Beauty and the Bodyguard

Although Lin Yi was also the third senior brother in charge of the outer sect at the beginning, this position was only for new disciples of the outer sect, and he was also not qualified to hang out in the inner sect.

"I'm sorry, I wanted to find you too, but when I first started, I was taught the techniques and martial arts of the Jianchun Sect, and then was asked to practice in seclusion."

Wu Yucao was still in a low mood, and smiled apologetically: "Later, in the first assessment, Hei Yehua and I failed. At that time, I wanted to come to you, and I didn't know that you had gone on a mission."

Lin Yi suddenly realized that when Wu Yucao came to find them, it must have been the first time he went to the Guiyin Mountains, and he just missed it!

But Lin Yi couldn't understand why Wu Yucao failed the examination?

In terms of strength, after the fusion of Wu Yucao and Wu Yuhua, they are definitely the top ones among the new disciples!

Not to mention talent, it was already proven during the entry test that she is a real genius!

If not, how could he be promoted to the inner sect under special circumstances?

It's okay to say that Hei Yehua failed. After all, her test scores were quite average, and Wu Yucao couldn't be justified in doing the same!

"Sister Wu, are the inner sect's martial arts skills very advanced? Why did you fail to pass the test after practicing in seclusion?"

Lin Yi felt that there must be an inside story, so he asked straight to the point: "Is there any reason behind it? We are all our own people, so there is no need to worry!"

"Well...there are indeed some reasons! Black Wild Flowers and I first entered the inner sect with no backing and no deep background, so we had almost no training resources! Even the residence we were allocated was the lowest among the inner sects."

Wu Yucao hesitated. Originally, she didn't want to tell Lin Yi these things, but now Lin Yi is the third senior brother in charge of the inner sect, so even if she didn't tell, Lin Yi would know it if he went to investigate on his own!

"Hei Yehua and I don't want to betray our appearance, so practicing in seclusion is very difficult, and we are interrupted from time to time, just for trivial reasons."

Lin Yi was secretly angry. He didn't expect Wu Yucao and Hei Yehua to be in such a situation at the inner gate!

In addition, Wu Yucao had the aura of genius that he had during the entry test, so it was even more natural that he would be targeted!

She has no background, no backing, good talent, and beautiful appearance but refuses to please those above her. It would be strange not to target her to death!

Are you still waiting for her to grow up and step on them?

There is another point, although Wu Yucao didn't say it, Lin Yi can imagine it.

When the two of them were practicing, no one would give them kind guidance, and they would even mislead them with wrong explanations!

In this case, it would really take a miracle to pass the assessment!

Even during the assessment, Wu Yucao and Black Wild Flower will probably be targeted by some people!

Lin Yi wanted to understand these key points, and a flash of coldness suddenly flashed in his eyes!

Anyone who dares to treat me like this, no matter who is in the inner sect, will definitely repay him twice as much if he has the opportunity in the future!

"After I failed the assessment, I couldn't find you. I was supposed to continue practicing in seclusion and prepare for a make-up exam, but the points in my hand were almost used up, so I had to take on a simple task first!"

Wu Yucao felt a little ashamed. She thought that by entering the inner sect, she could become Lin Yi's helper better, but she didn't expect that she would end up in such a miserable state!

It's really better to stay in the outer sect with Lin Yi, maybe the strength will be greatly improved.

What's more important is that if she stays in the outer gate, she can also join in the mission in the Guiyin Mountains. Maybe... there will be a chance to save Chen Zhisheng!

Thinking of the tragic death of Chen Zhisheng, Wu Yucao felt a little sad again, shook his head briefly and continued: "Black Wild Flower is in a similar situation to me. After failing the assessment, we almost lost our points. We have to take on the mission to replenish it. I guess he hasn't come back yet. Otherwise, Zhongda, if your matter was such a big deal, she would definitely come over and have a look."

"Sister Wu, don't worry, something like this won't happen again! You don't have to worry about points. As you know, I just got a huge amount of points and I can't spend them no matter what. Can you help me?" Let me use it together!”

Lin Yi pretended to be relaxed, but in his heart he was thinking about asking Zhang Yiming to find out who in the inner sect was targeting Wu Yucao and Hei Yehua!

Zhang Xiaopang's ability to find out information is quite good. I heard from him that there is a fellow in the inner gate who can talk to him!

This little fat guy is quite talented in collecting intelligence information, and he enjoys it. Simply put, he is a gossip in the secular world!

Although asking Wu Yucao was simpler and more direct, Lin Yi guessed that Wu Yucao didn't want to get himself into trouble, so he might not tell the truth!

Rather than doing this, it would be better not to embarrass her.

"Zhongda, do you want to support us?"

Ling Hanxue felt that the atmosphere was a bit solemn, and she blinked deliberately narrowly, hoping to make everyone feel a little more cheerful.

Wu Yucao blushed slightly when she heard this, glanced at Lin Yi secretly, and immediately lowered her head... It would be good if he really let him raise her...

Lin Yi pretended not to hear the ambiguity and smiled calmly: "It's my honor to be able to raise Sister Wu and Sister Xue. Just don't dislike it!"

"Of course I don't dislike it. Some people may be eager to do so..."

Ling Hanxue smiled and winked at Wu Yucao again, making Wu Yucao's face turn redder.

Sad things will eventually pass. Instead of wallowing in them, it is better to move forward happily with the memory of the deceased.

Ling Hanxue and Wu Yucao both knew that the impact of Chen Zhisheng's death still existed, and the sadness caused by it would not disappear easily!

Because of this, they had to try their best to appear happy so as not to worry Lin Yi!

A few people chatted and laughed, and the atmosphere returned to normal, no longer as heavy as before.

Lin Yi took advantage of the situation and said: "Sister Wu, you have to take the make-up exam but go on a mission. You should fall behind a lot in your cultivation, right?"

"Well... there is indeed no progress. I'm afraid I may not be able to pass the make-up exam."

Wu Yucao nodded slightly and said with some embarrassment: "Zhongda, I disappoint you. I'm afraid my talent is not as good as the test!"

"How is it possible? Sister Wu's talent is undoubted. She must have encountered some bottlenecks in practice. This is normal."

Lin Yi smiled and waved, then introduced himself: "If Sister Wu doesn't mind it, how about asking my little brother to help you?"

"Yes, yes! Zhongda is so amazing! I have read a lot of books in the library. I can analyze and understand all kinds of cultivation techniques and martial arts. With his guidance, we have all made rapid progress in cultivation, and are much better than before! Especially! It’s Chen…”

When Ling Hanxue mentioned the matter of cultivation, she immediately became cheerful and pulled Wu Yucao to praise her like a salesman in the secular world. The person being praised, Lin Yi, felt a little embarrassed.
