Maybe everyone's thoughts are different. So may say they don't seek eternity, only what they once had. But Qin Yi can't do that.
He has lost too much, lost family, lost legs, lost dignity, and lost everything.
Once had? Nonsense. What Qin Yi wants, he will hold tightly in his hand, and no one should covet his things.
To put it simply, strength is still paramount.
With strength, you will have everything you want. Just like the common saying, money isn't everything, but without money you can't do anything at all. So everyone thinks about getting rich, about gaining power. Because only then can they keep what they want.
Money, authority, these are symbols of strength.
Previously Qin Yi saw an interesting phrase online: People with money match for life, people without money watch helplessly.
That phrase sounds funny, but if you think about it carefully, it's quite ironic. Those who say money isn't everything are those who have never lost it, or have resigned to their fate.
Though he is friends with Mo Wuji, he can't make decisions for him.
Since Mo Wuji has made such a decision, although Qin Yi doesn't agree, he can only support it.
"Let's go, I never want to co to this crappy place again." Qin Yi was a bit irritable, Mo Wuji's situation reminded him of his own past, being constantly humiliated and despised by Dong Jinsu. And what changed all this was finally having absolute strength.
With Mo Wuji's talent, it's inevitable he'll stand at the peak in the future. Maybe then, Nie Zhujun, that old woman, will grovel.
"Qin Yi, my young friend, please wait." Mo Hutu spoke.
Qin Yi frowned, Mo Hutu sleepily glanced at Nie Zhujun, "Maybe, you should go ask your elder, seek their opinion. Maybe they'll agree, you never know."
Nie Zhujun was stunned, saying, "Senior, it concerns Baihua Pavilion's future developnt, I think the elders wouldn't agree."
"That's not necessarily true." Mo Hutu chuckled.
Nie Zhujun frowned, "Senior, I've already sent soone to invite the elder. She usually arrives quickly. But I think she wouldn't agree."
"You old ghost, are you here to call in a favor?"
Everyone felt a flicker before their eyes, an old woman appeared in the center of the hall, looking about the sa age as Nie Zhujun, but Qin Yi knew she was probably hundreds of years old, much like Mo Hutu.
"Greetings to the elder!"
Nie Zhujun and the others hurriedly bowed deeply.
"Fan Ye, it's been a long ti." Mo Hutu greeted with a smile.
Fan Ye?
Qin Yi smiled inwardly, Baihua Pavilion does seem to have a knack for naming.
Fan Ye looked at Mo Hutu with displeasure, "You muddle-headed worm never cos with good intentions."
Mo Hutu laughed, "Proposal, isn't that a good thing?"
"Proposal my foot, I don't agree." Fan Ye suddenly fud.
Qin Yi almost bit his tongue, a hundreds-year-old old woman suddenly saying 'my foot', which felt really strange.
Nie Zhujun breathed a sigh of relief, earlier Mo Hutu's confident tone and expression made her worried, but now it seed her concern was unnecessary. She knew the elder wouldn't agree.
"Sister-in-law, we're all this age already, don't scare the kids." Mo Hutu laughed bitterly.
Sister-in-law?
Everyone was dumbfounded, Mo Hutu called Fan Ye sister-in-law?
"What's going on?" Qin Yi whispered to Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji shook his head, he didn't know either.
Fan Ye's old face flushed slightly, surprisingly looking a bit shy, glaring at Mo Hutu reproachfully, "Stop spouting nonsense, who's your sister-in-law?"
"You are! In our hearts, you've always been our sister-in-law." Mo Hutu said earnestly.
"Rubbish, if you dare to speak nonsense again, believe it or not I'll kick you out."
Everyone could tell, Fan Ye was not truly angry, but her voice was shaky.
"Old Mo, it seems this elderly lady has an unclear and complicated relationship with one of your Mo family ancestors. Your families really know how to play, at such an age still being so bold." Qin Yi said with interest gossiping with Mo Wuji.
"Are you Qin Yi?" Fan Ye suddenly looked at Qin Yi, coldly asked.
Qin Yi frowned, this old woman didn't seem too friendly toward him. He didn't know that Fan Ye overheard his gossiping earlier.
Mo Hutu beckoned to Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji leaned in, Mo Hutu whispered a few words in his ear, nobody knew what was said.
"Yes, I am Qin Yi."
"Covered in a bloody scent, eyes showing murderous intent, clearly not a good person."
Qin Yi: "..."
"Your nose is really sharp, you can even sll the blood scent on , you must've been specially trained, right?"
Fan Ye's face darkened, how could she not hear the aning in Qin Yi's words, clearly calling her a dog.
"Truly arrogant, treating elders like this, how dare you claim to be a good person?"
Qin Yi said smilingly, "It's not that I don't understand respecting the old and cherishing the young, it's just that so pompous fools always like to act superior in front of , the kind that begs for a beating, if you don't beat them, they'll never know their face can be beaten like a drum."
"Presumptuous, are you talking about this old body?" Fan Ye angrily said.
Qin Yi was about to retort, Mo Wuji quickly stepped up, whispered a few words in Qin Yi's ear, eyes pleading.
Qin Yi looked sowhat helpless, muttering, "Rember, you owe a favor."
"Repay with life." Mo Wuji said earnestly.
Qin Yi sighed, this was really frustrating. Mo Wuji said Mo Hutu told him earlier, the key to his marriage with Junior Sister Bai was this old woman.
For the sake of his brother's happiness, he endured. Qin Yi gritted his teeth, raised his lips in a bright smile, and bowed deeply to Fan Ye, "Senior, I was wrong!"
Nie Zhujun and the others' eyes widened, Qin Yi actually apologized?
What kind of person is Qin Yi? A fearless person who dared to tread the heavens underfoot.
They didn't think Qin Yi was afraid of Fan Ye to apologize, after all, he obliterated so many Hidden Families, saying Qin Yi was afraid was sheer nonsense.
Bai Jingqing glanced at Mo Wuji, Qin Yi's sudden change in attitude was probably related to Mo Wuji's whispering just now.
Fan Ye also froze, she knew Qin Yi well, understood his temperant and tactics. So Qin Yi's apology really caught her off guard.
Mo Hutu laughed, "Sister-in-law, Qin Yi has apologized, please calm down and don't argue with the young ones, this kid's mouth is lacking but he's kind-hearted."
Qin Yi squinted at Mo Hutu, that old coot really knew how to seize opportunities, daring to mock him in passing.
"Old Mo, you owe two favors now." Qin Yi transmitted via Divine Thought to Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji smiled helplessly. He didn't expect the elder to tease Qin Yi at this mont.
