Beauty and the Bodyguard

Lu sanjian said as he calculated.

There were more than two thousand of them, and Lin Yi would be guaranteed first place with one thousand and five hundred. He should be able to fight for second place with the remaining six or seven hundred!

As expected, following Lin Yi was the right path-he wouldn\'t have the courage to go ten kilometers into the center if he were alone.

"Is there a lot of Poison Heart grass here? I don\'t think it\'s enough, right? We\'ll go deeper in a while, and we won\'t even see a darkness magical beast. It\'s definitely not an important place. "

As Lin Yi spoke, he directed Tang Yungui, Diao Longtian, and the others to collect the poison Heart grass. The people of Qingshan Alchemy School also followed his instructions and worked quickly in silence.

The poison Heart grass was highly toxic when picked, so he had to be careful. More than two thousand stalks of Poison Heart grass could not be collected in a short time.

"Dean Lu, the past is the past, and the present is the present. Our past experience may not be applicable now. We should prepare for a rainy day and collect more medicinal herbs after going deeper. Not only will we be able to stabilize our advantage in the second round, but we can also expand our advantage. We might not even need to hold the third round and win!"

Lin Yi said it casually, mainly because he didn\'t find any traces of Dark Demon beasts nearby. Since it was still a safe area, why not collect more herbs?

lu sanjian didn\'t have lin yi\'s strong spirit sense. in a place like the forest of illusions where spirit sense was suppressed, the range of his detection was very small.

so lu sanjian wasn\'t confident, but since lin yi had decided, he had to risk his life!

after half an incense\'s time, the poison heart grass was finally cleaned up. lin yi led the group deeper in.

this time, he didn\'t go far before 30 dark beasts appeared at the edge of his spirit sense!

lin yi raised a hand to stop the line.

the 30 or so darkness demon beasts were not from the same race, and they were all extremely powerful. almost all of them were in the early stage of the sea rift realm, and a few of them had not reached the sea rift realm yet, but they were all in the consummate stage of the earth splitting realm.

if it was any other time, these darkness magical beasts would definitely have their own territories, and it was impossible for them to mix together. thus, something must have happened there, and these darkness magical beasts were organized into a team!

"Dean Sima, what\'s wrong? What\'s wrong?"

Lu sanjian was extremely nervous and was on high alert as he asked Lin Yi in a low voice.

Lin Yi wasn\'t sure what was going on over there-all thirty of them had their backs to him.

He didn\'t know what the situation was in front of these darkness magical beasts. The distance was too far, and even the plant attribute couldn\'t play any role.

"I can feel that there are many powerful darkness magical beasts gathering there. We didn\'t encounter any darkness magical beasts on our way here, so I\'m afraid it\'s not that we were lucky, but that all the darkness magical beasts from those places have gathered there."

Lin Yi explained softly,"the dark beasts are very strong. Our team is definitely no match for them. So I hope you can take them out first, Dean Lu. On the way, collect all the herbs that you haven\'t collected. I\'ll go and check it out."

This wasn\'t that he liked to meddle in other people\'s business, but that he knew himself and his enemy, and he would never lose a battle!

Only by knowing the reason could he find the right solution!

It was definitely safe to return the way they came, so there was no need to worry about Lu sanjian\'s team.

Lin Yi, on the other hand, didn\'t have to worry about himself-he had too many ways to save his life, and he even had to think about which one was better.

"Master, is there any danger? Why don\'t we go back together? there\'s no need to take the risk ..."

Diao Mantian had a worried look on his face."It\'s not that I don\'t believe in master\'s strength. It\'s just that we\'ve already gained enough. Even if we don\'t provoke those darkness demonic beasts that have gathered together, it\'s enough to win!"

"Don\'t worry, there won\'t be any danger if I go alone. You may not be able to leave the herb field faster than me if you collect herbs along the way. I might catch up with you soon!"

Lin Yi patted Diao mang Tian\'s shoulder and nodded to Tang Yungui,"Alright, there\'s no time to lose. You guys hurry up and leave!"

With that, Lin Yi waved his hand and left, not waiting for their reactions. He quietly made his way to the location he\'d just detected.

Lu sanjian shook his head with a bitter smile. He cupped his fists at Lin Yi\'s back and turned to Tang Yungui and Diao Mantian,"Your master has entrusted you to this old man, so this old man can\'t let anything happen to you. Let\'s go, listen to your master, we\'ll go out first!"

and so, the nine of them turned around and went the opposite direction of lin yi \'s, starting a new round of attacks.

back to lin yi, after flying for a while, he was pretty close to the darkness demon beasts, and his spirit sense\'s range naturally extended out as well.

only now did lin yi realize that the dark beasts were gathering around a group of human martial artists!

other than the darkness magical beasts on this side, there were also a few other darkness magical beasts of similar strength surrounding them in other directions.

in the middle of the circle was a group of about eighty to ninety people. lin yi couldn\'t remember any of their names, but he knew them all-they were from the same school!

however, the number of people in their alliance far exceeded that of dean qi feng!

there were more than twenty academies here, and they had joined forces to enter the medicinal field, presumably to pick more medicinal herbs. they didn\'t expect to alarm the darkness magical beasts and be surrounded.

in terms of numbers, they didn\'t have much of an advantage, because there were more darkness magical beasts.

and the combat power of the two could not be mentioned in the same breath!

If it wasn\'t for the fact that they had the ability to form battle formations and temporarily maintain a certain amount of deterrence, they would have probably been swallowed by the darkness magical beasts long ago!

Although this Alliance could still hold on, there were already quite a few casualties.

Among the 80 to 90 people who were still alive, there were more than ten bodies. Most of them were hired martial artists.

The apothecaries of the apothecary school were all protected, so not many of them died.

Lin Yi did a quick count of the number of people present-there should\'ve been at least a hundred and twenty people in the team.

There were less than 90 people alive now, and with the ten or so corpses, there were only about 100 people.

The twenty or so people who disappeared were probably torn apart by the darkness magical beasts, and there were no remains left.

Judging from the darkness magical beasts \'encirclement, it was probably a sudden sneak attack. They were caught off guard and directly lost a quarter of their men.
