Urban Ace Bodyguard

Chapter 1191 - 1260: Marrying Both Daughters

"Congratulations, congratulations!"The Ghost Master sincerely spoke.

Lin Hai opened his eyes, the sharp brilliance in his eyes gradually receding, not disappearing, but hiding deeper, where ordinary people could no longer see it.

At this moment, even in a state of full power, as long as Lin Hai didn't want to, not even a Supreme Strong could detect his strength.

"This is a kind of spiritual transcendence."

Lin Hai felt his heart was more stable than before.

Slowly spreading his palm, then clenching it again, he casually threw a punch.

Observing his own technique, Lin Hai felt that this punch seemed casual but contained an indescribable rhythm.

It was precisely this rhythm, or perhaps called artistic conception, that made him thoroughly understand the difference between Legendary and Supreme Strong.

Realm!

The real difference in realm cannot be compensated by strength.

The same punch, due to different realms, results in completely different power and effects.

If it were a normal time, a casual punch from Lin Hai would at most break a big tree in half, but now, even a Supreme Strong facing it, though not killed, would take it seriously.

"Thank you, Ghost Master, for your guidance." Lin Hai raised his hand and said gratefully.

The Ghost Master waved his hand with a smile, casually saying, "I dare not claim credit. It's your own effort that made you succeed in becoming Legendary."

"I must remember your kindness. Without your guidance, I wouldn't have stepped into Legendary." Lin Hai said earnestly and seriously.

"Not bad, loyal and righteous. It's funny that some people said you're just lewd and lustful recently. People are ignorant, only seeing the surface, never caring about the inner person." After finishing, the Ghost Master looked at Lin Hai more pleasingly.

"Oh? Who said I'm lewd?" Lin Hai blinked his eyes.

When the hell did anyone say bad things about me that even reached the Ghost Master's ears?

"Haha, it's a few shortsighted officials who wanted me to eliminate you for the benefit of the people." The Ghost Master answered with a smile.

Lin Hai's eyes widened, what the hell? When did I become so hated?

"Someone said you're uneducated, relying on your relationship with the Demon Young Master to cause chaos in Yanjing. Unfortunately, those few small fries don't know your dual identities as Super Young Master and Lin Renwang's son, yet want to play tricks on me." The Ghost Master explained, noticing Lin Hai's curiosity.

"I wonder who wants to deal with me?" Lin Hai grasped the key and asked.

"It's the sons of a few insignificant officials, who mean nothing in my eyes. If I hadn't mellowed over the years, daring to scheme against my half-son-in-law, they would've been crippled by now."

Xia Xiaopao had arrived here without anyone knowing when.

"Oh? I don't recall offending those officials' sons." Lin Hai's eyes widened, puzzled.

"You didn't offend the officials' sons, but you offended their friends." Xia Xiaopao explained with a smile, secretly amazed by Lin Hai's talent, thinking that entering the Legendary realm at such an age could probably rival that Strong Young Master from the Xuanyuan Family.

"Officials' sons?"

Lin Hai carefully pondered, unable to remember offending any officials' sons.

"Haha, seems like you've offended too many people to keep track of, let me remind you." Xia Xiaopao continued, "Did you recently offend the Eight Dog Legs?"

"Eight Dog Legs? What the heck is that?"

Lin Hai was even more confused.

"He's quite a figure among the top four underworld forces in Yanjing, commonly known as the Eighth Prince on the streets."

"But in my eyes, he's just an insignificant lackey."

Upon hearing Xia Xiaopao's answer, Lin Hai suddenly realized.

The clue regarding the killing of the Hell Priest was obtained from the Eighth Prince's little follower, Brother Hui.

Apparently, Brother Hui found the Eighth Prince to complain, and the Eighth Prince, unaware of Lin Hai's background, wanted to play a trick, targeting him.

"You should be able to figure out the rest of it, right?"

"That Eighth Prince must have found the officials' kids sheltering him as a cover, and those officials' kids might've discovered your close relation with the Demon Young Master, thus wanting to leverage their fathers' connections to use the Ghost Master against you, causing no offense to the Demon Young Master while making the Ghost Master bear all the blame."

Xia Xiaopao said this, a tone full of disdain, clearly looking down on those officials' kids.

A person like him has experienced a lifetime of ups and downs; if he didn't understand all sorts of schemes, it'd be a waste living to a dog's age, though such a person had a personality disdaining schemes entirely.

"Pretty much matches my speculation." Lin Hai nodded in response.

"Half-son-in-law, what do you plan to do next?" Xia Xiaopao asked with a knowing smile.

Lin Hai smiled, realizing that Vice Chief Xia wanted to see his method of handling affairs and his intelligence level.

"If the opponent is hard to deal with, I will strategize to counterattack."

"If it's someone like the Eighth Prince, I don't think there's a need for too much hassle, straightforward and direct is better."

Hearing Lin Hai's answer, Xia Xiaopao frowned unsatisfied: "That's it?"

"There's more, but I'm not saying." Lin Hai chuckled, a grin curving his lips.

"Hmph, don't think I can't tell, your eyes flickered just now, clearly planning to take over the Eighth Prince's forces after crushing him, am I right?" Xia Xiaopao asked.

Lin Hai's eyes widened in extreme surprise.

His skill at disguising his thoughts was already extraordinary, how did the elder Vice Chief Xia see through it?

"Hmph, young man, you're still a bit green." Xia Xiaopao showed an inscrutable expression.

"Since you saw through, does half-father-in-law agree with this approach?" Lin Hai tentatively asked.

After all, if the Vice Chief of the Inner Palace supported him, even if the Emperor wanted to leverage the Yanhuang Soul's power against him, they'd have to reconsider.

The Inner Palace and the Yanhuang Soul, while both guarding Huaxia, are entirely different departments.

"You do as you please; it has nothing to do with me. Also, remove the half-father-in-law title, I don't like things dragging on, either a father-in-law or forget it."

Lin Hai smacked his lips, asking weakly, "Then, Father-in-law, should I marry Chuqing or Chuxin?"

"Of course, marry the one you like!" Xia Xiaopao replied.

"What if I like both?" Lin Hai grinned, rubbing his hands with a greedy expression.

"Hmph, that also depends on which of my daughters likes you." Xia Xiaopao was displeased.

"But, both of your daughters like me. Chuxin expresses it directly, being straightforward in character, while Chuqing has a secret crush, more subtle, so..." Lin Hai rubbed his hands bigger, revealing a sly grin.

Xia Xiaopao's face turned livid: "Kid, you better handle the Eighth Prince's matter quickly, hmph!"

"And, if you want to make a move on my daughters, you first have to get past me. I've been in the Legendary realm for years, nearing the strength of a Half-step Immortal, and I'd love to spar with you, the young prodigy, on the Martial Path!"

With that, Xia Xiaopao's fist rubbed vigorously, emitting a hair-raising sound of joints colliding.
