The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2655 Testing, Choice

Lin Chen was quite happy to have the Phoenix Fire Spirit recovered.

The Phoenix Fire Spirit was something Lin Chen had worked very hard to obtain. Quasi-Saint Luo Hongdan went to great lengths for it, which shows its value.

It hasn't yet displayed its terrifying, world-destroying power because it's still in its growth stage.

When Lin Chen took out the Phoenix Fire Spirit, he and Zhen Liuxue had agreed beforehand that it was just a loan and that it needed to be returned. Who would have thought that such a powerful Immortal Slaying Formation would be broken so easily?

It's not that the Immortal Slaughtering Formation isn't powerful, but rather that the Heaven-Devouring Altar of the Dao King and Pang Yuanzhen is simply too terrifying.

Lin Chen had initially thought the Phoenix Fire Spirit was lost, but he never expected it to return. This was truly a pleasant surprise.

After carefully storing the Phoenix Fire Spirit, the group set off for the far west.

In Snowwind City, Yue Chengtian finally found his mother. To Lin Chen's slight surprise, Yue Chengtian's mother was no ordinary person; she was none other than the city lord of Snowwind City.

Snowwind City belongs to Ice and Snow City, and the city lord of Snowwind City is one of the Immortal Lords of the Myriad Immortals Palace. His strength is naturally that of a peak-grade Grand Luo Immortal.

Lin Chen and Shang Wenyan did not enter Xuefeng City. After all, Xuefeng City was a force under the Wanxian Palace. If they were exposed, wouldn't that be like lambs to the slaughter?

The two left Yue Chengtian behind, arranged a meeting time, and headed straight for the Ice and Snow City.

Outside the Ice and Snow City, Lin Chen's clone swaggered to the mountain gate and shouted, "Special Envoy of the Myriad Immortals Palace, please come out and meet City Lord Qiu. I have a secret order to convey!"

Lin Chen tossed out a Wanxian Palace token, and the guards at the mountain gate immediately reported it.

Soon, Qiu Wushuang's graceful figure appeared. Looking at the masked man at the door, a hint of doubt appeared in her eyes.

"I am Qiu Wushuang, a special envoy. Please come in."

Lin Chen calmly said, "Lord Qiu, please come with me. I have a secret order to convey."

Lin Chen left after saying that.

Qiu Wushuang frowned and instructed the people around her, "You stay here, I'll be right back."

Deputy City Lord Yuan Qiuhong transmitted her voice: "Sect Master, we sealed off the city before, and such a big incident occurred. Has the higher-ups sent someone to question us?"

Qiu Wushuang's mood was also somewhat heavy: "What is a blessing cannot be avoided, and what is a curse cannot be avoided. I will go and see. Even if something happens, it is my business and has nothing to do with Ice and Snow City. If anything happens to me, you will act as the city lord and take good care of Ice and Snow City."

Yuan Qiuhong looked worried, and hesitated to speak.

Qiu Wushuang stepped forward, and Yuan Qiuhong's voice echoed in her mind: "If the Palace Master really blames you and wants to hold you accountable, then you can run away, City Lord. You can go anywhere in the world. Don't worry about Ice and Snow City; I will take good care of it." Qiu Wushuang paused for a moment, but did not turn back, and continued forward.

Lin Chen led Qiu Wushuang away from Ice and Snow City, landing on a hilltop. He turned around to face Qiu Wushuang.

Qiu Wushuang's expression was serious: "Special Envoy, whose orders have you come on?"

Lin Chen changed his voice, making it serious and authoritative: "Lord Qiu, do you know your crime?"

Qiu Wushuang's expression changed slightly: "What crime have I committed?"

Lin Chen said in a deep voice, "You conspired with Senior Sister Zhen Liuxue to create the Black Moon Massacre, causing the deaths of Jiang Wanchun, the Hall Master of the Ten Thousand Immortals Hall, the City Lord of Demon Dragon City, the City Lord of Wind and Thunder City, as well as many other city lords and key members. And you're still pretending to be unaware of this?"

Qiu Wushuang's heart skipped a beat. She had known about this news for a while, but the Wanxian Palace had not sent anyone. She had been feeling uneasy for a long time.

The Palace Master of the Myriad Immortals Palace personally issued the Myriad Immortals Order, issuing a warrant for the arrest of his senior sister, Zhen Liuxue, which made Qiu Wushuang even more worried.

Worried about Zhen Liuxue's safety, worried about the Wanxian Palace's purge of Bingxue City, and hating her own incompetence and weakness, she had been living in agony for a long time, and even lost weight.

Qiu Wushuang gritted her teeth and said, "I know nothing about this matter. I haven't seen my senior sister since my master passed away."

Lin Chen asked coldly, "You really haven't seen it before?"

Qiu Wushuang replied decisively, "I've never seen it before. Whom are you representing to ask me this question, the Palace Master, or someone else?"

Lin Chen replied coldly, "The Palace Master sent me to ask you, do you want your senior sister to live, or do you want her to die?"

Qiu Wu's eyes flickered slightly: "You've captured her?"

Lin Chen stared at Qiu Wushuang with icy eyes: "With the Palace Master personally taking action and the assistance of Quasi-Saint Pang Yuanzhen from the Lingxiao Sect, how could she possibly escape? Although the Thief Saint saved her once when she was on the verge of death, she still couldn't get away. In the end, she still ended up in our hands."

When Qiu Wushuang heard that Zhen Liuxue had almost died and ended up in the hands of the Wanxian Palace, her expression changed drastically. She stared straight at Lin Chen, her voice trembling slightly: "Where is she now?"

Lin Chen said calmly, "We have already brought her here. She is not far away. The Palace Master is asking you to make a choice."

Qiu Wushuang pressed her lips tightly together, her face pale: "Choose what?"

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, and his voice deepened, as if carrying a deep mockery: "Either you turn around and leave, and we'll execute her on the spot, or you cripple your cultivation, and we'll spare her life for the sake of your sisterly bond!"
