The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 723 You don't seem disappointed?

Feng Jixin's face was gloomy.

His mood was not just unpleasant, it was downright depressed.

As Lin Chen said, they came with overwhelming advantages and were determined to take Baitao City in one fell swoop, but they were dealt a heavy blow.

The city was not captured, and two Golden Core cultivators died and two Nascent Soul cultivators were injured. Zhao Yutian even lost an arm. In contrast, the people of Baitao City didn't even suffer a single loss.

Not only that, a bunch of scum in the city actually sent people downstairs to hurl insults at them.

On the first day of the insults, everyone was filled with righteous indignation, and even the force of their attack on the city increased. They all vowed to make those people pay a bloody price and let them know the consequences of insulting them.

The day after the insults began, everyone looked somewhat embarrassed.

On the third day of the insults, some people couldn't take it anymore.

Even the thickest skin can't withstand such ridicule; it's a brutal slap in the face, and you can't even come up with an effective rebuttal.

Some people were provoked and rushed down, but as soon as they got close, the spirit stone cannon went off. If Feng Jixin hadn't come to their rescue quickly, they would probably have been blasted into pieces.

After this incident, the cultivators of the Holy Fire Sect fell silent, their morale plummeted, and even their bombardment became somewhat weak and listless.

After all, they all knew they only had ten days.

Ten days later, Qiao Wei will wake up. Once she wakes up, it will be almost impossible for her to conquer Baitao City again.

Judging from this situation, the other side is not as scarce in spirit stones as previously thought. All we have done is burn some spirit stones in Baitao City, and it is of no use other than that.

If that’s the case, why bother?

Feng Jixin had no choice.

This is the city's defense, a powerful defense strong enough to withstand a beast tide, which he alone cannot break through.

If I had known, I wouldn't have come so arrogantly. Instead, I should have sneaked into the city first and then launched my attack. Once I was inside the city, who could stop me?

Feng Jixin regretted it too late.

Four days have passed, and the spiritual energy shield remains unmoved. It seems the other side has an inexhaustible supply of spiritual stones, and the insults from below continue unabated. Is there any way to break through the spiritual energy shield?

After pondering for a long time, Feng Jixin finally made up his mind and left alone. Before leaving, he ordered, "I'm going to find a magic weapon to break the spirit barrier. You all keep your distance and keep bombarding!"

Feng Jixin left. On the fifth day, Su Mubai suddenly arrived.

Su Mubai sneaked into the city in the middle of the night. After all, she was the pride of the Southern Yue Hengshan Cave Heaven, and everyone knew her.

Lin Chen was sitting cross-legged on a high platform when he received Qing Ling's message, and he was stunned.

"Su Mubai is here? How many people are with him?"

"She's the only one."

Lin Chen frowned. How would the Su family react to her being alone?

This place is now considered dangerous, and Su Mubai actually sneaked into the city. Isn't she afraid of getting into trouble?
Lin Chen descended from the platform and met Su Mubai at the City Lord's Mansion.

"Miss Su..."

Su Mubai's face showed obvious signs of fatigue, but it did not diminish her ethereal beauty.

Upon seeing Lin Chen, Su Mubai's face lit up with a bright smile: "You're really bold! A Nascent Soul cultivator leading the team, and you actually chose to take on the challenge head-on!"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "We're just relying on the city's defensive spiritual light array. We didn't plan to fight it head-on. If we really can't hold on, we'll just run away. Where are you going to come from?"

Su Mubai replied, "You sent a message to Guijian City, and the Su family sent a message to me, so I rushed over... My father said that it is inconvenient for the Su family to directly send someone to intervene in this matter, and the other party is at the Nascent Soul stage. Apart from the Su family patriarch, even if the others from the Su family come, they may not be able to withstand Feng Jixin."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen immediately understood the subtext.

Although you saved Su Mubai and brought back Su Qinghua's remains, it's clearly not enough to get the Su family patriarch to intervene. And even if others came, they wouldn't be able to stop Feng Jixin, so no one was sent.

Su Mubai paused, looking at Lin Chen's calm expression, which showed no disappointment, and asked slightly strangely, "You don't seem disappointed?"

Lin Chen smiled and asked, "How many spirit stones did you bring?"

Su Mubai was taken aback for a moment, then pouted slightly: "How did you guess?"

Lin Chen chuckled and said, "My letter clearly stated that I was borrowing people or spirit stones. No one came, but you did, so you must have brought spirit stones with you. Otherwise, why would you wander over here alone and watch me get killed?"

Su Mubai laughed and said, "Alright, you're right. You also said in your letter that you weren't planning to fight them to the death. After all, the strength is completely unequal. We can only rely on spirit stones to hold out until Peak Master Qiao wakes up. The only thing we're short of is spirit stones, so I brought spirit stones with me. Twenty million spirit stones. It came suddenly, and I was afraid I would be too late, so I left in a hurry. I can't gather any more in a short time."

Lin Chen's eyes lit up slightly, and his mood suddenly relaxed: "That's enough, that's enough, you've really come to my rescue..."
