After entering Qin Yi's residence, Lu Yuankai didn't sit down immediately. Instead, he scanned the surroundings with his gaze.
Even though he couldn't find any clues in front of him, he still didn't give up and used his divine sense to scan the surroundings again. Only when he was completely sure that there were no problems did he finally sit down.
Seeing the other party's calm appearance, Qin Yi couldn't help but sneer in his heart. However, there wasn't the slightest hint of mockery on his face.
He immediately walked to Lu Yuankai's side and asked, "May I know what business Sect Master has with me today?"
Lu Yuankai turned his face towards Qin Yi and said, "You've been promoted to a personal disciple for a period of time. As the Sect Master, I've never come here to visit you. Since I'm free today, I came here to take a look. "
Qin Yi laughed coldly in his heart. He didn't think that the other party would actually use such an excuse. However, since the other party was the Sect Master, he could of course go wherever he wanted in the Brushing Willow Sect. Even if he randomly found an excuse, no one would dare to object.
At that moment, Qin Yi also hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "Sect Master has a myriad of affairs to attend to every day and specially thought of Qin Mo. It's enough to show how much importance Sect Master places on me! To be honest, this disciple really feels a little overwhelmed by the favor. "
"You don't need to say such words in the future."
Lu Yuankai waved his hand and said, "During the sect's disciple test, you suppressed everyone and became first in the test. This means that you're a disciple with considerable strength and potential at the same time. This seat also admires you greatly. My concern for you is also within reason. I hope that you can do more useful things in the future and don't let me down! "
Was this a threat?
This was the first thought that flashed through Qin Yi's mind when he heard this. At that moment, he also smiled faintly and said, "Sect Master, don't worry. This disciple definitely won't let you and the others down."
"That's good."
Lu Yuankai didn't seem to hear the other meaning in Qin Yi's words and immediately said, "Oh right, regarding the matter of this seat's treasure being stolen last time, did my insensible subordinates cause any trouble for you?"
"Finally, we're talking about the main topic!"
The corners of Qin Yi's mouth curled up slightly, and he hurriedly said, "No! This disciple knows that these people are working for the Sect Master, so this disciple should cooperate. Moreover, isn't this giving this disciple a chance to prove my innocence? "
"I am very gratified that you can say such words."
Lu Yuankai nodded slightly and said, "Actually, these were all arranged by my subordinates on their own initiative. In my eyes, your loyalty to the sect is still trustworthy. "
Qin Yi quickly said, "Thank you for your trust, Sovereign."
Lv Yuankai sighed and said, "It's just that I haven't found my treasure yet. During this period of time, this matter has exhausted me both mentally and physically. "
Qin Yi said, "A treasure that can make Sovereign so concerned about it must be something extraordinary, right? This disciple doesn't understand what kind of ability the thief has to be able to steal the sect master's treasure right under his nose. "
A trace of coldness suddenly flashed across Lv Yuankai's eyes when he heard this. Evidently, this matter had already become a humiliation in his heart!
However, his expression returned to normal very quickly. He then waved his hand and said, "That's not important anymore. I feel that the most important thing now is to find my treasure as soon as possible."
After a pause, his gaze on Qin Yi suddenly flashed with a sharp glint as he asked, "I've heard that you're a very smart person. Help me think about it. If you were a thief, where would you hide the treasure?"
As he spoke, Lv Yuankai's body gradually emitted a pressure. After all, he was the strongest person in the entire Brushing Willow Sect. His cultivation base had already surpassed the half-step Arcana Realm!
The pressure emitted from his body was rather terrifying. Even Qin Yi found it a little difficult to endure.
However, even so, Qin Yi's face didn't show the slightest hint of pain. He chuckled and said, "Sect Master must be joking. I'm just a little clever. How can I compare to your great wisdom? If even you can't figure out the reason, how can I figure it out? "
The corners of Lv Yuankai's mouth curled up slightly as he said, "Qin Yi, in my impression, you're not someone who likes to flatter others. How long has it been? How did you learn this too? "
Qin Yi's heart sank. It was obvious that the other party was forcing him to answer this question today. Otherwise, it was very likely that the other party would make things difficult for him!
He immediately rolled his eyes and said, "Since the treasure is in my hands, I naturally want to get rid of it as soon as possible. After all, this thing is a hot potato. I don't think anyone would want to keep it by their side, right? However, given the sect master's reaction speed, the other party shouldn't have had time to get rid of it, right? Therefore, could the thief be carrying it with him and looking for an opportunity to get rid of it? "
His voice had just faded when Qin Yi felt the pressure exerted on him suddenly disappear cleanly.
Lv Yuankai looked at Qin Yi faintly, his gaze deep. No one knew what he was thinking in his heart.
After a long time, he finally opened his mouth and said, "You're right! I think I've been neglecting some places all along. That's why I let this thief get away scot-free for so long in front of me! "
Done talking, he suddenly snapped his fingers. Immediately after, a slender figure suddenly appeared beside him.
"Sect Master."
After appearing, Ye Liang saluted Lv Yuankai very respectfully.
"This seat has some matters to deal with. You replace me here and have a good chat with Qin Yi."
Lv Yuankai suddenly stood up and said indifferently, "Qin Yi, I still have to thank you for giving this seat a good idea this time. Perhaps, this thief will not be able to hide anymore very soon and will reveal his true colors. "
Qin Yi smiled and nodded, but he already started to panic in his heart. "Looks like he already suspects the Liu residence! Now, he definitely wants to keep me here, and then go to the Liu residence to capture the person! "
If he showed any hint of panic now, most likely the other party did not need to go over and would directly capture him as an ordinary person.
But if he really did not do anything at all and let the other party go over like this, he would probably be exposed very soon!
