Fang Zheng'ao, Qin Qiong, and the others were greatly surprised to hear that the Miao village people were going to attack them tonight!
They were even more shocked when they learned that the Dragon Soul of the Divine Gate was behind the instigation.
The Divine Gate had always been mysterious, and in recent years, it had never caused trouble on the land of Shenzhou, nor had it even appeared.
Moreover, according to Li Changsheng's words from a few days ago, the Divine King of the Divine Gate was from Shenzhou and had an inexplicable affection for the land. The other party had explicitly issued an order that no one from the Divine Gate was allowed to do anything that harmed Shenzhou!
However, after Qin Yi and Li Changsheng's explanations, Fang Zheng'ao and the others quickly came to terms with the fact that the Dragon Soul was targeting their Order Hall this time to avenge Dragon Lion.
"Deputy Hall Master Li, Deputy Hall Master Liang, what should we do now?" Qin Qiong asked with some concern.
Fang Zheng'ao also frowned tightly and said, "If it were just the Miao village people, they would be no match for us. If they dare to come, we can easily wipe them out!"
"But if the people from the Divine Gate are added, we might..."
He stopped mid-sentence, his brows furrowed into a perfect character '川' (chuan, meaning river).
The meaning he wanted to convey was very clear.
Before Li Changsheng and Liang Jinghong could reply, Huo Qiyang spoke first, "They've come to our doorstep, what else can we do? Of course, we fight back! One comes, we kill one; two come, we kill two!"
"Hmph! So what if they are from the Divine Gate? If they dare to come, we'll make sure they never return!"
"They might be strong, but our Order Hall is not to be trifled with!"
As he said this, Huo Qiyang clenched his fists. Instead of worrying like Fang Zheng'ao and Qin Qiong, he was full of fighting spirit, and a look of anticipation flickered across his face.
The Divine Gate, the world's number one power, he really wanted to see how strong they were! Was it just a reputation, or were they truly that capable?
Sensing his thoughts, Li Changsheng, Liang Jinghong, and the others all gave bitter smiles, their expressions helpless.
Bidal and the other three were standing nearby. Watching Huo Qiyang's reaction, they all sneered inwardly.
Bidal even grumbled to himself, "Ignorance is bliss! When Master Long arrives, let's see how you die..."
Of course, despite his inner thoughts, Bidal and the other three said nothing outwardly, remaining quietly by the side.
They wished the people of the Order Hall would be more arrogant! The more arrogant they were, the faster they would be defeated when Jin Xiuxian and the Dragon Soul led their forces to attack.
In this way, if Jin Xiuxian and the Dragon Soul won, they could be rescued and freed!
"Team Leader Huo, we cannot be careless! Based on our understanding, the Divine Gate's reputation is definitely not just for show!" Liang Jinghong solemnly reminded him.
Huo Qiyang slowly unclenched his fists and nodded.
Afterward, Li Changsheng and Liang Jinghong solemnly and seriously instructed Fang Zheng'ao and the others, then told everyone to disperse.
As the ordinary members of the Order Hall had already gone out, only about a dozen people remained at the Order Hall headquarters.
Apart from Qin Yi, the remaining dozen or so people were basically the highest combat power of the Order Hall.
After dispersing, everyone did not rest. They stayed in their respective rooms, constantly monitoring the situation outside.
And each of them was ready for battle!
As soon as there was any anomaly outside, they would rush out and act.
Qin Yi stayed with Li Changsheng and Xue Qiao'er.
Qin Yi sat in a chair. Bored, he took out his phone, played for a while, and then called Han Xin.
They chatted for several minutes until Han Xin said she had company matters to attend to, and then they hung up.
Seeing Qin Yi playing on his phone and calling Han Xin, Xue Qiao'er and Fang Zheng'ao exchanged glances, both seeing a complex emotion in each other's eyes.
They didn't know if Qin Yi was overconfident or simply carefree! In the current situation, with the Miao village people and the Divine Gate on their way, not only was he not nervous, but he was incredibly relaxed!
A moment later, Xue Qiao'er walked up to Qin Yi.
Qin Yi looked up and asked, "What? Is there something?"
"Qin Yi..."
Xue Qiao'er wanted to say something but couldn't articulate it for a moment, her expression one of hesitation.
Qin Yi looked puzzled and said, "Team Leader Xue, just say what you want to say! We're so familiar, there's nothing to be embarrassed about!"
Xue Qiao'er remained silent for another two seconds, then finally said, "Qin Yi, I want to ask you a favor!"
"If something unexpected happens to me tonight, I hope you can help..."
"Wait a minute!" Qin Yi raised his hand and interrupted her, "What do you mean by 'something unexpected'? Don't worry, nothing will happen to you! Not just you, but everyone in the Order Hall will be fine!"
This matter started because of him, and with him here, he would do his best to protect the Order Hall!
Hearing his confident words, Xue Qiao'er was stunned.
She truly didn't understand why Qin Yi was so confident!
Unable to figure it out, Xue Qiao'er didn't think about it further and continued, "Thank you! But just in case, if something unexpected happens to me, I hope you can help take care of my grandmother!"
Qin Yi: "???"
"My grandmother is an ordinary person. She lives in Kyoto. My grandfather passed away early, and my parents are not around, so she only has me as her relative in this world..."
After listening, Qin Yi understood. Xue Qiao'er wanted him to help take care of her grandmother.
Her tone and expression during the conversation had a hint of making final arrangements.
Qin Yi found this both a little amusing and a little helpless!
He didn't offer any further explanation, because no matter how much he explained, she wouldn't believe him! To put her mind at ease, he simply agreed!
Seeing him agree, Xue Qiao'er let out a sigh of relief.
Then she said with a serious expression, "Thank you! Once the situation is bad tonight, I will cover for you to leave first..."
As if worried that Qin Yi wouldn't be willing to leave, she immediately added, "When I tell you to leave, you must go immediately. Don't insist on staying out of impulse!"
Hearing this, Qin Yi smiled and nodded, agreeing, "Okay, I understand!"
Later, Li Changsheng and Fang Zheng'ao both came over and solemnly cautioned Qin Yi, telling him to leave first if the situation turned bad tonight and to prioritize his own safety!
Qin Yi didn't say much and agreed to everything.
However, agreeing was one thing, but how he would actually act tonight was something no one else could possibly know, except Qin Yi himself!
Time passed quickly, and the sky was soon covered in darkness, marking the arrival of night.
With the coming of night, many people within the Order Hall began to feel a sense of heaviness and anxiety!
