Beauty and the Bodyguard

Not far ahead is the boundary of the Bone Burial Ground, and beyond is the Land of God.

This group of people was the same group of people who had been human slaves in the Hundred Saints City before, and then openly turned against them and pursued Lin Yi under the temptation of the Heavenly Saint's blessing.

Before the Bone Burial Ground was lost, they were in a closed environment, and they behaved quite honestly without causing too much trouble.

But in fact, they have never truly joined.

Facts have proved that for a group of masters in the Venerable Realm, it is simply not feasible to win them over by giving them favors in exchange for their loyalty.

The only thing that can really tie them down is tangible benefits.

The young man in black suddenly turned around: "Aren't you going to run? Are you going to stay and be his cannon fodder?"

"But……"

The man hesitated to speak, but was interrupted by others around him: "Brother Jiang Zhi has always been very loyal. We are all convinced, but we just ran away. It seems a bit of a loss, right?"

The others all agreed: "Yes, yes, we have been slaves to those skeletons for so many years, we must collect some interest at least, right?"

"Yes, let's grab a batch of holy bones before we leave, otherwise it will be a big loss!"

Jiang Zhi glanced at them: "You have all seen Lin Yi's strength. If we wait for him to react, can we still escape?"

Everyone was speechless.

There were quite a few of them, and each one of them was a master of the Venerable Realm, but against Lin Yi, they really had no confidence.

Not to mention defeating Lin Yi, even if he tried his best to escape, he didn't even have the slightest confidence in whether he could escape.

"Keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood. Don't let the small things cost you the big things. Let's go."

Jiang Zhi subconsciously looked back at the battlefield where Lin Yi was just now, and turned to urge everyone: "Hurry up, it will be too late if it is later."

"Sorry, it's too late."

A voice suddenly broke in.

Jiang Zhi and everyone looked at the sound and couldn't help but collectively lose their countenance.

The person standing in front of them was Su Zhang, the head of the Zongheng family.

Just after the fight between Lin Yi and Xiao Maitreya, Su Zhang consciously stayed away from the battlefield. It knew very well that its value was not on the battlefield. With its little strength, for a duel of Lin Yi and Xiao Maitreya's level, even Not even qualified to be cannon fodder.

Its greatest value lies in stabilizing the Skeleton Saints and the rear of the Hundred Saints City.

Just like now, stopping Jiang Zhi, who is leading people to defect, is its top priority.

Although Jiang Zhi and others were a little panicked, they were obviously relieved after seeing clearly that it was Su Zhang.

Su Zhang and Xiang Yusheng were Lin Yi's right-hand men in controlling the Hundred Saints City, but compared to Su Zhang, Xiang Yusheng was obviously a greater deterrent to them.

On the one hand, Xiang Yusheng had saved their lives after all. At least on the scene, they were more or less embarrassed.

On the other hand, Xiang Yusheng's spatial ability was so unpredictable that they had almost no effective means to counter it. If Xiang Yusheng directly pulled Lin Yi over, it would be even more impossible.

In comparison, Su Zhang was far from comparable to Xiang Yusheng in terms of personal strength and influence among them.

In fact, because of their previous experience as slaves, Jiang Zhi and others were more likely to share the same hatred when faced with Su Zhang's skeletal image!

"Get out of my way or I'll kill you."

Jiang Zhi winked at everyone, and everyone immediately formed a tacit understanding to surround Su Zhang.

Su Zhang said in a deep voice: "No matter what, the city lord has saved your lives and spared you several times. Is this how you repay the city lord?"

"Bullshit life-saving grace! We can survive until now only because of ourselves, and it has nothing to do with Lin Yi!"

Everyone immediately yelled and cursed.

Jiang Zhi stretched out his hand to stop us and responded coldly: "Not to mention that Lin Yi's so-called life-saving grace to us was just incidental. He never really paid attention to us. Even if this life-saving grace is given to us, Admit it, then it won’t force us to be his dogs, right?”

"Brother Jiang Zhi, what else is there to say to this skeleton? Just kill it and be done with it. It will also be considered as revenge for being a slave to them before!"

The crowd was excited and couldn't wait to attack Su Zhang.

As a result, everyone was stunned when they saw the ultimate soldier suddenly appear behind Su Zhang.

The scene that had been full of excitement just now suddenly became quiet.

They can handle Su Zhang at will, but if it's the ultimate military leader, that's not something they can handle.

Jiang Zhi and everyone suddenly broke out in cold sweat and felt chilly.

Regardless of the number of them, there were a hundred or ten people present at the scene, including masters like the Yellow-ranked Dzogchen Venerable. But even if they were tied together, they might not be enough to torture the ultimate soldier.

Once the ultimate soldier goes berserk, it is unimaginable how many of them will be able to escape alive.

The ultimate soldier sneered: "Keep talking, why aren't you talking? Do you think I'm not good-looking, so you don't want to talk to me?"

"..."

Jiang Zhi and everyone were speechless.

In the end, Jiang Zhi gritted his teeth and said, "Don't be afraid, everyone. There are so many of us. No matter how strong it is, it can't kill us all. If we try hard, we won't have no chance at all!"

This doesn't sound very encouraging.

However, with his appeal among everyone, it is not at all effective.

At least, now that everyone has come to this step, there is no turning back. Even if they can't defeat the ultimate warrior master, the boundary of the Bone Burial Ground is already close at hand. As long as they leave the scope of the Bone Burial Ground, it will be another kind of Result.

The Ultimate Soldier Master is strong and powerful, but if he really breaks into the traditional territory of the land of God and attracts the attention of local experts, or even attracts the attention of the god-level academy alliance, even the Ultimate Soldier Master will only be able to obediently give him the title!

But just when Jiang Zhi was about to lead his men to break out of the encirclement, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of them.

In an instant, the scene became extremely depressing again.

The person coming was none other than Lin Yi.

Lin Yi looked at them calmly: "You're just leaving like that, and you don't even want to say hello to me?"

Everyone in Jiang Zhi acted as if they were facing a formidable enemy, and many of them had expressions of horror that could not be concealed on their faces.

An ultimate military leader is enough for them to have a good drink. Now with the addition of Lin Yi, a more powerful leader, they can only feel despair even if the border is close at hand.

Once you take action, you can tell with your toes that these people are really not enough for Lin Yi and Ultimate Soldier.

Jiang Zhi glanced at Su Zhang next to him and couldn't help gritting his teeth.

If it weren't for this troublesome skeleton, they would have escaped and regained their freedom. How could such a twists and turns have happened!
