Beauty and the Bodyguard

"So that's how it is. No wonder you wanted it to be your Guardian, no wonder you were so concerned about it." Lin Yi smiled, but shook his head."By the way, what's the point of talking to me about brain-eating insects? Since your divine sense's perception is so powerful, you should know what happened in the river of consciousness before, right? your special envoy was beaten into a pulp by me. "

Lin Yi and the brain-eating insect's conflict, other than the first time he was chased, the second time was when he was completely suppressed by Lin Yi. If they were talking about revenge, it was the brain-eating insect that came to Lin Yi for revenge, it was the victim.

"Badly beaten? Hehe, in terms of vitality, brain-eating insects are definitely among the best among all spirit beasts. Do you think it's so easy to kill them?" The nine neonate laughed.

The brain-eating insect, of course, wasn't dead-even Duanmu Yu knew this, and Lin Yi was no exception. A creature with such a powerful innate ability wouldn't die even if it was cut into a thousand pieces, unless its soul was completely destroyed.

"So what if I didn't kill him? Do you think I'm afraid of a defeated opponent?" Lin Yi didn't seem to mind at all-at his level, he didn't feel any pressure dealing with brain-eating bugs, and now that he'd beaten them up, he was even more confident.

"Hehe, if I remember correctly, you should have a group of underlings, right? aren't you afraid that the brain-eating insects will find trouble with them?" The nine neonate sneered and threatened. It seemed that it knew what was happening here like the back of its hand. Not to mention everything, at least what it wanted to know could not be hidden from its eyes and ears.

"Do you think I'm an idiot?" Lin Yi asked back.

"What do you mean?" The nine neonate was stunned.

"That thing was beaten to a pulp by me. It's already a miracle that it's still alive. Even if it's a brain-eating insect, it won't be able to recover in a short time. Who are you trying to scare?" Lin Yi scoffed.

With such a serious injury, if the brain-eating insect's recovery ability was so strong that it could be reborn in just a few days, it would be invincible. With its own talent of eating brain, it could grow into a heaven-defying existence. How could a nine neonate primordial spirit control it?

"Ugh ..." The nine neonate was speechless. It wanted to use this to make Lin Yi submit, but at least Lin Yi would be afraid of it. It didn't expect Lin Yi to not fall for it at all.

"I'll say the ugly words first. My patience is limited. It's fine if you discuss it with me properly, but if you continue to play such a childish trick on me, don't blame me for not serving you!" Lin Yi's face darkened as he gave his final warning. He had enough patience to deal with the other party, but he couldn't let them play tricks on him. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to get them out no matter how long they tried.

The nine neonate couldn't help but feel embarrassed after being exposed by Lin Yi. It had to give in,""If that's the case, why don't you just name a price yourself? what will it take for you to be my Guardian?"

"Hehe, someone like you, when I was still in my original body, would find it a burden to be my underling, and you want me to be your subordinate?" Lin Yi shook his head.

"Really?" The first one to be shocked was not the nine neonate, but Duanmu Yu, who was beside him.

She knew that Lin Yi came from Sky Class Island, and she could tell from all the amazing skills he used before that even though Lin Yi was at full foundation, his actual strength was no small matter. She thought that Lin Yi's actual body was at the peak of golden core-after all, any higher and he'd be at the nascent Soul Stage, a top figure in the entire ancient martial world.

But according to what Lin Yi said, his original body was stronger than a normal nascent soul old monster. One had to know that the nine-headed fierce beast in front of him was at least an existence comparable to a nascent soul old monster!

He was probably bluffing to scare the other party! Duanmu Yu reacted very quickly. Lin Yi was clearly saying this to run the nine neonate, so his credibility was most likely limited. Little did he know that Lin Yi was speaking the truth.

Even Duanmu Yu had this reaction, let alone the nine infants, who were standing on the opposite side. Upon hearing this, they immediately sneered."You think I'm a burden when I'm your little brother? Hahahaha, no wonder they say that humans are the most interesting race. You're so funny. You're a Living Treasure, you don't even blink when you talk big ..."

"If you don't believe me, then forget it." Lin Yi couldn't be bothered to explain-there wasn't much to explain anyway. It'd be a waste of his breath.

"Alright, alright, let's be more realistic, okay? I don't care how powerful your main body is, you're just a primordial spirit now. As the saying goes, people have to bow their heads under someone else's roof, don't you think so?" The nine neonate was very sincere.

"Alright," Lin Yi nodded. He wanted to compete in patience anyway, and this was exactly what he wanted."I don't know what abilities you have, so it's a bit blind for me to state my conditions. Why don't you tell me what you can state for me?"

"Alright, I can give you countless heavenly treasures. As long as you can see them here, you can choose whatever you want. What do you think?" The nine neonate said.

In the human cultivation world, there were four words that were important: wealth, companionship, law, and land. Among them, wealth was the most important. However, this wealth did not simply refer to things like spiritual Jade or money. It mainly referred to heavenly materials and earthly treasures, which were the most important things for all human cultivators. Almost everything that human cultivators did was inseparable from heavenly materials and earthly treasures from the beginning to the end. For this reason, there were many people who wanted to kill them at all costs.

At the end of the day, humans would die for wealth, and birds would die for food.

To the nine neonate, this was a weakness that all humans couldn't get around, and Lin Yi was no exception. After all, the ancient trial grounds was under its control, and most treasures were useless to it as an essence spirit. It didn't mind being generous this once.

Lin Yi's one sentence made it choke."Sure, then give me a thousand and eight hundred spirit sense grass and I'll agree to it."

"..." The nine neonate almost choked to death by him. It took a long time for it to catch its breath, and its head chattered loudly,"" 1800 spirit sense grass? Do you think this is some roadside grass? there aren't that many of them!"

"Then I'll take a step back. A hundred and eighty." Lin Yi said.

"Do you know what you're saying?" The nine neonate looked at it as if it was looking at an idiot.

"Not even 180? There should be at least eight or ten of them, such a large spirit Sense River, it can't be that there's only one Spirit sense grass, right?" Lin Yi asked suspiciously.
