Beauty and the Bodyguard

Among the giants on the Supreme Board of Directors, which one is not an ambitious tycoon, and which one is willing to be the watchdog of the Inner Court for the rest of his life?

"Of course they are afraid."

Gu Jiumu shook his head and said: "They are not only afraid that the Supreme Board of Directors will usurp the throne, but they are also afraid that the major temples of the gods will rise again. When the time comes, there will be another war between humans and gods, and there will be no such strategic and deep inner court of the Land of Gods. , it’s just a castle in the air, with no chance of winning at all.”

"So to this day, the Inner Court is still trying to find ways and using various means to strengthen control."

"The list of permissions of the giant you see is just one of them."

Lin Yi suddenly realized.

Using the priceless treasures in the list, you can not only win over the giants from all parties, but once someone purchases these items, the Inner Palace can use them to conduct deeper surveillance and even control the giants from all parties.

Lin Yi frowned and asked: "How strong is the Inner Royal Court?"

"Except for Kong Shenglin, no one here has actually met those powerful kings. As for their strength, I can only say that they are very strong. I don't know how strong they are."

Gu Jiumu changed the subject and said: "But there is one thing that can give us a glimpse into the situation and get some clues."

Lin Yi was curious: "What's going on?"

"A Xuan-level venerable cannot be challenged beyond his level. You should be very clear about this man-made order, but do you know how it came about?"

Gu Jiumu explained quietly: "That is a birthday gift specially set by a big shot in the inner court to celebrate the birthday of his son who has just turned one month old."

Lin Yi was speechless on the spot.

People have to die when compared with others, and goods have to be thrown away when comparing goods. My understanding of this sentence is more profound.

Lin Yi looked at the wind and waves on the sea and said: "The disparity in strength is so great that if one day the Supreme Oracle fails to work and those powerful men with royal power are released from the inner court, it will be great fun."

In the eyes of others, the Supreme Oracle is as unbreakable as the rules of the world. Regardless of using these three words, it is impossible to appear.

But in Lin Yi's eyes, this kind of thing is not only possible, but not just once or twice. It will definitely get worse one day in the future!

"That day will definitely come."

Gu Jiumu nodded. He was not a cultivator of the ancient gods, but as the omniscient god walking in the world, he naturally knew much more than others.

"When that time comes, the Kingdom of God on land will definitely be in chaos again."

"It's true that the Supreme Board of Directors is a watchdog, but even dogs have uncontrollable ambitions, and sometimes they break off the leash and show their teeth at their masters."

"But when the royal power comes out of the cage, the biggest reaction will definitely be the divine power."

"The war between humans and gods has begun again. This time, maybe even the gods will end up personally."

Gu Jiumu's tone was calm, but the scene he described in these few words made even Lin Yi feel horrified.

Lin Yi pondered for a moment and asked: "When the time comes, will the Inner Court be our enemy?"

“The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”

Gu Jiumu glanced at him, shook his head lightly and said, "It's okay to say this. Whoever believes it is stupid."

"Since we have chosen this path, we are destined to be enemies of the whole world. The gods are our enemies, and so is the Inner King's Court. It's just a matter of priorities."

Lin Yi nodded slightly, deeply convinced.

Looking back at the time hourglass, Gu Jiumu returned to the topic and said: "The Inner King's Court has a strong desire to control. Every thing they give, in addition to the clear price on the face, there is a greater price hidden behind it."

Lin Yi had a headache: "So, wouldn't this thing become a hot potato?"

The time hourglass was of great significance to him. If he gave up because of the surveillance of the inner court, it would be a bit of a waste.

No matter how you think about it, you are unwilling to do so.

Gu Jiumu smiled and said: "That's not necessarily true. Don't you still have that lord? The Inner Court's methods are brilliant, but compared with that one, they are still far behind."

Of course he was referring to Jiang Xiaoshang.

Lin Yi smiled when he heard this: "That's true, there is such a first-class tool, it's useless if you don't use it."

Based on his current relationship with Jiang Xiaoshang, there is really nothing to be polite about.

But even if Jiang Xiaoshang could help him solve the hidden danger, Lin Yi was still hesitant about whether to use the time hourglass immediately.

If the effect of the time hourglass is as powerful as it is described, then once used, the entire new world will inevitably undergo earth-shaking changes.

By then, if nothing else, Lin Yi's own level of strength will surely rise, and promotion to the Xuan level is a certainty.

In that case, it would not be so convenient for him to pluck up the luck wool of artificial order.

Gu Jiumu saw his hesitation and said proactively: "Your luck should have reached the upper limit now, right?"

"Yeah, a hundred."

Lin Yi made no secret of this, and there was no need to hide it.

Although so far, he does not fully trust Gu Jiumu, but as allies with the same stance, and after the conversation just now, they have established a preliminary relationship of trust.

When Gu Jiumu heard this answer, he glanced at him in surprise: "It's much faster than I thought."

Lin Yi took advantage of the situation and asked: "What's the upper limit of luck? Is it possible that everyone's upper limit of luck is one hundred?"

"That's not true."

Gu Jiumu explained unhurriedly: "As for the nature of luck, there are two more recognized opinions. One is the blessing from heaven, and the other is the influence that an individual can exert on the entire world. Which one do you think it is?"

Lin Yi thought for a while: "The second option."

The first one is more in line with the simple cognition of the general public, and it does make sense to a certain extent, but based on his personal experience, the second one is more convincing.

Including the man-made order he used to gather luck, the essence of it was because he jumped over the rank and killed the Xuan-level venerable, forcibly breaking the order, which had a profound impact on the world.

Luck is not illusory, but something that can be truly grasped by people.

This has been verified in various ways recently.

Gu Jiumu nodded: "If we follow the second statement, the greater the impact a person can have on the world, the more luck he will have."

"Judging from this perspective, the main factors that determine a person's luck are power, status, and background."

"Of course, the most important thing is strength."

Lin Yi thought thoughtfully and followed the words: "According to this, the level of strength is the most critical factor that determines the limit of luck. One hundred lucks is the limit of the Yellow-level Dzogchen Master?"
