Beauty and the Bodyguard

"This woman is really not simple!" Lin Yi had completely seen through Murong Zhen's plan this time, and he believed that Meng jueguang's side was doing the same. Even so, there was nothing they could do to Murong Zhen.

They could only watch as Murong Zhen became a third-tier existence that everyone looked up to, but they could not do anything. Otherwise, if Murong Zhen sided with the other side at the slightest sign of trouble, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

They could tell that this was an open scheme by Murong Zhen and no one could stop it. Furthermore, they had no way of stopping it because of the rookie Challenge competition. They could only watch as this woman built her Foundation and slowly developed her wings.

However, there was one piece of good news for Lin Yi. He only had Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai as his subordinates. With Lin Yi's orders, it would be difficult for Murong Zhen to seduce them even if he wanted to.

However, things were different for Meng jueguang. His new subordinates were not very loyal to him, and every one of them, including Meng Tong, was drooling over the Murong beauty. As Murong Zhen's position was gradually established, it was very likely that these people would become fence-sitters.

After all, he'd been suppressed by Lin Yi's gang all this time, and his control over the new recruits had dropped to the freezing point. Even if these people didn't dare to betray him openly, if Murong Zhen were to give them a wink or even a little sweetness, he believed that no one would refuse to make eyes with this Murong beauty.

Murong Zhen's wisdom lay in the fact that even if Meng jueguang knew that she was trying to poach him, he could only endure it for the time being in order to not make the situation worse and force Murong Zhen to side with Lin Yi.

While Murong Zhen was stirring up a storm in the welcoming new pavilion, the southern heavenly gate and Yu Zhe, who were far away in the rising Sky Pavilion, finally saw the leader of the three Nan brothers, Nan Tianba.

Nan Tianba had just returned from his mission. He was still in his black armor. He sat on the master Chair and looked at Yu Zhe, who was trembling on the ground and didn't dare to move. Then, he looked at the nervous Southern Heaven Gate.

Nan Tianba suppressed his anger until the two of them could not breathe and said,""I've only left the island for two months to carry out a mission, and such a big thing happened. Not only did third brother lose his life, but you still haven't caught the real murderer. Second brother, you've disappointed me!"

As he spoke, Nan Tianba's killing intent combined with his powerful aura forced Yu Zhe, a mid Foundation Stage cultivator, to lie on the ground, not daring to move an inch. This was because he had just experienced a brutal massacre.

After all, the person in front of him was an existence that was above the perfected Foundation Stage cultivator of the southern Heaven Gate. He was a true golden core stage expert and was regarded as a strong pillar of support in the three pavilions!

It wasn't just Yu Zhe, even the head of the Grand South Heaven Gate's eldest senior brother, the manager of the rising Sky Pavilion, was covered in cold sweat.

"Big brother, it's not that I don't want to take revenge for third bro, but I've already told you the details. This Kang Zhaoming doesn't just involve Xu lingchong, there's even miss Shangguan. This is a serious matter, and I can't act rashly." South Heaven Gate complained with a dark face.

When Nan Tianba heard this, he could not help but frown. With his powerful strength as a golden core stage cultivator, people like Xu lingchong and Shangguan LAN 'er would not enter his eyes at all. However, the big bosses behind these two people were existences that stood at the peak of the entire North Island. Even a golden core stage expert like him would not dare to provoke them easily.

Moreover, Xu lingchong was eyeing the position of the eldest senior brother steward of the rising Sky Pavilion covetously. This was the time when they needed high-level relationships. Otherwise, if a Big Shot like Shangguan Tianhua were to casually say something, perhaps the southern Heaven Gate would have to abdicate and give up their position without any resistance.

After a long silence, Nan Tianba finally opened his mouth and said,""Well, this situation is not easy to deal with, and we can't blame it all on you, second brother. The most important thing now is to keep your position as the eldest senior brother in charge of the rising Sky Pavilion. As for the third brother, we'll find a way to avenge him later."

The position of the South Heaven Gate would allow them to make a fortune, and even Nan Tianba would benefit from it. So even if the South Heaven Gate wanted to give up, he would not agree.

Seeing that Nan Tianba had finally stopped harping on the matter of the third brother, Nan Tianmen immediately heaved a sigh of relief and nodded, "I'll follow big brother's orders. "

"Second brother, you've always been resourceful. Tell us what we should do next." Nan Tianba indicated for the southern heavenly gate to come up with a plan. Although he was the leader of the three Nan brothers and his strength was beyond doubt, he had never liked these troublesome things, so he might as well leave it to the southern heavenly gate.

"Big brother, it's obviously not enough for us to do this alone. So, I think it's necessary for uncle Nakajima to write a letter to the higher-ups of the rising Sky Pavilion. Even if he can't convince all the higher-ups, he can at least give them some support. It won't seem like we're too weak. These higher-ups should still have some concerns, and not all of them will side with Xu lingchong." South Heaven Gate suggested.

"Alright, I'll do as you say. I'll write a letter to uncle." Nan Tianba nodded his head, then sighed, "It's fortunate that our grandfather has been in seclusion all these years. Otherwise, with his influence, who would dare to say no to him?"

"Yeah, I hope he can succeed in his seclusion this time. Then we can hold our heads high!" Southern Heaven Gate was also full of emotion.

After the two brothers finished their discussion, Nan Tianba turned his gaze to Yu Zhe. His face turned cold again, and he snorted,""Third brother's death was all because of you. According to my original intention, I wanted to kill you to comfort third brother's soul in heaven!"

Hearing this, Yu Zhe broke out in a cold sweat, and all the hair on his body stood up. Nan Tianba's killing intent was real, and he was not joking.

Fortunately, Nan Tianba's words had a follow-up,""However, seeing that third brother has always praised you, my disciple, I will spare your dog life today. Get lost!"

Yu Zhe hurriedly called out,"eldest senior uncle, please wait. This disciple has been staying in the library Pavilion for the past three years. I've read many ancient books. I know of a treasure that can help you become the strongest original infant stage expert!"

What a joke! Previously, he had revealed the secret of the star inkstone because he wanted the southern heavenly gate's minor phaseless magic art. Moreover, if he stayed, this great martial aunt would probably have even more benefits. How could he give up such an opportunity!

"The strongest Yuanying stage expert? Are you serious?" Nan Tianba was shocked. The star inkstone could only help people to break through to the Golden core stage perfectly. To a golden core stage expert like him, it was not of much use. So when he first heard about it, he was not moved. However, the title of the strongest original infant stage expert made him drool with desire! (To be continued.)
