Beauty and the Bodyguard

The attendant replied: "The people below are watching. I just saw him going to the official shop."

"A government-run shop?"

The middle-aged manager couldn't help but smile: "It's interesting. He's really a stubborn young man. Let's go and see the excitement."

At this time, Lin Yi stepped into the official shop.

The decoration is splendid, but compared to the long queue on the other side, which is only a hundred meters apart, this side is empty. Not to mention the queue, not even a single person can be seen.

"Hey, what do you do?"

A voice came from behind the high counter, and it turned out to be a woman dressed as a maid.

Lin Yi raised his head and glanced: "I'm here to buy the life crystal. I heard that the price is 70% of the previous price."

"Yes, it is indeed 70%."

The maid nodded: "Bring me your identity card."

Lin Yi nodded and handed over an identity card.

Of course, this was not his own identity card, but it was not forged either. It was something specially arranged by Hou Mohe before he came.

The East China Sea, the West China Sea, and the South China Sea, as long as they are nominally under his jurisdiction, must uniformly change their identity tags. This is an important certificate for many things in the future, including the purchase of life crystals.

However, the other party only glanced at it symbolically, and then threw the identity card back: "Ocean King stipulates that each person is limited to three yuan per month. Your quota has been used up, please wait until next month."

Lin Yi narrowed his eyes: "I have never bought one."

The maid shrugged indifferently: "That's none of my business. Anyway, you can no longer buy this identity tag, so let's go."

Lin Yi said calmly: "I heard people said that ordinary people can't get in here, and only those with power can buy low-priced life crystals. I didn't believe it at first, but now it seems that it is true. "

Price reduction was originally a good thing, but in this situation, it turned a good thing into a bad thing.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

The maid's expression changed, and she quickly called over a group of strong bodyguard masters: "This man is looking for trouble, get out of here quickly."

However, before a group of guards could surround him, Lin Yi just narrowed his eyes and were all stunned to the ground.

With his current strength, masters below the Nascent Soul stage would not be able to withstand even his minimum aura, let alone close combat, and would be stunned no matter how hard he came.

As for the maid, she naturally couldn't bear the impact of such aura and fainted along with her.

Lin Yi walked into the counter, took out the account book and took a few glances.

The books looked normal. They were selling strictly according to the quota, and the life crystals had been sold for as much as 50,000 yuan. However, this account could not withstand scrutiny at all.

Because the name on his identity card was among them, and he had just purchased three life crystals!

"The steps are too big, it's really easy to pull the balls."

Lin Yi already regretted it at this moment. He was used to being the boss with both hands and entrusting everything to others, but now it seems that there are many things that he can't do without taking care of himself.

But then again, this is mainly because he has grown too fast. His strength and territory have increased, but his team configuration has not kept up.

Something will happen sooner or later.

"How brave! He Fang Xiaoxiao dares to break into my official store without permission!"

With a sharp shout, a group of masters suddenly filed in and surrounded Lin Yi.

Compared with the group of guards who fell on the ground, this group of people was obviously much stronger, but what surprised Lin Yi a little was that they were all female cultivators!

Unlike land, the proportion of female cultivators in the vast sea is actually not low, and they can be seen everywhere.

However, a pure female cultivator team like this is still quite rare. The key is that the strength of these women is not low, and all of them have reached the threshold of giant masters.

In addition, they are all sword cultivators.

The sword formation formed by the opponent was full of flaws in Lin Yi's eyes, but for most practitioners, it was already a rare and powerful sword formation.

Such a lineup, placed in such a remote area, is completely invincible.

A soft female voice sounded from outside the door: "Rescue the one on the ground first. It's too embarrassing to lie like this."

The female cultivators nodded in agreement and immediately tried to wake up the guards on the ground. However, no matter how hard she tried, there was still no movement. Although she seemed uninjured, there was no sign of being awakened.

"People I knock down don't wake up easily."

Lin Yi said casually, glanced at the charming woman who came in, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

This girl is very beautiful, but she is only skinned and has no aura of worldliness. Not to mention compared to his confidante Chu Mengyao, to some extent even the ordinary-looking Wei Yu'er can't compare.

At least Wei Yuer has some temperament.

The charming woman frowned and looked at him: "Who are you?"

Lin Yi didn't answer and asked instead: "I should actually ask this question. This is a government-run shop. Are you the boss here?"

"How dare you! How dare you speak to my young lady in such a tone!"

All the female cultivators shouted loudly, and the sword energy in their hands was surging, trying to suppress Lin Yi with the power of the sword formation.

However, Lin Yi just glanced at them lightly, and the dozens of long swords pointed at Lin Yi all took off their hands, falling to the ground spontaneously, tilted at 45 degrees in his direction.

It’s like a scene of collective worship!

The whole audience was stunned.

Lin Yi didn't care about this. He was now a real sword master. Even the ten famous swords of ancient times bowed to him. The remaining sword spirits in the sword tomb collectively respected him as a god, not to mention those in front of him in his eyes. An ordinary sword.

Anyone who has a little bit of spirituality will worship them. This is their innate instinct.

The female cultivators opposite had never seen such a scene before, and they were all shocked.

The soft and charming woman felt a chill in her heart. She obviously knew that she was in trouble, so she immediately announced her family name: "My name is Chen Ping'er, and I am the manager of this government-run shop. What do you call me?"

"Chen Ping'er?"

Lin Yi ignored her question at all and continued: "What does the Chen's shop next door have to do with you?"

Chen Ping'er narrowed her eyes slightly: "This doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right?"

Lin Yi curled his lips lightly: "Why doesn't it matter? I'm here to buy the life crystal. People here said that I have already bought it this month and there is no quota. According to this statement, I can only buy it from the other side. The price is high. I can't afford it."

"..."

For a moment, everyone was unable to refute.

Although life crystals are the most basic survival materials, for truly powerful people, they are never in short supply, even if they are penniless.

After all, this thing is just like food. As long as you have strength, everyone can be seen as your granary.
