Beauty and the Bodyguard

BOOM! It was another incomplete corpse.

"It ... It died again?" Duanmu Yu's eyes couldn't help but stare at the familiar scene. She was knocked down by Lin Yi twice in a row. Wasn't this water lotus Protector a little too cowardly?

"It's not that easy. This is probably just one of its little toys. This guy is deliberately playing hide-and-seek with us." Lin Yi shook his head.

"What's next?" Duanmu Yu asked. He had now understood the situation. However, he was still at a loss as to how to get out. He was unable to think of any countermeasures for the time being. On the contrary, it made him feel even more depressed and helpless.

"If we want to crack these two mirrors, we can't find the real world if we look for them one by one. We'll only sink deeper and deeper." Lin Yi said as he pinched his chin, deep in thought.

"But we can't just sit and wait for death, can we?" Duanmu Yu said with a frown.

"There's only one way. If I use brute force to break these two mirrors, these Mirror Worlds will collapse on their own." Lin Yi's eyes brightened. This was the simplest and crudest way to go about it-once the mirror was broken, there would be no more mirror world.

"Using brute force? Is that even possible?" Duanmu Yu was full of suspicion. To break through the illusion with brute force, even with his toes, he could tell that the power needed was far above the water lotus Protector 's, but the opponent was at least at the peak of the Golden core stage. To do this, Lin Yi had to be at the nascent Soul Stage!

Unfortunately, not only was Lin Yi not a nascent soul old monster, he wasn't even a golden core Master-he was only a Foundation peak.

"Impossible." Lin Yi's answer was quite discouraging.

"Doesn't that mean we're completely out of ideas?" Duanmu Yu said as he looked at him.

"Not necessarily," Lin Yi pondered for a moment,"Although the theory behind this flower mirror Water Moon is like what I said earlier, it's not really two mirrors."

"What do you mean?" Duanmu Yu was confused.

"If we trace the source of the mirror world, we will find out that it created these Mirror Worlds with its own power. I am certain that its true form is hidden in these Mirror Worlds." Lin Yi speculated.

"You want to find its original body?" Duanmu Yu came to a sudden understanding upon hearing this.

"I'm afraid this is the only way out. It's not realistic for us to return to the real world, so we can only find its body." Lin Yi decided.

"But ... How?" he asked. Duanmu Yu asked. She knew that they would only have a slim chance if they found the real body of the water lotus Protector. However, how were they going to find so many Mirror Worlds?

"I'm just trying my luck. " Lin Yi said with a meaningful smile.

"Ha? Try your luck?" Duanmu Yu looked at him with an indescribable expression. If he could find the water lotus Protector's true body by relying on pure luck, then he might as well try his luck and go out directly. Was this even possible?

"Follow me closely." Lin Yi didn't explain further and led the way through the tent. Duanmu Yu didn't know why, but he knew that Lin Yi had his reasons for doing so and followed him.

But this time, before she could get through the tent, Lin Yi pulled his leg back and pulled her back.

"Why?" Duanmu Yu jumped, thinking that protector water lotus had taken the chance to attack her. He only relaxed when he saw that it was Lin Yi,"What are they doing?"

"See for yourself." Lin Yi said, pointing behind him.

Duanmu Yu took a glance after hearing what he said. He could not help but say in astonishment, "Where's the corpse?"

This was different from before-they'd crossed into another mirror world before coming back, and what they saw was a whole new mirror world. This one, however, clearly had remnants of Lin Yi's Qi refinement fire bomb, and the two of them hadn't left completely yet-it was enough to prove that this was the original mirror world.

However, the mirror world was still the same mirror world. The broken body of the water lotus Protector had disappeared.

"Looks like we're quite lucky." Lin Yi nodded.

"What do you mean by good luck? What's with this corpse?" Duanmu Yu asked with a frown. She knew that her intelligence was not bad. However, she was truly unable to keep up with the rhythm of today's situation. From time to time, she would be confused.

"If I'm not wrong, that corpse should have been kept by its main body. Otherwise, it would be an unforgivable waste of energy if it were to abandon it." Lin Yi's lips curled up.

"It was taken back by its main body?" Hearing this, Duanmu Yu pondered for a moment and couldn't help but agree. "That's right. Besides us, there's only the water lotus Protector in this place. The only one who would do something to the corpse is it."

"If it didn't give me the hint, I wouldn't have realized this. The Lotus root is broken but the thread is still connected." Lin Yi laughed. The guy really shot himself in the foot this time. He wouldn't have thought in this direction if it weren't for the fact that he'd shown Lin Yi how capable he was.

"But even so, I'm afraid that it won't be of any substantial help to us. How can you say that we're lucky?" Duanmu Yu was still a little surprised.

"Oh, because I just did something to its body. If it doesn't bring the body back, it'll be very difficult for us to find its original body. As for now ..." Lin Yi didn't continue and only laughed.

Duanmu Yu was delighted and didn't ask what was going on. It wasn't that she didn't want to know, but Lin Yi had his reasons for not telling her. What if protector water lotus heard him?

Even though the doppelganger in the mirror world had been destroyed, who knew if it had any other means of monitoring him? at the end of the day, the mirror world was the enemy's territory, and it was best to be careful with every move, word, and action.

"Follow me closely. No matter where I go, you can't hesitate. Otherwise, we'll be separated into two Mirror Worlds. It'll be troublesome." Lin Yi said seriously. If the two were to separate here, it'd be even harder to find each other than the water lily itself. It'd even be harder than finding the real world. The chances of them reuniting here were close to zero.

"I know." Duanmu Yu heavily nodded.

"Alright, I'll start now." With that, Lin Yi walked through the tent with Duanmu Yu following closely behind. However, as soon as Duanmu Yu stepped out of the mirror world, he realized that Lin Yi had retreated. He quickly returned to the mirror world behind him.

This time, it was obviously not the original mirror world. The remains of the true Qi pill fire bombs were gone. They were clean and spotless. This was a whole new mirror world.
