The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 822 Fortune favors the bold, let's take the risk!
The golden lion, like a golden lightning bolt, chased after Li Ping'an, and many powerful demonic beasts that were drinking water also took to the air and followed suit.

Qiao Wei watched Li Ping'an and the others disappear from sight and whispered, "I'm going, don't move."

"Ah."

Qiao Wei's figure soared up, transforming into a streak of light, heading straight for the spiritual spring in the center.

With the golden lion guarding the spirit spring gone, and many of the powerful monsters that drank the water gone, plus the monsters probably not expecting a second wave of invaders, Qiao Wei was able to reach the sky above the spirit spring without any trouble.

Qiao Wei slammed her palm onto the spiritual spring, causing the water to splash up. With a flick of her right hand, the splashing spring water seemed to be drawn in, transforming into a rushing torrent that flew toward a large jar she was holding in her left hand. In the blink of an eye, the jar was filled.

Qiao Wei put the stopper on the jar and placed it in her spatial ring. Just as she was about to start another attack, the monsters beside her realized what was happening and all rushed towards her at once.

Qiao Wei didn't dare to linger and turned to run away.

Perhaps it was the two consecutive surprise attacks that seriously provoked these monsters, because hundreds of monsters who were queuing up to drink water suddenly chased after Qiao Wei, forming a mighty and terrifying formation.

Lin Chen watched this scene from afar, and was also shocked. Although these demonic beasts were not as powerful as the golden lion before, their numbers were so great that a single claw from one person could turn them into mud.

The area around the pool, which had previously been teeming with monsters, suddenly became empty. Lin Chen's gaze swept over the pool, and he suddenly stopped.

In one corner of the pool, there grew a row of unidentified fruit trees. These trees were as tall as a person, and their entire bodies shone with a layer of emerald green light, as if every leaf was glowing. Each tree bore a bright red fruit, the size of a fist, and a vivid red color.

Lin Chen's eyes lit up. The golden lion had just been lying in front of this row of fruit trees. Could it be that it wasn't guarding the spiritual spring, but these fruits?

Lin Chen's heart began to pound faster.

Growing near the Yin-Yang Eye and the Spirit Spring, what level of spiritual fruit could it be that would be guarded by such a powerful demon?
Lin Chen glanced at the empty spirit spring, gritted his teeth, and decided to take a gamble.

Although the senior brother said not to be greedy, because once greed arises, danger will follow, if such a good thing is right in front of us, why not take a chance? What kind of cultivation is that?

Lin Chen threw out his flying sword, took off on the sword, and rushed rapidly toward the spiritual spring.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Chen soared through the sky and appeared in front of the row of fruit trees.

The bright red fruit was right in front of him, and its aroma was irresistible. Just smelling the fragrance made Lin Chen feel as if his mind had suddenly become clear.

Lin Chen's heart was pounding, but he didn't slow down at all. He flew swiftly and picked all the red berries from a row of fruit trees, tossing them into his spatial ring. Lin Chen flashed to the edge of the pool, took out the large jars he had prepared beforehand, and quickly filled several jars.

Just as Lin Chen was about to leave, a golden light suddenly appeared on the horizon, hurtling towards them at breakneck speed.

Golden Lion!

Lin Chen's heart skipped a beat, and the hairs on his back stood on end.

Even the eldest brother dared not engage in a prolonged battle with the golden lion. With his current strength, he would probably be reduced to ashes by a single bolt of golden lightning.

Although Lin Chen could shrink the distance to an inch, he could barely escape from Lu Daoren, who was in the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. However, when he encountered the Golden Lion, he would not have any chance of escape at all.

Almost instinctively, Lin Chen flashed to the edge of the pool and jumped directly into the central spring.

The pool water was a deep blue, and from the shore, one could not see underwater at all. Lin Chen had the Life and Death Seal cast by his senior brother on his body. As long as he was not seen, he had no life force and would not be detected.

Although this move was extremely dangerous in front of a powerful demon like the Golden Lion, tantamount to gambling with one's life, Lin Chen had no other choice but to take the gamble.

The bottom of the pool was not visible, but it was not as deep as I had imagined; it was only about fifty or sixty meters deep.

To avoid the golden lion, Lin Chen quickly sank to the bottom of the water and sank to the rocky ground.

At the same time, the golden lion landed by the spirit spring. Seeing that there was not a single demon beast by the spring, the golden lion subconsciously turned its head to look at the row of fruit trees.

The fruit trees are still there, but not a single bright red fruit is left.

Golden lightning crackled all over the golden lion's body, its golden eyes filled with rage, and it roared to the sky.

The earth trembled, and the dark clouds changed color.

The golden lion leaped and landed on a boulder by the pool, its divine sense sweeping across the entire valley like a filter...
