After all, Wang Mai was the young boss of the Qingyang Gang. He had seen many big scenes during his travels in the pugilistic world.
Naturally, he could hear the distance in Qin Yi's tone. What he meant was that he didn't care to get close to him, and wouldn't fall for it.
This made Wang Mai feel a bit annoyed. If this guy was a senior expert from a famous sect, Wang Mai would accept it if he put on airs in front of him.
A wandering cultivator with such an arrogant attitude was undoubtedly insulting the young boss of the Qingyang Gang.
The smile on Wang Mai's face slowly faded as he asked, "Friend, what is your name? Which sect are you from in Qingluo Nation? "
"Young boss, is it?" Qin Yi waved his hand lightly, "I'm just a nobody, and I don't have any respect for the Gods. I'm just one of the countless wandering cultivators on the road. If these five hadn't provoked me, I might have traveled a long way by now. If Young Sect Master doesn't have anything to teach us, then let's all go our separate ways on the road to the sky. "
Qin Yi naturally didn't have the patience to exchange pleasantries.
Wang Mai had rarely suffered such humiliation in his life. These two wandering cultivators didn't give him any face at all. Did they really have some kind of capital?
At the end of the day, he was still the young boss. If he chose to turn hostile in this situation, it would be a huge blow to the Qingyang Gang if he couldn't clean up the mess.
Therefore, Wang Mai took a deep breath and said, "Since you've said so, it would be unreasonable of me to say anything else. Please! "
Qin Yi smiled and said to Jiang Xinyue, "Auntie, let's go."
Auntie?
Jiang Xinyue was stunned. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she still nodded and said, "A few kittens and puppies are delaying our journey."
Dogs and cats?
Hearing this evaluation, the Heroes of Anyang almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Almost unable to suppress the primordial fire in their bodies, they grabbed their weapons and wanted to charge forward. But seeing young boss Wang Mai's cold expression, the five didn't dare to act rashly.
Be it strength or status, they were far inferior to Wang Mai.
Even Wang Mai was being so careful. No matter how stupid they were, they still had some self-awareness.
If it weren't for Wang Mai's presence, the rogue cultivators watching from the sidelines would definitely be cheering loudly. After all, the arrogant behavior of the Heroes of Anyang in the past few days had already caused public anger.
However, as the young master of the Qingyang Gang, Wang Mai was feared by these rogue cultivators, so they could only gloat in their hearts.
However, as they watched Qin Yi and Jiang Xinyue leave, all the rogue cultivators had countless questions in their minds. Obviously, everyone was guessing where this pair of aunt and niece came from.
When the figures of Qin Yi and Jiang Xinyue were far away and the rogue cultivators on the side of the road dispersed, the Five Heroes of Anyang asked, rather unconvinced, "Young Master, where did that guy come from?"
Wang Mai snorted coldly, "You five brothers, it's time for you to open your eyes. The higher-ups want you to think of a way to stop the rogue cultivators from going to White Deer Mountain. Yet here you are, abusing yourselves. If I hadn't arrived in time, the five of you would have been lying on the ground long ago. "
"No way? Is that kid really that strong? "
"Hmph! That person's strength is definitely not weaker than mine. In fact, he might even be stronger than me. With just the few of you, he really wouldn't take you seriously. "
The Five Heroes of Anyang were somewhat embarrassed by Wang Mai's rebuke.
"Young Master, we are also working for the Qingyang Gang. Isn't it a bit too much to strike us down like this?"
"Strike?" Wang Mai sneered. "You fools. The higher-ups have instructed you to do well, but you're stirring up trouble everywhere."
"Young Master, you've wronged us, haven't you? The few of us braved the risk of offending fellow rogue cultivators to run around for the past few days. We've offended and chased away quite a number of people. Even if we don't have any merit, we should at least be grateful for our hard work, right? "
"Hmph! The higher-ups wanted you to think of a way to stop the rogue cultivators from entering White Deer Mountain. You, on the other hand, don't you know how to use your brains other than to abuse your power? How many people can you scare away with your martial prowess? How great can the rogue cultivators be if they can be scared away by your martial prowess? "
These words were merciless, but no matter how ugly the Five Heroes of Anyang looked, they didn't dare to retort.
Wang Mai stared coldly ahead, in the direction where Qin Yi and Jiang Xinyue had disappeared.
"Who the hell are those two who didn't give the Qingyang Gang face?" Wang Mai murmured.
… …
"Qin Yi, aren't we being too high-profile?"
It wasn't that Qin Yi wanted to be high-profile, but Qin Yi couldn't afford to show weakness under these circumstances.
"Xinyue, whether we're high-profile or not, the situation at White Deer Mountain might be more complicated than we thought. There must be more to the Qingyang Gang's inexplicable appearance. "
Jiang Xinyue had always been dismissive of underground gangs like the Qingyang Gang. In the secular world and the world of martial dao, sects were the orthodox.
In the eyes of the orthodox, the so-called gangs were just a gathering of a motley crew. They wouldn't catch the eye of the elite.
During the reign of the Jiang royal family, the Qingyang Gang had been suppressed most of the time and didn't have a particularly strong presence in Azure Luo Nation.
Therefore, she had an instinctive disdain for the Qingyang Gang.
But Qin Yi didn't think so. When an underground gang dared to appear in the open, there were only two reasons. One was that they were strong, and the other was that they'd received the approval of the ruling class.
Qin Yi felt that the Qingyang Gang had both reasons.
"Heroes of Anyang, listen to the Qingyang Gang. Xinyue, have you ever wondered who the Qingyang Gang listens to? The wandering cultivators headed for White Deer Mountain in unison. The Yun family is under the greatest threat. They're trying to win over the hearts of the people, so they can't send an army to suppress the wandering cultivators. They need a good reputation, but they also need to preserve their strength. The best way is to have the underground gangs step in. Many things that are inconvenient for the Yun family can be handed over to the gangs. "
Jiang Xinyue's heart skipped a beat when she heard this.
She was also a smart person. After listening to Qin Yi's words, she understood something.
"You're saying that the Qingyang Gang is working for the Yun family?"
"That's just my guess, but I think it's about right."
