The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2874 Dying like this is too easy for you!

Lin Chen retreated rapidly, and at the same time saw the mysterious person who suddenly appeared in the air.

The familiar black robe, the familiar hood!
Lin Chen's pupils contracted and his heart pounded. This guy was actually the demon quasi-saint he had encountered twice before!

When I met Thousand Demon Lord before, I made up an excuse that Wen Mengsheng asked me to pass on a message to Thousand Demon Lord to be careful of the demon race. I made this up, but I never expected it to become a reality!
Did I become a jinx?
Does it work instantly?
The man in black robes took the Demon God Banner and did not linger. He glanced back at Lin Chen's direction and then disappeared from the spot like a phantom.

Lin Chen's heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition welled up inside him.

The next second, the man in black robes appeared directly beside Lin Chen, his voice like an icy blade piercing Lin Chen's ears.

"You brat who ruined my plans, die!"

Lin Chen turned his head and saw the black-robed man pointing a finger at him. Like a mountain collapsing, an invisible and terrifying pressure instantly enveloped Lin Chen. Before Lin Chen could even react, his body exploded and turned into a cloud of blood mist.

The man in black robes killed Lin Chen instantly and sneered, "Dying so cleanly and neatly, you got off easy!"

The Thousand Demon Lord's gaze followed the man in black robes, and he was stunned to see the man in black robes kill Lin Chen with a single finger.

Lin Chen had clearly left, so why is he back?

Just died in such an unclear manner?

Thinking of how Lin Chen had warned him to be careful of the demons, but now he had died at the hands of the demons, a murderous aura surged in the heart of the Thousand Demon Lord.

"Jiang Wanli, you colluded with the demons, a crime deserving of death. Aren't you afraid your Spring God Palace will be wiped out?"

Jiang Wanli laughed heartily: "As long as I can get what I want, I don't care if the Spring Goddess Palace is gone or not!"

The Thousand Demon Lord's eyes were bloodshot: "The demon race is the mortal enemy of my immortal realm. Colluding with the demon race is a capital offense. You will have no place to stand in the entire immortal realm. What could possibly drive you to such madness?"

Jiang Wanli laughed and said, "Fellow Daoist Yu, how many years have we been stuck in the Quasi-Saint realm? Don't you want to try to reach the Saint realm?"

The realm of saints?
The Thousand Demon Lord was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "If the demon race really had a way to make people enter the Saint Realm, wouldn't they have countless Saints? Why would they send a Quasi-Saint as the vanguard? Wouldn't it be better to just send a Saint directly? You actually believe such a thing? How stupid can you be?"

Jiang Wanli chuckled: "You're smart, but I'm not stupid either. If it weren't really possible, why would I have agreed?"

The Thousand Demon Lord frowned, somewhat puzzled. Jiang Wanli was no fool; he would not be fooled by a mere empty promise. Could it be that the demon race truly had a way to help people reach the Saint Realm?
In the brief exchange, the man in black robes had returned to the front of the Thousand Demon Lord. With a wave of his hand, a small magical artifact flew back into his palm. He put it into his sleeve, and then a strong wind rose from the ground, instantly blowing away all the fragrance in the air.

The chaotic and bloodthirsty army of monsters suddenly came to their senses, stopped fighting, and fled into the distance.

The man in black robes said coldly, "Anyone who tries to escape will have their true soul destroyed!"

Upon hearing the words of the man in black robes, all the demonic beasts immediately stopped in their tracks and watched from a distance.

When the great demons saw the Demon God Banner fall into the hands of the man in black robes, they knew that their lives were now in his hands, so they naturally dared not escape.

Even though they knew the man in black robes might not be able to use the Demon God Banner now, as long as it was in his hands, he would eventually break the seals and take control of it. At that point, the escaped demon would be destroyed. They wanted to run, but they dared not.

The Thousand Demon Lord watched this scene with gritted teeth, yet there was nothing he could do.

It was obvious that the other party had a plan to seize his Demon God Banner, all for the sake of his powerful demons. After all, having the Demon God Banner and controlling these powerful demons would be tantamount to controlling an army!
"Even if you take away my Demon God Banner, you still cannot use it to command my army of demon beasts!"

The man in black robes said coldly, "You don't need to worry about that. Now that I'm here, I naturally have a way to break the restrictions. Although it will take a little time, as long as the Demon God Banner is in my hands, they will have to listen to me, unless they don't want to live."

The Thousand Demon Lord's face turned ashen; he knew the other party was telling the truth.

Unless he can reclaim the Demon God Banner, these demonic beasts will obey the black-robed man and even follow his orders to surround and kill him.

The man in black sneered, "Surround him. If he gets away, I'll kill you all!"

All the demonic beasts sprang into action, instantly spreading out in all directions and surrounding the area like an iron barrel.

The Thousand Demon Lord coldly said, "You want to kill me?"

The man in black robes nodded and said, "Although I also have a way to break the seal on the Demon God Banner, the fastest way is naturally for you to break it yourself. So capturing you is the best solution. Moreover, if you run away, the news will leak out and cause trouble in the end. So you can't leave today."

"With thousands of powerful demons and two quasi-saints besieging you after you lost the Demon God Banner, I think there should be no suspense."

The Thousand Demon Lord gritted his teeth: "Come on, let's see!"

The man in black robes brandished a black bone spike and sneered, "Don't blame me for not giving you a chance. If you submit to me now and become a member of my demon race, as long as we establish a teleportation array and welcome my demon army, then you will be a meritorious person, and I can give you the opportunity to touch the gate of the Saint Realm. Of course, whether you can succeed or not depends on yourself."

"If you refuse to submit now, then I will have no choice but to kill you and annihilate your soul. After all, only the dead can truly keep secrets!"

"I bother!"

The Thousand Demon Lord spat out a mouthful of saliva: "I'm not that good-for-nothing Jiang Wanli who only knows how to waste his time on women's bellies. My bones aren't as soft as his, and I won't kneel down. If I die today, it's my fate. If I don't die, I'll fight you to the death!"

The man in black robes sneered, "Stubborn fool! Since I gave you a chance and you didn't cherish it, then you can die! Attack!"

As the man in black robes gave the order, Jiang Wanli, who was poised to attack, once again activated the bronze cauldron and launched an attack on the Thousand Demon Lord.

"Fellow Daoist Yu, you promised my disciple you would stand up for him. Today, let's settle this matter once and for all!"

The Thousand Demon Lord cursed, "You scum who slept with your disciple! I'll drag you down with me even if I die today!"

Amidst shouts and curses, the black bone spikes, in conjunction with the bronze cauldron, launched an attack on the Thousand Demon Lord.

Although the Thousand Demon Lord was a quasi-saint, he lacked a natal magic weapon, which greatly reduced his combat power. The black-robed man was even more terrifying. His bone spikes seemed to be made from the bones of some ferocious beast. As they flew, the entire space trembled slightly, as if some ferocious beast was about to awaken and break through the air at any moment.
