The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 671 Why are you treating him this way?
The sapling suddenly froze.

She suddenly tried to burrow into the soil below, but as soon as her roots moved, her body was locked in place by a powerful aura, making it impossible for her to burrow any further.

The sapling stiffly turned her tender, small body, looked at Qiao Wei with a faint smile on her face, and asked desperately, "Didn't you leave?"

Qiao Wei calmly replied, "Your nascent soul escaped and burrowed underground. Do you think I didn't know?"

The sapling was utterly desperate.

"You say you're at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage? You're lying! With your strength, you're way beyond the Nascent Soul stage; you're more like a Deity Transformation cultivator!"

Qiao Wei naturally wouldn't explain anything to the sapling. With a swift grab, the sapling flew up without any resistance and then hovered in Qiao Wei's palm.

The sapling closed its eyes in despair, awaiting its death.

She underestimated Qiao Wei's strength. She originally thought she could compete with Qiao Wei, but she was cleanly and decisively defeated and completely crushed.

In desperation, her nascent soul left her body and quickly fled underground.

Since the nascent soul has no physical form, it can easily burrow into the ground. She escaped far away in one breath. However, the nascent soul in the nascent soul stage has not yet evolved into a primordial spirit and is very weak, just like a newborn baby that cannot survive for long after being separated from its body.

Fortunately, she was originally a tree spirit. While fleeing underground, she found a sapling that was compatible with her. She then possessed it and became one with it before emerging from the soil. However, Qiao Wei was lying in wait for her.

Previously, she was in the Nascent Soul stage, making it easy for her to escape underground. Now, she has possessed a body, which is in the form of a sapling. Her strength has also plummeted to almost nothing. She no longer has the ability to escape and can only wait to die.

With just a squeeze from Qiao Wei, she would explode and die.

She waited for a long time, but nothing happened. She opened her eyes and looked at Qiao Wei: "Why don't you do anything?"

Qiao Wei smiled and said, "Tree spirits are rare in this world. It would be a pity to kill them. Anyway, you're already useless, so let's keep them to play with."

The sapling gritted its teeth, but there was nothing it could do.

Qiao Wei grabbed her casually, sealed her up, put her in a bag, hung it around her waist, and then leaped into the air.

……

"Where did Peak Master Qiao go?"

Murong Feng opened his eyes, and some color returned to his pale face. The battle just now had almost exhausted him.

Su Mubai sat cross-legged not far away, glanced at Lin Chen who was still healing with his eyes closed, and replied, "I don't know, let's wait and see."

That glance, falling on Murong Feng's face, ignited another surge of jealousy within him. Something's wrong!
You definitely have a problem!
Murong Feng sighed, "I never expected to encounter such a powerful tree demon. We were almost wiped out."

Su Mubai nodded: "Thanks to Lin Chen, who relied on the power of the Water and Fire Mirror to severely injure the tree demon and delay it for so long. Otherwise, we wouldn't even have had a chance to release a distress talisman, let alone escape."

Murong Feng asked in confusion, "The Water-Fire Mirror is the magic weapon of the Water-Fire True Man. It is said to have been lost long ago. How did it end up in Lin Chen's hands? I've never heard of him before."

Su Mubai explained, "He came from the mortal world and hasn't been here long. This Water-Fire Mirror must have been brought in by him from outside."

"Did it come in from outside?"

Murong Feng was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "Junior Sister Su, how do you know so much?"

Su Mubai replied calmly, "Didn't I meet him before? We chatted for a while, and that's how I found out."

Previously, Su Mubai was worried about causing trouble for Lin Chen, so he was very careful with his words. But now that he sees that Lin Chen is not only at the Golden Core stage, but also possesses such a powerful Water-Fire Mirror, and has Qiao Wei protecting him, he no longer needs to deliberately hide anything.

Qiao Wei even taught Lin Chen how to use the Three-Foot Sword Curtain. Even if their relationship wasn't exactly master and disciple, it was definitely close. With her protecting him, Murong Feng wouldn't dare to do anything to Lin Chen openly.

Although the deputy sect leader of the Flying Crane Sect was powerful, he was still no match for the enraged Qiao Wei.

Qiao Wei is an anomaly in Hengshan Cave Heaven of Nanyue. Her strength is only at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage, but if they really fight, even a Nascent Soul stage cultivator might not be able to withstand her!
All four sect leaders are at the Nascent Soul stage, and they have all fought with Qiao Wei, but none of them dare to say that they can definitely defeat her.

Murong Feng gave an "oh," but finally couldn't help asking, "Why were you so attentive to him out of all those people?"

Su Mubai calmly replied, "Without him, we wouldn't be able to chat here right now."

Murong Feng was taken aback by Su Mubai's words and had no reply.

He really wanted to say that he had done his best and had made contributions, but when he thought about how he was defeated by the tree demon in one blow, while Lin Chen was able to severely injure the tree demon and repeatedly defeat its attacks, he couldn't bring himself to say it.

"That's right, without Lin Chen's Water and Fire Mirror, we would probably have been drained dry by now."

Murong Feng's words did not mean that Lin Chen was particularly powerful, but rather that the Water-Fire Mirror was powerful.

If I had the Water-Fire Mirror, I could do the same!

Su Mubai remained silent, glancing at Lin Chen with admiration in his eyes.

The Water-Fire Mirror is indeed very powerful, but in this battle, Lin Chen demonstrated far more than just the power of the Water-Fire Mirror.
