The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3658 Strange Demon
Beneath the massive spacetime vortex, hordes of saints scattered in all directions.

There is no concept of up, down, left, or right in the starry sky; all directions are infinite, and all directions are starry sky.

Lin Chen first left coordinates near the Vortex Gate before randomly choosing a direction to proceed.

According to Yu Qianfan's description, after emerging from the Vortex Gate, there were Heavenly Demons in all directions.

As long as you choose a direction where there are no people and search forward, you will definitely be able to find the whereabouts of the Heavenly Demon.

They couldn't define where this starry sky was, or even whether it was on the same plane as the Celestial Realm. In short, they were certain that countless Celestial Demons lived in this vast and boundless starry sky.

The gods came in groups earlier, hoping to find the secrets of this starry sky, to find the lair of the Heavenly Demon, and to see just how powerful the Heavenly Demon's transparency really was; however, they did not succeed.

This starry sky is so vast.

The Celestial Realm is also very vast, but compared to this starry sky, it seems so small as to be negligible.

The universe is infinitely vast, which is vividly demonstrated in the starry sky.

Lin Chen hoped to discover something in this starry sky, even if it was just a place where the Heavenly Demons lived. The main reason was that Lin Chen felt that searching for Heavenly Demons one by one would be too slow in terms of earning energy and Heavenly Demon Crystals.

Soon, Lin Chen was all alone in the starry sky.

Lin Chen did not rush to summon An Wenwei and the others. After all, he was a saint, and even if he really encountered a Heavenly Demon, he would not be killed in a second.

Lin Chen transformed into a star, traversing the Milky Way, and sped towards the depths of the distant starry sea.

Finally, Lin Chen discovered a huge planet. The planet's surface was red and green, and it seemed that there was life on it.

Lin Chen's powerful perception extended instantly, covering the entire planet.

Ok?
There's a powerful aura fluctuation?

Is it a demon?
Just as Lin Chen was still considering how to deal with it, a beam of light rose rapidly from the planet and rushed straight toward him.

Lin Chen felt a chill run down his spine. Well, he hadn't even looked for him yet, but the other guy had already come looking for him.

Fortunately, there was only one other person!

Lin Chen summoned the Linglong Pagoda and immediately brought out An Wenwei, while Duanmu Wen and Mei Shi remained inside for the time being.

Lin Chen was worried that if he summoned multiple people at once, he might scare them away.
As the light and shadow drew closer, a towering crimson light appeared before Lin Chen's eyes, like a monstrous sword aura unleashed by a slash.

An Wenwei stepped forward and unleashed his magic weapon, blocking the attack.

With a single blow, An Wenwei's body flew backward through the air, instantly shattering a large piece of meteorite floating in the air.

The light and shadow didn't seem to fare well either, as they were also knocked away.

Judging from the effect of both sides being sent flying backwards, it seems that neither side gained an advantage from this attack.

"Thousands of years have passed, and you've come again!"

A strange roar echoed in Lin Chen's mind. Strangely, Lin Chen hadn't even seen what shape the other life form was, yet he understood its words.

This must be a form of communication that works on the depths of the soul.

The light and shadow stopped in mid-air, and Lin Chen could finally see its shape clearly. It was a humanoid life form, but very peculiar.

He had a roughly human-like appearance, with a scorpion-like tail behind him and curved horns on his head. His body was covered as if wrapped in bandages, completely obscuring his skin, even his face.

Beneath the bandages, his eyes gleamed with lightning-like light, and his tail also flashed with a series of lightning bolts, making him look quite intimidating.

Is this the Heavenly Demon?
It looks much better than the brutal appearance I had imagined.

However, the opponent launched a full-force attack the moment they met. If he hadn't summoned Anwenwei in time, he might not have been able to withstand the attack.

The Heavenly Demon is indeed ferocious!

This was the first demon I had ever seen. Without saying a word, it attacked and killed me. Perhaps in their eyes, I was an intruder who had entered their territory.
Under the starry sky, the strong prey on the weak.

If the Heavenly Demon is strong enough, then we will be the prey.

Lin Chen replied, "Have you seen our adventurers before?"

The Heavenly Demon roared, "I've seen you before. I've even hunted down three of you. Your bodies are excellent energy sources, which are very helpful to me. Now that you've reappeared, it's time for our revelry again."

Lin Chen frowned: "A time of revelry? As far as I know, while quite a few of our people have indeed died at your hands since we came here, even more of your people have died. Can this really be considered a revelry?"

The Heavenly Demon's tone was arrogant and disdainful: "The identity of hunter and prey is defined by strength. As long as I am strong enough, I am the hunter. This is my hunting moment. Isn't this my carnival?"

"As for those weak Heavenly Demons, weakness is the original sin. Isn't it only natural that they are killed? We Heavenly Demons kill each other. Those Heavenly Demons who die at your hands are just dead and don't deserve any sympathy."

The Heavenly Demon is indeed ruthless and violent!

"Look, you tried to ambush us just now, but you didn't gain any advantage. This shows that killing us won't be easy for you. How about we exchange some information and then go our separate ways?"

The demon's voice was furious: "What, do you perhaps want to ask me where our demon race's settlement is?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Yes, can I tell you?"

The demon replied, "Of course we can't say. If we do, we'll die immediately."

Will I die if I say it?
No wonder that despite so many gatherings of saints, and even the gods themselves coming here, they still haven't found the place where the Heavenly Demons live.

The Heavenly Demons have spread throughout this star field. The number of Heavenly Demons, both those that have been searched and those that haven't, is probably terrifying. This raises a question for everyone: how did the Heavenly Demon race come about, and where is their territory?

However, to this day, there is still no clear answer to either of these questions.

These demons do not appear to be made of flesh and blood, but rather of an extremely pure form of energy.

Looks like we need to catch one of them and investigate.

"Friend, I'm giving you a chance to live. Tell me everything you know, or today might be your last day."

The Heavenly Demon stared at Lin Chen, lightning flashing beneath the cloth, with strands of lightning seemingly seeping out from the edges of the cloth, making them appear as if they were enveloped in lightning.

"You're much weaker than that guy. You couldn't even withstand one of my attacks..."
