Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, the card of the Spirit Evil Woman should not be played.
If the Spirit Evil Woman were indeed at the Nascent Soul Stage now, it would be fine, but currently, she is only at the Core Formation Stage.
Against those Nascent Soul Stage giants, she is not sufficient to ensure her own survival!
After just a moment’s thought, Qin Qi had already formulated a plan!
He quickly returned to Ming Lan’s side, without unnecessary words, firmly grabbed her alabaster arm, and swiftly headed in a certain direction.
"Let’s go!"
Although their actions were swift enough!
Nevertheless, the counterattack Murong Chan launched before she died still had its effect!
As Qin Qi scanned his Sea of Consciousness, he sensed countless talented individuals approaching from all directions.
This made Qin Qi take a deep breath, "It seems that in the end, we couldn’t avoid this!"
Being the first to enter the central area presents a colossal temptation to anyone!
Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Qin Qi simply pulled Ming Lan and quietly waited in place.
The time was not very long, about dozens of breaths.
A dozen talents first appeared from the southeast direction.
A few breaths later, another dozen talents chased after them from Qin Qi’s rear.
In no time at all, dozens of people assembled from all directions. Judging by the grand lineup, talents from the Murong Family, Wei Family, Duan Family, and Ming Family were all present!
Among them were several Qin Qi recognized.
Among them, Wei Ling’Er from the Wei Family and Murong Ping from the Murong Family were actually there!
And looking carefully, it was not hard to see that there were also several talents with cultivation high, reaching the Fake Core Stage like Mo Qianyi!
"Are you Qin Qi?"
At this moment, in the camp of the Duan Family among the four elite families, a young talent around twenty-five or six years old stepped forward.
His stature was diminutive, his gaze fierce, but his aura nevertheless commanded respect.
Upon inspection, he too had reached the high Fake Core Stage.
Many people started discussing fervently.
"Duan Qingshan!"
"One of the top talents of the Duan Family, who would have thought he’d also break through to the Fake Core Stage before entering the Secret Realm this time!"
Qin Qi glanced at Duan Qingshan, hands behind his back, "Yes, that’s right; it’s me!"
Duan Qingshan continued, "So, you were the first to enter the central area?"
"Yes!" Qin Qi replied.
Duan Qingshan then smiled slyly, "Seeing the current situation, I think you understand. Look, hand over your storage pouch obediently, and the Duan Family can keep you safe!"
As these words fell, the other family members could no longer stay seated.
"Duan Qingshan, what do you mean?"
"Hand over the storage pouch to you? Such wishful thinking."
"Qin Qi, here’s an idea: hand over the storage pouch to our Wei Family, and Wei Xuefu can ensure you remain unharmed!"
From the Wei Family camp, a young man with quite a handsome appearance also stepped forward. Judging from his aura, he too had reached the Fake Core Stage.
Duan Qingshan smirked, "Hehe, Wei Xuefu, I suppose it’s up to Qin Qi to decide who to give the storage pouch to?" Wei Ling’Er wanted to say something from within the crowd.
But within the Wei Family, although her talent was high, she was not top-notch. Even if she wished to speak, she had no place to do so.
"Qin Qi, I’m asking you a question, do you hear me?" Duan Qingshan shouted arrogantly, clearly dismissing Qin Qi.
Upon hearing, Qin Qi’s smile turned icy, hands still behind his back.
He spoke coldly, "What if I said I won’t hand it to anyone?"
Upon hearing these words, Duan Qingshan and Wei Xuefu exchanged a look, both sneering.
"Oh?"
"Just as I thought; people die for wealth, birds die for food!"
Duan Qingshan scoffed, "Seems you still don’t grasp your situation. Although I don’t know how you were the first to enter the central area, to hold onto so many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, you need the strength to do so!"
Wei Xuefu lazily replied, "Duan Qingshan, you go on babbling, because that storage pouch is mine!"
With that, Wei Xuefu’s form flashed, directly closing in on Qin Qi.
Seeing this, Duan Qingshan also became anxious and quickly moved.
Witnessing this scene, Murong Ping, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke up, "Duan Qingshan, Wei Xuefu, I have a few words for Qin Qi, and surely you have no objections!"
When Duan Qingshan and Wei Xuefu heard Murong Ping’s voice, they paused slightly.
In their eyes, a trace of concern flickered.
The two exchanged looks but ultimately said nothing more.
Satisfied, Murong Ping then subtly parted her red lips towards Qin Qi, "Qin Qi, don’t be impulsive. Both Wei and Duan families have reached the Fake Core Stage, to engage them, there’s hardly a chance for you to win!"
"I know, as the first to enter the central area, you must have acquired a lot of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. No one would willingly want to give them up!"
"I, Murong Ping, don’t want all of your possessions, merely fifty percent of what’s in your storage pouch. If you agree, I will overlook the fact you killed Murong Chan."
"Furthermore, I can ensure you leave the Land of Overflowing Spirits safely and would gladly consider you a friend!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Qi was somewhat surprised.
This Murong Ping, compared to Duan Qingshan and Wei Xuefu, certainly seemed more sincere.
However, unfortunately, no matter how sincere Murong Ping was, he could not truly hand over his storage pouch and then proceed with a distribution.
With this thought, Qin Qi responded expressionlessly via sound transmission, "Lady Murong, I appreciate your goodwill. Unfortunately, I have no plans to distribute the Spirit Plants in my storage pouch!"
Upon hearing this, Murong Ping’s face darkened.
This Qin Qi was somewhat ungrateful.
Does he really think he can escape from such a siege of so many people?
Duan Qingshan then spoke up, "Fairy Murong, how did the discussion with Qin Qi go?"
"Duan Qingshan, you’re quite hasty, aren’t you? What do you mean by your words, are you rushing me?" Murong Ping scolded.
Duan Qingshan quickly laughed obsequiously, "Well, of course not!"
Only then did Murong Ping coldly snort, sweeping her sleeves as she returned to the Murong Family’s camp.
Duan Qingshan and Wei Xuefu saw this and smiled mockingly.
It wasn’t hard to conclude that Qin Qi’s discussion with Murong Ping had clearly failed!
Seeing this, Duan Qingshan coldly said, "Wei Xuefu, I think I’ll go first. Your Wei Family’s True Wood Returning Origin Sword doesn’t seem suitable for confronting the enemy!"
Wei Xuefu retorted fiercely, "Duan Qingshan, let’s see if my True Wood Returning Origin Sword is suitable or not by using you first for practice?"
The two continued to argue.
Unsuspectingly, Qin Qi moved slightly, turning to Ming Lan, "Senior Sister Ming, stand behind me!"
Ming Lan bit her red lips, clearly worried in her enchanting eyes.
However, she knew well that there was nothing she could do, so she obediently moved towards the rear.
Meanwhile, Qin Qi calmly looked at the two of them, "I suggest the both of you stop squabbling. Why don’t you come at me together?"
