For a past promise, Xiao Chen makes a powerful return, becoming the personal bodyguard to a beautiful CEO. He sweeps aside all enemies, forging his own legend as a true king!
He climbs to the...
Night falls again.
In a valley, Xiao Chen and others set up camp and lit a bonfire.
While Bai Ye and the others were busy, Xiao Chen was also not idle. He placed cameras everywhere in the valley.
It’s not that he is careful, but in a place like this, he has to be careful.
With the camera there, he can react immediately if anything happens.
Although the spiritual sense can also detect danger, it is definitely not as effective and... easy as a camera.
Human power is limited. Since we have the conditions, why not use them? Why do we have to make things difficult for ourselves?
You must know that releasing spiritual consciousness consumes a lot of spiritual power.
It was impossible for him to stay awake all night, keeping his consciousness out and paying attention to everything around him.
After placing the cameras, Xiao Chen did some debugging and made sure that there were no blind spots where they were setting up camp. Only then did he nod with satisfaction.
These cameras can definitely keep an eye on all directions and hear all ears, unless there is danger coming from underground!
"Damn it... I've only been in the no-man's land for a short time and I almost died twice."
Bai Ye was sitting on a rock, wrapping gauze around his arm.
"You were only slightly injured, that's not a double death. I was the one who almost died."
Sun Wugong drank some wine. Although he was not injured, he looked quite embarrassed.
"Yeah, we were almost finished."
Bai Ye looked at Sun Wugong and nodded.
"Only Brother Chen's medical skills are amazing and he saved your life."
"Yes, I will never be able to repay Brother Chen for saving my life in this lifetime."
Sun Wugong glanced at Xiao Chen in the distance and took another big gulp of wine.
"If you want to repay Brother Chen for saving your life, that's easy. Just give yourself to him."
Bai Ye grinned.
"roll!"
Sun Wugong glared and almost threw the wine gourd at him.
"Hao Jian, your swordsmanship is becoming more and more powerful..."
Bai Ye joked for a while, then thought of something and looked at Hao Yun again.
"Um."
Hao Jian held the sword and nodded.
"Fuck... You never smile, as if everyone owes you money."
Bai Ye curled his lips.
"Hey, I remember you were laughing when you were hugging a woman in the club."
"roll!"
Hao Jian raised the Zhuiyun Sword.
"Am I afraid of you? I'm also at the peak of my Hua Jin level now... Shit, Xiao Dao, don't touch my arm. It hurts."
Bai Ye gasped in pain, his face twisted into a knot.
In the evening, they encountered more than a dozen strange beasts.
Among these dozen or so strange beasts, the strongest one is comparable to the third or fourth level of heaven, and the weakest is around the late stage of Hua Jin.
Such exotic beasts were excellent training for Bai Ye and his men, and they fought a great battle.
Bai Ye faced a strange beast with almost half-step innate strength. Despite injuring his arm, he cut off the beast's head.
Now, there are already quite a few corpses of strange beasts in Xiao Chen’s bone ring.
Not to mention anything else, these exotic beasts alone are a considerable harvest.
"Come and help me roast a strange beast to eat."
Xiao Chen took out a not-so-big strange beast from the bone ring, and then took out water and other things.
Everyone came forward to help, and after a simple cleaning, they put it on the campfire.
“It must be delicious.”
Li Hanhou turned the stick with the exotic beast on it, looking forward to it.
"Every time at this time, I always miss Lao Huo..."
Bai Ye said slowly.
"Your tone makes it seem like Lao Huo is dead."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"But speaking of it, the old barbecue is really unique."
"Stop talking, stop talking. Your mouth is watering."
Bai Ye said this, looking at the wound on his arm.
"Brother Chen, give me two bottles of blue potion."
"good."
Xiao Chen took out two bottles, handed them over, then took out the animal skin map and started looking at it.
They have already been to several places. It cannot be said that they have not gained anything, but it is not great.
As for the ancient warriors, they also encountered several waves... and there were even more dead people.
In the no-man's land, the thing that is most abundant is the dead, and these are incomplete dead bodies.
"Everyone, restrain your breath, so as not to attract strange beasts..."
Xiao Chen thought of something and reminded.
Nothing else, he just wanted to have a good sleep late at night.
"Um."
Everyone nodded, and the breath disappeared.
"Where are you going tomorrow?"
Xiao Lin came over and sat down and asked.
"I haven't decided yet. Anyway, let's go deeper... From the map, we are already deep in the no-man's land."
Xiao Chen took out a cigarette and passed it around.
"First, visit all the places on the map, and then act according to circumstances when you reach the deepest point."
"good."
Xiao Lin lit a cigarette and took a puff.
"Speaking of which, although this trip was short, I gained a lot."
"Haha, our gains may not be as great as the star stone you got."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Star Stone... that was just a coincidence, just luck."
Xiao Lin smiled bitterly.
"Didn't the old immortal say that that thing is extremely rare in the entire no-man's land?"
"No matter how little, I'll try to get one this time."
Xiao Chen said.
"Hmm? Why? Did you use that star stone?"
Xiao Lin was curious.
"That star stone..."
Xiao Chen shook his head and explained the changes in the bone ring.
"oh?"
Everyone was surprised when they heard Xiao Chen's words. It seemed that the world in this bone ring was constantly changing.
Ding Wu sat at the farthest point. He knew that even if they were traveling together, he would never be able to fully integrate into their circle.
He only hoped that he could walk out of the no-man's land alive. As for the opportunity... He touched his pocket. The life essence had already made him very satisfied.
Just as Xiao Chen and others were chatting, seven or eight people appeared.
The leader was an old man wearing a black robe and looking extraordinary.
The people behind him also had very powerful auras, and the weakest of them were at the middle stage of Hua Jin.
"The second heaven?"
Xiao Chen could tell the old man's realm at a glance and was secretly surprised.
Nowadays, there are more innates in the ancient martial arts world, but most of them are at the first level, and there are very few at the second level.
Unless there is a great opportunity after building the foundation, it will be possible to make a breakthrough in a short period of time.
Or he could be a strong innate person of the older generation, but looking at this old man’s age...it shouldn’t be that.
"Dear friends..."
The old man was quite polite and bowed.
Xiao Chen looked at Xiao Lin, who smiled helplessly, stood up and bowed.
After a few pleasantries, the old man stated his purpose and asked if he could stay here tonight.
Xiao Lin frowned slightly and looked at Xiao Chen. After all, this was not a trivial matter.
"Haha, you are too polite, of course I can."
Xiao Chen smiled and did not refuse.
"Thank you, my friend."
The old man bowed and looked towards the bonfire.
"If you don't mind, you can come and sit down."
Xiao Chen invited again.
"Thank you, sorry to bother you then."
The old man nodded and led everyone to sit down.
"Brother Chen was just being polite, but this old man took it seriously?"
When Bai Ye saw that they really sat down, he curled his lips and muttered.
"We are all fellow martial artists."
Xiaodao laughed.
"A fellow martial artist? Oh, we should always be on guard against others."
Bai Ye sneered and looked at everyone.
"Who knows what they are planning."
After everyone sat down, they put down their packages and took out a lot of food.
"Everyone, I'm sorry to bother you without permission... But it's even more dangerous in this deserted area at night, so I thought we could help each other."
The old man had a smile on his face and was very polite.
"Haha, you are too polite, senior. We are all ancient warriors. This is what we should do in this uninhabited area."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"I see you look familiar..."
The old man looked at Xiao Chen. He had already seen that this young man was probably the leader of this group of people.
"Haha, I have a common face, and many people say I look familiar."
Xiao Chen said casually.
“…”
After listening to Xiao Chen's words, Bai Ye and others knew that he was not going to reveal his true identity.
But...you said you have an ordinary face, are you ashamed to do that?
"Haha, you are joking, little friend."
The old man looked at Xiao Chen, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
As they chatted, Xiao Chen got to know a little about the origins of this group of people.
They come from a second-rate force in the south and have great influence in the local area.
The old man is the sect’s great elder. Although he is not considered to be from the older generation, he is much older than Xue Chunqiu and the others.
As time goes by, the aroma of meat fills the air, making people swallow their saliva and whet their appetite.
"Mr. Chen, and everyone else, let's use it together."
Xiao Chen invited.
"Haha, thank you very much..."
The old man smiled and nodded.
After some chatting and contact, even Bai Ye was not so resistant anymore.
This group of people are still very disciplined.
Everyone was chatting and laughing, a rare opportunity to relax in this no-man's land where one could be killed or injured.
"We have killed strange beasts before, but we didn't expect that the meat of these strange beasts is so delicious. It's a waste..."
The old man said while eating meat.
"It seems that next time we hunt exotic beasts, we can't waste them."
"Well, the meat of exotic beasts is also a great tonic for ancient warriors."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Different exotic beasts have different functions... Come, Mr. Chen, have a drink."
"good."
The old man nodded and clinked glasses with Xiao Chen, but he was confused in his heart. What kind of people are this group of people?
Why is the preparation so thorough?
It would be fine if he just brought a tent or something, but he even brought wine glasses?
This is an uninhabited area, not a resort area!
Why do I feel like they are here on vacation!
After eating and drinking, I feel sleepy due to a hard day's work.
The old men were also quite well-behaved and set up camp about ten meters away from Xiao Chen and his group.
The tents they brought were much worse, they were simple types.
"Everyone should go to bed early."
Xiao Chen called out to everyone and they all went into their tents.
Apart from the bonfire and the occasional crackling of wood, there was no other sound in the valley.
The moon moved westward, clouds covered it, and the wind started to blow.
I don't know when the bonfire went out, and the sky became darker.
Just after the Yin hour, several simple tents were opened quietly.
The old man and others came out of the tent.
“Grand Elder…”
Someone came forward and bowed.
"Kill them all, leaving no one behind."
The old man waved his hand, his voice extremely cold.
At this moment, he no longer had the smile he had before, and his old face was full of coldness and murderous intent.
"yes."
Everyone responded, holding swords and slowly walked towards the tent of Xiao Chen and others.
