Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 1178 – Don’t Want To Go

It was getting a bit much, even for someone with Lin Yi’s mental resistance. His walls were starting to fall a little! Things might go wrong if this continued one! Lin Yi took a deep breath.

He couldn’t deny that Lingshan had a great body and a pretty face and even had the additional roleplay element. Lin Yi was struggling.

“I can’t do that for you right now- Wait until I get to Earth class.” Lin Yi quickly interrupted.

“Huh?” Lingshan blinked- she thought that this leveling up was a one-time thing, and he would never do it for her again since this is the maximum he could’ve done. After all, other people’s qi was different since the arts they practiced were different- a little was fine, but too much was problematic!

Of course, Lingshan didn’t know that Lin Yi’s qi was an all-purpose qi, becoming the same type of qi her body had once it entered. This was his trump card, after all, his plot armor.

“We can still do that?” Lingshan asked, surprised. She was already a late phase peak at Golden class, that was good already- how much stronger would she get if Lin YI did that again? A Mystic?

“Yes, but you probably won’t get into Earth class- only around Mystic late phase peak or something, I’m not too sure about how things work yet, but you’ll always be a bit lower than me.” Lin Yi explained. “Well, don’t tell this to other people- I don’t want to see a bunch of them lining up at my house to get level-ups.”

“I’m not an idiot, of course, I wouldn’t tell!” Lingshan said. Of course, she wouldn’t want others to know. “Can I become Mystic late phase peak?”

Lingshan didn’t dare imagine it- Mystic late phase peak. That was the strongest among the typical houses! Was it possible for her to have that strength? And Lin Yi even brought up the topic of Earth class? Lingshan didn’t know what to say. She knew he was strong, but she didn’t think he was that strong!

Other people’s goals were to go up half level by half level, and this Lin Yi was aiming for Earth right away. Could it be that Lin Yi was already Mystic late phase peak?! Lingshan was getting excited. This was the man she admired after all!

“Wait until I break through into Earth class- I don’t know when that will be.” Lin Yi said. He wasn’t even a Mystic late phase peak yet, and she was already looking forward to it? Wasn’t that too greedy? Here he was, trying hard to level up, and she just wanted him to boost him up in a happy little session? That wasn’t fair!

Although, if someone were to hear these thoughts coming from Lin Yi, they’d be spitting blood. The guy had a trump card, a special space that let him mass-produce masters. That was already a godlike status, and this guy was complaining about working hard?!

“Okay!” Lingshan said. “Then this dumbass girl will wait for you to breakthrough. I’ll wash myself clean for you at that time!”

“…Is this all you called for?” Lin Yi said speechlessly.

“Well, no… There’s another thing- You know about Liu Bojia, right? Chen Yutian asked me to go pretend to be a thief couple and join a tomb raid- I wanted to invite you. With your strength, it’d be a lot less dangerous…” Lingshan said.

“Tomb raid with you guys?” Lin Yi blinked.

“Not tomb raiding with us, but taking in the tomb thieves, as well as record the methods to get through the tomb for our archaeology team,” Lingshan explained.

“Not interested.” Lin Yi said faintly. “I have to stay here and protect Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu, there’s a hidden House Pi or something working with House Xiao these days, and now there are some practitioners there. They’ll come for us sooner or later, and that Gou Huli even brought a lion here to cause trouble!”

“A lion?” Lingshan paused. “Seriously? Where’s the lion now?”

“Forced up a tree by my Golden class dog. Still there.” Lin Yi smiled. “I also leveled up the dog.”

Lingshan was speechless- this Lin Yi just randomly turned a dog into a golden class dog..?

But this proved just how powerful Lin Yi was! Creating master fighters wasn’t trouble at all!

“Aren’t you also studying medicine? According to our research, this tomb might very well be from a miracle doctor from the Song Dynasty, aren’t you interested?” Lingshan started bringing out stuff that might interest him. “There might be some ancient texts about medicine, and while we can’t give it to you we can give you some photocopies!”

Lingshan was someone with the principle- she couldn’t just use these artifacts as bribes, but he could let him take a look. Not that he needed to have the original or anything.

“Haha, not too interested.” Lin Yi didn’t care much. There were plenty of those in Old LIn’s house that he didn’t even have time to finish. Why would he go read someone else’s? Plus, he didn’t have time for that. Who knew how many dozens of days it’d take?

“Ah?” Lingshan didn’t expect that even this wouldn’t enough. She was a bit disappointed. “Please consider it a bit more then, treat it as protecting dumbass girl. There’s a lot of danger in there. Aren’t you worried your dumbass girl might die?”

“Then don’t go then.” Lin Yi said. “Anything else?”

“N..Nothing…” Lingshan was disappointed, but she couldn’t force Lin Yi to go or anything. And so she let it be. “Then think about it a bit more. It’s no rush, so maybe the matter with House Xiao would be solved by then.

“We’ll see.” With that, Lin Yi hung up.

After hanging up, he walked out of the room and into the living room. He’d realized earlier when Huli came with the lion, but he peeked through the bathroom curtain gap and saw that Yushu was going with Weiwu, and so he relaxed. A lion was no match for General Weiwu.

By the time he walked out, Yushu was already telling Mengyao about the bravery of Weiwu and how he conquered the lion. She turned and noticed him. “Shield Bro, you didn’t see, but that Gou Huli brought a lion here, and General Weiwu destroyed it!”
