Beauty and the Bodyguard

If it were anyone else present, they'd be begging for her hand with just a look, let alone reaching out. They wouldn't even be as cold as Lin Yi, who didn't even reach out his hand.

Even though he was a little embarrassed, Murong Zhen quickly regained his composure and said in a coy voice,""In the future, we'll all be newbies of the GreenCloud Pavilion, while I'm just a weak girl who has no one to rely on. Big brother Lin, you have to remember to take good care of me!"

The ravings were seductive, and as they hadn't seen a woman in a long time, even the practitioners with strong self-control couldn't help but feel their hearts flutter. They wanted to replace Lin Yi with themselves and take this soft beauty into their arms and cherish her.

Lin Yi only responded with a noncommittal smile, not planning on talking at all.

This scene made everyone's jaws drop once more-if they'd thought that Lin Yi was just stupid and didn't know how to appreciate favors, they were no longer thinking that way.

Thinking back to the rumors about Lin Yi having countless girlfriends in the common world, a thought appeared in everyone's mind-this lecherous Lin Yi probably didn't ignore this beauty at all, but was just acting like he was used to acting cool and playing hard to get!

As high and mighty cultivators, even if it wasn't easy for them to win the favor of female cultivators of the same strength, their status among ordinary people was undoubted. If they really wanted to, they would definitely not lack women. Naturally, they also had a set of skills in dealing with women.

Playing hard to get, as long as the timing was right, this move could not only leave a deep impression in the other party's heart, but it was also more useful in many cases than unbridled ingratiating!

However, the prerequisite for using this move was that it had to be attractive enough. In the cultivation world where the strong were respected, it meant that one had to have enough strength and a strong background at the same time. Otherwise, it would only backfire.

In terms of strength, Lin Yi was the head of the pack. He was strong in front of the new disciples, but he was only at the early Foundation Stage. Murong Zhen, on the other hand, was at the peak of the early Foundation Stage, which was a whole level higher!

In terms of background, Lin Yi was just a rookie from the common world. Even if everyone here was a grassroots individual practitioner, their background and strength were much better than Lin Yi 's. After all, no matter how poor they were, as local practitioners, they still had some connections.

Not to mention, this beauty Murong was rumored to be related to elder Murong of the rising Sky Pavilion. This background was unattainable for anyone here, let alone a weakling like Lin Yi who came from the secular world!

"Just wait and see. This pretentious leader will lift a stone and smash his own feet sooner or later. It will be interesting when he is stepped on by the Murong beauty!" Meng Tong sneered.

Li Zhengming couldn't help but smile when he heard this. He didn't know if boss Lin Yi really had any feelings for Murong Zhen, but he knew that if they really fought, boss Lin Yi would definitely crush his opponent in a matter of minutes!

Therefore, Meng Tong's self-indulgent thoughts could only be described in one word-naive!

But he obviously wouldn't say it out loud, and just laughed coldly. Of course, the person he laughed at wasn't Lin Yi, but the newbie.

Seeing that Lin Yi didn't respond to her, Murong Zhen was really annoyed. This guy, why didn't he give her face?!

The only reason she was trying to get on Lin Yi's good side was because he was the stronger one among the group, and the other newbies seemed to be afraid of him. She felt that he wasn't simple, and she could use him.

She'd thought that this sort of thing would be a piece of cake for a beauty like her, and that she'd be able to get Lin Yi to bow down to her like a piece of cake, but she didn't think that Lin Yi would be so insensible, turning a blind eye to her two public displays of goodwill!

Did this guy really think that he was a super young master like Xu lingchong? did he really want a beauty like her to take the initiative to throw herself at him?

You're just an early Foundation establishment cultivator without any background. It's already a blessing that I'm willing to take a look at you, and you want me to throw myself at you? PEI, you're not worthy!

Although she was angry, there were so many people watching and it was her first time appearing in front of everyone. Murong Zhen did not want to lose her demeanor and affect her image. She had not given up on herself yet.

Even if she was to be banished to the GreenCloud Pavilion as a newcomer, Murong Zhen had no intention of giving up. She was still planning to use the time she had left in the welcoming Pavilion to rope in a few powerful newcomers with a bright future so that she could prepare to deal with Shangguan LAN 'er in the future!

In order to deal with the high and mighty young miss Shangguan LAN 'er, the new disciples of the GreenCloud Pavilion would definitely not be of much use. However, they were not completely useless. At that time, it would still be possible to set up a scheme and use them as cannon fodder.

Lin Yi's cold response made Murong Zhen feel awkward and annoyed, but Meng jueguang, the senior Steward, stepped out to help her out.

"Alright, everyone, quiet down. I'll formally introduce everyone!" Meng jueguang pretended to smile at Murong Zhen gently and then introduced in a clear voice,"From today onwards, this miss mu Rong is officially a newcomer of our GreenCloud Pavilion. Like everyone else, she will be participating in the newcomer's test. As for the tests that have already been taken, there will no longer be a make-up test for them."

After a pause, Meng jueguang continued,"In addition, as the fifteen cave abodes at the foot of the mountain are already full, according to the instructions of the higher-ups, we are to build a wooden house for miss Murong as a temporary residence."

Everyone looked at each other when they heard this. They would be lying if they said that they were not suspicious of Murong Zhen's arrival.

With Murong Zhen's strength and background, he could join one of the three great pavilions with just a word. The fact that he had joined the welcoming Pavilion halfway through was already strange enough, not to mention that he had not joined the rising Sky Pavilion, but the GreenCloud Pavilion.

In this way, even if he were to leave the welcoming new pavilion in the future, according to the rules of the three great pavilions, he could only become an inner disciple of the GreenCloud Pavilion and not an inner disciple of the rising Sky Pavilion. The difference in treatment between the two was huge!

To Murong Zhen, who was supposed to become an inner disciple of the rising Sky Pavilion, this was an inhumane and merciless suppression!

Furthermore, after Murong Zhen became a new member of the GreenCloud Pavilion, not only did she lose the starting line in the important newcomer assessment, she did not even have a broken-down immortal's cave. All she had was a temporary wooden house! (To be continued.) "If you like this work, you're welcome to come to Qidian.com to give your recommendation and monthly vote.
