The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2828 You're not helping me, you're helping yourself!

After realizing what was happening, Lin Chen quickly descended, then casually cast the Life and Death Seal on himself to conceal his life force before hiding himself in the towering dense forest.

Hanging high in the air, isn't that a target?
The man's friend was trying to escape from the sky when he was attacked by the Sky Leap Beast and became its food.

After hiding in the dense forest, Lin Chen began to carefully observe his surroundings.

The surrounding terrain, mountains, and dense forests seemed no different from what he had just seen, but he hadn't seen any mist or anything unusual in mid-air.

With such a vast fog, it was impossible for me not to see it.

Lin Chen thought for a moment, then turned around and followed the direction he came from. He took a step and his figure disappeared instantly.

The next second, Lin Chen reappeared, and looking at the mist in front of him, he gasped.

Damn it!
He was flying normally, not very fast, when he suddenly stepped into this misty world.

He turned around and took a step, a step that covered at least hundreds of miles, yet he was still in the misty world!

This misty world is quite something!

If the world of mist and the real world are connected, then his step across the void, covering hundreds of miles, could not have been without leaving. However, that is the case, which can only mean that the area Lin Chen is in now is no longer in the same space as before.

The man said he fled close to the ground, losing his way. Then, something drastic happened: a crack appeared in the misty world, and he managed to escape by following the crack.

Although not entirely certain, Lin Chen guessed that this misty world overlapped with the real world. On the surface, they looked the same, but in reality, this area was no longer the real world. Once you stepped into it, unless the misty world collapsed or you found a normal way to enter and exit, it would be difficult to escape the misty world.

Things have gotten complicated.

Lin Chen had originally planned to run away if he couldn't win, but now he realized that things weren't so simple, and it seemed he had to find out the truth.

Lin Chen wasn't sure if the spatial bomb Gong Jianying had given him could shatter the Misty World, but he wasn't in a hurry to test it.

Lin Chen thought for a moment and then summoned the Void Beast Tia.

As soon as Tia came out, sensing the eeriness around her, she looked at Lin Chen with displeasure: "Where have you been this time? Did you run into danger?"

Lin Chen explained the situation: "If we find the Leaping Beast and Senior Zhen's injuries heal, we'll have one more Quasi-Saint, making it safer to go to the Crimson Immortal Realm. Otherwise, we're so weak, what if someone takes a liking to you?"

Lin Chen started making empty promises and linked this matter to Tia's safety. Otherwise, how could Tia be willing to work hard?
Is it the same to act for others and to act for yourself?

Tia was indeed fooled, looking at Lin Chen in surprise: "You actually have a Quasi-Saint by your side?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I know a lot of Quasi-Saints, such as Taixu Zhenren, Baiyu Mojun, and Mutianjun. They are all top big shots in the Immortal Realm. Senior Zhen may not be as good as them, but as long as he recovers from his injuries, even if he encounters a powerful Quasi-Saint, he can run away if he can't beat him."

"After you go to the War God's Mansion and inquire about your Void Clan, you can be sure everything is going smoothly and you won't need anyone's help. After all, you've been living away from home, and your mother isn't a Starry Sky Beast..."

Lin Chen didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning was clear.

You're not a pure Star Demon. It's one thing for you to look for your father, but you want to find the ancestral land of the Star Demon race and claim your lineage. They might not necessarily recognize you.

You might need help then too. Who can help you?

Who else could it be but me?

So if you step in now, you might not be helping me, but you in the future!

Lin Chen's words clearly touched Tia's soul. Although it was powerful, as a hybrid Starry Sky Beast, it was really unsure whether the Starry Sky Beast race would accept it.

"Besides, we've already come all this way and are stuck here. If you help, you're helping yourself. We can't spend our whole lives here, and besides, the people here won't allow anyone who knows their secrets to live."

Tia shook her head, her gaze becoming more serious: "Alright, no need to say anything more. I will help you. You also need to remember what you said today. If I need help in the future, you cannot stand idly by."

Lin Chen readily agreed, "Of course! A person should be loyal to their friends. You helped me, so as long as I have the ability, I will definitely help you back!"

Tia replied, "I'll follow you. If it's time to act, I will."

At this point, Lin Chen felt much more at ease.

Surely a quasi-saint couldn't possibly appear in this godforsaken, desolate place.

With Tia by my side, I can now safely investigate further.

Lin Chen also cast the Life and Death Technique on Tia to conceal its life force, and then reached forward.

Although he had just stepped out, he hadn't escaped this misty space. However, Lin Chen didn't think this area was very large, since it overlapped with the real terrain.

Lin Chen recalled the scene he had seen from the air earlier. In front of this mountain range, a river flowed down, and below it was a valley with relatively flat and spacious terrain.

If someone wanted to do something here, this huge valley is relatively flat and secluded, making it an excellent location.

Lin Chen, leading Tia, moved towards the valley like a hunter navigating the jungle.

After walking for a while, a fluctuation of spiritual energy suddenly came from the air.

Lin Chen's strength was far superior to that man's, and his perception was many times stronger. So even though the fluctuations were largely obscured by the mist, Lin Chen still sensed them immediately.

Lin Chen quickly hid in the hollow of a large rock with Tia. Just as they were hiding, a huge figure appeared out of thin mist as if it had appeared out of nowhere, instantly appearing above the forest.

Lin Chen, possessing considerable strength, was not afraid. So he secretly observed, and with just one glance, joy appeared in his eyes.

Isn't that the Leaping Beast?
I'm so lucky, I found it as soon as I came in!

Thinking about it, I'm pretty lucky. The Sky Leaping Beast is powerful, comparable to a Great Luo Immortal. Most of those who can venture here are ordinary cultivators, mostly below the level of immortals. With their strength, encountering the Sky Leaping Beast would be a certain death.

That man was truly lucky. Not only did he happen to have a magical artifact that could conceal his life force, but he also encountered a change in the Misty World. Otherwise, he would have died in the Misty World sooner or later.

Perhaps he wasn't the only one to encounter the Sky Leap Beast, but everyone else who entered this area ultimately met their demise, most becoming food for the Sky Leap Beast.

Lin Chen's gaze fell on the single horn on the Leaping Beast's head, and he hesitated, wondering whether he should make a move now.
