"It seems like I have underestimated your arrogance and ignorance."
After a long while, Third Elder of the Zhao Clan finally spoke.
The coldness that filled the hall disappeared in an instant. However, Yi Rong's legs, which had been trembling, did not stop.
Third Elder's cold gaze shot towards Qin Yi, "Who do you think you are? What right do you have to make the Zhao Clan deal with you? You are just an ant. If the Zhao Clan wants you dead, they can do it with one finger. "
Qin Yi wasn't angry. Instead, he mocked, "The Zhao Clan sure is powerful but has nowhere to use it. To deal with two ants like us, they have to go through so much trouble."
"Qin Yi, you sure are not afraid of death."
Yi Rong finally recovered from the shock of Third Elder's overbearing aura. His previous loss of composure made him hate Qin Yi even more. "Do you know that using the Zhao Clan's name to act like a tyrant is a serious crime? Wouldn't it be too easy for you to just kill you? If I didn't react fast enough, wouldn't the Zhao Clan's reputation in the Cloudy Harbor be destroyed by you? "
As expected, the reason why Lu Yu was captured by the Zhao Clan was all because of Yi Rong.
It seemed like Qin Yi underestimated this person's determination to suck up to the Zhao Clan. Perhaps he felt that it would be difficult to find a breakthrough from Qin Yi.
Therefore, he purposely framed Qin Yi for using a fake token and pretending to be an elder.
After all, Yi Rong knew that with Qin Yi's age and the fact that his surname wasn't Zhao, he wouldn't be an elder of the Zhao Clan.
This was why he thought of using this method to get in touch with the Zhao Clan.
If he successfully framed the Zhao Clan, then he would be rewarded for capturing the fake elder. The Zhao Clan wouldn't mistreat him.
If it was proven that Qin Yi really was connected to the Zhao Clan. Then, Yi Rong could defend himself and say that he reported this to the Zhao Clan because he didn't want the Zhao Clan's reputation to be tarnished.
Even if the Zhao Clan doesn't reward him, at the very least, he would be recognized by them. If anything happened in the future, he might be able to get some benefits by relying on this relationship.
After he informed the Zhao Family of this matter, the Zhao Family was extremely furious and immediately ordered the arrest of Lu Yu and Qin Yi.
After seeing the Zhao Family's reaction, Yi Rong was indescribably happy.
In other words, his framing was actually a lucky shot. Qin Yi and the others had nothing to do with the Zhao Family at all. Although they had been very attentive to Qin Yi before, it made him feel uncomfortable.
However, there was still a return in the end. Moreover, he had also received five million spirit stones from Qin Yi.
It was also because he knew that Qin Yi had nothing to do with the Zhao Family that Yi Rong would bite Qin Yi like a mad dog.
Qin Yi glanced indifferently at Yi Rong, and then he ridiculed, "Young Master Yi is really protective of his master. Looks like the bones that the Zhao Clan lost are quite fragrant."
Yi Rong glared and said angrily, "Qin Mo, you dare to call me a dog?"
Qin Yi smiled and said, "Qin Mo didn't say that. Since Young Master Yi admitted it, there's nothing I can do."
"You!"
Yi Rong was flustered and exasperated, but he quickly recovered and then he sneered, "Qin Mo, you won't be able to jump around for long. I'll let you off this time. Anyway, the Third Elder is wise and will definitely make a swindling ant like you die a tragic death. "
"Enough!"
The Third Elder said coldly, scaring Yi Rong so much that he hurriedly shut his mouth.
"You're Qin Yi, right?"
The Third Elder ignored Yi Rong and looked indifferently at Qin Yi, "I don't like to beat around the bush. Let me ask you, where is Zhao Mo right now?"
As the Third Elder of the Zhao Clan, he naturally knew that this token couldn't be fake. Moreover, he could tell at a glance that this token was unique to Uncle Zhao.
Outsiders wouldn't be able to tell these things. Even if they knew that this was the token of an elder of the Zhao Clan, they wouldn't know whose token it belonged to.
Since the Third Elder didn't continue to question him, Qin Yi naturally wouldn't talk back to him. After all, the most important thing now was to save Lu Yu.
If their relationship deteriorated to an irreparable state, it would be impossible to save her.
Qin Yi didn't hide anything and directly said, "After Uncle Zhao sent us brothers to the Cloudy Sea Port, he left immediately. As for where he was going, Qin Mo doesn't know. "
The Third Elder nodded and said, "You're not lying. With Zhao Mo's personality, it's reasonable for him to do something like this. "
Yi Rong's eyes widened and he looked at the Third Elder in astonishment. He could clearly feel that the Third Elder's attitude was gradually changing.
"Could it be that this old man doesn't plan to pursue the matter? Doesn't that mean that everything I've done is useless? "
Yi Rong had already realized that things were progressing beyond his expectations. Just as he was about to do something, the Third Elder suddenly glanced at him.
"Get out."
The Third Elder coldly ordered to expel Yi Rong. He didn't give Yi Rong, the young master of the Tide Caller Gang, any face at all.
"But …"
"Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
Yi Rong knew that he was nothing in front of the Zhao Clan's Third Elder. If he really angered the Third Elder, he might really have to bear the consequences.
Yi Rong still had the ability to judge the situation.
He cursed inwardly, "Old fart," then glanced at Qin Yi and walked out awkwardly.
"Qin Yi, I have a task for you to complete. As long as you agree, not only will your friend be safe, but the Zhao Clan will also treat you as an honored guest. "
The Third Elder looked at Qin Yi faintly and immediately changed the topic: "If you don't agree, for the sake of your courage before, this old man can forgive your crime and let you leave safely. However, I don't think you'll be able to see your friend leave the Zhao Manor alive. "
Qin Yi thought for a moment and said, "Do you want me to go find Uncle Zhao?"
The Third Elder stroked his beard and nodded. "It seems that I didn't misjudge you. You're brave and resourceful, and you can be considered a talent. Otherwise, you and your friend would've met each other in the underworld already. "
It was obvious that before Qin Yi came to the Zhao Clan, the Third Elder had no intention of letting them go. The Third Elder did not intend to let them go. It was only after Qin Yi broke in and clashed with the guards that he changed his mind.
After all, he believed Yi Rong's words when he didn't understand Qin Yi. He felt that it was more likely that Qin Yi and Qin Yi were using the Third Elder's power to intimidate others.
"Qin Yi, since you know what I want you to do. What's your choice? "
The Third Elder looked at Qin Yi calmly and didn't plan on giving Qin Yi any time to think.
