Beauty and the Bodyguard

“You are now considered a popular person in the Inner Court. If I capture you, I should be able to exchange you for some good things.”

Lightning flashed in Heaven Duke’s eyes as he turned into lightning and descended on Lin Yi, enveloping him in all directions.

The aura that was inadvertently revealed caused everyone present to have grave expressions.

Wei Zhesheng couldn’t help but break out in cold sweat for Lin Yi.

Without Lin Yi’s cooperation, they wouldn’t be able to do anything.

If he interfered rashly, not only would he not be of any help, he would even be a hindrance.

They could only stand guard in the outer circle and watch.

Under the lightning, Lin Yi’s body flashed everywhere.

In just an instant, he had already exchanged thousands of blows with the other lightning figure!

The only thing he was sure of was that Lin Yi wasn’t Li Jianlong, not some weakling that Heaven Duke could kill with a thought.

Even if Heaven Duke had the upper hand, he wouldn’t be able to take Lin Yi down so easily.

At the very least, he couldn’t kill them instantly.

After a moment, both parties finally separated. The contempt on Heaven Duke’s face was swept away, replaced by an unexpected seriousness.

“You do have something. You’re a little stronger than the other trash.”

Heaven Duke’s face was a little embarrassed.

He looked like he had the upper hand in the fight, but in reality, he didn’t have the slightest advantage against Lin Yi.

He was a top-tier King, and his combat strength was off the charts. How could he accept the fact that Lin Yi had forced him to a draw?

“Again!” Lin Yi’s eyes lit up.

As soon as he finished speaking, he took the initiative to attack again.

Wei Zhesheng and the others were flabbergasted.

What did he mean? From the looks of it, he was actually going to turn the tables. Could it be that his lord was taking advantage of him?

Lin Yi was indeed at an advantage.

This could be seen from Heaven Duke’s increasingly ugly expression.

Lightning was his innate talent. As long as he was in the lightning field, his strength would be strengthened in all aspects. This was his absolute home ground. ꭆÂＮО₿ΕŜ

However, Lin Yi seemed to have become like a fish in the water, as if he had received a boost in strength in the lightning field!

Little did he know that Lin Yi was an expert at controlling lightning, but he hadn’t used it much recently.

Lin Yi’s familiarity with the lightning field, especially his understanding of the nature of lightning, wasn’t any less than the heavenly duke.

The thunder field was his home ground, and it was also Lin Yi’s home ground!

Heaven Duke didn’t believe it and raised his attack and defense to another level, trying to drag Lin Yi down.

This was the usual way the strong dealt with the weak.

Some experts looked powerful and seemed to have mastered the power of surpassing levels. However, as long as the rhythm was fast, they would be full of flaws and eventually be suppressed by one side.

Unfortunately, Lin Yi didn’t.

The existence of an intermediate divine body naturally gave him a very high tolerance.

The faster the tempo, the more he would be like a fish in water.

On the contrary, Heaven Duke himself was gradually unable to do what he wanted, faintly showing signs of going overboard.

However, Lin Yi didn’t change his mind just because of the few flaws. He still maintained his usual offensive and defensive strategy.

“You actually didn’t fall for it?”

Heaven Duke’s expression darkened.

Every single one of these openings was filled with killing intent-if Lin Yi fell into the trap, he’d be at a disadvantage even if he didn’t die instantly.

He didn’t expect Lin Yi to be so indifferent!

His combat power was 460?

He had the strength talisman, and he could see Lin Yi’s strength clearly-it was four hundred and sixty.

However, if it was any other expert with a combat power of 460, they would have been lying on the ground by now. How could they still be so lively?

But he knew that Lin Yi’s performance was shocking, but it didn’t really exceed the four hundred and sixty combat power range.

The real problem was that he used his weakness to kick Lin Yi’s long board.

The two separated again.

“Arrogance is the biggest obstacle to survival. Heaven Duke, if you don’t show us your true abilities, you’re really going to have to stay here today.” Lin Yi reminded.

Heaven Duke’s face was ashen.” You’re not being modest. It was just a warm-up. If you’re so arrogant, you’re celebrating too early!”

“Is that so?”

“I’m waiting for Heaven Duke to teach me a lesson,” Lin Yi said calmly.

“Good! As you wish!”

Heaven Duke couldn’t help but be exasperated, but he learned his lesson this time. He didn’t choose to continue fighting with Lin Yi in close combat, and instead took the initiative to pull away.

In essence, he was a mage, not a warrior.

But Lin Yi wasn’t going to do as he wished.

The key to being able to cross the huge gap in combat strength and form a stalemate with the other party was to use one’s strengths to attack the enemy’s weaknesses.

If he really entered the opponent’s rhythm, even if he had an intermediate divine body, he probably wouldn’t be able to withstand it.

He had to block before the opponent finished accumulating power and once again complete close combat, dragging him into a fast-paced close-quarters attack and defense.

Lin Yi’s speed was extremely fast with the help of the lightning field.

In the blink of an eye, he had turned into a lightning shadow and appeared in front of the other party.

“You’re late.”

Heaven Duke sneered and pointed at Lin Yi’s forehead.

A pitch-black lightning bolt passed through his body.

Finger of Death.

The world instantly fell silent.

Seeing Lin Yi collapse, Wei Zhesheng and the others were all dumbfounded.

The entire turn of events happened too fast, so fast that they could not react in time.

One second, Lin Yi was still alive and kicking, fighting back and forth with his opponent, but the next second, he was dead.

” You don’t know your place. Do you really think you can fight to a draw with me?”

Heaven Duke revealed a delighted smile, but his expression was not so relaxed. Instead, he was trying his best to suppress some kind of intense backlash.

The reason he fought Lin Yi in close combat wasn’t because he was stupid.

The key was that his internal injuries had yet to recover, so he did not dare to use his full strength.

This Finger of Death was the limit of his control.

At this point, he could still barely suppress the backlash. If he went one step further, even if others did not hit him, just the backlash alone would make him drink a pot of good wine.

Heaven Duke looked coldly at Wei Zhesheng and the others, not hiding his contempt.

“Your leader is already dead. Are you trash going to stay and be buried with him, or are you going to get lost and save your dog lives?”

Wei Zhesheng and the others looked solemn.

However, no one retreated.

“A bunch of fools who don’t know how to cherish their lives.” Heaven Duke sneered.

Lin Yi’s voice suddenly sounded.

” The words ‘cherish life’ sound more like a cold joke coming from your mouth. You’re very humorous.”

Everyone was shocked.

Heaven Duke’s eyes landed on Lin Yi’s ‘corpse’, and he couldn’t hide the shock on his face.

Lin Yi, who was already dead, was now alive from the inside out. He stood up on the spot.
