Qin Yi's reaction was observed by the Azure Dragon and the other three, but they had no idea what Qin Yi was waiting for or how to help at all.
"You brat, whatever you're waiting for, calm down. Being rash isn't your nature."
Xuanwu consoled, as Qin Yi was typically steady in his actions and rarely showed any moments of instability.
"Oh."
Qin Yi responded perfunctorily, but continued to be jittery.
On the fourth day, Qin Yi seemed even more agitated, occasionally muttering to himself, but nobody could make out what he was saying.
By the fifth day, Qin Yi's eyes were filled with disappointment.
Azure Dragon patted his shoulder, "Stay calm, no matter how bad things get, we're here for you. As long as you've tried your best."
Qin Yi nodded.
By the seventh day, it was no longer disappointment in Qin Yi's eyes, but resignation.
"It seems I'm destined not to be able to keep Mo Wuji safe."
Qin Yi appeared very despondent, his cultivation wasn't sufficient and he was out of strategies, feeling defeated for the first time.
"Let's go, I was too optimistic. How could the goddess of luck always stand by my side?"
Qin Yi laughed bitterly.
"Old Dragon, you guys head back to Yinfeng City, I'll go to the Mo Family to bring him out; he can't stay there anymore. I can protect him for a moment, but that's all. This time, we're in big trouble."
Azure Dragon and the others were silent.
They understood Qin Yi's intention.
If the Fang Family leaked the news of Qin Yi and Mo Wuji's collusion, everything he had painstakingly built would be destroyed.
Moreover, once the Lei Family, Nan Family, Mo Family, and Fang Family learned that Qin Yi and Mo Wuji had colluded to kill their disciples entering the Secret Realm, they would definitely join forces for a mad revenge.
They were powerless against one Fang Family, let alone the alliance of four families.
This time, they've encountered their biggest crisis.
A single misstep could cost them all their lives.
Azure Dragon said, "Qin Yi, take Mo Wuji and head directly to Azure Dragon Mountain. We'll return and immediately relocate everyone to Azure Dragon Mountain."
The Great Array Qin Yi set up on Tiger Roar Mountain couldn't withstand the old monsters from the four families.
Azure Dragon Mountain was relatively safer, with celestial barriers and complex terrain.
Qin Yi lightly shook his head, "No need, you just wait for me on Tiger Roar Mountain."
Although Azure Dragon Mountain's terrain was complicated, the old monsters from these hidden families were too powerful to be contained. He had one last move, which was to enter the Secret Realm to hide.
Back then, Divine Emperor Qin Mu gave him the key to enter the Secret Realm at any time, the safest place.
"Is there anywhere safer than Azure Dragon Mountain?"
Qin Yi said solemnly, "Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to us. However, what we've painstakingly managed might have to be abandoned."
"Time is of the essence, let's leave immediately."
Seven days had passed.
Fang Zhu should have returned after delivering the message long ago, but she hasn't come back yet. Fang Family will definitely become suspicious and send people to the Mo Family to investigate; by then everything will be exposed.
Qin Yi must go to the Mo Family to bring Mo Wuji out before that happens.
Just as they were about to leave, Qin Yi suddenly stopped, abruptly looking in one direction, eyes filled with heat.
"Hahaha... You've finally come, young master has waited patiently for this moment, almost gave up."
Azure Dragon and the other three also sensed a powerful aura rapidly approaching.
Everyone instinctively restrained their aura.
This powerful aura was getting closer, soon sweeping overhead like a black cloud.
"Who are they?"
After the group had passed by, Xuanwu asked curiously.
Just now, this aura was emitted by seven people, one of whom was Late Stage Divine Separation, while the other six were Great Perfection Divine Separation.
"Demon Tamers," Qin Yi said.
Azure Dragon asked, "They're the ones you've been waiting for?"
Qin Yi nodded slightly.
"Judging by their stance, they're not here to make friends with the Fang Family."
Qin Yi said solemnly, "Whether they are enemies of the Fang Family or my enemies, it's hard to say now."
"What do you mean?" asked Azure Dragon.
Qin Yi's words were becoming increasingly unintelligible.
"Do you remember how Yun Mengyao mentioned that if a Demon Tamer were killed, the others would be sure to pursue the enemy relentlessly?"
The four nodded, they remembered.
"I previously disguised as a member of the Fang Family and killed Demon Tamer Zhuo Mu. After Zhuo Mu's death, a black beetle crawled out from his wrist and flew away. I suspect this beetle transmitted Zhuo Mu's death to the other Demon Tamers.
But my uncertainty lies in what kind of information this black beetle would transmit? Does it have the ability to see through illusions, see my true body?
If it transmitted the scene at that time, then these people are enemies of the Fang Family.
If it transmitted that I killed Zhuo Mu, then these people are my enemies."
It was only then that everyone understood why Qin Yi said the plan was beyond his control this time.
Xuanwu laughed, "You sly devil, you sure love playing the game of borrowing strength to counteract strength."
During the extermination of the Su Family, Qin Yi used the Golden Winged Roc's hands to cripple the Su Family, and this time he leveraged the Demon Tamers.
However, Qin Yi wasn't too optimistic, he lamented, "I'm gambling."
Xuanwu comforted, "Don't worry, if a mere beetle truly has the ability to see through illusions, then what are our efforts of cultivation worth? Could it be less than a beetle? After all, none of us have the ability to see through illusions."
Qin Yi shook his head, "I don't recognize this type of beetle, each of the countless living creatures has its own unique abilities, and shouldn't be underestimated."
Xuanwu laughed, "We've reached this point, worrying won't help. I'll follow them and find out whether they're friend or foe."
Everyone nodded slightly, and discreetly followed along.
...
Fang Haohong had just emerged from his room's secret chamber, a morbid smile on his face.
"Not enough yet, when Qin Yi is killed, I'll get some beauties." Currently, there are sixty-nine corpses in the secret chamber; he needs one hundred and eight maidens to arrange them in an 1808 pose.
"Why is Fang Zhu taking so long?"
Fang Haohong sat at his desk, eyes fixed on a book of Tao Te Ching, suddenly displaying a look of disdain, he tossed the Tao Te Ching into the trash.
Taoism?
For someone twisted like him, such a concept doesn't exist, so throwing away the Tao Te Ching isn't surprising.
It's a huge irony for such a grotesque person to read the Tao Te Ching in the first place.
Suddenly, he sharply looked up as if seeing through the ceiling, sensing a powerful aura approaching the Fang Family.
In the next instant, his figure vanished, reappearing high in the sky.
This aura was exceptionally strong; even the elders of the Fang Family sensed it and appeared one after another.
Everyone kept their eyes fixed on the distance, watching as seven figures approached like a dark cloud.
