Beauty and the Bodyguard Chapter 1780

Chapter 1780: Chapter 1778-find a way

“That’s right, old friend Yu-it seems like your house Yu’s master’s desire to get revenge in the mortal world is the strongest!” House Tang’s old man’s birthday was ruined, and they’d broken off ties with the Ice Palace. Naturally, they hated Lin Yi and wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible, but he’d sealed his mouth on the day of the birthday banquet. Naturally, he couldn’t go and cause trouble for Lin Yi on the surface, or else he’d lose face if people found out the truth. So, naturally, he incited the Hidden House Yu to help the common house Yu take revenge.

“Everyone, even though the common house Yu was destroyed, and we, the Hidden House Yu, want to avenge them, we’re not in the right!” The old elder wasn’t stupid,”the Hidden House Committee already said that hidden houses can’t get involved in the common world’s business. We’re secretly helping the common house Yu earn money, which is a violation of the Hidden House rules. If we use this as an excuse to take revenge, then when the elder comes back, we’ll be the ones in trouble!” Therefore, even if we want to test him, we have to give him a reasonable reason. Even if the great elder questions us after this, we can s.h.i.+rk the responsibility and not let someone else take the blame!”

“In-law, you’re right!” Zhao Yu’s father nodded and said,””But there’s no reason for me to leave the mountain now, right? When Golden Bell sect’s Jin Wudi went down the mountain, first elder wasn’t here, and we gave him permission first. His reason for going down the mountain was sufficient to take revenge for his disciple, but the key was that he died after the incident. Even if first elder wanted to blame him, he couldn’t find anyone!”

Everyone agreed with old master Zhao’s words. If Jin Wudi didn’t die, then they could test if the great elder still existed. But now that Jin Wudi was dead, there was no need for the great elder to appear again. So, if they wanted to leave the mountain, they had to find a good reason!

“Let’s all draw on our heads! Think about it, is there a reason why we must leave the mountain, a reason that even if the first elder finds out, he won’t blame us!” The old man of the you family said.

“This … It’s not like there’s no other way.” Old master Yu said after some thought,”The Hidden House Committee is set up to restrict the hidden houses, but also to resolve the conflicts between them so they don’t fight each other.”

“So you’re saying that we should create a conflict and let the great elder judge …” Master Zhao’s eyes lit up.

“There’s no mistake!” The old man nodded,”We just need to create a fake conflict and make the two hidden houses fight. That way, the Hidden House Committee will have to interfere, and the big elder will have to show up!”

“But … Didn’t we say before that we can hold a hidden house meeting to solve the problems? Moreover, there’s still you, the second elder, here. There are some things that you, as the second elder, can decide. ” The old man of the you family frowned and asked.

“That’s true, but what if our house Yu has a conflict with other houses?” Master Yu smiled and asked.

…

“Oh?” The old man of the you family paused for a second and gave the old man of the Yu family a thumbs up.”Haha, as expected of the first to reach the sky Cla.s.s. The older the wiser, you really have a way! You’re the second elder of the Hidden House Council-if you have a fight with someone else, we can’t do anything about it, and only the great elder can come out and judge!”

“There’s no mistake!” The old man nodded,”The people here aren’t outsiders, so who’s willing to cooperate with house Yu? Of course, you might suffer some losses, but this is the only way. After all, no one wants to be the first one to break the rules. If you are not willing, then pretend I didn’t say anything!”

“Cooperate. Of course, we’re all willing to cooperate. The key is that there’s no suitable point of contradiction!” The you family’s old man said,”our families are evenly matched. If we have a conflict and fight with real weapons, we will definitely suffer heavy losses. At that time, the outcome may not be decided. If there is no suitable reason for the conflict, then others will see it as an act! At our age, we’re no fools. We can’t be as impulsive as the young!”

“That’s true … But, perhaps some of you here have heard that we lost a Qi gathering pill!” With that, elder Yu looked at elder Zhao-as far as he was concerned, Xiaojin must’ve told him already if she knew about this.

However, old master Zhao misunderstood-did house Yu know something? Could it be that Yu Huoxing’s mouth wasn’t tight and he said it?

“This … I’ve heard a little about it …” Old master Zhao tried to remain calm.”But why did you suddenly bring this up?”

“If the Qi gathering pill is s.n.a.t.c.hed away by another family, then there will be a contradiction!” “Xiaochen could’ve entered Sky Cla.s.s as well,” the old man said,”if we lost such a good opportunity, then the person who took the pill would be the biggest enemy of house Yu. It’s understandable that we’d fight them with everything we’ve got.”

“However, our you family can’t steal your Qi gathering pill. Although it’s hard to refine it, if we want it, hehe … It’s not that we can’t refine it, but it’s not worth the investment.” The old man of the you family said with a smile.

No one present thought that the old man was exaggerating. After all, while the Qi gathering pill was a top-tier pill for hidden houses, it wasn’t much for ancient sects, especially the sky elixir sect. They could make it if they wanted to, but there would be some side effects after taking the pill. Only someone like Yu Xiaochen, who wasn’t very talented, would take it. After all, if Yu Xiaochen didn’t have a Qi gathering pill in his life … If nothing went wrong, then he’d be stuck at Earth Cla.s.s late phase peak-after taking the pill and breaking through into Sky Cla.s.s, it’d be extremely hard to level up again, but Xiaochen never thought of doing that!

This was the difference between hidden houses and ancient sects-hidden houses were mostly satisfied with Sky Cla.s.s, and with the protection of a Sky Cla.s.s master, it would guarantee the prosperity of the house, but ancient sects were after something even higher than Sky Cla.s.s, looking down on the path of heaven!

It was just that no one had broken through to the path of heaven yet, and those who had once pursued the path of heaven had all disappeared. So, no one knew what power was above the sky Cla.s.s, and no one knew that there was a stronger existence above the path of heaven.
