Beauty and the Bodyguard

If these words were said before, everyone would definitely sneer at them.

However, at this moment, everyone was extremely obedient. None of the masters who could cultivate to the level of the Venerable were fools. They all knew what choices were best for themselves.

Several team leaders were extremely cooperative. Now that the deal is done, instead of feeling sorry for ourselves, we should quickly adjust our mentality and seize the opportunity.

Although at present, their ceiling by following Lin Yi is far lower than that of remaining in the Temple Guards, but if they can rise to the top and become Lin Yi's deputy, that would be another way of saying it.

Compared with the position of the deputy commander of the Temple Guards, the position of the deputy commander of the King of the Sea is certainly far behind, but at least it is higher than the position of the captain of their team.

Lin Yi is currently short of people, and this is a good opportunity for them to move up a level.

As a result, Lin Yi was seen releasing the big python.

"..."

The hearts of all the team leaders suddenly went cold.

Although their strength is much stronger than that of ordinary temple guards, there is still a huge gap between them and this genuine middle-level yellow-level venerable.

"He will be your commander from now on. As for the position of deputy commander, it depends on your own ability."

Lin Yi's words suddenly made everyone's eyes light up again.

Several team leaders who thought they were good at it started to think about it. If they could get the position of deputy commander, it would at least be equivalent to half a level advancement.

Once you have this qualification, you will have a chance to find a better job even if you leave Lin Yi's personal guard camp in the future.

"The rest is up to you."

Lin Yi gave instructions to the big python and acted as a hands-off shopkeeper out of habit.

The big snake looked confused: "Leave everything to me?"

After all, there is a whole group of former temple guards here. No matter where they are placed, they are definitely a force that cannot be underestimated. According to normal logic, they must be handed over to the hands of their confidants.

Although he has already joined Lin Yi, he is still young after all. No matter how you look at it, he is still far from being able to become Lin Yi's true confidant. No matter how much Lin Yi trusts him, he cannot be unreserved. of.

Even if the entire Guards Battalion is really handed over to him, to be reasonable, he will definitely need to find someone else to check and balance internally.

But looking at this posture, Lin Yi had no intention of doing so.

"Don't be suspicious of those you employ, and don't be suspicious of others. You don't have to think too much, just manage them in a down-to-earth manner."

Lin Yi doesn't have so many twists and turns. Internal checks and balances are needed, but that is something that needs to be considered after it grows in the future. If he starts to engage in internal friction now in the initial stage, he is definitely out of his mind.

What's more, Lin Yi is quite confident in his vision of people.

The big snake reacted and nodded excitedly: "Yes, I promise to fulfill our mission!"

Hou Mohe watched this scene from the side, and he couldn't help but think more highly of Lin Yi. This kind of ambition and courage are really not something that ordinary high-ranking people can have.

This king of the sea is indeed a majestic figure!

Hou Mohe came forward and suggested: "Actual combat is the best training. It is better to let them do some simple tasks first. While training the troops, it can also lay the foundation for the next plan."

Lin Yi raised his eyebrows slightly: "What task do you think is suitable?"

Hou Mohe chuckled and said, "The Lord has a plan in mind."

Lin Yi couldn't help but glance at him. This was the first time that the other party changed his title. From this moment on, he officially declared his surrender.

"I do have some ideas, but I'm not sure yet whether they are feasible or not. I still need you to help me with the details."

Hou Mohe nodded and immediately said: "The fifth royal family, the Qin family."

Lin Yi suddenly smiled: "Not bad."

This was indeed his intended plan.

The power of the King of the Sea is naturally destined to conflict with the Royal Family of the Four Seas, but with his current power, it is far from enough to compete head-on with the Royal Family of the Four Seas.

Although with the oracle's trump card, the Royal Family of the Four Seas is bound to have civil strife in the future, but it will take some time for it to truly take effect.

Since it is impossible to attack the Royal Family of the Four Seas directly at this stage, the only option left is to attack from the periphery.

The Qin family, known as the fifth royal family, is a ready target.

The various arrangements he had made before were also laying the foundation for the next step.

"The Qin family is indeed an excellent breakthrough point. It is inextricably linked with the royal families of the four seas, but its own strength needs to be much weaker. Even if the strength of the personal guard camp is not enough to destroy it for the time being, if it is just a shock, One time, but it’s more than enough.”

Hou Mohe suddenly took out a sea map in his hand, which was marked with densely packed key sea lanes, and pointed at several marked nodes.

"These are the core channels for the Qin family to connect with the land. If they are cut off, it will be a fatal blow to the Qin family."

"Even if you can't kill them at once, it can still be a huge deterrent to them. Think carefully about your next choice."

Lin Yi couldn't help but look at him with a strange expression: "Looking at you, you have been thinking about them for more than a day or two. You are indeed a thoughtful person."

If it were anyone else, if they suddenly heard their immediate boss commenting on themselves like this, they would always be somewhat nervous and would always try to defend themselves.

After all, no one wants to leave a dangerous image of a conspiracy and careerist to their boss.

However, Hou Mohe was very magnanimous: "Opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared. To be honest with you, Your Majesty, I have been thinking about the plan for the Royal Family of the Four Seas for three years. Between the Poseidon God and them, the future is destined to only remain. Next."

"Then I've got ready-made food. It seems I'm lucky."

Lin Yi smiled.

He has never been afraid of what the people under him might think. On the contrary, for a lazy person like him who is used to being a hands-off shopkeeper, it would be really troublesome if the people under him had no enterprising spirit.

After discussing the details with Hou Mohe, Lin Yi decisively finalized the action plan and asked Hou Mohe to stay and assist the big snake in arranging the operation, while he immediately set off for the Qin family.

The main residence of the Qin family.

The head of the family, Qin Kaiyun, looked at the greeting card in his hand and couldn't help but have a little doubt on his face: "The newly promoted offshore king Lin Yi? Why did he suddenly think of coming to our place?"

Qin Yitong, the eldest son next to him, frowned and said: "After King Jinhai took office, according to the traditional practice, he had to visit the four major royal families, but it is really unexpected that he chose to come to our Qin family as his first stop."

Although the Qin family is known as the fifth royal family, in the eyes of many outsiders who don't know what's going on, they are already on a par with the royal families of the four seas.
