Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 2481: Fighting for the blue crystal (2)

Translator: 549690339

As everyone knew, only sky Class Masters could channel Qi into weapons of the corresponding element to reach the maximum power, but Earth Class Masters couldn ‘t, so it was better not to use it in battle-it was a burden, not as practical as a martial skill!

However, there were exceptions. For example, when this weapon was refined, a large amount of blue crystal was added. After the refinement, the earth Class could inject Qi into it, but the amount of Qi depended on the amount of blue crystal added!

Qiqi only had this small piece of blue crystal-it really wasn’t enough for anything, but it was still worth a city-it was something an Earth Class practitioner couldn’t even dream of! Normally, it was a very difficult process for an Earth Class to advance to Sky class, so the earth Class kept collecting weapons-they might be able to enjoy the power of a god weapon before advancing.

Blue crystal? Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat! Lin Yi wasn’t expecting Qiqi to have something as good as this-he changed his mind about not getting involved! He didn’t really care if Qiqi lost anything, but he was determined to get the blue crystal.

“So you don’t want the small Qi gathering pill?” The skinny old man took the small Qi gathering pill and put it back into his pocket! It wasn’t until this moment that everyone realized that this skinny old man didn’t even want to pay for the small Qi gathering pill. He was going to Rob them!

However, even if it was an open robbery, he wouldn’t say much. After all, it wasn’t his own thing, so it didn’t matter if it was robbed.

“You … I …” Qiqi’s tears were rolling in her eyes-she wasn’t a spiritual practitioner, and a Qi gathering pill wouldn’t help her break through to Earth Class. It was a big loss to trade the blue crystal for a Qi gathering pill, but not taking it was even worse! And so, Qiqi nodded gloomily.”I want it!”

“Want? It’s too late!” The skinny old man chuckled and said,”I didn’t want it just now, but I’m not giving it now!”

“Give it to her!” Lin Yi couldn’t stand it anymore. He knew how to bully people, but he would never bully people he had a grudge against. This skinny man in front of him was the perfect example of “bullying”!

“Who … Who are you?” The skinny old man didn’t expect that someone would come and meddle in his business. This wasn’t the first time he had done this kind of thing, but this was the first time someone had stood up for him! But he wasn’t afraid. He revealed his strength as an early phase Earth Class and smiled coldly at Lin Yi,”Are you sure you want to stand up for her?”

In his eyes, Lin Yi was just a hot-headed kid. As long as he showed his strength, Lin Yi would get lost! But what she didn’t expect was that Lin Yi wasn’t affected at all-he took out the Qi gathering pill box from his skinny pocket and threw it to Qiqi,”Take it. Don’t make an exchange with this kind of person next time.”

“Oh …” Qiqi wasn’t happy-why didn’t Lin Yi take her blue crystal back? Instead, he gave her the small Qi gathering pill? What was this guy doing, not helping her to the end …… But Lin Yi did help her, after all, and Qiqi had to accept it no matter how unwilling she was.”Thank you …”

The skinny man frowned when he saw that his pressure wasn’t working, but he gave up on asking Qiqi for the pill after some hesitation. He turned to Lin Yi,”Alright, you’re done with your business, I’m leaving!”

“Whose father are you?” Lin Yi frowned and hmphed coldly.

“I … Hmph, kid, I’m warning you, don’t meddle in other people’s business. I’m not alone!” The old man guessed that Lin Yi was also an Earth Class-after all, the pressure he released didn’t affect Lin Yi at all. But he wasn’t afraid-he was three brothers, and all three of them were earth Class, with deep backgrounds. This was why he wasn’t afraid,”Be careful, you won’t be able to enter the market!”

“According to your theory, whoever has the tougher fist is the boss, right?” Lin Yi laughed instead of getting angry at the man.

“Hmph, it’s good that you know!” The old man didn’t hear the mockery in Lin Yi’s tone and nodded as if it was only natural.

The others might not know, but the skinny old man knew his place. The three of them were the disciples of the practitioner trade Association’s Vice-President, and the two brothers were in charge of the practitioner’s market right now. If Lin Yi dared to meddle, he’d just have to tell his two brothers and Lin Yi wouldn’t even be allowed in!

“Oh, in that case, I have a spirit gathering pill here.” Lin Yi took out a small bottle from his bag and handed it to the skinny man,”This is a first-grade pill. It’s already very good for you. I’ll use this to exchange for the blue crystal!”

“Gah?” The skinny man was stunned for a moment, but then he laughed out loud,””Hahahaha, kid, are you sure you’re not joking? You’re the funniest person I’ve ever seen …”

However, before the skinny man could finish his sentence, Lin Yi sent a slap across his face. Slap! The side of his face bulged.

“You … You hit me?” How could he have expected Lin Yi to make a move without any warning? In general, in this kind of conflict, both sides would first say a few words to show off their awkwardness. If they really couldn’t handle it, then they would start fighting. There was no deep hatred, so how could there be such a direct attack without knowing?

And so, the man didn’t even use his Qi to protect himself-his face was swollen right away, and he gritted his teeth in anger. He was just about to attack when Lin Yi suddenly released his Earth Class mid phase Peak’s pressure-it stopped him from fighting back, and his face turned ugly,”Earth Class mid phase peak?”

“Do you want to exchange?” Lin Yi asked coldly.

“Hmph, so what if I give it to you first?” The skinny man knew that a wise man knew better than to fight when the odds were against him. His big brother and second brother were earth Class late phase and late phase peak, but they were guarding the entrance of the market right now-they couldn’t help him. He took a deep breath and took out the blue crystal for Lin Yi, but he already hated Lin Yi in his heart. He remembered Lin Yi’s face and was ready to give it to Lin Yi when he came in. He’d tell his brothers-he’d give Lin Yi and that yang Qiqi some trouble!

Lin Yi smiled coldly as he put the blue crystal away. No one said anything up until this point, as if they didn’t care about the skinny man bullying Qiqi and Lin Yi bullying him. They only watched for fun and left. (To be continued.)
