Beauty and the Bodyguard

He was counting on Lin Yi to give him good materials so he could satisfy his forging addiction. If he offended Lin Yi or made Lin Yi leave in anger, he'd be in deep trouble.

"You're too kind. Compared to brother Wang, I'm just a layman who knows nothing. I want to take this opportunity to learn the art of forging from brother Wang. Is that possible?" Lin Yi only smiled.

Naturally, Lin Yi was a forger, but he was just a half-assed one. What really confused Lin Yi was who this sun sikong was. Back then, han Jingjing also said that her master was called sun sikong. Could these two sun sikong be the same person? Then how did he come to Sky Class Island? Was he also a legend like Zhang Liju? Lin Yi's respect for her grew.

The king of junk replied excitedly,"brother Lin, you're being too serious. It's my dream to have a like-minded person to explore the path of smithing with. Don't worry, brother Lin. I'll tell you everything I know."

"Then I'll thank brother Wang in advance." Lin Yi nodded in thanks and took out the high-grade spirit beast material that the king of junk was looking forward to-it was the Nine-Tailed cloud piercer leopard's front claw and whip tail.

Upon seeing these items, the king of junk's eyes immediately lit up. Like a hungry wolf seeing sheep, his entire aura changed instantly.

Lin Yi felt a strong presence from him-it was clear that even if one wasn't strong enough, when one was fully focused on something, they could still tap into their potential.

"These are all good stuff!" The king of junk held these things in his arms like they were treasures, carefully reaching out to touch them, for fear of dirtying them. Looking at his posture, he wanted to sleep with these things.

After being happy for a while, the king of junk finally realized that Lin Yi was still in front of him. He took out a few things and introduced them to Lin Yi one by one. They were the black Toad tail, Fox bear bone, and wolf spider fur he mentioned before.

"Brother Lin, don't look down on these things. They aren't the most valuable parts of their respective spirit beasts, but I've spent a few months searching for them. When matched with your Nine-Tailed cloud piercing leopard, they're definitely good stuff. The compatibility between the two materials is very high, and they're no less effective than any other spirit beast material." The king of junk showed it to Lin Yi in high spirits.

"It's been hard on you for the past few months, brother Wang. " Lin Yi thanked him from the bottom of his heart.

"No, no. What's so hard about it? to me, this is a good job that I enjoy. I can't wait to be happy." The king of junk laughed.

After a pause, he looked at Lin Yi's steel staff and scratched his head,"Brother Lin, you never told me about this before, so I didn't think about it in detail. But you don't have to worry, I just roughly observed it, and your stick doesn't conflict with the materials of the Nine-Tailed cloud piercer leopard. It shouldn't be a problem to upgrade it. Also, there aren't many materials involved, so I believe it won't take long to complete it."

Even with Lin Yi's layman's eyes, he could tell that trash King was a forging maniac. He had real skills in his stomach, and if he was given the right opportunity, he might be able to shock the world.

This King of junk, who was belittled and looked down upon by everyone, was actually a buried gem. Once it bloomed its brilliance, it would definitely amaze the world.

Seeing how excited the king of junk was, Lin Yi quickly said,""Brother Wang, please wait. I have other materials on hand. You can take a look first."

"Oh? Hurry up and take it out. " The king of junk's eyes lit up as he urged impatiently.

Lin Yi smiled and took out a small bottle from the cloth.

The king of junk took it and opened the bottle. As soon as he took a look, he was stunned. He sniffed it carefully with his nose in disbelief and even dipped his finger into it and tasted it. After a moment, he became fanatical, and his eyes glowed green like a hungry wolf.

"Brother ... Lin, this ... This is the legendary Pure Land of the ancient times?!" The king of junk stuttered.

"That's right. Brother Wang has good eyes. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to recognize this thing." Lin Yi praised with a smile.

The ancient Pure Land was such a rare and obscure treasure. Except for the old monsters like the ghostly thing, who had lived for an unknown amount of time, ordinary people couldn't recognize it. They had never even heard of it. Even Yu Zhe, who had been immersed in ancient books all year round, might not be able to recognize it. It was clear that the junk King was really good at forging weapons.

The king of junk's eyes rolled back and he almost fainted. He looked at Lin Yi with tears in his eyes and almost knelt down,"Brother Lin, you're really my reincarnated parent. To be able to see such a legendary material, I have no more regrets in my life."

"Don't worry, I still have something to take out. " Lin Yi saw the king of junk's satisfied expression and laughed. He took out something from his bag and handed it to him.

"This, this is a thousand year tree crystal? To think that you even have something like this. May I be so bold as to ask, brother Lin, just Who are you?" The king of junk's eyes were wide open, and he could not stop drooling from the corner of his mouth. He looked like he had lost his soul.

"I'm not a God, but I have to show you something else. " With that, Lin Yi pulled out another piece of wood like he was performing a magic trick and handed it to the king of junk.

The king of junk took the piece of wood and looked at it carefully for a long time. Then, without a word, he fell to the ground with a thud and fainted.

Lin Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry at the scene. The 10000-year tree crystal was extremely rare, and it was a huge impact when put together with the ancient Pure Land and the 1000-year tree crystal, but the king of junk fainted on the spot. It was a little too much.

This was also because he had met someone like the king of junk who knew what was good. If it was an ordinary person, with the ten thousand year tree crystal, ancient Pure Land, and other such trashy things, they wouldn't even be able to recognize it, let alone be provoked.

After a long time, the king of junk finally woke up. He looked at the priceless items in front of him and almost fainted again.

Lin Yi quickly stopped him and joked,"Brother Wang, you're a blacksmith after all. I've only let you take a look at the materials, but you've fainted again and again. How am I supposed to ask for your help?"

Only then did the king of junk manage to calm himself down. He scratched his head awkwardly and laughed foolishly, but his eyes could not move away from the treasures such as the 10000-year tree crystal.

Lin Yi could tell that this guy didn't have any greed for it-it was pure admiration from the bottom of his heart, giving off the feeling of a believer meeting a God from the legends, with a sense of worship from the inside out.
