Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Ninth older cousin brother, you have to help me!" Meng Tong could only look at Meng jueguang. At a time like this, only his ninth cousin could decide his fate. As long as Meng jueguang said that it was invalid, everything would be fine.

Meng jueguang glared at him hatefully. If it wasn't for this useless piece of trash, he wouldn't have fallen into such an embarrassing situation. The words he had said before were already like water that had been spilled. How could he take them back with so many people watching? If he were to go back on his word at this time, not only would Meng Tong become a laughingstock, but even Meng jueguang would become a laughingstock in the welcoming new pavilion. He would be unable to lift his head in front of the stewards of the other two pavilions!

Under everyone's gaze, Meng jueguang could only grit his teeth and say,"This is the rule of the welcoming new pavilion. Everyone must obey it without exception! Even I have to obey it!"

Meng Tong felt as if he had lost his parents, but he could only swallow his anger under Meng jueguang's pressure. Lin Yi, on the other hand, smiled faintly,"Senior brother Meng is wise."

Meng jueguang gave a noncommittal "en," but his praise was as disgusting as eating a fly, the kind of fly that had just flown out of a cesspit.

But immediately, Lin Yi turned to Xiao ran,"Xiao ran, I'll exchange my cave abode number one for your cave abode number thirteen, is that okay?"

Changed again? The crowd went into an uproar. Lin Yi exchanged his number fourteen for Qiao hongcai's number fifteen to attack Meng Tong. It was understandable, but this guy wanted to exchange his number one for Xiao ran's number thirteen. No one could understand!

If it was someone else, they would be overjoyed to get cave number one at the foot of the mountain. Why would they take the initiative to exchange for cave number thirteen? Was there something wrong with his brain?

Could it be that he was purely noble and unquestionable? The world of practitioning had always been cruel, and if this Lin Yi was able to stand out from the common world, he couldn't be this childish, right? could he have some other intentions?

"Uh ... Brother Lin, this is too valuable. I can't accept it!" Xiao ran was stunned for a moment before he quickly waved his hand and refused.

He and Lin Yi came from the common world together, so he was naturally closer to Lin Yi than the other newbies. It was natural for them to take care of each other, but the problem was that cave one was too important. It was so important that he might not be able to return the favor even if he did everything for Lin Yi in the future!

Of course, cave number one was the dream of all the new disciples, and Xiao ran was no exception. With his cultivation level of Sky Class late phase peak, if he used it with the effect of cave number one, he would be able to become the top disciple of the Qingyun Pavilion in the future, let alone compete with the people from the rising Sky Pavilion and the mysterious Pavilion!

This was an irresistible temptation to anyone, and it was the same for Xiao ran and Lin Yi!

Lin Yi did say that his practitioner's art was special, and that it didn't have a high concentration of Qi, but anyone with eyes could tell that it was just an excuse. No matter how weird or insane a practitioner's art was, the more Qi there was, the better it would be. There was no such thing as the stronger the Qi, the worse the effect.

"Just accept it, brother Xiao. If it really doesn't work, we can exchange it after you use it for half a month." Lin Yi said with a smile, but his words were undoubted, not giving Xiao ran a chance to refuse. "It's decided then, unless you want to cut off all ties with me in the future!"

He had to take revenge and repay kindness-this was Lin Yi's principle. Xiao ran's attempt to bring him to cave number thirteen was a good thing, and Lin Yi had to return the favor. Besides, they both came from the secular world, and they would be allies in the future. It might be a good thing for Lin Yi to help Xiao ran improve faster.

Seeing Lin Yi's determined attitude, Xiao ran hesitated for a moment before agreeing,""Then ... Alright, I can't thank you enough for your great kindness. In the future, I'll be willing to follow brother Lin's lead."

Being born in a declining ancient house like house Xiao, Xiao ran was used to the fickleness of human nature, and he'd seen all sorts of schemes and intrigues, but this was the first time he'd come across someone like Lin Yi. He was only sky Class full phase, but his intuition told him that this Lin Yi in front of him was no ordinary person.

No matter if it was a show of gratitude or a long-term investment, Xiao ran knew that from today on, he was labeled as Lin Yi's ally. From now on, he would be in the Ying Xin Pavilion with Lin Yi-they would be together for good or bad.

At this time, all the newbies looked at Lin Yi in a different way. Their eyes were full of respect just now, but now, there was a bit of mockery on top of respect.

It seemed like Meng Tong was right-this Lin Yi guy was really good at acting tough. He only won by a fluke just now, and now he was acting all high and mighty. He really didn't know his place. Without the assistance of cave number one, his strength would not improve as fast as the others in a month. It would be fun to watch if he ended up losing the ranking competition.

He's just a country bumpkin who was lucky enough to get into the secular world. What's the point of being awesome? Even if he wanted to form a gang, he didn't have to do this, right? If you lose a month later, do you really think Xiao ran's side will still look up to you?

Wasn't it stupid to follow a weakling?

Lin Yi didn't seem to notice the change in the expressions of the people around him. He looked at Qiao hongcai, who was standing beside him, and decided to play nice,"Brother Qiao, I'll give cave number thirteen to you. I'll stay in cave number fourteen. I'll respect senior brother Meng's arrangement. After all, this cave was assigned to me by senior brother Meng."

"Ah? This ... Good. " Qiao hongcai was already a little numb at this time. This was the first time he'd seen a loner like Lin Yi, and this was nothing compared to what he'd just done. He cupped his hands at Lin Yi,"Brother Lin, thank you. If you need anything in the future, just let me know."

Although Qiao hongcai didn't say that he would follow Lin Yi's lead like Xiao ran did, he still called Lin Yi "brother Lin" and said that he had something to tell him. The meaning was obvious.

This bastard! Meng jueguang's blood was boiling as he looked at the scene before him. This was a good chance to build up his reputation, but with Lin Yi messing things up, it'd become a one-man show!
