Beauty and the Bodyguard

10619 Chapter 10608-

In the end, it was still Jiang Zhi who stood up and said, we just want freedom, nothing more. A Big Shot like you wouldn’t make things difficult for us, would you? ”

Hmph! su Zhang refuted coldly, ” I wonder who was the one who wanted to grab a bunch of Saint bones before leaving.

Jiang Zhi was speechless, and the situation was extremely awkward.

Lin Yi raised an eyebrow. freedom is a good thing, but you guys didn’t fight for it. It’s not appropriate to just leave like this, right? ”

Jiang Zhi and the others looked at each other. At least in this matter, they were indeed in the wrong.

Without Lin Yi and Xiang Yusheng, they would still be slaves to the skeleton. They had no right to stand here and talk about freedom.

“Then what do you want us to do?” Jiang Zhi raised his head and asked.

“Stay here.”

Lin Yi’s answer was clear.

In fact, he didn’t think much of these human cultivators who weren’t on his side. Even if they looked good on the surface, since they couldn’t be on his side, they wouldn’t be sweet in the end.

The reason why he wanted these people to stay was, on one hand, to make use of the waste. After all, the account lineup of these people could not be underestimated. If he really let them go for no reason, it would be a loss, no matter how big or small.

On the other hand, it was out of consideration for the safety of hundred sacred city.

Now that one of the four great deathlands, the burial ground, had suddenly appeared, it was without a doubt that it had attracted the attention of the entire divine Kingdom.

In the following period of time, there would definitely be batch after batch of cultivators who would try to sneak in and take advantage of the situation.

If they allowed Jiang Zhi and the rest to leave at this time, they would definitely leak a large amount of information to the outside world given their familiarity with the city. They might even become someone else’s Guide and lead their men into the city again!

He had to guard against this hidden danger.

Therefore, even if it was only for the safety of hundredth Saint city, these people could not be easily released.

Jiang Zhi and the rest’s faces turned ugly, “”Are we going to stay here and continue to be cannon fodder slaves?”

“I don’t think I said anything about slaves,” Lin Yi frowned.

“You didn’t say it, but you’ve never looked us in the eye, have you?”

Jiang Zhi was so angry that he laughed. since you don’t trust us from the bottom of your heart, why force us to stay here? isn’t it better for us to each take a step back? ”

“I can trust you guys?” Lin Yi looked at him.

“..”

Jiang Zhi choked again.

Thinking back to what they’d done before, they didn’t have the confidence to make Lin Yi trust them anymore. After all, they were the ones who betrayed him first.

Logically speaking, if Lin Yi was a brutal upper-class person, he would’ve killed all of them for their betrayal.

The fact that they were still alive was already Lin Yi showing them mercy.

In fact, it was because of this guilt that Jiang Zhi and the others felt that Lin Yi wouldn’t let them off so easily. After the situation stabilized, there would be another round of brutal accounting.

It was also because of this that they were trying to escape from this place.

Only by staying away from Lin Yi could they feel at ease. Otherwise, they would feel like there was a knife above their heads, ready to fall at any moment.

Lin Yi thought for a moment, ” at least for now, I can’t fully trust you guys. But that doesn’t mean you don’t have a chance to stand out. I’ll make it clear today. If any of you have the strength and can pass my test, I’ll give him a cadre position immediately and treat him as my trusted subordinate!

“Officers?”

Jiang Zhi and the others were stunned. Lin Yi added,”The treatment is the same as su Zhang and Xiang Yusheng.”

Jiang Zhi and the others “eyes lit up.

The guilt was one of the reasons they wanted to escape, but the main reason was that they didn’t want to be Lin Yi’s cannon fodder.

However, if he could get a position equal to su Zhang and Xiang Yusheng, that was another matter.

They had been trapped in hundredth Saint city for a long time and had long been cut off from the outside world. Even if they had some background and status, after coming out this time, it could be foreseen that even if they could return to their original families and schools, things would definitely change.

After being slaves in the hundred sacred city for so many years, they were no less aware of the cruelty of reality than anyone.

And with their own strength, even if they formed a group, it would be difficult for them to form a faction.

After all, even if Jiang Zhi was influential among them, he was limited by his own strength. Even if he could gather all of them together, the ceiling that they could reach would be very limited.

As for running out and becoming a wandering cultivator, that was even more undesirable.

Wandering cultivators seemed to have a lot of freedom. They could do whatever they wanted, and there were almost no restrictions on their bodies. However, at the same time, it also meant that they could not obtain any precious resources.

To cultivators, especially Supreme realm cultivators, once they did not have a large supply of resources, it was equivalent to announcing that they had reached their limit.

In the future, even maintaining his current realm would become a luxury, let alone advancing further.

Just the thought of that scene made them shudder.

Therefore, no matter what, they had to find a new backer this time.

It was better to lean against a big tree. Only by holding onto a strong thigh could they have a future.

Putting everything aside, the Lin Yi in front of him was, without a doubt, a ready-made, thick leg!

After all, they’d all seen Lin Yi’s strength with their own eyes, even experiencing it for themselves. Other than the big shots of the Alliance of godly schools, it was hard to say who else in the entire divine Kingdom on land could be above Lin Yi.

The point was that Lin Yi didn’t seem to have a huge Corporation backing him up-it was more like a start-up company, and there were plenty of opportunities by his side.

They were not like those big bosses, whose seats had already been occupied by people, and it was impossible for them to squeeze in with their Foundation.

If Lin Yi really meant what he said and gave them the chance to become officers, then with Lin Yi’s current momentum, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that he had a bright future!

“Is that true?” Jiang Zhi could not help but ask.

He respected Lin Yi himself, and the reason why he brought his men away was because he didn’t have the chance.

If he could get enough attention from Lin Yi, from the bottom of his heart, he would be more inclined to stay.

Lin Yi nodded faintly, ” my test is very simple. If you can get within three steps of me, I’ll acknowledge your strength and potential. If you can’t even do this, then you should just focus on your own training. Don’t aim too high.
