The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife Chapter 1764: Heavenly Chasm

"Why don’t we go down the mountain first, buy some supplies, and then come back up?"

"I’m afraid that’s not possible. If we leave the relic now, we might not be able to enter again. Besides, going down the mountain to buy supplies and then coming back up would take at least two or three days, by which time other clans would have already reached the summit," Nightmare shook his head and said.

"What should we do, then? Going up the mountain like this, we’ll freeze to death at night."

"The only way is to rely on stealing," Nightmare had barely finished speaking when everyone showed cunning smiles. Although it wasn’t very honorable, wasn’t this how the clans came to Kunlun Mountain? To snatch cultivation resources, they were even willing to kill, let alone rob supplies.

"I’m ready," Wang Kai said, covering his face with a black cloth, looking like a "robber."

"Although I don’t mind leaving my name, this is Kunlun Mountain after all; it’s better to keep a low profile," Wang Kai explained. Unexpectedly, after coming to Kunlun, instead of finding treasures, they became "bandits."

"That’s true, but the relationships among the major clans here are deeply intertwined. While I’m not afraid of making enemies, I worry it might trouble Lord Moon God, so we should avoid taking lives if possible. Once we have enough supplies, we’ll head up the mountain immediately."

"Okay."

"Agreed."

An hour later.

"Who are you people, do you know who we are?"

"I don’t care who you are," Wang Kai said, looking at the supplies they snatched, feeling smug. In just an hour, they had found three waves of "prey." Faced with the elite of the Three Temples, they had almost no power to resist. Usually, when encountering opponents far more powerful than themselves, they wouldn’t even have time to react before losing their lives. But fortunately, the Three Temples members didn’t take their lives, only robbing them of food and tents. Although these people were verbally unwilling, they were inwardly relieved, at least preserving their lives.

"We belong to the Gongsun Family; don’t be too arrogant."

"I don’t care which family you belong to. If you’re dissatisfied, call your head over here. I’m still thinking we have too little food, bring some more."

"If you don’t leave now, we’ll take your lives too," Demoness said coldly, which made this group hurriedly leave, their eyes full of vigilance. They were just ordinary guards in their family, and in Kunlun Mountain, a place full of hidden talents, almost anyone’s strength was enough to take their lives.

"Ghost, what should we do next?" Nightmare asked, as Ghost was the Brain of the Netherworld Palace. After losing his memory, he became a couple with Gu Xin from the East Sea, and even took on a new name, Gu Li. He ordinarily wouldn’t have come, but to find clues that could help locate Ye Shikai, he came resolutely with the members of the Three Temples.

"We now have over twenty packs of compressed biscuits, some water, and five tents. That should suffice. It’s getting late; we should start climbing and try to find a cave to camp in."

"Alright."

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

Ye Shikai climbed the mountain with the Li Family’s team and saw many clans gathered not far away, numbering in the thousands.

"Senior Li, what happened up front? Why are so many people gathered there?" Ye Shikai asked.

"Well... I don’t know either, but something must be happening. Everyone be careful," Li Changtian replied, not knowing what the situation was, but it probably wasn’t anything good.

As everyone slowly moved forward, Ye Shikai finally saw the situation ahead clearly.

"Oh, damn."

Ye Shikai couldn’t help but curse. Ahead was not anything else but a "Heavenly Chasm," more accurately, a deep trench or precipice, bottomless, pitch-black, and spanning about a hundred meters wide.

"Such a distance, how do we get across?" Ye Shikai also felt a headache. Although a ladder might reach, who would carry a ladder car around? Plus, Ye Shikai’s storage ring didn’t have one.

Although cultivators could achieve the effect of "Qinggong," leaping such a great distance was beyond the ability of most.

"Senior Li, this Heavenly Chasm is about a hundred meters long; trying to leap across would be very difficult."

"Yes, you’re right. Unless one has extremely high cultivation or is very skilled at Qinggong, it would be impossible to cross. Let’s see if there’s another way around," Li Changtian replied with a worried expression. They had come to Kunlun Mountain with great effort, and no one wanted to leave empty-handed.

"Okay." While searching for a path, Ye Shikai also looked for the Ji Family members, but unfortunately, the Ji Family hadn’t arrived yet, though the Tang Family was already here. What a small world.

"Kid, pay attention to the cliff ahead," at this moment, Blade Soul suddenly reminded him.

"Is there something strange about it?"

"This cliff isn’t right; there seems to be a faint pulling force below. I can feel it. If caught by this force, you won’t be able to escape."

"Is that so?" Ye Shikai felt a bit nervous. Blade Soul never lied or joked. If it spoke of danger, it was indeed extremely dangerous.

Ye Shikai picked up a stone from the ground and threw it forward. As soon as the finger-sized stone reached the edge of the cliff, it instantly lost momentum and plummeted straight down, just like a helicopter suddenly losing power.

"It’s really true, quite terrifying," Ye Shikai muttered. Now it seemed this wasn’t just a simple precipice. He remembered facing a similar "Heavenly Chasm" in Bai Qi’s Relics, where once someone fell, there was no chance of survival.

"Everyone, please listen to me," at this moment, a man stepped forward slowly. Ye Shikai recognized him at a glance—it was Family Head Zheng from the East Sea Zheng Family, Zheng Li.

Speaking of which, he had a good relationship with the Zheng Family; he was very good friends with the eldest son of Zheng, Zheng Ji, and had collaborated with them multiple times, even helping the Zheng Family a great deal.

"So it’s Family Head Zheng,"

The Zheng Family was also very famous among the Huaxia clans, especially since they were unrivaled in the prosperous East Sea. In terms of family influence, probably none present could compare.

"Everyone, there is a ’Heavenly Chasm’ in front of us and none of us can cross it. I propose we unite and find a way to cross together, what do you think?"

"That’s a good proposal."

"Right now, we’re all at a loss. With all the Huaxia families gathered here, if we all return empty-handed due to a Heavenly Chasm, it would be a joke. Family Head Zheng is correct, let’s first get across, and we can discuss other matters once we reach the other side."
