This time, when they returned, Qin Yi and Guo Yingzhuo both sped up.
The journey that would have taken two days was shortened to one and a half days.
After resting for a day at his residence, Qin Yi went to Guo Yingzhuo's place again. The two of them began to discuss countermeasures.
In fact, in Guo Yingzhuo's opinion, this was just a conversation. Although the person they were talking to was different, it was still a conversation. Hence, there was no need to worry too much.
Qin Yi was not worried. He just felt that they should make more preparations to avoid being too passive when the time came. Under his request, Guo Yingzhuo agreed to inform the elders in the family about this.
Although Guo Yingzhuo was the family leader, in terms of strength, he was no match for those old monsters. As long as they kept an eye on the changes here, their safety would be guaranteed.
As for Qin Yi himself, he also made some preparations. He still had hundreds of God Slayer Thunder. If he was really in a desperate situation, he could use the God Slayer Thunder to deal a fatal blow.
In addition, he still had a treasure like the Palace of Gloom. Although it had not been used for a long time, it was undeniable that the Palace of Gloom was still his best weapon. Currently, the Palace of Gloom was still the best weapon he could use to entangle and kill his enemies.
At his current level, activating all 64 killing formations was no longer a problem. Given the current power of the Palace of Gloom, even if Guo Yingzhuo went in, it would be impossible for him to come out unscathed. He could still use it to deal with those three people.
Most importantly, he still had divine weapons like Emperor Xi's Bell and the Five Thunder Dragon Bone Sword in his hands. These could give him the greatest guarantee of his life. Even if he couldn't deal with them, he could still buy some time and let the group of elders deal with them.
After confirming that everything was almost ready, Qin Yi finally returned to his room.
Although the time for the meeting was getting closer and closer, he had completely calmed down. After taking a deep breath, he closed his eyes and began his cultivation for the day.
…
Early the next day, the family leaders of the Xuanyuan Family, the Shi Family, and the Gu Family arrived just in time.
It could be seen that they attached great importance to this meeting with Qin Yi. After inviting them in, Qin Yi also came to the lobby, sat opposite them, and began to size each other up.
The patriarch of the Xuanyuan family and the patriarch of the Shi family still had cold looks on their faces. At the same time, a faint pressure was released. Although it was not offensive, it was very intimidating.
Amongst the three of them, only Tao Nianyan had a smile on her face that was enough to make one's heart skip a beat. She stared at Qin Yi in a rather friendly manner.
Qin Yi, on the other hand, was rather calm. He didn't show any signs of being tempted, nor was he panicked or impatient. He just sat there quietly, waiting for the other party to speak.
Tao Nianyan originally had the same thoughts as Qin Yi. After all, in a conversation between the two of them, whoever spoke first would be the one to fall into silence.
Unfortunately, the youth sitting opposite her seemed to be well aware of this principle and didn't have any intention of taking the initiative to speak, and he seemed to be extremely composed.
Seeing the other party like this, Tao Nianyan also didn't continue to be in a deadlock with the other party. After all, they were guests, and they couldn't just sit here and remain silent, right?
"Little brother Qin, after our last parting, I believe you should have done some research on us."
Tao Nianyan lightly covered her mouth and chuckled. "Since you know our background, then you should know that everything we do is for the sake of our family. This time, we came to find you."
Qin Yi asked calmly, "Your three families are the top families of the eight great families of the Human Race. Qin Mo is only in his twenties, so I don't understand why you're so interested in me. "
"Of course, we're looking for you because you have something on you that we want."
Tao Nianyan didn't beat around the bush and said, "Of course, that thing isn't really something. To put it bluntly, it's your talent in the Dao of Alchemy! We would like to hire you to be our family's alchemists. "
Qin Yi furrowed his brows and looked at the three of them. He then teased, "What? Is the relationship between your three families good enough to share resources? Let me be the alchemist of your three clans. "
Tao Nianyan smiled, then shook her head. "Although the three of us came together, it's just that we're traveling together. The reason why we came together is because we want to compete fairly. You can choose to work for one of us, and we'll give you what you want. "
Qin Yi chuckled. "This is a fair competition, but why does it seem to Qin Mo that you're trying to force me into a dead end? If I choose any one of the three, the other two will be jealous of me. Then, two of you will take revenge on me. Since that's the case, why bother? I think it's better for me to reject all of them. "
"You don't have to worry about that. Before we came, our three families already made an agreement that no matter which family you choose, the other two families can't use this reason to attack you."
"Is that so?"
Qin Yi smiled leisurely, and then said indifferently: "Everyone is a martial artist, especially you guys. You have already sat in this position, how could you still care about something like an agreement? For the sake of my life, I feel that choosing none of them is the best choice. "
At this moment, the head of the Xuan Yuan Family, who had been silent all this time, turned to look at Qin Yi. "Do you know that if you don't choose anyone, you'll be offending all three families? Don't think that you can save your life just because you've planted a few old geezers outside. As long as I want to, you'll be dead before they can come to save you. "
Qin Yi raised his eyelids and looked at the Xuanyuan family's master. "The Xuanyuan family is truly worthy of being the number one family. Your words and actions are truly domineering. However, even if you have the confidence to kill me, I also have the confidence to survive. "
"Hmph! Shameless boasting! "
