Chapter 2461: Chapter 2458-slightly regretful

How could Lin Yi not tell? Xinyan, however, didn’t think too much about it at a time like this. She was overjoyed to hear that Zhaolong was offering this as a bargaining chip.”Lin Yi, you’ll agree to his request?”

Lin Yi looked at Xinyan, who was full of anticipation, and his heart skipped a beat. Xinyan’s intentions were clear-she’d already betrayed her thoughts with her words!

But Lin Yi didn’t understand why Xinyan was so concerned about her engagement with Zhaolong. Logically speaking, it was not a big deal to break off the engagement, right?

“Alright!” He didn’t want to disappoint Xinyan, however. As for Zhaolong, he wouldn’t just leave him be. They were classmates, after all, and he wouldn’t do it this way even if he wanted to.

A student dying during a winter vacation wasn’t a good thing for boss Bai, and Lin Yi wouldn’t make things difficult for him.

And so, Lin Yi reached out his right hand and pulled Xinyan into his embrace, putting her on his chest!

“Ah …” Xinyan didn’t expect Lin Yi to hug her all of a sudden. She lowered her head shyly, her heart beating fast. She didn’t dare to look up at Lin Yi and Zhaolong!

Of course, Lin Yi didn’t notice Xinyan’s situation at the moment. His other left hand was holding onto Zhaolong, who was running behind him!

As for Zhaolong, even if Lin Yi had to save him, he wouldn’t let him have an easy time.

Zhaolong was relieved when Lin Yi stopped him, but the next moment, something cruel happened!

Lin Yi picked up speed after pulling Zhaolong. Xinyan was in Lin Yi’s arms, so she wasn’t affected, but Zhaolong was unlucky. He couldn’t keep up with Lin Yi’s speed, and he fell on his butt as Lin Yi dragged him forward. The ground was smooth and covered in snow, but Zhaolong’s butt still hit the rocks in the snow!

After all, no matter how smooth the ground was, it was impossible for it to be free of debris. Zhaolong was in trouble when he ran into the debris!

Zhaolong’s screams were especially terrifying in the valley. Soon, his butt was covered in cuts from the rocks on the ground. The Golden creation miracle doctor Kang applied had almost healed his previous wounds, but the rocks made him even more injured.

Although Zhaolong was in a lot of pain, he knew that Lin Yi was trying to set him up. If Lin Yi could hold Xinyan, then he could hold Zhaolong as well! After all, Lin Yi was a practitioner.

But Lin Yi didn’t hug him, he pulled him, and that was already good enough. Zhaolong was afraid that Lin Yi would leave him alone, so he endured it. When he couldn’t take it anymore, he looked at the turtle chasing him and remembered the Ninja Turtle, so he endured it.

Gradually, Lin Yi’s speed pulled away from the turtle. Lin Yi’s Qinggong was great, and without Xinyan and Zhaolong holding him back, he didn’t have to worry about the turtle catching up to him.

The turtle let out an angry roar as it watched Lin Yi and the others go further away. It knew that it couldn’t catch up to them. When it saw Lin Yi holding one and pulling the other, it knew that it had to give up. There were practitioners here, and it couldn’t gain any advantage!

Lin Yi’s guess was right-the turtle’s ability was in defense, not offense. Even if Lin Yi was a Sky Class master, he couldn’t do anything to the turtle, but the turtle couldn’t catch up to him either.

Helplessly, it could only suffer in silence! It wasn’t that it didn’t have the turtle ice crystals. It did have some, but they were very precious. It would take the turtle decades to make such a small bottle. It was the crystallization of its own strength. It wasn’t very useful to the turtle, but it was very useful to the little turtle. The little turtle could use it to cultivate!

The big turtle still had some in stock, but it didn’t want to give something so precious to Lin Yi so easily. It could help the little turtle increase its strength, but it couldn’t get it back anymore.

“Don’t let me see you guys again!” The big turtle roared and said helplessly.

Lin Yi heard the turtle’s roar and tensed up for no reason. It was a sign of guilt-he did steal the turtle ice crystal, after all, and technically, Zhaolong was the scapegoat!

Zhaolong might be the one who caused the trouble, but he was the one who got the bottle back, too. Lin Yi was grateful to him, and that was why he didn’t leave him behind.

“Lin Yi … Can you let me go now … The giant water monster isn’t chasing us anymore, my ass …” Zhaolong almost cried from the pain. It didn’t feel like his ass was his anymore.

“Oh.” Lin Yi, who was still running, let go of Zhaolong’s hand when he heard his words. Zhaolong’s upper body leaned backward from the inertia, and the back of his head hit the blood bag. He gritted his teeth in pain!

“Lin Yi, you’re doing this on purpose, right?” Zhaolong said as he got up from the ground, glaring at Lin Yi.

“You asked me to let you go.” Lin Yi said nonchalantly.

“…” Zhaolong’s anger was released. Lin Yi was his Savior, after all, and he wasn’t that ungrateful. However, the more he looked at Xinyan in Lin Yi’s arms, the angrier he got!

It was just that Zhaolong had just promised that he’d turn a blind eye to Lin Yi and Xinyan’s relationship, and he wouldn’t pursue it. He was going to go back on his word, but it hadn’t been that long, and he didn’t have the cheek to deny it.

“Lin Yi … Can you put me down now …” Wang Xinyan’s heart was beating fast the whole way, but she was relieved that they were running for their lives. Now that they were safe, she was a little embarrassed.

“Alright,” he said. Lin Yi let go of Xinyan, not because he wanted to take advantage of her, but because he really did forget that she was in his arms. He couldn’t help but feel a little regretful-he’d put all his thoughts on running and thinking about the ice crystal, and he’d forgotten about the beauty in his arms. He only came back to his senses after Xinyan’s reminder-he didn’t think about taking advantage of her, even if it was training while running. (To be continued.)
