Beauty and the Bodyguard

10178 Chapter 10177-

If it weren’t for Madam Qing, his overall plan for the sea would never have progressed as quickly as it did now. It was very likely that he would still be trapped by an empty title of coastal Sea King, and would still be fighting internally within the Poseidon shrine.

Madam Qing smiled.”I wish you all the best. I’ll be waiting for your good news.”

After some small talk, Lin Yi left for the sword Pavilion without any intention of staying in the sea god’s Palace.

The high priest’s eyes darkened as he watched Lin Yi’s back disappear into the distance. His eyes were filled with killing intent.

However, his attention immediately shifted to the tragic scene of the trampling. Immediately, with a look of pity for the state of the universe and the people, he came to the bodies of those who had died tragically and prayed for their souls.

This was the duty of a priest, and the people around him did not notice the slightest difference. At most, they were a little surprised that he, as the high priest, was so eager to do things.

However, what they didn’t know was that while they were praying, an invisible giant hand had firmly grabbed the strong resentment emitted by these corpses.

” 5687. I’m still short of 4312.”

The high priest silently calculated the resentment in the invisible giant palm, and his eyes revealed a trace of eagerness.””Soon, soon.”

Everyone thought that this silent march was just to deal with Lin Yi. After all, it was all very logical.

But even Lin Yi himself didn’t know that he was just a secondary target.

To the high priest, it’d be great if he could use this chance to kill Lin Yi, but if he couldn ‘t, it wouldn’t matter. Compared to his real plan, Lin Yi was insignificant.

His real purpose was to collect the resentful souls of the cultivators who had died in vain.

Although there were many changes in the silent march, especially after the appearance of the sword Saint, it was almost completely out of his control. But at least, his goal had been achieved.

Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety nine.

Now that they were less than half way to their final goal, the high priest was planning the next silent march.

Unfortunately, Lin Yi was a natural target that they’d already used once. If they used him again, they’d be alerted, and it wouldn’t be effective anymore.

“Who will be next?”

The high priest’s deep eyes fell on the drowsy-eyed cruel malevolence.

Cruel malevolence seemed to have sensed it, but when he turned around, the high priest had once again begun to pray for the dead. Nothing seemed to be wrong from head to toe.

In the sword Pavilion of the South Sea.

Although it was nominally under the jurisdiction of the royal family of the South Sea, everyone knew that even the powerful royal family of the South Sea couldn’t extend their hands within a hundred miles of the sword Pavilion.

There was no other reason. Just the two words “Sword Saint” alone had such a deterrent power.

At this moment, the news of the complete collapse of the silent march had not yet arrived, but the sword Garret had already entered a state of first-degree alert.

Everyone was jittery. No matter who was within a hundred miles of the sword Garret, they would be watched by the sword guards at once. They would not let the other party enter the country until they were sure that the other party was harmless.

As long as there was the slightest bit of mistake, they would immediately kill you. As for whether you were wronged or not, no one would ask.

This was the way the sword Guardian did things.

However, it was also because of this that the security of the sword pavilion area was the best in the entire sea area.

The sword guard was fierce to the outside world and even unreasonable most of the time, but to the local people, he had never offended them. On the contrary, he even took care of them.

Therefore, the sword Pavilion was highly popular in this area, and every family was proud to have their own children enter the sword Pavilion.

Even if one walked out of this place, very few people would say that they were from the South Sea, and would call themselves the sword Pavilion’s territory.

“Look! The sword Guardian!”

A group of swordsmen passed by on patrol and immediately attracted a group of children to chase after them. Even if someone deliberately pretended to be fierce to scare them, they were not afraid at all. Some bold ones even pulled the leader of the group and asked for snacks.

The person in the lead was a young man dressed in snow-white clothes. He was the eldest senior brother of the sword Pavilion, Xu Taiyi.

Although the sword Garret strictly forbade the villagers from being harmed, the swordsmen were all temperamental Masters. Normally, even if they knew that the villagers would not harm them, the children would never dare to be so arrogant.

But Xu Taiyi was different.

Everyone knew that there were many fierce disciples in the sword Garret, but they had a gentle eldest brother. No one had ever seen him lose his temper in so many years.

Just like now, Xu Taiyi was not angry at the children who were pulling on his sleeves. Instead, he took out a pile of snacks and gave them to them with a smile. Each of the snacks was just right for the children’s taste. It was clear that he had prepared them very carefully.

The children then ran away with smiles on their faces.

The sword guard beside him said helplessly,””Eldest senior brother, you’re spoiling them too much. This bunch of monkeys have gone crazy. In the future, if they meet someone with an evil heart, they’ll suffer a big loss sooner or later.”

Xu Taiyi shook his head and chuckled.”No, they won ‘T. Do you think they’re stupid? they’re all smarter than you and I. Even if you and I don’t have eyes, they won’t suffer such a loss.”

“Uh … That’s true.”

His companion carefully recalled the performance of this group of children in the past. They really didn’t suffer any losses. In terms of the ability to judge people’s skills, this group of little bastards really didn’t lose to anyone.

“How’s junior Sister Wei doing?”Xu Taiyi asked. She’s new here, so there must be a lot of things she’s not used to. You have to take care of her when you have the opportunity. It’s not easy for a girl to be alone outside. ”

All the sword guardians nodded in unison. After looking at each other, they couldn’t help but say,””I heard that master intends to let her take over and become the next Sword Saint?”

Before this, although countless people had coveted the position of Sword Saint, anyone with a discerning eye knew that as long as there were no major accidents, the position would belong to Xu Taiyi.

This was not only because of his status as the eldest senior brother, but more importantly, his strength.

The sword Pavilion was a place where strength spoke for itself. In the face of strength, one’s status and experience were of little use.

As long as one had enough strength, even the latest beginner sword Guardian could stand out and become one of the most popular eight pillars of the sword Pavilion.

Before Lin Yi’s sudden appearance, no one in the new generation of Masters in the sea could compare with him. No matter how unwilling they were, they had to admit that Xu Taiyi was the person closest to becoming the next Sword Saint.

However, who would have thought that a girl surnamed Wei would suddenly appear out of thin air? moreover, their master, the sword Saint, had spent far more effort on this person than they did.

The meaning behind this was obvious when the sword Saint was about to die.

Given Xu Taiyi’s popularity, the group before him was not the only one who had called for him to suffer. At least half of the entire sword Pavilion had the same thought.
