The Playboy Bodyguard of the Beautiful CEO

Seeing the change in the woman's face, Yang Tian understood immediately; clearly, this woman must have escaped from Ling Manor, as there was a weak Martial Artist's aura within her, indicating she was likely a disciple from Ling Manor.

It was unclear why she needed to escape.

However, it was evident the martial artists from Ling Manor had pursued her, and if Yang Tian did not intervene, this woman would be in trouble.

He said in a deep voice, "The people from Ling Manor have arrived, be honest with me, what exactly is your relationship with Ling Manor, and I will help you deal with these martial artists who are chasing you!"

Hearing Yang Tian's words, the woman hesitated for a moment, but finally, she cautiously asked, "Your embrace is very warm, are you a martial artist?"

"Indeed, I am a martial artist, and even the Sect Leader of Ling Manor is no match for me, you can rest assured..."

Yang Tian replied calmly.

That simple statement completely put the panicked woman at ease; she looked at Yang Tian seriously, finally nodding and saying, "I truly did escape from Ling Manor. Four years ago, I was selected and sent to Ling Manor for training. It took me four years just to break through to the early stage of the Body Tempering Realm. However, during a recent talent assessment, I was deemed unfit for cultivation, so they wanted to execute me. I was scared and fled..."

"I didn't dare to escape far, so I hid in Yike Manor, and I've been here for two weeks now. It's dangerous, but also safe!"

"During these two weeks, they searched all around but didn't check Yike Manor. I didn't expect them to discover me now..."

Hearing the woman's words, Yang Tian nodded: "So, you were being groomed to be an assassin or something in Ling Manor? Do you know Xiaodan?"

Xiaodan was also a female assassin trained by Ling Manor.

"Of course I know her..." The woman nodded heavily, "She's our elder sister; she completed her training years ago."

"Alright, I know everything about your situation."

Yang Tian quickly grasped the woman's identity, and as the martial artists who had pursued from Ling Manor arrived, not wanting to reveal his own identity, he used Spiritual Breath to change his appearance slightly. When the woman noticed, Yang Tian had already transformed as if into another person, startling her into stepping back instinctively. Yet upon realizing the man before her was indeed Yang Tian, she calmed down significantly.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

A series of loud noises erupted, and soon over a dozen men and women landed in the courtyard, accompanied by a sinister voice: "Xiaofang, come out, you can't escape!"

Beside him, the woman's face turned pale, "My master is here... He's a very brutal person..."

Yang Tian activated Spiritual Breath and gently patted the woman's shoulder. Instantly, she calmed down markedly, and Yang Tian said casually, "Let's go and see who these people are, so brazen despite their low cultivation?"

Yang Tian then led the woman Xiaofang out of the room, while Murong Yinghao and He Jie were still entertaining themselves with their female partners, so Yang Tian didn't want them to take notice. Therefore, he used Spiritual Breath to enclose the courtyard, ensuring no one paid attention to the situation there.

"What's going on? I seem to sense a wave of Spiritual Breath..."

Among the dozen men and women, an exclamation burst forth.

But the strongest among them was merely at the early Nascent Soul Realm, and the rest were nothing but trash martial artists; how could they detect Yang Tian's enveloping Spiritual Breath when facing a Half-Immortal Realm expert?

"Old Three, what are you talking about? What Spiritual Breath, why can't we sense it?"

The elder immediately rebuked.

Old Three awkwardly replied, "I must have sensed it wrong..."

How could Yang Tian's Spiritual Breath be noticed by these people?

As Yang Tian appeared with Xiaofang, over a dozen pairs of eyes fixated on them. They paused on Yang Tian, unable to sense any aura of a martial artist, then shifted their gaze to Xiaofang: "Xiaofang, have you come here to serve as a maid?"

In their minds, Yang Tian was merely a tourist since there was no aura of Spiritual Breath around him.

And Xiaofang seemed to come here as a maid.

Xiaofang glanced at Yang Tian, hesitating without speaking. By instinct, she believed the young man before her must be a martial artist, even a formidable one—this explained why she had rested gently on his chest like a tame rabbit upon meeting him. Yet neither the elder nor she herself could detect any aura of Spiritual Breath emanating from Yang Tian.

Thus, Xiaofang hesitated about what to say.

"Who are you? Why are you looking for Xiaofang here? Let me tell you, she is already my maid, and I plan to leave here with her!"

Yang Tian spoke, feigning being a guest.

"Kid, this girl is one of us, it's none of your business here, now get lost!"

Amid the group, a man spoke, casting two Spirit Blades of Spiritual Breath with resounding cracks against the pillar beside Yang Tian, attempting to warn him and just make him leave, unaware of the dreadful existence before him!

Yang Tian acted terrified: "Who are you... Why can you unleash such terrifying blades... I will call the police now..."

Speaking thus, Yang Tian pulled out his phone, pretending to call the police.

Seeing his behavior, the crowd burst into laughter. The man extended his hand, attempting to snatch Yang Tian's phone through space.

"What are you doing..."

Yang Tian feigned terror, but infused Spiritual Breath into the phone, causing it to explode with a bang in the man's hand, killing him instantly.

"Ah..."

The crowd was stunned, frozen in place, before exclaiming: "What's going on? Wu actually got killed by a phone explosion? Could this kid have tampered with it?"

Saying so, they looked sharply at Yang Tian, but despite probing him with Divine Sense, they couldn't detect any aura of Spiritual Breath, leading to their confusion: "This kid is just a normal person, who killed Wu? Could it be his uncontrolled Spiritual Breath surged into the phone, causing it to explode and kill himself?"

Hearing this, Xiaofang's eyes lit up. Seeing Yang Tian's pale face, pretending to know nothing, she chuckled inwardly: evidently, this Yang Tian is a master!
