The Secret of the Goddess

Chapter 39 Let’s set off today

"Who else wants to challenge?" He Haoshan asked loudly.

Zhao Ancheng and Zhao Xuan were both unable to resist and were carried down.

The guards below were talking a lot.

"It's a pity. If Zhao Ancheng was not injured, Xue Yi would definitely not be able to win."

"It would be great if Zhong Zhenyue is here. On the seventh floor of the cave, we will definitely win!"

"Alas, the most powerful Zhong Zhenyue and Xiao Lan have been sent to Donghuang, otherwise Xue Yi would not have the chance to show off his majesty."

Many people are disaffected.

But it can only be done with lip service.

"In that case, I declare that Xue Yi has passed the examination and officially became the personal bodyguard of the eldest lady!"

Seeing that everyone had no intention of fighting, He Haoshan announced the result in advance.

Then he said to everyone: "Everything I said just now is a joke. It is not luck that Xue Yi is today. He is very good, diligent in practice, bold and careful. I have seen his growth over the years. You don't have to be jealous. Now There are many young masters and young ladies in the house, and there is a shortage of people around them. As long as you learn from Xue Yi, you will have the opportunity to get out of the guard department and achieve better development in the future."

"One more thing to remind you all. The duty of a guard is to look after the home and courtyard and protect the master. Do this well and then think about other things. Do you understand?"

The voice of Commander-in-Chief He Haoshan echoed in the martial arts training ground.

The restless thoughts of the guards were tamed, and they responded in unison: "Understood!"

Then a weak voice came from the corner: "With Xue Yi's strength, how can he protect the eldest lady? The eldest lady can't protect him enough..."

The Commander-in-Chief had keen hearing and looked over there when he heard the words: "Zhang Songcai, do you have any objection to the eldest lady's decision?"

"No, no, no, I didn't say that just now!" A thin guard quickly explained.

He Haoshan snorted coldly: "The eldest lady dares to question, I think you don't want to mess around anymore. Come on, add 5,000 kilograms of weight to him, and train with weights until dark today!"

"Ah? Five thousand catties? The commander-in-chief doesn't want it! People will die!" Zhang Songcai's screams echoed in the martial arts field.

There was a sound of gloating around.

Xue Yi smiled faintly and felt much more relaxed. He clasped his fists at He Haoshan and said, "Commander, I will go back to the eldest lady first."

"Go ahead and keep your responsibilities in mind. When necessary, you will be the master's other life." He Haoshan nodded with a hint of approval in his eyes.

Xue Yi defeated the fourth level of Dongtian Realm and the injured fifth level of Dongtian Realm with the first level of Dongtian Realm. This performance is already very good.

If he were not a guard, but a member of the clan, he would probably be given the title of "Young Master".

Of course, being the eldest lady's bodyguard is actually no less important than being the young master.

In some ways, it’s even more worthy of attention!

…

Xue Yi left the guard's office, still thinking about why he should find a reason to get rid of Zhao Ancheng and Zhao Xuan.

The other party plans to kill him. Even if the hatred is not very deep on weekdays, this alone is enough to be regarded as a mortal enemy.

However, he had just been promoted, so it seemed inappropriate to act domineering and kill people now.

We can only wait until Yinma Lake comes back.

Or... you can lure Zhao Ancheng into action and then take the opportunity to counterattack.

Soon, Xue Yi returned to Lanyuan.

"Brother Xue Yi, are you not injured?"

"Did things go well? Were you embarrassed?"

"Brother Xue Yi, wipe your sweat!"

The maids gathered around him, and more than a dozen girls were dancing and dancing, which was a pleasure to watch.

Xue Yi was in a good mood and replied with a smile: "It's okay, it went very well. Now I have officially become the personal bodyguard of the eldest lady, and I will live in Lanyuan forever."

"That's good, we're worried about you getting hurt."

"We can be together every day from now on!"

The maids are all very good at pleasing people and saying things that make people feel happy.

Xue Yi rubbed Zidie's little head, pinched Xia Chan's pink cheeks, and said, "Prepare breakfast for me. I'll report the situation to the eldest lady first."

"Okay, Brother Xue Yi, I'll go right away!" Xia Chan and Zidie said almost at the same time.

Compared to others, the two of them were manipulated by Xue Yi more often. They felt that their "opportunities" were greater, and they worked harder to please.

Xue Yi didn't think too much about it, purely because these two girls were the most beautiful, and their appearance was not much inferior to that of the second lady Xu Lingzhi, and they looked more pleasing to the eye.

He entered the house.

The eldest daughter, Xiao Qingruo, was reading as usual, and her image of a diligent scholar remained unchanged.

"Miss, I'm lucky to have lived up to my command!" Xue Yi put down his knife and saluted with his fists in hand.

Xiao Qingruo guessed the result when he saw him returning safely. He glanced at him lightly and asked, "How was the process?"

"process……"

Xue Yi explained the process.

Xiao Qingruo's mouth moved slightly when he heard this: "This He Haoshan, he has a bad mouth." Apparently he was unhappy because of what He Haoshan said: "The personal bodyguard has the opportunity to be the guest of the eldest lady."

"How about I send you an order to deal with him?" Xue Yixiao asked.

Xiao Qingruo shook his head: "Forget it, he is a commander-in-chief after all, one of the big figures in the government. I don't have real power yet, so it would be too domineering to deal with him."

Xue Yi was just joking, knowing that she wouldn't take it seriously.

But in private, he would not be as respectful as he was outside. He joked: "Actually, what the commander-in-chief said is right. Our relationship... maybe one day I will become your husband."

"Just you? Bah, you're daydreaming!" Xiao Qingruo glared at him with disgust and moved his chair, as if he would be stained by his breath if he got too close to him.

Xue Yi sat down, picked up the teacup and poured himself a glass of water.

"Don't use my stuff. If you want to drink water, bring your own cup!" Xiao Qingruo disliked him even more.

Everything in this room was originally for her use alone, but Xue Yi snatched half of it for her as soon as he came. It was really abominable!

Xue Yi was relaxed and at ease, as if he were at home, and said with a slight smile: "Why are you doing this outside? Aren't we two people in the same boat?"

Then he asked her: "I have passed the assessment. Should we leave tomorrow or wait?"

Xiao Qingruo took away the other cup and put it away, intending to stop drinking from the cup he had not touched.

He responded: "Late may change, it's better to go sooner rather than later. Let's set off this afternoon."

"Ah? In the afternoon, so urgent?" Xue Yi was stunned.

Xiao Qingruo said: "My work style has always been vigorous and resolute. The reason for staying these two days longer is because you have to take the assessment. Now that your affairs are over, you should naturally set off immediately. And the matter cannot be delayed too late. According to my personality, the point of Yinma Lake is It’s a small matter, I have to come back before dark the day after tomorrow at the latest.”

"this……"

Xue Yi made a rough calculation.

We set out in the afternoon and traveled 500 miles. It’s not like we didn’t sleep at night. We definitely won’t arrive until after noon tomorrow.

We won't arrive until tomorrow afternoon, and we will return home in the evening the day after tomorrow. This means that we only have half an afternoon to kill the bandits, and then have some sleep. We will have to leave before dawn the next day.

It's a rush!

"Can you bear the rush of traveling in such a hurry?" He himself had no problem, but he was mainly worried that the eldest lady was too fragile to bear the bumps of the carriage and horses.

Xiao Qingruo said calmly: "What's so overwhelming? Do you think I'm a little maid who can't tie a chicken?"

"Do you have the power to tie a chicken?" Xue Yi expressed doubts.

"snort……"

Xiao Qingruo raised her delicate chin: "I'm just weak, but my physical fitness is good."

"Oh~"

Xue Yi was thoughtful and quickly thought of something. He nodded and said, "No wonder it lasted so long the day before yesterday."
