"Chi Yan Empire?" Fu Jun and the others looked at each other. Obviously, they had never heard of the Chi Yan Empire before. They looked confused.
Qin Shi wasn't surprised. After all, Fu Jun and the others were born in the same place as the other disciples of the Chaotic Lands. They were either rich or noble. But they were from the barren north of the Barren Continent. Chi Yan Empire was like a sesame seed compared to them.
Qin Shi smiled confidently and said, "Yes, it's not rich, nor is it a famous place. But it's very peaceful. It's a place where you can stay and escape from the Chaotic Lands."
"Oh, there's such a paradise in the world that can avoid the conflicts of the Eight Territories?"
"Actually, it's not a paradise. It's just my hometown." Qin Shi smiled faintly.
"Your hometown?" Fu Jun and the others were surprised.
Qin Shi didn't hide it and nodded. "Yes, it's where I was born. In fact, the reason why Chi Yan could help you escape from the Chaotic Lands is mostly because of the Sword Sect's protection. Chi Yan's Hundred Tide Land is also a Chaotic Lands. Fortunately, when I joined the Sword Sect, Elder Feng Sha promised me that the Sword Sect would protect Chi Yan from the Chaotic Lands. I think it's the best place for you to go."
Hearing Qin Shi's words, Fu Jun and the others fell silent.
Seeing them fall silent, Qin Shi said indifferently, "Of course, I also know that a small empire like the Scarlet Flame Empire might not be looked upon favorably by you all. Letting you all go is truly a waste of your talents. So, it's still up to you all to decide."
"No, no, no, Brother Qin Shi, you're worrying too much. For people like us to atone for our crimes, it's already a great honor for us to have a place to rest in this world. Besides, Brother Qin Shi, you've helped us so much. I'm just thinking that although we don't have many people, there are still over a hundred of us. If we go to Crimson Flame, we can't just eat and drink from you, right?"
Hearing this, Qin Shi had a joyful expression on his face. "Regarding this point, there's no need for my husband's elder brother to worry. Although I'm not like all of you, I'm still able to bear the weight of the mouths of a few hundred people. Also, I have a request for all of you. To tell you all the truth, there's a sect in the Crimson Flame Region named the Qin Sect."
"Qin Sect?"
Fu Jun and the others were slightly startled. Although they had never heard of Chi Yan, they had more or less heard of the two words, Qin Zong.
"I've heard of this Qin Sect before. It's a rising star that's been active in the north for the past few years. It's rumored that the sect leader of this Qin Sect is a youth that's only in his early twenties."
You Qing, the head of the Mist Alliance's secret department, spoke softly. After speaking, he looked at Qin Shi and suddenly thought of something. He exclaimed in surprise, "Brother Qin Shi, you can't be the sect leader of this Qin Sect, right?"
Qin Shi didn't hide anything and lightly smiled as he nodded.
"Heavens, I didn't think that you would actually have such a shocking identity?" Shen Fengchun exclaimed in surprise. He then laughed wildly, "Amazing, amazing!"
Qin Shi spoke his thoughts. "So, I also hope that all of you can go to Chi Yan and help me out in the Qin Sect. Right now, the Qin Sect has already reached a bottleneck in its development. If it wants to continue developing, it will definitely clash with the eight regions. But with the current strength of the Qin Sect, no matter which region it is in, it's undoubtedly like striking a rock with an egg."
"That's not a problem. That way, what I'm worried about doesn't exist anymore."
Fu Jun indifferently smiled. Then, his eyes dimmed a little. He bitterly sighed, "Hehe, I didn't think that in the end, I would become your subordinate."
"Brother Fu Jun, what are you talking about? You will always be my big brother!"
"Alright, I understand. You are a heavenly sculpted hero. You have more opportunities than me. I will do my best to help you. However, there are two things I still want to tell you."
"What is it, brother Fu Jun? Just tell me," replied Qin Shi straightforwardly.
Fu Jun turned around and looked at everyone. Qin Shi could see the same worry in everyone's eyes. Fu Jun took a deep breath and said, "The first thing is, how can we leave the Chaotic Lands? The Chaotic Lands won't let us go easily."
"Brother Fu Jun, you don't need to worry about that. Since I suggested that you go to Chi Yan, I naturally have a way to send you out of the Chaotic Lands." Qin Shi smiled.
"Yeah, I'm not too worried about that. I'm actually worried about the second thing."
"What is it?"
"My brother's family."
Fu Jun narrowed his eyes. There was a hint of hostility in his eyes. "If we are just executed in the Chaotic Lands, perhaps our families won't be affected. However, once we leave the Chaotic Lands, even if the Chaotic Lands won't chase us to Chi Yan Empire, our families will definitely suffer revenge."
Hearing this, Qin Shi was silent for a while. That was true. It was also his biggest worry when he left the Chaotic Lands. Fu Jun and the others weren't as lucky as him to have the protection of the Sword Sect. So, he really couldn't think of a good solution right now.
"I'll think about it. If it doesn't work, Brother Fu Jun, why don't you talk to your families and move to the Hundred Tide Zone? I know that your families are more or less relatives of the royal family and have thousands of years of history. It's not realistic to ask your families to move easily. However, as long as you're alive, there's hope. Even ants are greedy for life. It's better than being destroyed by the Chaotic Zone, right?"
Fu Jun and the others looked at each other helplessly and sighed. "That's the only thing we can do now."
In the blink of an eye, while they were talking, Qin Shi and the others returned to the Sword Sect's resting area.
"Brat, you're back?"
As soon as Qin Shi entered, a disrespectful voice rang out. Even with his eyes closed, Qin Shi could guess that it was Fengsha's second brother.
Feng Sha's shadow flashed and the old man's body appeared behind Qin Shi. He glared at Qin Shi with a reproachful expression and snorted, "Brat, did you go out to cause trouble again?"
"I didn't!"
"How dare you say you didn't?
I just wiped your ass for you. Do you know that?
Before you came back, how many elders of the Chaotic Lands' Law Enforcement Pavilion did I help you get rid of? "
Feng Sha's eyes widened. He grabbed Qin Shi's ear and shouted, "You! You! How can I explain to you so you'll remember?
Tell me, what's going on? "
Qin Shi quickly opened Feng Sha's eyes and glared at him angrily. "Old man, you don't want the Wraith Sign anymore, do you?"
"You, you, you … you're going to piss me off!"
At the mention of the Wraith Sign, Feng Sha was visibly discouraged. "Hmph, for the sake of the Wraith Sign, I'll let you go this time."
Qin Shi leaned against the wall. His eyes were fierce. "Haha, I didn't expect that they would come to me before I did."
"Senior Feng Sha, there is something I would like to ask of you," Qin Shi said to Feng Sha with a serious expression.
"No, don't ask me." Feng Sha rejected him reflexively.
This made Qin Shi look desperate. "I haven't said it yet. Do you have to reject me so decisively?"
"You brat, you're asking me alone. Nothing good will come out of it. It's better not to say it." Feng Sha waved his hand in disdain.
Qin Shi shook his head helplessly. Was his trust level that low?
Without a choice, he could only use emotion to tempt Feng Sha. "Five hundred Wraith Signs!"
"No, no!"
"One thousand Wraith Signs!" Qin Shi raised one finger.
"Really?"
Feng Sha was visibly shaken. However, he shook his head again. "No, no, it won't be easy for you to ask me. I can't compromise so quickly."
"Two thousand!" Qin Shi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Is this fine?"
"Three thousand, no less than three thousand!"
"Fine, let alone three thousand, four thousand should be fine, right?"
"It's a deal!"
Feng Sha's eyes lit up. Fearing that Qin Shi would go back on his word, he chased after him and asked, "Speak, what's the matter?"
Seeing Feng Sha's smug expression, Qin Shi couldn't help but frown. "Help me send my brothers to the Crimson Flame Empire."
Feng Sha rolled his eyes and looked at Fu Jun and the others.
Subconsciously, Fu Jun and the others shivered.
"What a terrifying pressure!"
From afar, Fu Jun and the others hadn't sensed Feng Sha's strength. Now that they were facing him, they realized that Feng Sha's cultivation wasn't any weaker than the Third Elder of the Chaotic Lands.
"Heavens, Qin Shi was actually bargaining with someone of this level?" The moment they recalled the conversation between Qin Shi and Feng Sha, the corners of everyone's mouths twitched involuntarily.
"They're disciples of the Chaotic Lands?" Feng Sha asked.
Qin Shi didn't hide it and nodded. "Yes, but there's no place for them in the Chaotic Lands now. The Chaotic Lands wants to kill them first."
"Is it because of you?" Feng Sha rolled his eyes at Qin Shi.
"Do you have to be so direct?" Qin Shi shrugged.
Feng Sha didn't answer. After a moment of silence, he said, "This isn't easy. Even though the Sword Sect is the leader of the eight zones, this is an internal matter of the Chaotic Lands. If we interfere too much, it could cause a war."
"I don't care. I've agreed to give you four thousand Demon Charms. The rest is up to you." Qin Shi smiled strangely.
"You little bastard!"
Feng Sha glared at Qin Shi. After thinking for a while, he said to Fu Jun and the others, "You guys, come with me. I will find someone to send you out of the Chaotic Lands with a spatial formation. Whether or not you can make it to the Crimson Flame Empire depends on your luck."
"Thank you, Master," Fu Jun and the others hurriedly replied.
Qin Shi smiled. He knew that Fengsha would definitely have a way. As for whether they could escape to Scarlet Flame, it was actually Fengsha testing Fu Jun and the others on his behalf. Along the way, Fengsha would definitely place people beside Fu Jun and the others to protect them. Qin Shi smiled happily.
Feng Sha agreed and turned to Fu Jun and the others.
