The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2136 Are there living people in the tomb?

As Lin Chen stepped through the door, the scenery before him instantly changed.

As expected, this passage also contained spatial folding techniques, and Lin Chen found himself in a huge plaza filled with an astonishing number of adventurers.

so many people?

Lin Chen was taken aback. He quickly glanced around and discovered that there were quite a few powerful sects.

Three of the five major sects have arrived: Milong Mountain, Tianyi Sect, and Xuankong Temple. There are also quite a few powerful first-tier sects, including the Three Saints Sect!
Lin Chen immediately recognized the leader of the Three Saints Sect, Fu Zongjing, who was at the Profound Realm. Behind him stood three other Great Luo Venerables and more than ten Heavenly Horse Knights, exuding an extraordinary aura.

The appearance of Lin Chen and his group attracted everyone's attention, but they only glanced at them and then ignored them.

Hong Guiling was taken aback by the scene before her and whispered, "Weren't we the first ones to come in?"

Song Jun replied in a low voice, "We were trapped in the stone chamber for a day, so they must have all arrived during that time."

Xiao Shubo said in a low voice, "These sects don't seem to have suffered any major damage. Did they not encounter any danger? Or do they have a way to break through the passage?"

Lu Xinyan whispered, "The monk Kongxuan of the Hanging Temple is proficient in spatial arts. Perhaps all these people here are related to him."

Song Jun smiled bitterly, "I originally thought we could get there early, but we ended up falling behind and taking a detour. Now, whatever opportunities may come our way, they are probably out of our reach."

Lin Chen didn't say anything, his eyes subconsciously turning to Lu Yao.

Lu Yao narrowed his eyes slightly, scanning the surrounding crowd with a calm gaze, showing no sign of tension.

Lu Yao's perception was astonishing. As soon as Lin Chen looked at him, he sensed it and instantly turned around to look at him. Their eyes met in mid-air.

Lu Yao smiled slightly and turned her head away as if nothing had happened. But in that one glance, the confusion and helplessness after losing her memory were gone from Lu Yao's eyes. Instead, there was only depth and expectation.

Is this... a sign that they're no longer pretending?

Lin Chen suddenly had a feeling that Lu Yao knew about his suspicions, and he could sense that Lu Yao also seemed to know his secrets.

There's no need for the two hidden individuals to keep secrets from each other.

Anyway, we've already come this far.

Is Lu Yao's ultimate goal the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum?

Although there were at least several hundred people in the huge space, everyone was quiet, sitting cross-legged as if waiting for something.

The sociable Song Jun went out to investigate and returned with a shocked expression.

"There are living people in the tomb!" Living people?

There are hundreds of people in front of us. If they're not alive, they must be dead.

Uh, no...

Lin Chen's pupils suddenly contracted, and he subconsciously lowered his voice: "You mean, the owner of this tomb is still alive, or perhaps a tomb keeper?"

"Yes."

Song Jun looked shocked, glanced around quickly, and then whispered, "It is said that the first people to come in originally planned to search this place thoroughly, but suddenly someone told them not to move around, otherwise they would be killed."

"The speaker was a man with a very authoritative voice, but no one could tell where the voice was coming from. The man told everyone to wait."

"Everyone suspected it was Qin Huang, so even the Five Immortal Sects dared not act rashly, for fear of causing trouble."

Hong Guiling whispered, "This tomb has existed for countless millennia. Even this world has been destroyed. How could anyone still be alive? They must have lived for countless years. Could it be the work of adventurers, impersonating the Qin Emperor to scare everyone so they can take advantage of the situation to loot valuable items?"

Xiao Shubo nodded: "It's not impossible, but there are so many powerful people here. Whether it's true or not, it's not our turn to step forward. What we need to do now is protect ourselves!"

"Yes!"

The group quietly sat down in a secluded spot, and people were continuously teleported into this huge space.

Lin Chen was secretly observing when he suddenly heard footsteps from the side. He turned his head and saw Jiang Yuelin from the Sea Shark Sect walking briskly towards him.

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and looked around, but did not see Wen Gongping, the leader of the Sea Shark Sect.

Jiang Yuelin walked up to Xiao Shubo and said coldly, "Weren't you the first to come in? Why are you only arriving now?"

Jiang Yuelin spoke in an interrogative tone, and Xiao Shubo, suppressing his murderous intent, coldly replied, "It has nothing to do with you!"

Jiang Yuelin raised an eyebrow: "Hey, you're pretty cocky, kid. Long time no see, you've got some nerve!"

Xiao Shubo said coldly, "What, do you still want to make a move now? Aren't you afraid of attracting other trouble?"

Jiang Yuelin was naturally a little scared. No matter how powerful or arrogant he thought he was, he was still below the level of a Great Luo Immortal!
There are plenty of people here who could crush him with one hand, so why would he dare to cause trouble here?

I drank too much during the New Year holiday, I'll update tomorrow when I wake up.
