Beauty and the Bodyguard

"What's wrong? Aren't you leaving?" Duanmu Yu quickly opened his mouth to divert the other party's attention.

"It's nothing. Let's go," The handsome man glanced at her and felt that he might be overthinking it. This was his base camp. Who would have the guts to stay here and play tricks?

Lin Yi looked at this scene and was scared. This guy was not easy to fool. He was already as careful as he could with his divine sense, but he was still almost discovered. Luckily, Duanmu Yu reacted fast enough, or he would've been caught.

After all, the tent wasn't big. Even if Lin Yi was in his spirit form, even if his strength was far above the enemy 's, if the enemy were to search carefully, the possibility of him completely hiding from the enemy's senses wasn't high.

The handsome man took the lead and walked through the hall. He strode toward the back of the large tent. Duanmu Yu was immediately stunned. There was no way out in front of him. It was a completely blocked tent. What was he doing?

Unexpectedly, the handsome man didn't stop walking until he reached the tent. He didn't open the tent either. He just passed through it as if he had disappeared into thin air.

"Come in." The handsome man's voice sounded out of thin air. Duanmu Yu slightly frowned. However, he still walked over in the same manner as the other party. As expected, he did not encounter any obstacles. His entire person directly passed through the tent.

"This is ..." Duanmu Yu was stunned. The scene before his eyes was exactly the same as before. Other than the change in direction, the spatial layout and the scenery were exactly the same as the big tent from before. There was almost no difference at all.

"Welcome to another world." The handsome man said with a smile.

"Another world? What do you mean by that?" Duanmu Yu was confused.

"Hehe, you'll understand when you go out and take a look." The handsome man smiled. As he spoke, he personally led Duanmu Yu forward. When they walked out of the large tent, Duanmu Yu was completely shocked by the scene before his eyes.

She was sure that she had not turned back, but she saw the exact same scene as before. It was like a big tent, there was no difference, just that the direction had been switched.

If there was anything else that was different, it would be that this place was completely empty. There were no traces of any spirit beasts.

"I don't understand ..." Duanmu Yu shook his head. If it were anyone else in her position, they would not be able to understand it at once. She was very sure that all of this was not an illusion, nor was it a scene that was carefully carved out by someone. Perhaps it was just as the handsome man had said earlier, this was another world, another twin world.

"It's okay, you'll understand slowly. " The handsome man didn't have the intention to continue explaining. Instead, he said impatiently,""There's only the two of us here. No one will disturb us. We can start our dual cultivation."

Duanmu Yu was a little hesitant, but he remembered what Lin Yi said just now. He gritted his teeth and forced himself to play along.

At the same time, Lin Yi, who was hiding in the dark, more or less saw something. This space gave off a mysterious feeling, and every layout was exactly the same as the outside world. The only difference was the direction was reversed, and there was only one explanation for this-a mirror.

If he was not wrong, this was a world that existed in the mirror!

This was the only logical deduction, but it still shocked Lin Yi. He hadn't found a mirror since he came in, nor did he find anything that looked like a mirror. If he used common sense, the mirror would be where the mirror was connected to the real world, which meant that the mirror could only be that ordinary-looking tent.

Could it be that the root of all this was that tent? could it be that the tent was a spatial divine tool similar to a jade pendant?

If he didn't get to the bottom of this, it'd have a huge impact on the operation-it might even cause it to fail. He couldn't just ignore it, and so he went back to check it out. The results proved that there was nothing wrong with the tent, it was just a normal tent.

If it wasn't the tent, then there were only two possible explanations. Either the godly item that created the mirror world was with the handsome man, or it was the handsome man's own power. If it was the former, then it wouldn't be a big deal. But if it was the latter, then this guy was really too strong!

At that moment, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a little regretful. This protector might be even more difficult than the brain-eating insect. It wasn't easy to kill this guy out of the blue.

Previously, he had told Duanmu Yu that as long as Duanmu Yu cooperated with him, he would have a 10% chance of success. However, from the looks of it now, he was perhaps a little too optimistic.

But luckily, other than the fact that the mirror world was very similar to the outside world, Lin Yi didn't find anything wrong with it. He didn't feel any discomfort, and there were no signs of his strength being restricted. Most importantly, he could enter and leave the tent freely, which meant that the mirror world wasn't showing any signs of danger.

This was a very important point-it was directly related to his and Duanmu Yu's life. Lin Yi didn't dare to be careless at all. He tested it a few times before he could finally relax. No matter what, he couldn't cut off the only exit to the real world.

However, just as Lin Yi was testing, the handsome man who had brought Duanmu Yu out of the tent suddenly turned back, a sneer on his face as expected."Come out. Since you've entered my illusion, don't even think about escaping my perception. There's no need to struggle in vain. No matter how much you struggle, it's just a waste of energy."

Duanmu Yu, who was behind him, was shocked. She didn't know where Lin Yi was hiding, but there was no doubt that this guy had found Lin Yi's tracks!

If he was discovered, Lin Yi would be dead for sure. No matter how high Duanmu Yu's evaluation of Lin Yi was, he was convinced that the difference in strength between them was too big.

Unfortunately, Lin Yi didn't show himself, and there was no movement around him.

"Hmph, you won't shed a tear until you see your coffin. There's no need to hope for luck. Actually, I already sensed it when I entered the tent just now. The explosive flame fruit was also your handiwork, am I right?" The handsome man continued to sneer.
