After hearing Qin Yi's words, the white-bearded elder and Xu Yan's hearts turned cold.
What happened today was indeed their fault.
If it had been them, they would not have let Qin Yi off so easily given their personalities if Qin Yi dared to cause trouble at their residence.
After all, to any cultivator, everyone's private territory was inviolable.
Once it was violated, it was equivalent to being slapped in the face.
To anyone with a temper, it was intolerable for someone to cause trouble at their home.
Even if they were not strong enough, they would fight the other party to the death. Not to mention the fact that Qin Yi was so powerful that he could easily subdue them, not to mention the fact that he was so powerful.
Right now, they had no right to negotiate with Qin Yi.
Initially, they thought that they could help the other party bear the blame and avoid the danger of being punished. However, it seemed like things would not go as they wished.
The situation was very disadvantageous to them. Qin Yi was the strongest among them. As long as he was willing, he could indeed do anything to Xu Yan and the others.
Not to mention, the current Palace Lord, Lou Yangbing, was very biased towards Qin Yi.
It was a terrifying thing for them to know that Lou Yangbing was on Qin Yi's side.
As the Palace Lord of the academy, Lou Yangbing had the right to punish anyone.
Even if many of the elders present were much more qualified than Lou Yangbing, it was still useless.
After all, the Palace Lord was the Palace Lord, and the elders were the elders. The difference in status was irreversible.
The Palace Lord could order them to do things, but they could not order the Palace Lord to do anything. At most, they could only give him some suggestions. The key was whether Lou Yangbing was willing to give them face and listen to them.
From Lou Yangbing's order to punish them, it could be seen that the other party was determined to protect Qin Yi, regardless of anyone else's reputation.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have remained silent until now.
Even Di Ruolin, who was standing at the side, was silent, as if she was ready to let Qin Yi do whatever he wanted.
Obviously, the two of them had more weight in Qin Yi's heart.
If they were to open their mouths and say a few good words to Qin Yi, then Qin Yi might consider giving them face and give Xu Yan and the white-bearded old man a punishment that was neither light nor heavy, and then this matter would be over.
However, they didn't do so, which meant that they really didn't want to help Xu Yan. They wanted Qin Yi to teach Xu Yan a big lesson.
At this point, the white-bearded elder no longer had any hope.
Although he didn't care much about what happened in the academy, Qin Yi's reputation had been resounding recently. He had heard a lot about Qin Yi. Although he did not know much about Qin Yi's character, he was not completely clueless.
Clearly, Qin Yi was a person who could distinguish kindness and grudges clearly, and he was also a person who would seek revenge for any grievances.
Qin Yi had the guts to offend and deal with the Godly King. Was there anything he would not do?
He even wanted to defeat an existence like the Godly King, let alone the two of them, who were nothing in Qin Yi's eyes.
However, just as they were thinking about this in despair, what Qin Yi said next surprised them.
"Perhaps I already know what the two of you are thinking," Ye Zichen said coldly.
Qin Yi smiled at them as his eyes sparkled brightly. He looked at the two of them and said, "However, I think that you two seem to think too badly of me."
Xu Yan and the white-bearded elder widened their eyes as they looked at Qin Yi in disbelief.
Judging from Qin Yi's tone, could it be that he was not planning to pursue the matter further?
If that was the case, didn't it mean that they had escaped this calamity?
To be honest, not only Xu Yan and the white-bearded elder, but everyone else at the scene also looked at Qin Yi in confusion.
As a matter of fact, as elders and direct disciples of elders, they were quite sympathetic toward the matter between Xu Yan and the white-bearded old man.
After all, their statuses were similar. If something had really happened, they would also be responsible for what happened today.
One must know that if Xu Yan and the white-bearded elder were the only ones involved in this matter, they deserved it no matter how the situation turned out.
After all, they had dared to cause such a huge commotion without anyone's help. This was enough to prove that the two of them had indeed crossed the line.
However, the problem was that Xu Yan and the white-bearded elder were not the only ones at fault. Everyone present was responsible.
Although Xu Yan was the leader, did the others who had cooperated with him not have any responsibility at all?
The answer to this question was, of course, no!
Moreover, from today's incident, one could see Qin Yi's attitude towards the elders!
Although Qin Yi had already reached a consensus with them and the misunderstanding had been resolved, who could be sure that Qin Yi was not angry about this matter?
Without a doubt, from today's departure, one could actually see Qin Yi's attitude towards the elders.
After all, the other party was the strongest person in Yin-Yang Academy. In other words, his attitude towards Yin-Yang Academy could possibly affect the future direction of Yin-Yang Academy.
If he really treated Yin-Yang Academy kindly, there would still be a lot of space for the academy's future development.
After all, such a powerful expert was the first in the entire Hundred Chuan Region.
If they had such a powerful expert to help them, they would definitely have a better space for development. Of course, the prerequisite was that he could defeat the Divine King in the end. However, since they had already decided to bear this matter with Qin Yi, they would definitely bear the final outcome together.
However, they couldn't just ignore this matter completely! After all, Qin Yi's potential was right there for all to see. No one could ignore his future development prospects.
However, if he were to heavily punish the white-bearded elder today, it would mean that he already had a grudge against Yin-Yang Academy.
Even though he would continue to help Yin-Yang Academy in the future, he probably wouldn't treat the elders any better.
If that was really the case, then they were afraid that their future days would not be easy.
This was also the reason why they were so eager to see how Qin Yi would punish the white-bearded elder. At the same time, they hoped that he would be given a lighter punishment!
