the tribal totem. His forehead had a Tengshe pattern, which proved that he belonged to the Tengshe tribe.

Qi Gongji glanced at the man and said coldly, "Jin Daoyuan, your mouth is as foul as ever."

Jin Daoyuan laughed heartily, his gaze sweeping over the group of Illusion Serpent Sect disciples behind Qi Gongji. He shook his head, a look of regret on his face: "Your Illusion Serpent Sect already had very few people, and you still managed to cobble together a team. If they all perish in the Bloodbath, wouldn't you suffer a heavy loss and your sect be facing a crisis of succession?"

Qi Gongji calmly replied, "Killing isn't about talking. Your voice is so loud, it seems your strength has improved recently, and your tone has become arrogant. Why don't we have a match before the bloodbath begins?"

Kim Do-won laughed and said, "Just kidding. Why are you getting so worked up? Now is not the time for us to fight."

Jin Daoyuan glanced around: "I heard that after you, someone from your Illusion Serpent Sect has comprehended the Dragon Sand Illusion God Technique and become your Holy Son. He should be at the Great Luo Immortal level, right? Will he participate in this Bloodbath?"

Qi Gongji said coldly, "He will participate."

Jin Daoyuan laughed: "That's good. I've heard of the Sand Dragon Illusion God Technique, and several warriors in my tribe would like to see it for themselves."

Qi Gongji sneered: "They will see for themselves; I just hope they won't regret it."

Jin Daoyuan didn't care at all, spreading his hands: "Warriors are not afraid of death, for the sake of the tribe! But you finally found a successor, only to send him into a killing trap. Aren't you afraid he will perish in it?"

Qi Gongji calmly replied, "The path of immortality defies the heavens; the fighting and strife never cease. If he dies within it, then that is his fate!"

Kim Do-won laughed and said, "Good, that's spirited!"

Lin Chen observed the conversation and once again sensed the weakness of the Illusion Serpent Sect.

Nowadays, the Illusion Serpent Sect is probably only able to maintain its overall stability thanks to its sect leader, Qi Gongji. As a result, when faced with external provocations, only Qi Gongji's personal intervention can save face.

If Qi Gongji were to die one day, the Illusion Serpent Sect would likely face a talent shortage and decline completely.

Jin Daoyuan was clearly an old acquaintance of Qi Gongji, and there was some grudge between them, so when he saw Qi Gongji arrive, he came up and made a few sarcastic remarks.

Qi Gongji ignored Jin Daoyuan and led the group directly into the demon camp to the north. Soon, a temporary camp was built. Lin Chen was about to go out for a stroll when he suddenly heard a chorus of greetings.

"Senior Brother Lü!"

"Senior Brother Lü, you've finally arrived! I was worried you wouldn't make it in time!"

"Greetings, Senior Brother Lü!"

Lin Chen turned his head and saw a tall but rather ordinary-looking young man stepping into the camp entrance. His face was cold and arrogant, and he merely nodded indifferently to the greetings of the many disciples without saying a word.

Holy Son Lü Wenjing?
Lu Wenjing walked in, his gaze sweeping over Kong Ling before landing on Lin Chen. He frowned slightly and said, "Who are you? I've never seen you before."

Lin Chen calmly replied, "Lin Chen, a disciple of the Battle Hall of the Myriad Immortals Palace."

Lu Wenjing was taken aback, and the coldness on his face softened slightly: "Why is a disciple of the Battle Hall here?"

Kong Ling replied, "They are my two friends who came to visit me and happened to stumble upon this matter. They wanted to help me out, so they asked the sect for two spots to fight alongside us."

Lu Wenjing nodded, cupped his hands in greeting to Lin Chen, and entered the residence of Sect Master Qi Gongji.

Lin Chen transmitted his voice to Kong Ling, "This guy is very arrogant. Is he like this when he's out and about? Isn't he afraid of getting beaten up?"

Kong Ling sneered: "Who told him to be the Holy Son, one of only two practitioners of the Dragon Illusion God Technique? Putting aside other places, in this Illusion Serpent Sect, the most important person besides the sect leader is him. In their words, the sect leader is the past and the present, while the Holy Son is the present and the future."

"A rising star of the sect!"

Lin Chen joked, "Let's go for a walk."

Outside the camp, disciples from various sects were moving about everywhere, creating a lively scene.

Lin Chen asked curiously, "With so many people, are they all going to enter the Bloodbath?"

Kong Ling shook his head: "Of course not. The number of people sent by each sect varies according to their strength. The total number is 250 people on each side, making a total of 500 people. Many of the people you see here are uninvited, just to watch the battle projection in the Bloodbath Squad..."
