Beauty and the Bodyguard

If this kind of thing spreads out, it will shock a lot of people's jaws. No matter how high the talent potential is, no matter how good the elixir is to assist, one can only go up one step at a time, upgrading to two levels in a row. Not to mention it is unique, it is also rare in the world.

To sum up, the reason for Lin Yi's unknown performance is that in addition to the powerful effects of the four top-grade foundation-building pills, the more important thing is his usual diligent practice.

Feeling the almost qualitative change of Qi all over his body, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel that with his current strength, if he faced a master like Zheng Tianjie again, he should have the strength to fight head-on.

Zheng Tianjie is a master of the Golden Core stage. Even if he is only in the early stage of the Golden Core, he is completely superior to all the masters of the Foundation Establishment stage.

Foundation-building and golden elixir are two completely different concepts. According to the world's knowledge, no matter how powerful the foundation-building Dzogchen is, there is no way it can be a head-on opponent in the golden elixir stage, even if this person is an alchemist.

In the Great Perfection of Heaven Level and the early stage of Foundation Establishment, there may be a difference in strength. After all, going from Heaven Level to Foundation Establishment is a threshold of transformation. If you don't adapt, it is possible to be defeated, but the Golden Pill is different.

However, Lin Yi didn't feel this way at all. It would be fine if he had never fought against a master of Jindan, but now he truly felt that with his current strength, he would not lose in a head-on battle with Zheng Tianjie!

Facing the foundation building stage, Lin Yi had a strong hunch as to whether the golden elixir stage was really the myth of invincibility. Maybe he would be able to verify it with his own hands soon.

After Lin Yi, Shangguan Laner and Ning Xuefei also broke through one after another. Shangguan Laner had already broken through to the middle stage of Foundation Building under the guidance of the Foundation Building Pill and the personal guidance of Shangguan Tianhua. Now, He even advanced to another level and became a peak master in the middle stage of foundation building.

As for Ning Xuefei, although this West Island princess also dislikes practicing, her strength and progress are not inferior to Shangguan Lan'er, and she is now at the peak of the middle stage of foundation building.

From alchemy to breakthrough, the three of them stayed in the room for a whole day and night without leaving the door. When they finally opened the door and walked out one after another, the five were ordered to protect the two elders. The young lady's core disciples of Chongtian Pavilion looked at Lin Yi with different eyes at this moment.

One drags two, there are still two princesses, this boy is too awesome, if he is good at picking up girls, even if he does nothing else in this life, his future will be limitless...

Faced with the weird and profound looks from everyone, Shangguan Laner and Ning Xuefei didn't notice anything strange at all. Only Lin Yi grinned in embarrassment. Without paying attention, he seemed to have done something to make these people think. What a Lianlian thing!

With the growth of strength, the originally unfathomable Golden Core masters are no longer so unattainable in Lin Yi's eyes. These masters also have joys, sorrows, and a burning heart of gossip. They can only place hope. They shouldn't spread the word about this, otherwise Lin Yike will be pushed to the forefront again.

Nothing happened. After Lin Yi went out, he took the two girls to the Hong Chamber of Commerce to see the news about the raw mushrooms.

However, as soon as he walked into the door of Hong's Chamber of Commerce, the familiar figure inside made Lin Yi pause in his steps, and then he said with sincere joy: "Mr. Hong, when did you come back?"

Seeing Lin Yi, Hong Zhong was also overjoyed. He quickly came up to him, looked him up and down, and said in wonder: "Young Master Lin, after so many days apart, you have changed again! Your strength and speed of improvement are really impressive to me. It’s an eye-opener, so congratulations!”

"Grandpa Hong, you only saw junior brother, didn't you see us?" Shangguan Lan'er came up behind him and said with a smile.

"Haha, Xiao Lan'er, Grandpa Hong, no matter who I miss, I can't miss you, little girl!" Hong Zhong chuckled, then turned to look at Ning Xuefei, cupped his hands and saluted, "This must be Xi Miss Daoning, I have admired you for a long time, come on, please come upstairs!"

"Just call me Feifei, Grandpa Hong." Ning Xuefei said with a sweet smile.

After inviting the three of them to the private room upstairs, Hong Zhong immediately asked people to serve wine and banquet. After exchanging pleasantries and reminiscing about the past, he personally apologized to Ning Xuefei and Shangguan Laner on behalf of the Hong Chamber of Commerce. However, the two women were completely indifferent to this. Keep in mind that even if they hold grudges, they will settle the scores with Si Tsunami and not the Hong Chamber of Commerce.

Then, Hong Zhong told Lin Yi the reason for returning to Beidao this time: "To be honest, Young Master Lin, when I came back to Beidao this time, I took the initiative to invite you back. If such a big scandal as Si Tsunami happened, I could only come back." After cleaning up this mess, I now serve as the vice president and the treasurer of the North Island branch."

Lin Yi was slightly startled when he heard this, and asked doubtfully: "With your connections in Beidao, Mr. Hong, although you are indeed the best candidate to deal with the aftermath, why does it sound like a downgrade to hold the position of branch manager at the same time?"

Normally, if Hong Zhong is really just here to help wipe his butt, he only needs to come forward and say a few nice words, and there is no need to serve as the branch manager at all. Staying in Beidao for a long time and staying away from the core of power of Zhongdao headquarters is very difficult for him as the vice president. That's not a good thing.

Lin Yi's intuition told him that Hong Zhong's life in Zhongdao must not be very satisfactory.

As expected, Hong Zhong sighed and said: "Young Master Lin doesn't know something. Although I was promoted to vice president due to merit and was considered a high-level official at the headquarters of the Hong Chamber of Commerce, I have been operating in Beidao for a long time and have a strong foundation there. It’s not very deep, so I went to Zhongdao recently, and as soon as I got there, I was ostracized by a group of people headed by the executive vice president.”

Lin Yi's eyelids twitched slightly. This situation really caught people off guard. A strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local leader, not to mention that the other party's position and power are still above Hong Zhong, so he is a real local leader.

Hong Zhong took a sip of wine and continued: "I have a vacant position but no real power. I can't do anything at all. I have been sidelined by them. If I continue to stay, I will become a complete idler. So I can only take advantage of this situation." I’ll go back to Beidao first when I get the chance, so I can at least be a little more independent.”

"It seems that there is also a world within the Hong Chamber of Commerce!" Lin Yi sighed, and then comforted: "It's okay, let's take it step by step. Mr. Hong, please talk to me carefully when you have time, and I'll see if I can help. ."

"Okay, but the protagonists today are the two eldest ladies. Let's not talk about these unpleasant things. Come on, let's have a drink first!" Hong Zhong said with a forced smile.
