Chapter 674 - 576: President Wu's Cleverness (Second Update)
"Young Master, this jade pendant of mine..."
The female bodyguard wanted to explain something, but the other female bodyguard had already made a move.
With a flip of her hand, a dagger appeared.
Swish!
The dagger swiftly aimed right at Chen Shangzheng.
"Such speed, you're not ordinary bodyguards, are you cultivators?"
Yang Tian reached out and grabbed the dagger headed towards Chen Shangzheng.
He utilized his Divine Sense to probe the two female bodyguards, although they showed no external Spirit Breath wave, Yang Tian felt Demon Breath within their souls.
A cold gleam flashed in his eyes.
It's likely these two female bodyguards aren't cultivators, but rather controlled by Corpse Demons.
On their souls, Yang Tian not only sensed Demon Breath but also a Demon Heart.
"Since the affair is exposed, we won't live long!"
The two female bodyguards exchanged a glance filled with killing intent, and they simultaneously advanced toward Yang Tian and Chen Shangzheng.
Yang Tian did not rush to act.
Instead, he circulated Spirit Breath, transforming into a violent wind, pushing back the female bodyguard in front of him.
"Protective Talisman!"
Yang Tian waved his hand, sending a Protective Talisman towards Chen Shangzheng.
Bang!
The Protective Talisman burned, forming a protective layer over Chen Shangzheng.
The female bodyguard attacking Chen Shangzheng wielded a slender Demon Sword but was blocked by the protective shield around Chen Shangzheng.
She retreated a step and muttered an incantation under her breath.
Soon, a Magic Mirror appeared in her palm.
"Finally taking out a Demon Artifact?"
Yang Tian smiled coldly.
These two female bodyguards were evidently controlled by Corpse Demons, the Magic Mirror was probably meant to collect Chen Shangzheng's Demon Fiend bloodline.
"Die!"
The female bodyguard shouted, projecting the Magic Mirror towards Yang Tian.
A strong beam of Demon Breath light radiated out from the Magic Mirror, striking Yang Tian.
In that moment, Yang Tian experienced a brief True Spirit State.
If this Magic Mirror shone on Chen Shangzheng, in no time his flesh would be dissolved.
But for a cultivator like Yang Tian, the Magic Mirror's effect wouldn't last long.
Yang Tian formed a Dharma Seal, releasing Spirit Breath, quickly forming it into a Spirit Breath Stream, shaping it into a Spirit Basin to absorb the light from the Magic Mirror.
"Die!"
The other female bodyguard shouted sharply, waving her hand, thrusting a Demon Sword at Yang Tian.
She intended to stop Yang Tian.
Yang Tian laughed coldly, he slapped his hand, and the Spirit Basin expanded, not only absorbing the light from the Magic Mirror but also inhaling the Demon Sword.
The female bodyguard holding the Magic Mirror couldn't hold on much longer.
Seeing Yang Tian absorb the Magic Mirror's light, she tried a desperate struggle, but as soon as she ran Demon Breath, Yang Tian had already enveloped her with the Spirit Basin.
Bang!
The Spirit Basin enlarged, covering the female bodyguard.
Not only was the Magic Mirror in the hands of the female bodyguard absorbed, but the female bodyguard herself was also absorbed into the Spirit Basin.
"What are you doing... Let me out immediately..."
The female bodyguard's panicked voice came from inside the Spirit Basin.
"Where is Madam Chen now?"
Yang Tian asked coldly.
"I don't know!"
Just as the female bodyguard's voice sounded, Yang Tian pinched his hand.
With a loud explosion, the Spirit Basin burst apart, the female bodyguard and the Magic Mirror shattered, turning into a stream of Spirit Breath, which Yang Tian compressed into a Spirit Pill.
"This Magic Mirror is indeed a superior Demon Artifact, the Spirit Pill refined from it is yellow-orange!"
The Spirit Pill in Yang Tian's hand was yellow-orange, indicating it was a third-grade Spirit Pill.
"Yang Tian, you are indeed ruthless!"
The remaining female bodyguard's face changed.
Yang Tian killed without hesitation, terrifying her.
"Ruthless?"
Yang Tian laughed, in his dictionary, there was never talk of ruthlessness, either his enemy dies or he perishes.
"I'm just here to complete my task!"
The female bodyguard held her ground and declared.
Her eyes were completely blood-red. With a sudden struggle, she took out the Magic Mirror and pressed it towards Chen Shangzheng.
A beam of Demon Breath light shined from the Magic Mirror, swiftly enveloping Chen Shangzheng.
"Yang Tian, save me..."
Chen Shangzheng's face changed drastically. He was just an ordinary person, how could he possibly resist this powerful beam of Demon Breath?
In just that moment, Chen Shangzheng's face went pale as paper, and the Demon Fiend bloodline in his body was continuously absorbed.
"Courting death!"
Yang Tian flipped his left hand, unleashing Heaven-shattering Extinction.
Bang!
The Magic Mirror in the female bodyguard's hand shattered, and she was also struck, thrown backwards.
Yet Yang Tian didn't kill her outright.
He flashed forth in a step, reached out and squeezed, grabbing the female bodyguard's neck, lifting her alive, and said coldly, "Tell me, where is Madam Chen? I'll let you die with a complete corpse."
"You..." the female bodyguard roared madly, "I'll never tell you even if I die!"
"Death? That's too easy for you!"
Yang Tian activated the Spirit Talisman, transforming into thousands of ants that crawled into the female bodyguard's body. Immediately, her face changed drastically; being gnawed by thousands of ants was worse than dying.
She couldn't hold on much longer, and screamed desperately, "I'll tell you, Madam Chen is in the hotel's basement... There's a warehouse there, Corpse Demon made us tamper with it... So no one knows Madam Chen is there or can use Spiritual Breath to sense it... I've told you, please don't kill me..."
Yang Tian operated Spiritual Breath and shattered the Demon Heart within the female bodyguard.
As soon as he loosened the grip, the female bodyguard fell down to the ground, barely alive.
"Follow me!"
Chen Shangzheng quickly led them toward the basement.
Yang Tian hesitated for a moment, then followed.
Inside the basement, everyone found Madam Chen, her face pale and very weak, but she still opened her eyes, searching for Yang Tian's figure.
Upon seeing Yang Tian, she uttered a firm voice, "Yang Tian, I hope you return to the Chen Family and oversee the situation!"
Yang Tian fell silent.
He didn't want to come down, fearing he'd face such issues from Madam Chen.
"You should first take the old lady back, find her a warm place, don't let her catch a cold..."
Yang Tian used Divine Sense to check Madam Chen.
Within Madam Chen, there was no Demon Breath or Demon Heart, leaving Yang Tian puzzled as to why the Corpse Demon wanted to capture Madam Chen.
But at the moment, Yang Tian said nothing, waving his hand to let Chen Shangzheng take Madam Chen back.
Upon leaving, Madam Chen was still unwilling to give up, tightly holding Yang Tian's hand: "Yang Tian, you haven't answered me about what I said."
"I'll visit another day to discuss it."
Yang Tian said lightly.
He intended to solve the Corpse Demon issue in the next few days, then leave Capital City.
Unaware of Yang Tian's thoughts, Madam Chen nodded heavily: "Alright, the Chen Family is waiting for you!"
Watching the figures of Madam Chen and Chen Shangzheng gradually depart, Yang Tian felt some irritation as he walked outside the hotel, only to see Wu Yue and Ling Ying standing at the door, constantly talking to Madam Chen: "Madam Chen, I am Wu Yue from East Sea Yueyue Group, Yang Tian's girlfriend..."
Yang Tian felt even more annoyed and came over to knock on Wu Yue's head: "Can you stop talking? Let Madam Chen go back and rest first!"
"Grandmother, please go back and rest, another day I'll visit with Yang Tian to pay respects!"
Wu Yue said respectfully.
"Yang Tian, is this your wife?"
Madam Chen smiled, looking at Yang Tian.
"Yes, I'm indeed Yang Tian's wife..."
Wu Yue hadn't finished speaking when Yang Tian already pulled her away.
After walking for more than ten minutes, they arrived at a square bustling with people. At this moment, Wu Yue pushed Yang Tian away angrily, "Yang Tian, what do you mean? The contract states that after three months, you become the Chen Family's Clan Leader, and I'll marry you. What did you mean earlier, trying to embarrass me in front of Madam Chen?"
"Yes, I just wanted to embarrass you!"
Yang Tian felt somewhat irritated.
Ever since he met Madam Chen today, he had been bothered by thoughts of his own background.
Now seeing Wu Yue acting unreasonable, he wanted to put her in place.
People around, both men and women, noticed this situation and gathered around.
"How dare you, Yang Tian, you'd better be careful or I'll abandon you!"
Wu Yue said angrily, seeing so many people gathered.
Yang Tian was speechless, realizing this beautiful president only had eyes for the Chen Family behind him? Ridiculous, if he didn't teach her a lesson, she'd never admit her mistake.
With this thought, Yang Tian operated Spiritual Breath, transforming into a foul odor.
He simultaneously used a Spirit Talisman, detonating it behind Wu Yue.
Bang!
The Spirit Talisman exploded, sounding like a fart.
"My goodness, how smelly! This woman is a peerless beauty, how is her fart so smelly?"
The people around all covered their noses.
"Yang Tian, you're teasing me!" Wu Yue was furious, realizing Yang Tian's trick, embarrassing her in public. But being a smart female president, with eyes full of resentment, she suddenly said: "Yang Tian, it's all your fault for being too rough last night, making me half dead. See, I'm leaking now."
"....."
