Beauty and the Bodyguard

The spot between his eyebrows that had been pierced by the Finger of Death healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the blink of an eye, it was completely intact.

Heaven Duke subconsciously took two steps back, his scalp tingling as he looked at Lin Yi.

It wasn’t like he hadn’t seen monsters with insane self-healing abilities before, but it was the first time he’d seen someone like Lin Yi, who didn’t only heal on the surface, but didn’t even lose any of his energy.

“If I were you, my first reaction would be to run.”

Lin Yi suggested seriously.

Heaven Duke couldn’t help but laugh in anger. You want me to run? It’s just a cover-up trump card. Do you really think you’re that powerful?”

“My power is limited, but what if we add King Zhao?” Lin Yi said slowly.

“King Zhao?”

He wasn’t afraid of Lin Yi, and he wasn’t afraid of the experts from the Safety Inspection Division, but Zhao Wang wasn’t someone he could underestimate.

Even when he was at his peak, he was no match for King Zhao in a one-on-one battle. He might not even be able to escape from King Zhao.

Not to mention his current appearance?

Fortunately, King Zhao did not appear within his perception range.

Heaven Duke relaxed slightly. His expression was cold and mocking.” You’re still bluffing at this time. It seems like you really don’t have any other tricks.”

“I’m an honest person. I’ve always only spoken the truth.”

“See for yourself if you don’t believe me.” Lin Yi looked at him sincerely and pointed at the top of his head.

Heaven Duke hesitated for a moment, but he still pretended to be disdainful.” Is there any meaning in using this kind of trick to fool a three-year-old child?”

“I didn’t think it was interesting at first, but now I think it’s actually quite interesting.” Lin Yi’s expression was weird.

“..”

Heaven Duke laughed coldly, but before he could taunt again, a fatal crisis was approaching.

He subconsciously looked up and saw a golden saber intent that had been restrained to the extreme. At this moment, it was half suspended above his head, less than 100 feet away from him.

Heaven Duke was instantly scared out of his wits.

He had fought with King Zhao before, so he naturally knew that this was King Zhao’s signature move.

The name of the move was quite simple.

The decapitating knife.

Once this blade landed, no matter how strong an expert was, they would not be able to escape the fate of being beheaded on the spot. King Zhao’s great reputation was built up by relying on the heads of so many experts. Ř₳ꞐÖʙÊS̈

There was no time to argue, and Heaven Duke retreated without a word.

However, the decapitating knife had already locked onto his body, following him like a shadow. He escaped quickly, but the decapitating knife chased after him even faster!

Under the pressure of death, Heaven Duke could no longer spare any energy to suppress the backlash in his body. He could only expand the range of the lightning field at all costs.

Only by completely merging himself into the lightning field could he have a chance of dodging this blade.

Heaven Duke wasn’t a bad person, but he forgot that there was Lin Yi beside him.

Lin Yi had already transformed into Chi You, his body shaking the heavens and earth.

A huge fist smashed into the lightning field.

It seemed like he had only punched the air, but in the next second, as the quaking rule power that was close to the coronation level spread out, the entire lightning field was instantly shattered into pieces!

Puff!

Heaven Duke, who had fused into the lightning field, spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot and was forced to reform his body.

At this moment, the decapitation knife fell at the right time.

Absolute Kill.

Heaven Duke turned to look at Lin Yi, unwilling to believe that he would die in the hands of a young man he didn’t even care about.

The one who killed him was Zhao Wang, and the one who sent him to hell was Lin Yi.

At the last moment, a strange power that was completely different from all the powers that everyone knew suddenly appeared out of thin air and wrapped around Heaven Duke.

The moment the decapitating knife came into contact with it, it was actually disintegrated on the spot.

” Anti-rule power!”

Heaven Duke was pleasantly surprised.

He was already in complete despair and admitted defeat. He did not expect that he could actually survive from a desperate situation!

An unfamiliar voice entered his sea of consciousness.

“Retreat quickly! I can’t hold on for long!”

Heaven Duke did not dare to be negligent. As a core high-ranking member of the Heavenly Gates, he naturally knew the wonders of the anti-rule power.

But he was facing Zhao Wang and Lin Yi.

Just Lin Yi alone was enough to make things difficult for him, not to mention that he had to face Zhao Wang’s attacks from afar.

There was no need for King Zhao to show himself. If the situation just now happened again, he would definitely die.

No matter how amazing the anti-rule power was, it still depended on who was using it.

Lin Yi threw another punch.

Clang!

With a muffled sound that sounded like the world was shattering, a huge vibration of rule power passed through the air and into Heaven Duke’s body, causing him to spit out another mouthful of blood.

Heaven Duke did not dare to hesitate any longer. He did not even have the time to say a word of courtesy and immediately turned into a bolt of lightning to escape.

Although Wei Zhesheng and the others had already laid down an inescapable net, the moment they came into contact with it, a gap was directly created by it. They could not stop it at all.

“What’s going on?”

Everyone was shocked.

Seeing Lin Yi’s bravery and Zhao Wang’s support, they thought that they would be able to take down Heaven Duke today.

He did not expect that he would be able to escape just like that. Moreover, it was so easy. It was simply unbelievable.

Even a top-notch royal power wouldn’t be able to crack the formation that they had set up together so easily, right?

However, Wei Zhesheng saw through it and was bewildered.” Is this the legendary power that goes against the rules?” Could it be that Xia Chao has returned?”

The others were even more shocked.

The news of Xia Chao’s death had yet to be made public.

Although it had been a long time since that incident, his reputation still made people’s hearts palpitate.

There was no other reason. Whether it was the philosophy that this person adhered to or the anti-rule power that he grasped, they were too heaven-defying. Just mentioning them made one’s scalp go numb.

The scar he had left on the entire Inner Court had yet to completely heal.

Who would have thought that the anti-rule power that made everyone’s expressions change would actually reappear in the martial arts world today!

The key was that this person had saved Heaven Duke. Even if he was not Xia Chao himself, he must have a close relationship with Elysium.

With all these signs combined, the Elysium, which had been silent for a long time, seemed to be making a comeback.

“What should we do?”

Everyone looked at Lin Yi.

“Split into ten teams and search. He’s injured pretty badly, he can’t be too far.” Lin Yi ordered.

“Yes, sir!”

Wei Zhesheng and the others immediately left.

Lin Yi didn’t chase after him-letting Heaven Duke go was part of his plan.

He wanted to make use of this opportunity to let Xia Qiyuan infiltrate the Heavenly Gates.
