The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 534 Certificate of Surrender

Zhou Yitian was in despair.

He had just unleashed his desperate move, the Triple Wave, using continuous bombardment to gather immense momentum and launch an even more powerful attack.

Each of the three punches was more powerful than the last.

Lin Chen was pushed back, each time retreating further and further away.

He spat out three mouthfuls of blood, each one more than the last.

He didn't expect to kill Lin Chen with his three punches; he just hoped to injure him, force him to retreat, and give himself time to escape into Ding City!

However, Lin Chen had already blocked his path, extinguishing his last hope of survival.

Zhou Yitian turned and charged sideways unwillingly, but Lin Chen gave him no further chances.

Lin Chen moved like a phantom, directly bridging the distance between the two, catching up with Zhou Yitian at an angle, and throwing a punch.

"Crack!"

Zhou Yitian's right hand, which he hastily used to fight back, was broken by Lin Chen's punch, and he crashed into a snowdrift, looking utterly disheveled.

On Monday, Zhou Yitian awkwardly reached out to brush the mud and snow off his head. He tried to stand up, but then hesitated, gave up, and sat down on the muddy pit with a thud.

"We all underestimated you."

Lin Chen stood in front of Zhou Yitian and smiled slightly: "Yes, if Guo Tang had killed me personally after knowing my identity, none of this would have happened. He gave me time to grow, and I will have to thank him properly later."

Zhou Yitian stared at Lin Chen: "I know you will kill me, so before I die, can I ask you a few questions?"

Lin Chen leaned against a nearby rock and said, "Ask."

Zhou Yitian asked, "Didn't you just advance to Grandmaster not long ago? Why are you improving so quickly?"

Lin Chen answered frankly, "One Divine Essence Pill and a few Dragon-Tiger Pills allowed me to advance from the Entry Stage to the Bottleneck Stage. This time, I had a fortuitous encounter with immortals during my journey into the mountains, and after consuming a gift from a master, I directly entered the Innate Stage. I then cultivated for two more months. For a cultivation genius like me, shouldn't my strength increase dramatically in just two months?" Zhou Yitian looked at Lin Chen in shock: "An encounter with immortals? You met those immortals from the unknown lands of Kunlun Mountain?"

Lin Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know if he can be considered a god. He has never shown any great strength. But judging from his demeanor and tone of voice, even if he is not an immortal, he is not far from being one. As for whether he is from the unknown place of Kunlun Mountain, I have no idea."

Lin Chen nodded, then brought up the old topic again: "How do my strength compare to Guo Tang's?"

Zhou Yitian asked expectantly, "If I tell you, will you let me go?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Letting you go back so we can gang up on me again next time?"

Zhou Yitian's eyes darkened, and he said unwillingly, "As long as you let me go, I can agree to anything you want. I can be your subordinate and fight for you. I am, after all, a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm, and my combat power is not low. Wouldn't it be a waste for you to kill me?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "What you said makes sense. It is indeed a pity to kill a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm just like that. But how can I trust you? I have no other choice. Why don't you think of a way? As long as you can convince me, I can spare your life."

Zhou Yitian's eyes lit up with joy, and his mind raced. How could he gain Lin Chen's trust?

“Although I am a member of the Five Dragons Sect, as you know, our Five Dragons Sect is dominated by Guo Tang. We actually have more awe for him than anything else. We have no way to resist him, which is why he became the sect leader. So it is entirely possible and reasonable for me to help you deal with Guo Tang.”

Lin Chen smiled and said, "It makes sense, but it's not a good enough reason."

Zhou Yitian thought for a moment, his face flushed, and said, "I will kneel down before you, swear allegiance, and become your subordinate, no, your dog. Whoever you tell me to bite, I will bite. You can record a video. If I have any disloyal thoughts, you can release the video and ruin my reputation, making me die a horrible death!"

Lin Chen glanced at Zhou Yitian: "What if you're the kind of person who's incredibly shameless? Then these things won't hurt you at all, which isn't enough."

Zhou Yitian felt his brain was about to give out. In order to survive, Zhou Yitian racked his brains, but he couldn't think of a reason to make Lin Chen trust him and let him go.

Zhou Yitian gritted his teeth and suddenly said, "Former enemies, when one side wants to pledge allegiance to the other, usually use a tactic called a pledge of loyalty. I can do that too!"

Lin Chen looked at Zhou Yitian with interest: "You don't mean to say that I should let you go back to kill the people from the Five Dragons Sect, do you? If you do, you'll just escape, and I won't be able to go to the Five Dragons Sect to catch you."

To save his life, Zhou Yitian disregarded his dignity and beliefs. He hurriedly explained, "No, what I meant was that I would help you lure the experts from the Five Dragons Sect here, and then I would personally kill them for you as a token of my allegiance to you!"
