The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife Chapter 1130: Entering the Lake to Rescue

"Zhang Lin, what do you mean by that?" Soul Destroyer hurriedly asked. He heard the implication in Zhang Lin’s words that this water element might be the key to rescuing Demoness.

"Yes, could it be... this water element can resist the Cold Lake’s chilling force?" Ji Qian quickly asked. If Demoness had indeed fallen into the lake, even with deep inner strength, she would turn into a "popsicle" in at most half an hour, so they really didn’t have much time left.

"I heard from my family that the Cold Lake possesses an ultimate coldness that can freeze everything in the world. But everything has its counterbalance. This water element is a treasure of Atlantis. It also possesses an ultimate coldness. Perhaps the water element can absorb the cold energy from the Cold Lake. If that’s the case, we can find Lord Demoness." Zhang Lin carefully analyzed.

"Then what are we waiting for? Hurry and go down." Soul Destroyer turned and looked at Ji Qian, "Lord Moon God, I want to save Demoness’s life, but I need to use the water element."

"No." Ji Qian shook her head.

"Lord Moon God, a life is at stake, and besides, she is my..."

"No, you stay here, I’ll go down to rescue her." Just as Soul Destroyer was about to "explode" in anger, Ji Qian’s words left everyone in silence...

"No, Lord Moon God, in terms of both emotion and reason, it should be me going down. I am her boyfriend, and you still have to find the Boss." Soul Destroyer’s head shook like a rattle. The terror of the Cold Lake was no less than volcanic lava. Zhang Lin’s words were just a hypothesis. Whoever went down might not come back up. Among everyone, Soul Destroyer was the most concerned about Demoness, so in everyone’s eyes, Soul Destroyer was the one most likely and eager to save Demoness.

"The use of the water element can’t be leveraged with just inner strength. Your constitution is masculine, while the water element’s attribute is cold and feminine. You can’t control it. Only I can use it here." Ji Qian said lightly, and everyone exchanged looks. Soul Destroyer wanted to speak, but the words stuck in his throat. Indeed, the inner strength cultivated by Soul Destroyer was aggressive and dominating, contrary to the water element’s attribute. Not to mention whether he could use the water element well, if he didn’t know how to harness it, he might even be counterattacked by the water element’s coldness.

"But what about the Lord’s side..."

"Don’t worry, I’ll be fine."

"Lord, let me replace you and go down." Selena volunteered earnestly. The Cold Lake was too dangerous, and she was keen to protect her master. If Ji Qian met with misfortune, the backbone of the Moon God Temple would be gone.

"No, your inner strength isn’t deep enough, and you haven’t used the water element before." Ji Qian waved her hand in refusal, as she took out a thick rope from her gear bag and tied one end around her waist.

"If I find her, I’ll tug the rope. You can pull us up then." Ji Qian finished speaking, turned around, and jumped into the lake.

"Lord."

A splash was heard as she hit the water surface, leaving everyone helpless as she was already in the lake. All they could do was hold tightly onto the rope and anxiously wait on the shore... and silently pray for the safety of the two women.

In the Cold Lake.

Wearing diving goggles, Ji Qian was in the lake. Bai Mountain, covered in snow year-round, was freezing, and the Cold Lake was one of Bai Mountain’s cores. The underwater temperature was enough to freeze a person into a "popsicle." Ji Qian took out the water element, circulating her inner strength. The water element emitted a dazzling blue light in the Cold Lake, to the point that Ji Qian’s eyes were dazzled. The cold on her body gradually dissipated, and her movements became agile again. Zhang Lin’s analysis was correct. The water element could indeed absorb the Cold Lake’s chilling force. For the extremely cold-natured water element, the Cold Lake was a natural nurturing ground. Ji Qian dove deeper, though the lake was icy, it was clear, even crystal clear. Ji Qian endured the cold as she looked down carefully but couldn’t find a trace of Demoness. Usually, lakes had many fish or other aquatic life, even under the ice in other parts of Northeast, with many fish. But the Cold Lake was barren, without a single life form.

Demoness, where are you? Ji Qian was anxious, and after five minutes, she still couldn’t find a trace of Demoness. The Cold Lake was vast. Finding her in a short time was difficult, unless she had some life detection device, otherwise, she could only rely on her eyes.

Suddenly, a twinkling blue light appeared from the bottom of the lake. Ji Qian keenly noticed the light source. Although she couldn’t make out what it was, she had a vague premonition that the light source was connected to Demoness.

Ji Qian swam towards the light source, and when she was only twenty meters away, she finally saw it clearly. It was the white mountain snow lotus that the party had treasured, and at this moment, Demoness was clutching it tightly with her hand.

It’s Demoness.

Ji Qian felt a surge of excitement, circulating inner strength. Within a few seconds, she swam to her side and reached out both hands. Whether due to the Cold Lake’s low temperature or Demoness’s body temperature, Ji Qian felt a chill and her heart jumped. Demoness was motionless, as if unconscious. Could it be...

Ji Qian forced herself to calm down, untied the rope from her waist and tied it around both her and Demoness’s bodies. Then she tugs at the rope with all her might. A few seconds later, a force came from the other end of the rope, and Ji Qian felt a strong power pulling the two upwards. Unfortunately, she couldn’t shout in the water, she could only tightly hold Demoness, hoping her body warmth might warm her.

.....................

"Quick, save her." Ji Qian removed her diving goggles and shouted to the people on the shore.

"It’s Demoness." Soul Destroyer, upon seeing the two women, shouted excitedly, stepping directly into the lake water, forcibly pulling the two women out of the water. On the shore, Zhang Lin and Selena had already set up a fire and a tent. Ji Qian quickly entered the tent to change into dry clothes. In this weather, wearing wet clothes was more likely to cause frostbite than "not wearing clothes." Soul Destroyer held Demoness’s body and injected inner strength into her.

"What’s her condition?" Ji Qian asked.

"Demoness’s breath is weak. Soul Destroyer is trying with all his might to save her, but most of the inner strength is being repelled by Demoness’s body." Selena’s face was solemn. Demoness’s face looked pale, like a sheet of paper. If she had stayed in Cold Lake another five minutes, she might not have survived.

"No, Soul Destroyer’s inner strength is masculine, but Demoness has too much cold force within her. This way, even if Soul Destroyer’s inner strength is exhausted, it will be to no avail." Ji Qian took out the water element, placed it in front of Demoness, and circulated her inner strength, using the water element to extract the cold force from her body.
