Beauty and the Bodyguard

” I knew it the moment I saw Shizu Bai. After all, the two of you smell quite similar.”

Lin Yi said with a smile.

He had a cheating method like the world’s will. Unless he really hid it very deeply and his methods were so brilliant that he could deceive the gods, it would be difficult for anyone to hide their true colors in front of him.

“As for your second question, I’m not good at playing the zither, but I’m sure it’s not strange for me to copy the cat and play the tiger, right?” Lin Yi said faintly.

Bai Xiao was speechless.

Bai Xiao was not the only one who was shocked by his heaven-defying words, but all the civil and military officials of the inner court.

Bai Shizu’s zither music wasn’t something that was cultivated. It was said that when he was born, the entire city’s buildings were filled with the sound of zither music.

This was a true phenomenon.

It was also with the blessing of this phenomenon that Bai Shizu stood out from countless talents since he was young and was selected and nurtured by the current Qin King.

The sound of the zither was his trademark. Over the years, there were many experts who tried to imitate him, but in the end, they all ended up drawing tigers and dogs.

Who would’ve thought that Lin Yi would be able to imitate him so easily with just a single glance?

If not for this, how could Bai Xiao have a conditioned reflex and easily reveal a flaw?

He was Bai Shizu’s musical attendant.

No one in the world was more familiar with Bai Shizu’s zither music than him!

Lin Yi’s casual imitation of the zither might have fooled the others, but now he had fooled Bai Xiao in front of everyone. This scene stunned everyone who knew about it.

“How did Lin Yi do it? Can any of you explain?” The emperor asked.

All the civil and military officials in the court were silent.

In the end, Wu Wudi said,”Downward compatibility.”

The King of Chu scoffed.” Marquis Wu is exaggerating. He’s just a country bumpkin. How can he be compatible with Bai Shizu?”

“Lin Yi’s understanding and control of the essence of power is superior to Bai Shizu’s. That’s the only explanation.” Wu Wudi said faintly.

Lord Chu was surprised and immediately wanted to mock and refute.

However, after Wu Wudi finished speaking, he immediately retreated and did not speak again.

The Inner Court was silent.

As the symbol of a top-tier royal power, no one dared to underestimate Wu Wudi’s judgment. Even if many people, like King Chu, disagreed from the bottom of their hearts, they had to admit that this was indeed a possibility.

However, Lin Yi was just an unaffiliated cultivator from the outside world. How could he suppress Bai Shizu with his understanding of the nature of power?

At the scene.

Other than Kong Shenglin, who had a surprised look in his eyes, the rest of the people had not thought of this. What shocked everyone at this moment was Bai Xiao’s self-detonation of his identity.

“Is this guy a spy sent by Bai Shizu?”

Everyone broke out in cold sweat as if they were facing a great enemy.

If that was the case, then the group of people that Bai Shizu had sent out to destroy was Bai Xiao’s doing.

As long as he, the spy, was there, not only that group of people, but everyone else at the scene would sooner or later follow in the same footsteps.

Perhaps Bai Shizu was nearby and could attack them at any time.

However, after a short moment of astonishment, Bai Xiao did not panic in the slightest, his face calm and confident.

“Since my identity has been exposed, I won’t hide it anymore. That’s right, I was sent by my young master to recruit you.”

“Recruit?” Everyone was stunned.

Bai Xiao laughed disdainfully.” Don’t think too highly of yourselves. You can’t even find the most basic perfect realm. Even without me, you won’t be able to affect my young master in the slightest.”

” It’s just that my young master has a compassionate heart. He believes that the Divine Kingdom on land is the foundation of the Inner Court. If the vitality of the Divine Kingdom on land is hurt because of this Hundred Seedlings Plan, he will be somewhat reluctant.”

” Therefore, my young master is willing to give you a chance. A chance to seize your own life!”

Everyone looked at each other with complicated expressions.

“Is what you said true?” someone asked.

Bai Xiao smiled.” Look at yourselves. With my family’s Young Master’s status, what do you think about yourself that can catch his eye?”

Lin Yi couldn’t help but look at Xu Anshan.

“What?” Xu Anshan’s eyelids twitched.

“Bai Shizu let you go before, could you be his target?” Lin Yi replied with his spirit sense.

“Why not you?” Xu Anshan thought for a moment.

No matter how he looked at it, Lin Yi was definitely the most special one. According to logic, if Bai Shizu really wanted someone from Divine Kingdom on land, Lin Yi would be the first target.

Lin Yi smiled and said through his spirit sense,” I won’t hide it from you. I thought the same at first, but after fighting with him, I know that I’m a hidden danger in his eyes. I don’t have any other value. If he really came for me, he wouldn’t have sent Bai Xiao here.”

Xu Anshan nodded slightly.

If not for Bai Xiao, none of them would have reached the Perfect Stage, and they would most likely still be a bunch of headless flies.

That way, the threat to Bai Shizu would be much smaller than now.

He wasn’t a fool-if he didn’t have any ulterior motives, he’d be crazy to send Bai Xiao to level up Lin Yi and the others.

Since the target wasn’t Lin Yi himself, there weren’t many people left that Bai Shizu would be interested in.

Kong Shenglin was one of them.

However, until now, there had been no obvious interaction between Kong Shenglin and Bai Shizu. The most likely person was Xu Anshan, who had met Bai Shizu before but eventually escaped unscathed.

“Could it be that he’s interested in your status as a natural born emperor?” Lin Yi suddenly thought.

Xu Anshan was skeptical.

As the person involved, he had a vague intuition in this regard, but it was not easy to determine whether it was true or not.

At this moment, Bai Xiao, who had revealed his identity, had a fearless expression.” I’ve already said what I should say. As for what to choose next, it depends on everyone’s thoughts.”

” Whether you want to go against my young master and walk down the dark path, or accept my young master’s protection and even gain his favor and have the last laugh in this cruel competition, you can vote now!”

Everyone looked at each other and hesitated.

The choice between Lin Yi and Bai Xiao wasn’t easy, but Lin Yi’s power wasn’t something Bai Xiao could easily shake in a short period of time.

But now that Bai Shizu had been brought out, the weight was completely different.
