After leaving, Qin Yi didn't return to his room. Instead, he walked towards the academy's transportation array.
But even if he stepped on the transportation array, he had no intention of going to the Xiao Family.
The transportation array flashed, bringing Qin Yi to Cangwu City.
This was where the Guo Family's headquarters was located. Obviously, Qin Yi was going to make a trip to the Guo Family before going to the Xiao Family.
After entering the Guo Family, even the Guo Family's attitude towards him had changed drastically.
Previously, Qin Yi was considered a guest staying in the Guo Family. Although everyone's attitude towards him wasn't bad, it wasn't to this extent.
Along the way, almost everyone who saw him had to smile and bow to him to show their respect!
To be honest, his relationship with the Guo Family was pretty good. Seeing these people treat him like this, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Of course, he knew that these people were treating him respectfully because he had become a core disciple under Elder Di Ruolin. His status wasn't as high as before, and their respect towards him was respect towards the academy behind him. But this kind of attitude was definitely not the way to treat a friend.
But regarding this, Qin Yi didn't say much. He didn't come here to bicker with these people.
Soon, he arrived at the Guo Family's conference hall.
Guo Yingzhuo, who had long heard the announcement, was already waiting outside the door. What surprised Qin Yi was that the Gu Family's Patriarch, Tao Nianyan, was also standing beside him.
"Mister Qin, I really didn't expect you to come today!"
Guo Yingzhuo's attitude didn't change much. Clearly, he was still very happy to see Qin Yi, "How has everyone been recently?"
Qin Yi nodded and said, "Everything is fine, Patriarch Guo need not worry too much."
He also knew that the other party had asked this question to inquire about Guo Yongyi and Guo Yongdao's situation.
After all, these two were his son and clansmen, it was understandable for him to be overly concerned about them.
"That's good, I was still worried that everyone wouldn't be used to living in the academy!"
Guo Yingzhuo heaved a sigh of relief, and his mood also became much more relaxed.
"Patriarch Guo, it's rare for Little Brother Qin to come back. Why? Are you going to receive him outside this door? "
Hearing Tao Nianyan's reminder, Guo Yingzhuo finally recovered from his shock. He smiled awkwardly and quickly said, "Please forgive me for my negligence. Please come in and take a seat!"
Soon, the group arrived at the hall and sat down.
"Little Brother Qin, you're doing well in the academy. Why are you here?"
Tao Nianyan's personality was more direct. She immediately asked about Qin Yi's purpose.
Qin Yi glanced at her and replied with a smile, "Qin Mo has come for whatever Patriarch Tao has come for."
Hearing this, Guo Yingzhuo and Tao Nianyan's expressions changed.
"Mr. Qin, have you also heard about the Xiao family?"
Clearly, Guo Yingzhuo and Tao Nianyan had gathered together because of the Xiao Family.
Qin Yi smiled noncommittally, then asked, "The reason why I didn't rush to the Xiao Family directly is because I want to know some information about the Xiao Family from you."
He had just come from the academy. If he rushed to the Xiao Family without knowing any details, it would be very difficult to take the initiative.
Even though he had been appointed as the academy's special envoy, he was still a young junior after all. It was another matter whether the others paid attention to him or not! He couldn't really let the academy's experts come over to deal with anyone he didn't like, right?
"Ai!" Guo Yingzhuo sighed and said, "The situation isn't optimistic!"
Qin Yi frowned slightly and asked, "What exactly is the situation?"
"Let me tell you!"
Tao Nianyan took over and told Qin Yi about the matter.
Xiao Luo was killed last night, but from the time he was killed to the time he was discovered, it took an entire night!
In other words, the other party had snuck into the Xiao Family without a sound, killed Xiao Luo, and then disappeared without a trace without a sound!
Most importantly, even though it was an assassination, to be able to kill Xiao Luo silently under such circumstances wasn't something an ordinary person could do.
Therefore, after the Xiao Family discovered Xiao Luo's corpse, they immediately pointed the spearhead at the other seven families.
But very quickly, they narrowed down the scope and determined that Xiao Luo was killed by the Guo and Gu Families.
And this judgment was quickly recognized by the other families.
Now, there were already many families standing on the Xiao Family's side, ready to demand an explanation from the Guo and Gu Families.
To be honest, the current situation was quite disadvantageous to the two families.
Although everyone knew that this was the lowest level of framing.
After all, there was no evidence to prove that Xiao Luo was killed by either of the two families.
But they did this to suppress the Guo and Gu Families.
After all, these two families had already formed an alliance, and the power of the two families had been rising recently.
Without a doubt, the other families definitely wouldn't sit idly by and let these two families continue to develop like this.
Xiao Luo's death was just an excuse.
Even if they didn't have this excuse, the other families would probably use other excuses to cause trouble for them.
Now that the other party had found a reason, it was obvious that they wouldn't let the matter rest.
"I came here today to discuss countermeasures with Family Head Guo."
Tao Nianyan shook her head and said helplessly, "At this time, if we don't come up with some ideas, I'm afraid we'll really be in danger."
Actually, the Gu Family was still relatively safe for the time being. Their main worry was the weaker Guo Family.
After all, if the Gu Family couldn't even take care of themselves, it would be difficult for them to take care of the Guo Family.
And as the weakest family among the eight great families, the Guo Family was very likely to become the target of the other families' attacks.
At that time, if the other party really made a move, the Guo Family would really be in danger.
And once the Guo Family was eliminated, the Gu Family would be left alone. At that time, it would be difficult for them to escape the calamity.
So no matter what, they had to resolve this crisis. Otherwise, it wouldn't be good for either the Guo Family or the Gu Family!
"I have a general understanding of the situation."
Qin Yi was relatively calm at this moment. He smiled slightly and said, "We'll talk about the specifics after we go to the Xiao Family."
"To the Xiao Family?"
