C1037 Prepare to Set up the Array

Wu Keqin was the young man in the lead. He seemed unwilling to cause any trouble, so he ignored Chu Huaijun's question. He just smiled faintly and stood there quietly, as if he was watching a show.

Perhaps he had realized that his words earlier were indeed a little overboard, but Chu Huaijun saw that Wu Keqin did not respond. He also did not question Wu Keqin anymore. He only felt that he had lost face and his status. He also snorted coldly and turned his gaze elsewhere. He revealed a look of disdain.

A slightly older person behind Chu Huaijun took the opportunity to step forward and whisper in Chu Huaijun's ear for a while. After that, he retreated. Chu Huaijun's expression changed several times after hearing this. Finally, he said stutteringly, "Mr. Du, may I ask if the Chu Mutian you mentioned just now is an old man who has attained enlightenment?"

Du Qi nodded and laughed, "That's right!"

Chu Huaijun seemed to be a little agitated as he said, "The name of the ancestor with the highest seniority in my Chu Family is Chu Mutian. I wonder if the person Mr. Du is talking about is the ancestor of my Chu Family?"

Du Qi understood in his heart when he heard this, but he did not expose their relationship. He only smiled and said, "Could it be that Brother Wu Kqin and Brother Wu are also members of the twelve ancient families?"

When everyone saw Du Qi's sudden change in tone and could not keep up with Du Qi's intention, they could not help but be stunned. Shangguan Turui took the opportunity to reply, "That's right! Brother Wu and Brother Chu are the same. They are both from the twelve ancient families."

Du Qi asked, "Brother Wu, I wonder if you are related to Wu Lingbo?" Seeing Wu Keqin's thoughtful expression after hearing this, he did not reply immediately. Du Qi then added, "Wu Lingbo is also a senior expert, and also an old hag."

Wu Keqin was finally moved when he heard this and said in surprise, "It is rumored that the highest ranking ancestor of our Wu family is called Wu Lingbo, but I am not fated to meet him. I wonder if the person Mr. Du is talking about is our Wu family's old ancestor?"

Du Qi smiled and said, "Whether or not she is, in the future, when she comes, just ask her clearly. Since we met here, and I know the person with the same name as your family's old ancestor, it can be considered that we have a certain fate."

Yuwen Qianmo smiled and said, "Is Mr. Du going to be merciful again?"

Du Qi originally did not want to be meddlesome, but he was worried that many unpredictable things would happen when he seized the treasure. It was the ultimate method to fight with force. Since those old men had followed him, it was understandable for him to take care of them at the same time. Thus, they separately inquired about their relationship with Chu Huaijun and Wu Keqin.

However, Chu Huaijun and Wu Keqin did not know that Du Qi wanted to protect them. They only knew that Du Qi wanted to use this to win them over. He did not want to. He had the dominant position, so he did not care about what Yuwen Qianmo said. All of them seemed to be slightly unhappy, and Chu Huaijun couldn't help but ask directly, "Does Mr. Du's words require us to serve him?"

Du Qi didn't know what Chu Huaijun and Wu Keqin were thinking, so he still said, "That's right. I need you to help me find someone and ask them to gather here with you."

Du Qi had already thought it through. The terrain here was relatively high, and it could almost see the entire newly appeared canyon. More importantly, since Yuwen Qing had sent him and Yuwen Qianmo here, the danger would not affect this place, and the terrain behind them was relatively flat. Even if there was danger, they could retreat in time, so he wanted to gather all the people he protected here.

However, Chu Huaijun could not understand what Du Qi was thinking. He swept his gaze across the thirty plus people around him. He said unhappily, "Since Mr. Du wants to form an alliance with us, does he need to find some helpers? Besides, there are a lot of people here. If there are more people, won't our chances be even lower? "

Wu Keqin also said vigilantly, "It's not impossible for us to find someone for Mr. Du. We just don't know who Mr. Du is looking for. Could they do as Mr. Du wants? Besides, we might miss some opportunities to find someone. Wouldn't that be a huge loss for us?"

Although Wu Keqin's words were tactful, everyone understood what he meant. Du Qi had ordered them to look for someone because he wanted to use this to transfer them away. In order to monopolize the opportunity to appear, these words not only had the intention of rejecting him. It's a lot of blame, so much so that the people around... Especially the people from the Chu and Wu Families.

Du Qi knew that young people like Chu Huaijun and Wu Keqin believed that they were born with noble birth. His martial arts skills were unique among his peers, so he was naturally proud and arrogant. Therefore, he did not explicitly say that he would protect them to avoid hurting their self-esteem. Who would have thought that such a situation would occur? Du Qi could not help but feel deeply helpless. He could only sigh in his heart.

Yuwen Qianmo, however, did not have any qualms and said with a cold smile, "If Mr. Du ordered you to go and find someone, would you miss some opportunities? Do you think you can say it out loud? I can tell you in a responsible manner that the opportunities here are not something you can grasp with your abilities. Mr. Du did this out of good intentions. You actually don't appreciate it? Mr. Du, you don't need to trouble them. Just call those people over! " After saying that, Yuwen Qianmo gave Du Qi another suggestion.

Hearing Yuwen Qianmo's words, Wu Keqin and the others were even more dissatisfied. However, when they saw Yuwen Qianmo telling Du Qi not to trouble them, they held back their complaints and prepared to wait and see.

Seeing Du Qi hesitate after hearing this, Yuwen Qianmo knew Du Qi's concerns. He said again, "If Mr. Du is worried that those who do not want to work with him will follow, then he will set up a defensive formation here. As long as they enter the formation, they are not afraid of being disturbed. At that time, Mr. Du will be able to take the treasure without worry. "

Du Qi was overjoyed when he heard this. He spread out his divine sense and his expression suddenly changed. He said with a serious tone, "I didn't expect that there would be such an expert among these people."

Yuwen Qianmo could not help but ask in surprise when he heard that, "What kind of expert is it?"

Du Qi said, "Three of them are equivalent to my strength ten days ago. The other five are slightly weaker."

Everyone only said that Du Qi was deliberately mystifying, so they did not mind. Yuwen Qianmo was very clear that three of these people were equivalent to the strength of an early Nascent Soul cultivator. Although the other five people were slightly weaker, since Du Qi could mention them, their strength must not be underestimated, but Du Qi was already at the great circle of the Nascent Soul stage. Even if these eight people had the strength of the initial stage of the Nascent Soul Stage, Du Qi could still completely crush them. Therefore, he was not worried. He just said indifferently, "So it's like this. It seems that we need to set up a strong defensive formation."

With Yuwen Qianmo around, Du Qi naturally would not think about the specific details of setting up the formation. As long as he followed Yuwen Qianmo's instructions, it would be fine. So he said, "What do we need to do?"

Yuwen Qianmo looked around and pointed to the stone path where Chu Huaijun and the others were resting. "Mr. Du, please move that stone here first."

Everyone looked in the direction that Yuwen Qianmo pointed. They saw that the stone he was talking about was more than 20 feet tall. The bottom of the stone was at least four hundred and fifty feet tall. It was unknown how many people had been buried there. That wasn't a huge rock, it was clearly a small stone mountain, alright?
