The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 494 I am a peak Grandmaster, yet I was knocked away?

After rounding a mountain peak, Zhao Zongming saw Lin Chen ahead.

Lin Chen was sitting on a rock, seemingly resting. Zhao Zongming stopped hiding and slowly revealed himself, walking towards Lin Chen.

Hearing footsteps, Lin Chen turned around and looked at Zhao Zongming, his expression seemingly surprised: "Mr. Zhao, what are you doing here?"

Zhao Zongming smiled and said bluntly, "Xi Shan and I have a good relationship."

Lin Chen suddenly realized: "So, you chased after me to help Xi Shan kill me?"

Zhao Zongming's gaze fell on Lin Chen's backpack: "You've had a good haul this time, five Five Spirit Pills. That's enough to create five Grandmasters. But it's said that Grandmasters themselves also find it quite effective. Maybe after using all five Five Spirit Pills, they'll directly enter the Innate Realm."

Lin Chen asked, "Do you know about the feud between Xi Shan, Guo Tang, and me?"

Zhao Zongming shook his head: "I don't know the specifics of the grudge. I only know that the sect leader ordered Xi Shan to kill you, and that's enough."

Lin Chen said "Oh," and then asked, "What is your position in the Five Dragons Sect?"

Zhao Zongming stared at Lin Chen, his eyes slightly puzzled: "Elder... you don't seem afraid?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Why is it that no one else noticed I left, but you were the only one who did?"

Zhao Zongming's expression changed: "What do you mean?"

Lin Chen smiled: "You're so smart, guess!"

Zhao Zongming's face darkened: "Were you deliberately lingering in front of me just now, deliberately leading me here?"

Lin Chen nodded and smiled, "What else can I do? Otherwise, if I leave secretly, who would know?"

Zhao Zongming immediately became nervous. He had also heard that Lin Chen had led four Grandmasters of the Innate Realm to kill the Wang family's patriarch. Could it be that Lin Chen had already made a phone call to ambush the Grandmasters of the Innate Realm, deliberately luring him here so that he could kill him?

Zhao Zongming quickly scanned his surroundings, but found nothing unusual and saw no one.

Zhao Zongming looked at Lin Chen suspiciously and sneered, "Trying to trick me? Why don't you call out a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm to take a look?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Since that's the case, why don't you make a move?"

Zhao Zongming felt a pang of unease; after all, a wrong judgment could very well cost him his life.

Lin Chen stood up, slung his backpack over his shoulder, and said, "If you're not going to do anything, I'm leaving!"

Looking at the smiling Lin Chen, Zhao Zongming couldn't bear to part with the five Five Spirit Pills that were about to be his. He steeled his heart and charged directly at Lin Chen, throwing a punch.

Zhao Zongming had already made up his mind that as soon as anyone appeared, he would flee immediately!

Moreover, with his strength, killing Lin Chen would be a matter of just one or two punches.

Kill them and leave!
Lin Chen moved with terrifying speed, and Zhao Zongming's punch missed its mark, shattering a tree trunk in the process.

Wow, so fast! Zhao Zongming was shocked. How could this kid be so fast?

Zhao Zongming reacted quickly, throwing another punch with his backhand.

This time, Lin Chen didn't dodge and met the punch head-on.

Zhao Zongming was secretly delighted; this kid lacked combat experience!

His movements are so fast that if I keep dodging, it might take some effort to kill him. But he wants to fight head-on. Isn't that like throwing an egg against a rock?

Watch me smash you to pieces with one punch!

Zhao Zongming added three more points of force to his punch.

"boom!"

Zhao Zongming felt a tremendous force coming from Lin Chen's fist, and then his body flew up, crashed into a tree trunk and broke it, before falling to the ground.

Zhao Zongming was stunned by the impact.

what happened?

He was knocked away?

How can this be?

I am a peak Grandmaster!
As soon as Zhao Zongming rolled over and leaped up, he found that Lin Chen was already close at hand, his fist like a raging dragon, with the force of Mount Tai pressing down, leaving no room for dodge.

Zhao Zongming opened his eyes wide, gritted his teeth, and threw a punch with all his might.

I do not believe!
How could I possibly be knocked away by Lin Chen?
"boom!"

Zhao Zongming's vision went black, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body flew up again, crashing to the ground far away.

Zhao Zongming felt his internal energy surging wildly, as if being cut by knives. Before he could even get up, he saw Lin Chen standing beside him, looking down at him with a mocking gaze.

Blood trickled from the corner of Zhao Zongming's mouth. He clutched his chest and looked at Lin Chen in despair.

"Didn't you just become a Grandmaster? How could you be so powerful?"

Lin Chen laughed: "Didn't you say before that I had disappeared? I went into seclusion to cultivate, so naturally my strength has improved."

Zhao Zongming suddenly realized: "Dragon Tiger Pills! The Wang family gave you three Dragon Tiger Pills, and you consumed all three, so your strength has greatly increased?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "That's right. How can you not understand something so simple and obvious? In the underground city, with so many people attacking you and so many ghost-faced bats, you still managed to escape alive. You're really tough. It's just a pity that you're not very smart. Otherwise, if you had stayed in the camp, how could I have killed you?"

As Zhao Zongming pondered the events in the underground city, his eyes suddenly widened: "Was it you who secretly lit the fire, attracted others to come, and even reminded them of our hiding place?"
