The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3394 I'll give you this snake, okay?

Sun Yixiao looked at Lin Chen, who remained calm, with a look of horror on his face, and asked again to confirm, "Are you talking about the Celestial Race, the rulers of the universe?"

"Who else could it be but them?"

While responding to Sun Yixiao, Lin Chen sized up the woman opposite him.

The men and women of the Celestial Clan all seemed to be very good-looking. The two men he had encountered before were handsome and beautiful, but the woman in front of him was clearly much more beautiful than the previous one. Coupled with her cold gaze and aloof temperament, she had the feel of a cold-blooded assassin.

The beautiful woman scrutinized Lin Chen with sharp eyes and said coldly, "How do you know my background?"

Lin Chen smiled slightly: "Because I've encountered this before, and we even had a fight."

The beautiful woman's gaze suddenly sharpened, and her aura surged dramatically.

"They lost?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "It's a draw, I guess. They were determined to capture me and sell me back, but I naturally didn't want to, so I ran away. Beautiful lady, you wouldn't have the same idea, would you?"

The beautiful woman said coldly, "Since you already know my background, don't you think your question is redundant?"

"Not at all. What if there are peace-loving people among your Celestial Race's trial participants?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "After all, we have no grudges against each other, right?"

The beautiful woman sneered, "Capturing just one of you will significantly increase your trial score. Surrender now, and you'll suffer less."

Lin Chen sighed, "I know that your Celestial Race are the rulers of the universe, and I know that your Celestials are very powerful. You could kill me with a single finger. But you trial participants aren't Celestials, are you? How come you keep talking about making people surrender? Do you even have that kind of strength?"

Lin Chen paused, then pointed to Sun Yixiao beside him: "Look carefully, our strength and realm are similar. Right now there are two of us and you are alone, so we have the advantage in numbers."

The beautiful woman glanced at Sun Yixiao and sneered, "His strength is so poor that he can be completely ignored."

Sun Yixiao's face flushed red. He gritted his teeth, seemingly wanting to say something to prove himself, but thinking about the situation just now, he was too ashamed to speak.

Lin Chen was shocked when he saw Sun Yixiao's reaction. Although Sun Yixiao was the Thief Saint, his direct combat ability was indeed not very good. However, he was still a Quasi-Saint. Now he was being ridiculed as a weakling who could be ignored. Just how strong was this woman to say such a thing?

He turned his head and asked, "How did your fight go?"

Sun Yixiao replied awkwardly, "We only exchanged blows two or three times. I was no match for her at all and couldn't stop her at all, so I turned around and ran away. I had used my trump card to get ahead of her for a while, but who knew she would catch up so quickly."

Sun Yixiao looked at Lin Chen with eager eyes: "It's a good thing I met you, otherwise, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to run for long before she caught me... You just said they were taking us back to sell, what do you mean by that?"

Lin Chen calmly replied, "The Celestial Race, the rulers of the universe, control all races. In their eyes, all races are inferior beings. Even our strongest are at most worthy of being their slaves, to be driven by them, and to serve them."

"Oh, right, this star field is the training ground for their Celestial Race. These trainees come in to compete for the Great Dao opportunity, while we are the prey chosen to make things a little more difficult for them. They will hunt us while competing for the Great Dao opportunity, and capture us to sell."

Sun Yixiao was dumbfounded: "How do you know so much?" Lin Chen replied: "I met two kind people who took the initiative to introduce me to them. Otherwise, I would have been kept in the dark."

Sun Yixiao's eyes widened in terror: "So we came here to compete with the Celestial Clan for the Great Dao opportunity, and at the same time, to resist their hunting?"

"Yes."

Lin Chen stared at the beautiful woman opposite him, his tone calm: "Their trial period is five years. Regardless of whether they obtain the Great Dao opportunity or not, as long as they survive for five years, they can return to our world through the ancient formation. This is our way out."

The beautiful woman raised her slender right hand, and a black ring shaped like a snake coiled around her finger suddenly came to life. The snake detached from her finger and rose into the starry sky.

As the serpent formed from the ring flew through the air, its body rapidly expanded as if inflated, growing to hundreds of miles long in the blink of an eye. Its enormous body coiled around the starry sky, its ferocious serpent head looking down at the two of them.

Sun Yixiao looked at the ferocious-looking black giant snake above him, his expression turning quite ugly. He swallowed hard: "She didn't even use this method when she dealt with me..."

Lin Chen remained calm. From the black snake that the beautiful woman displayed, he could roughly guess that her identity and strength were probably much greater than those of the previous man and woman.

Lin Chen looked up at the giant snake, which was clearly powerful, and said, "Senior, you deal with the snake, and I'll deal with her people, how about that?"

Sun Yixiao's face showed a slight bitterness, but he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!"

Although the snake looked difficult to deal with, it was still just a snake, while the woman looked beautiful, but she was clearly more difficult to deal with.

Seeing Sun Yixiao's nervous expression, Lin Chen comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'll help you."

Looking at Lin Chen's confident expression, Sun Yixiao felt a mix of emotions.

When they first met, Lin Chen had only just entered the Great Luo realm, and he even begged Sun Yixiao to help him save Zhen Liuxue. In just a few years, Lin Chen has grown to such a level.

Sun Yixiao, the "Master Thief," might only surpass Lin Chen in his thieving skills; in terms of true combat prowess, he's far inferior.

"You focus on dealing with her, don't get distracted. Leave this snake to me. I refuse to believe I can't even beat a snake!"

Upon hearing Sun Yixiao's words, the beautiful woman opposite him slightly curled up the corners of her mouth, as if she had heard a funny joke.

Lin Chen took out the Nebula Sword and summoned the Sun and Moon Divine Dragon Lamp, calmly asking, "I might be stronger than you think. Are you sure we can't sit down and have a calm talk?"

The beautiful woman extended her palm, and a flash of golden light appeared above it, revealing a fiery red phoenix hairpin.

She pointed a finger at the phoenix hairpin, and the hairpin emitted golden light. A loud phoenix cry rang out in the air, and with the sound, a fiery red phoenix image rose above the hairpin, its magnificent wings unfolding and countless flames swirling around it, transforming into a beautiful yet dangerous fire phoenix.

Sun Yixiao said nervously, "She used this on me before, and I couldn't block it even once..."

Before he finished speaking, the phoenix hairpin flew towards Lin Chen. The phoenix spread its wings, blotting out the starry sky, and swooped down on Lin Chen with a fiery red glow.
