Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Please," Xu lingchong had to signal for Lou Tianyou and the others to let them go, his eyes mocking them. The show had just started, and the whole birthday party was planned by him. It would be as easy as flipping his hand if he wanted to punish Lin Yi. There would be plenty of opportunities to do so in the future.

After letting Lin Yi in with a cold smile, Xu lingchong and the others quickly bowed to Gongyang Jie, their faces full of joy,"Hall Master Gongyang, please come in!"

Entering the interior of Huayang residence, the originally rich and magnificent Hall became even more dreamy and dreamy because of the careful decorations everywhere. It was like a paradise for Immortals.

At this moment, although many of the top big shots had yet to appear, many of them had already arrived in advance and were exchanging greetings with each other to build up their friendship. None of the people who could come here today were ordinary people, and this was the best opportunity to expand their network.

However, Lin Yi obviously didn't have such thoughts. After looking around, he didn't find Shangguan LAN 'er, the main character of the birthday party, so he found a quiet corner and sat down, drinking the free high-end spiritual tea, which was quite pleasant.

Gongyang Jie was different from Lin Yi, who no one was talking to. He was the center of attention, but no one dared to talk to him because of his pride and reputation.

Lin Yi looked around and saw Gongyang Jie walking towards him. He sat down in front of Lin Yi without saying anything.

What was this person trying to do? Lin Yi couldn't help but think to himself, but after the man sat down, he didn't do anything else. He just lay lazily on the wide chair and looked at the people and things in the hall with cold eyes.

Lin Yi looked at the man without making a sound. Seeing that the man didn't move, he ignored him and sat there with his arms crossed, his expression relaxed.

The two of them sat opposite each other. Because of Gongyang Jie, almost everyone in the audience couldn't help but glance at them and then silently look away. They were afraid that Gongyang Jie would be dissatisfied if they looked at them for a long time.

After a long while, Gongyang Jie suddenly said, "What's your relationship with Zhang Liju?"

Lin Yi blinked, but returned to normal."Hall Master Gongyang, you must be joking. Master Zhang is a top figure in Nakajima. I'm just a rookie. How could I have any relationship with him?"

To his surprise, Gongyang Jie said, "You're lying. "

Lin Yi didn't know what to say-he was lying, but even Liju himself didn't know about his relationship with him, and he'd never told anyone about it. How could Gongyang Jie know?

"First, you and Zhang Liju are both from the common world. Second, you and Zhang Liju are both alchemists. Third, you've asked around for news about Zhang Liju since we came to Sky Class Island. How can you say that's fine?" Gongyang Jie rested his chin on his hand as he glanced at Lin Yi.

Lin Yi was shocked. He didn't think that a rookie like him would be investigated so thoroughly by the high and mighty head of the Hall of Justice. He was flattered.

"It's meaningless to lie in front of me. " For some reason, Gongyang Jie was quite talkative. He lazily pointed at his head and said,"All the information from the law enforcement Hall is reflected in my mind. If necessary, I can use the soul-searching technique at any time. Do you want to try it?"

"I don't want to. Why is Hall Master Gongyang looking for me? if you have something to say, just tell me." Lin Yi lowered his voice.

"Hahaha!" Gongyang Jie immediately laughed."Stop making people laugh, kid. What business do I have with an ant-like newbie like you?" Don't worry, I'm not so bored as to use a soul-searching technique on you, I'm just curious about your relationship with Zhang Liju. "

Lin Yi was silent for a moment before replying faintly, "I'm not related to master Zhang Liju at all-if I have to say I am, then I'm just looking for his help to save someone. "

"To save the inheritors of the secular world? I didn't know that you're such a sentimental person, but it doesn't matter. If you see Zhang Liju, please help me pass on a message. " After saying that, Gongyang Jie's eyes suddenly turned cold and sharp, which made people's hair stand on end,"Tell him that I'll pay him back a hundred times for the humiliation of my defeat back then. Tell him not to worry, that day won't be too far away."

"Alright," he said. Lin Yi's face didn't change, but his heart was in a state of shock. This was the first time he heard that Gongyang Jie had fought with Zhang Liju!

With Zhang Liju's legendary history, it was normal for someone as strong as Gongyang Jie to lose to him. What shocked Lin Yi even more was that Gongyang Jie had the confidence to take revenge against Zhang Liju, who was now one of the top bosses in Nakajima. How strong was he?

Lin Yi couldn't sense Gongyang Jie's strength at all, but he could tell from the way he treated the higher-ups that this man was no small fry. His strength was probably way above the normal elders!

Such an extraordinary figure was worthy of being called the number one of the new generation of the three pavilions.

As the two were talking, Lin Yi saw a few people coming in from the corner of his eye. They were all familiar faces that he didn't want to see the most.

In a group of three people, Yu Zhe was at the back, followed by South Heaven Gate, and at the front was an extremely handsome middle-aged man. He was the leader of the Nan family's three heroes, Nan Tianba.

Along the way, South Heaven Gate said in a low voice,""Boss, did you see that kid beside Xu lingchong? that's Kang Zhaoming! I'm starting to suspect that he's that Lin er!"

"I think so too. If Kang Zhaoming didn't give Xu lingchong something as good as the star inkstone, would Xu lingchong support a newbie like him so much and even bring him out to welcome guests?" hou Zhe chimed in.

Strictly speaking, even Yu Zhe, an inner sect disciple with an average background, wasn't qualified to receive the guests at miss Shangguan's birthday party, much less a mere Kang Zhaoming. Yu Zhe was very jealous of him.

Nan Tianba, who was walking in front, nodded slightly and muttered,""It's indeed a little unusual, but we've already made an agreement with Xu lingchong. He'll be promoted to the position of big senior brother, and second will be under his Grandpa Xu Yuanzheng's wing in name. He'll just need to focus on breaking through in isolation and become his direct disciple. Since Kang Zhaoming is under him, it'll be hard to explain if we test him out, right?" (To be continued.)
