Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Is that so?" Leng Leng nodded, not entirely convinced. It wasn't that she was suspicious of Lin Yi, but she didn't think that she would believe him so easily. Were all men in the secular world that enlightened?

As the two of them were talking, they saw a man and a woman quarreling next to them. From the content of their quarrel, they were not only arguing about divorce but also about the division of property.

Lin Yi's face darkened-he'd just put a little bit of gold on this guy's face, and now this jerk was coming out to ruin it! He wasn't the type to lie, and it was obvious that even the heavens couldn't stand this!

Leng Leng's face darkened as expected-their relationship had reached a breaking point after a day of interaction, and they were only one step away from going further. Lengleng always kept people away from her, but when she looked at Lin Yi, there was an indescribable warmth in her eyes.

But now that he'd done this, the good impression he'd tried so hard to create crumbled instantly. The cold eyes weren't looking at him as if he didn't want strangers to get close, but it was impossible for him to take the opportunity to improve.

"Well, there are exceptions to everything. No matter how pure a place is, there will always be scum. Please don't misunderstand, I'm not the same kind of person as this scumbag." Lin Yi quickly added.

"Oh." Lengleng nodded, and Lin Yi couldn't help but feel nervous-did she believe him or not?

The two of them were silent for a moment before coldly saying,""Actually, you don't have to explain all this to me. I've already said it before, you and I are not the same kind of people. The two of us can never be together. Even if I really agree to your request, it's definitely not a good thing for you. It will only bring you a fatal disaster."

"It's that serious? Don't tell me you're a Runaway Bride from some big family?" Lin Yi said on purpose.

Leng Leng was speechless, but she still said,""You can think of it that way. We can't be together anyway. I'm not lying to you. My level is really different from what you think. It can kill me."

"Hehe, we've known each other for so long. Do you still think I'm an ordinary person?" Lin Yi said suddenly, his face profound.

"What?" Leng Leng was taken aback. Her first reaction was to suspect that Lin Yi was also a practitioner. Putting everything else aside, at least from the fact that he'd gotten two Supreme-grade spirit jades in a row, the possibility of Lin Yi being a practitioner was high.

But she quickly dismissed that thought because she couldn't feel any strength from Lin Yi at all. Even if Lin Yi was a practitioner, he was only a practitioner from the common world. He couldn't be so strong that even an early Foundation Stage practitioner like her couldn't sense it, right?

"Actually, I'm also very awesome. It's just that I'm in trouble now. Back then, I was also an existence that shook the pugilistic world. With a simple stomp of my foot, countless experts would tremble in their hearts." Lin Yi said, putting on the air of a master on purpose.

Lengleng was instantly amused by him, and the thought that had just appeared in her mind was instantly thrown to the back of her mind. This fellow was purely trying to make fun of her. How could he be a cultivator? she was really too nervous.

Lin Yi couldn't help but chuckle at her expression. His words didn't sound reliable at all, but there wasn't a single lie in them. It was the absolute truth, too bad the girl took it as a joke. What could he do?

"It's almost time, let's go eat. " Lin Yi suggested.

"Alright." Leng Leng nodded. Now that she had obtained a Supreme-grade spiritual Jade, she was already very satisfied with today's trip.

The two of them went to a nearby seafood restaurant. Business was booming, and they had to queue for 20 minutes before they could get a seat. However, when a table of seafood was served, the two of them suddenly felt that they had not waited in vain. The booming business was not fake. It was indeed super delicious!

Especially coold, who was amazed as she ate,""These dishes are really delicious. They're so fresh and tender. I've never had them before. Is this the seafood they're talking about?"

"Yeah, have you never eaten seafood before?" Lin Yi was even more surprised than her.

"No, I didn 't," Lengleng didn't even raise her head as she ate happily. When they weren't familiar with each other, she was a cold little girl, but now that they were familiar, she was more open.

Lin Yi couldn't help but be even more confused now. He looked at her eating seafood, amused. He wondered where this cold girl came from.

According to his previous speculations, she must have come from a place with denser spiritual Qi than the secular world but thinner than the sky Island. Whether it was the sky Island or the secular world, there was a sea. No matter how hidden the place was, it was impossible for a cultivator like her not to have seafood, unless there was no sea at all in that place, and it was a third independent plane that was completely isolated from the secular world and the sky Island!

This conclusion really surprised Lin Yi-there was actually a third plane in this world, and it even produced quite a number of Tiandao Masters.

Lin Yi was making all sorts of speculations in his heart. Although Leng Leng was eating happily, she thought that Lin Yi was paying attention to her table manners when he looked at her. She couldn't help but hide her blushing face and return to her usual cold self. The atmosphere between the two became a little weird.

Lin Yi only reacted now. He thought about it and suggested, "It's boring to eat like this. Why don't you tell me about your life? you've never told me about it before."

"Ah ..." Leng Leng was shocked and mumbled,""That ... There's nothing much to say about me. Let's talk about you first?"

Lin Yi knew that she would say that, so he didn't force her. He smiled."Okay, then I'll tell you about what happened to me back then."

"Alright," he said. Only then did Leng Leng let out a breath of relief. She wasn't good at making up lies, and it was fortunate that Lin Yi didn't get to the bottom of it, or she would've been exposed.

Lin Yi smiled and cleared his throat."Back then, I was also a martial arts master who was in the limelight. I traveled thousands of miles to an overseas Immortal Island to learn from a master. At that time, I thought that I was a very powerful top master and a top existence in the secular world. But after I went to that Immortal Island, can you guess what happened?"

"What's wrong?" Although Leng Leng thought that he was talking nonsense, he still managed to pique her interest.

"After I went to that Island, I realized that I was just a frog in the well. They said that I was invincible, and any random passerby there could kill me with a slap. I was just a new disciple at the bottom of the hierarchy there. In the end, I was arranged to go to one of the islands with some people ..." Lin Yi said. (To be continued.)
