Early Golden Core Eighth Layer?
Liu Qian's eyes flashed, but then a hint of doubt came over him.
Such a coincidence?
But soon, Liu Qian's face returned to a carefree expression, he laughed exaggeratedly, and the pressure was instantly withdrawn.
"Okay!" Liu Qian strode forward and slapped Zhou Qi on the shoulder.
"Junior Brother Zhou is indeed a character!"
Zhou Qi didn't hide and let him take that shot.
Liu Qian took back his hand, the smile on his face softened a bit, and he put on a serious look.
"This Ascendant Path will be over soon. I believe that with Junior Brother Zhou's strength, it will not be a big problem to get into the top thirty." Liu Qian paused for a moment.
"I wonder what Junior Brother Zhou thinks about joining me, Myriad Dao Peak?"
Zhou Qi did not answer immediately.
He had indeed considered this matter for a long time, and the best solution at hand was to agree to Liu Qian.
But based on the thoughts of the person in front of me, I was afraid that I would be manipulated by him.
But if he refuses, does he have any better way to deal with the forces behind him?
Zhou Qi smiled calmly, "Senior Brother Liu shows his love, of course Zhou will not dare to be ignorant of good and evil."
This is his idea, agree to it first and then talk about it.
Although Li Han also came to negotiate a few days ago, after all, Scripture Repository Li Changshu alone cannot save him.
As for what happens next...
Zhou Qi The corners of the mouth are slightly raised, this is not to brag.
He was never the kind of person who would always rely on others.
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Qian's eyes lit up, and a smile instantly appeared on his face.
The smile this time was not the deliberately heroic one before, but a genuine joy.
"Okay!" Liu Qian slapped Zhou Qi on the shoulder, a little harder than before, "Okay! Okay! Okay!"
"Junior brother Zhou, from today on, you are my Myriad Dao Peak!" Liu Qian stopped smiling and looked at Zhou Qi with burning eyes.
"Don't worry, I will take care of Liu Qian if you get to Xianzong. If those old guys from Taichu Palace want to touch you, you have to get through me first."
Zhou Qi nodded and said nothing.
He didn't know how much of these words were true or false, but there was no need to care about them at the moment.
Just take what you need.
Liu Qian's laughter gradually subsided.
He turned around and waved behind him.
Shen Lie, Liu Mang and four other disciples Golden Core Realm quickly stepped forward and stood in a row behind them.
"Let's get to know each other." Liu Qian turned sideways and pointed at Zhou Qi,
"Zhou Qi, starting from today, is our Myriad Dao Peak."
Shen Lie looked Zhou Qi up and down, twitched the corner of his mouth, and said nothing.
He was obviously still worried about being treated as a swordsman last time, but he had to give Liu Qian face.
Liu Mang, on the other hand, gave his hand in return, with a much more sincere attitude than Shen Lie: "Junior Brother Zhou, I have admired you for a long time."
Zhou Qi nodded slightly as a return gift.
The four Golden Core Realm disciples clasped their fists and said, "I have met Senior Brother Zhou" in a respectful manner.
Their strength ranges from Golden Core Third Layer to Golden Core, Fifth Layer. Faced with a person who wants to win over even Liu Qian, they dare not show any slights.
Liu Qian waited for everyone to finish the ceremony and waved their hands to signal them to step back.
Liu Mang understood and retreated to the edge of the square with a few people, leaving space for Liu Qian and Zhou Qi.
Liu Qian turned around and faced Zhou Qi, the smile on his face completely disappeared.
What replaced it was a solemn and cold look with murderous intent.
"Junior Brother Zhou, since we are one of our own, I will say some things directly." His voice was very low, so low that only two people could hear it.
"Five days ago, we met a few people from the Primordial Hall." Liu Qian's tone darkened, and a coldness flashed in his eyes.
"Song Yuan is very powerful. I can't defeat him alone, but I can't keep him under siege."
"Although Shen Lie and Liu Mang are not weak in strength, they can only help me with some assistance. If we face Song Yuan head-on, they won't be able to survive."
"Three junior brothers were killed by Song Yuan that day," Liu Qian glanced at Zhou Qi calmly, "But Song Yuan didn't get any benefits either. He hit me with a sword and injured his left arm."
"My Sword Fiend is not a vulgar thing. His wound will not recover for ten days and a half."
Zhou Qi's brow moved slightly.
Song Yuan is injured, this is important information.
"This is a good opportunity," Liu Qian stared into his eyes and said word by word:
"I need you to help me kill Song Yuan!"
Zhou Qi didn't show any surprises. He knew from the beginning that Great Sun Dynasty would definitely protect him without conditions.
To be honest, Zhou Qi is the most suitable for this matter.
He is very powerful and has hatred against the Primordial Hall.
After pondering for a moment, Zhou Qi nodded and said, "I promise you!"
Even if Liu Qian doesn't mention it, he will still kill Song Yuan.
Liu Qian's joy instantly bloomed, the corners of his mouth raised, his eyebrows stretched, and a rough laughter burst out from his chest:
"Okay! Junior Brother Zhou is indeed a cheerful person!"
After that, he slapped Zhou Qi on the shoulder again, with a strong force, and laughter echoed in the empty square.
Everything looks perfectly normal.
But Zhou Qi has been on guard since the other seven people came here.
From the beginning to the end, my eyes never left Liu Qian's eyes.
When Liu Qian heard his agreement, his smile paused slightly at the corner of his eyes.
Then the pupils shrank slightly.
The last slap on the shoulder was obviously lighter than before, as if he was deliberately controlling the force.
Zhou Qi's heart moved slightly, but there was no expression on his face, there was still a smile on his face.
Liu Qian laughed a few times, took back his hand, and said in a much warmer tone, "With Junior Brother Zhou's help, our chances of winning will be much greater!"
Zhou Qi smiled and cupped his hands, the posture just right. "Senior Brother Liu, you are so polite. This is just the icing on the cake. Everything still depends on the leadership of Senior Brother Liu."
"Ugh--" Liu Qian waved his hand, pretending to be displeased, "Junior brother Zhou, there is no need to be humble. With your talent, you are a worthy figure among Myriad Dao Peak, and you can even compete for the position of Peak Master in the future!"
He paused and looked around Zhou Qi: "How is junior brother's current condition? Why don't we set off now?"
Zhou Qi showed hesitation and pondered for a moment before speaking, "Please wait a moment, Senior Brother Liu. I will be guarding the tower for days. Spiritual Power has suffered a lot of damage. Please allow me to adjust my breathing for a while before setting off."
"It should be." Liu Qian nodded and waved his hand, "Junior brother, just adjust your breath, we are not in a hurry."
Zhou Qi clasped his fists and sat cross-legged on a flat bluestone in the center of the square.
Startling Rainbow Saber is lying across his knees, his eyes are slightly closed, and Spiritual Power is running slowly around his body, like an invisible river flowing through his meridians.
The thought in his mind was that Liu Qian must have some hidden agenda. It would be better not to reveal Song Yuan's trump card that Li Han said.
Zhou Qi's breathing gradually stabilized, his face remained normal, and he seemed to be just recovering.
But his Divine Sense had already reached out silently.
Late Golden Core Eighth Layer and Divine Sense formed a line, like an invisible snake, snaking along the ground, deliberately going far away to avoid Liu Qian, and finally landed quietly on someone.
Liu Mang.
Zhou Qi chose Liu Mang for a reason.
Shen Lie is too reckless to hide things. Liu Qian If he really had a plan, he would most likely tell him in the end.
Liu Qian is too strong, and Divine Sense can easily be discovered by it if it probes over.
The remaining Golden Core Realm are in low-level situations and are not at the core of power at all, so the probability of knowing the plan is very low.
Only Liu Mang is smart and strong enough. He is also the cousin of Liu Qian. He is also loyal enough. He knows a lot and will not be as surprised as Shen Lie.
