Beauty and the Bodyguard

"But, I wouldn't do something like that either. I ... I like Lin Yi, I wouldn't betray him." Mengyao shook her head, determined."Grand Elder, I'll talk to Lin Yi about this. I'm sure he'll have a way to solve this!"

"Lin Yi? Hmph, Yaoyao, don't be stupid. Lin Yi's just a freelancer, how could he have a plan? His true strength had already been exposed, so how could he be a match for these people? You have to know that there are at least three Sky Class late phase peak Masters among them-in this ancient level, who else could suppress them other than the sky elixir sect?" The Grand Elder said disdainfully after hearing Mengyao's words. She'd never even considered Lin Yi.

"No, Lin Yi will find a way!" Although Chu Mengyao said this, her heart was beating like a drum. She had been with Lin Yi for the longest time. Chu Mengyao knew Lin Yi's strength.

Although Lin Yi could kill Masters above his level in seconds, he had a weak phase too. Chu Mengyao also understood how many high level Masters died. Now that there were three Sky Class late phase peak Masters, at least three of them, could Lin Yi really handle it?

"Yaoyao, it's settled then. I'll talk to the sky elixir sect and ask them to come and propose. If Lin Yi can't beat him, then our Dark Palace is done for!" The Grand Elder said firmly.

"Grand Elder, when I came to the Dark Palace, you said that you wouldn't interfere in my private affairs. If you insist on this decision, then I can only leave. Otherwise, I'd rather die than obey!" Mengyao replied firmly.

"You ..." The Grand Elder was dumbfounded. She knew what kind of person Chu Mengyao was. She was completely different from ye Wan 'er. Ye Wan' er was someone who would accept adversity, but Chu Mengyao knew how to fight back. With her personality, she might even fight to the death!

"But, Yaoyao, are you going to watch the Dark Palace get destroyed?" The Grand Elder sighed and asked.

"He won 't, Lin Yi will find a way!" Mengyao said firmly.

"AI!" The Grand Elder shook his head helplessly,"Yaoyao, help me back to my room to rest ... If you insist on this, then the heavens are going to destroy my Dark Palace! But you're an inheritor, so even if Kang Zhaoming is the son-in-law of the five elements sect, they won't make things too difficult for you. Yaoyao, promise me that one day, when you get to Sky Class Island and step into the heavenly path, you'll rebuild the Dark Palace ..."

"Grand Elder ..." Chu Mengyao didn't expect the Grand Elder to say something like this. She fell silent for a moment. Yes, the Grand Elder may have some shortcomings, but she was dedicated to the Dark Palace and that would never change. But ... How good would it be if she could trust Lin Yi?

"Alright, that's enough. Go find Lin Yi. When he's here, you'll know how weak a solo practitioner is!" The Grand Elder cut Mengyao off and slowly walked into the dark Palace with Mengyao's help!

The Grand Elder was heavily injured and went into isolation to recover. Perhaps she was completely disheartened and disappointed in Chu Mengyao. She was waiting for the end of the Dark Palace in her room.

Although Chu Mengyao didn't say anything, what happened at the entrance of the Dark Palace still spread to the entire Dark Palace. All the disciples were in a state of panic.

Mengyao couldn't help but frown at the situation, but she didn't explain anything. It was the reality that the Grand Elder was injured, and everything had to wait for Lin Yi to come. If Lin Yi decided the situation, it would be more effective than a thousand words from Mengyao!

"Go back and do your own things. The sky won't fall down yet." Mengyao said with a wave of her hand, telling the disciples to go back to their own business.

Chu Mengyao's authority in the dark Palace was second only to the Grand Elder, so her words were still very effective. These people all left and went back to their own business.

Chu Mengyao went back to her room and called Lin Yi. The incident just now was too sudden and there were a lot of disciples watching. Chu Mengyao didn't notice that Zhao Qibing, who was cleaning the toilet, had sneaked behind these disciples.

Although Mengyao and the Grand Elder didn't speak loudly, Zhao Qibing could still hear something. So, when Chu Mengyao called Lin Yi, he also called Kang Zhaoming's number.

"Elder Kang, I'm just a small soldier!" Qibing said.

"Oh, Qibing, what's up? Is there any news from the Dark Palace?" Kang Zhaoming asked.

"Yes, didn't you come to force me to marry you before? Today, a bunch of robbers came and injured the Grand Elder, but Chu Mengyao and the Grand Elder got into an argument. The Grand Elder wanted Chu Mengyao to marry into the sky elixir sect, but Chu Mengyao didn't agree and insisted on looking for Lin Yi. She might be calling Lin Yi now!" Kang Zhaoming whispered.

"Oh? Really? That's great!" Kang Zhaoming laughed happily, "I'm not afraid of her looking for me, I'm only afraid that she won 't! Qibing, you've done well-don't worry, after this, you won't run away from your Deacon position. Not only that, if you get the recognition of ancestor xuanchen, my father-in-law, it won't be hard for you to become a master on the same level as Sky Class late phase peak!"

"Ah? Is that true?" Qibing was excited-he didn't think he'd have such a chance!

"That's right. You might not know this, but your father and elder Mian are highly valued here. They're currently secretly improving their strength. When the time comes, you might be able to enjoy such benefits!" The benefit Zhaoming was talking about was naturally the bio-human cultivation. It was a scam, but it turned into a great thing when he said it!

However, Zhao Qibing didn't know the inside story and thought that he was really valued because of his contribution. He said gratefully, "Don't worry, elder Kang. What do you want me to do next?"

"Next, pay attention to when Lin Yi will go to the Dark Palace. Once he goes, you have to call me immediately!" Kang Zhaoming ordered.

"Sure, no problem!" This was a piece of cake for Qibing, and he quickly nodded in agreement!

This time, Lin Yi returned to his villa in Donghai city with a low profile. (To be continued.) "If you like this work, you're welcome to come to Qidian.com to give your recommendation and monthly vote. Your support is my greatest motivation. For mobile users, please read on M.Qidian.com.)
