The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2885 If you have to blame someone, blame yourself for being too greedy and for having bad luck!

Zhu Yuqiu didn't notice the unusual tone in her father's words and nodded without hesitation: "Of course I'm willing. I'm willing to do anything to help Father recover!"

The Daoist Duan Tian said with satisfaction, "Good, she is truly my good daughter."

Zhu Yuqiu asked, "Father, what do I need to do?"

The Daoist Duan Tian said gently, "I need your body to nourish my soul..."

Zhu Yuqiu's eyes widened in surprise: "My body?"

The Daoist Duan Tian explained, “My body is completely devoid of life, like rotten wood that cannot be brought back to life. It is utterly useless. Since our bloodlines are connected, your body can nourish my primordial spirit. Only you can do this; no one else can.”

Zhu Yuqiu blinked; "Nourish the primordial spirit, and then what?"

The Taoist Master Duan Tian smiled kindly: "As long as my primordial spirit is restored, I can find a suitable body to possess and be reborn."

Zhu Yuqiu asked happily, "Okay, what do I need to do?"

The Taoist Master Duan Tian laughed and said, "Good daughter, does this mean you agree?"

Zhu Yuqiu answered without hesitation: "I agree. You are my father. I will do anything to save you! I thought you died at the hands of the Thousand Demon Lord. To avenge you, I even became the disciple of the Palace Master of the Spring God Palace and begged him to avenge you..."

Duan Tian Dao Ren gently comforted her: "Good daughter, you have suffered, but I am not dead yet, so you don't have to work so hard. I will take you away from the Spring God Palace, and I will personally avenge the Thousand Demon Lord!"

Zhu Yuqiu said aggrievedly, "Palace Master Jiang Wanli colluded with the demon race and betrayed the immortal realm. He is wanted by the Book Sea Pavilion, and the entire Spring God Palace has been punished. Everyone has been arrested. If you hadn't brought people here, I'm afraid none of us, the Palace Master's personal disciples, would have survived..."

"Colluding with the demons?"

The Daoist of Broken Heaven was greatly surprised: "How could the Demon Race appear in the Bitter Sea Immortal Realm?"

The primordial spirit of the Broken Heaven Daoist had been hiding inside the Sun and Moon Divine Dragon Lamp, which Lin Chen had then placed into his spatial ring. He was completely unaware of what was happening outside.

Lin Chen was wary of Duan Tian Dao Ren, so his relationship with Lin Chen was limited to their first meeting. In his mind, Lin Chen was just a junior with some strength, but not much, which was the main reason he chose Lin Chen.

He secretly called out to Lin Chen, but dared not let the Thief Saint Sun Yixiao discover it, for fear that Sun Yixiao would kill him directly. Lin Chen's strength was obviously much weaker, making him easier to control. Zhu Yuqiu also only had a vague understanding of this matter. She only overheard a bit when she was captured after the Spring God Palace was surrounded, and learned that the Palace Master had colluded with the Demon Clan, leading to the Spring God Palace suffering a great calamity.

"I don't know either. I just heard that the demon race has been wiped out, the palace master has fled and is wanted, and the Spring God Palace has been completely destroyed. Fortunately, my father arrived in time and had someone take me out of the Book Sea Pavilion. Otherwise, I'm afraid that even if I didn't die, I would have become a slave and been sold off, with no hope of ever getting ahead."

The Daoist of Broken Heaven exclaimed in surprise, "This kid is the one who brought you out of the Book Sea Pavilion? Does he still have that kind of influence?"

Zhu Yuqiu replied with a puzzled look, "Isn't he the person you were looking for? Don't you know that?"

Duan Tian Dao Ren replied, "I met him at my hiding place. He was with a Quasi-Saint at the time, and I was afraid of being discovered by that Quasi-Saint. Then I saw that this kid was honest and kind, and seemed easy to fool, so I chose him and asked him to bring me to you. In fact, I don't know anything about him."

Zhu Yuqiu asked, "Why did he help you? What did you give him in return?"

The Daoist of Broken Heaven replied, "I promised that as long as he brings me to you, I will give him the Sun and Moon Divine Dragon Lamp and all my collection..."

Zhu Yuqiu's eyes widened: "The Sun and Moon Divine Dragon Lamp is your natal magic weapon, and you're giving it to him too?"

Duan Tian Dao Ren explained, "He was quite wary of me. I was afraid he would ignore me, so I told the Quasi-Saint beside him about it. That's why I made a solemn promise and swore not to harm him. That's why he agreed."

Zhu Yuqiu glanced at the Sun and Moon Divine Dragon Lamp in front of her, her eyes flashing before turning ruthless: "Father, do you know what his strength is?"

Duan Tian Dao Ren seemed to have anticipated Zhu Yuqiu's question and answered without hesitation, "Great Luo Immortal, daughter, what is your current strength?"

"Lower-grade Grand Luo Immortal".

Duan Tian Dao Ren laughed and said, "That's enough. A Great Luo Primordial Immortal is completely crushing a Great Luo Supreme Immortal. My dear daughter, you don't want the Sun and Moon Divine Dragon Lamp to fall into his hands, do you?"

Zhu Yuqiu instantly understood her father's meaning and smiled sweetly: "How can a primordial spiritual treasure fall into the hands of others? He was the one Father found, so I don't need to owe him any favors."

"A Quasi-Saint's natal magic weapon, an innate spiritual treasure. Even with his strength, he dared to greedily covet it. If he dies, he can only blame himself for being too greedy and for his bad luck!"
