Beauty and the Bodyguard

10023 Chapter 10022-

“You’re really a short-sighted idiot. It’s already come to this, and you still can’t tell who’s stronger and who’s weaker?”

The skinny man sneered and then said with a stern face,””It wasn’t enough to mislead the young master once, and you want to mislead him a second time. Are you afraid that the young master won’t be killed by you?

Young master, time is of the essence. We can’t hesitate any longer!”

The lover boy looked embarrassed, but his eyes still fell on Li Yuan. He was not a decisive person, and he had always been kind to the diners around him.

However, since things had developed to this point, he could only choose to sacrifice his fellow Daoist.

“I’m sorry,”

As soon as lover boy finished his words, there was a fluctuation in the space in the distance, and then a figure appeared.

It was Lin Yi.

Everyone was stunned.

The Thin Man was filled with disbelief,”impossible! Dugu yixiong is such a powerful existence. How could he lose to such an unknown person?” That’s impossible, he must be hiding somewhere and hasn’t come out yet!”

However, dugu yixiong was still nowhere to be found even after a few seconds had passed.

Everyone’s expression had completely changed.

Li Yuan finally heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at the lost skinny man and said,”The consequences of angering dugu yixiong are indeed terrifying. However, wouldn’t the consequences be even more dire if someone’s remarks enrage a more powerful existence?”

The Thin Man was shocked and quickly looked at the lover boy.

“Since you’re the one who suggested it, I don’t think you have anything to say.”

The lover boy didn’t hesitate to hit the man’s abdomen with his palm. The Thin Man didn’t even have time to groan. The light in his eyes disappeared, and he fell to the ground, becoming a corpse that died with open eyes.

Zhang Heng and the others were not surprised at all.

This was the reality of the cultivation world. The order in the sea was far more chaotic than on land, so it was naturally crueler. Similar things happened all the time, so there was no need to make a fuss.

Moreover, this person’s words and actions just now could be considered to have died a worthy death.

The lover boy was a core member of the Diwu royal family. If he was not even this decisive, then they would have to consider whether they should continue to cling to him.

Li Yuan looked at the body on the ground with a lingering fear. If it wasn’t Lin Yi who came out, but dugu yixiong, then he would be the one lying on the ground.

Sensing the crowd’s reaction, Lin Yi glanced at them from afar, not planning on speaking.

Lover boy and the others didn’t dare to disturb him. They all put on a respectful posture and waited at a distance, not daring to move at all, afraid of causing Lin Yi to misunderstand.

“The fifth royal family …”

Combining the memories dugu yixiong provided, Lin Yi quickly went through the information of the forces in the sea.

Although the loss of the sea god’s divinity was still a top secret, there were no walls in the world that could keep the news out. This news would reach the various large organizations sooner or later, and with the beast God Hall’s arrival, the sea realm would definitely undergo an unprecedented reshuffling.

The plan to infiltrate the fifth royal family had to be brought forward.

However, the most important thing at the moment wasn’t this. It was the illusory whale that was blocking the way.

The illusory whale was still there, and the surrounding space was still sealed. Lin Yi could use the New World to escape at any time, but that would be the same as voluntarily withdrawing from the battle for the Sea King.

After all, he could only teleport to the other secret realms within Jianghai Academy through the New World. It would be difficult to return to the underwater ruins of the Empire.

The only way left was to break the spatial seal of the illusory whale.

However, even though his strength had increased tremendously, the chances of him succeeding in a head-on battle with an ancient existence like the illusory whale were still very slim.

He tried a few times, and as he expected, there was no reaction from the other side. The space didn’t show any signs of being broken.

Lin Yi had an unexpected discovery.”It doesn’t seem to be hostile to me?”

The illusory whale had appeared together with dugu yixiong, and it had helped him seal the entire space. According to normal logic, these two should be working together.

It was even possible that the illusory whale had already acknowledged dugu yixiong as its master.

However, it seemed that this was not the case.

If the illusory whale had already acknowledged its master, it would naturally be able to sense that its master had died. At that time, it would definitely do something. Whether it took revenge or left, it would at least have some reaction.

But there was nothing.

From the beginning to the end, the illusory whale just stood there quietly, like an ancient being in hibernation, but Lin Yi could clearly feel that it was observing him.

It was an extremely pure observation without any emotional fluctuations.

All of a sudden, a mysterious wave appeared in Lin Yi’s sea of consciousness. When he clearly felt the message that the wave was sending, Lin Yi’s face changed.

Lin Yi finally reacted after a while.”You want to enter my new world?”

It was another mysterious fluctuation, and the meaning this time was obvious.

Jiang xiaoshang could not help but laugh at this scene.”It seems that it is not in cahoots with dugu yixiong. At most, they are just business partners. It should be the reason why dugu yixiong came to our door this time.”

“The reason?” Lin Yi asked, confused.

Jiang xiaoshang explained,”no one knows how an ancient creature like the void whale came about. However, one thing is for sure. They have existed before the chaos was separated.”

I’ve seen a saying that they wander between reality and nothingness. If the real world is suitable for them to live in, they will enter reality. If it is not suitable for them to live in, they will return to nothingness and enter a state similar to infinite dormancy.

Only when an environment suitable for them to live in appears in reality will they recover and re-enter the real world. ”

“So, this chaotic new world of mine is their ideal environment?” Lin Yi asked.

“It looks like it.”

Jiang xiaoshang speculated,”I suspect that it’s not just looking for an ideal environment. The growth of the virtual whale is likely to be bound to the world’s origin. In other words, it’s likely to form a symbiotic relationship with your new world.”

Congratulations, you can rear whales now. ”

Lin Yi was speechless.

After thinking for a moment, he finally agreed to the virtual whale’s request and started the process of capturing it in the New World.

The illusory whale’s strength was unfathomable, but Lin Yi wasn’t worried that he wouldn’t be able to take it down in his new world.

Moreover, in the two short exchanges just now, although it couldn’t be expressed as accurately as a human conversation, it was obvious that the other party’s attitude was good or evil.

At least for now, it would not pose any threat to him.
