The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 852 Giant Claw in the Lava Pool

"That's wonderful! With Elder Shangguan stepping in, the Flying Crane Divine Lotus Lantern is definitely ours!"

"I thought it was just us. It turns out there was a Supreme Elder hiding in the shadows. I knew it. How could such a divine object send us out?"

"That's great!"

Just as the Cangshan disciples were overjoyed, a third figure rose from behind the distant woods. The voice was clear and crisp; it was a woman.

The woman had snow-white hair, but her skin was quite delicate, making her look like a woman in her thirties.

"Hehe, Shangguan Cheng, you're all old, yet you talk like a child. Are you getting more and more regressive? This is the Thunderfire Wasteland, not your Cangshan Cave Heaven Secret Realm!"

Here comes another one!
Everyone was startled. These three people hiding behind the scenes were clearly important figures in the Void Realm. It seemed that everyone was paying close attention to the appearance of this divine object.

Lin Chen sneered inwardly. Big shots are big shots, but they never care about the lives of others.

They had been fighting so fiercely before, yet none of them showed themselves, letting everyone fight to the death. If the first person hiding in the clouds hadn't revealed himself and forced the other two to appear, these three probably still wouldn't have shown up.

Shangguan Cheng sneered, "Hua Ranyue, does your Blood Blade Sect insist on getting involved in this mess?"

The white-haired woman, Hua Ranyue, looked up crisply at the first old man to appear and said with a smile, "Lei Kun, he's threatening me. If I back down, who do you think he'll threaten next?"

The first to appear, the old man in blue, Lei Kun, smiled faintly and said, "Why would my Luofu Mountain be afraid of Cangshan? Such opportunities are naturally determined by each person's own means."

Hua Ranyue's expression turned colder: "Luofu Mountain, Cangshan Mountain, the Ten Great Grotto-Heavens, my Blood Blade Sect has never been afraid of them. Since we're going to fight, let's each rely on our own methods."

"That's how it should be!"

As Lei Kun spoke, he suddenly reached out and grabbed at the Flying Crane Divine Lotus Lantern from mid-air. His giant hand stirred up the wind and clouds, vast and mighty.

"Humph!"

Shangguan Cheng let out a cold snort, like a thunderclap, causing everyone's hearts to pound violently and giving them an urge to vomit blood.

A black longsword flew into the air and slashed down, its blade light instantly extending ten miles, directly striking the giant spiritual hand and severing the hand in half.

Hua Ranyue unleashed a bead that shone with dazzling light, instantly riddling the giant hand with holes and causing it to collapse.

The three powerful figures clashed, their actions earth-shattering. In the midst of the melee, Shangguan Cheng's black blade slashed at Hua Ranyue's bead, causing a violent explosion. At the same time, Lei Kun struck Hua Ranyue with his hand.

Hua Ranyue's expression changed drastically. She originally wanted to join forces with Lei Kun to deal with Shangguan Cheng, but she did not expect that the two of them would join forces to deal with her without saying a word!

Caught off guard, Hua Ranyue suffered a great loss as Lei Kun's earth-shattering palm strike sent her plummeting into the lava pool below.

Hua Ranyue's body fell into the lava like a cannonball. If it were an ordinary cultivator, this person would be dead instantly, but Hua Ranyue was a Void Realm expert, so naturally she wouldn't be burned to death by mere lava.

The moment she came into contact with the magma, a protective shield of spiritual energy appeared around her body, repelling all the magma.

Her body crashed into the lava pool.

She sank a short distance before managing to steady herself. Just as she was about to rush out of the lava pool, an immense force suddenly rose rapidly from the bottom of the pool and struck Hua Ranyue's spiritual energy shield.

The spiritual energy shield burst like a soap bubble.

The powerful force struck Hua Ranyue again, and her body exploded before she could even withstand it for a second.

Hua Ranyue's primordial spirit screamed in agony as it frantically tried to escape upwards. A giant claw swung directly from the lava pool, grabbing Hua Ranyue's primordial spirit and squeezing it tightly.

"boom!"

Hua Ranyue's primordial spirit erupted violently, transforming into an extremely powerful burst of spiritual energy that blasted all the magma in the entire magma pool into the air.

At the same time, Shangguan Cheng and Lei Kun, after knocking Hua Ranyue away with a single blow, rushed towards the Flying Crane Divine Lotus Lantern.

Both of them knew very well that it was impossible to take away the Flying Crane Divine Lotus Lamp through remote means, because the other party would not give them that opportunity.

Only by getting closer.

The closer you are, the greater the power of your attack; the shorter the time it takes, the greater the probability of success!
The two moved very fast, and in the blink of an eye, they had arrived in front of the Flying Crane Divine Lotus Lantern. However, at this moment, the purple flame that had been burning quietly on the Flying Crane Divine Lotus Lantern, which was suspended in mid-air, suddenly expanded and instantly turned into a boundless purple flame, which instantly covered hundreds of meters.

Shangguan Cheng and Lei Kun, along with many other cultivators who hadn't retreated too far, were instantly engulfed by the purple flames.

At the same time, in the magma pool, a giant claw suddenly broke through the magma pool and grabbed at Shangguan Cheng and Lei Kun in the air.
