Beauty and the Bodyguard

4532 Chapter 4530-getting caught

For example, if the spirit beast clan forced the Hong Chamber of Commerce's Black arc branch to pay taxes, would the Hong Chamber of Commerce headquarters not have any reaction at all? Even if the Hong Chamber of Commerce didn't have such a bad temper and directly start a war, what about the other huge forces whose interests were damaged?

There were ambitious people like the Vermilion Bird and the Azure Dragon in the spirit beast clan. Similarly, there were many such formidable human cultivators. In fact, there were many more of them than the spirit beast clan.

Perhaps they had been eyeing the spirit beast clan for a long time, but they had not been able to find a suitable excuse. Now that the spirit beast clan had taken the initiative to give them a handle, how could they let it go?

If the human cultivators and the spirit beast clan were to go to war, it would be inevitable that they would have to waste money and manpower. The stronger ones could make a fortune from the war, while the weaker ones could at least escape to a faraway place. In the end, the ones who were truly unlucky would always be the ordinary people who had not yet advanced to the heavenly Dao and had not successfully built their Foundation.

The world was difficult, and the strong preyed on the weak. This was an eternal law of nature. If one didn't have enough strength to protect themselves, no matter what happened, the final outcome would always be extremely miserable.

But all of this had nothing to do with Lin Yi-he'd always protected his own people, and he'd see injustice happen all the time, but he'd never put the world on his shoulders.

To Lin Yi, as long as it didn't affect the people around him, it didn't matter even if the spirit beasts and human cultivators really started a war. He wasn't so righteous as to stop this war. If he had enough strength, it would be fine, but since he didn't have that strength now, there was no point in talking.

"Let's go," The ghastly thing suddenly said after a moment of silence.

"Ah? Aren't you going to take a look?" Lin Yi blinked.

It was normal for him to stay out of it. After all, he was an outsider who had nothing to do with it. Not only did he have nothing to do with the spirit beast clan, but even the human cultivators might not be on his side. He came from the common world, and the cultivators of Sky Class Island never acknowledged someone like him.

However, this damned thing was different. This man was once the Azure Dragon elder of the spirit beast clan. Even if he could let go of the spirit beast clan, he would never let go of it in his heart. Now that the spirit beast clan was about to be pushed into the abyss by the Vermillion Bird, how could he turn around and leave so simply?

"I already know the Vermillion bird's intentions. What's the point of staying here? It's useless anyway, so why should I stay here and ruin my mood?" The ghastly thing smiled bitterly and said,""Besides, their attention is on the stage now. It's the best time for you to retreat. Otherwise, you'll be in danger when everyone leaves."

"Will we be discovered?" Lin Yi's heart tightened-this wasn't a joke, and if there was a risk, then leaving was the best option. He couldn't stay a second longer.

"Not necessarily, but have you forgotten where we are? "Even you so-called civilized human cultivators have been constantly killing each other, let alone the spirit beast clan ..." The demonic thing smiled bitterly and continued,""Don't be fooled by the fact that so many spirit beasts can live in harmony now. That's because there are existences like the Vermilion Bird above to suppress them. Once they leave the public eye, the situation of them eating each other can not be stopped. And you are just a golden core snack in their eyes. Any spirit beast may come to you for a meal."

"Uh, that's true." Lin Yi shrunk back in fear. He was too worried about his human identity being exposed and almost forgot about the threat. Spirit beasts never really got along with each other. Even if he was treated as a spirit beast now, he was still in danger.

While all the spirit beasts were cheering for the stage, Lin Yi started to retreat quietly. If the spirit beasts saw him, they would stop and shout with him. Plus, he was standing at the edge of the crowd, so the whole process went smoothly.

However, just as they were about to retreat into the dense forest and escape, a cold voice suddenly exploded from the high platform,""Who is so bold to leave without permission when this elder is making an announcement?"

As soon as the voice fell, all the spirit beasts 'eyes focused on the Vermilion Bird. They followed the Vermilion bird's gaze and looked at Lin Yi's head.

Suddenly becoming the center of attention, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel his scalp go numb, and his back was instantly covered in cold sweat. If this was a public place for humans, even if there were many masters, they wouldn't feel so much pressure. But the problem was that this was the spirit beast meet!

With so many powerful spirit beasts staring at him, he felt like a lamb that had accidentally entered a Wolf's Den. At least Lin Yi could keep his calm on the surface, but if it was someone with average mental strength, they would've pissed themselves on the spot.

It wasn't just Lin Yi-even the damn thing was sweating for him. He couldn't help but regret his decision to leave before the event ended, but he didn't expect that Vermilion Bird would be using his spirit sense to monitor the entire scene!

It should be known that even for a primordial soul Grandmaster like the ghastly thing, it was a huge burden to constantly monitor the entire scene with his divine sense. He had never expected that the Vermilion Bird would waste so much energy in order to completely control the spirit beast meet.

No wonder the Vermilion bird's divine sense detected Lin Yi before he even got here. This guy had been monitoring every corner.

Vermilion bird's cold eyes landed on Lin Yi. He was just about to follow up on Green Dragon's words and appoint a city Lord in public, but this kid just turned around and left at a time like this. Wasn't he looking down on him, a top-tier elder?!

Lin Yi's heart went cold as he suppressed his nervousness and turned around carefully,""Elder Vermilion Bird, I'm only going to relieve myself, and I'm not leaving on my own accord. Please understand ..."

At Lin Yi's quick-witted answer, the spirit beasts all revealed expressions of understanding. As the saying goes, people have three needs, and spirit beasts were no exception. Since they wanted to relieve themselves, they naturally had to find a hidden place-this was a logical answer.

Although spirit beasts were not as particular as humans, and under normal circumstances, it was fine to relieve themselves in public, but this situation was obviously not appropriate. Moreover, most of the spirit beasts present had taken on human forms, so doing this kind of thing in public was a little shameful. (To be continued.)
