Chapter 426: Chapter 426 Xiang Junyi

The next day.

Tan Yi personally drove Qin Yi and Liu Yiren to the airport.

Watching the plane take off, Tan Yi grinned like a fool, his mouth stretching all the way to his ears.

"Beauties, here I come!"

Tan Yi almost stomped his foot into the gas tank; the car wasn’t just being driven too fast, but was practically flying.

...

...

Around two in the afternoon, Qin Yi and Liu Yiren emerged from Qingtong City Airport.

The two of them hailed a cab to the city center and checked into a hotel to stay for a bit.

After a short rest, they went out to eat some of Qingtong City’s snacks, filled their stomachs, and headed straight to the Xiang Family.

The Xiang Family, being the Guardians of Qingtong City, knew the instant Qin Yi and Liu Yiren arrived.

Therefore, they easily met the members of the Xiang Family.

"Daoist Qin Yi, please have a seat!"

In the Xiang Family’s living room, an elder with a tall stature wearing a Tang suit invited Qin Yi and Liu Yiren to sit down.

This man was the Xiang Family Head, Xiang Dongliu.

A servant served tea.

Xiang Dongliu gestured for them to help themselves and casually asked, "Daoist Qin Yi, are you here in Qingtong City for business or just passing through? Is there anything I can assist you with?"

Qin Yi got straight to the point and explained his intentions.

Xiang Dongliu’s expression didn’t change much, indicating that he already knew the purpose of their visit.

Qin Yi smiled and said, "Family Head Xiang, I wonder if I could trouble Young Master Xiang to meet me?"

"Unfortunately, Junyi is not at home. I’ve already notified him, and he’s on his way back. I hope you and Miss Liu can be patient."

Qin Yi smiled and said, "No problem! I wonder, Family Head Xiang, would you be willing to let Young Master Xiang follow me? Following sounds serious; it’s actually about working together."

Xiang Dongliu laughed heartily, "The affairs of you youngsters are beyond my interference. Daoist Qin Yi, you’re a gifted young man with great ambitions, beyond what someone like me could achieve. Junyi has been independent since he was young; if he’s willing, I have no objections."

Qin Yi was slightly surprised; Xiang Dongliu’s words were clear. Everything depends on Xiang Junyi’s own decision.

If that’s truly the case, then it should be easier.

But, is it really that simple?

He intends to recruit everyone on the younger generation’s leaderboard, something that seems like a fantasy and unrealistic to anyone who hears it. Xiang Dongliu being so agreeable might indicate genuine respect for Xiang Junyi’s decision, or perhaps he has other intentions.

People who have lived to this level are no fools.

Qin Yi had a feeling that recruiting Xiang Junyi might not be so smooth.

While speaking, the sound of a car came from outside.

Xiang Dongliu smiled and said, "It should be Junyi back."

Indeed, walking in from outside was a dashing young man dressed in white, holding an elegantly crafted longsword.

Liu Yiren’s eyes lit up, "So handsome!"

One had to admit, Xiang Junyi was indeed very good-looking, with a delicate face, dressed in white, exuding an ethereal aura.

"Father!" Xiang Junyi bowed with his sword in salute.

Xiang Dongliu stood up, smiling, "Back already? Come and meet Daoist Qin Yi."

Xiang Junyi looked at Qin Yi, slightly bowed, his expression slightly arrogant, "Daoist Qin Yi, your reputation precedes you!"

Qin Yi’s eyes flickered slightly, his brows relaxed, "Young Master Xiang, you’re too kind!"

Xiang Junyi walked over, and immediately a servant came up to lay a clean white cloth on a separate sofa, only then did Xiang Junyi sit down, laying the longsword across his lap.

The servant served tea, and Xiang Junyi’s teacup was clearly different from those of Qin Yi and the others.

Qin Yi and others’ teacups had blue floral patterns on the surface.

While Xiang Junyi’s teacup was as white as jade.

When Xiang Junyi lifted the teacup, he first took out a snow-white handkerchief, carefully wiped the outside of the teacup, then tossed the handkerchief into the trash can before taking a light sip.

Xiang Dongliu seemed a bit embarrassed, "Apologies. Junyi has had a severe cleanliness obsession since he was a child."

Qin Yi smiled, indicating it was no bother.

Before coming, Tan Yi had told them about Xiang Junyi, knowing that he indeed had a severe cleanliness obsession.

Xiang Junyi looked at Qin Yi, speaking coldly and arrogantly, "I heard Daoist Qin Yi was specifically looking for me?"

Qin Yi nodded slightly, patiently repeating his intention once again.

Unexpectedly, Xiang Junyi sneered, his smile full of undisguised mockery.

"Daoist Qin Yi, may I ask what the chances of success are for this matter?"

Qin Yi frankly said, "I don’t know!"

"Don’t know, yet you dare to do it? Aren’t you afraid it will be a futile effort?"

Qin Yi sighed softly, "Some things have to be done by someone, don’t they? Originally, there were no roads in the world, but when many people walk on them, they become roads. Things that seem impossible, if not attempted, wouldn’t even have the chance to fail, don’t you think, Young Master Xiang?"

Xiang Junyi’s handsome face bore an unhidden disdain, "I think the probability of success for this matter is zero. At least for me, this road is impassable."

Qin Yi’s expression remained unchanged, "Young Master Xiang means to refuse my proposal?"

"I, Xiang Junyi, never subordinate myself to others. If Daoist Qin Yi came to recruit me, it’s destined to fail."

"Who do you think you are? You’re not the one to show off." Liu Yiren initially found Xiang Junyi quite handsome, but didn’t expect his emotional intelligence to be so low, and his arrogance to be unwarranted.

Qin Yi’s cultivation is unfathomable; even her three grandfathers together couldn’t match him. You’re not the one to show off, Xiang Junyi.

Qin Yi treated him politely, but Xiang Junyi put on airs, which made her annoyed.

Xiang Junyi’s eyes turned cold, looking at Liu Yiren, "Miss Liu, it seems you disagree with what I said?"

"What do you think? Having the strength to show off is called being impressive. Lacking strength and showing off is called being a fool." Liu Yiren sneered disdainfully.

Xiang Junyi said coldly, "Miss Liu thinks I’m not strong enough? Do you dare to take one of my sword strikes and try?"

"You..." Liu Yiren’s face turned cold, filled with anger, "You’re a famous figure, and yet you say such ridiculous things? I’m embarrassed for you. What skill is there in bullying me? If you really have skill, challenge Qin Yi."

"Fine, I’ll agree to Young Master Xiang’s request on behalf of Yiren; let her take one strike. This child has been spoiled, it’s just right for her to learn what it means to have others beyond oneself, and worlds beyond worlds." Qin Yi suddenly said seriously.

Liu Yiren looked at Qin Yi in shock, "Are you crazy? He’s in the Foundation Establishment Stage, I’m in the Qi Refinement Realm, how could I possibly withstand one of his sword strikes?"

Qin Yi teased, "What, are you scared?"

Liu Yiren’s pretty face turned angry, "Who’s scared? I’ll take it. If I get hurt, I’ll go back and tell the great beauty about you wanting to crawl under Yun Mengyao’s skirt, and let her deal with you."

Qin Yi was speechless. Did this silly girl forget about the Death Replacement Talisman she had on her?

However, Xiang Dongliu and Xiang Junyi’s expressions changed slightly, and Xiang Junyi subconsciously looked at Xiang Dongliu.

Xiang Dongliu laughed, "It’s all heated words. Miss Liu is of noble status; if she really were to be accidentally injured by Junyi, causing unnecessary trouble would be undesirable."

"It’s okay! If Yiren gets hurt, I assure you the Liu Family definitely won’t make trouble. This girl is always unruly; it’s good for her to also see the prowess of Young Master Xiang." Qin Yi said calmly.
