Beauty and the Bodyguard

Qiqi frowned as she watched Lin Yi put the blue crystal away. This guy wasn't a good guy after all-he didn't really want to stand up for her, he just wanted to use this as an excuse to keep the blue crystal for himself!

This person was even more overbearing. He actually used a first-grade pill to exchange for the blue crystal. That skinny man had suffered a huge loss.

But Qiqi knew that she'd be asking for trouble if she asked Lin Yi for the blue crystal now, and so she thought of a good idea after some hesitation. She calmed herself down and put on a grateful face as she walked over to Lin Yi."This warrior, thank you!"

"Pfft ..." Lin Yi looked at Qiqi with a weird expression."Warrior?"

"Ugh ......" Qiqi blinked as well-she didn't have much experience in the martial arts world, and she'd grown up overseas as well, so her understanding of the rules was limited to the wuxia movies and TV shows she watched. She didn't know how to address Lin Yi, but "warrior" didn't seem right, "That's a hero ..."

"..." Lin Yi was speechless. Where did this cool girl learn all these weird words?

"That ... I'm just thanking you for helping me out just now!" Qiqi realized that all the nicknames she'd learned didn't seem right, so she decided to just say it.

"Oh, it's nothing." Lin Yi said faintly as he looked at Qiqi.

As for Qiqi, how could she thank him? Lin Yi didn't believe that-he'd stolen the blue crystal from this girl, and she was trying to get close to him with nice words? This wasn't Qiqi's personality!

Lin Yi didn't believe that Qiqi was really grateful to him, and anyone with eyes could tell that Lin Yi's real goal was the blue crystal, although he "rightfully" took it from the skinny man.

"Boss, they're about to enter the arena. Let's go?" Han xiaopo reminded Lin Yi. In a place like this, it was best not to talk too much with strangers. After all, there was no knowing what people were thinking. Who knew if it would bring unnecessary trouble?

"Alright, then let's part ways here, heroine." Lin Yi said with a smile.

"Ah ... Wait!" Qiqi didn't want Lin Yi to leave just like that-how was she supposed to get the blue crystal back if he did? And so, Qiqi called out to him.

"Is there anything else?" Lin Yi asked.

"That ... The people here are sinister. I've just entered the martial world. This ... This young hero, can you do me a favor and let me go with you?" Qiqi called Lin Yi "young master" after hearing him call her "miss."

In fact, this was the current honorific in the cultivation world, but it was not often used.

"I see. Alright then." Lin Yi nodded-he wouldn't have agreed so easily if it were someone else, after all.

Han xiaopo frowned. She wanted to remind Lin Yi to reject it, but after thinking about it, she stopped herself. After all, Lin Yi was the boss, and he naturally had his own plans.

"Many thanks!" Qiqi was overjoyed. As long as you say yes, I can slowly get the blue crystal back! It was something that could exchange for little Nine's life-she couldn't let Lin Yi take it no matter what. A second class pill was precious, but it was far less valuable than the blue crystal. Ten second class pills couldn't even be exchanged for a small piece of blue crystal!

Qiqi was looking for a treasure as well, and so she had to get the blue crystal back-otherwise, she'd be going home empty-handed! Furthermore, according to the information, the heavenly treasure that could sustain little Jiu's life was indeed present in the cultivator's market this time!

The three of them walked together, but Lin Yi noticed that the people around them kept a respectful distance from them. The strength Lin Yi had just shown was above average among these practitioners, and in the eyes of most Mystic class practitioners, it was an existence that was out of reach.

Especially after Lin Yi's overbearing attitude earlier, bullying the skinny man to the point that he didn't even dare to speak. Most people labeled Lin Yi as a dangerous person or spiky head.

He walked quickly to the foot of the mountain, and there was a checkpoint there. It seemed that this was the place for identification. It reminded Lin Yi of the scene in Wulong haote mountain!

"Take out the invitation ... Hey, kid, is this your invitation? A mere golden class late phase peak, this market is not a place for a little shit like you to come to. " One of the younger guards grabbed a skinny golden class late phase peak.

"Big Brothers, this invitation is real. I signed up through the practitioner's trade association ..." The Golden class late phase peak was a powerful existence in the common world, but here, he was at the bottom. He had to be careful.

It wasn't strange for Lin Yi to be able to see through this person's strength-he had a cheat, but it wasn't possible for these two guards to have it. It was quite unbelievable that they could see through the strength of the Golden class late phase peak without using any Arts or techniques.

"Really? Even if the invitation is real, who knows where you got it from? Maybe I picked it up from a dead person!" The other older man raised his eyebrows and said coldly,""Alright, if there's nothing else, then get lost!"

"This ..." The Golden class late phase Peak Master was helpless. He gritted his teeth and took out a small box from his bag, handing it over along with the invitation,""Brothers, I did pick up this invitation from a dead man. However, he had something else on him. Since he's dead, this thing should belong to the cultivators trade association. I'll hand it over ..."

"Hmm ... Let me see!" The young man smiled at the Golden class late phase peak and took the box. He opened it and saw a first class pill. He nodded,""That's right. Seeing as you've never kept your money, please come in!"

"Many thanks to the two big Brothers!" The Golden class late phase peak young man quickly walked into the market.

Lin Yi had been observing the two guards-they were obviously looking for trouble, bullying the weak and fearing the strong. Lin Yi didn't like this at all! (To be continued.)
