Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 1481: 第1480章 雨凝的决心

On top of that, the success rate was also extremely low. The reason why it was called a pill was because both of them were just medicine makers- they were not elixir refiners. They could only modulate herbs into a pill but not refining them to elixirs.

“I....” Yu Bing smiled bitterly. Initially, he was planning to give Yu Ning a surprise by telling him the good news of meeting Lin Yi. He knew that Yu Ning would have been delighted beyond belief, but.... who would have thought that this surprise became a piece of bad news. He didn’t know how to explain it all of a sudden.

After all, Lin Yi was attacked right before his eyes while he was completely helpless in the situation.

“What’s wrong? Big brother? From your tone, you don’t seem to be enjoying it there?” Yu Ning asked.

“This.... I have a bit of bad news.... Sister, you have to stay strong...” Yu Bing hesitated.

“What news? What is so terrifying that you can’t say it? Big brother, just what has happened over there?” Yu Ning panicked as her heart tightened, “Did you face any trouble there?”

“No, not me... sister, did you know who I meet in the inn here?” Yu bing smiled bitterly.

“Who?” Yu Ning froze and asked.

“Lin Yi!” Yu Bing answered.

“What! You saw him there?” Yu Ning was excited and surprised at the same time, “You met him? Does it mean that he’s also attending the test..... no that can’t be right, you were talking about bad news.... is the bad news related to him?”

Yu Ning’s awareness brought her back to reality, could it be that something had happened to him?

“Yeah....” Yu Bing had to let the cat out of the bag. Instead of hesitating and dragging, he decided to tell Yu Ning the whole story from the head to toe as he started compiling everything that happened together and make it into a speech.

“What! He lost all his strength.... enemy was from the ancient sect....” Yu Ning was astonished to hear what happened. She did not blame her brother for not standing up for Lin Yi as she knew that being a hidden noble house was nothing before the eye of an ancient sect. She also knew how strong the opponent was. Even if her brother stood up to help, things would still not have ended well for them, either! It was a wise choice not to stand up, his decision was accurate- one couldn’t just use their emotions to act!

“Yeah.... I’m truly sorry, sister. I couldn’t help at that time...” Yu Bing smiled bitterly as he explained. “Father has high hope on me, the future of House Yu lies on this test.... I can’t lose my strength yet....”

“I understand... but he....” Yu Ning shook her head- she understood where her brother was coming from, naturally, she wouldn’t blame him too, “I was so excited when you told me that he had the strength of a peak mid-phase of the mystic class.... but he lost his strength suddenly....”

“That’s the main reason why I’m calling you right now. I planned to hide this from you, not wanting you to be upset of the news,” Yu Bing said, “But I need your help if we want to recover Lin Yi’s strength- we need a large number of herbs that can boost one’s strength like the soul gathering pill. Our house has a stock but there’s a limit to how much I can get in my hands... the rest is up to you now....”

“But... I’m not even a practitioner, how can I just request for them out of the blue, I’ve never requested them before, have I?” Yu Ning flinched. What her brother suggested was really in order for them to help Lin Yi recover his strength, and she would do anything for him!

The night they spent together during that valentine’s day was something that she could never forget in her entire life- her heart had long belonged to Lin Yi.

But Yu Ning was not a person who acted on her emotions- she knew that if she were to ask for the pills from her family out of a sudden, they would surely suspect something was going on. She had to have a strategy beforehand....

“So we need to think this through but everything just happened so fast, I don’t have a plan just yet,” Yu Bing smiled bitterly, “I just wanted to tell you first so we can come up with a plan together..”

“Sure, I’ll start thinking about it!” Yu Ning didn’t dare to procrastinate on things that were related to Lin Yi.

“Okay, I will leave the rest to you. Remember don’t let anyone know about this, I’ll call home to report my situation now!” Yu Bing sighed. Although he didn’t have the mood to call his home now, reporting his safety to his family was still important.

“En.... brother...” Yu Ning hesitated.

“What? What’s wrong?” Yu Ning spoke the moment Yu Bing was about to end the call.

“Can I.... talk to him?” Yu Ning built up her courage as she asked.

“Tomorrow maybe... I’ll try to change his mind, but now he’s resting in his room. I think he doesn’t want to be disturbed so maybe we can do it tomorrow instead?” Yu Bing said.

“Okay....” Yu Ning nodded- she could understand how sad Lin Yi would be now. Losing one’s strength was something every practitioner didn’t ever want happening, “However, brother, please tell Lin Yi that I will do my best to help him. Ask him to have faith in me, I will make sure things work out in our way, even if it’s impossible now... I believe... I can still help him! Please advise him not to give up on himself!”

Yu Ning got so pumped up- she almost exposed her own secret... that she was capable of inheriting the cultivation of the ancient art. This secret was confidential even within the House Yu, other than Yu Ning herself, only old Elder Yu and Yu Xiaochen knew about this, and even Yu Yi hadn’t been told about this top secret.

“En! I will!” Yu Bing didn’t ask but he had already figured it out when he was younger. After all, this was House Yu’s ultimate secret, if his dad didn’t want him to know, naturally, he wouldn’t ask unnecessary questions that would trouble his sister!

After all, this wasn’t about his sister’s and his relationship anymore, this was about breaking the rules of House Yu. Yu Bing had to take this seriously.

After reporting his safety to his family, Yu Bing had lost the motivation to bond with the other participants. He lied in his bed and decided to rest early. Although, he couldn’t fall asleep with all the thoughts in his mind, he had nothing better to do....

Zhao Qitan, Zhao Qijiu and Yu Shan were on their way back to the inn from the restaurant. It was already three in the morning, and they were obviously very happy, celebrating. However, there was one person ahead of the trio, this person had just joined their party not long ago.

However, this mysterious guy was no simple man, otherwise, there was no way a person like Yu Shan- who came from the head of hidden house, Hidden House Yu- would be treating him with full respect and honor!

“Nitian bro, having you in our party is the best blessing we could ever ask for! I believe we will have a ridiculously good outcome from this test!” Zhao Qibing was fired up- having a connection with an ancient noble house was beneficial in every aspect!
