The Playboy Bodyguard of the Beautiful CEO-Chapter 535 - 437: Why Is He So Good to Me (Second Update)
"Witch, I beg you, spare us! We've followed you for half a month. Even if there is no merit, there has been hard work."
Wang Jie let out a shrill cry.
"Hmph." The witch sneered coldly, "A bunch of useless fools, daring to talk affection with me? Ridiculous beyond measure!"
The witch waved her hand.
Whoosh.
Wang Jie's soul and the souls of the other two began to burn intensely.
From their heads, pure white silver threads rapidly emerged, continuously flowing out from their heads.
In no time, Wang Jie and the other two were lifeless.
Their faces pale, still as if they were dead.
And their souls were completely drawn out into threads, hanging around Wang Jie and the two others.
"Witch, you will die a terrible death... a terrible death..."
Echoing roars came from those pure white corpse threads, reverberating through the forest.
The witch sneered coldly, "A mere three useless fools, not worthy of pity in death; in front of demonic techniques, you must all die for me! In this world, only power is the true path. If I successfully cultivate both demonic and divine techniques, I can achieve ascension to immortality!"
Saying this, the witch's figure flickered and disappeared.
Soon, the surrounding area turned dead silent.
Only Wang Jie and the other two sat there motionlessly.
Their lives sealed off, and their souls drawn into silver-white corpse threads, hanging in the forest.
...…
Yang Tian ventured deeper into the forest, searching for the figure of Xue.
But after searching for a while, he still found nothing.
He stopped, thinking of turning back.
Then, a gentle voice filled with emotion sounded from ahead, "Yang Tian, why are you here..."
"Xue..."
Yang Tian turned his head and saw Xue.
He ran his Divine Sense over Xue and then walked up to her, holding Xue tightly in his arms.
For some reason, this time, Yang Tian felt Xue's body tremble for a moment.
Though very slight, Yang Tian noticed it.
He looked up at Xue, and in her eyes, he saw an expression.
This expression was somewhat complex.
It seemed to have disappointment, happiness, joy, and an indescribable emotion.
Yet Yang Tian spoke earnestly, "Xue, what on earth happened? Why are you still here? Where is the witch?"
"The witch got into trouble, Wang Jie and the other two are not dead, they've come back for revenge, the witch's soul has scattered, I am a fragment of her soul and managed to escape." Xue said worriedly, "For the witch to survive, she must cultivate the main body of the demonic technique successfully, so she will come back for you as soon as possible. Only by killing you can she break the emotional barrier in her heart."
"Emotional barrier?"
Yang Tian asked.
"That's right, an emotional barrier!" Xue said, "Because I fell in love with you, and the witch merged with my memory and experience, she naturally fell in love with you too, which affects her cultivation of the demonic technique's main body. So she must kill you!"
"Where is the witch now?"
Yang Tian asked.
"Follow me..."
Xue said, and flew forward.
Yang Tian followed Xue, operating his Divine Sense, probing into Xue.
He was unsure inside, wondering if this was the real Xue.
So he used his Divine Sense to probe into Xue.
Soon, Yang Tian confirmed that the girl in front was indeed a soul fragment.
If she is a soul fragment, then she should be Xue.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two flew swiftly forward, and after half an hour, they arrived in a forest.
And in the forest, three men sat stiffly, precisely Wang Jie and the other two.
Previously, Yang Tian had been here once.
Hence, Yang Tian knew that Wang Jie and the two had no vitality, their souls seemed utterly drained.
"Xue, what's with Wang Jie and the other two?"
Yang Tian asked.
Xue's eyes flashed with a trace of fierce light: "These three wanted to oppose the witch, but they were no match, and could only rely on cunning to severely wound the witch's soul."
"Are Wang Jie and the others dead?"
Yang Tian operated his Divine Sense, probing into Wang Jie and the other two.
On Wang Jie and the others, he still felt nothing.
"Not entirely!" Xue said coldly, "These silver-white corpse threads you see are what Wang Jie and the others' souls have turned into."
"Oh? To kill them, does one have to destroy these silver-white corpse threads completely?"
Yang Tian suddenly looked at Xue.
"That's right."
Xue nodded.
Yang Tian was somewhat puzzled; he used his Divine Sense again to probe into Xue, confirming that Xue was truly a soul fragment, he nodded: "Xue, since you are a soul fragment, it's not suitable for you to act. Step back and let me handle it."
"Alright."
Xue nodded and stepped back.
Yang Tian didn't notice it, but at this moment, Xue's eyes were filled with hesitation.
In fact, Xue is the Witch.
Everything she did was just to lure Yang Tian here.
If she wanted to kill Yang Tian, she must break the Demon Technique Emotion Body on him.
And to break Yang Tian's Demon Technique Emotion Body, a strong soul attack was necessary. The souls of Wang Jie and his two companions were powerful enough that if everything went smoothly, Yang Tian would die today.
However, for some reason, the thought of killing Yang Tian filled the Witch's heart with a complex emotion.
She had fallen in love with Yang Tian just a day ago, and now she had to kill him?
But if she didn't kill Yang Tian, the Witch couldn't successfully cultivate the main body of the Demonic Technique and would be unable to achieve Ascension to Immortality.
All of this was crumbling in the Witch's mind.
As she watched Yang Tian step by step walking towards Wang Jie and his companions, her emotions became even more complex. She knew that once Yang Tian entered the array, it would be his death sentence.
As soon as Yang Tian touched Wang Jie and his two companions, the Soul Array formed by their souls would devour Yang Tian.
In this way, Yang Tian was destined to die.
Yet a trace of hesitation appeared in the Witch's heart.
But this hesitation wouldn't last long.
The Witch finally decided to kill Yang Tian, so she could succeed in cultivating the Demonic Technique and achieve Ascension to Immortality.
Just then, Yang Tian suddenly shouted: "Xue, step back immediately, Wang Jie and the others are not dead yet; they've condensed their souls into the ground!"
"Oh?"
The Witch probed with her Divine Sense, her expression turning cold: "Wang Jie, you court death!"
"Hahahaha!" A wild laugh erupted from the ground: "Witch, you were unkind to us three, so we will repay your unkindness. Didn't you want to seal our souls and then have Yang Tian destroy us? But we've condensed our souls into the ground, waiting for this moment."
"Three useless wretches, you are not my match!"
The Witch sneered coldly.
"We don't need to fight you. Instead, we'll perish together with you!"
A series of wild roars rang out.
Upon hearing this, the Witch's expression turned grim. She knew that Wang Jie and his companions intended to use their souls to conduct Spirit Breaking!
The three of them were already terrifying existences.
Once they conducted Spirit Breaking, the power would be earth-shattering.
By then, if the Witch wasn't dead, she'd also suffer complete loss of power.
"Witch, what's happening?"
Yang Tian asked in a deep voice.
He wasn't stupid. Hearing the conversation between the Witch and Wang Jie and his companions, he understood that the woman in front was not Xue but the Witch.
"Yang Tian..."
The Witch hesitated to speak.
But Wang Jie laughed heartily: "Yang Tian, you've been used by the Witch. She led you here to kill you so she could cultivate the Demonic Technique!" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
Yang Tian clenched his fists and looked coldly at the Witch.
The Witch remained icy in expression, neither confirming nor denying.
"How utterly ridiculous!"
Yang Tian laughed with nothing but a cold smile.
"Hahahaha, Yang Tian, do you also want to kill her? Then watch closely..." Wang Jie and his companions shouted crazily: "Witch, die with us! Spirit Breaking!"
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The sound of three explosions echoed as the souls of Wang Jie and his companions shattered at this moment, transforming into a massive Spiritual Breath, attacking the Witch fiercely.
The Witch frowned, about to flee.
But her face fell when she realized, at some point, the array she had set up had been activated.
Moreover, this array had formed right under her feet.
In an instant, the Witch understood: "You indeed went to great lengths to kill me!"
"Die!"
Wang Jie roared, and the three enormous Spiritual Breath streams lashed out at the Witch.
At this moment, a hint of unwillingness flashed in the Witch's eyes.
"Three old fools, you dare act recklessly before me?"
But just then, a shout from Yang Tian echoed; the Witch looked up and saw a scene that would be etched in her memory for life.
Yang Tian bit his fingertip and sprayed out blood.
The blood splattered ahead, forming a colossal protective shield.
Yang Tian used his own body and blood to block Wang Jie and his companions' powerful post-Spirit Breaking attack.
In that instant, the Witch's heart ached: "He knows I want to kill him, so why is he still saving me?"
Her heart throbbed painfully.
The Witch clutched her chest tightly.
She knelt on one knee, gazing up at Yang Tian, who was battling against the Spiritual Breath formed by Wang Jie and his companions' Spirit Breaking.
For some unknown reason, her heart hurt deeply, deeply.
At that moment, the emotional barrier within the Witch's heart intensified wildly.
The intense emotional barrier drove the Demonic Technique within the Witch's body.
With that, the Witch succeeded in cultivating the Demonic Technique.
That's right, the Witch succeeded in cultivating the Demonic Technique at that moment, realizing the truth in the emotional barrier...
