Beauty and the Bodyguard

When he first entered the Hong Chamber of Commerce, he felt that the business here was booming. In fact, it was full of dangers. If he didn't happen to run into them, honest Chai and cui Mingshan might have been unlucky or even finished.

"In that case, doesn't that mean that all the wealthy families will definitely win?" Lin Yi asked. Since the chief refiner of the Morning Star Academy was their ally, it would be hard for the other Chambers of Commerce, including the Hong Chamber of Commerce, to compete with them in terms of high-grade elixirs. They'd definitely be in the limelight.

"Not necessarily. It's true that the rich and powerful will all have connections with the school's chief Alchemist, and it's indeed easy to get high-grade pills. However, if they take the pills refined by the morning stars school's Alchemist to auction, it's not considered much. If the morning stars school makes all the rich and powerful know how to do it, isn't that slapping their own face?" Honest Chai shook his head.

"Hehe, using the Academy's own pills to give to the rich and powerful, and then letting the rich and powerful sell them back to the Morning Star Academy at the auction. If this gets out, people will laugh their teeth off. The Academy's higher-ups probably wouldn't do such a stupid thing." Lin Yi nodded and chuckled.

"That's right, but this time, the support for the wealthy class will still be very high. In addition to the Academy's Alchemist, they also have their own channels. There are rumors that they have prepared a group of ten golden cores this time!" Honest Chai sighed, unable to hide the envy on his face.

It was no wonder that he was envious. The Golden elixir of the Yuanying stage was the main elixir in the yellow-class Sea area of the East continent. Because most of the mathematics students here were Masters of the Golden core stage and the Yuanying stage, everyone could use it, so the price naturally rose. Especially when ten pieces were put in a group at the auction, it would definitely be sold for a sky-high price.

"Only ten golden cores?" Lin Yi only smiled faintly,"Then we'll auction off five Thunder profound pills."

"Gah? What did you just say?" Honest Chai and cui Mingshan were dumbfounded. They looked at each other in disbelief, thinking that they were hallucinating.

Lin Yi smiled and took out the Thunder elixir he made at the Xiangyun school without saying anything. He placed them in front of the two, one by one. Honest Chai and cui Mingshan took in a breath of cold air every time he took out one. When all five of them were placed on the table, the two were completely dumbfounded.

"What's wrong? Not enough?" Lin Yi looked at the two.

"No... No..." Honest Chai and cui Mingshan both waved their hands.

As the manager and vice manager of the branch, they had seen the world before. Lin Yi taking out five Thunder mystical pills was already heaven-defying enough. Even the rich and powerful would compare ten golden elixirs to this. They were on completely different levels.

In the yellow-class Sea area of the East continent, the Golden elixir of gathering the nascent soul was only The Pursuit of Ordinary disciples, but the real elite disciples were all trying to break through to the xuansheng stage. The Thunder elixir was the elixir that they dreamed of, and it was something that they wanted to get at all costs.

"Still not enough? That's fine, hurry up and get some alchemy materials. I'll take this opportunity to refine some rare ones, such as beautifying pills and other materials. Hurry up. " Lin Yi ordered.

"Ah? Beautifying pill? You can even refine pills of this grade?" Honest Chai and cui Mingshan were completely shocked-they didn't know that Lin Yi was a refiner, and a rare seventh level one at that! He could've been the head refiner of the school!

"It's alright. I've only refined the Thunder profound pill before. I haven't tried the beautifying pill yet. It's a good time to try it." Lin Yi said with a smile.

"The Vice President is truly an expert!" Honest Chai and cui Mingshan looked at each other with the words 'I'm convinced' written on their faces!

They were at their wit's end before, but now that a God like Lin Yi had appeared, all their problems were solved. The two couldn't wait to order the ingredients to be prepared-the auction was in a few days, and time was of the essence.

Lin Yi stayed at the Chamber of Commerce to refine elixirs, but the West Mountain Almighty who had been following him was speechless. He followed Lin Yi from a distance all the way until he saw Lin Yi enter the Chamber of Commerce. He could only wait outside the door. After all, although the Hong Chamber of Commerce didn't check as carefully as the Inns, large Chambers of Commerce like this had many monitoring arrays set up, which might expose his identity as an evil cultivator.

The West Mountain man stayed there for a whole day, and Lin Yi didn't come out even when it got dark. What was going on? Could he have escaped through the back door?

However, he rejected the thought as soon as it appeared. It couldn't be. His spirit sense had been covering the area from morning to night and he didn't find Lin Yi's shadow at all. There was only one possibility, Lin Yi was still in the Hong Chamber of Commerce!

But now that the Chamber of Commerce was closed, Lin Yi still hadn't come out. The West Mountain man couldn't stand it anymore and went up to ask,"Are there any more guests inside?"

The waiter in charge of closing the shop glanced at him and shook his head.""I'm sorry, all the guests have left. If you need anything, please come early tomorrow. "

"Is that so?" The West Mountain's mighty figure peeked inside and saw that there was indeed no one there. He could only shake his head and leave, mumbling as he walked,""Why would I? That's impossible! Hiss ... But that brat really does have some strange means. Perhaps he really can escape from this old man's divine sense. Could he have returned to the inn?"

With that thought, the West Mountain man quickly ran back to the inn. Lin Yi made him suffer so much this time, he wasn't going to let this dog off so easily!

In the end, the West Mountain man squatted there for three whole days-with his poor beggar appearance, the amount of spiritual Jade he got was enough for him to make a fortune, but he didn't even see Lin Yi's shadow.

This time, the West Mountain's Almighty was completely discouraged. Who would be so angry after being a beggar for so many days? what's more, he was a black magic expert in the late stage of the mysterious Ascension realm. If his fellow disciples saw him like this, he would never be able to lift his head in his next life!

There was no other way. The West Mountain mighty figure could not take it anymore. He decided not to continue waiting and left first. He would come back to settle the score with this dog after he recovered from his injuries!

Five days passed in a flash, and Lin Yi stretched as he walked out of the room that honest Chai had prepared for him. Other than his usual cultivation, he'd been busy with making elixirs, only coming out this morning-the Morning Star Auction was starting.

"What?" Lin Yi heard the commotion before he went downstairs, as if someone was causing trouble. This was a branch of the Hong Chamber of Commerce, after all-who would dare to cause trouble here?
