Beauty and the Bodyguard

"How is that possible?" Zheng dongjue did not give up. He went forward to examine his grandson's body personally. However, judging from the various signs on his body, especially the burns that were clearly caused by alchemy fire, any professional Alchemist could tell that Zheng Tianjie had died from a furnace explosion.

This time, Zheng dongjue himself had nothing to say, and he fell to the ground in a daze.

If Zheng Tianjie had been killed by him, then no matter how he acted up, no matter how he pursued the matter, he would not be in the wrong. However, Zheng Tianjie had died from an explosion while he was refining pills. Other than blaming himself for being stupid, who else could he blame?

Tianshuo let out a breath of relief. As long as it had nothing to do with Lin Yi, it didn't matter how Zheng Tianjie died. He deserved to die!

However, after a moment of silence, Zheng dongjue suddenly stood up and said,""Any Alchemist would never refine pills in a strange place unless they have no other choice. They are afraid of accidents such as exploding furnaces. Now, I want to know why Tianjie suddenly wanted to refine pills on the northernmost Island for no reason."

"This ..." The people who went to the northernmost Island couldn't help but focus their eyes on Tian Gang.

Tian Gang was shocked. He was worried about Lin Yi just now, but he was in danger now. Zheng dongjue wasn't a good person to begin with, and now he was immersed in the pain of losing his grandson. He could do anything if he took his anger out on him!

"Is it because of you, you B * tch?" Zheng dongjue's eyes immediately turned cold.

Of course, he knew very well what kind of person his grandson was. In the beginning, for the sake of this woman from the secular world, he had coaxed and pestered her without caring about his dignity. He had even wanted him to put down his old face to arrange a marriage for him. In order to please this B * tch, he had opened a furnace and refined pills on the northernmost Island. Only Zheng Tianjie would do such a stupid thing.

Zheng dongjue's expression was unfriendly as he closed in on Tian Gang step by step. He had already found this lowly woman from the secular world an eyesore. Now, she had even caused the death of his most valued grandson. How could such a scourge continue to remain in the pill Hall?

"Vice Hall Master, Zheng Tianjie clearly died because he accidentally blew up his furnace while refining pills. If you want to put the blame on a woman like Huang 'er, wouldn't it be a little unpleasant to say?" Lianxin saw that the situation was bad and quickly stepped forward to block in front of Tian Gang.

"Hmph, you didn't teach my disciple well, and I haven't even settled the score with you yet, yet you still dare to stand out and protect my traitorous disciple. My great grandson died in the hands of you two B * tches, the heavens are really blind! Men, capture the two of them for this Hall Master and serve them with the hall!" Zheng dongjue ordered with a wave of his hand in an extremely overbearing manner.

Lianxin and Tian Gang looked at each other, their hearts sinking to the bottom of the valley at the same time. Now that Hall Master Zhang Liju wasn't around, and the few in-name disciples with extraordinary status were not involved, the entire Hall of alchemy had become Zheng dongjue's one word. If he was really captured and punished with the law, his cultivation and divine sense would be crippled, the consequences would be unimaginable.

However, if they dared to resist in public now, their crime would be even more serious. No one would dare to say no even if they were to be killed on the spot.

Just as the two of them were in a dilemma, a voice came from the door, causing everyone to stop."You want to punish us just because you're venting your anger on us? I don't even know when our pill Hall became the black nightmare gang."

The voice came from the door, but when the crowd reacted, the figure was already in the middle of the hall. He was dressed in a familiar black Bagua robe, looking like an immortal, extraordinary. It was the head of the pill Hall, the legendary pill God and medical Saint, Zhang Liju!

"Greetings, Hall Master!" Everyone present knelt down at the same time and respectfully kowtowed in greeting. Even Zheng dongjue, who had always been high and mighty, could only stiffen his old face and obediently pay his respects.

Zhang Liju, the pill God and medical Saint, was not only a legend in the outside world, but also a god-like figure in the hall of pills. All the disciples worshipped him from the bottom of their hearts, and his prestige and popularity were far beyond that of the Vice Hall Master Zheng dongjue.

Zhang Liju had always been a mysterious person. When he was out, Zheng dongjue could do whatever he wanted, but now that he was back, Zheng dongjue didn't even dare to let out a fart. Zhang Liju didn't even need to do anything, just a word from him and Zheng dongjue would knock him down to the ground.

"All of you, rise." Zhang Liju waved his hand and looked at Lianxin and Tiangang, "Don't be afraid. Our Hall of alchemy is a place for alchemy. As long as you don't betray your Masters or destroy your ancestors, no one will dare to do anything to you."

Lianxin and Tian Gang were overjoyed. They nodded and said,""Yes, thank you for showing mercy, Hall Master."

Zheng dongjue gritted his teeth in anger, but there was nothing he could do. Even if he had ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare to refute Zhang Liju's words in public. He could only hold his nose and endure it.

With that, Zhang Liju turned to look at Zheng Tianjie's body and let out a surprised "huh". Looking at the wounds on the body, he couldn't help but think about it, and a playful smile appeared on his face.

Zheng dongjue thought that Zhang Liju had found out something was wrong-it was related to his grandson's death, and he didn't dare to be careless,"Hall Master, is there anything wrong?"

"Wrong?" Zhang Liju glared at him,"of course not!" He's already a fourth-grade Alchemist, yet he still died from an exploding furnace. When did our pill Hall's standards become so bad? Zheng dongjue, there's a problem with your management!"

"Gah? "I ..." Zheng dongjue almost choked to death when he heard this. He could not hide the gloominess and resentment on his face. 'My F * cking grandson has been blown to death, and I still have problems with management?'

However, Zheng dongjue didn't dare to say no in front of Zhang Liju. He had to admit it,"Hall master's criticism is right. I will try my best to improve in the future and not let Hall Master down!"

Tian Gang, who was watching Zheng dongjue's defeat, was secretly happy, but at the same time, he was a little puzzled. From Zhang Liju's reaction, he seemed to have noticed something, but for some reason, he didn't say anything.

He didn't know that Zhang Liju did find something strange on Zheng Tianjie's body. As the recognized Divine doctor, no matter how well Lin Yi disguised himself, he couldn't hide it from Zhang Liju's eyes.

What confused Liju the most was how well the injuries were disguised. This was just the surface, but with his eyes, he could clearly see that these injuries weren't as simple as just being burned by the fire. Only by combining it with a shocking amount of pure Qi could it leave such a wound on a golden core stage cultivator! (To be continued.)
