MTL - Beauty and the Bodyguard

  Chapter 10664

   Give up the possibility of a second giant in exchange for a larger strategic space.

   Among them, what is needed is not only great wisdom, but also great courage!

  Kong Shenglin suddenly said, "Do you know what you gave up?"

  Everyone looked at Gu Lie in unison.

  The Gu family's consideration of voluntarily giving up the second giant can't be wrong, but at least for Gu Lie himself, he did make a huge sacrifice in doing so.

   And such a sacrifice, even if the Gu family tilted all the family resources to him later, it would be irreparable.

  No matter from which point of view, Gu Lie's choice today is definitely not a good choice for himself.

  After all, if people are not for themselves, heaven and earth will perish.

  Kong Shenglin's words clearly meant to provoke the relationship between Gu Lie and the Gu family. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Gu Lie not only has great strength, but also has great value.

  With Gu Lie's current loyalty to the Gu family, it is naturally impossible to win him over with just one word, even if the person who speaks is Kong Shenglin.

  But after today, there will inevitably be a rift between Gu Lie and the Gu family. Under the guidance of caring people, perhaps it won't be long before this rift will widen into a gap.

   When the time comes, it will be their harvest time.

   As a result, Gu Lie grinned inexplicably: "You don't think I gave up voluntarily, did you? If I have the strength to sit down all the time, how much water will I have to get into my head before I can stand up voluntarily?"

   "..."

  Everyone was speechless.

  Kong Shenglin and the other giants took a closer look at his expression. Rao, at their level, they couldn't tell whether this guy's words were true or not.

   Walking down the steps, when passing by Lin Yi, Gu Lie suddenly paused: "That position is quite fierce, brother, don't be too **** yourself, you will die."

   After finishing speaking, Shi Shiran walked to the back and became a melon-eating crowd like a normal person.

  Lin Yi raised his eyebrows slightly.

  He has no intersection with this Gu Lie, and it is the first time seeing him today. If it is necessary to talk about the relationship, at best, it is because of Gu Jiumu's care for him, and they are potential natural alliances.

   At this time, among all the candidates invited to the scene, except for the two unlucky ghosts Xijile and Nie Tianlu, there are only two people who have not yet appeared on the stage.

  One is Lin Yi, and the other is Yuan Kun wearing a Shengxian vest.

   It is worth mentioning that from the beginning to the present, all the tycoons above have checked back and forth over and over again, but no one has ever seen through Yuan Kun's identity.

   I have to say, at least in the aspect of deception, Yuan Kun really has the level of a master, even Lin Yi can't help it.

   "There are only you and me left. It seems that Brother Lin and I are really destined."

  Yuan Kun said something casually seemingly unintentionally, but actually paid attention to every subtle reaction of Lin Yi.

  Theoretically, no one can interfere with the lottery ceremony of the Tianji bottle, not even the top giants.

  But theories are just theories after all.

  As long as there is an idea in this regard, especially for a top tycoon like Gu Jiumu, it is not unimaginable to cheat on such a major occasion where everyone is watching.

  Although the possibility is not high, but now there are only two people left, and one of them is Lin Yi who almost publicly labeled Gu Jiumu, which is hard not to think of.

  After all, judging from the performance of the people in front, the whole trial sitting process is extremely difficult, and it is obvious that the lower the lottery is, the more advantage it has.

  Because, the on-the-spot experience of the previous people can be summarized on the spot.

  With experience reference and without experience reference, in many cases, there are often two completely different results.

  Gu Jiumu cheated for Lin Yi, Yuan Kun didn't think it was strange, on the contrary, he thought it was very normal, but he was left together until the end, which inevitably made him suspicious.

   Could it be, is this just a pure coincidence?

   A suspicious person like him is naturally very sensitive to any coincidence, especially now that he is wearing Sheng Xian's vest out of spite, so the occurrence of such a coincidence is naturally full of doubts.

  However, doubts are suspicions, at least for now, it is not a bad thing for him.

  Ever since he merged with the sage Cannian, although Yuan Kun has strong confidence in his own strength, if he is the first to take the stage, he might be unprepared and capsize in the gutter.

   Looking back now, with the lessons learned from so many people before, the variables are much smaller.

   "If there are no accidents, shouldn't it be my turn next?"

  Yuan Kun is still testing.

  Lin Yi raised his eyelids indifferently: "50% chance, it's normal for anyone's turn."

  Yuan Kun nodded: "That's true."

  At this time, a breath flew out from the secret bottle, it was his Yuan Kun's breath.

  Yuan Kun looked at Lin Yi meaningfully and smiled, then walked towards the steps. For a moment, all the eyes of the audience were focused on him.

  In any case, he was also a powerful figure who defeated Xijile and Nie Tianlu in public. Even the high-ranking giants paid close attention to his every move.

  Especially Xi Tathagata and Nie Liangchen, Yuan Kun's threat to them was almost clearly written on his face.

  Looking at the steps in front of him, Yuan Kun chuckled and stepped up without saying a word.

   Huge pressure then enveloped his whole body.

  However, Yuan Kun didn't seem to feel the slightest bit, not to mention that he was directly kneeled down on the spot like Chu Zhengqing was at the beginning, and he didn't even shake his footsteps at all, and he easily climbed up the stairs.

  It gives people the feeling that this is not a stressful test at all, but a relaxing and enjoyable trip out for sightseeing.

   Eighth level! Sixteenth level! Level 20!

  Before being trapped on the few steps with the most people, it failed to have the slightest impact on Yuan Kun.

   In the blink of an eye, he had climbed the twenty-third step, and easily reached the tenth seat.

  The faces of everyone changed.

  Gu Lie looked very relaxed just now, but overall, Yuan Kun is even better than him!

   Is this guy really stronger than Gu Lie?

  Under the complex eyes of the audience, Yuan Kun sat on the tenth chair with a relaxed face, and a stick of incense was lit.

  But this time, Yuan Kun's expression finally changed.

  The pressure of the twenty-three steps ahead is of course strong enough to crush most people, but it is not in the same order of magnitude as the pressure brought by the tenth seat itself.

  However, just when everyone thought that Yuan Kun would retreat in spite of difficulties like Gu Lie, Yuan Kun's expression immediately recovered his composure.
