Beauty and the Bodyguard

3952 Self-explosion

The difference in strength between him and Lin Yi was so great that he couldn't even see the end of it. It was impossible for him to break free from Lin Yi's grasp now.

The only way was to cut off his left hand, as he'd said before. Unfortunately, Zhaoming wasn't only afraid of death, he was afraid of pain as well. He wouldn't be able to do something like that even if he had the guts.

He couldn't break free no matter what, and he didn't dare cut off an arm. Trying to be petty didn't work either. He watched as the pill fire bomb in his hand grew more and more violent, and his heart was in his throat.

Zhaoming couldn't care less about his face anymore as he yelled,"I lost! I surrender! I'll give up on my own accord, alright!"

He wasn't just shouting at Lin Yi-from Lin Yi's attitude, he knew that even if he admitted defeat, Lin Yi might not give him the chance to do so. He was shouting for everyone to hear, especially the head of the welcome Pavilion, Hu Yunfeng.

The words sent the crowd into an uproar. They couldn't really hear Zhaoming's plea because he'd lowered his voice on purpose, but now that he'd shouted it out in front of everyone, it was hard not to hear him.

"I ... I didn't hear wrong, did I? Kang Zhaoming surrendered?" Everyone looked at each other with strange expressions.

They knew that Kang Zhaoming wasn't Lin Yi's match, but this guy was a newbie that Xu lingchong and Hu Yunfeng supported together. Even if he didn't care about his own face, he should at least care about the faces of the people above him. It was too embarrassing for him to be forced to beg for mercy in front of everyone!

The fact was that the face of Hu Yunfeng, who always paid attention to his image, was as black as the bottom of a pot. Kang Zhaoming's words, wasn't it a slap to his face in public?

It was a good thing that lingchong wasn't there-the young master had been busy fighting with the southern sky sect for the position of big brother, and it'd been a critical time recently, so he didn't come. Otherwise, Zhaoming would've been dead for sure if he'd been there embarrassing him like that!

Zhaoming wasn't an idiot-if young master Xu were here, he'd probably be acting all righteous.

But now, no matter how unhappy Hu Yunfeng was, as long as he shouted these words in public, Hu Yunfeng would have to step forward to protect him. Otherwise, he would have seriously failed his duty.

Sure enough, Hu Yunfeng's face was dark, but he still appeared on the stage after hearing Zhaoming's plea,"If that's the case, then the fight ends here. Lin Yi, you can let go now."

With that, Hu Yunfeng's eyes were fixed on Lin Yi. If Lin Yi did anything out of line, he would take the chance to attack him and vent his anger.

However, Lin Yi only paused for a moment before letting go,"Since Pavilion master Hu has said so, I will be merciful and let you go. However, whether you can survive or not will depend on your luck."

With that, before anyone could react, Lin Yi's figure suddenly retreated. At the same time, Hu Yunfeng's face also changed, and he jumped off the stage without a word.

There was only Kang Zhaoming left on the stage. At first, he thought that his plan worked and was glad that he was successful, but then he realized that something was wrong. The pill fire bomb in his hand was on the verge of exploding.

After coming to his senses, Zhaoming flicked his hand in fear, trying to throw the pill fire bomb away. Unfortunately, the bomb exploded before he could even get it out of his hand.

BOOM! The ground trembled violently, and the expressions of the people below the stage changed drastically. By the time the dust settled, the ring was actually destroyed by more than half.

The welcoming new pavilion's arena's defensive formation wasn't that high level, but Lin Yi was the only one who'd done something like that before. He couldn't tell that this cowardly Kang Zhaoming was actually such a tough guy!

Only a monster like Lin Yi would be able to withstand such power. Any other newbie would've died without a doubt.

This Kang Zhaoming guy, he really had some skill.

What they didn't know was that in order to kill Lin Yi, Kang Zhaoming had been holding back his alchemy bomb for a long time. The power of the bomb had reached the limit of what he could do, and that was why he couldn't control the embarrassing situation.

Not only did the pill fire bomb fail to hit Lin Yi, but he'd also gotten himself into trouble.

Originally, thanks to Hu Yunfeng's interference, Zhaoming still had a chance to throw the bomb away and escape unscathed, despite the danger.

Unfortunately, Lin Yi didn't give him the chance. The moment he let go, he secretly put some pure Qi in. It would be a miracle if he could hold on until the bomb left his hand.

It wasn't easy for him to escape, but he was still tricked by Lin Yi in the end. Kang Zhaoming was really unlucky this time.

Just like everyone else, Lin Yi's eyes were glued to the arena. He really wanted to know if Kang Zhaoming was still alive or not.

Although with their current strength, Zhaoming was no longer a threat to him, Lin Yi didn't mind using this opportunity to kill him, given their past grudges.

It wasn't long before the sharp-eyed ones spotted Zhaoming in the ruins of the arena. His body was covered in wounds, his skin and flesh all red with patches of charred black. It was a sight that made one's hair stand up.

Hu Yunfeng's eyes twitched. No matter how much Kang Zhaoming embarrassed him, he was still someone lingchong had ordered him to take good care of. If he let him die Here, he wouldn't be able to answer to lingchong.

In a flash, Hu Yunfeng appeared beside Kang Zhaoming. He checked his breathing and found that he was breathing more than he was breathing. He looked like he was about to die, but luckily, he was still breathing.

Hu Yunfeng hesitated for a moment, before gritting his teeth and feeding Zhaoming a fourth grade recovery pill. The pill was precious, but if it could save Zhaoming's life, not only would it be a life-saving favor, but it would also make Xu lingchong owe him a favor. It was worth it.

Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh at the scene. It was a rare opportunity to kill Kang Zhaoming in broad daylight, and he wouldn't get another chance like this in a short time. (To be continued.)
