The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife Chapter 1774: Repelling the Monsters

Ye Shikai leapt up and glided through the air for a distance. Honestly, he was still worried; if he got caught by the suction, he would plummet into the endless abyss, or maybe a big monster would jump out and swallow him whole...

Bang.

His feet landed, and Ye Shikai felt his legs finally on solid ground, sighing with relief. The suction from the abyss had disappeared. The Blade Soul was right; when these monsters come out in full force, the suction also disappears. Only then could he proceed.

"Blade Soul, you’re truly amazing." Ye Shikai was very grateful to the Blade Soul. Without it, he might not have made it across. The Blade Soul’s understanding of this place far surpassed his expectations.

"Actually, it’s not difficult. The Heavenly Chasm is hard to cross and guarded by beasts, but it’s not impossible to pass. It always has its weaknesses. But if I hadn’t been attacked by them last time, I wouldn’t have discovered that the suction from the abyss comes from the monsters themselves," the Blade Soul explained.

"Alright, now that you’re leading ahead of these families, it’s better to move quickly," the Blade Soul reminded.

"Agreed, I need to hurry." If Ye Shikai wanted to be the first to enter, he had to strike first. This time he smoothly crossed the Heavenly Chasm, largely benefiting from the cultivator families. Though not entirely honorable, that’s competition; there are no rules. Moreover, his actions were at most exploiting a situation; Ye Shikai dusted off his clothes and continued up the mountain.

Meanwhile, beside the Heavenly Chasm, tens of thousands of monsters were still charging at the families’ Big Formation of cultivators. But this was a formation created by tens of thousands of cultivators, with over thirty Body Integration Realm, several hundred Divine Separation, and over a thousand Out-of-Body Stage cultivators. It’s no exaggeration to describe it as impregnable.

Soon the monster corpses piled up like a mountain, yet the formation remained sturdy. Without destroying the Array Eye, breaking the formation aimlessly was difficult.

"Everyone hang in there; these monsters can’t keep charging forever," Zheng Li shouted. Although he maintained the energy flow of the formation, such a massive array still required everyone to give their all. Over time, Inner Strength consumption naturally wasn’t small.

Twenty minutes later.

The monster’s charging force seemed to decrease significantly, and their numbers dwindled considerably. Naturally, the corpses had already piled a person high...

"Advance," Zheng Li commanded, and everyone began to slowly move forward. The light wall of the formation started pushing forward, and those monsters, unable to resist, could only retreat.

"Look, these monsters are retreating."

"Yes, Family Head Zheng really has a way."

"Great."

Seeing this, everyone was very pleased. Even monsters had their setbacks; soon, in the face of powerful forces, these monsters could only retreat step by step.

Roar roar.

Suddenly, the monsters let out eerie roars. Some monsters moved forward, carrying the corpses of their dead companions backward with their mouths, throwing them into the abyss. The remaining monsters also retreated, climbing back into the abyss.

"Look, they’re retreating, great."

"We can move forward now."

Soon afterward, the remaining monsters withdrew completely back into the abyss, taking the corpses with them, leaving not a single one behind...

"Dissolve the formation."

With Zheng Li’s command, all the families began to withdraw and dissolve the formation. Everyone sighed with relief, appearing as if the monsters were driven off by them.

"Family Head Zheng is indeed brilliant, setting up the formation, driving these monsters off in no time."

"Yes, and not even one person was lost. If Family Head Zheng had acted earlier, we wouldn’t have lost so many people last time."

Several family heads praised him, even the always aloof Ji Qian was shocked. Zheng Li could control such a big formation alone, proving he wasn’t an ordinary person. She considered herself proficient in arrays, but compared to Zheng Li, she felt insignificant.

"This time, I owe it to all of you. If it weren’t for the twenty-eight families working together sincerely, Zheng couldn’t have achieved this alone," Zheng Li attributed the success to everyone, earning goodwill for the Zheng family. He was the hero of the moment; without Zheng Li, they might not have succeeded.

"Alright, everyone, we’re short on time, let’s move ahead quickly."

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

"Master, we obtained information about this small path secretly; it bypasses the Heavenly Chasm directly." Meanwhile, a team had already bypassed through an unmanned small path from the mountains. The road was narrow, only two people could walk side by side, whereas those families had dozens, hundreds, taking the highway, naturally missing this path.

"Feng Ling, you’ve done well. Taking this path allows us to avoid many troubles." Chen Yuxin smiled faintly.

"The key is, we’ve already managed to get ahead of them. This way, the treasures in the Kunlun Secret Realm will be all Family Head’s," Chen Ruoya added beside her.

"Zheng Li isn’t an ordinary person; even our ancestors said he’s a tough guy hiding his abilities. Since he is confident in uniting the families, he surely has his methods." Chen Yuxin’s face turned grim, "We should hurry and move ahead."

"Yes."

"Yes."

Chen Yuxin urged everyone to quicken their pace, not noticing there was a ’tail’ at the end of their team.

"So, the Netherworld Empress is taking the small path, no wonder it’s so mysterious, staying at the back," Nightmare said coldly.

"I bet this must be a shortcut, perhaps helping us catch up to the Moon God," Wang Kai stated firmly. Chen Yuxin chose to stay behind on the small path, meaning the path must be valuable. However, she wouldn’t suspect that the Three Temples’ people were right behind them.

"Let’s hurry and follow them."

"Okay."

"Wait a minute," Wang Kai suddenly gestured to stop, and everyone crouched down immediately.

"They’ve stopped moving."

Everyone peeked ahead, watching the Chen family’s team suddenly stop, puzzled by the sight.

"Could it be... we’ve been discovered?" Nightmare asked.

"Possibly. Everyone, prepare yourselves," Ghost instructed as they clutched their weapons. Uncertain of Chen Yuxin’s intentions, but Chen Yuxin wanted to eliminate Ghost’s group, it wasn’t a recent notion.

"They don’t seem to have noticed us. If they had, they would have come by now." The team, seeing no movement, all sighed with relief.

"Look, look, the team is moving again."

"Alright, let’s hurry and follow them."

Chen family.

"Master, there’s a team following us."

"Which family?" Chen Yuxin asked.

"They’re well hidden, can’t identify them for now."
