Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 1368 - Greedy Houses

Zhen Dazhou relaxed once he saw how straight to the point he was- this was the type of person he liked most- people who took the money and took lives! He could cut the bullshit already, "Invincible Elder, you see, my son Yingjun had been coveting those two girls beside Lin Yi for a long time, and the things that happened were also because of those two bratty girls, so we can't just let them go…"

"Your son wants to play with those two girls, just come out and say it- stop mumbling! I'll only look to the perpetrator to seek vengeance on him, I don't care how the entire thing came to be! All I know is that this Lin Yi is the one who hurt my beloved disciple, so I'll go find him!" Wudi hmphed, "But since you're giving me ten million- it's just two girls, I'll get them for you!"

"Thank you, invincible Elder!" Dazhou said quickly.

Ten million for just two girls- this did hurt Dazhou substantially, but he didn't dare not spend this money. The reason was simple- Dazhou's son had become an eunuch because of Lin Yi, and even Zhao Yaowang's curing couldn't fix him completely.

And so, Yaowang gave an idea- they needed to find the root, and that was the fact that Yingjun had very much been coveting Mengyao and Yushu! Might as well take them and stimulate Yingjun, perhaps his desire would cure everything just like that!

For the sake of their house's future, Dazhou had to spend this money to get the two girls for his son! Curing him was the most important thing.

Wudi leaving the mountains was no secret, so House Yu, Xiao, and the hidden house Zhao and Pi were all aware of the news the moment he landed in Donghai. The other houses also knew of this news.

He was a physical practitioner, and House Wu had especially been keeping tabs on him.

"Zhishan, Jin Wudi has come to Donghai- represent House Pi and go visit him. His enemy is also our House Pi's enemy, after all, and if possible we should help him out!" House Pi's head said to his son Pi Zhishan.

"Father, Jin Wudi is but an Earth Class early phase peak physical practitioner, do we need to treat him so seriously? Even giving him a personal visit?" Zhishan said, not understanding the situation. The guy may be an Earth class, but in that sect, he was the only Earth class! It may be called a sect, but in the world of hidden houses, it was the weakest one! If it weren't for Jin Wudi, that sect would be the same as a common noble house.

"Zhishan, don't look down on this Jin Wudi. He may only be an Earth class early phase, but he has the Golden clock armor, protecting his entire body! Even I can't do anything to him- with his Golden clock protection in full completion, unless his opponent was someone one entire level above him, someone at the same level as him wouldn't be able to do anything at all!" Pi Jiake said seriously.

"Seriously? So basically, only a Sky class could fight Jin Wudi, and even you, dad, an Earth class late phase peak physical practitioner- you can't fight him?" Zhishan's face was shocked.

"It's not that.. perhaps it's true that he would not be able to beat me, but I definitely would not be able to beat him for sure! Because everything I could throw at him would not have much effect!" He smiled bitterly, "This was the biggest advantage of the Golden clock protection technique, even a Sky class- if he wasn't a specialist in an attack type technique, he wouldn't be able to do much to him, unless it was a practitioner with a specialized high attack power. Only someone like that would be able to damage him…"

"I see- no wonder you put so much value in him!" Zhishan said.

"That's right- he's just early phase peak physical, but by the hidden house's standards, his sect is at the same level as our hidden house! We might look down on his strength a bit, but we still need to give him face!" Pi Jiake explained.

"I know, I'll go visit him right now. If he's able to kill that Lin Yi or that Great Warrior, that would be great!" Zhishan said, "That warrior guy is evidently a strong physical practitioner as well, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to kill Pi Yangyang in one hit! Although, he would not be able to do that to Jin Wudi!"

"That's right, that would let us reap the benefits as well!" Jiake nodded.

At the same time, Yanjing's House Yu were also aware of Wudi.

As much as they were happy about someone causing trouble for Lin Yi, they were disappointed as well- House Yu's revenge was taken by someone else! Elder Yu was currently doing a mission for the hidden House Yu, and was unable to avenge their family. He, himself, was not able to delay Jin Wudi too. So, at best, they had to settle with letting someone else kill Lin Yi- who cared if it was someone else who sent that bastard to death!

Hidden House Zhao, on the other hand, were also aware- but the head of the house Zhao Guanyin could only keep silent! The hidden House Zhao was now under the authority of his old man, and while he was technically the head, his authority was very limited. If he was able to do anything to Lin Yi he would have already went for it- though Wudi making his move did solve this big problem of his which was taking revenge for Zhao Qibing. But he couldn't say that out in the open, and so he gave Qibin a phone call to tell him to pay attention to the situation.

"Qibin, Father may not be able to personally take revenge for you, but this time Ji Wudi's coming down from the mountain, targetting Lin Yi- when he goes to him, you can go take a look. It's revenge for you!" Guangyin said as he dialed Qibin's phone.

"What a pity, dad- it's Jin Wudi doing the deed- it would have been so much better if I was the one that did it!" Qibin was more or less unwilling.

"Qibin, you know my situation, too- it's an awkward position here in the hidden house Zhao. The old man's not giving permission, and I can't move any practitioners Earth class and above! But killing Lin Yi requires at least an Earth class!" Guangyin said, "My brother, your uncle, is also now aiming for the spot of the head of the house. If it weren't for the fact that House Yu's Yu Xiaojing was my wife, my position here might not be as stable… So son, you need to understand…"
