Qin Ying, That Old Bastard

"Qin Ying, I didn't expect that you would not report this news to the organization immediately, but instead release it here without authorization. Does this mean you don't trust the organization?"

Chi Yan's voice brought Shen Hui back into control of the tense atmosphere that was about to break down.

Upon hearing this, everyone present was momentarily stunned, as if a gear being driven was jammed by a screw.

How come we were just talking about Shen Hui, and now it's suddenly turned into questioning Qin Ying?

Shen Hui, who had been expressionless but was actually panicking inside, was not so panicked at this moment.

Since Chi Yan Leader Chiyan has spoken, she must have some way to deal with it, so all I need to do is stand here quietly and act according to the situation.

But if even Chi Yan can't do anything... then Shen Hui will truly have no choice but to give up.

Qin Ying didn't seem surprised to see Chi Yan step forward; it was as if he had expected it. Facing her questioning, he calmly replied:

"Chi Yan, there are some things I don't want to say, but since you've asked, I'm not the only one who knows that Shen Hui appeared in the Wilderness Ruins, am I? I wasn't the first to know either, right, President Chi Yan?"

As he finished speaking, Qin Ying slowed down, and his tone became more varied and rhythmic when he mentioned the words "Chairman Chi Yan."

Anyone with a modicum of intelligence could tell that she was referring to President Chi Yan in her words.

The expressions on the faces of the others present became increasingly interesting; things seemed to be getting more and more amusing.

As for the World Association members like Chi Yan and Qin Ying, they are increasingly unable to understand it.

How come they both know everything, while we know nothing?

But regardless of the circumstances, Shen Hui should be the person directly involved in this matter.

Some people turned their attention back to Shen Hui, only to find that he seemed like an uninvolved bystander, calm on the surface but with a look of keen interest in his eyes.

Indeed, that was the case; Shen Hui felt like he was just a bystander.

Faced with Qin Ying's directness, Chi Yan smiled calmly, "Captain Qin Ying, you're getting impatient. Do you know why I kept it a secret?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Ying's heart skipped a beat. He couldn't help but think: Could there really be some special reason? But how could it be such a coincidence, and what happened there was clearly not simple.

As Qin Ying pondered, something suddenly occurred to him. If there really was something, why didn't Shen Hui say it from the beginning, but instead Chi Yan is bringing it up now?

Shen Hui, on the other hand, was more like an outsider who knew nothing about the situation!

Upon realizing this, Qin Ying immediately looked at Shen Hui, his eyes as gloomy as an eagle's.

"Alright, since Chi Yan says she's hiding something, there must be some hidden story. Shen Hui is the person involved, so let me hear what she has to say about what this hidden story is."

All eyes turned to Shen Hui again, and Chi Yan immediately spoke up, "This..."

However, he was interrupted by Qin Ying after only uttering one word.

"Hey, Chi Yan, I'm asking Shen Hui, not you. Shen Hui is the person involved, not you. You're the one who has to say everything. Are you the one involved, and Shen Hui doesn't know anything?"

"Right, President Chi Yan?"

Chi Yan was caught off guard by Qin Ying's question and was momentarily speechless.

As Shen Hui once again faced all eyes, a thousand curses ran through his mind.

"Holy crap, no way! They just got rid of the problem, and now they've thrown it back at me!"

"But I don't know anything about it. It seems like Chairman Chi Yan has some kind of plan, but what secrets could I possibly have to tell you!"

"Damn it, that Qin Ying, that old Bi Deng, just you wait!"

Shen Hui ranted, and even the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

On the surface, Shen Hui remained remarkably calm, unmoved and Mount Tai mountain in the face of numerous questioning, fearful, doubtful, disgusted, and even angry gazes.

Especially those eyes, which shimmered with a light like a vast starry sea, so deep and profound.

Qin Ying, who also had his own uncertainties, kept a close eye on Shen Hui's expression.

If there's a problem with what Chi Yan said, Shen Hui is completely unaware of it, he will most likely reveal some flaws.

If Qin Ying could seize these weaknesses, he would be confident of victory.

No matter how Qin Ying looked at him, Shen Hui Shen Hui seemed very calm, especially with his deep eyes that made it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

It's as if everything is under his control, and he's very confident in the current situation.

Especially the twitching at the corner of Shen Hui's mouth, which looked to Qin Ying like a confident, wicked smile, made Qin Ying's heart skip a beat again, and he suddenly had a bad feeling.

But Shen Hui's thoughts were already spinning like a tornado, trying to figure out how to answer Qin Ying.

It's definitely not something you can just make up casually, otherwise it'll be exposed immediately, and Chi Yan will surely have some way to deal with it. If what I say can be connected to it, then maybe nothing will happen.

The problem is that I don't know anything about it!

The atmosphere became tense again. Everyone was silent, waiting for Shen Hui's reply. They were eager to know what had happened in the Wilderness Ruins.

But what exactly was Shen Hui doing there, and how did he survive such terrifying fluctuations in world power?

"Hehe."

Helpless, Shen Hui chuckled twice to ease the tense atmosphere. Then, as if something had occurred to him, he immediately feigned a disdainful snort.

"Senior Qin Ying, I call you 'senior' out of respect, but let me be frank: what you've done today has caused quite a stir, and it's had a significant impact on me as well."

"Moreover, there are reasons for concealing things, and it's not that I can't tell you, but after it's confirmed, Senior Qin Ying, are you willing to bear all the consequences?"

Shen Hui didn't care about anything else. Since he didn't know anything, he might as well try to bluff him and see if it would work.

After hearing Shen Hui's explanation, Qin Ying did indeed have the thought of backing out.

Shen Hui didn't seem to be talking nonsense at all. If it were true, he didn't know what the consequences would be, and if he couldn't bear the responsibility...

But Qin Ying thought again, since they had already come this far, if there were any problems, he would have to take responsibility. So he might as well let Shen Hui explain what was going on!

Having thought this through, Qin Ying was completely reckless and made up his mind without the slightest hesitation.

"Heh, if it's true, I'll take responsibility. But if there are problems, Shen Hui, today will be an unforgettable day!"

"Grass!"

Shen Hui cursed inwardly upon hearing Qin Ying's reply, but just as he was thinking of how to get out of this predicament...

A towering figure suddenly descended upon the starry sky, instantly drawing everyone's attention. Shen Hui felt a sense of relief; the Grand Master Fan Hao had arrived!
