Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Alright, I\'ll finish my homework as soon as possible and come to find you. Don\'t run around! This is little Senior sister\'s order, you must obey it!" Shangguan LAN \'er pointed at Lin Yi, and only returned to her room unwillingly after he agreed.

Lin Yi smiled and shook his head. After Shangguan LAN \'er left, he took out Xiao Yan\'s communication Pearl from his storage bag, wrapped it in his Qi and sent it into the sea below the warship.

It was different from LAN Guzha\'s communication bead. Xiao Yan\'s bead used spiritual sense to communicate with Lin Yi directly. It was obviously of a higher level.

"Brother Lin, you finally remembered to contact me! I thought you\'d look for me when you heard that the spirit beast clan and central had fallen out. " Xiao Yi greeted Lin Yi with a bright smile, seemingly in a good mood.

"Brother Xiao, I have to thank you for your notice. Although they have fallen out on the surface, they may still keep in touch behind the scenes, so you can\'t be careless. If you have the opportunity, you should pay more attention to the movements of these two families." Lin Yi thanked him and casually reminded Xiao Yi of the possibility of a double-crossing.

"We\'ve been through life and death together, what\'s there to thank! However, your reminder is very reasonable. Whether it\'s the spirit beast clan or that central, they\'re both sinister and cunning. Although I don\'t know why they turned against us, they might be lying to us. We really have to be careful! Don\'t worry, I\'ll take note of this. " Xiao Yi was filled with hatred towards the two houses, and he agreed without Lin Yi saying anything.

"There\'s also the cage Sea region. If it\'s convenient for you, you\'d better take over it. Don\'t leave any opportunities for them. The resources there may not be of any use to your sea beast clan, but they are very important to their two clans." Lin Yi never believed that central would follow an agreement so obediently, so he didn\'t mind doing as much as he could.

"No problem. It\'s said that the development of the caged Sea area has stopped. I\'ll have my little ones go there to take a look, so as to avoid the central region and the spirit beast clan from deceiving the world." Xiao Yi trusted Lin Yi quite a lot, and he agreed to whatever Lin Yi said without hesitation.

"There\'s nothing else to pay attention to other than these. How\'s LAN Guzha?" Lin Yi put aside the spirit beast clan and central and asked about LAN Guzha\'s condition.

"LAN Guzha has already begun to accept the inheritance and awaken. Although the process was a little tortuous, the result is good. You don\'t have to worry about him. The next time you meet, he will definitely make you look at him in a different light!" Xiao Yan couldn\'t help but pause at the mention of LAN Guzha, making Lin Yi suspicious.

"How is the process tortuous? Are you in trouble?" LAN Guzha was Lin Yi\'s brother. If there was any danger, he\'d rather LAN Guzha not receive the inheritance.

"There are some small problems. You know that I\'m not the only Prince of the sea beast clan, so when I bring LAN Guzha back, I\'ll always be viewed with hostility by other brothers with ulterior motives. Fortunately, LAN Guzha also has our royal bloodline, so it\'s useless no matter how much they object. Don\'t worry, brother Lin. With me around, LAN Guzha will definitely be fine. If he\'s missing even a strand of hair when he returns to your side, you can come to me for revenge!" Xiao Yi explained the problems they\'d encountered, promising Lin Yi that he didn\'t need to worry.

"So it\'s like this, then I\'ll leave it to brother Xiao! If there\'s anything you need my help with, please contact me at any time. " Lin Yi remembered that it wasn\'t that easy for Xiao Yan to contact him-the communication bead would cut off all contact with Xiao Yan once it left the water, and it was inconvenient without real-time communication.

"Alright, I won\'t hold back if there\'s anything I need. Brother Lin, be prepared to help me at any time." Xiao Yan laughed out loud as he made a joke. Lin Yi really couldn\'t help much with the affairs of the sea beast clan. On the other hand, LAN Guzha would be Xiao Yan\'s strongest helper once his strength made a qualitative leap.

This was also one of Xiao Yan\'s main reasons for bringing LAN Guzha back. As long as LAN Guzha could display a strength similar to Lin Yi \'s, Xiao Yan would be able to stand out among the princes.

"No problem, I\'ll be waiting for brother Xiao\'s call!" Lin Yi replied with a smile. He paused for a moment before continuing,"By the way, I wanted to ask you just now, does this communication bead you gave me have any other functions?"

"Other functions? This kind of aura is very difficult for you humans and spirit beasts to detect, but ordinary sea beasts can sense it from very far away. Out of respect for the royal family, they won\'t easily come close, so you won\'t be attacked by sea beasts when you sail in the sea with my communication Pearl. " Xiao Yi thought about it and found a pretty good function, but it didn\'t mean much to him, so he didn\'t mention it to Lin Yi.

​ Lin Yi suddenly understood-no wonder he didn\'t see any sea beasts along the way. Other than that, this communication bead could also be used as a location. He was wondering how the sea beast that sent him the message knew he was on the back of the wing, but it felt Xiao Xiao\'s aura and came to block the way.

Lin Yi didn\'t really care about this-if he didn\'t want the sea beasts to find him, he could just move the communication Pearl from the storage bag to the Jade space. The storage bag couldn\'t block Xiao Yan\'s aura, but the Jade space didn \'t.

Even if Xiao Yan were to enter the Jade space himself, the outside world would not be able to sense anything, much less the remnant aura of a mere communication Pearl.

"Brother Xiao, you\'ve really given me something good. With your communication bead, the journey will be much easier and faster." Lin Yi sighed after thinking about it.

As the honorary vice-captain of the ancient warship, Lin Yi knew how much influence the sea beasts had on the ship\'s navigation.
