The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 865 I am your person, they are the outsiders.
A wisp of water essence was infused into the Life Pearl, instantly boosting the vitality transformed within it.

The wounds on Lin Chen's body were visibly healing.

It scabs over and then falls off.

Lin Chen returned to normal, and even appeared a bit fairer due to the new skin.

"Brother, your face is so fair, and you're even more handsome!"

Lin Chen joked, "With a fair complexion, you could be a gigolo."

Gu Yuexi laughed and said, "There aren't any pretty boys that powerful. By the way, this bead looks a bit like the Life-Giving Bead, the treasure of Cangshan Grotto-heaven."

Lin Chen answered frankly, "Yes, that's it."

Gu Yuexi asked in surprise, "How did you get it? That's amazing!"

Lin Chen gave a brief account, and Gu Yuexi's eyes lit up: "You're really lucky. You not only got a Cangshan Gate Guide, but also a Life Pearl. You'd better hide it well and make sure the people from Cangshan Cave Heaven don't see it, otherwise, someone might come after you asking for it back."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I will be careful. Besides, I found it. I didn't steal it or rob it. It won't be so easy for me to take it back. My master and senior brothers may not agree."

Gu Yuexi smiled and said, "It's best not to expose it to avoid trouble."

Lin Chen joked, "You're the rising star of Cangshan now, you're siding with outsiders."

Gu Yuexi threw herself into Lin Chen's arms and kissed him. After a long while, she looked up with a flushed face and said, "I am yours, they are the outsiders."

Lin Chen put his arm around Gu Yuexi and laughed, "Okay!"

Gu Yuexi pursed her lips: "When are you going to push me down? Aren't you in a hurry, brother? Are you waiting for me to push you down?"

Lin Chen was slightly embarrassed: "I originally planned to meet you first, then your sister, and have a thorough discussion before we actually get together..."

Gu Yuexi said "Oh" and nodded slightly to show her understanding: "Okay, anyway, I'm at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage now, and I have the ability to travel the world. I can go find you or my sister now, instead of staying in Cangshan all the time."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Okay, let's go to a nearby city and ask around to see where we are now."

Just as the two were about to take off, Lin Chen's expression suddenly changed, and he abruptly grabbed Gu Yuexi's hand.

"Hide!"

The two slipped behind a clump of bushes and peered out through the gaps in the trees.

Suddenly, a huge figure appeared on the hill ahead. It was at least ten meters tall and was an enormous rhinoceros with a single, shiny black horn on its head, which was even more frightening than a battering ram.

It's running!

The entire ground resounded with a sound like thunder, its power terrifying.

"It's so big, what kind of strength does it need?" Lin Chen shook his head, his expression tense, and whispered, "Shh! Conceal your aura, don't make a sound... It's trying to escape!"

run away?

Gu Yuexi's eyes widened in shock. If even such a ferocious beast was running away, what was chasing it?
The answer was revealed the next second.

Suddenly, a giant black eagle appeared behind the mountain peak in front of us. The eagle took off from behind the mountain peak, its wings spread wide, covering the sky and the sun!
A giant eagle swooped down from the sky, blotting out the light from the entire land, as if the sky had suddenly darkened.

The giant eagle swept over the one-horned rhinoceros, extending its enormous and sharp talons to seize the rhinoceros's body. With a flap of its massive wings and a howling wind, it carried the rhinoceros into the air.

The giant eagle flew low over the hills, glancing down at Lin Chen and his companion as it flew over their heads.

That one glance sent chills down the spines of both Lin Chen and Gu Yuexi.

The giant eagle had clearly noticed the two of them, but simply ignored them.

Too scary!

Such a huge and ferocious rhinoceros, once caught by its claws, has no ability to resist whatsoever. What kind of strength does it take?
The giant eagle quickly flew away and eventually disappeared from sight.

Gu Yuexi patted her chest, looking terrified: "That's an eagle? That's terrifying!"

Lin Chen smiled wryly and said, "It seems we've come to an extraordinary place. In ordinary places like the Wilderness Realm, there wouldn't be such ferocious beings. We need to be careful."

Gu Yuexi nodded: "It seems we can't fly at high altitudes, otherwise, if we're spotted by something like a giant eagle, we're likely doomed."

"Yes, let's stay close to the ground and head east."

"it is good!"

The two flew out of their hiding place and headed forward. They hadn't flown far when a huge cliff appeared in front of them. Lin Chen peered down and his expression immediately froze.

"what is that?"

Below the cliff lies a boundless valley, where a massive white jade platform tilts and sinks into the valley. On the platform stand countless bronze pillars engraved with huge runes, and on the ground between the bronze pillars lies an enormous magic array.

The magic array was not activated, and the entire white jade platform was covered in dust, appearing dilapidated and old.

Because the entire valley, including the white jade platform in the center, was forcibly divided in two by a ravine of unknown depth and length.

The crack in the white jade platform was perfectly smooth, while within this bottomless ravine, sword energy soared into the sky, captivating the soul. Even a single glance would make one's heart race and one feel as if their eyes were about to be blinded.

Lin Chen looked shocked and muttered to himself, "Was this cleaved in two by a single sword strike?"
