“Then I will protect you.”
Usually, if such a sentence is spoken as a question, it is very likely to be followed by a condition for the exchange.
Therefore, Shen Yi didn’t get too excited.
He turned back to look at this beautiful woman calmly, quietly waiting for what she would say next.
If it was already strange enough that he, a wandering cultivator from Hongze, carried the crime of slaying an immortal,
Then for someone with the proper sect lineage of a Da Luo Xian Zun (Great Prajna Immortal Venerable) disciple to join an organization like the Demon-Slaying Bureau, that was an absurdity beyond words.
Shen Yi’s laziness to ask did not equal stupidity.
The matters surrounding this woman were perhaps even more complicated than those on his own shoulders.
But what he really coveted was her Tai Xu Dao Fruit.
When breaking through to the fifth-grade realm, relying on the manifestation of a Dragon-Tiger fruit position to reveal a Luohan True Form, Shen Yi’s perception ability had already reached an extremely formidable level.
What surprised him most was that, whether back when he was at the seventh-grade or before manifesting as a Luohan,
His feeling toward Ye Lan remained exactly the same kind of danger.
No increase, no decrease.
No change—that was the most frightening thing.
