Beauty and the Bodyguard

Although Xue Jianfeng was also the leader of the young generation in the small Jianghu in the ancient times, many of his points came from the various promotion of his father, the Vice sect leader of the snow sword sect. If it was just based on Xue Jianfeng's own talent, he was at most slightly outstanding. He could not be compared with a real genius like Ling Tianyou at all. Even Leng Leng could leave him far behind.

As the top youth of the previous generation, Bing Wuqing was an absolute genius herself. Naturally, she wouldn't think highly of a second-rate top youth like Xue Jianfeng. However, she didn't expect this guy to actually have some skills.

The traceless snow step was one of the best movement techniques in the snow sword sect. The number of people who could master this movement technique in the entire snow sword sect could be counted with one's fingers. It was not easy.

Xue Jianfeng was running in the direction of Bing Wuqing. Now that the primordial monitor lizard was on a rampage, its speed could not be measured with common sense. Even if he had traceless Snowsteps, he might not be able to shake it off. He might as well do what Bing Wuqing had done earlier and direct the trouble to the lizard.

When two people were being chased by a Tiger, it was not necessary to outrun the Tiger to escape. It was common sense that one could outrun the other person.

The two of them were both perfected gold core experts, and both of them were from the snow sword sect. In this aspect, it was obvious that Xue Jianfeng had the advantage of having traceless Snowsteps to protect him, unless Bing Wuqing also knew how to traceless Snowsteps.

It was a pity that Bing Wuqing didn't put in any effort in this aspect. After all, even with his talent, it wasn't an easy task to master the traceless snow. Moreover, this movement martial technique didn't have a high compatibility with him. To put it simply, it didn't suit his temperament. If he tried to practice it forcefully, he would only get half the result with twice the effort. A rational and realistic person like Bing Wuqing would definitely not do such a thing.

However, Bing Wuqing was feeling a little regretful now. If she had known this would happen, she would have spent twice the amount of time practicing. At least, she wouldn't have fallen into such an awkward situation. In just a short while, she had been left behind by the traceless snow sword, while the brainless ancient monitor lizard had automatically shifted its hatred to him, who was the closest.

"Hehe, I'll go first, you have fun with it!" Xue Jianfeng laughed complacently and left. It wasn't that he didn't want to stay and watch Bing Wuqing's embarrassed look, but he was well aware of how terrifying Bing Wuqing was. He knew very well that if he stayed, Bing Wuqing would definitely have a hundred ways to drag him back into the battle. So, it was better to leave first to be safe.

"Hmph! Do you think you can escape?" Bing Wuqing could only bite the bullet and attack the ancient monitor lizard. At the same time, she glanced in the direction that Xue Jianfeng had left in, her eyes flashing with an inexplicable meaning. If there was someone with extremely sharp divine sense like Lin Yi present, they would notice that there was a faint ice thread at the tip of his finger, which was connected to the direction that Xue Jianfeng had left in.

At the same time, Lin Yi and the others were rushing towards Leng Leng's group. However, the water lotus clone that was in charge of guiding Lin Yi suddenly stopped.

"Why did you stop?" Lin Yi frowned. He was in a hurry to meet up with Leng Leng and the others, he didn't have time to waste on this guy.

"The group of people you're looking for has split up." Said the water lotus clone.

"Did you encounter the spirit beast you were talking about?" Lin Yi quickly asked.

"Yes, a woman stayed behind to delay them. The rest of the people have safely evacuated." The water lotus clone nodded and added,""However, their problem is not the spiritual beast that I just mentioned, but another human expert. His strength doesn't seem simple."

"A human expert?" Lin Yi's eyelids twitched. With protector Lotus's knowledge, if she praised someone with extraordinary strength, then that person must be a golden core stage master. And this time, the only golden core stage Masters who came in were Bing Wuqing and Xue Jianfeng. Since Bing Wuqing was on their side, then the person who made things difficult for Leng Leng and the others could only be Xue Jianfeng.

"Oh my, that expert is chasing that woman to the territory of the ancient monitor lizard. I can't do anything about that." The water lotus avatar spread its hands helplessly.

"What do you mean? Why are you powerless in the territory of the ancient monitor lizard?" Lin Yi looked at it-this guy's body was trapped in the Jade space, and taking its life was just a thought away. He wasn't afraid of any tricks.

"Do you know how I found out about these things?" The water lotus avatar asked instead of answering.

"Don't we rely on those flowers, plants, and trees?" Lin Yi frowned.

"That's right. I can only know these things by communicating with them using my primordial spirit. Basically, as long as there are plants, I can grasp every movement, big and small. However, the territory of the ancient monitor lizard is not within my control." The water lotus clone shook his head.

"Why?" Duanmu Yu asked on his behalf.

"That's because there will be saliva left behind wherever the ancient monitor lizard passes by. Just a little bit of it can kill the intelligence of all plants. Such plants are useless even if they are alive because without intelligence, they can't communicate. Naturally, they will be out of my control." The water lotus avatar looked quite sincere when it said this, and there was no sign of lying.

"Plants also have intelligence?" Health-maintenance Fei came up and asked curiously.

"Of course there is. Any plant with a little bit of climate will have spiritual intelligence. As for the spirit herbs in your eyes, they are the best among them. Otherwise, how could they gather so much spiritual energy from heaven and earth to nourish them for no reason?" The water lotus avatar asked.

"Uh ..." When he heard the word "spirit herbs," Fei Yangsheng's face suddenly darkened. The two bags of spirit herbs he had painstakingly collected in the underground had been thrown away when he met the Kappa. Now that he had come out of the treasure Mountain, he was empty-handed, which really made his heart ache.

The main thing was that Lin Yi was worried about the safety of Leng Leng and the others. He didn't want to go back with her, and he didn't dare to go back alone. He could only silently feel his heart bleeding.

"What are you going to do?" Duanmu Yu looked at Lin Yi.

Lin Yi pondered for a moment. He was sure that it was Leng Leng who was holding Xue Jianfeng back. He thought for a while and said,"Other than that woman, are the others in any danger?"

"No, it seems that if nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to reach the river of consciousness." The water lotus clone smiled mysteriously.

"In that case, bring me to the territory of the ancient monitor lizard now." Lin Yi decided immediately. Since Lingshan and the others weren't in danger, there was nothing to worry about. The most important thing now was to save Leng Leng.

"Hey, hey, hey, do you even know what kind of existence the ancient giant lizard is? Its territory is a forbidden area for most spirit beasts. Even that brain-eating insect won't casually enter. Are you sure you want to go?" The water lotus clone said in shock.
