Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Tsk, tsk, what a turbulent wave!" Lin Yi said nonchalantly as if nothing had happened, giving off the feeling that he was just a bystander.

With just one slap, he sent an expert at the peak of the early Foundation Stage flying? What kind of bullsh * t plot is this!

It took a long time for the audience to recover from their shock. Even Meng jueguang's mouth was agape as if he had seen a ghost.

As far as they knew, Lin Yi was only an early-stage Foundation practitioner. No matter how strong he was, he couldn't possibly be stronger than Murong Zhen, who was at the peak of the early-stage Foundation, right?

He'd thought that Lin Yi would be lucky enough to survive today, and that he'd at least have to pay the price of heavy injuries.

Unfortunately, reality was cruel. Not only did Lin Yi not die at Murong Zhen's hands, but the person he had high hopes for, Murong Zhen, was slapped to death. How could he accept this?

Lin Yi, on the other hand, only had a slight flesh wound on his chest. Looking at how nonchalant he was, it didn't even count as a light injury.

"Boss is mighty!" Qiao hongcai couldn't help but praise Lin Yi as he walked down the stage with ease. His miserable senior brother and Xiao ran were also excited.

They were confident in Lin Yi's strength, but they didn't think that he could win so easily. He just slapped his opponent off the stage-this was unbelievable! Boss Lin Yi was too strong!

Lin Yi smiled and turned to the stunned Murong Zhen."Miss mu Rong, you've let me win. I'm very sorry to have ruined your clothes. However, if you fight with me again, I'd advise you to wear something that is fireproof."

Hiss! Only then did Murong Zhen snap back to his senses. He looked at Lin Yi's calm but heart-palpitating eyes and couldn't help but shiver. He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, not daring to say a word.

Lin Yi's strength had been deeply imprinted in her mind in that instant, and she shuddered without even thinking about it. She couldn't help but feel a little more fear towards Lin Yi, even though she didn't realize it.

He was a peak-level early-stage Foundation establishment cultivator, yet he was slapped down from the stage by a self-proclaimed early-stage Foundation establishment cultivator!

She'd never even heard of something like this before, let alone come across it. She'd thought that Lin Yi was just a little stronger than he was before, and that it was nothing.

But now, after that frightening slap, the shiver that came from the depths of her soul told her that no matter how unwilling she was, Lin Yi was someone she couldn't mess with!

What kind of strength does this guy have! Murong Zhen's heart was already roaring. If someone dared to tell her that Lin Yi was only an early-stage Foundation, she'd wring that person's head off and use it as a chamber pot! He slapped her right off her face-how the hell was this guy an early-stage Foundation?!

This guy was at least an expert at the peak of the early stage of the foundation building realm. He might even be stronger than this. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to do this!

Lin Yi knew that he'd achieved his goal today when he saw the fear in Murong Zhen's eyes. He smiled and walked back to the group.

If he could slap Murong Zhen just now, then he could kill him too. However, now was not the time to do so! If he won against Murong Zhen, no one would pay much attention to him. But if he killed Murong Zhen, it would be a different story.

Although there were a lot of fights in the welcoming new pavilion, not many people died. If they were noticed by the southern Heaven Gate and became suspicious, it would not be worth it.

Today's battle was not only a warning to Murong Zhen, but also a warning to Meng jueguang and the others. He did not expect these people to stop here, but at least they would be wary for a while. This would save them some unnecessary trouble.

As for his strength at the peak of the early Foundation Stage, it was only a matter of time.

After a month of observation, Lin Yi was sure that Yu Zhe and Nantian gate's eyes had shifted away from him. It wouldn't be a problem even if he showed his peak foundation level strength.

"F * ck! What kind of freak was this kid? did he take the wrong medicine? Otherwise, how could his strength have increased so quickly?" Meng jueguang could feel Lin Yi's powerful aura from afar, and was surprised.

He was on the verge of breaking through to mid Foundation, but he was only at the peak of early Foundation. This meant that Lin Yi, a newcomer from the secular world who'd only been in the pavilion for less than four months, was already on the same level as him, the Senior Manager?

This was impossible!

Meng jueguang subconsciously ruled out this possibility. If Lin Yi's success in breaking through to the Foundation Stage was due to the foundation pill, it was still acceptable, but breaking through to the peak of the early Foundation Stage in just two months was something he'd never heard of before!

"It's definitely the limit Jindan!" Meng jueguang immediately found a more acceptable explanation for himself. The ultimate golden core could allow a person to exert power beyond their own level for a short period of time. Even at the level of the foundation establishment stage, this effect would not be weakened much. As long as it was below the foundation establishment stage, it would be effective!

Lin Yi must've predicted that Murong Zhen would challenge him today and prepared the ultimate golden pill beforehand. He might've even consumed two of them without caring about the cost to defeat Murong Zhen in the arena!

Right! This explanation made sense!

Meng jueguang was in a much better mood now-he'd be in deep trouble if Lin Yi really did become a peak-level early Foundation Stage practitioner.

This wasn't a matter of whether he could suppress Lin Yi or not-he'd only been in the pavilion for four months, and he'd gone from a mere Sky Class full master all the way to the peak of the early Foundation Stage! This was enough to attract the attention of all the higher-ups in the pavilion!

After all, Lin Yi wasn't like Murong Zhen-he was born in the common world, a true newbie from the grassroots. Every breakthrough he made was proof of his talent!

If Lin Yi could keep up this amazing performance, he'd have a bright future ahead of him. With just a little bit of luck, he might even become like Gongyang Jie of the rising Sky Pavilion, one of the future leaders of the GreenCloud Pavilion. He wasn't someone Meng jueguang could deal with at all, even if he became the third Pavilion master of the welcoming new pavilion!

But the good thing was that Lin Yi wasn't that weird-he'd only taken a golden pill at the limit beforehand, so there wasn't much to be surprised about. (To be continued.)
