The Playboy Bodyguard of the Beautiful CEO-Chapter 240 - 231: Ling Ying’s Bizarre (First Update)

"The array within my body is about to explode..."

Chen Zheng exclaimed with a pale face.

Immediately, beams of light burst out from Chen Zheng’s body.

These lights kept boiling, intertwining with each other, forming a bizarre array.

This array burned intensely.

Suddenly, a massive Dharma Seal emerged from within the array, pressing down heavily on Chen Zheng.

Chen Zheng’s face turned pale, his whole body trembled.

Soon, Chen Zheng revealed his true form; initially, he had the support of an array, walking naturally like a normal person.

But now, with the array dissipating externally, he returned to his previous state.

His whole body crippled, half dead.

"Turns out everything was due to the Poison Rose’s Imprisonment Array!"

Ling Ying’s face turned pale.

The Poison Rose is an Ancient Martial Artist, the Dark Organization is comprised of Ancient Martial Artists, each one is a terrifying existence.

Even just such an array is enough to instill fear.

"Yang Tian, do you have any method to prevent the array from being activated? Once the array is activated, it will be extremely painful!"

Wang Ying said with lingering fear.

"I’ll try my best!"

Yang Tian said simply, clutching a diamond that appeared in his hand.

It was the diamond from his chest.

He stepped forward to Chen Zheng, pressing the diamond down hard.

This diamond had previously absorbed the dark aura of the Dark Array, allowing it to break the Poison Rose’s Dark Array.

Yang Tian intended to use it in the same way again.

But he frowned as, this time, he couldn’t absorb any of the array’s aura from Chen Zheng.

He tried again, but still couldn’t absorb the array’s aura from Chen Zheng.

"Yang, is it not working?"

Ling Ying hurriedly asked.

"Not working..."

Yang Tian shook his head, the diamond in his hand had absorbed the dark aura, unable to absorb anymore.

Seeing Chen Zheng lying on the ground, barely alive, Yang Tian finally understood Chen Zheng’s words.

Chen Zheng had long been ninety percent dead, only a sliver of life remained.

Here, Chen Zheng could only survive relying on the array, but outside of here, he only had that last breath; in such a state, he couldn’t even go back to lead the Chen Family or survive more than half a day.

"Let’s head back first!"

Yang Tian gestured, letting Ling Ying and the others retreat.

He channeled Spiritual Breath, applying it to his palm, and lifted Chen Zheng up, walking towards the underground base.

As Chen Zheng returned, he gradually recovered.

Before long, Chen Zheng was walking freely again. He sighed deeply and said, "Yang Tian, you understand my predicament now, don’t you? I’ll never be able to leave here in my lifetime, so the matters of the Chen Family need you to handle! The Chen Family is Huaxia’s top clan, you should return to inherit power, and continue the family line!"

Yang Tian listened, but remained silent.

Originally, he came to rescue Chen Zheng, hoping Chen Zheng could return to the Chen Family.

But now, Chen Zheng was trapped here.

Even removing the Imprisonment Array from Chen Zheng, Yang Tian feared he wouldn’t make it out alive.

For five years now, Chen Zheng has been ninety percent dead, only holding onto that last breath.

Chen Zheng cannot return to the Chen Family; if Yang Tian really is a descendant of the Chen Family, he must return to inherit its power and continue the family legacy.

Yet, thinking of his mother who died miserably, a cold glint flashed in Yang Tian’s eyes.

This Chen Family is no good!

If they truly cared, would they not know Chen Zheng had a woman named Meng Bingyun?

Meng Bingyun died so long ago, if the Chen Family truly cared, wouldn’t they have found out?

Yang Tian smirked coldly.

"Yang Tian, I want to ask you to grant me a small request while we’re here!"

Chen Zheng stared earnestly at Yang Tian.

Yang Tian said indifferently, "Just say what you want!"

"I want you to go back to the Chen Family, inherit its power, and continue the family legacy!"

Chen Zheng said seriously.

"That I can’t help you with!"

Yang Tian smiled coldly and then strode forward.

Chen Zheng’s eyes behind him flashed with a dim light, he sighed softly, knowing Yang Tian might be angry with the Chen Family for not taking good care of his mother back then.

Even Chen Zheng didn’t know how Meng Bingyun died, how could the Chen Family know?

Years ago, Chen Zheng was deeply hurt by Meng Bingyun’s betrayal, which prompted him to leave her.

But now, everything has become trivial.

Chen Zheng himself is nearing the end of his life; his only wish is for Yang Tian to return to the Chen Family!

"Yang Tian, only you can save the Chen Family now! As long as you return, you’ll have power second to none, control most of Huaxia’s wealth and enjoy endless prosperity, doesn’t this tempt you at all?"

Chen Zheng looked tightly at Yang Tian.

Yang Tian smiled coldly, "To be honest, whether or not I’m part of your Chen Family hasn’t really been confirmed. There are plenty of people in this world who look similar!"

"That’s nothing to worry about, you only need to return to the Chen Family and do a genetic test!"

Chen Zheng said earnestly.

"Not interested!"

Yang Tian shook his head; now he had an idea, which was to let Chen Zheng leave here.

But Chen Zheng was already ninety percent dead.

The only possibility is to let Chen Zheng live with the Imprisonment Array out, at least giving the Chen Family some hope.

But getting Chen Zheng out, how difficult is that?

For a moment, Yang Tian was silent.

"Yang, are you thinking about how to rescue Chen Zheng?"

Ling Ying suddenly asked from beside him.

"Yes."

Yang Tian nodded.

"Oh."

Ling Ying responded softly, remaining silent, but a glint flashed in her eyes.

Because Chen Zheng was trapped by an Imprisonment Array, Yang Tian ordered everyone to rest here. He instructed Wei Leng and the others to start a fire, but he didn’t notice that Ling Ying had already entered the stone chamber beside them.

When Ling Ying sat down, she pulled out a jade talisman from her belongings.

This jade talisman was given to her by Poison Rose.

She said that if Ling Ying encountered danger, she could activate this jade talisman to connect to Poison Rose’s unique knowledge base.

To take Chen Zheng out, Ling Ying had to give it a try.

Swoosh!

Quickly, Ling Ying triggered the jade talisman she had.

A flame rapidly ignited, and the whole jade talisman was boiling.

Ling Ying calmed down and waited for something.

But at that moment, a roaring sound echoed, and a red light flashed, landing on Ling Ying.

The next second, Ling Ying began to struggle.

It seemed she wanted to force something out, but no matter how she struggled, she couldn’t break free.

Gradually, her expression changed.

Soon, she suddenly opened her eyes.

A red light flickered, and she sat there motionless, as if possessed by something...

"Where’s Ling Ying?"

Outside the stone chamber, Yang Tian noticed Ling Ying was missing. He stood up and looked around.

But he didn’t see Ling Ying.

"She’s in the stone chamber, why? After just half an hour, you miss her already?"

Wang Ying couldn’t help but comment.

Yang Tian laughed at this, wondering if President Wang had gotten feelings for him after their encounters.

Smack!

Taking advantage of the moment no one was watching, Yang Tian slapped Wang Ying’s sexy hip hard.

"You pervert!"

Wang Ying glared at Yang Tian fiercely.

"President Wang, I just smelled a strong scent of jealousy. Was it from you?"

Yang Tian said with interest.

"Who’s jealous, anyway?"

Wang Ying retorted instantly.

"If you’re not jealous, I’ll go in and be affectionate with Ling Ying right now!"

Saying that, Yang Tian began walking toward the stone chamber.

Behind him, Wang Ying suddenly became anxious. She hesitated to speak but finally said harshly, "I, the noble President, would be jealous of you? Keep dreaming!"

"Ling Ying, what are you doing here?"

Yang Tian walked into the stone chamber and found Ling Ying sitting quietly, motionless.

"Nothing, I’m tired and resting..."

Ling Ying said calmly.

Yang Tian felt something was off. He activated the X-ray Vision Technique and examined Ling Ying, finding nothing unusual. He then used Divine Sense to probe Ling Ying but still found nothing, so he nodded, "Then rest well, I’ll head out first..."

"Okay."

Ling Ying nodded, but when she turned her head, a trace of killing intent flickered in her eyes...

Yang Tian exited the stone chamber.

"Big brother, there’s trouble on Chen Zheng’s side!"

As soon as Wei Leng saw Yang Tian, he immediately approached, looking tense and said.

Upon hearing this, Yang Tian quickly walked toward Chen Zheng’s side.

When he saw the pale-faced Chen Zheng, he frowned, "Chen Zheng, weren’t you fine? How come there’s trouble again?"

Logically, since Chen Zheng returned, he should have been fine.

But now, Chen Zheng’s pale face told Yang Tian that he was on the brink of death...

"Yang Tian, there’s no use. The array on me has been triggered. In less than half a day, I’ll die..."

Chen Zheng said pale-faced.

Yang Tian frowned.

"I have one request now. I hope you can agree..."

Chen Zheng said tremblingly.

Yang Tian waved it off, knowing very well what Chen Zheng’s request was—just wanting him to return to the Chen Family.

Yang Tian shook his head. The most important thing now was to get Chen Zheng out safely.

But how to handle the Imprisonment Array on Chen Zheng and take him out safely?

Honestly, Yang Tian knew nothing about arrays; if he understood them, there might be a corresponding method...

At this moment, a light emitted from the diamond on Yang Tian’s chest.

Soon, Yang Tian was surprised to discover the dark space on the diamond had started boiling again.

At noon, this diamond absorbed the Dark Array, opening the dark space.

And now, the diamond was emitting heat.

Almost in the next second, a line of words appeared in Yang Tian’s mind: "Congratulations, you have unlocked a new skill and can now cultivate arrays!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Tian’s eyes lit up.

If he could really cultivate arrays, wouldn’t he be able to master the Imprisonment Array and take Chen Zheng out?
