The Beautiful CEO’s Dragon Blood Bodyguard

Chapter 1257: Chapter 1257: Burial Ground

Tianzhu Mountain is truly a strange place, even its geomagnetic pull behaves peculiarly.

The higher you go, the greater the geomagnetic force becomes.

Walking up feels like your legs are weighed down by lead, each step heavier, each climb more exhausting.

Those chasing Long Fei had dispersed by the time they reached fifteen hundred meters altitude—some racing ahead, others lagging behind.

Long Fei sat on the mountain trail, smoking a cigarette, silently marveling at the tenacity of those who had paved this narrow, sinuous path on such a steep and unyielding terrain.

The trail spiraled upward, winding toward the clouds, as if it truly led to the celestial Immortal Realm above.

By the time he finished his cigarette, only about a dozen cultivators had caught up, grumbling as they ascended. “Isn’t this brat supposed to be done for? How’s he running faster than a rabbit?”

“He’s merely a spent arrow, fleeing with no other option. We’ll catch him soon, and that magical treasure and those pills will be ours.”

“If Medicine King Valley seizes this heaven-sent opportunity, we’ll rise to prominence in no time, finally escaping Wudang’s control. Year after year, we offer tributes to Wudang—how much do we even keep for ourselves?”

“Of course, this opportunity belongs to you, Valley Master!”

They climbed together, navigating a section of mountain path, where they suddenly caught sight of Long Fei.

This was truly a case of “look up and he’s right there, look down and he’s still in sight.” The path was only as wide as a single foot, barely enough for two people to pass side by side.

Long Fei glanced at them, shook his head, and chuckled, “With speed like that, you think you can snatch my opportunity?”
