The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3552 Either kill me, or I'll kill you all!
Lin Chen's heart suddenly started racing.

challenge?

Does defeating yourself make you the successor of the Ancestor Chen?
Lin Chen's mind raced as he glanced at the others.

These people remained calm and showed no sign of anything amiss; clearly, only they themselves had received the message from Ancestor Chen.

These people don't even know that Chen Zu is still alive.

Is it a matter of accepting challenges and automatically receiving the inheritance upon success?

What about these people?
Did the Ancestor of the Chen family look down on these people and simply abandon them?
Or perhaps, this challenge is related to these people?
Having reviewed his combat strength throughout the trials, Chen Zu roughly knew his limits. The challenge he spoke of was definitely not something easily accomplished, but there should be a slight chance of success.

If there's absolutely no chance of success, then it's not a challenge; it's suicide.

Many thoughts flashed through Lin Chen's mind, and he simply nodded.

I accept the challenge!

Now that they've come all this way, and have been targeted by Chen Zu, with all their trump cards exposed, and have run into Zhao Muran and his group, the final challenge is about to begin, so they're bound to gang up on them.

Since things have come to this, let's go all out and give it our all!
"Good, that's bold. I look forward to giving you some even bigger surprises in the future."

Chen Zu's voice disappeared, as if it had never existed.

The lack of reaction from those around him left Lin Chen with a rather complicated feeling.

Does this mean I've gained the favor of the Ancestor Chen?

What challenge was he referring to?

As Lin Chen was lost in thought, a sudden burst of golden light shone above the floating island.

This sudden change instantly attracted everyone in the pavilion, including Lin Chen, who all leaped up, left the pavilion, and looked up at the sky.

Chen Zu's figure appeared in the golden light, and everyone except Lin Chen, Zhao Muran and the others were all shocked.

They all thought that Chen Zu had vanished into thin air, but they never expected that he was still alive.

Chen Zu hovered in mid-air and calmly said, "You have all proven your strength by getting this far. Before I make my final choice, you need to complete one thing first."

Everyone bowed and clasped their hands in greeting, not daring to utter a word.

Chen Zu's gaze fell on Lin Chen, and he said calmly, "How can the inheritance of the Celestial God Clan's Saint fall into the hands of alien races? You should get rid of him for me first, so that he won't be an eyesore."

Everyone looked up in surprise, clearly not expecting that Chen Zu would make such a request.

Lin Chen's mind went blank for a moment, and his expression changed drastically.

What the hell!

Goodness, is this the challenge you were telling me about?
You said I'm incredibly strong and they're no match for me in one-on-one combat, so you found me a whole group of opponents?

If I kill them, all the competitors will be dead. As the sole survivor, I will naturally be considered to have succeeded in the challenge and will naturally be able to inherit the legacy. But if they kill me, then I will naturally fail in the challenge, and the future will have nothing to do with me.

This is indeed a great challenge!
Zhao Muran and the others had recovered from their shock, their eyes turning sharply to Lin Chen, their gazes filled with undisguised malice. Zhao Muran shouted, "Yes, Senior! We will definitely slay this alien race and prevent the inheritance of our Celestial God Clan from falling into the hands of aliens!"

Chen Zu hovered in mid-air, his expression calm: "This floating island is surrounded by a barrier. You can use all your strength. Go ahead and make your move. I'll be watching."

Several Celestial Clan men and women showed excited expressions. The Ancestor Chen was personally watching the battle. Could this be the final selection?

Choose your most satisfactory successor from this battle?
Each of them unleashed their own magical weapons, adopting a fighting stance, ready to use their most powerful moves to kill Lin Chen.

Lin Chen was alone. If I didn't make a move sooner, and if I didn't make a move in a stylish way, Lin Chen might be killed before it was my turn. Wouldn't I then have no chance to show my skills?
Lin Chen's body had already floated up into the air, and golden light shone on the Linglong Pagoda. A defensive barrier had been set up, enveloping Lin Chen within it.

Lin Chen summoned the Sun and Moon Divine Dragon Lamp, ready to unleash its power, and the Yin-Yang Water and Fire Mirror also flew out, hovering in front of Lin Chen.

This will be Lin Chen's most difficult battle to date, because these people are not only powerful Quasi-Saints, but they must also have many powerful Saint-level techniques at their disposal.

These people are all outstanding disciples of powerful and influential families. There are even saints from these families outside. Since they were allowed to come in to explore and challenge, they must have been equipped with all sorts of measures to ensure their safety.

This group is also destined to be the most difficult to kill.

Lin Chen naturally possesses the methods of a Saint, since he has two Saints by his side, Lord Meishi and Duanmu Wen. Since the Saints cannot show themselves during this exploration, Lin Chen naturally had them prepare many contingency plans for him.

Even if Lin Chen was prepared, he was still fighting against everyone else alone, and the pressure he faced would be immense. If he wasn't careful, he could be completely wiped out.

This battle truly exemplifies the saying, "Fortune favors the bold!"
Zhao Muran sneered, "Alien brat, I told you long ago that the inheritance of my Celestial Clan's Saint is not something a slave like you from another race is qualified to covet. Now you don't even have a chance to regret it!"

Lin Chen smiled coldly: "It's not certain who will die until this fight is over."

"Insanity!"

A man in brocade robes shouted, "You possess the supernatural ability to leap through the stars, but it's completely useless here. You're just a slave from another race, what can you use to resist us? To deal with you, we don't even need a group attack; I can easily take your dog's life by myself."

Lin Chen laughed: "Really? Then come here, let me see if your hands are as tough as your mouth!"

The man in brocade robes flew into a rage and turned to say, "Fellow Daoists, how can a mere alien slave be worth our joint effort to kill? Please wait a moment, I can kill him by myself."

The man in brocade robes' words drew disdainful glances from the others.

What are you pretending for?

Do we look like fools to you?
You just want to kill Lin Chen alone, show off in front of Chen Zu, and steal the limelight, don't you?

Are you still putting on an act, trying to make us watch a show?

You are dreaming!
Zhao Muran roared, "I've known this boy the longest, and we have a deep grudge. Even if someone has to be killed, it should be me who does it..."

Before Zhao Muran could finish speaking, a white-robed man beside him had already unleashed his magic weapon and attacked Lin Chen.

"Stop arguing! Since we're going to kill anyway, let's all attack together and see who can kill him!"

Seeing that everyone else had already made their move without giving him a chance to finish speaking, Zhao Muran was so angry that he gritted his teeth and quickly unleashed his magic weapon to attack Lin Chen.
