Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Otherwise, you might as well not go to the ten thousand year Grand Canyon, and they won't be able to stop you. However, this way, it will be very difficult to gain anything from this trial. In my opinion, you should just obediently do as you are told. This way, you should be able to earn back your capital when you enter the ten thousand year Grand Canyon, and maybe even have a burst of luck!" Another person said with hope in his heart.

"Are you stupid? How dare you believe Scarface's vicious words? There are indeed good things in the ten thousand year Canyon, but do you think you can just pick up those natural treasures? you can't even imagine how many terrifying things there are. Even if you can enter, it's hard to say if you can come out alive, and you still want to earn back your investment?" Someone next to him scoffed.

"That's right, do you know how big Scarface's appetite is? Even if you went in, even if you were really lucky enough to find something good, wouldn't he search again when you came out? would he let you go so easily? Can't you use some of your brain?" The people at the side echoed.

Hearing this, the nearby cultivators 'faces turned extremely ugly. This was the truth. Scarface was definitely not a kind and honest person. If he let you in, he would plunder everything. If he let you out, he would also plunder everything. This was something that could be thought of even with his toes. They were all working for him for free, and they had to risk their lives. What was the point of doing this?!

"What else is there to say? we can only avoid this damn place. Even if the harvest is less, it's better than sending it to the door for Scarface to plunder. I'm not stupid!" Some people immediately had the intention to retreat.

Many people had the same thought, but not all of them were willing to retreat. After all, once they retreated, they would only be able to find a needle in a haystack in the desert. It was better to take a risk and seek wealth in danger!

Sure enough, while everyone was talking in low voices, a man in gray suddenly jumped out of the crowd, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

"I'm Duan Wuzong of the Nakajima thousand-blade sect. I don't have any valuable treasures on me, and that's why I have to go to the ten-thousand-year Grand Canyon. I hope you can make it easy for me. I believe you don't want to fight to the death over such a small matter, right? it won't look good for either of us." As the man in gray spoke, he revealed a powerful and overbearing aura. He was an expert at the peak of the original level.

Duan Wuzong's appearance immediately caused an uproar. Everyone's eyes were wide open. The reason they had been stuck here was because they lacked a leader, but he had finally appeared.

"Yo, it seems like a tough one has come, and he's ready to challenge me all by himself?" Scarface glanced at Duan Wuzong in disdain.

"I don't dare. Whether the others live or die has nothing to do with me. I just want to trouble you to open the door for convenience. After all, if we really fight, it's not a good thing for you and me if both sides are injured. Maybe someone will take advantage of the chaos, don't you think?" Duan Wuzong's tone was filled with undisguisable pride.

"Hehe, this guy is going to step into a mine." Lin Yi shook his head with a faint smile. Judging from his aura, this Duan Wuzong from the thousand blades sect was indeed a rare master. He was one of the most outstanding ones among the peak nascent soul realm cultivators, so it was normal for him to have such pride and confidence. Unfortunately, his opponent was a peak early mysterious Ascension realm cultivator, after all, and he wouldn't fall for this trick.

"You're not optimistic about him?" Huo yudie couldn't help but ask curiously. In her opinion, this person was very strong. Just as he said, if they really fought, even if both sides didn't end up badly injured, he would definitely cause a lot of trouble for Scarface. Scarface might really let him go because he was afraid of him.

"Of course, Scarface and his gang are small in number, so they're only able to suppress so many people by intimidating them. If he were to be the first, do you think so many people here would still be trembling in fear and not dare to move? Once the situation goes out of control, even Scarface will not be able to control it. Then, he will be a complete failure as the King of the Mountain. " Lin Yi analyzed.

"What will he do?" Huo yudie asked thoughtfully.

"Of course we'll annihilate this Duan Wuzong with lightning speed. As long as we can establish our might in one fell swoop, no one here will dare to resist him anymore. They'll just obediently allow him to loot the place." Lin Yi smiled faintly. He didn't think about himself when he said that. A peak early stage mysterious Ascension realm master might be a threat to others, but he had killed a mysterious Ascension realm master before, and it was an instant kill.

Scarface made his decision before Lin Yi could finish his sentence. He laughed,"Hahahaha, I've occupied this place for so many years, and not many people have dared to threaten me in my face. You're interesting, Duan, but unfortunately, you've made the wrong decision. Hmph, do you think I'm a coward who's afraid of being threatened?"

After saying that, the scar-faced man suddenly let out a long howl and immediately attacked.

Duan Wuzong was shocked to see this. He hadn't stepped forward to clash head-on with the Scarface. He had only wanted to make the latter feel that he wasn't to be trifled with and retreat in the face of difficulties. Who would've thought that the Scarface wouldn't even spare him a glance? now that he was in a situation where he couldn't back down, he could only brace himself and accept the challenge.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

With a series of ear-piercing metal clanging sounds, a pile of divine weapons suddenly appeared on Duan Wuzong's body. He had all kinds of swords, Spears, and halberds, and there were thirteen of them in total. It was unknown how he carried them around, but they all hovered around him in an astonishing formation.

The crowd instantly gasped. Although they had yet to officially fight, Duan Wuzong was indeed powerful. It was truly inconceivable that he could control thirteen weapons at the same time. If an ordinary expert were to fight him, wouldn't they be killed by these weapons in a matter of minutes?

"I've long heard that the thousand blades sect's martial arts techniques are unique. It's said that the stronger the disciples of the thousand blades sect are, the more weapons they can control. When they reach their limit, they may even be able to launch a thousand blades at once. Today, I've seen it for myself. It's indeed well-deserved." Huo yudie sighed.

"Hehe, it's indeed interesting." Lin Yi's interest was piqued-he'd seen all sorts of practitioners before, but this was the first time he'd seen someone control a dozen weapons at once.

"I'll say it for the last time. If you let me go, we'll be fine. Otherwise, the situation will become chaotic later. There are so many people here, and the situation is not something you can control!" Unless absolutely necessary, Duan Wuzong still didn't want to use weapons.

Although he was confident in his own strength, it would be impossible for him to defeat a peak-level early mysterious Ascension realm expert! (To be continued.)
