The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2861 Could this guy be a demon?
This has piqued everyone's curiosity.

"Yes, what kind of identity would require such secrecy, always keeping one's head covered by a hood? Lin Chen, didn't you say you captured a man in black robes before and took his identity, but he would rather self-destruct than reveal his true identity..."

Dai Yunshen frowned: "Even if they are cultivators from other immortal realms, if they want to develop in the Bitter Sea Immortal Realm, even if they are seizing territory, this is a perfectly legitimate thing to do. It is normal for the forces in the immortal realm to fight for territory, with large forces occupying large territories and small forces occupying small places. Why should he be afraid?"

Gong Jianying casually replied, "Yeah, it's strange. They're not demons, and every cultivator is their enemy, so they dare not reveal their identities..."

Before Gong Jianying could finish speaking, she suddenly saw Su Hao and Dai Yunshen turn their heads and stare directly at her.

Gong Jianying stammered, "Senior, why are you looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong?"

Su Hao ignored Gong Jianying and turned to look at Dai Yunshen, his expression extremely solemn: "We've all fought against them. Have you noticed anything strange? When they're channeling their energy, there's a faint red glow, and the aura they emit is also very strange..."

Dai Yunshen's expression was equally solemn: "I hadn't noticed until you mentioned it, but now that I think about it, it's true. I initially thought he was using fire-based supernatural powers, but I didn't see him use any fire-based supernatural powers later. That red light exuded an aura of violence, brutality, and destruction... Old Su, could this black-robed man really be a demon?"

Lin Chen's eyes widened: "Isn't the Immortal-Demon Passage in the Crimson Immortal Realm? If the demons really broke into the Immortal Realm, the War God's Palace of the Crimson Immortal Realm couldn't possibly notify everyone, could it? Just letting the demons break in without doing anything about it? That's impossible, isn't it?"

Su Hao clenched his fists and tapped them lightly, his mind racing: "Under normal circumstances, demons do need to pass through the Immortal-Demon Realm to come to the Immortal Realm, but there are some special cases. After all, crossing void planes is something that True Person Taixu often does, isn't it?"

"If we add some special conditions, this is not impossible. If they really are demons, then they may not have come from the Crimson Immortal Realm or the Immortal-Demon Realm. Instead, they may have arrived in the Bitter Sea Immortal Realm directly through some kind of spatial teleportation. It could be a fixed-point delivery or a random teleportation."

"These people have arrived in the Bitter Sea Immortal Realm. Their mission is to set up a super-long-range teleportation array to bring their people here..."

Dai Yunshen's voice was solemn: "If that's the case, then things will get really serious. Once they establish an outpost here, powerful demons from the rear will keep being teleported over."

"The Celestial Realm's defenses are still focused on the Crimson Celestial Domain to prevent the invasion of the Demon Race, but their army has quietly appeared in the Bitter Sea Celestial Domain. Once they have accumulated enough strength, they will strike with lightning speed, directly occupy the Bitter Sea Celestial Domain, seal the domain gate, and turn the Bitter Sea Celestial Domain into the territory of the Demon Realm."

"With the Bitter Sea Immortal Realm as a bridgehead for the demon race's attack on the Immortal Realm, their army will keep pouring in. By the time the Immortal Realm reacts and mobilizes its army, it will probably be too late. From then on, the demon race will occupy the Immortal Realm, constantly expanding its territory. War will engulf the entire Immortal Realm, and all battlefields will turn into scorched earth. Wherever the demon race goes, all humans will become their slaves!"

Everyone looked at each other, startled by their own conclusion.

Gong Jianying muttered, "Could it really be the demons? We've run into something so bizarre?"

Su Hao took a deep breath, his gaze falling on Lin Chen's face, and smiled, "If it's not, then this is a minor matter. But if it really is the Demon Clan, then it's a top-level event for the Bitter Sea Immortal Realm and even the entire Immortal Realm."

"And you, Lin Chen, although you stumbled upon it by accident, you destroyed the altar they had built, destroyed the core of the array they carried, and blocked their teleportation plan. You have made a great contribution to the Bitter Sea Immortal Realm and even the entire Immortal Realm!"

Lin Chen blinked, his face showing a strange expression.

isn't it?
Could it really be a demon? If it is a demon, then I have truly performed a great service. My unintentional act has saved countless lives, and even the entire Bitter Sea Immortal Realm!
Once the teleportation array is completed, it will inevitably bring top-tier demon experts. At that point, it will be much more difficult to wipe them out.

Lin Chen rubbed his chin: "I hope Senior Brother Wen can bring us some good news!"

Su Hao asked worriedly, "That man in black robes is very powerful. Fellow Daoist Wen, are you strong enough to suppress him?"

Gong Jianying confidently replied, "My senior brother has a calm personality, doesn't like to compete, and loves reading, but he is very strong and will definitely win. However, whether he can catch his opponent is another matter."

Everyone expressed their understanding; after all, that was a quasi-saint!

If a quasi-saint could be easily killed, it would be an insult to the word "saint".

To kill a Quasi-Saint, perhaps only a Saint-level being like an Immortal Emperor could be confident. As for battles between Quasi-Saints, everyone has their own special skills, so killing the other is basically impossible.

Previously, Zhen Liuxue was not yet a complete Quasi-Saint. She faced Si Daowang and his two Quasi-Saints at the Quasi-Saint level. If she hadn't been so determined to kill Si Daowang and even risked her life to escape, even if the two Quasi-Saints hadn't been able to injure Zhen Liuxue so badly.

"What do we do now?"

"A battle between quasi-saints isn't so easy to end. If we keep chasing them, it could easily take ten days to half a month. This place is the closest to the Xuan Kong Sect, so why don't we go to the Xuan Kong Sect and wait there?"

Gong Jianying nodded: "I think it's fine. Anyway, I came here to celebrate Sect Master Wanyan's birthday. If this man in black robes is a demon, then we'll see. If not, then we still have to do what we're supposed to do..."

Su Hao laughed and said, "Then let's go to Xuan Kong Sect and use their formation to send some messages. I'm afraid both our sects are in trouble now."

Dai Yunshen nodded: "Okay!"

Lin Chen turned to look at Zhen Liuxue, but before he could speak, Zhen Liuxue smiled sweetly and said, "I don't like socializing, and besides, my injuries haven't fully healed yet. I'd better go back and continue my meditation!"

Lin Chen nodded without pressuring her, and took Zhen Liuxue back into the Seven Wonders Palace. Then, he and the other three headed towards the Xuan Kong Gate.

"Lin Chen, I saw you use an ancient tower to block the black-robed man's attack before. What kind of magic weapon was that? Its defensive power is so strong?"

The exquisite pagoda's performance was truly astonishing, so it was only natural that it caught the attention of two master craftsmen, Su Hao and Dai Yunshen. Lin Chen smiled slightly: "I obtained it by chance, and later discovered that its defensive capabilities were excellent, so I refined it into my natal magic weapon. This pagoda's attack power isn't that great, but its defense is very strong, and it has saved my life many times..."
