The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 636 You won't be able to leave without leaving something behind.
"clang!"

"Clang clang clang!"

A series of rapid impacts rang out as Liu Qiang's flying sword soared up and down, trying to break through Lin Chen's Three Provinces Sword from various angles.

The Three Provinces Swordsmanship is as swift as a dragon, each point of cold light striking the flying sword precisely. With each strike, the flying sword is like a venomous snake struck at its vital point, instantly losing its strength and only able to flip back to gather momentum for a second attack.

Lin Chen's last battle against Zhou Wuyuan was a simple and brutal slash with his flying sword, which directly shattered the opponent's flying sword. Today, facing Liu Qiang, he had an absolute advantage in strength, so Lin Chen was not in a hurry. In a casual counterattack, he discovered a new insight.

Flying swords do have an advantage in attack, not only because of their long attack range and flexible control, but also because they can attack from multiple angles and are not affected by the position of their master. However, the drawbacks are also obvious. The amount of spiritual energy that a flying sword can carry is limited. Although it is more flexible and faster, it is far less powerful than a sword held in the hand.

Lin Chen's sword could accurately strike the flying sword every time, and he could accurately block it every time, preventing the flying sword from breaking through the longsword in his hand. This was partly due to the difference in strength, but also because the flying sword was not fast enough and its strength was even greater.

The power of the flying sword lies in one word.

fast!
So fast you can't defend against it, it pierces through your body, and that's how you win!

Liu Qiang's flying sword was fast, but only fast; it didn't break through Lin Chen's defensive speed. So no matter how long they fought, as long as Lin Chen didn't get distracted, his flying sword couldn't break through the three feet around his body.

Lin Chen felt that while attacking with flying swords was certainly cool, this method of wielding a long sword for close-range defense was equally reassuring.

I wonder if there are any sword techniques related to this?

If I had the opportunity, I'd like to learn how to do it myself.

Winning against others is good, but not losing and not dying is the most important thing.

After fighting for a while, Lin Chen's sword became increasingly smooth and graceful. He wasted no more time and struck the flying sword with his sword. In the instant the flying sword was suspended in the air, Lin Chen swung his longsword horizontally and violently swept it across.

"clang!"

Liu Qiang's flying sword shot out instantly, piercing the rock wall beside him with a thud. Liu Qiang's face turned pale instantly, and a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

Liu Qiang reached out and tried to guide the flying sword a few times, but found that it was unlikely to break free from the rock wall. He then awkwardly jumped onto the rock wall, smashed it with a punch, and retrieved the flying sword.

Seeing this, Lin Chen felt even more that while the flying sword was indeed powerful, it seemed to have quite a few drawbacks. If he could control multiple flying swords, it might be even more formidable.

Controlling multiple flying swords is something most cultivators probably can't do.

Lin Chen had just embarked on the path of cultivation, and during the battle, he had quite a few of his own ideas.

Lin Chen's gaze shifted to Fatty Xiang Qiu's face: "He seems to be out of commission. What about you? Do you want to come up and give it a try?"

Xiang Qiu's eyes showed fear, and he put on a fake smile: "I'm about the same as him, so I don't need to. Junior brother, we're just looking for an excuse to spar with you, so don't take it to heart."

Have you backed down?

Lin Chen smiled slightly: "That's right. I'm new here and don't know anything about this place. I'm penniless. Since you two senior brothers are so hospitable, I think you should give me, a newcomer, some help and show your appreciation, right?"

Liu Qiang and Xiang Qiu both suddenly widened their eyes, glanced at each other subconsciously, and saw the shock in each other's eyes.

Is this guy trying to blackmail the two of them?
How dare a newcomer like him?
Liu Qiang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and sneered, "Kid, don't think you're all that just because you beat us. We're with Senior Brother Gu Li. If we want to exchange caves with you, it's on Senior Brother Gu Li's behalf. As long as Senior Brother Gu Li makes a move, you're completely finished."

Lin Chen casually asked, "What's your senior brother Gu Li's strength? Golden Core or Nascent Soul?"

Liu Qiang's face stiffened, and he immediately cursed, "You think Golden Core and Nascent Soul are so easy to achieve? If you really had that kind of strength, why would you still be living on this mountain? Wouldn't you have joined one of the four major sects by now?"

Lin Chen immediately understood. It seemed that the cultivators living in this Flying Waterfall Mountain were not very powerful; the powerful ones had all been recruited by the four major sects.

Lin Chen said calmly, "If you don't show me any appreciation, it means you don't welcome me as a newcomer. You even bullied me, so it's normal for me to fight back, beat you up, break a few bones, and recuperate for a few months, right?"

Liu Qiang and Xiang Qiu's expressions changed again.

This kid is actually blatantly threatening the two of us!
"You dare! This is Flying Waterfall Peak, not outside. If you dare to hit us, Senior Brother Gu will deal with you all later!"

Lin Chen, carrying the Three Provinces Sword, walked towards the two and said calmly, "We'll talk about tomorrow's matters tomorrow. If you don't leave something behind today, you won't be able to leave!"
