The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3539 Arrogance, Taking Advantage of the Situation
Having completed all the transactions, Lin Chen and Ning Hesheng did not delay any longer. They turned around, activated the magic weapon, and entered the inner hall.

Lin Chen's vision blurred, and then it went slightly dark. He was no longer in the bright sunshine outdoors, but inside the main hall.

Lin Chen gripped the Immortal Emperor's Token tightly in his left hand, his spiritual power surging, ready to be activated at any moment.

Although they made a profit and earned a large amount of divine crystals and cultivation resources, they also successfully attracted the attention of others. Once these people enter the palace, it is hard to guarantee that they will communicate with the people who entered before them, and it is hard to guarantee that some people will have malicious intentions towards them.

This deal they made yielded items worth over 100 million divine crystals, including many cultivation resources, which will be of great help to everyone exploring here.

As long as there are enough resources, even if the secrets of the Holy Land cannot be broken, one can hide in the Holy Land and rely on these resources to survive for an extremely long time, waiting for the Holy Land to be fully explored, and then one can regain freedom.

Lin Chen's worries did not come true. He was in an empty passageway and did not see anyone in front of him.

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

A few seconds later, Ning Hesheng appeared beside Lin Chen. The two looked at each other, said nothing, and walked forward together.

It's been a while since Sun Yixiao came in, and I wonder how he's doing.

Lin Chen and his companion walked out of the passage and saw a large group of people, including Sun Yixiao. However, he was surrounded by two or three people, and his situation seemed to be not good.

Sun Yixiao looked tense and was on high alert. When he suddenly saw Lin Chen and Ning Hesheng walk in, he visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

Ning Hesheng stepped forward: "Sun Yixiao, what's going on?"

Sun Yixiao quickly walked to Ning Hesheng's side and reported rapidly, "So many people came in at once, all carrying the magic weapons we refined. This attracted the attention of those who came in earlier. After asking them questions, they came to inquire about our origins, and their words were very impolite."

Ning Hesheng glanced at the group of people before him, his attitude cold and arrogant: "What, is there a problem with me crafting some magical artifacts to break through the barrier and help everyone get in?"

Ning Hesheng showed no fear despite the fact that the other party appeared to have more people. On the contrary, he was arrogant and seemed to disregard them.

He knew very well that if he showed even the slightest weakness, these people would bare their fangs and devour them, leaving not even bones behind.

Of course, these people would have to pay a huge price to devour the two of them. For those exploring, getting injured is not a good thing, because if you turn around, your former partner might turn around and stab you in the back.

Since everyone is a competitor, eliminating some wounded competitors, seizing each other's resources, and reducing the number of competitors are things that everyone would do without hesitation.

Ning Hesheng's assertive attitude indeed made the men who were questioning Sun Yixiao show a look of fear in their eyes.

A middle-aged man sized up Ning Hesheng: "Are you a disciple of the Black Emperor Palace?"

Ning Hesheng scanned the crowd but did not find Zhao Muran. He thought to himself that since she had come in, she must not be here, and she had probably already gone to a place further ahead.

These people are stuck here, are they?

If Zhao Muran isn't around, then his identity won't be exposed.

Ning Hesheng said coldly, "Senior Sister Zhao Muran entered this place before. I wonder if any of you have seen her?"

Ning Hesheng didn't deny it, which these people interpreted as an admission. Moreover, he called Zhao Muran "Senior Sister," making him undoubtedly a disciple of the Black Emperor Palace. The Black Emperor Palace was powerful, considered a first-rate force in the entire Heavenly God Realm. Although it was very far away, it didn't mean it could be easily bullied.

“I arrived quite early and saw the Fairy Zhao you mentioned. But Fairy Zhao is very powerful; she entered the inner palace more than ten days ago…”

Ning Hesheng's face lit up with delight: "Senior Sister Zhao is indeed amazing."

After a pause, Ning Hesheng's gaze swept over the crowd, and he sneered, "What, could it be that you all see that I've made a lot of resources selling magic treasures and are planning to interfere and rob me?"

The group of people, their secret exposed, looked embarrassed, since they had indeed been planning to do so.

Ning Hesheng appeared fearless and spoke forcefully: "I am outnumbered and certainly no match for all of you combined. However, I do possess some saintly methods. If any of you are not afraid of death, you are welcome to try and see who ultimately benefits."

The people around him had initially been looking at him with ill intent, but now that Ning Hesheng had revealed his identity as the "Black Palace" and given such a powerful speech, everyone immediately suppressed the greed in their eyes.

The Celestial Clan explorers who can enter this place, especially the disciples of major sects, all possess saintly abilities to varying degrees. In a real fight, they certainly wouldn't be afraid of Ning Hesheng. However, as Ning Hesheng said, if saintly abilities are unleashed, the heavens and earth will collapse and crack. What kind of consequences would that have?

In the end, who will benefit?
Whoever charges the fastest and gets the worst injuries will inevitably be eliminated by others in the end.

Moreover, would engaging in a fierce battle within this sacred domain, using the methods of a saint, violate the rules of the sacred domain and invite its backlash?

Perhaps not, but who would dare to gamble before these things are clear?

Lin Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. These people belonged to various factions and were even exploring alone, so they were definitely not of one mind. That's why Ning Hesheng's forceful actions made them unwilling to take action.

Of course, they only temporarily put aside their thoughts. If given the opportunity later, they would definitely not hesitate to take action.

Lin Chen wasn't worried about that. Since this group of people was blocked here, it meant that there was another checkpoint ahead. As long as they could get through the checkpoint, they could leave all these people behind.

The tense atmosphere immediately relaxed, and a large group of people entered the passage from behind.

These were the explorers who received the free magical artifacts; they were all of different races, which aroused the suspicion of those who had entered before them.

These people didn't have divine crystals or resources to exchange for magic weapons, so how did they also obtain magic weapons?

These people recounted what they had promised to do to help, and the people around them gave them various looks.

This kid actually used a magical artifact to do favors and win over helpers!

Although some of these alien slaves have masters here, others do not. This means that if Ning Hesheng and his group are attacked, these people are likely to side with Ning Hesheng.

Even if such a large group of people were not the most elite warriors, but merely slaves used for exploration and consumption, they were still a terrifying force that could not be ignored.

Everyone's eyes cleared completely when they looked at Ning Hesheng and the others.
