"Ten, nine, eight, seven …"
Qin Yi said one word at a time. The rhythm of the pause was very clear. Every time he counted, the atmosphere of the audience became more solemn.
Everyone in the Qingyang Gang, especially Wang Mai's confidants, felt extremely helpless.
It wasn't that they didn't want to rush up and save Wang Mai, but they really couldn't find any flaws in Qin Yi. They had calculated in their hearts.
No matter how much they thought about it, they couldn't find a foolproof plan.
At this moment, any risky move could lead to the death of Wang Mai, the Young Sect Master. None of them could afford to take such a risk.
Therefore, as Qin Yi continued to count, the pressure on the Qingyang Gang's martial artists increased.
"Four …"
Qin Yi's tone was indifferent, without a trace of emotion. He stared at Wang Mai so coldly that Wang Mai didn't even dare to look him in the eye.
At this moment, he was also complaining in his heart. Don't be fooled by his heroic words, saying that he could die.
If he really had to die, he would still be extremely afraid. After all, he was still young and hadn't experienced enough of the colorful world. Although he was the young master, he hadn't controlled the Qingyang Gang yet.
If he were to die now, not only would he be afraid, but he would also be completely unwilling.
However, he still couldn't understand how he, the young master of the Qingyang Gang, could have accidentally fallen into the hands of his opponent.
Where did this opponent come from? Since when did such a terrifying existence appear in the ranks of wandering cultivators?
"Three!"
Qin Yi's tone was even colder. Even as he looked at Wang Mai, murderous intent was slowly brewing.
Wang Mai even felt a chill on his neck. The murderous intent had begun to devour his consciousness and body.
Looking at the opposite side, all the Qingyang Gang's subordinates were pale. There was no way they could come up with a plan to save him.
Wang Mai's mental defenses completely collapsed.
"Wait," Wang Mai called out in a trembling voice, unwilling to die.
The corner of Qin Yi's mouth twitched. "What? Have you thought it through? "
Wang Mai hissed, "Sir, do you really have to be so extreme? Don't you know that my Qingyang Gang is working for the Yun family? The Yun Family was the future royal family! If you kill me, you will be going against the future royal family. "
Qin Yi's gaze didn't even waver as he said indifferently, "If your next sentence isn't to order these pieces of trash to retreat, then you won't have the chance to speak again in this lifetime."
This kind of warning was more convincing than any threat.
Wang Mai's heart trembled, even though he knew what it meant to give the order. However, his survival instinct had already won over everything.
"Back off, everyone back off." Wang Mai shouted at the top of his lungs. It could be seen that the great terror between life and death had completely destroyed his pride.
Most of the Qingyang Gang practitioners breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this order.
Evidently, they were unable to bear the responsibility for Wang Mai's death. Now that Wang Mai had ordered them to retreat, they didn't feel any pressure in their hearts.
If Wang Mai died, they would definitely be in trouble.
However, it was Wang Mai's order for the rogue cultivators to go over. If someone were to be made a scapegoat, it would be Wang Mai. It had nothing to do with them.
The Qingyang Gang pushed to the sides like a tide.
The wandering cultivators let out waves of cheers. There was no need to fight or kill. The Qingyang Gang had voluntarily made way for them. This was undoubtedly a great victory for the wandering cultivator world.
For a moment, the valley was filled with thunderous cheers. Like a swarm of bees, the wandering cultivators surged into Bailu Mountain like a tide.
At every intersection and passage, the wandering cultivators swarmed in like a flood of locusts.
The tranquility of Bailu Mountain was broken in an instant.
Seeing the wandering cultivators flood into Bailu Mountain, Wang Mai knew how much trouble he had caused with this order and how much trouble it would bring to the Qingyang Gang.
However, he had no other choice.
"I've already given the order. Shouldn't you fulfill your promise?" Wang Mai said with a trembling voice.
Qin Yi pretended to be surprised. "Promise? What did I promise you? "
Wang Mai's face turned ashen. "You … you tricked me?"
Come to think of it, the other party hadn't promised anything. The other party had only said that he would be killed if he didn't give the order. But he didn't say that he wouldn't be killed if he gave the order.
Seeing Wang Mai's ashen face, Qin Yi smiled faintly. "It seems that the young master of the Qingyang Gang's life is indeed precious. You're much more afraid of death than ordinary people."
Wang Mai's face was ashen, his mind a mess. He was both regretful and fantasizing that the other party would spare his life.
"Wang Mai, was it? Even if I let you go now, can you explain yourself to the Yun family? "
Qin Yi asked with a leisurely smile.
Wang Mai naturally knew that letting all the wandering cultivators into Bailu Mountain meant that the Qingyang Gang's promise to the Yun family had been broken.
Given the Yun family's tyranny and current momentum, if they really wanted to deal with the Qingyang Gang, the Qingyang Gang would definitely be in big trouble.
However, the Qingyang Gang's misfortune was still better than being killed right now.
"Seeing that you're more sensible, I'll let you live for now. However, whether or not the Yun Family will spare your head will depend on your luck. Based on my understanding of the Yun family, they're ruthless and won't let you off easily. "
The Yun family was not a magnanimous force. Wang Mai, the young master of the Qingyang Gang, naturally knew this.
Qin Yi seemed to be joking. "Since ancient times, the one who strikes first has the advantage. Do you know why the Yun family won? Because they were unscrupulous and attacked the Jiang royal family first. So, if you don't want the Qingyang Gang to be unlucky, I'll teach you a move for free. It's best if you strike first. "
How could Wang Mai dare to respond to such words?
Qin Yi didn't expect him to respond either. He smiled. "The Yun family is in a terrible predicament right now. If the Qingyang Gang doesn't take this opportunity to topple the Yun family, even the gods won't be able to save you when this wall is firmly rooted. "
Everyone kicks a wall when it's down?
Wang Mai was still confused when Qin Yi suddenly pushed him toward the Qingyang Gang crowd.
Wang Mai stumbled. By the time he steadied himself, Qin Yi's figure had long since disappeared into the crowd.
"Young Master, are you alright?"
"That guy slipped away. Why don't we charge forward and hack him to death! Let's help the young master vent his anger! "
Wang Mai looked at the tide of wandering cultivators. Among the countless figures, he couldn't find the person who had just attacked. For a moment, his heart was filled with a sense of absurdity, as if the experience just now was like a nightmare.
"Young Master, let's chase after them now and kill as many as we can!"
Wang Mai hurriedly said, "No!"
Charging forward now would mean starting a war with the wandering cultivators. The result of such a war would be mutual destruction. More than half of the men he had brought would die.
