The Beautiful Boss's Personal Bodyguard
Chapter 540 - 539

Chapter 540: 539

Looking at this, if it happened again, he really might end up dead. Forget it, forget it, he’s already been showy enough, better to quit while ahead! Ye Tian took the opportunity while the huge beast was still catching its breath, hurriedly retreated two steps backwards, and distanced himself from that beast.

The Vajra Ring could block one attack, but if it came again, it seemed a bit forced. One gamble was enough, to gamble again would be foolish.

Dispelling the Vajra Ring surrounding himself, Ye Tian shook his body; although the light ring had shielded him, that previous claw attack had still impacted his body. Although it hadn’t made him spew blood, the massive vibration wasn’t something to be laughed off.

Seeing Ye Tian unharmed, the Esoteric Master on the outskirts breathed a sigh of relief, and his hand which was already holding the white rod also relaxed, it seemed this young one still had some abilities.

"State Preceptor, isn’t this a bit too harsh?"

Ye Tian glanced at the still roaring giant beast, and again at Shangjia Moti standing behind him, continuously uttering spells to urge the beast forward.

"It’s just a simple exchange, are you scared to continue?"

Shangjia Moti’s eyes flickered with slyness and viciousness, wishing nothing more than for Ye Tian to be dead. No, not dead—this young one’s physique was good, wouldn’t it be better if he could be turned into a walking corpse?

Thinking this, the gloom in his eyes grew more intense, as if he already saw a body walking over there, tempting him to go and harvest. Both hands placed across his chest were forming various Dharma Seals, his ten fingers non-stop changing the seals, and as the seals in his hands continuously shifted, the distant Gu beast also began accumulating energy, ready to pounce at the opportune moment.

Suddenly, Shangjia Moti shouted loudly, and at the same time, the Dharma Seal formed by his two palms instantaneously pointed towards Ye Tian in front of him. The giant beast charged forward immediately, its fangs and claws visibly dripping with black venomous fluid.

This time, it seems it was a fight to the death.

The beast charged with a whirlwind, making Ye Tian feel as if his face was being scraped painfully by the wind, akin to the chilling wind of late autumn and winter, sharp as knives.

Such momentum, truly lavish. Ye Tian knew his own strength all too well; he couldn’t compare with the grand State Preceptor, not to mention this undead creature in front of him. The only option left now was to dodge. That was what Ye Tian was thinking, and what he indeed did; without waiting for the beast to charge closer, Ye Tian immediately dashed to the side—in short, he ran away.

Seeing Ye Tian starting to flee, those standing around the periphery guessed that perhaps the previous act was just a means to put up a bold front. Now that his only little trick was exhausted, all that was left was to run for his life. Everyone present held some status and position; though they roughly guessed what had happened, no one mocked Ye Tian in this situation. The only expressions conveyed were through their eyes—but from everyone’s current look, it seemed they weren’t very optimistic about the cheerfully running Ye Tian.

The range of the Barrier is vast, a full five miles around, which was enough for Ye Tian to come and go, yet if he keeps struggling like this, he will eventually be worn down to death by that Gu beast pursuing him from behind.

This isn’t a solution!

While trying to escape, Ye Tian spotted Shangjia Moti still chanting incessantly and became furious. Here I am, being chased by this beast to the point of exhaustion, and you’re just there leisurely chanting, how does that make any sense!

As Ye Tian was running in a straight line, he suddenly made a swift turn, causing the pursuing Gu beast behind him, unable to turn in time, to be thrown far away by its own inertia. However, the expected gap didn’t widen much because the Gu beast didn’t turn back; instead, its body disintegrated into countless dense worms, which then recombined reversing head to tail, instantly reformed into a soaring eagle, flapping its wings as it flew over, diving from the sky, its malevolence casting a shadow as vast as heavens!

Ye Tian cursed inwardly, but his body reacted quickly, still charging towards Shangjia Moti.

I don’t believe you’d dare let your body stay under that eagle! Ye Tian charged straight towards the upright-standing Shangjia Moti, ignoring the eagle diving from above. Just as he was about to get close to the man, a colorful snake as thick as an arm burst forth from the ground, the sound of tearing earth like a heavy hammer hitting a drum, painfully shaking Ye Tian’s eardrums. The snake, with its dripping venom, struck at Ye Tian like lightning, a foul smell assaulting his nostrils. Ye Tian instinctively dodged his neck, and in that instant, a chill brushed past his neck.

A layer of cold sweat covered Ye Tian!

If he had been any slower, the snake’s venomous fangs would have certainly bitten his neck, and then it wouldn’t just be a mere game, it would have cost him his life. With a flip, Ye Tian once again widened the distance and then it was time for a desperate escape again, only this time, it was not just a tiger chasing him but also a giant eagle, along with venomous snakes occasionally popping up from the ground.

Having just barely escaped from the Ghost Gate, Ye Tian finally began to treat this contest seriously, though he still felt somewhat aggrieved up to now, wondering who he had offended to deserve everyone wanting him dead.

No one had expected that this State Preceptor from Thailand would be so formidable. It had always been said in the worldly society that Thailand’s Tame Head surpassed the Gu Technique, especially the ancient traditional All Things Birth Gu Technique used by the older generation which was almost completely extinct, seemingly on the verge of disappearance. Now it seems, if nothing goes wrong, that this man is definitely a towering figure in Thailand for the next fifty years, and if nurtured effectively, the disciples trained by this old fellow would indeed be figures of great renown.

Sometimes, the strength of something really doesn’t depend on the number of people but on the number of key figures.

The move displayed by Shangjia Moti was truly dazzling.

However, this dazzling display had made Ye Tian suffer a lot.

He had to fend against the constant diving attacks of the eagle, and also deal with soil creatures that emerged from the ground or condensed from the surrounding soil. These were not actually dust particles of the soil, but rather the microorganisms hidden within it.
