The Playboy Bodyguard of the Beautiful CEO

Chapter 718 - 620: Chen Xiaoli

"Alright, quickly absorb the Spirit Pill, we need to return to the Chen Family."

Yang Tian said to Wu Yue.

"Hehe..."

Wu Yue giggled, hurriedly sat down, and rapidly refined the Spirit Pill.

When she completely absorbed the Spiritual Breath from the Spirit Pill, a blood-red glow had already formed behind her.

She stood up, somewhat surprised looking at her hands: "Yang Tian, what's happening? Have I really broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm?"

Yang Tian channeled the Spiritual Breath to probe into Wu Yue's body, then said, "Not yet, you are currently at the Mid-stage Core Formation Realm, you still need to slowly absorb the Spirit Pill."

"So, if I completely absorb the Spirit Pill, I can really break through to the Nascent Soul Realm?"

Wu Yue was a bit excited.

"Of course!" Yang Tian laughed and said to Wu Zetian and Ling Ying, "You two should also refine yours quickly."

Wu Zetian and Ling Ying exchanged a glance and swiftly refined their Spirit Pills.

However, like Wu Yue, they didn't fully absorb the Spirit Pill, only breaking through to the Core Formation Realm.

"Everything in due course, for now, let's return to the Chen Family."

Immediately, Yang Tian and the others escorted Chen Shangliang and Chen Hong into the car, instructing Chen Shangzheng to head towards the Chen Family.

In less than an hour, they arrived back at the Chen Family.

Madam Chen, Liang Lijun, upon hearing that Chen Shangliang was brought back, hurried out: "Tian, what's going on? What happened to my son?"

"Mother, second brother colluded with the Corpse Demon, wanting to become the Clan Leader of the Chen Family, and planned to provide a set amount of Demon Fiend bloodline to the Corpse Demon each year!"

Chen Shangzheng said righteously.

"Is this really true?"

Liang Lijun stared intensely at Chen Shangliang.

Chen Shangliang looked extremely lifeless, sitting there dazed, staring straight ahead.

On the side, Chen Hong, pale-faced, said, "Grandmother, father was just momentarily bewitched, he made a mistake in confusion, after all, he is the second young master of the Chen Family, I beg grandmother for mercy."

Liang Lijun's expression darkened, after a long pause, she suddenly asked: "Is it true that Shangliang really colluded with the Corpse Demon?"

It was deathly silent all around.

Everyone felt the murderous intent of Madam Chen.

"If that's the case, then imprison them, and when the master returns, immediately strip him of his position and lock him in the Chen Family's dungeon, we don't need such a traitor in the Chen Family!" Liang Lijun said resolutely, "With enemies everywhere, the Corpse Demon will soon attack, we absolutely can't allow traitors in the Chen Family!"

Only at this moment did Chen Shangliang raise his head, staring intently at Liang Lijun.

"What are you all standing around for? Drag those two to the Chen Family dungeon!"

Liang Lijun shouted sternly.

"Yes!"

Several Chen Family attendants approached Chen Shangliang and Chen Hong.

Chen Shangliang glanced at Liang Lijun, a trace of despair passing through his eyes, he sat there dazed, no longer resisting, but beside him, Chen Hong became anxious: "Grandmother, my father was momentarily bewitched... cough..."

As she spoke, Chen Hong started to cough violently.

Suddenly, she coughed up a mouthful of foul blood.

"Demon Poison!"

Wu Yue blurted out.

Yang Tian quickly approached, his Divine Sense probing a moment, then shook his head: "The Demon Poison in her body has reached her heart, there's no saving her."

Chen Hong coughed a few more times, then fell to the ground, dying painfully.

Her eyes were filled with unwillingness.

"What are you all standing around for? Take Chen Hong's body to the crematorium and lock Chen Shangliang in the Chen Family dungeon!"

The hall was deathly silent for a moment, then Liang Lijun spoke.

"Wait a moment..." Yang Tian suddenly waved his hand, then looked at Chen Shangliang: "Chen Shangliang, you only need to answer one question, and I will explain to Madam Chen to spare your life."

"Yang Tian, what is your question?"

Chen Shangliang looked at Yang Tian sternly.

"Where is the Corpse Demon?"

Yang Tian asked calmly.

"You want to find the Corpse Demon? I don't know!"

Chen Shangliang replied instinctively.

"You dealt with the Corpse Demon, how can you not know where they are?" Yang Tian smirked: "The Corpse Demon is a treacherous Demon Race, they came to Huaxia, not attacking the Chen Family immediately must mean they have a plan. As long as you tell us where the Corpse Demon is based, I will spare your life."

"That..." Chen Shangliang glanced at Yang Tian, but thinking of the terror of the Corpse Demon, he said with a pale face: "The Corpse Demon is even more vicious than you, if they capture me, there's nothing left for me, I'd rather stay in the Chen Family dungeon, I'll accept whatever duration!"

"Chen Shangliang, do you really want to stay in the Chen Family dungeon for life? Fine, I will grant it!" Liang Lijun said coldly: "Notify Li to come back to see her father one last time!"

Li, was Chen Shangliang's third daughter, Chen Xiaoli.

About an hour later, Chen Xiaoli hurried over.

"Grandmother, where is father?"

A clear, anxious voice sounded, a loli of only seven or eight had already run over, when she saw Chen Shangliang on the ground, her eyes filled with tears: "Father, why did you do this..."

"Xiaoli, come to grandmother."

Liang Lijun waved her hand.

The loli, Chen Xiaoli, her eyes filled with tears, first raised her head to look at Liang Lijun, her gaze then falling on the covered body not far away: "Grandmother, what is this..."

As she spoke, Chen Xiaoli had stood up, walking towards the body.

"Xiaoli, don't look, come to grandmother!"

Liang Lijun waved her hand.

But Chen Xiaoli's face suddenly turned somewhat pale, she trembled as she said: "Is she... is she my big sister..."

"Stop her quick!"

Liang Lijun hurriedly shouted.

But Chen Xiaoli had already reached the body, uncovering the cloth, seeing the dead Chen Hong, burst into tears, hugging the body tightly, the suppressed atmosphere unbearable: "Wuwu... big sister, don't die... we still have to find mother..."

The hall filled with cries.

Liang Lijun waved her hand, signaling someone to pull Chen Xiaoli away, but the loli refused to let go.

In this commotion, Chen Hong's corpse blood got all over Chen Xiaoli.

Her small face was covered in Chen Hong's blood.

She wiped her face of tears with her hand, crying, "Grandmother, how did big sister die? She came to school yesterday to play with me, promised to take me to Venice to see the sea, wuwu..."

"Xiaoli, you are covered in corpse blood, someone take Xiaoli and clean her up!"

Liang Lijun waved her hand.

But Chen Xiaoli broke away from the two attendants, approaching Chen Shangliang: "Father, how did big sister die? Let's go find mother now, she must know how big sister died..."

"It's useless, Xiaoli, father wants you and your second sister to live well."

Chen Shangliang hugged Chen Xiaoli, wiping the blood off her face.

"Wuwu..."

Chen Xiaoli snuggled tightly into Chen Shangliang's embrace.

"Chen Shangliang, now I give you one more chance, if you tell us where the Corpse Demon is, I will deprive you of the Chen Family name and banish you, you won't face the Chen Family's punishment!"

Madam Chen suddenly said sternly.

"No... if I go out, they'll surely kill me... I'd rather stay in the Chen Family dungeon... they're inhumane... all beasts..." Chen Shangliang shook his head desperately, as he spoke, he shouted angrily at Yang Tian: "Yang Tian, if you want to find the Corpse Demon, find them yourself, don't drag me down with you, I'd rather kill myself than offend those beasts!"

Yang Tian's expression was cold.

"In that case, it is decided! Someone, escort him to the Chen Family dungeon!"

Madam Chen commanded sternly.

At once, several attendants approached, taking Chen Shangliang towards the Chen Family dungeon.

But at this moment, Chen Xiaoli did not cry, instead, she gazed blankly in the direction where Chen Shangliang disappeared, then stood up and approached Yang Tian: "The Corpse Demon you're talking about, are they the ones with little horns on their heads? I know where their lair is, I can take you to find them, but you must release my father!"
