"If I join your Order Hall, what benefits will I get?"
Qin Yi got straight to the point.
"..."
Fang Zheng'ao on the other end of the line was clearly stunned for two seconds.
Then, Fang Zheng'ao said with a hint of surprise and excitement, "Qin Yi, you've finally come around!"
"Don't worry, if you're willing to join us in the Order Hall, we certainly won't treat you unfairly!"
"Whether it's cultivation resources or money, we can provide them for you!"
"Does your Order Hall have materials for setting up formations?" Qin Yi asked directly.
His primary reason for considering joining the Order Hall this time was for formation materials. As for money, he wasn't lacking it at all.
His girlfriend, Han Xin, was the richest person in Haicheng; money was the least of their worries!
"Formation materials? Yes, we do!"
Fang Zheng'ao immediately replied, "Let alone formation materials, our Order Hall even has ready-made formations!"
"If you join us, whatever formation you need, we can help you set it up!"
"Qin Yi, I won't hide it from you. One of the deputy hall masters of our Order Hall is a formidable formation master! He can set up dozens of formations!"
Qin Yi could clearly hear a trace of pride and boastfulness in Fang Zheng'ao's voice when he said this.
Qin Yi felt like laughing but didn't mention that he could also set up formations. He simply said, "Alright then, let's talk in person. If it works out, I'll join the Order Hall!"
"No problem!" Fang Zheng'ao asked, "When are you free? I'll come to Haicheng to find you!"
Clearly, Fang Zheng'ao was eager to recruit Qin Yi into the Order Hall as soon as possible.
After Xue Qiao'er and Li Xiuwu returned from their mission in Haicheng last time, Xue Qiao'er told them that Qin Yi had helped them catch the culprits, proving Qin Yi's formidable strength. Li Changsheng and Fang Zheng'ao had been trying to figure out how to recruit Qin Yi into the Order Hall for some time.
Now that Qin Yi had called them himself and expressed his willingness to join, naturally, Fang Zheng'ao wanted Qin Yi to join sooner rather than later.
What if Qin Yi changed his mind later and they had to try again? It would be a hassle.
"Hmm..." Qin Yi pondered for a moment and said, "Let's see when you're free. I'll be back in Haicheng tomorrow and will likely be there for some time after."
"You're not in Haicheng now? Where are you?" Fang Zheng'ao asked.
"Black Dragon City," Qin Yi replied truthfully.
"You're in Black Dragon City? Why don't you wait there, and I'll come directly to Black Dragon City to find you?"
"Uh..."
A few dark lines appeared on Qin Yi's face. He knew Fang Zheng'ao was anxious, but was he really in such a hurry?
However, after some thought, he agreed.
Meeting in Black Dragon City or Haicheng made no difference to him.
Later, after they ended the call, Qin Yi lay down and fell asleep.
Today, on Tian Shan, he had exerted a great deal of energy to release his senses in search of formation materials.
Qin Yi was exhausted, so he fell into a deep sleep shortly after lying down.
Around four or five in the morning.
In the hotel room where Qin Yi was staying, two figures, like ghosts, slipped in through the window.
Because the two figures moved so lightly, they made almost no sound upon entering. Coupled with Qin Yi's deep sleep due to exhaustion, he was completely unaware of their arrival.
He was still fast asleep in bed.
The two figures entered the room, approached the bed, and peered down at Qin Yi from the left and right.
By the moonlight outside the window, they scrutinized Qin Yi.
"Hey, this junior brother, he's even more handsome in person than in the photos our master showed us!"
"I think so too! Look at his lips, his nose, they're so handsome!"
"His eyes are quite large too!"
"How can you tell his eyes are large when they're closed?"
"..."
The two of them continued to discuss in hushed tones as they examined Qin Yi.
Unsurprisingly, these two were none other than the two female disciples of the crazy old man, Qin Yi's senior sisters.
After leaving the island, they had returned to Shenzhou. Upon learning that Qin Yi was in Black Dragon City, they had rushed over without delay.
"I can tell his eyes are large!"
Xiao Bai glared at Xiao Man and continued, "And his eyelashes, they're so long, much longer than yours!"
Xiao Man was instantly displeased upon hearing this and retorted, "Nonsense, how are his eyelashes longer than mine? Has your eyesight deteriorated with age?"
"You're the one getting old! His eyelashes are indeed longer than yours!"
"Lan Zhibai, are you deliberately picking a fight?"
"Bring it on! Ren Shuman, do you think I'm afraid of you?"
Suddenly, the two of them started arguing again and were on the verge of a physical confrontation.
In such a situation, even a sound sleeper like Qin Yi would be woken up.
Qin Yi opened his eyes and saw two women standing over his bed, flexing their fists. Instinctively, he sat bolt upright.
"Who... who are you people???"
At this moment, Qin Yi was both shocked and bewildered.
Two people had entered his room in the middle of the night without him even noticing!
If the two of them had intended to harm him earlier, wouldn't he have died without knowing why?
Thinking of this, Qin Yi felt a chill down his spine. He reached for the bedside lamp and turned it on, then flashed several meters away, creating distance between himself and the two women.
He circulated his true qi, watching them warily, ready to act at any moment!
As the light came on, he saw them clearly: one wore a white dress, the other a pink one.
Both were stunningly beautiful women.
Their looks were exceptionally high, no less than Han Xin or Qin Lei.
However, Qin Yi didn't relax. He continued to watch them cautiously and asked again, "Who are you? How did you get in?"
"Heh heh..."
The woman in the white dress covered her mouth and chuckled, "Ren Shuman, see? Our junior brother is quite vigilant!"
The woman in the red dress looked at Qin Yi and nodded, "His vigilance is indeed good, but he sleeps like a log, like a pig!"
Qin Yi: "..."
The woman in the red dress then sensed Qin Yi's emotions and said, "Junior brother, don't be nervous. We're not bad people!"
"My name is Ren Shuman, and she is Lan Zhibai. We are both your senior sisters and have come specifically to find you!"
"???"
Qin Yi was utterly stunned and a million questions flooded his mind.
They were his senior sisters? When did he get senior sisters?
Lan Zhibai saw Qin Yi's disbelief and explained, "Oh, we are all disciples of the crazy old man. We were taken on as disciples by the crazy old man a few years before you were!"
Upon hearing the name of the crazy old man, Qin Yi's body trembled, and his vigilance towards the two women finally lessened a bit.
