"Let's go back."
Qin Yi really didn't want to say much to Qin Da. The fellow had always been used to doing things his own way. Even if Qin Da tried to persuade him or beg him, it wouldn't be of much use.
What's more, he had already given the necessary warning. If it happened again, he would punish him.
The two turned and continued on their way to House Donglin's manor.
With Qin Da by his side, Qin Yi's safety on the road was much higher.
Qin Da was a great monster spirit. His realm might not be high, but once he revealed his true form, he'd be a force to be reckoned with.
When they returned, Qin Yi didn't cultivate that night. Instead, he called Yun Die 'er and the others over and briefed them on the events of the past few days. He also told them that they'd be leaving for the Brushing Willow Sect soon.
Excitement grew on their faces when they heard this, and they all began to make preparations.
… …
The next morning.
Before Qin Yi and the others had rested enough, an urgent voice came from outside. "Young master Qin, an honored guest from the Brushing Willow Sect is waiting in the meeting hall. He requests to see you as soon as possible."
When Qin Yi heard this, he immediately walked out of the room and followed General Manager Long, who was standing outside the door, to the meeting hall.
… …
Donglin Manor's meeting hall.
"Patriarch, the guest has been brought here."
Chief Steward Long took the lead to walk in and said very politely.
Lin Xiao's eyes lit up when he heard this. "Let him in," he said hastily.
Qin Yi appeared in front of the crowd. Looking around, Qin Yi saw Patriarch Lin Xiao and eldest son Lin Dongpeng of House Donglin. Senior brother Cheng was the only one from the Brushing Willow Sect. As for the other two female disciples, he didn't see them.
"Qin Yi, allow me to introduce you." Lin Xiao rose with a smile and pointed at senior brother Cheng. "This is …"
"No need."
Senior brother Cheng stood up before Lin Xiao could finish. "I am Cheng Tianhe, from the Brushing Willow Sect."
As he spoke, senior brother Cheng slightly raised his chin. His tone had also become incomparably arrogant, as if everything before him was not worthy of his respect.
After introducing himself, Cheng Tianhe deliberately paused for a moment, as if he wanted to see Qin Yi's shocked and worshipful expression after hearing about his background.
Unfortunately, Qin Yi's face remained calm, causing him to feel disappointed for the first time in front of an outsider.
He frowned but did not make a fuss about it. Instead, he continued, "Qin Yi, I've been paying attention to the Five Forest City Grand Competition. I have to say, you are indeed a good talent. Although you need to experience and grow in many aspects, it's quite commendable for you to be able to grow to this extent in a place like this. Right now, there is a chance for you to become even stronger. I wonder if you want it? "
Qin Yi smiled. "Senior brother Cheng, are you referring to the Brushing Willow Sect?"
Senior brother Cheng frowned again, a trace of displeasure in his voice. "Since you've already guessed it, don't you think your reaction is a little too calm? Could it be that you look down on the Brushing Willow Sect? "
As he spoke, an enormous oppressive might emanated from his body. Like an endless flood, it mercilessly surged towards Qin Yi.
In the face of such tremendous pressure, Qin Yi's expression did not change at all. He smiled faintly and said, "Qin Mo believes that there is no need to show my joy. To be honest, I am quite interested in the Brushing Willow Sect. "
Senior brother Cheng's expression relaxed slightly, and the pressure on his body completely receded. "To be honest, I didn't think much of you in the beginning. Even yesterday, after your battle with Lin Jue Zong, no, more accurately, after Lin Jue Zong's puppet, I still hesitated. After all, the Brushing Willow Sect is one of the top sects in Jade Willow Country. The strictness with which we select our disciples is unimaginable. "
Qin Yi chuckled. "Then why did senior brother Cheng change his mind?"
Senior brother Cheng's face suddenly darkened when he heard this. It was as if Qin Yi's words had touched upon an extremely unhappy past.
After a moment, he finally said, "You don't need to know the specifics. All you need to know is that in front of you is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If it weren't for your good luck, this good thing wouldn't have happened to you at all. Now, I want to hear your answer. Are you willing to come with me to the Brushing Willow Sect? "
As soon as Senior Brother Cheng said this, Qin Yi could clearly feel that the atmosphere at the scene had become somewhat different.
Whether it was Lin Xiao or Lin Dongpeng, there was a trace of passion in their eyes as they stared at Qin Yi. It was as if they were telling Qin Yi: You must agree!
However, Qin Yi laughed softly and said, "Before Qin Mo accepts, I have a question for senior brother Cheng."
Senior brother Cheng frowned, and a trace of anger flashed across his face. "You really have a lot of requests."
After taking a deep breath, his emotions gradually calmed down. "Ask away."
Qin Yi smiled and asked, "Qin Mo wants to know, if I go to the Brushing Willow Sect, what kind of treatment will I receive?"
Senior brother Cheng answered, "The disciples of the Brushing Willow Sect are divided into four categories. Outer disciples, inner disciples, elite disciples, and personal disciples! Even outer disciples are one-in-a-million geniuses in the outside world, not to mention inner disciples and geniuses above the level of inner disciples. In my opinion, the talent you displayed in the Five Forest City's Grand Competition has already reached the threshold of becoming an inner disciple. "
Hearing this, a trace of disappointment suddenly flashed across Qin Yi's face. He murmured, "Are you saying that if I go to the Brushing Willow Sect, I can only become an inner disciple?"
"What?"
The anger in Senior brother Cheng's chest suddenly burned fiercely. "Looking at you, you don't seem too willing? Don't you know that every inner disciple is a powerful genius that needs to stand out from tens of thousands of outer disciples? Even I am not considered to be particularly outstanding among the inner disciples. As for you, you only have the hope of becoming an inner disciple. Whether you succeed or not will ultimately depend on the final decision of the sect! Now that there is a chance, you should be extremely grateful and excited, and accept without hesitation. "
