Beauty and the Bodyguard

Liu Ziyu was the Emperor of the Hong Shang Empire. If he wanted to change sects for his nominal cousin, su Yumo, he could do so with just a word. However, he did not know why Su Yumo was so unwilling to leave the Jian Chun sect.

Lin Yi blinked. If su lingyue didn\'t mention it, he wouldn\'t have thought of that cold girl. Speaking of which, she could be considered his cousin, right?

"Yes! I\'ll definitely visit cousin Yumo. If she\'s willing, I\'ll bring her along when I return. "

If su Yumo didn\'t want to leave the sect, Lin Yi wouldn\'t force her.

They only exchanged a few words about su Yumo before the family dinner ended and they went to rest.

Liu Ziyu really wanted to talk to the cousin he respected, but he didn\'t want to disturb Lin Yi after the long journey and the intense battle.

The night passed uneventfully, and Lin Yi\'s group set off the next day. The imperial capital was just a temporary stop, and they wouldn\'t be staying for long.

Liu Ziyu put down the complicated Affairs in his hands and accompanied Sima Yunqi and his wife to personally send them off.

Lin Yi promised to stay for two more days before leaving.

The artifact language and the feathered forest guards did not continue to send them off because there were some matters to be taken care of at the martial Alliance branch. Therefore, the artifact language had brought most of the feathered forest guards back to the naduo titled Empire\'s imperial capital.

Zhang Butong was the only one left with a ten-man team to escort Lin Yi.

Lin Yi couldn\'t reject them, so he just let them be. It wasn\'t too obvious to have another team in the formation master\'s group, after all, unlike the huge commotion from the Imperial Guards.

The formation path Grandmaster\'s team was almost regarded as the logistics team of the Imperial Guards.

Nothing else happened during the rest of the journey. The Allied forces that invaded the Hong Shang Empire had completely surrendered. All the Allied forces that were still within the Hong Shang Empire\'s territory had received orders to give up all armed forces and resistance. After surrendering, they were waiting for the Hong Shang Empire to deal with them.

The group of people approached the location of the sword spring sect without any obstructions.

As the location of the origin of array Dao was near the sword spring sect, and there was no courier station in that area that could accommodate the group of array Dao grandmasters, the sword spring sect was very honored to be assigned the task of receiving the group of grandmasters.

Before Lin Yi arrived at the sword spring sect, he temporarily separated himself from the main group and brought the small team of Imperial Guards to Zhang Yiming\'s house to visit him.

Lin Yi calculated the time-Zhang Yiming would have at least half a day to meet his family after he got home, and he\'d be able to arrive at the sword spring sect at about the same time as the others.

If Zhang xiaopang wanted to stay for a few more days, it was fine. Lin Yi would go and participate in the test of the source of array Dao. After it was over, he would come back to Feng Qi continent with Zhang Yiming.

But Zhang Yiming said that he just wanted to see his family, and after that, he\'d continue following Lin Yi. Lin Yi didn\'t say anything about that, and everything was up to Zhang Yiming.

Without Lin Yi, the group of grandmasters arrived at the sword spring sect as planned. Shi Yucai didn\'t leave with Lin Yi, and Jia Junjie and the others didn\'t find a chance to provoke them.

After all, Lin Yi was only leaving temporarily. They were also afraid that Lin Yi would go crazy if Shi wancai suffered a loss, so everyone lived in peace.

Zhang Yiming\'s father became the Yunying city Lord because of Lin Yi.

Therefore, the Zhang family was naturally the most powerful family in Yunying city. They were no longer the nouveau riche family that used to rely on their family\'s mines to throw money.

In fact, if the Zhang family wanted to expand, they could become the Lord of a bigger city, or they could build a Commandery or even a Kingdom.

After all, with Zhang Yiming and Lin Yi\'s relationship, Liu Ziyu, as the Emperor of the Hong Shang Empire, would have no problem making Zhang Yiming\'s family a King.

However, Zhang Yiming\'s father, Zhang Weibing, understood the principle of "being content with what you have," and did not expect a higher status. With the Yunying city and the Yunying fine iron ore in his hands, he was very satisfied.

Zhang Weibing had thought it through very clearly. Although Yunying city was remote, he had power, money, and wealth in his hands. He was equivalent to a local tyrant. He could enjoy anything he wanted. Why should he go out and worry about not being happy by working hard?

Even if he became a regional King, he might not get more!

In addition, their proudest son and the legendary boss Sima Yi, who had the most potential, were the powerful backers of the Zhang family.

He didn\'t need to worry at all!

It was also because Zhang Weibing was not greedy that the Zhang family was not affected by the attack on the Hong Shang Empire by the Allied forces.

The Alliance Army was simply too lazy to attack a remote place like the Zhang family. Even after taking down the imperial capital, no one would come. At most, they would send a Memorial to the Yunying city to change the flag to express their allegiance.

As a result, Yunying city, which was not affected by the war, was like a peach flower source isolated from the world. His daily life was not affected at all. When Zhang Yiming returned home, he was also dumbfounded.

"Young master! Why did you come back? Why didn\'t you give us a heads up?"

The old Butler of the Zhang family was surprised and happy to see Zhang Yiming. He was surprised that there was no news of the young master\'s return, so the family was not prepared to welcome him.

​ They were naturally happy that the most promising young master had returned home, and he even brought along the legendary Sima Yi who had built the Empire all by himself!

"Uncle blessing, you don\'t have to be busy. Boss and I were just passing by and dropped by the house to take a look, so we didn\'t give father and mother a surprise! They\'ll be leaving in a while. Are they in the backyard?"

Zhang Yiming stepped forward and hugged the old Butler. This was the old family who had watched him grow up and could no longer be considered a servant.

After greeting the old Butler, Zhang Yiming wanted to bring Lin Yi to the backyard to see his family, but the old Butler pulled on his arm with a bitter smile.

"Lord Sima, young master, it\'s really unfortunate. Because they didn\'t know that you were coming back, master and Madam took their family out to play two days ago ... Under master\'s governance, Yunying city\'s politics are clean and there\'s nothing much to do usually. Therefore, master took his family out and said that they would only return in three to five days ..."

The old Butler was a little embarrassed. Zhang Weibing\'s position as Castellan was appointed by Lin Yi, but when Lin Yi came, the castellan just left the city and brought his family out for a vacation ... It sounded like he was not doing his job properly!

Zhang Yiming was dumbfounded. What the hell? I crossed the continent and traveled through thousands of rivers and mountains to visit my family, and you guys actually went out to play together?

This is preposterous!

Didn\'t you say that you would bring me along!

"Lord Sima, young master, please come in and have a seat. Have some food and rest. I will immediately send people to look for old master. If he doesn\'t return today, he will definitely return tomorrow!"

The old Butler was at a loss. If it was just Zhang Yiming coming home, it wouldn\'t matter. What difference did it make if he came home one day earlier or later? But Lin Yi was here too!
