The Beautiful CEO's Dragon Blood Bodyguard-Chapter 1285: Guard Against Men, Not Women

Climb High and Gaze Upon the Buddha Ladder, imbued with Buddhist blessings.

Long Fei examined closely. The Arhat Dharma Laksanas on each segment of the ladder seemed peculiar.

These laksanas could transform one’s energy. The amount of force exerted on them would be entirely returned.

Young Master Chu didn’t understand Buddhist Law and took a brute force approach upward.

Starlight shimmered in his hands as he used his family’s secret technique, Zodiacal Skyshift.

The ladder transformed his power, and he transformed the ladder’s power.

Grasping the ladder tightly, his hands and the ladder vibrated in resonance, as the two forces rapidly interchanged between him and the ladder.

Starlight gleamed, reflecting back and forth on his body.

He lifted his foot upward, stepping firmly onto the first rung of the ladder.

Everyone’s gazes were glued to Chu Feng, watching curiously.

With a whoosh of air splitting sound, he ascended the first rung and continued climbing upward.

The crowd erupted in astonishment.

Wang Jie raised his goblet and laughed loudly, "Elder Brother Chu, these skills of yours are quite remarkable indeed!"

Liuu Jiangnan smirked mischievously, "What do you think, Elder and Younger Brother Chu both have climbed. Who will Fairy Yaoji accompany tonight?"

"Disgusting!"

"Shameless!"

Ji Wanyu and Lin Shanshan both voiced their disdain, glaring at the ladder with wide eyes, thinking perhaps they could climb as well.

Long Fei chuckled silently without offering advice to Chu Feng.

He had made a pact with the Bodhi Seed not to share Buddhist Law with others.

Even if he revealed it, Chu Feng wouldn’t comprehend it immediately and would hinder his performance instead.

Speaking of Young Master Chu’s Zodiacal Skyshift technique, it was extraordinarily ingenious.

Under equivalent conditions, however much energy his opponent produced, he could filter and return it again through his body.

Among peers, using this technique rendered him virtually invincible.

However, it seemed Young Master Chu rarely used it and didn’t think much of it.

If battling those of higher cultivation stages, it might not work.

For opponents in the Nascent Soul Realm, filtering their power would overwhelm both his body and Divine Sea.

The ladder transformed his energy as he similarly adjusted the ladder’s energy, achieving balance and continuing upward ascent.

One rung, two rungs, three rungs, four rungs.

Upon reaching the ninth rung, Monk Bujie’s jaw dropped wide in disbelief, shouting urgently, "This kid, could he also be proficient in Buddhist Law?"

Monk Zhi’an of the Star of Extraterritorial Buddha Light furrowed his brows intently, his face revealing surprise as well.

Applause echoed across the crowd, as though everyone—unable to claim the prize themselves—was urging someone else to take it.

Watching Chu Feng ascend, they cheered collectively.

Seeing someone claim the goddess was preferable to watching her unattainable.

Onstage, Saintess Yaoji continued her serene melody, her composure unwavering. She seemed confident Chu Feng wouldn’t succeed.

By the midway point, beads of sweat trickled down Chu Feng’s forehead.

With a look of disbelief, he realized that with each rung ascended, the ladder’s power doubled.

At the first rung, he could still transform the energy.

By the second, the power he exerted now returned as double its original magnitude.

Upon reaching the ninth, his own energy on the ladder had been amplified ninefold.

In other words, he was battling against the strength of nine of himself.

His skin flushed red, and he seemed on the brink of being torn apart.

In a desperate bid to maintain his handsome appearance, he relinquished the climb, leaping backward and flipping midair to land back on the ship.

The crowd sighed collectively, lamenting his near success only to give up halfway.

Monk Bujie guffawed heartily, drinking wine as he declared, "I said it before, without grasping Buddhist Law, how could anyone ascend the Buddha Ladder!"

Those familiar with Chu Feng realized the truth about the ladder’s power.

The unfamiliar attempted their own climb.

Sure enough, over a hundred quickly failed, hurled backward into the water by the ladder.

Among them were geniuses from Mount Mao, Mount Shu, Wudang, and Dragon-Tiger Mountain.

The elite talents of Great Xia also took turns climbing, only to be promptly flung off.

The extraterritorial cultivators initially scoffed but met the same fate upon their turn.

Sitting in the cabin, drinking wine, Chu Feng glanced at Long Fei and remarked, "Brother Long, looks like it’s your turn to show us what you’ve got."

Long Fei laughed, addressing Murong Chong and the others, "Murong Brother, Brother Wang, Brother Liuu—why don’t you give it a try?"

The three laughed, shaking their heads, "Elder Brother Chu couldn’t manage, so there’s no point in us embarrassing ourselves."

Ji Wanyu and Lin Shanshan, intrigued, said, "What’s the harm? Let’s try it!"

"The ladder only recognizes monks. What’s the point in you two attempting?"

"Exactly—besides, even if you succeed, Saintess Yaoji won’t spend the night with you!"

Wang Jie and Liuu Jiangnan teased and taunted them with laughter.

Angered, the two women hurled peanuts at them before leaping elegantly across the water toward the shore.

The crowd, still in a state of defeat, was stunned to see someone else step forward.

Upon closer inspection, they were mesmerized by the delicate beauty of the newcomers, exclaiming, "Wow! I’ve never seen such exquisitely handsome young men in my life."

"Which family are these gentlemen from? Could they have a penchant for other men?"

"I must make their acquaintance; I think I’ve fallen for them."

"..."

Among the group, those favoring male beauty wiped their mouths in appreciation.

Ji Wanyu and Lin Shanshan overheard, rolling their eyes at the absurdity. "What manner of monsters are these people? No sense of normalcy."

The two grabbed the ladder, ascending upward, and a miracle occurred.

The ladder didn’t react in the slightest, letting them climb effortlessly.

The crowd was dumbstruck, watching the two ascend without exerting any strength.

"Seriously?!"

Wang Jie spat out his drink in disbelief.

Chu Feng cried out in shock, "Could this ladder block men but spare women?"

"What? Does the Buddhist Sect discriminate by gender? Allowing women through freely?"

Liuu Jiangnan expressed his dissatisfaction.

Murong Chong chuckled, "If I ran a monastery, I wouldn’t block women either!"

Long Fei shook his head in amusement as Ji Wanyu and Lin Shanshan ascended the ladder step by step.

The two tilted their small chins upward, smugly wiping their noses in triumph toward Long Fei and the others.

"Saintess Yaoji, we’ve made it. Hurry and chase away these men—tonight, you’ll serve the two of us!"

Ji Wanyu teased Saintess Yaoji with a playful grin.

Lin Shanshan giggled, clinging to Ji Wanyu’s arm with an air of bashful delight.

Their demeanor made the male cultivators below break out in goosebumps.

Monk Bujie burst into loud, tearful wailing, "What’s going on here? How did these two girly lads make it to the top? Just wait—I haven’t tried yet! The Saintess belongs to me, no one can take her!"

Onstage, Saintess Yaoji paused her melody, gazing at Lin Shanshan and Ji Wanyu with a smile. "Dear sisters, Heavenly Sound Workshop only entertains male guests. Sharing the same female identity as me, I must decline."

The male cultivators roared with laughter, the scene erupting in noise.

"I knew it! No young master could be that exquisitely refined. Turns out they’re girls!"

"Are you kidding me? Where did these beauties come from?!"

"Ladies, are you betrothed? I happen to be the son of the Assistant Minister of Rites. Let’s be friends!"

"Misses, they’re kicking you off. Better come down already!"

"..."

The cacophony of revelry left Ji Wanyu and Lin Shanshan flushed with embarrassment.

The two shouted back, "Fine, we’ll come down—as if we care about you lot anyway."

"This blatant preference for men over women—well, we’re too good for you anyway!"

Holding hands, they leapt gracefully downward, spinning midair with flowing robes whipping elegantly, exuding a charm that transcended mere femininity.

The male onlookers below, their eyes wide in admiration, grew even more entranced.
