Beauty and the Bodyguard

4735 A letter from the higher-ups

Gongyang Jie and LAN Tiefu's gazes, however, were filled with a deeper meaning that no one could understand. It wasn't that they felt it was a pity for a genius like Lin Yi to die-they were both looking at Lin Yi with a heavy heart.

Other than these people, the rest of the people were a little excited, but they didn't care about it. After all, neither Lin Yi nor Huo yudie had anything to do with them, and they didn't gather here for them.

To them, Lin Yi's death didn't matter at all. They only cared about one thing, and that was who would have the last laugh in this trial and become the son-in-law of the West Island Lord, ning Shangling!

Today was the objective deadline for the trial, and it was also the time to check the gains of all the participants. If everything went well, it was very likely that the results would be out today, which was why ning Shangling had appeared in person.

However, the incident had happened so suddenly that the protagonist, ning Xuefei, had suffered a blow. Her face had turned pale and she could barely stand. She had to rely on han Jingjing and Shangguan LAN 'er to support her. As an important guest, the leader of the East Province Academy, Liu Ziyu, also looked worried and was obviously not in her right state.

Under such circumstances, it was obviously not appropriate to continue with the original plan. Ning Shangling pondered for a moment and changed her mind. She then ordered the Vice Island master, Yan Xinlan, to announce,"Everyone, please take out your spoils of war from this trial. We have specialized personnel to record them all. After this, everyone can go back and rest. We will choose a day and invite guests to judge. As for the subsequent developments, please go back and wait patiently for news."

The crowd was disappointed. They had thought that the results would be out today. They did not expect to have to wait. To those who thought that they had a chance to stand out, the waiting process was undoubtedly a torture.

However, since Yan Xinlan had already announced it in front of everyone, the wood has already been made into a boat. It was useless for them to object. In fact, no one dared to object. At most, they would only grumble in private. After the West Island disciples came over to record their spoils, they left the venue one after another.

As soon as they returned to their room, lingchong and Zhaoming hadn't even sat down to catch their breath when a blood bat came flying at them, carrying a mysterious man's letter.

"You have to give us an explanation for what happened to Lin Yi, or you'll have to bear the consequences!" The tone of the letter was extremely stern. This time, there was no code. It was clear that the mysterious man was truly angry.

Lingchong and Zhaoming's eyes twitched when they saw the words. It was just a sentence, and it didn't seem that scary, but the person who said it was the mysterious man. The words were the deciding factor of their life and death.

Lingchong and Zhaoming didn't doubt it at all-if they couldn't come up with a reasonable explanation this time, they'd be in deep trouble, and might even lose their lives.

"What do we do? Quickly think of a way!" Xu lingchong's voice was sharp as he looked at Kang Zhaoming unkindly. If he couldn't find a good reason, he was prepared to use this kid as a scapegoat. Only then could he escape this.

"Yes, yes, young master Xu, don't worry. There will be a way. There must be a way!" Zhaoming's heart skipped a beat. He wasn't a smart person, but he was a smart one, especially when it came to things like this. He knew what lingchong was thinking just by looking at his eyes.

"It's best if you can think of a way. Otherwise, if the higher-ups really want to investigate, one of us will have to die. You decide for yourself." Xu lingchong said coldly.

"Yes, yes!" Zhaoming's forehead was covered in sweat as he looked at the killing intent in the man's eyes. He had an idea."I got it, young master Xu, I have an idea!"

"What is it? Hurry up and tell me!" Xu lingchong hurriedly urged.

"Young master Xu, look, although Lin Yi's injuries are serious, he's still alive. This means that he's probably not going to die. I know this guy very well, his life force is very strong. This has happened a few times before and he didn't die, so it's definitely going to be the same this time. If he really can't make it, why is that girl still guarding him?" Kang Zhaoming nervously licked his lips as he carefully analyzed.

"That makes sense!" Lingchong Xu's eyes lit up-as long as they could prove that Lin Yi wasn't dead, then the higher-ups wouldn't be so hung up on this, and they'd be able to escape. She nodded,"Alright, I'll reply as you said!"

After the two of them sent the letter out, they stayed in the room and waited for the mysterious person's reply. If they couldn't even answer to this, they would really have to bear the consequences.

After waiting in fear and trepidation for a long time, the blood bat finally arrived. They impatiently opened the mysterious person's letter. There was only one sentence on it: For the sake of the Thunder mystical vine, he would not do it again.

Xu lingchong and Kang Zhaoming looked at each other and let out a long breath. They sat on the ground like deflated balls and didn't move for a long time. They were really scared this time, but luckily they escaped.

They were fine, but on the other hand, ning Xuefei fainted as soon as she returned to the palace. She was under too much pressure. Even though Han Jing Jing had comforted her softly, it was to no avail. She had been able to hold on on on the way, but when she returned to her room, she felt dizzy and immediately passed out.

This scene had given ning Shangling a huge shock. She quickly examined ning Xuefei carefully and found that there was nothing abnormal about her body other than a slight fever. As long as she had a good sleep, she would be better. This was when the island Lord of the West Island finally heaved a sigh of relief.

With Shangguan LAN 'er and han Jingjing by her side, ning Shangling was not worried at all. She immediately led her men out of the room. She could not stay by ning Xuefei's side personally. As the island master of the West Island, she still had many things to do, such as comforting Liu Ziyu who was also anxious.

Han Jing Jing and Shangguan LAN 'er were also worried, but they were better off than ning Xuefei. As long as Lin Yi was alive, it was enough for them.

However, ning Xuefei was different. This incident was too much of a blow and pressure to her. Not only did she lose someone to rely on for her lifelong event, but she also blamed herself!
