Beauty and the Bodyguard

Now that he had woken up, Yu Zhe subconsciously thought that he was still in the secret room. He never thought that he had been moved without anyone knowing. Although it was still an underground secret room, it was not the same room as before.

"Then ... Who are you? Why did you bring me here?" Yu Zhe rejoiced in his heart, but immediately became vigilant again. This couldn't be the rhythm of leaving the Wolf's Den and entering The Tiger's Den, right?

This dark and cold secret chamber looked even more indestructible than Nan Tianba 's, and there was no place to escape. If this mysterious man really wanted to save him, why would he bring him to this place?

"You're quite alert. It seems that I didn't save you for nothing. " The mysterious man paused and suddenly laughed with a deeper meaning,""To be honest, I admire you very much. It's rare to see someone who can commit treason and kill his master with his own hands in this world. Just from the perspective of heart, you meet my requirements!"

"What do you mean?" Yu Zhe became more and more cautious. He moved back without a trace, trying to keep himself as far away from this mysterious person as possible.

He had indeed killed Nan tianyong with his own hands, but he still felt very guilty about this matter. Normally, he did not dare and was not willing to take the initiative to think about this matter. However, from the mysterious person's attitude, this person was actually very appreciative of this. Wasn't he a pervert?

Seeing Yu Zhe's guarded expression, the mysterious man indifferently said,""It's nothing. I only saved you because I admire you. Otherwise, you would have been cut into pieces by Nan Tianba in front of everyone! However, don't even think about running away. That's not realistic, and I don't believe you're that stupid to go out and court death. "

Speaking up to this point, the mysterious man's killing intent was almost tangible. Even if it was only for a short moment, the shock it gave Yu Zhe was engraved in his bones and engraved in his heart. This mysterious man in front of him was not an existence that Nan Tianba could match!

Yu Zhe took a deep breath. He finally recognized the current situation. What he thought just now was right. He had just left the Wolf's Den and immediately fell into an even more dangerous Tiger's Den.

"What do you want me to do, Sir?" Yu Zhe asked, staring at the figure in the dark.

The mysterious man didn't say anything, but he threw something over. It fell in front of Yu Zhe with a clink.

Yu Zhe jumped in fright, thinking it was a hidden weapon that could take his life. However, the next moment, his eyes suddenly opened wide, staring at the stone in front of him, unable to move his eyes away.

After a long time, Yu Zhe swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva and stammered in disbelief,""This ... This is star ... Star inkstone?"

"You have a good eye. That's right, this is a star inkstone, but you've already used half of it." The mysterious man nodded indifferently.

"Half of it?" Yu Zhe couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this. He carefully observed it under the dim light and realized that this star inkstone was not the one he had seen at the Hong family's business meeting before. Not only was the shape different, but the color and Foundation were also obviously weaker.

Even so, this was still a treasure that Yu Zhe had been dreaming of. The star inkstone could allow a person to perfectly break through to the strongest Jindan stage, and even if half of the star inkstone was used, the auxiliary effect would not be too bad.

Seeing Yu Zhe's greedy expression, which was as if he couldn't wait to swallow the star inkstone, the mysterious man laughed,"As long as you listen to my orders in the future, not only will you be able to keep your little life, this half of the star inkstone will also be yours. How about it?"

"This ..." Although Yu Zhe was about to lose his mind from the star inkstone, he had not completely lost his mind. He hesitated and struggled when he heard this.

"Don't worry, I won't let you suffer any losses. This star inkstone is just a small benefit I'm giving you in advance. That's all. " The mysterious man paused, and then his tone changed,""Of course, if you don't agree, it's fine. I won't kill you. I'll just return you to your rightful owner and send you back to Nan Tianba."

Yu Zhe shivered and remembered that he didn't dare to go out in his current situation. Without the protection of this mysterious person, he would immediately be dismembered.

Thinking of this, Yu Zhe didn't hesitate anymore. He immediately gritted his teeth and said,""Alright, I agree. What do you want me to do now?"

The mysterious man wasn't surprised at all and said indifferently,""There's nothing for you to do right now. You just need to focus on cultivating here and quickly increase your strength. I'll naturally inform you when I need you. "

"I understand. No matter what, thank you for saving my life. In the future, if you have any instructions, I will do my best to help you!" Yu Zhe immediately vowed and flattered.

Unexpectedly, the mysterious man sneered,""You don't have to give me that. Do you think I'll believe your cheap oath when you're someone who can kill your teacher without even blinking? Remember, don't ever play any tricks in front of me. If there's a next time, I'll make you regret not dying in Nan Tianba's hands. "

After saying that, the mysterious man's figure flickered. No one knew where he went, but he disappeared right under Yu Zhe's eyes.

It was just a simple sentence, but the feeling of being seen through was even more frightening than the killing intent just now.

However, Yu Zhe's attention quickly shifted back to the star inkstone. His various experiences had made him deeply understand that only his own strength was the foundation. Everything else was just floating clouds. This star inkstone was the Golden finger that could allow him to become an expert!

Yu Zhe's disappearance had caused a huge commotion in the three pavilions, but Lin Yi knew nothing about it. He'd been with the king of junk all this while, focusing on his forging business.

It'd been seven days since Zhaoming and Nan Tianba came looking for trouble. The most basic warming up stage was over three days ago, and now it was time for the most important part of forging.

The more powerful a divine weapon was, the higher the requirements for the forger. There could not be a single mistake during the process. Even if there was a slight deviation of half a centimeter or even half a centimeter, the final result might be very different from what was expected.

The ten-thousand-year-old tree crystal, the ancient Pure Land, and other super rare materials were also burned, becoming a pile of complete waste from then on, making people sigh with regret.

It wasn't just Lin Yi who didn't want to see such a tragic outcome, but the king of junk, who viewed forging as his life, didn't want to see it either.

In the past few months, the king of junk had put in a lot of effort into this, even more than Lin Yi, who had provided him with all the rare materials.

He'd racked his brain for countless changes to the forging plan, as well as all the other complicated and arduous preparation work. Lin Yi didn't see it with his own eyes, but he could feel the king's heart and effort. (To be continued.)
