Beauty and the Bodyguard

7229 Chapter 7227-

After all, the butterfly micro-step consumed a lot of energy. Without true Qi, and with his body being far weaker than before after rebirth, it was impossible to defeat everyone in Zhulu city in one fell swoop without using any divine sense attack skills!

The five cultivators who had been knocked unconscious were only a few of the more average ones among the people of Zhulu city!

“Brother Sima is indeed powerful! However, although your group of people is powerful, the rules now state that those who don’t fight will be eliminated. Brother Sima’s subordinates are just standing there to watch the show, are they prepared to give up?”

AI fan laughed dryly and glanced at Wu yucao and the rest.”If they’re ready to give up, then there’s nothing to fight between us!”

They were afraid of Lin Yi’s combat strength now, and they didn’t want to drag the trash around Lin Yi into the battle as it would be a big loss for them!

Originally, Zhulu city had the most people out of all the cities, but three of them were killed by Lin Yi on the flying spirit beast, and now another five were eliminated. In terms of numbers, they were one of the weaker forces!

Even if Lu Butong and Lin Yi were to join forces, they would be on the same level. Of course, in terms of individual strength, Zhulu city would still have the upper hand!

“Of course I can’t give up! It’s not easy for us to come to the sword spring sect, how can we just go back like this, don’t you agree, young city Lord AI?”

Lin Yi squinted his eyes and smiled, his eyes darting back and forth between AI fan’s men.”Do you still want to continue? Or should we change our strategy and fight one-on-one again?”

“Brother Sima, let’s not beat around the bush. If we fight like this, both sides will be at a disadvantage. Why don’t we join forces?”

AI fan rolled his eyes and suddenly chuckled.”With brother Sima’s strength, you will definitely be able to pass the assessment. It’s just that brother Sima’s men are in more danger. However, if we cooperate, the situation will be completely different!”

“What do you mean? Do you have any good suggestions, young city Lord AI?”

Lin Yi raised an eyebrow, interested.”If it’s suitable, I’d be very willing to cooperate with young city Lord AI!”

It wasn’t that Lin Yi had a good impression of AI fan, but the martial artists in Zhulu city were all very strong. Lin Yi’s body was too weak right now, and it was almost impossible to take them down without killing anyone. He also had to take care of Wu yucao and the others ‘advancement, which made it even more difficult.

If working with AI fan once could easily solve the problem with Wu yucao and the others, he could consider it.

“Brother Sima, you should know that this is only the first round of elimination. If we lose too many people, we might suffer more losses in the future. Therefore, if we join forces, not only will our strength increase greatly, but we can also preserve our manpower to the greatest extent, don’t you think?”

AI fan lowered his voice and got closer to Lin Yi.”Now that we’re in a combat state, let our people act and fight casually. First, we’ll make sure that we won’t be eliminated because we didn’t fight. Then, we’ll deal with people from other cities. This way, we can all stay on the list of people who will advance!”

Lin Yi nodded to himself.ai fan was indeed a talent, coming up with a solution to the problem in such a short time.

Without a doubt, he’d planned to eliminate everyone on Lin Yi’s side at first, but after realizing how difficult Lin Yi was, he changed his mind and suggested teaming up with him.

With Lin Yi’s strength and AI fan’s men’s strength, it was almost certain that he would become an official disciple of the sword spring sect!

“Alright, let’s do that!”

Lin Yi’s eyes lit up and he nodded in agreement.”Young master AI, it’s a pleasure working with you!”

“Happy cooperation!”

AI fan also revealed a big smile. The two of them immediately asked their men to go forward and fight for a while. Then, they retreated while groaning.

Both sides were saying things like “when you meet your opponent, you’ll meet a good talent.” If they continued to fight, both sides would only suffer losses, and they would fight again in the future. They would both stop and consider it a draw!

Lu Butong and the others who were watching from the side were dumbfounded. Could the sword spring sect’s adaptive elimination be played like this? It was indeed high!

Now that they had all taken action, they would not be recognized as those who had not taken action and were eliminated. All that was left was to continue challenging other cities or watch the Tigers fight from the sidelines!

When the people from the other cities were all injured, he would see if he could directly enter the other half of the list.

Lu Butong was a little flustered. He did not have a good relationship with AI fan, so he definitely could not use this move!

Lin Yi’s side was in the same city as him, and they couldn’t fight each other even if they were in two camps. He wanted to leave as soon as possible and find a team from another city to play the same game.

Unfortunately, AI fan would not give him the chance!

“Lu Butong, it’s your turn now. Do you want a group fight or a one-on-one fight?”

AI fan tilted his head and looked at Lu Butong with a faint smile. He did not need to say it out loud. Everyone knew what a group fight and a one-on-one fight were. “You’re the only ones left. Why don’t you surrender to me? after I’m done with the meat, I’ll throw you a bone!”

“AI fan, don’t go too far! We and Sima Yi are both from Deer Ridge city …”

Lu Butong felt really guilty and felt that it wasn’t right to say that. It wasn’t that he was using Lin Yi as a shield, but that he was from Luling city as well …

AI fan was fighting on behalf of Zhulu city against Luling city, and Lin Yi faked a fight to form an alliance with him. But Lu Butong was from Luling city, too, and they hadn’t fought yet …

Before fighting AI fan, he couldn’t find people from other cities even if he wanted to. He could only fight Zhulu city’s people first.

The problem was, would he have a chance to talk about it after the battle with Zhulu city?

“Lu Butong, be more careful! A brain is a good thing, but you really don’t have one! Hurry up, do you want to be eliminated, or do you want to obediently surrender to this young master and be a dog?”

AI fan sneered. He respected Lin Yi a lot, and that was what a strong man deserved. As for Lu Butong, he didn’t need to be polite.

Not to mention the grudges between Zhulu city and Luling city, just Lu Butong’s strength alone was enough for him to look down on him!

“AI fan, don’t be too smug. I won’t surrender to you even if I’m going to be eliminated today!”

Lu Butong was too embarrassed to surrender to AI fan, so he braced himself. After all, no one was allowed to die in the knockout round!

“You’re really tough! Not bad, not bad, Lu Butong, you’ve made me look at you in a new light!”

AI fan clapped his hands a few times, as if he really appreciated Lu Butong’s toughness. However, the next moment, the smile on his face disappeared completely. He ordered one of his subordinates, who was at the peak of the later stage of the Golden elixir realm,”Kill him! After you’re eliminated, Zhulu city will not mistreat you! All benefits will be increased tenfold!”
