The group of people shuttled through the house for a long time before finally stopping in front of a pavilion.
"Elders, Qin Yi and the others have arrived."
Although the door was tightly shut, the guard still bowed meticulously with his hands in front of his chest and greeted the people inside.
Soon, a response came from inside, "Let them in."
As soon as the words were spoken, the tightly shut door slowly opened. Qin Yi and the other two did not think too much and directly walked in.
The moment he stepped through the door, Qin Yi felt no less than 20 gazes directly locking onto him. Among them, there were a few gazes that made him feel very uncomfortable. Obviously, the owners of these gazes were experts among experts.
At this moment, an old man sitting in the middle spoke, "You … are Qin Yi?"
The old man's hair and beard were all white and he was dressed in a green robe. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's and there was not the slightest hint of his age.
Qin Yi cupped his fists in a neither servile nor overbearing manner and replied, "Junior Qin Yi pays his respects to the elders."
The old man nodded and retracted his gaze. He said indifferently, "You are much younger than I imagined, but you are very calm and composed. It seems that you are quite the character. It seems that Attendant Zhu did not lie. "
After these words were spoken, there was no more words. Qin Yi and the others stood calmly on the spot without saying a word. As for the dozen or so elders of the Elder Cabinet, they also did not speak. The hall was instantly plunged into silence. Even the drop of a needle could be heard.
After a long time, the old man in the middle finally spoke again, "You are quite composed. Don't you want to know why we specially called you here?"
Qin Yi chuckled and said, "If you want to say it, you will naturally tell Qin Mo. Why does Qin Mo need to make such an unnecessary move? "
A look of admiration flashed across the old man's eyes. Soon after, he said, "To be honest, if it was in the past, although we old fellows would have to take a look at the newcomers in the building, there has never been such a spectacle. Generally speaking, one or two elders would be enough. But you are different. As the recruitment manager of my Azure Pill Pavilion, Deacon Zhu has always been a steady person, and his words are also very cautious. But when it comes to you, he's not stingy with his praise. He even called you a top genius. Even he feels ashamed of his inferiority. "
At this point, the old man's sharp gaze swept across Qin Yi and the other two. "Therefore, us old fellows are also very interested. Is Deacon Zhu talking nonsense, or do you really have such an ability? In addition, although you've already signed a contract with my Azure Pill House, the specific arrangement of your position still needs to be discussed. This time, I called you here, firstly to test your true level, and secondly to arrange a suitable position for you. "
Qin Yi cupped his fists and expressed his gratitude, "How could this junior have the ability to trouble all the elders? Since Deacon Zhu thinks so highly of me, I will definitely perform well today and not let him down. "
The old man's stern face finally squeezed out a smile. "It's a good thing that young people are confident. In that case … "
"Third Elder, please wait …"
At this moment, a man beside him stood up and interrupted the old man's words.
This person looked much younger. His face was sinister, and a cold glint flickered between his brows.
Being interrupted, the third elder's eyes flashed with displeasure. He immediately asked, "Deacon Jin, what do you have to say?"
Deacon Jin first cupped his fists and apologized for his previous rude behavior. Soon after, he turned to look at Qin Yi and the others, his eyes filled with coldness and cunning. "Although this little brother Qin has an extraordinary bearing, whether he has the ability or not is still debatable. However, I don't quite understand the two behind him. Are they proficient in the Pill Dao, or do they have astonishing talent in the Pill Dao? Especially that brother, based on my observation, this person's aura is vigorous and his palms are rough. He must be someone who specializes in the Martial Dao. "
After a pause, Deacon Jin's face suddenly curled into a mocking smile. "Third Elder, you should know that my Azure Pill House's rule is that we don't keep idle people. If these two don't have any value in contribution, then what reason does my Azure Pill House have to assign them positions and increase my house's expenditure? "
Hearing this, Qin Yi immediately laughed coldly in his heart. "It seems that no matter where I go, there will always be people deliberately looking for trouble. This Deacon Jin is a little strange. I've never met him before. It's only the first time we've met, and no one has said anything. Why is he the first to jump out? "
Although he did not understand, it was not appropriate for him to ask directly.
At that moment, he could only say, "Elders, these two are my friends. We've accompanied each other all the way here and cannot be separated from each other. Previously, I've already explained to Deacon Zhu that these two can be my assistants and accompany me by my side. "
"What a joke!" Hearing this, Deacon Jin laughed coldly and said, "Qin Yi, let's not talk about your current level. Even if you barely manage to enter our eyes, you must start from the bottom in the Azure Pill House. An ordinary alchemist actually wants my Azure Pill House to keep two idle assistants for you? Qin Yi, aren't you being a little too whimsical? "
Qin Yi's gaze turned cold and his voice gradually became impolite. "Although Qin Mo has just arrived and is a little unfamiliar with your Azure Pill House's rules, in my opinion, no matter where one goes, strength is respected. Qin Mo thinks that I have the strength to make your esteemed house keep my two friends. "
Deacon Jin laughed coldly. "It's a good thing for young people to be a little more confident. However, since you need my Azure Pill House to be your guarantor, you must have come from a small place. It was understandable for him to say that. After all, you don't know how high the sky is or how deep the earth is outside. My Azure Pill House produces many talented people. Which one of those chosen to enter the house is not a top-notch alchemist outside? How do you know that your strength will definitely surpass others in my Azure Pill House? "
Qin Yi raised an eyebrow and said unhurriedly, "Although Qin Mo is not talented, I believe that I am stronger than some people who only know how to show off their tongues and deliberately belittle others."
"You!"
Deacon Jin's face instantly turned red and his eyes widened in anger. "What a sharp-tongued junior. If I don't teach you a lesson today, when you enter the Azure Pill House in the future, won't you even look down on the House Master?"
Then, he respectfully bowed down to the Third Elder and said: "I beg for the Third Elder's permission. I want to compete with an ignorant child like you and let him know the consequences of speaking arrogantly!"
