Beauty and the Bodyguard

The two of them swept through the area, and in just the time it took for an incense stick to burn, they had uprooted more than half of the surrounding area, leaving almost no grass behind.

This place could be said to be a natural spirit herb garden. There were spirit herbs everywhere. Not only were there a variety of them, but they were also of excellent color. If it were others, they would have to work for at least a few days before they could collect all of them.

However, with Lin Yi and Huang xiaotao's terrifying efficiency, they would probably be done in another incense's time. They didn't even look at what herbs they were and just pulled them out without any protection.

After Huang Xiao Tao pulled it out, the only thing Lin Yi had to do was to put the herbs away and plant them in the Jade space. Then, they would all be complete.

As the two were busy, Lin Yi frowned. He heard rustling sounds from the distance, and he could tell that it was footsteps approaching.

"From the sound, it should be people, and there's more than one of them. What should we do?" Huang xiaotao noticed Lin Yi's expression and quickly realized that she was no less familiar with the forest than Lin Yi.

"It's fine. Let's continue with our work. Don't worry about it." Lin Yi smiled faintly, not planning on leaving at all. The herbs here weren't rare, but it was better than nothing. There was a lot of space in the Jade space anyway.

Besides, Lin Yi had another layer of consideration. If he and Huang xiaotao deliberately avoided them, if they were noticed by the other side, they might think that they had obtained some kind of treasure, which was why he had a guilty conscience.

Instead of inviting trouble, it was better to continue pulling the grass naturally. In any case, there were many cultivators exploring Lufeng forest now. If there was no conflict of interest, the other party would not take the initiative to make trouble.

Of course, in order to hide the existence of the Jade space, Lin Yi took the basket from the side and put all the herbs he was going to collect into it. It didn't matter if Huang xiaotao knew about the Jade space, but it would be bad if it was an outsider.

The two continued to pull the grass, and a while later, a group of people appeared in front of them. Lin Yi raised his head to look at them-four men and two women, a total of six people. They must've come in the same group.

From the six people's expressions and auras, it was easy to tell that the leader of the six should be the middle-aged man in the green robe who walked in the middle.

This person's figure and appearance were nothing out of the ordinary. At first glance, he looked ordinary, and his temperament seemed to be no different from Guo dengtao 's. However, if one paid close attention, one would find that this person was full of spirit. His slightly ordinary appearance actually had a heroic spirit. In particular, this person's eyes were extremely sharp, like a sharp knife. Anyone who was casually looked at by him could not help but tremble in fear.

More importantly, out of the six, only this green robed middle aged man's strength was something Lin Yi's golden finger couldn't see through. In other words, this person was at least at the original level.

As for the other five, they were all experts in the Aurous core stage. The strongest was at the peak of the late Aurous core stage, and the weakest was at the middle Aurous core stage.

Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. The strength of this team in front of him was more than a level stronger than his and Chu bubai's team. They were on completely different levels.

However, after thinking about it carefully, only a small team like this would dare to enter the depths of Lufeng forest. Otherwise, a small team like Chu bubai would not be able to reach the core area without that route map.

While Lin Yi and Lin Yi were observing the person, the person had noticed them as well. The person looked at the basket filled with herbs and what the two were doing, and they all started laughing.

As if they had seen some unbelievable comical scene, the people who came laughed out loud, their faces full of undisguised ridicule and disdain.

"Brother Chang, during this period of time in Lufeng forest, there are really all kinds of people. There's actually such a country bumpkin who has never seen the world. He could have come here for anything, but he's actually squatting here to pull grass. It's really funny!" An extremely flirtatious-looking woman had half of her body in the arms of a middle-aged man in a green robe, covering her mouth as she laughed in front of Lin Yi and Lin Yi.

Lin Yi looked at her indifferently. This woman was a late-stage golden core cultivator, not bad. She seemed to be close to the leader, Chang bro. They were probably cultivation partners.

"Hahahaha, exactly! Brother Chang, I dare to bet that these two people must be from some cultivator tribe that has never seen the world. They just saw some common spiritual herbs and thought they were good treasures!" Another man laughed as well, pointing at Lin Yi and Lin Yi."I say, even if the two of you fill up this basket, you won't be able to earn back the 10000 spiritual Jade travel fee for the teleportation array. It's all in vain. I really don't know what's wrong with your brains!"

This person's strength was at the peak of the late jiedan stage. He was the strongest among the six people except for the leader, brother Chang. Seeing that he was so in agreement with the gorgeous woman, he was obviously brother Chang's little brother, otherwise, he would not be so hard at flattering sister-in-law.

"That's right. This place isn't even the outer perimeter. They took such a big risk to come here. Everyone else is here for rare treasures, but these two are actually lying here and pulling grass. Their brains really make people speechless ..."

"Hehe, I'm very curious. Both of them are only in the early jiedan stage. How did such weak strength come in?"

"That goes without saying. It's just luck. With their little strength, it's already difficult for them to move around in the periphery of Lufeng forest, let alone in this kind of place. It's already a rare miracle that they can survive until now with all their limbs intact!"

"I don't think so. From the outer area to this place, they have to pass through the territory of several powerful spirit beasts. Even if they were lucky, they wouldn't be able to enter by themselves. Moreover, they must have gathered six people to be able to teleport in at the beginning. I guess they were probably too weak and were abandoned by their teammates ..."

"That's right, the strength of an early jiedan stage cultivator is simply a burden in Lu Feng forest. If I were their teammate, I would definitely not be willing to bring these two burdens. After gathering enough people to teleport in, of course, we parted ways!"

The crowd started chiming in one after another, mocking and ridiculing Lin Yi and Huang xiaotao mercilessly in front of them. Only the leader, Chang Ge, remained silent with a calm expression.
