Beauty and the Bodyguard

Lin Yi sighed to himself. Just from the cool aura alone, this thing was definitely extraordinary. It really lived up to the name of Star Ink milk.

However, when he and Huang xiaotao squatted down beside the stone pool and reached into the spirit Jade bottle to scoop up the star Ink milk, the two of them were stunned.

The star Ink milk was black, so it was hard to see the bottom. Lin Yi thought there was a lot left, but after putting the Jade bottle in, he realized that there was only a shallow bottom!

This Foundation couldn't be any more shallow. It was almost only a thin layer and couldn't be contained in a spirit Jade bottle. No matter how he thought of it, he could only get a few drops at most.

"What's wrong? What the hell are you doing so slowly? do you two want to secretly do something under our eyes?" Luo tuoxiang immediately questioned when he saw the two's abnormal behavior.

"Hmph, they're just two country bumpkins who haven't seen the world. They're still far from being able to do anything in front of us. We can see it at a glance!" Cao Shishi snorted coldly as she watched the two men's every move.

"Did something? Alright, show me what you've done!" Lin Yi didn't want to bother with the two at first, but he realized that he'd been tricked. He was in a really bad mood as he replied coldly.

Chang Daoping and the other six had each filled a bottle of Star Ink milk, but he and Huang xiaotao didn't even get a single bottle. This was clearly tricking the two of them into doing hard work for free. No matter who it was, they wouldn't be in a good mood at this moment!

Lin Yi had a feeling that he was tricked by Chang Daoping, but he didn't find anything out of the ordinary from the beginning to the end. Everything was going according to plan, and he couldn't say anything unless he had solid evidence.

Besides, with the opponent's nascent soul strength and Luo tuoxiang's group, even if Lin Yi and Huang xiaotao wanted to fall out, they'd have to think twice.

"Actually ... They really can't do anything to it, because when I was filling up the bottle, the star Ink milk was already empty, not even filling up my bottle, so ..." Fang miaojin suddenly spoke up. She was in front of Lin Yi and Chang Daoping, and she was the last of the six.

"We've reached the bottom?" Hearing this, Cao Shishi and the others were stunned. They quickly walked over and tried it on themselves. After that, they were no longer suspicious.

After that, the way they looked at Lin Yi and Huang xiaotao suddenly turned into gloating.

In their eyes, Lin Yi and Lin Yi were just two weak country bumpkins. They were just lucky enough to be chosen by Chang bro and got the chance to explore the ruins. How could the two of them be on the same level as them and get the star Ink milk?

Hmph, he's really a Toad lusting after a Swan's meat. Now, even the heavens can't bear to see this. The star Ink milk that was so close to his hands had been turned into nothing. He deserved it!

"Hehe, this is the will of the heavens. It seems that the two of you are destined to have no fate with the star Ink milk! Wahahaha!" Everyone's faces were filled with undisguised mockery, all of them smiling coldly. This time, it wasn't just Lin Yi, even the gentle Huang xiaotao couldn't take it anymore.

Lin Yi couldn't help but clench his fists-the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. If he hadn't seen the star Ink milk before, he wouldn't have been so upset, but now that he'd let it slip by, he was already feeling extremely bad. He even suspected that Chang Daoping and the others had done something to it.

Now that he was faced with the mockery of the crowd, he could not help but want to fall out with them.

Everyone saw Lin Yi's dark expression, but they didn't care at all. They were just two early golden core country bumpkins-they wouldn't dare to get angry even if they had ten times the courage!

If he dared to? That's even better. In any case, there won't be any future trouble, so he might as well directly kill them here with a slap and end all troubles!

"I'm really sorry. I didn't expect that it would be gone when it's your turn. " Chang Daoping finally spoke up, not gloating like the others did. He had a regretful expression on his face, as if he truly felt sorry for Lin Yi and Lin Yi.

Cao Shishi and the others wanted to continue mocking them, especially since Luo tuoxiang was planning to force Lin Yi and Lin Yi to do something desperate so that he could kill them with a slap, but now that Chang Daoping had spoken, they naturally had no right to speak.

After all, they did not know Chang Daoping's true thoughts. If they spoke nonsense and accidentally went against brother Chang's wishes, they would be asking for trouble.

Lin Yi looked deeply at Chang Daoping-the guy was calm and didn't look like he was putting on an act at all. Lin Yi couldn't help but wonder if his intuition was wrong. Could it be that this person didn't do anything, and this was just a pure coincidence?

With Lin Yi's wariness, it would be hard for him to not notice if someone wanted to hide something from him.

Lin Yi had always thought that after passing through the moon Shadow formation and entering the ruins, the two of them wouldn't be of any value to Chang Daoping anymore. He'd probably do something about it and not let them share the star Ink milk.

But the truth was that Lin Yi didn't feel any killing intent from Chang Daoping, not even the Jade-this completely overturned Lin Yi's guess.

They didn't know that Chang Daoping did have the intention to kill them, but it was just a flash and he quickly hid it.

Of course, Chang Daoping couldn't just let Lin Yi and Lin Yi get the star Ink milk just like that. Even a little bit of it was a big loss for him, but that didn't mean he had to kill them. He just had to do something in the process and the problem would be solved perfectly, just like this "coincidence" right now.

"However, you don't need to worry. The speed at which the star Ink milk is dripping isn't very slow. I believe that as long as you wait here for a few days, even if you can't fill a bottle, you can at least get half a bottle. It's much better than nothing." Chang Daoping continued faintly, as if he was really thinking for the two.

Lin Yi was even more confused now, but Chang Daoping wasn't wrong. He'd already seen three drops of Star Ink milk on the statue's tip, and at this rate, he'd be able to collect at least half a bottle in a few days.

"Brother Chang, I have a question. Since the speed at which the star Ink milk is dripping isn't slow, why is there so little of it in this pool? you only filled six small bottles before directly drinking it up. This doesn't make sense, right?" Lin Yi asked after some hesitation. (To be continued.) "If you like this work, you're welcome to come to Qidian.com to give your recommendation and monthly vote.
