Qin Feng's eyes flickered; it turned out she was trying to win over Nie Rong. Qi Zhu looked at Qin Feng expectantly, realizing that her intentions were indeed directed towards Nie Rong.
Qin Feng smiled and said, "You should talk to Nie Shu."
Qi Zhu nodded, "I know, but I thought you might persuade Nie Da Ren a bit? The capital is quite unsettled right now."
Qin Feng replied, "I can only say I'll try to talk to him; whether Nie Shu is willing or not depends on him."
Qi Zhu exclaimed excitedly, "Then thank you very much!"
Huang Xu, who was nearby, was bewildered. Wasn't this supposed to be about winning over Qin Feng? How did it turn into a matter concerning Nie Rong?
He quickly nudged Qi Zhu and whispered, "Seventh Sister, Qin Feng—"
Qi Zhu came back to her senses and looked at Qin Feng earnestly. "Qin Zi, why don't you join my camp?"
She believed that Qin Feng would not refuse.
Qin Feng smiled and shook his head. "Qi Zhu, please forgive me; I think I'll pass."
Qi Zhu was taken aback; she hadn't expected Qin Feng to decline. Furrowing her brows, she asked, "Are you considering other princes?"
"No, I just don't want to join any faction," Qin Feng replied calmly.
Qi Zhu felt that Qin Feng was just being modest. She had heard from Xiao Ba that his strength was impressive, but he was probably only at the Golden Core Realm. As long as he wasn't at the Yuan Shen Realm, he could easily find himself in danger.
She reminded herself that her opinion of him was entirely based on Xiao Ba's reputation.
"Thank you for your suggestion; I understand," Qin Feng said in a flat tone.
Huang Xu grew anxious. "Brother Qin, my Seventh Sister is truly a good choice; she can help you avoid a lot of trouble."
Qin Feng glanced at Huang Xu and said, "Huang Xiong, right now I just want to participate in the Provincial Examination. If I fail, it won't matter what anyone says."
"How could you possibly fail?" Huang Xu couldn't believe it; he knew Qin Feng's talent well.
Qi Zhu's eyes sparkled for a moment. This person seemed to have some self-awareness. If he could make the list, it would be worth seriously courting him.
Thinking this, she smiled and said, "Qin Zi, you're certainly exceptional. How about this: if you make the Golden List, feel free to come find me at Lord's Mansion anytime."
Qin Feng chuckled softly, genuinely puzzled by her confidence.
He merely nodded in response, not fully satisfied. Qi Zhu, however, stood up, indicating that she would not disturb Qin Zi any longer.
"Lao Hu, see our guests out," Qin Feng suddenly said.
Huang Xu sighed helplessly. "Brother Qin, I can still come by, right?"
"Of course, Huang Xiong is always welcome. I will certainly make sure to receive you properly," Qin Feng replied with a smile.
The two followed Old Fox out, naturally not through the front door but by climbing over the wall.
Qin Feng shook his head slightly. Qi Zhu was not capable; although her Destiny Energy was purple, she hadn’t even transformed it yet and was inferior to Zhenbei Wang. Moreover, her Destiny Energy was shrouded in a dark aura, suggesting that she would soon face a Life and Death Tribulation, and it was uncertain whether she could survive it.
Suddenly, Qin Feng raised his head and said lightly, "After watching for so long, it’s time for you to show yourselves."
With a flicker, two Daoist figures appeared before Qin Feng. The black-clad man in front looked at him with excitement in his eyes.
That gaze made Qin Feng break out in a cold sweat; he couldn’t help but frown. "What are two experts from the Yuan Shen Realm sneaking into my residence for?"
"Hmm? You can see our cultivation level?" a hoarse voice exclaimed in surprise.
Another person smugly replied, "So what if he can see our cultivation level?"
Qin Feng looked at the two with curiosity; if they hadn’t shown any malice, he would have already summoned Black Python. However, he remained vigilant; being approached by two Yuan Shen Realm experts right after arriving in the capital was no trivial matter.
"Are you here looking for me or Nie Shu?" Qin Feng asked.
