Beauty and the Bodyguard

Niu Hong seemed to be used to kneeling. Even though he was kneeling there, he was still full of confidence. I’m afraid you don’t know that our director is the most powerful array master in the Divine Kingdom on land, right?

“Even if all the so-called array masters work together, they won’t be able to

resist one finger of our director.”

“The array that is pressing down on you is the masterpiece of our chief.”

“You can barely withstand it and not be flattened on the spot. You can already

be considered to have some skill. Unfortunately…

Before Niu Hong could finish, Lin Yi stood up and stretched.

“What’s a pity?” Lin Yi looked down at him.

Niu Hong was speechless.

He hadn’t even finished bragging before he was slapped in the face. Even with his pride and confidence, he couldn’t help but feel a little uncomfortable.

Niu Hong was dumbfounded. Even those array formation grandmasters working together were helpless. Our chief’s array formation concept is clearly an entire era ahead of the Divine Kingdom on land!”

“You’re bragging so hard. I’m starting to suspect that you’re deliberately

playing flattery.”

“Your chief’s name is Lu Kaijian, right?” Lin Yi smiled faintly. This array formation is indeed something, but not much.”

Pa! Pa! Pa!

A round of applause rang out, and a curly-haired man wearing a cape immediately entered his sight.” As expected of a true giant. I reckon that only you giants would dare to comment on me in such a condescending manner. Oh, no, I should say that you’re the only one. The others seem to have some self- awareness.”

Lin Yi raised his eyes. It was the director of the technology development bureau, Lu Kaijian.

But Lin Yi’s attention was more on the cloaked man behind him.

This person was covered in a cloak, and the aura he emitted was quite strange. Instead of calling him a human, he looked more like a beast, and an extremely ferocious beast.

Lin Yi turned back to Lu Kaijian.” My skills are limited. I only know a little about formations. It’s hard for me to be a master.”

Lu Kaijuan raised his eyebrows.” The mighty Giant Lin is now being praised to the heavens. Everyone says that you can be compared to the three top-notch giants. Are you afraid now?” It can’t be, right?

“It’s a pity,” Lin Yi changed the topic,”If this was all Chief Lu’s array work, I’d

be able to comment on it with my meager skills.”

Lu Kaijian was speechless.

“If you have any other formations, why don’t you show them to me? Lin Yi smiled.

Lu Kaijian narrowed his eyes and laughed.” Formations are just a small trick. It’s just a small toy that I play with to kill time when I’m free. I’m the director of the Technology Development Bureau. It’s fine for me to play around. If I really waste my energy on this, I’ll be called a slacker.

Niu Hong was stunned.

In his impression, his attainments in array formations had always been the thing that his bureau chief was most proud of. Being able to easily crush the group of so-called array masters outside was also the thing that everyone in the Technology Development Bureau admired the most.

But now, in front of Lin Yi, it was nothing.

An absurd thought appeared in his mind.

Was the director afraid of Lin Yi?

Impossible! It was absolutely impossible!

Niu Hong was still thinking of ways to help Lu Kaijuan, but only Lu Kaijuan himself knew that he had no confidence in facing Lin Yi, at least in terms of formations.

The super array formation at the entrance was already the highest level of Lu Kaijian’s skill.

Lin Yi, however, was able to break it with ease-the difference between the two formations was obvious.

This was not something that could be covered up by burying one’s head in the sand.

“I was going to ask Chief Lu for advice, but it looks like he doesn’t want to give me any face.” Lin Yi sighed.

“Face is not given by others, but by yourself.”

Lu Kaijian looked at Lin Yi indifferently,” I’m sorry. You have a lot of respect outside, but you don’t have enough respect here. Please leave.”

In the Alliance Headquarters ‘territory, it was the first time that someone chased away a real big shot. Even for the Technology Development Bureau, which had always had a high status, this was unprecedented.

After all, the saying” Don’t insult a big guy” was deeply rooted in the hearts of the Alliance.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the pressure fell on Lin Yi.

He was a popular big shot, and his every move was watched by everyone. Today, he came to the Technology Development Bureau and caused such a huge commotion. It was bound to spread online.

To be precise, there were already people discussing it online.

If he was pushed back like this, it would naturally be embarrassing. However, if he used his identity as a giant to force his way in, he would still be laughed at by others.

Not to mention, the Technology Development Bureau wasn’t that easy to break into. It wasn’t like anyone could just barge in.

Lu Kaijuan was certain of this.

He wanted Lin Yi to be in a dilemma!

“If my reputation isn’t big enough, then I wonder if their reputation is big enough?”

Lin Yi snapped his fingers, and a group of powerful masters rushed over from all directions. They surrounded the entire technology development bureau, and the person leading them was the new acting director of the Alliance Security Bureau, Yi Jinglun.

Lu Kaijuan, who had been calm and collected just a moment ago, instantly turned black.

If it was just Lin Yi alone, he wouldn’t care even if the guy was acting like a real big guy.

After all, he wasn’t the only one who couldn’t get into the technology development bureau.

However, now that the Alliance Security Bureau was involved, the nature of the matter had completely changed.

The responsibility of the Alliance Security Bureau was to maintain the safety of the entire Alliance. Once he stood on the opposite side of them, Lu Kaijian wouldn’t have to face Lin Yi alone, but the entire Alliance of Divine Academies. Yi Jinglun went straight to the point.” We’ve received news that all the array masters have gone missing. It’s suspected to be related to the Technology Development Bureau. We hope that Director Lu can cooperate with the investigation.”

Lu Kaijian’s face darkened.” The disappearance of the grandmasters is the Formation Association’s business. What does it have to do with the Alliance Security Bureau?”

Yi Jinglun said,” We have the right to intervene in any matter that might endanger the Alliance. We have to intervene. Otherwise, it would be a dereliction of duty. If Director Lu has any questions, you can report it to the highest board of directors.”

With that, he waved his hand and ordered his subordinates to enter the arena. Lin Yi crossed his arms and watched Lu Kaijian’s next move.

Lu Kaijian only snorted and did not continue to stop him.

Yi Jinglun could not help but feel pity.
