Beauty and the Bodyguard

The first three had already brought great pressure to everyone. Now there was another one. Even if everyone was very proud, they had already noticed that the balance was gradually starting to lose balance.

Once there were more and more bloody ancient apes, everyone present would become their prey.

The most annoying thing was that at the beginning, under the instigation of Li Hongshou, the three ancestors of the Qi Wang Mansion had forcibly isolated the ancestral hall from the outside world in order to ensure that Lin Yi was killed.

Within the limited time limit, even they themselves could not break it.

In other words, they built an iron cage for themselves and threw away the key. As a result, Li Hongshou went crazy and let the bloody ancient ape in.

If any link in this series of operations was missing, the situation today would not be so difficult.

Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh: "When it comes to cheating people, you are still the best."

"..."

The tall old man was about to collapse, and said with a tangled expression: "Now is not the time to talk about this, right? The most urgent task now is for everyone to work together to overcome the difficulties. As for the various grievances before, can we put them off until later?"

At this time, the nearest blood-red ancient ape was still three steps away from him, but in his perception, the fangs in the other party's mouth were about to pierce his aorta.

This kind of pressure is really not something a person can bear.

He didn't cry in public at this time, which was considered to be a good expression management.

Lin Yi looked at Zhang Tailing: "Master Zhang, how about you close the space gate first? It's okay if there are not many of these ancient apes now, but once the number increases, it will be really out of control."

Zhang Tailing immediately said to Li Hongshou: "Hong'er, give the bronze mirror to your master, we really can't go on like this."

Li Hongshou hurriedly hugged the bronze mirror tightly in his arms, and said with a ferocious look: "Master, don't force me, I just want them to be buried with my junior brother, no one can persuade me today!"

"Fool!"

Zhang Tailing sighed.

He waved his hand casually, and the next second Li Hongshou suddenly exclaimed, and the bronze mirror in his arms broke free and fell into Zhang Tailing's hands.

Without waiting for Li Hongshou to come up and grab it, Zhang Tailing immediately reached out and wiped the blood on it.

In addition to special props, the space gate connecting to the outside world must also use fresh human blood as a primer.

Under normal circumstances, as long as there is no blood, the space gate will fail.

However, the strange thing is that the space gate above his head not only showed no signs of closing, but also emitted a creepy dim light.

The next second, the dim light enveloped Li Hongshou's body.

Li Hongshou's body shook, and then blood gushed out from his seven orifices, spontaneously smearing on the bronze mirror, maintaining the continued operation of the space gate.

Zhang Tailing frowned and hurriedly protected Li Hongshou.

When Li Hongshou stabilized, he went back to wipe the blood on the bronze mirror, and the same scene happened again!

With the strength of the peak of the early stage of the heavenly rank, he was completely unable to stop it and was helpless.

The scene fell into silence.

In this situation, either the space gate continued to operate, or Zhang Tailing wiped it over and over again, and Li Hongshou's blood was completely drained.

Standing in the position of the third ancestor of the Qi Wangfu, he would naturally choose the latter without hesitation.

But for Zhang Tailing, this is a dilemma.

He had no relatives or friends in his life, and had only accepted two apprentices. After the young apprentice died, Li Hongshou was his last concern.

If not, with his carefree nature, he would not have been involved at all.

If any space gate continued to operate, including himself and Li Hongshou, everyone present would have died, and then perhaps the entire inner royal court would face a catastrophe.

In comparison, the latter only made Li Hongshou die earlier.

It was clear at a glance how to choose between the two.

But for Zhang Tailing, this was tantamount to asking him to kill his last apprentice with his own hands!

Li Hongshou laughed crazily: "It's useless! You all have to die today! You all have to be buried with my little apprentice brother!"

Zhang Tailing's face was as dark as water.

Lin Yi watched this scene quietly, and he was also a little curious about what choice this Taoist would make in the end.

As a result, Zhang Tailing suddenly started to attack.

However, the target of his attack was not Li Hongshou, but the bronze mirror.

The idea was clear. Since it was impossible to prevent the bronze mirror from sucking Li Hongshou's blood, then destroy the bronze mirror.

The bronze mirror was the core carrier of the space gate. Once the bronze mirror was destroyed, the space gate would naturally disappear.

As a result, this simple idea was rejected the next second.

The bronze mirror did not move at all.

The whole audience was shocked.

Everyone could clearly sense the power of Zhang Tailing's move, which was enough to kill any early Heavenly Stage Venerable in seconds. In order to break the situation this time, Zhang Tailing had obviously tried his best.

As a result, it was a lonely fight.

Li Hongshou laughed wildly when he saw this: "God's will! This is God's will! This is my junior brother helping me!"

Zhang Tailing did not believe in evil, and immediately used all his strength to blast the bronze mirror again.

As a result, the bronze mirror was still intact.

This was completely embarrassing.

Seeing this, the Third Ancestor of the Prince of Qi's Mansion hurriedly said: "Master Zhang, we were indeed unaware of the death of your beloved disciple, and we are extremely saddened."

"We are willing to pay the price and give compensation."

"But today's incident not only concerns the life and death of my Prince of Qi's Mansion, but also the safety of the people of the entire inner court."

"I hope you will consider the overall situation and put the people of the world first!"

Lin Yi shook his head speechlessly after hearing this.

The three ancestors of the Qi Wang Mansion have really stayed in the ancestral hall for too long and don't know how to communicate with living people.

As expected, Zhang Tailing's face immediately turned cold.

"Are you three morally blackmailing me and forcing me to kill my last disciple with my own hands?"

The three ancestors of the Qi Wang Mansion choked immediately.

They really meant that, but they couldn't say that.

While everyone was talking, the scarlet ancient ape closest to the tall old man took another step closer, and its scarlet fangs almost fell on the tall old man's neck.

The tall old man was really scared this time.

An existence at his level must be a person with great perseverance and great opportunities. Normally, let alone death, even if he was cut into pieces, he might not blink his eyebrows.

But it was precisely this kind of fear that was so close but difficult to perceive that made him unable to resist.

At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed towards Li Hongshou.

It was Qi Zhuiyun who had been silent for a long time!

Originally, under Zhang Tailing's nose, he would never have had such an opportunity, but Zhang Tailing lost his mind just now and couldn't pay attention to him for a while, which gave him an opportunity to take advantage of.

Lin Yi couldn't help but look at Zhang Tailing more.

Did he really not notice it, or did he deliberately not notice it?

The former possibility cannot be said to be completely impossible, but from Lin Yi's perspective, the latter possibility is obviously greater.
