Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 1355: Add a Girl

Chapter 1354 – Add a Girl

Lin Yi had a Qi bomb ultimate, but this was something that severely damaged him. Plus, it needed time for the energy to be compressed- he didn’t know if Elder Yu would give him enough time to pull that off!

If Lingshan and Yutian were able to buy some time for him, that’d be good, but they were too weak. Golden class... Even if they were late phase peak, an Earth class could kill them instantly.

“Yeah, and even so, it’s still thanks to you, otherwise were even weaker...” Chentian smiled bitterly and self mockingly. “If we were both Mystics, even if it’s just early phase, we could help you fight for a bit, too...”

“I have a killer move that you guys probably heard from Elder Yu already, called Energy bomb. Basically, I compress the qi inside of me and let it go in a burst, resulting in a very powerful explosion. The problem is I need time to compress it.” Lin Yi said. “If you guys can buy some time for me, I’ll be able to damage him severely, and keep him here, but...”

Yutian and Lingshan had questions about that energy bomb that Elder Yu mentioned, but they wouldn’t ask them. This concerned personal martial secrets, and just like Yutian wouldn’t ask Lingshan about her arts. He wouldn’t ask Lin Yi. They were friends and teammates, but even so, he couldn’t ask him.

There were rules of the practitioner’s world, with each sect and noble house having their own rules. These secrets belonged only to the insiders of the sect or the family.

“Maybe we could use our lives to hold him off for a while when the time comes?” Yutian sighed.

“If you two were Mystics, then I would say yes- after all, it’s two on one, and as long as it’s good teamwork, the injuries will be minor. I can heal you guys anyway.” Lin Yi rejected. “But you guys aren’t strong enough at all right now,. You might get instantly killed. I can’t pull you two down with me just to save Xiaoxiao! She’s my girlfriend, but you two are my best friends. You three all are equal. I can’t let you take this risk.”

Yutian felt touched at those words- it seemed like Lin Yi really did care heavily about him!

But Lingshan was sulking a little- can’t she be a girlfriend too? She didn’t want to be good friends, come on! Why couldn’t she be like Xiaoxiao?

“Can you add a Girl?” Lingshan begged pitifully.

“Ah?” Lin Yi paused- the hell was this person saying?

“Can you add a Girl in front of the friend?” Lingshan repeated helplessly.

“Add a Girl in front of friend?” Lin Yi repeated- he couldn’t help but smiled. “Ha...”

“Come on, yes or no?!” Lingshan was panicking.

“Let’s not talk about this right now. I have to focus on other things- we’ll talk about it after we get out alive!” Lin Yi waved his hand- it was considered a rejection.

Lingshan felt really troubled- if it were a different girl getting rejected, she’d be really embarrassed, but Lingshan was already used to it. She was just a bit pissed off.

“Fine, fine, I’ll use my life to get you those notes later!” Lingshan felt that Lin Yi treated even Xiaoke better than he treated her, and so she spoke out of frustration. “I’m not as talented as you, can’t level up as fast- I’ll only be able to throw my life on it, I guess.”

“Not as fast...” Lin Yi paused as he thought about those words, remembering how he broke through last time, using compressed energy to forcefully strengthen himself. If that worked and leveled him up, would it work for these two too?

They were both late phase peak Golden class, with only one step away from Mystic- this meant that, with enough compressed energy, leveling them up right now wasn’t something too difficult at all!

Lingshan felt her hairs stand up as she looked at Lin Yi’s stare- she thought that Lin Yi was thinking that she was pretty at first, and was feeling shy when the stare persisted for too long. “You... Why are you looking at me like that? Are you going to eat me up or something?”

“You’re late phase peak Golden class right now- will you reach Mystic after just a bit more qi?” Lin Yi asked.

“Yeah, but the qi here is thinner, and it isn’t that easy to break through a bottleneck. Sometimes, when I practition, I try to suck in more pure and thick qi, but it just doesn’t come. It’s just a bit more that’s always insufficient for breaking through...” Lingshan nodded.

Lingshan’s description wasn’t the best, but Lin Yi understood. It was similar to when he had to level up through a bottleneck. It was the same for all practitioners!

As a result, he wanted to test this out. If he could do it, why couldn’t others? Although there was a certain risk involved. He decided to just tell them.

“I have a method that can let you guys absorb a level of qi that’s way, way thicker than the usual amount you take in. But there are risks...” Lin Yi said seriously. “This is similar to the compressed qi bomb- I’ll compress qi and let you take it in your body- it’ll expand inside you, and this should push you guys to Mystic... This worked on my body, but I don’t know if it’ll work for you guys. I don’t know what might happen if it doesn’t work...”

Lingshan and Yutian understood the words- they looked at each other, and saw that both had the same desire!

The desire for Mystic class! Mystic was the top power of the common noble houses already, and if a Mystic appeared in both House Song and House Chen, that was a very big deal- it gave them a lot of authority in the noble house meeting!

Even House Yu would have to give them more respect!

No pain, no gain- they understood what Lin Yi was saying. Success meant big celebrations, but failure... They didn’t even know what the punishment was.

“I want to try...” A moment of silence later, the two almost spoke at the same time. They weren’t people who wasted time on decisions- after seriously considering the risks and rewards. They made their decision.
