The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2643 Don't run, don't run, walk!
Lin Chen hovered in mid-air, pointing forward with one hand.

Crimson blood energy rose from Lin Chen's body, then swirled along his arm and surged toward his fingertips.

Amidst the swirling red aura, a finger appeared first, facing off against Lin Chen's finger.

Blood swirled around the fingertips, which grew at a visible rate.

The hands, arms, and then the torso; the blood in the torso spread in several directions, extending toward the head, the two legs, and the other arm.

In the blink of an eye, a brand new Lin Chen appeared, but he was completely naked. Fortunately, he was surrounded by a hazy golden light, making his figure appear indistinct and unclear.

The clone Lin Chen's aura was much weaker; he had no sword bone, no extraordinary seed, and was just an ordinary immortal.

Sun Yixiao watched the scene unfold with a lewd smile on his face.

The golden light that Lin Chen's clone was trying to block was naturally not enough to stop Sun Yixiao, who was at the Quasi-Saint level, from observing him. He was completely exposed.

"Every time you use this clone, don't you have to find a place to hide? Otherwise, wouldn't you be completely naked?"

To minimize unnecessary risks, Bai Yunfei, Shang Wenyan, and Yue Chengtian all entered the Qiqiao Palace.

Sun Yixiao did not demand custody of the Seven Wonders Palace despite his superior strength. He even refused Lin Chen's offer to entrust the Seven Wonders Palace to him, indirectly indicating that he would not let anything happen to Lin Chen.

His own grand-disciple is still in the Seven Wonders Hall. If something happens to Lin Chen, wouldn't Bai Yunfei suffer along with him?
So even if it weren't for Lin Chen, he would still protect Lin Chen for Bai Yunfei's sake.

Since Shang Wenyan wasn't around, Lin Chen didn't need to worry about his clones putting on clothes. He could just casually cover himself with golden light, since the purpose of these clones was simply to go and die anyway.

“I studied this place for a long time. The space here moves and changes randomly and irregularly, but it doesn’t change all the time. It changes once a day. So when the sun has completely set and it’s completely dark, we can’t move around anymore. We should rest where we are and wait until it’s completely light before we start moving again.”

"it is good!"

Lin Chen agreed, then muttered to himself, "It feels about the same here, day and night..."

The Thief Saint laughed and said, "What can we do? This is the Western Prison. The people of the Western Prison have lived in this place for generations. If anyone should complain, it should be them." Lin Chen sighed, "After staying in the Western Prison for so long, I have gradually come to understand them. If I were living here, I would also feel envious and jealous of those foreign cultivators who live in the light."

The Thief Saint replied, "To cross the domain, one must possess strength above the level of an immortal. Otherwise, one will be torn to pieces by the domain gate. In other words, to leave the Western Prison, one must reach the level of an immortal. This single rule limits the vast majority of people in the Western Prison to living in the Western Prison for their entire lives, and they can never leave."

"Even if they reach the level of immortals, people from Xiyu may face exclusion and difficulty in getting ahead if they go to other places. Therefore, many cultivators who have reached the level of immortals and left Xiyu will still return to Xiyu."

Lin Chen nodded silently: "This is their hometown. No matter how harsh the environment is, it is still their hometown, where they share the same roots and clan."

"Yes!"

Sun Yixiao sighed, "Although the path of immortality is a lonely one, it is not easy for a person from the Western Prison to rise in the Eastern Empire. It is even more difficult than staying in the Western Prison."

Lin Chen understood this situation. No matter how monstrous your talent or how powerful your background was in the Western Prison, once you left your homeland for the Eastern Empire, the Northern Sea, or the Southern Wilderness, could you possibly compete with them?
Forget defying the heavens, you could lose your life if you're not careful.

Lin Chen composed himself and asked, "Which direction should we go?"

Sun Yixiao took out an antique compass, pointed a finger at it, and the compass needle immediately started moving, spinning a few times before indicating a direction.

Sun Yixiao explained, "This area not only has turbulent currents but also chaotic paths, making it easy to get lost. Moreover, due to the spatial turbulence, ordinary directional artifacts or spells are completely useless. This compass is called the Mind-Stabilizing Instrument, which uses an extremely special spatial positioning method to continuously guide us."

"As long as we don't get caught in the turbulence and are banished to another dimension, it can guide us toward the central area until we find our goal."

"In the turbulent space, everything is chaotic. Once you enter, everything you see may be fake, upside down, and chaotic. Without such a thing, you will be like a headless fly, bumping around aimlessly, and you will only end up dead."

Lin Chen, the clone, glanced at the pointer: "This way, right? Okay, I'm going."

Seeing Lin Chen's clone about to run away, Sun Yixiao quickly shouted, "Don't run! Whatever you do, don't use your movement technique! Otherwise, you'll instantly teleport to some turbulent area and disappear. Just walk, at a normal walking speed. We'll follow behind you..."
