Beauty and the Bodyguard

"I've finally witnessed the legendary spirit beast clan today. Is this the spirit beast meet you were talking about, senior?" Lin Yi said to the ghost.

"You can say that ..." The ghastly thing's breath had obviously become a little rushed at this moment, and it said with a complicated tone,""This can't be considered a complete spirit beast meet because there are still spirit beasts from several regions that haven't arrived. However, the scale is already not small. All the spirit beasts in the vicinity have been summoned. It seems that the Vermillion Bird is really ambitious and is ready to become the Regent."

"Vermillion Bird? Which one is the Vermillion Bird?" Lin Yi looked up at the stage in surprise-it wasn't the Vermilion bird's true form, and he couldn't tell which one it was even if he knew it was on the stage. He looked at the center of the stage subconsciously.

At this moment, a mysterious man in a bamboo hat was sitting on the seat. No one knew what he looked like or what kind of spirit beast he was. They only knew that his bamboo hat was made of colorful feathers and he was the most eye-catching one among the people present. The person sitting in the middle must be the most important person. If there were no accidents, it should be the Vermilion Bird.

After all, according to the logic of most ordinary people, the Vermilion Bird, the top elder of the spirit beast clan, was powerful, but in the end, it was just a bird. It was normal and reasonable for it to like to wear beautiful feathers.

"Not that." The damn thing knew what Lin Yi was thinking and pointed out,""The one on the left of the bamboo hat man is the Vermilion Bird."

Lin Yi looked again and noticed that there were two strange-looking old men on the two seats closest to the man in the middle.

The one on the left had a face as red as blood, and his eyebrows were raised, giving people a kind of intimidating pressure. Although he was just sitting so calmly, his whole body seemed to be shrouded in fire, making people not dare to look at him directly, as if they would be burned to ashes if they were a little closer.

Although the appearance was a little strange, the Vermillion bird's true appearance and aura were not too surprising. At least in Lin Yi's eyes, it was worthy of its position as a top elder in the spirit beast clan. It made people know that it was a god-like existence standing in the clouds, not an ordinary spirit beast.

"Then who is the man in the bamboo hat in the middle and the one on his right?" Lin Yi couldn't help but be curious.

Not to mention the mysterious man in the bamboo hat, even the old man standing on his right was as strange and eye-catching as the Vermilion Bird. He had a green face and fangs, and his eyes were a bit of a piercing gold. The terrifying aura he exuded was not much weaker than the Vermilion Bird 's.

"That mysterious man in the bamboo hat seems to be the new king of spirit beasts that the Vermillion Bird has found. I wonder what kind of spirit beast he is." The ghastly thing said with a sigh.

He had fallen into such a miserable state in order to find the bloodline of the king of spirit beasts in the secular world. It would be a lie if he said that he did not doubt the new king of spirit beasts that had suddenly appeared. After all, the Vermillion bird's reputation had always been bad. Moreover, there were too many tricks to threaten the Emperor and order his vassals.

If it wasn't for the current situation, the demonic thing would definitely go up and test the new king of spirit beasts 'beauty. If it found out that the bloodline was fake, he would be the first one to not let the Vermillion Bird go. However, he had the heart but no power to do anything now.

The ghastly thing paused for a moment, speechless. Then, it said in a deep voice,""As for the one on the right, I don't know him either. Is he a newly promoted elder of the Vermillion Bird?!"

From the fact that this person was standing beside the king alongside the Vermilion Bird elder, it could be seen that his status was very high. It was very likely that he was also an elder. However, the ghosts had more or less dealt with the elders of the spirit beast clan, but they had never seen such an existence. This was a completely new face.

The demonic thing could not help but fall into deep thought. From the strange scene today, he had already smelled something unusual. All kinds of signs showed that this spirit beast clan was no longer the spirit beast clan he was familiar with.

The damn thing had mixed feelings, but Lin Yi didn't think that much. He just blended in with the crowd ... No, to be more precise, among the beasts. To him, it didn't matter what happened to the spirit beasts as long as his human identity wasn't discovered.

What made Lin Yi happy was the fact that all the powerful spirit beasts around him were focused on the dancing spirit beasts in the middle of the stage. They didn't even look at him the whole time. Even when some of the spirit beasts noticed him, they just looked away.

After all, Lin Yi only had the aura of a golden core spirit beast-this little bit of strength was at the bottom of the pack. No one would waste their time on a weakling like him, let alone talk to him! If it were any other occasion where killing was allowed, it would be more appropriate to be eaten as a snack by the spirit beasts present.

No matter what, it seemed that the ghost's disguise was a success. If there were no accidents, he should be able to get through it smoothly.

In the midst of the deafening cheers, the spirit beasts in the middle who had transformed into human forms finally finished their dance and scattered into the crowd. All the spirit beasts 'eyes turned to the high platform. The dance just now was just to liven up the atmosphere. The next part was the key highlight.

Sure enough, when the focus of all the spirit beasts spontaneously shifted to the high platform, the Vermilion Bird immediately laughed and took a step forward, leaving the so-called new king of spirit beasts and other elders behind. Looking at his high-spirited appearance, people who did not know the truth would probably think that he was the king of spirit beasts.

"Very good. I'm very happy to see the spirit beast Brothers of an Luo cultivation city gather together and come from all directions to pay respects to our new king!" The Vermilion Bird opened his mouth and spoke. A scorching wave of air enveloped the entire venue as he raised his hand. While he demonstrated his absolute overwhelming strength, he also made the already lively atmosphere even more intense.

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole place was in an uproar. All the spirit beasts, no matter if they were in human form or beast form, knelt down on the ground spontaneously, shouting "Long Live the King" while prostrating themselves on the ground.

These were all powerful and unruly spirit beasts, and any one of them could cause chaos in the South continent sea. Lin Yi thought that with their temperament, even if they obeyed the so-called new king of spirit beasts, it would only be a formality at most. He didn't expect them to kneel on their own accord.

It was rare to see such a scene of prostrating themselves in front of the spirit beast clan, even in the strictly-ordered human sects. It was clear that the spirit beast clan was not as scattered as ordinary people imagined. (To be continued.)
