Beauty and the Bodyguard

1723 Chapter 1721-Huoxing's lie

"I see!" Xiaochen nodded,"Yu Bing's letter gives us the perfect excuse not to stand up for the common house Yu!"

"Naturally!" The elder nodded,"I'll leave these two letters to you. Give one to ning. Tell her to come to me when she's free. I want to have a heart-to-heart talk with her!" You know what to do with the other letter, right?"

"Understood, I'll go find Yu Huoxing now!" Xiaochen said.

Huoxing heard that Xiaochen was looking for him so quickly and was very happy. He thought that house Yu was going to help the common world's house Yu out, and so he rushed to the room and said respectfully,"Head of House Yu, may I ask what the old ancestor said? Are you going to take revenge for our common house Yu? After all, we've been working hard all these years, helping the Hidden House Yu earn money-we've given away the majority of it. "

"Huoxing, it's not that I don't want to help you, but how can house Yu help you with what you've done?" Xiaochen's face darkened,"do you think we hidden house Yu are idiots?"

"Ah?" Huoxing paused, not understanding what Xiaochen meant. He was a little nervous,"Master ... You ... What do you mean?"

"What do you mean? Hmph, take a look at this letter yourself!" With that, Xiaochen tossed the letter Yu Bing had sent to the house to Huoxing. Other than greeting the house, it also talked about Huoxing, so there was no secret he couldn't let Huoxing see.

"A letter? What letter?" Huoxing saw Xiaochen's face and had a bad feeling. He carefully took the letter from Xiaochen's hands, surprised. This was a letter from home, what did it have to do with him?

From the looks of it, it was from a younger generation of house Yu. Huoxing took a look at the name and realized it was Yu Bing. He was even more surprised, but he still read it patiently! After all, Xiaochen wouldn't just show him a letter for no reason-there had to be a reason.

However, when Yu Huoxing read that Yu Bing had Qi gathering pills that he didn't hand over, his face changed! He didn't understand. How did someone know about this secret? I saw the news a few days ago, the Graverobber couple and old hei's gang were all wiped out, right? Who else knew about this?

But no matter what, this was exposed. Yu Bing's tone was firm, which meant that he had solid evidence, so it was impossible for Huoxing to deny it! If Yu Bing said it was a possibility or a guess, then Yu Huoxing would still have a chance.

"House Yu ... I ... This ..." Yu Huoxing was scared, not knowing what Yu Xiaochen was going to do with him. He was so scared that he was shaking, and he couldn't think of a good excuse. Could it be that the pill was given to the Hidden House Zhao?

If he told the truth, not only would he not be able to get revenge for the common house Yu, he might even get himself killed by Xiaochen! And so, Huoxing's mind spun as he tried to think of a reasonable excuse to avoid house Yu's blame!

"I what? You can't think of an excuse?" Xiaochen laughed coldly.

"No... I'm ... I'm just a little embarrassed to say it ..." Yu Huoxing lowered his head. He had already thought of an excuse. He pretended to be embarrassed and said it awkwardly.

"What's there to be embarrassed about?" Xiaochen said with a frown.

"Actually ... The male thief in the tomb is Lin Yi!" Huoxing started making up a story-he'd thought of a way to avoid responsibility while framing Lin Yi! This way, the Hidden House Yu would target Lin Yi, and he would be finished!

"The male thief is Lin Yi?" Xiaochen paused,"why is that Lin Yi?" Plus, even if it's Lin Yi, what does it have to do with you not handing over the pills?"

"I'm ashamed to say this, but my Qi gathering pill was stolen by Lin Yi!" Huoxing said painfully.

"Your Qi gathering pill was stolen by Lin Yi? From what I know, Lin Yi was only a Mystic mid phase peak before the test, right? You were already Earth Class early phase back then, and you were still afraid of Lin Yi?" Why did Xiaochen feel like Huoxing's words were a little weird?

"That's why I didn't dare to tell the truth!" "Huoxing said angrily," that Lin Yi may be Mystic mid phase peak, but he has a trump card, and I was poisoned ... Yes, poisoned, so even if I'm Earth Class, I'm no match for Lin Yi! And so, my Qi gathering pill was stolen by Lin Yi ..."

"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Xiaochen wasn't an idiot-he wouldn't believe Huoxing's words just like that.

"I'm afraid of losing face, right? I'm an Earth Class early phase, and a Mystic class mid phase peak took my pill-if word got out, how would I face the world?" "Huoxing said with a sad face," but head, you know that Lin Yi has his ways, or he wouldn't have killed my brother! After my second brother took the pill, he's now as strong as an Earth Class early phase peak! If Lin Yi can fight someone of a higher level, then ..."

"I know that Lin Yi has some special abilities, you don't need to explain!" Xiaochen said with a wave of his hand. He knew Lin Yi very well-this guy was able to make nitian and naipao, two people from ancient houses and sects, lose! He was no simple character!

The key question was, how much credibility did Yu Huoxing have?

"I'm ... I'm sorry, Head of House Yu, I hid the truth from you because I was afraid of the family's punishment ..." Huoxing said carefully.

"Are you telling the truth?" Xiaochen frowned.

"Naturally, I don't dare to hide anything!" Huoxing said in fear.

"If that's the case, I'll write a letter to Yu Bing and ask him if Lin Yi took the Qi gathering pill!" Xiaochen said coldly, not believing Huoxing's words.

But in reality, Xiaochen was already half-convinced! Yu Bing was on good terms with Lin Yi during the test, so the news of Yu Huoxing getting the Qi gathering pill must have come from Lin Yi's mouth as well. Since Lin Yi and the common house Yu were enemies, Lin Yi probably wanted to use Yu Bing's words to get the Hidden House Yu to deal with Yu Huoxing, or to not get involved in the fight between Lin Yi and the common house Yu!
