The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1535 Fear Originates from the Unknown

The man in the Celestial Realm turned around and saw that there was no one behind him. His heart skipped a beat, but he subconsciously thought that Yao Xuanji had tricked them into turning around so that they could take the opportunity to escape.

Where could she possibly run to in front of him?

He didn't panic.

However, the next second, boundless sword intent instantly enveloped him, every strand of sword intent carrying a bone-chilling coldness. In that instant, the hair on his back stood up.

He suddenly turned his head and instinctively stepped back.

What comes into view is the fierce aura of swords.

Following the sword energy was Lin Chen, his face solemn, his fingers pointed like a sword at himself.

He was terrified and felt as if his liver and gallbladder were about to burst.

He had never seen such fierce and sharp sword energy!

He subconsciously summoned a defensive magic weapon, but before it could even unleash its light, it twisted, cracked, and shattered under the overwhelming sword energy.

He flew backward!

His speed was fast, but it couldn't outpace the violent sword energy that swept across like a comet.

The sword energy illuminated his eyes, growing brighter and brighter, until it completely engulfed him.

His primordial spirit escaped, but still could not escape. It was instantly wiped away by the sword energy that swept across like a beam of light, just like a gust of wind blowing away all the sand and dust, leaving only empty air.

The sword energy swept across the sky like a galaxy of stars.

Even the celestial man couldn't withstand it that day, let alone the Golden Immortals behind him.

Lin Chen chose the perfect angle for his attack, and this strike essentially enveloped the entire group of people.

The sword energy surged past, and there was no one left in the air.

It's as if these people never came at all, and everything that happened before was just a dream...

Lin Chen swung his sword without even looking at the result. He turned around, took a step, and instantly appeared in front of the dumbfounded Lei Zhenxiu. With a wave of his hand, the whirlwind flag appeared and covered Lei Zhenxiu's body.

Don't resist!

Lei Zhenxiu's vision went dark. She was about to resist, but upon hearing Lin Chen's words, she subconsciously relaxed and accepted the situation. In an instant, Lei Zhenxiu's vision went black, and she found herself in a dark, enclosed space.

Only then did the sword energy sweep across the sky, and its terrifying consequences become apparent to everyone.

The man wielding the black sword who attacked Zhong Quan was stunned.

Zhong Quan was momentarily stunned.

At the summit, Wei Jiao's smile froze.

Lin Chen flicked his hand, and the whirlwind flag instantly unfurled, wrapping around Yao Xuanji once more. Yao Xuanji vanished, and the whirlwind flag fell into Lin Chen's hand, which he immediately placed in his robes.

"Senior, let's go!"

Dao patterns flashed beneath Lin Chen's feet, and with one step, he was already more than a hundred miles away. The Light-Chasing Boots on his feet greatly increased Lin Chen's speed, making it difficult even for immortals to catch up.

Zhong Quan was overjoyed and turned to leave.

The man with the black knife in front did not give chase, but instead looked at the earth torn apart by the sword energy, his expression uneasy.

A single sword aura destroyed an early-stage Celestial Immortal and several Golden Immortals.
Destroyed in form and spirit?

What kind of attack is this? How can it possess such ferocious power?

Although Lin Chen escaped, he dared not pursue him.

That would mean complete annihilation, both body and soul!

He cultivated to the mid-stage of the Celestial Immortal realm, spending so much time and enduring so much suffering. If he were to just disappear in an instant, who would he turn to for solace?
A sudden surge of intense fear rose in his heart. Fortunately, he was a mid-stage Celestial Immortal and had been assigned to hold off Zhong Quan, while his early-stage Celestial Immortal partner was sent to kill Yao Xuanji...

If I had been the one assigned to kill Yao Xuanji, I would be the one who is now utterly destroyed, body and soul.

He turned to look at Wei Jiao on the mountain, only to find that Wei Jiao was also deeply shocked, with an uncontrollable fear in her eyes.

This sword energy has completely exceeded everyone's comprehension!
In the Thunder Immortal Realm, it's impossible for anyone to unleash such a sharp sword aura, not even the Realm Lord!

But it did appear anyway.

Even though Lin Chen was on the run, they instinctively dared not give chase.

Fear comes from the unknown!
Wei Jiao dared to show herself so boldly and ambush Yao Xuanji because they had already found out the strength of the two guards beside Yao Xuanji: two Heavenly Immortals and several Golden Immortals. Yao Xuanji had nowhere to escape!
However, the newly promoted Pill King, who was considered the weakest and least noteworthy in everyone's eyes, used such a heaven-shattering sword aura to completely refresh everyone's understanding.

Who dares to chase?
What good would it do to catch up?

Should we face such a sword aura?

As Wei Jiao watched Zhong Quan's figure disappear into the horizon, the shock on her face gradually subsided, replaced by a cold glint in her eyes.

"Sir, do you want to chase me?"

Wei Jiao shook her head: "There's no need to chase them. Even if we catch up, we won't be able to stop them anymore."

The man with the black knife breathed a sigh of relief. He had never been so shocked before. Since entering the Celestial Immortal Realm, he had never felt such fear.

The other two surviving assassins also breathed a long sigh of relief, exchanged a glance, and saw the relief in each other's eyes.

Fortunately, to prevent Yao Xuanji from escaping, he stood on either side instead of in front of her; otherwise, he would be dead by now.

Wei Jiao's expression returned to calm, and she coldly ordered, "Pass down the order to continue monitoring their movements. Also, have someone investigate Lin Chen; I need all his information!"
