Beauty and the Bodyguard

A Shocking Scene

“Yes!” Uncle Pi walked out coldly with one look at Pengzhan, his voice flat. “Chu Pengzhan, I’d prefer not to kill. I hope you can make a reasonable decision! I was able to hold back and let Wei Zhizun leave, but you… You’re too weak.”

“Oh? So you’re the one who crippled Wei Zhizun with one hit?” Lin Yi said as he turned to the man.

“Correct, that was me. You want to try?” Uncle Pi said arrogantly.

“Oh, I would’ve forgotten if you hadn’t reminded me. Everything you people have done to Uncle Chu, I’ll pay back twofold!” Lin Yi’s voice was flat, but some trace of emotion could be found within it. “But, you’re way too weak. You’d probably die if I gave you two hits.”

“You arrogant brat, what did you say?” Uncle Pi fumed at the words—was this cripple looking to die?

“Here, I won’t kill you, seeing that you’re just working for the Xiao’s.” Lin Yi said dully. “I’ll use half of my strength to strike you—if you take the hit, I’ll let you go, I won’t cause you trouble! But if you can’t, then there’s not much I can do.”

“Wha?” Uncle Pi froze. Then he laughed, he laughed and slapped his chest. “You want to hit me? Alright, go ahead! But if you can’t kill me, I’ll kill you! Let’s see what you can do!”

With that, Uncle Pi puffed up his chest and stood in front of Lin Yi! As a mystic mid-phase peak physical practitioner, he had no fear—Lin Yi wouldn’t be able to damage him even before he lost his strength, he was only a mystic early phase, after all! Two levels beneath him! There was no cause for fear at all.

“Wait!” Xiao Ben hesitated at the sight. Lin Yi seemed to be serious!

If Lin Yi was just acting, why would he accept letting Uncle Pi hit him afterward?

So he wanted to make sure what he was getting himself into- things today were way too odd!

But Xiao Ben was too late! Lin Yi’s palm launched itself at Uncle PI!

Uncle Pi, who’d been puffing his chest up and laughing mockingly the last instant, flew out of the house like a kite that lost its string, landing with a loud slam onto the road outside!

Xiao Ji stared blankly at Lin Yi, and so did Xiao Ben!

From what they understood, Lin Yi had no strength, left, there was no way he could push Uncle Pi out with one hit!

Could it be? The possibility, the insanity of it crossed their minds—all this while, Lin Yi had never lost his strength!

“You- You… You…” Xiao Ji’s eyes were wide as he looked at Lin Yi, uttering three you’s.

“Stop saying that. I was worried I’d kill him, so I only used forty percent. He’ll live.” Lin Yi said dully.

Xiao Ji and Xiao Ben didn’t know what to say anymore. They turned and ran out of the villa to look at Uncle Pi’s injuries!

After all, this was their only trump card in House Xiao! If he were to die, then House Xiao would fall!

They were already falling as is, Uncle Pi had to live!

The two of them reached Uncle Pi, but, just as they stepped out, a screeching noise pierced their ears!

And following that, another slam—a crashing sound that sent Uncle Pi flying away… by a red Ferrari.

Uncle Pi only cried out before slamming onto the ground with a loud thud, blood everywhere… It was over for him.

“Wha?” Xiao JI and Xiao Ben couldn’t believe what they were seeing. What sort of coincidence was this? Uncle Pi just got blown away by a car?

The two brothers stood there, stunned and not sure what to do. They were about to go see if he was alright when the woman who hit Uncle Pi came out of the Ferrari, yelling. “Who! Who was it that came charging out into the road like an idiot? I’m telling you, people, don’t expect me to make any compensation, look at who I am! I’m from House Xiao, from Yanjing! This Ferrari is worth millions! Look at what happened to it!”

It was none other than Ju Huli, who’d been rushing over in her Ferrari after hearing that her husband was about to humiliate Chu Pengzhan! She wanted to see just how desperate the man would look like, so she sped her way here!

Yet she had just arrived at the door when a shadow jumped out in front of her car, she didnt have the reflex to break, nor the time, and so the shadow flew away from the impact! Only after she went down her car did she realize it was an old man, bleeding intensely!

Huli was already used to her tyranny and feared nothing even when it came to something like this. So she ran someone down? So what, it was an accident! Just pay some compensation and she’d be fine!

She was raving about arrogantly whilst Xiao Ben and Xiao Ji stared blankly—never would they have expected for Huli to be the one who did this!

Xiao Ji burst into rage and charged out, twisting his waist and sending a slap across her mouth. “You damn bitch, you blind bitch!”

Huli lost all her arrogance. She looked at Xiao Ji, in complete and utter disbelief. “Honey… Why..?”

“Because you’re a fucking blind bitch, that’s why! Fuck you!” Xiao Ji sent another slap across her mouth, and some blood came out. “Look at who you ran over, it’s Uncle Pi, you dumb bitch!”

“Ah?” Huli went into confusion at the words—she did? She ran over Uncle PI?

“Brother, enough, stop it! Let’s see how Uncle Pi’s doing!” Xiao Ben was panicking as well, but he understood the situation. What was the point of hitting people at this stage? They had to check Uncle Pi’s wounds!

“Hmph! I’ll show you when we get home!” He turned to Uncle Pi as well after hearing the words.

Huli also held her mouth and carefully followed. Uncle Pi was lying on the ground, not moving one bit in the puddle of red and white… And Huli felt a wave of nausea wash over her! She realized, at the same time, that Uncle Pi was the pillar supporting House Xiao! They’d be done for if he died!
