Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 1913



Chapter 1913: Failed

“Okay, I haven’t bought a house here yet. I’ve been living in a hotel. Let’s go back to the hotel together!” Huaijun said, excited.

Huaijun was staying at the police station’s guest house, and he had a suite as well. Before he bought a house, he’d be living there for the time being.

The people in the guest house obviously knew who huaijun was-they weren’t surprised that he’d come back with someone, thinking that he was meeting some sort of witness or informant.

“Let’s start now. I’ve already experienced it last time.” Lin Yi said with a smile.

“Alright!” Huaijun nodded heavily as he sat down in front of Lin Yi. He reached out his hands for Lin Yi to lock onto his meridians and started channeling his practitioner’s Arts.

Lin Yi was very familiar with how to increase his strength-he started the first stage of the art of Dragon mastery, and all the energy in his body turned into the Qi huaijun needed, flowing into huaijun’s meridians …

Huaijun’s strength, on the other hand, went from golden class late phase peak to Mystic, all the way up to Mystic early phase peak, Mystic mid phase … Mystic late phase peak! Perhaps it was because of Lin Yi’s increase in strength, but huaijun didn’t need to compress his Qi to break through from golden class late phase peak to Mystic early phase. There was a barrier, but Lin Yi helped him break through easily.

In other words, huaijun did feel the pain of breaking through, but it wasn’t as shocking as Yutian and Lingshan.

…..

Mystic late phase peak-huaijun had already reached that level, but Lin Yi didn’t stop there. He suddenly had an idea-if he used the second stage of the art of Dragon mastery to compress his Qi and help huaijun break through into Mystic, would that work?

One had to know that the second stage of the art of Dragon mastery was much purer than the first stage. The difference was so huge that even Lin Yi was shocked. If he used the second stage to compress it, he might be able to break through!

With that thought, Lin Yi lowered his voice and asked,”Junzi, I’m going to help you break through from Mystic to Earth Class, are you okay with that? It might be very painful, or even completely destroy my meridians, but I can still repair them …”

“Since it can be repaired, what are we waiting for? Come on, boss, if you want to increase your strength, how can you not take some risks?” Huaijun, on the other hand, was calm and collected.

Huaijun might’ve hesitated if all his meridians were destroyed and couldn’t be repaired, but now that Lin Yi could repair them even if they were destroyed … In the worst case scenario, he’d just have to suffer a little, and it’d be a waste of effort. If he succeeded, he’d get even stronger-did he even have to make a choice?

He believed that all cultivators would choose the latter.

“Alright, then you’ve endured it!” With that, Lin Yi switched the first stage of the art of Dragon mastery to the second stage. He wasn’t familiar with the second stage yet, but switching between two stages was still within his control.

Lin Yi tried to use the second stage of the art of Dragon mastery to compress his Qi, but to his surprise, it was extremely difficult! Compared to the first level, this was simply a world of difference.

The second stage of the art of Dragon mastery seemed to have made the Qi extremely pure, and it didn’t allow Lin Yi to compress it any further. Soon, a thin layer of sweat formed on Lin Yi’s forehead, but he made no progress in compressing the Qi!

Huaijun didn’t know what was going on-Lin Yi’s Qi had stopped all of a sudden, and it looked like he was trying to do something. He didn’t feel anything at all, and so he didn’t ask anything, just cooperating.

Lin Yi was panicking-he could use the second level’s Qi when he was channeling it, but it was a little out of control when it came to compressing it, as if it was completely out of control!

The pure energy that Lin Yi had gathered together tried to compress, but it would either slip away or dissipate on its own!

This was really strange! Lin Yi didn’t believe that he’d be able to control the Qi in his body-what was the point of training the art of Dragon mastery then? Gritting his teeth, Lin Yi gave up on compressing the large amount of pure energy he had before and chose to compress it in a smaller area.

This time, there was some effect-the small ball of Qi wasn’t really under his control, but under Lin Yi’s strong compression, it still slowly shrank to a certain size. Lin Yi was overjoyed-he didn’t dare wait any longer and sent the small ball of compressed Qi into huaijun’s meridians!

Huaijun’s shout had turned all of his clothes into ashes, and the Qi that was created was enough to destroy everything around him!

Lin Yi’s eyes lit up at the sight-he’d been in a similar situation to huaijun when he’d broken through to Earth Class … But that joy quickly turned into disappointment!

Huaijun hadn’t broken through to Earth Class yet-the Qi around him had stopped, and Lin Yi could tell with one look that he was still Mystic late phase peak! Although he had tried to break through to the earth rank with her help, he had not succeeded.

This situation often happened when other practitioners were trying to break through. The barrier between levels wasn’t that easy to break through. It was extremely difficult for a practitioner to break through a barrier, especially this kind of barrier that crossed levels. Most of them only broke through after trying a few times. There were almost no inheritors like Lin Yi who broke through the barrier in one try.

Of course, it was a different story for those who broke through with Lin Yi’s help.

Huaijun let out a long breath, a look of disappointment in his eyes. He knew his own situation-he’d failed at the last moment! Just as he was about to reach the earth Class, he failed because of the lack of Zhen Qi.

Huaijun had encountered this situation before when he was practitioning, so he didn’t think much of it. Lin Yi’s depressed expression made him feel better, and he smiled at him.”Team Eagle, you’re not depressed by this small blow, are you? It’s very normal for a cultivator to fail in their breakthrough!” (To be continued.)
