Beauty and the Bodyguard

"That means that before they get the approval of the southern island, the spirit beasts in the back mountain aren't considered part of the spirit beast clan, and only the especially powerful ones are allowed to go there, right?" Lin Yi said, understanding. Doesn't that mean that the spirit beasts in the back mountain were all picked from the southern island?"

"That's right, but not all powerful spirit beasts are willing to join the southern island. After all, after joining the southern island, although you human cultivators dare not have any ideas about them, they themselves will also be subject to various restrictions. Therefore, there are still many extremely powerful spirit beasts that do not belong to the spirit beast clan. This is the same as many grassroots individual cultivators in you humans who are unwilling to join the sects."

After a pause, the ghastly thing said in a serious tone,""According to my senses, there are many powerful spirit beasts in the back mountain that are strong enough to join the southern island. Some of them are even comparable to the top masters of the spirit beast clan. Since they are staying here, it means that they are not willing to join the southern island. This is a loss for the entire spirit beast clan."

"A top-notch expert comparable to the spirit beast clan? How powerful was he? How does it compare to that ghost-eyed Golden Eagle?" Lin Yi asked curiously.

"Ghost-eyed Golden Eagle? Heh, that guy's talent and strength are not bad, and it won't be a problem for him to continue growing and join the southern island, but compared to the few I've mentioned, he's on a completely different level. " The ghastly thing laughed mockingly.

"Really?" Lin Yi was dumbfounded. The ghost-eyed Golden Eagle was a very powerful being in his eyes, but it didn't even seem worth mentioning to this thing.

"Boy, the ones I mentioned are all in the core of the back mountain. As for their strength, I'll put it this way. As long as you walk in front of them, they only need to blink and you'll die." The ghastly thing laughed strangely.

"Ugh ..." Lin Yi was stunned. He thought that the thing was exaggerating, but he still felt his blood run cold.

Lin Yi's instinct told him that the thing was telling the truth-it could kill him with a blink of its eyes. The core of the inner area of the back mountain really did have a powerful existence like that. It could be seen that the three pavilions had a reason for setting up layers of restrictions in the back mountain. Otherwise, if someone were to be blind and break in, they would die without even knowing how they died.

"Senior ghost, how do you compare to them when you were at your peak?" Lin Yi asked, his face hopeful.

"If they were on the sky rank North Island, their strength would be extraordinary, but on the South Island, hehe, I'm an elder of the spirit beast clan, and my strength can be ranked in the top five. What do you think?" The ghastly thing asked.

"An elder ranked in the top five? Wouldn't that be a top-notch existence among the spirit beasts?" Lin Yi had guessed that this thing was special, but he didn't think it would be this special.

He was a core figure of the southern island-he was on the same level as Xu lingchong's grandfather! This was someone Lin Yi had to respect, and he didn't expect to have one by his side!

If that was the case, if he had encountered that damn thing in its peak condition for the first time in the secular world, wouldn't he have died without even blinking?

Thinking back to their first encounter, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel lucky-he'd be dead by now if he didn't run into this guy's damaged soul.

"Senior ghost ... No, Senior Spirit beast, since you're an elder of the spirit beast clan, why did you appear in the secular world?" Lin Yi couldn't help but ask. Compared to the spirit beasts, there were more human masters on Sky Class Island, but he'd never heard of anyone taking the initiative to go back to the common world.

The ghastly thing was silent for a moment. Instead of answering directly, it asked,""I'm afraid you still have a question you haven't asked. You're very confused as to why this old man has fallen to this miserable state since I was so powerful back then, right?"

"Haha ..." Lin Yi laughed awkwardly. He did have that question, but he didn't want to expose the thing's wound.

He was one of the top five beings in the spirit beast clan, and there should be very few who could match him at his level of strength. Even if there were stronger beings than him, they would at least be able to escape if they couldn't defeat them. It was truly inconceivable that he had fallen to the point where he was only left with an incomplete primordial spirit.

The ghastly thing sighed and slowly said,""The spirit beast clan's existence is ultimately condensed on the king of the spirit beasts. When it was around, the spirit beast clan only had one voice and could unite as one iron plate, making all the other powerful sects fear it. However, when it was not around, they gradually returned to their own state. Although it was better than the most primitive time, there were constant conflicts between the factions, and they became a plate of loose sand."

"The king of spirit beasts is not here? Could he have been killed?" Lin Yi couldn't help but cry out.

According to the damn thing's description, this King of spirit beasts was an invincible existence, and even the three top masters of humanity couldn't do anything to it. Lin Yi couldn't imagine who could deal with an epic level existence like this!

"This matter actually started eight years ago!" The demonic thing sighed,"eight years ago, the Sky Class island's sky and earth ling qi started to thin down. Everyone noticed it, but no one knew why!" At that time, two mysterious figures suddenly appeared on the Sky Class island within an island, summoning all the big shots on the island for a meeting to discuss countermeasures. Of course, only the top-tier people have the right to participate-not even me! As for how the meeting went, no one knows. After that, our King of spiritual beasts disappeared with those top masters!"

"It disappeared?" Lin Yi's heart jumped! The two mysterious people? Why was this so similar to what happened in the secular world?

Back then, it was his master and old Lin who took those Sky Class late phase peak Masters away-why was this happening on the heavenly Island?

However, it was pushed back by five years!

However, Lin Yi didn't think that these two were old Lin-the old man was still in the common world! However, could one of these two people be his master?

"Oh? Senior ghost, what's the background of these two mysterious people? They wanted everyone to go for a meeting? There's no conflict?" Lin Yi was a little troubled-after all, these top-class Masters had their own pride, and not just anyone could find them! (To be continued.)
