Beauty and the Bodyguard

Most people would've been pissed off by the crowd's taunting, but Lin Yi remained calm and focused on "pulling the grass." He didn't have any intention of speaking, treating everyone like air.

On the other hand, although Huang xiaotao was a little nervous, she was not a hot-tempered person. Even if she was ridiculed in front of others, it was a common thing in the past when she was disfigured, so she did not take it to heart.

Chang bro didn't really care about Lin Yi and Lin Yi at first, but after seeing their reactions, he couldn't help but think a little more highly of them. It was rare to see someone able to keep their cool even after being mocked by so many people.

If it was someone else in their position, they wouldn't dare to fight back because of their strength, but they wouldn't be as calm as Lin Yi and Lin Yi. Even with Chang bro's experience, he was impressed by Lin Yi and Lin Yi's composure.

"Alright, everyone, stop laughing. Who doesn't have a time when they're newbies? We've all been through that stage, there's no need to be so sarcastic. " Chang bro waved his hand at the crowd, exuding the aura of a nascent Soul Master. Everyone fell silent before he turned to Lin Yi and Lin Yi,"The two of you, it looks like this is your first time in Lufeng forest, right?"

"That's right, it's our first time here. " Lin Yi raised his head to look at him, his tone neutral.

"Yo, kid, you've got some balls. You still dare to act tough in front of our brother Chang!" The peak late-stage golden core follower jumped out and rolled up his sleeves, ready to teach Lin Yi a lesson.

However, brother Chang only gave him a look, and the underling immediately retreated in embarrassment, not even daring to complain.

This person's accumulated prestige was very heavy! Lin Yi already knew that this guy wasn't simple, and he was even more certain of it now. People with a lot of power were usually very controlling people-if things went according to their wishes, then everything would be fine, but if things went against their wishes and got out of their control, then it'd be big trouble.

"Although what they said just now wasn't pleasant to the ears, there's one thing they were right about. Listen to my advice, the spirit herbs on the side may look good, but even if you fill ten baskets with these things, they still won't be worth as much as the ten thousand spirit Jade you paid to the teleportation array. It's not worth it at all." Brother Chang advised.

"Oh?" Lin Yi looked at Huang xiaotao in surprise. This Chang bro was surprisingly warm and friendly. He was easier to talk to than he thought.

With the common practice of mutual deception in the cultivation world, there were generally only two results if one met in a place like Lufeng forest. One was to kill and seize the treasure, or they would pass by. Very few people would take the initiative to stop and give advice like him, not to mention that this was a high and mighty Yuanying stage master.

"Thank you for your reminder, Sir. This is the first time we've come to this place, but we've been separated from our teammates. We don't dare to wander around in this dense forest, and we don't know where to go, so we can only find these spirit herbs to comfort ourselves. It's better than going back empty-handed." Lin Yi thought of an excuse on the spot.

"No wonder you guys are here to collect spiritual herbs. Normal people come here for rare treasures like the Wandu golden core fruit. It's the only way to make a good deal out of it. It's also the most famous treasure that has ever been produced in Lufeng forest." Brother Chang immediately revealed a look of understanding and said to the two with a faint smile.

"We've heard of the Wandu golden core fruit before. Of course, we want it too. Unfortunately, we don't know where to find it. Besides, we've been separated from our teammates. Even if we know where it is, we can't go there with our strength alone. " Lin Yi pretended to sigh helplessly, but he couldn't help laughing inside.

He had already obtained the Wandu golden core fruit. Wouldn't he be a fool to look for it again? He and Huang xiaotao were not insatiable.

Instead of taking the risk for nothing, it was better to take a break and get more spiritual medicine. When the time was almost up, he would go out through the teleportation array. This was the most secure way.

"That's right. In the face of the temptation of such a precious treasure, the two of you are still able to keep your hearts. It's not simple to have such self-awareness." Brother Chang praised and then said,""However, rather than wasting time here, why don't you two come with us?"

"With you guys?" Lin Yi froze and exchanged glances with Huang xiaotao. They didn't know each other, and normal people would know what their teammates wanted. They didn't expect her to suddenly make such a suggestion.

"That's right. We're preparing to go to the ruins of Audo cultivation city. The more people we have, the better. It's just a pity that only six people can teleport. I didn't expect to meet the two of you here. This is a rare fate. " Chang bro explained to the two,"If you come with us, the rewards you will get will be much better than staying here to pull grass. Moreover, you can look out for each other and your safety will be guaranteed. What do you think?"

"Oh? The ruins of The Audo cultivation city? What was that place? Could there be some treasure inside?" Lin Yi couldn't help but ask.

When he was with Chu bubai and the others, everyone's attention was only on the baby ginseng. They rarely talked about other things. As for this so-called Ao duo cultivation city ruins, they had never even heard of it.

"haven't you heard of it?" chang bro was taken aback as well-this was one of the labels of lufeng forest, but considering that it was lin yi's first time here, it wasn't strange that they'd never heard of it.

"yes, we're not locals. we're ignorant and ill-informed. please don't laugh at us." lin yi cupped his hands, surprised.

"it's nothing. the ruins of audo cultivation city was once an important city of the spirit beast clan. it was said that it was quite large at that time and was the symbol and center of power of the entire lu feng forest. however, due to some unknown reason, all the spirit beasts in audo cultivation city, from top to bottom, were punished by the king of spirit beasts. they were all sentenced to death overnight. from then on, it became a barren city, which is also what we call the ruins now. " brother chang took the initiative to explain.

Lin Yi finally understood-one of the questions that had been bothering him was finally solved.

Although Lufeng forest was located at the edge of the southern island, it was still within the territory of the southern island. Moreover, there were also powerful spirit beasts entrenched here. But why did the spirit beast clan not care about this place? (To be continued.) "If you like this work, you're welcome to come to Qidian.com to give your recommendation and monthly vote.
