The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1753 Disrespecting the Celestial Palace? Then let's fight!
More than a dozen disciples of the Five Poisons Hall were stunned.

"At your own risk?"

"Is this kid threatening us?"

"Haha, he's threatening more than ten of us all by himself. Does he think he's some kind of celestial being?"

The white-haired old man who made the move sneered, his eyes filled with mockery: "So what if we don't hand it over? What are you going to do about it?"

Lin Chen took out the token of the Celestial Palace's special envoy and infused it into his spiritual body.

Are you sure you want to do this?

Since he had the status of a special envoy of the Celestial Palace, he might as well make use of it. If he could solve the problem without fighting, Lin Chen was willing to take a break.

"Special Envoy from the Celestial Palace!"

"He's from the Celestial Palace!"

The white-haired old man's eyes widened in shock, and his expression immediately became hesitant.

A special envoy from the Celestial Palace—this is not like any other sect or faction; they are not to be trifled with!
A clump of Fire Dragon Grass is something you can give up if you want. It's not worth making an enemy of the Celestial Palace envoy for a clump of Fire Dragon Grass, but what about after you give it to them?

Then the Seven-Colored Jade Rhinoceros appeared. Should we also back down because of the other party's status as a special envoy of the Celestial Palace?
The white-haired old man cupped his hands and said, "Special Envoy Lin, although you are a special envoy of the Immortal Palace, you still have to be reasonable. Everyone has paid so much for these precious medicinal herbs to come here, and each of us has gained something through our own efforts. We can't just withdraw because of your words."

Lin Chen put away the token and sneered, "Unwilling? So you still insist on doing this, is that it?"

The Five Poisons Hall was originally an arrogant and unruly sect, with its disciples being arrogant and domineering. In addition, it was located in a remote place. Although they were somewhat wary of the Immortal Palace, the other party was just a person with a token, and they were unwilling to back down.

The white-haired old man hesitated for a moment before finally making a decision: "Since you are a special envoy from the Celestial Palace, we will naturally give you face. How about this, we will give you the Fire Night Dragon Grass, but if the Seven-Colored Jade Rhinoceros appears, we will each rely on our own methods. After all, we also have reasons why we have to obtain the Seven-Colored Jade Rhinoceros Horn."

Lin Chen put away the Immortal Palace Token and said in a deep voice, "Since that's the case, there's nothing more to say. Let's all rely on our own methods!"

Although he came here for the Fire Night Dragon Grass, now that he has discovered the Seven-Colored Jade Rhinoceros Horn, how could he possibly give up the Seven-Colored Jade Rhinoceros Horn?
Besides, he and Chu Yue joined forces to seize the Seven-Colored Jade Rhinoceros Horn and even helped him lure away the Demon Eye Serpent Spider. If he were to reach a private agreement with the other party, wouldn't that be a betrayal of Chu Yue?

Since even the identity of a special envoy from the Celestial Palace couldn't suppress these unruly individuals, let's have a go.

Seeing this, the white-haired old man no longer showed weakness and sneered, "Your strength is mediocre. You think you can deal with us all by yourself? That's wishful thinking!"

Lin Chen gave a cold, wicked smile: "How could it be just me?"

As he spoke, Lin Chen cast a spell and shouted, "Rise!"

With Lin Chen's shout, the array flags of the Five Elements Immortal-Slaying Array rose up in a flash, instantly growing to a thousand meters in size. The array shimmered, and in an instant, five array flags circled around, connecting the array. White mist descended, enveloping the entire array. The white-haired old man's expression changed. When did this guy set up this array?
How could I not have noticed?
He remained calm and said coldly, "So what if it's an array? Your strength is mediocre, how much power can an array have? Everyone, follow me and charge in the same direction to break through the array!"

Lin Chen made a hand seal, and icy energy descended instantly, freezing everything in its path.

The dozen or so Five Poisons Hall disciples trapped in the formation were thrown into chaos, no longer caring about launching an attack.

The white-haired old man roared, "Open the barrier, cast a fire spell, and dispel the cold!"

Golden light shone, and many barriers instantly opened, protecting everyone inside. At the same time, someone cast a fire spell, and flames rose, trying their best to keep the temperature within the barriers.

Just as everyone was in chaos, Lin Chen activated the formation, opening an exit, and Chu Yue's figure flashed out.

The Demon-Eyed Serpent Spider, following closely behind Chu Yue, pounced, only to be met with a closed door—the exit had been instantly shut.

It crashed into the array's barrier, but the barrier remained completely still.

She let out a few angry screams, then turned and charged towards the group of Five Poisons Hall disciples.

Chu Yue landed beside Lin Chen, his eyes wide with surprise, and asked, "What kind of formation is this?"

"Five Elements Immortal-Slaying Formation".

Chu Yue raised an eyebrow: "Can you slay celestial beings?"

Lin Chen nodded: "At full strength, it can kill early-stage Celestial Immortals and trap mid-stage Celestial Immortals. However, my strength is low, so the power of the formation will be reduced. But fortunately, none of them are Celestial Immortals, and besides..."

Lin Chen's lips curled into a cold smile: "Don't we have another helper?"

Chu Yue immediately understood and laughed happily: "The Demon Eye Serpent Spider, that guy is not easy to deal with, they're in for a rough time!"

Lin Chen asked, "How strong is that Demon Eye Serpent Spider?"

"Very strong!"

Chu Yue replied, "My sword can't break through its limb defenses unless I use a powerful move, but I'm afraid of being trapped in an illusion, so I just tested it out, and then I basically just kept running away, not daring to stop at all."

Chu Yue's smile was full of schadenfreude: "I've heard that the illusion of the Demon Eye Serpent Spider is extremely terrifying. Today, I'll get to witness its power firsthand..."
