Beauty and the Bodyguard

10660 Chapter 10649-

He was indeed like a maggot, but he was a maggot that struggled to survive.

No one knew his situation better than he did.

The more outstanding his performance was, the more determined Xi rulai was to get rid of him for his son, Xi chenyuan.

Although this test ride was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him, it also contained huge risks.

Just like now, even though he had been crushed by Yuan kun and was already disheartened and didn’t want to get involved in this mess, he had no other choice.

Xi rulai held the right to speak in the clan. He had no right to say no to the clan’s righteousness.

To put it bluntly, he had been pushed out by Xi rulai to use hard lightning.

If he could pull Lin Yi down, that would be for the best, but if he couldn’t, he’d just turn him into cannon fodder, and that would be a big problem for Xi rulai.

No matter how he looked at it, Xi rulai did not lose out.

The more flustered and exasperated Xi rulai was, the more he wanted him dead!

BOOM!

A pressure that was far greater than the previous one came over, and West extreme happiness’s bone armor was once again baptized. This time, he could not move at all, even squirming had become an extravagant hope.

Before he lost consciousness, he forced himself to look in Lin Yi’s direction, his eyes filled with unwillingness.

“Carry him down.”

As they watched West paradise being carried out of the door, the scene fell into a strange silence again.

“Trash! Pure trash!”

Xi rulai sat back down with a face full of anger. At least from his expression, he was extremely disappointed with West paradise’s performance.

Immediately, everyone’s eyes spontaneously focused on nie tianlu.

Nie tianlu immediately shivered.

Unlike the Western paradise, he still held some hope for this opportunity even though his situation in the nie family wasn’t much different from the Western paradise. But what if he succeeded?

But now, after seeing the tragic state of West paradise, this bit of luck had completely disappeared.

In his mind, there was only the word “self-protection.”

Under everyone’s gaze, nie tianlu braced himself and looked at his clan’s Big Shot, nie liangchen, who was standing high above them. His voice trembled as he said, “”I give up.”

Everyone was stunned.

Lin Yi couldn’t help but take another look at him-giving up at this time was a lot of pressure, but he had to admit that it was a wise choice.

Lin Yi had already noticed something was wrong the moment he stepped onto the stairs.

The pressure had changed.

To be precise, the difficulty had increased.

He’d finished his test and sat on the tenth chair for the time it took for an incense stick to burn. He didn’t make it recognize him as its master, but it was clear that the seat had acknowledged Lin Yi to a certain extent.

One of the most obvious signs was that it was even harsher on the people behind it.

West paradise was the first unlucky one.

If nie tianlu didn’t give up, his outcome wouldn’t be any better. After all, his strength wasn’t any stronger than West paradise.

Nie liangchen looked down at him and didn’t speak.

Nie tianlu heaved a sigh of relief. He quickly bowed and left.

The meeting hall regained its calm.

After a moment of silence, Gu jiumu stood out and announced, “”If that’s the case, then there should be no more objections to Lin Yi’s right to enter the test. Now, for the next segment, please leave.”

The losers all looked at Lin Yi with envy.

No matter how jealous they were, no matter how unwilling they were, they didn’t dare to disobey and could only leave obediently.

Soon, there were only nine big shots left, and Lin Yi.

“Passing the test can only confirm that you have the potential to become a big Shot, but whether or not you can fulfill that potential depends on whether you can pass the test.”

As he spoke, the information about the test entered Lin Yi’s mind.

One word came to Lin Yi’s mind after reading the whole thing-Pledge of Allegiance.

This so-called ” test for the big shots ” was more like doing dirty work for the Supreme Board of Directors than a test. As long as the dirty work was stained with blood, everyone would be on the same side from now on.

At the end of the day, the Supreme Board of Directors was a collective of pure interests.

Any one of the nine powerhouses, including the huge power Group behind them, had some dark history behind them to be able to get to where they were today.

The only difference was whether the food looked good or bad.

As for the specific content of the trial, it would be one of the five missions decided by the Supreme Board of Directors. The heaven secret bottle would draw lots and randomly choose one.

Gu jiumu waited for a while, making sure that Lin Yi had fully digested the information before speaking, if there are no other questions, then let’s get ready.

“Can I give up?” Lin Yi suddenly raised his hand.

“..”

All the big shots were surprised. Then, those who were on the opposing side like Xi rulai could not help but feel secretly happy. Even Kong shenglin’s eyes flashed with a trace of joy.

Lin Yi’s success was a fact, and no matter how much authority they had, they couldn’t deny it.

And if Lin Yi went one step further and completed the test, then he’d be at the 10th place-it’d be a done deal! No one could stop him!

At that time, the entire power structure of the Supreme board would be greatly affected. Lin Yi’s addition might even completely reverse the power structure.

Lin Yi’s decision to give up at this time was a pleasant surprise to them.

According to common sense, Gu jiumu would have to stop him. However, Gu jiumu only nodded his head and said, “”Sure.”

Yet, under the anticipating gaze of a Big Shot, Lin Yi said, “”Oh, I’m not forfeiting. I’m just asking.”

All the big shots suddenly had the urge to kill.

What’s the point of being cheeky in such a serious occasion like the Supreme Board of Directors?

But from Lin Yi’s playful expression, it did seem interesting.

After all, it wasn’t easy to tease this group of high and mighty big shots.

Chu hantian laughed at this scene, “”What an interesting kid!”

Even the usually calm Gu jiumu couldn’t help but take another look at the expressions of Kong shenglin and the others. This was a rare sight indeed.

Kong shenglin looked at Lin Yi deeply and said coldly, “”Since you’re not going to give up, let’s not waste everyone’s time. Let’s start.”

With that, the bottle started working again, and a Jade slip flew out, landing in Lin Yi’s hand.

Two words were carved on its surface.

The spirit race.

The group of big shots suddenly revealed a playful expression.
