The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 923 Why aren't you chasing anymore?
Lin Chen leaped up cleanly from the ground. Although the fall was solid, it did not cause him any injury.

His bones are harder than steel!
He circulated his spiritual energy, only to find that an invisible force was imprisoning it. The spiritual energy was still there, but he could not use it.

How is this going?

If I can't use spiritual energy, then I'm doomed.

Lin Chen subconsciously turned around and was surprised to find that the woman in white was floating in the air far away, not approaching, and the woman in white had a solemn expression.

She didn't chase after us!
Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief, but a new worry arose in her heart. What kind of place was this that made her, a true dragon, so cautious and afraid to get close?
Having just escaped one danger, I've fallen into another?
Are we under new danger?

Lin Chen didn't rush into the palace. Instead, he looked up and shouted at the woman in white, "Weren't you chasing me like a ghost? Why did you suddenly stop?"

The woman in white fixed her gaze on Lin Chen, her eyes fierce: "You're lucky to have stumbled upon the Forbidden Spirit Palace, but that doesn't mean you've escaped!"

Forbidden Spirit Palace?
Lin Chen asked curiously, "Judging from your expression, you seem quite surprised. You've lived here for thousands of years, you should know this palace very well, so why are you surprised?"

The woman in white said coldly, "There is an array around this palace. It only appears at specific times, and the location of its appearance is also random. I have heard of its existence, but this is the first time I have encountered it."

Does it occur randomly at a specific time?
How come I never saw the woman in white here after living here for so long, but I bumped into her?

Am I really that lucky?

Lin Chen asked indirectly, "Since it's such a rare sight, why don't you come in and take a look?"

The woman in white stared coldly at Lin Chen: "The Forbidden Spirit Palace prohibits the flow of all spiritual energy. Even magical treasures are just scrap metal inside. Furthermore, it is said that the master of the Forbidden Spirit Palace is an extremely powerful and ferocious spirit-devouring beast. You might not be much safer inside than if I were chasing you!"

Soul-devouring Beast?
Lin Chen's heart tightened, and he subconsciously turned around to look at the palace gate.

The gate was quiet, without any movement.

The entire palace had no protective shields, as if it were completely undefended, allowing anyone to enter or leave at any time.

"What does a Soul-Devouring Beast look like? You're a true dragon, why would you be afraid of a Soul-Devouring Beast?"

The woman in white knew Lin Chen was trying to provoke her, but she didn't fall for it. "I've never seen it before, nor have I ever heard anyone describe what it looks like. Precisely because I've never seen it, it's always better to be cautious."

Lin Chen sat down neatly on the ground and said with a smile, "It's better to be careful. Since you've said so, I won't go in. I'll just rest here and recover."

Lin Chen casually took out the food and started eating by himself. He also took a few pills to help his body recover faster.

The woman in white glared at Lin Chen's arrogant demeanor, her eyes blazing with fury, her teeth itching with rage.

She had been relentlessly hunting down Lin Chen for over ten days without a moment's rest, all in an effort to wipe him out completely. After all, she knew very well that once the time in the secret realm was up, Lin Chen would be teleported out, and she would lose her chance to kill him.

However, Lin Chen was eating and drinking right in front of her, and she could only watch helplessly. How could she not be angry?
Judging from Lin Chen's posture, he clearly had no intention of entering the palace. He was just going to stall at the palace gate and buy time until the secret realm's time was up.

She landed on the ground and began to rest cross-legged, while observing the palace.

The two sat down to rest, one near and one far apart. Lin Chen asked, "Since we're just killing time, let's chat. What should we call each other?"

The woman in white said coldly, "I'll tell you when you die."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "You don't want to talk about it? That's fine too. Hey, that one with the big breasts, your sister said that an immortal wanted her to be his mount to pull a carriage, but she refused. She then overturned someone else's mansion, and then bumped into that immortal who came back and killed her, suppressed her primordial spirit here, and made her suffer torment. Is that what happened?"

The woman in white's face turned cold. "What do you mean by 'big boobs'? Do you want to die?"

On second thought, once I caught this kid, he was definitely doomed. He was clearly a dead pig who wasn't afraid of boiling water, and no amount of threats from me would work.

The woman in white gritted her teeth: "Meng Lan, if you keep yelling, I'll tear your tongue out."

Lin Chen replied with a smile, "That's right. The best way for humans to resolve conflicts is through communication. As long as we are willing to communicate, there is always a solution."

Meng Lan sneered, "You killed my sister, so I will kill you. This is a cause and effect that must be settled."

Lin Chen spread his hands: "Cause and effect, cause and effect, every mistake has a cause. I killed your sister because your sister wanted to kill me. That was self-defense. You probably don't blame me for that. I couldn't just lie there and let her kill me, could I?"
