The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife Chapter 1780: Rescued

The blizzard was too intense, with Snow Demons everywhere in the sky. No one could see clearly who was hundreds of meters away, only that those Snow Demons were constantly circling in the air before swooping down to attack.

"There really is someone," Chen Yuxin nodded slightly. From a distance, one could vaguely see a human silhouette, which surprised her. The Chen family had taken an unpopulated road to avoid the Heavenly Chasm, and they should have been a day’s journey ahead of the other families. Yet, how could someone have arrived even earlier than the Chen family?

"Family Head, it seems that someone has arrived earlier than us, but why is there only one person?" Chen Ruoya said lightly.

"I’m also puzzled. Which family doesn’t have hundreds or thousands of people? Even if someone really did get ahead of us, it couldn’t possibly be just one person, right?" Chen Yuxin’s expression was grave. Could it be that there were others lurking around?

"Everyone, be careful and pay attention to the surroundings. Feng Ling, Xue Ming, each of you take a hundred people and search along the sides to see if there are any ambushing people nearby."

"Yes, Master."

"Understood."

"Family Head, should we go assist the person up ahead?" Chen Ruoya asked in return.

"No need to concern ourselves," Chen Yuxin ordered.

"Look at that person ahead, surrounded by so many monsters, yet still holding on for so long. It seems they are quite capable," Chen Yuxin said calmly. Fifteen minutes had passed, and that person up ahead was still managing to hold on, even advancing forward.

"Master, we searched the surrounding area and found no ambushers; it really is just that one person up ahead," Feng Ling led the people back to report.

"Family Head, since there’s no ambush nearby, let’s hurry over there."

"Alright, everyone get ready to move out."

At the same time.

Ye Shikai stood amidst the blizzard, wielding You Xi, slashing at the Snow Demons diving down. The Fire Element could indeed repel most of them, but the fierce wind made it difficult for him to move. If this continued, once his Inner Strength was depleted, he would be finished.

"You brat, hurry and get out of here."

"No, I can’t retreat now. If I leave now, I won’t have another chance to get through," Ye Shikai insisted on not leaving.

"Watch out behind you."

Ah.

Ye Shikai turned abruptly, but it was a little too late. A Snow Demon had circled behind him, and unable to dodge, a blood-red line marked his left arm as blood flowed, staining his clothes.

The blood stood out starkly on the snowy ground. Ye Shikai pulled out a cloth to bandage the wound, gritting his teeth as he continued forward. The sight of blood was like a scent to sharks in the ocean for the Snow Demons, spurring them into a frenzy as they dove down at him.

"Fight again," Ye Shikai’s sword met the diving Snow Demons, slicing them in half instantly.

Bam.

Suddenly, a stone flew from the blizzard, incredibly fast. Preoccupied with the battle, Ye Shikai had no time to react, and the stone struck him straight in the forehead.

In an instant, Ye Shikai couldn’t even feel pain, only a dizzying sensation, as if his strength was leaving him, and he collapsed to the ground.

It’s over, am I going to die again?

Blood flowed from his forehead, but strangely, the Snow Demons didn’t seize the moment to kill him. They all stopped and flew away after seeing Ye Shikai lying motionless on the ground.

Ye Shikai felt a wave of dizziness, and soon he completely passed out.

On the other side of Kunlun Mountain.

"Watch out, someone’s nearby," Ghost suddenly called out, and Nightmare, Illusion Fox, and Wang Kai immediately halted, hiding in the nearby bushes as a group of people walked past.

"Damn it, what kind of ghost place is this? It’s freezing," Tang Nie complained.

"Second Young Master, put on another layer quickly."

"Alright, alright, let’s hurry up. Who knows what treasures are hidden in Kunlun Mountain."

The four of them waited until the people in front had all passed before emerging from the bushes. Their numbers were too few, and Ghost didn’t want to risk contact with others.

"That group just now was from the Tang Family in Chang’an. It looks like the other families are coming too." Nightmare had faced the Tang Family before at Bai Qi’s Relics and recognized them at a glance.

"If they’d seen us just now, we would have been in a bad way."

"Do we have to hide like street rats now, sneaking around?" Wang Kai was a little angry. The once-mighty Three Temples had been a force no one dared to oppose, but now they had to live by hiding.

"Times change. If we want to turn the situation around, we must find Boss. Only with him can we fight back against Doris. Since the decline of the Three Temples, Doris’s Sea King Hall has been aiming to unify the Main God Realm," Ghost reassured him. People can’t always be lucky, and the Three Temples had glorious moments, but they also had their days of decline. However, he believed that as long as Ye Shikai was around, they still had a chance to counterattack.

"Alright, for the chance in the future, I’ll hold my breath for now."

"Okay, let’s get going too, don’t fall behind."

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

"Where am I?" After an unknown length of time, Ye Shikai finally awoke. It felt like he had a dream, but as soon as he opened his eyes, he forgot its content.

It was dark around him, with faint lights here and there. Looking up, it seemed to be a cave; rocks above and a fire burning nearby, making it less cold. He even had two blankets over him and bandages on his head. What exactly was this place?

"Kai, you’re finally awake," a familiar voice sounded. Ye Shikai looked toward the door as Chen Yuxin hurriedly came in, approaching the bedside.

"You suffered a head injury. Rest here and drink some hot water," Chen Yuxin offered a bowl of hot water, but Ye Shikai pushed it away.

"Move aside, I’m fine," Ye Shikai’s tone was cold. He remembered that during the fight with the Snow Demons, a stone hit him in the head, and he passed out. But unexpectedly, the one who saved him was Chen Yuxin.

"Kai, your head injury is serious. If I hadn’t happened to find you, you’d be dead. Rest more, and I’ll handle everything else."

"How long was I unconscious?" Ye Shikai asked.

"About three hours."

"That long? No, I have to leave now." Ye Shikai insisted on getting out of bed. Chen Yuxin tried to stop him, clamping her hands on his wrists.

"Kai, your Inner Strength..." Chen Yuxin suddenly realized, feeling reluctant to face it. After all, she was the one who had personally destroyed Ye Shikai’s Dantian.

"I don’t want to explain that now, let go of me first," Ye Shikai broke free forcefully, quickly put on his coat, and prepared to leave.
