Special Expert of Beauty CEO

”Everyone, let me introduce a new member of our group, Zhou Yang, haha, my brother. We’ll be heading into the Ghost Mountain Range together tonight.”

Qin Tian brought Zhou Yang in front of Bai Xiyue, Xue Yao, and the others, introducing him with great ceremony.

However, despite Qin Tian’s ”ceremony,” Xue Yao and Bai Xiyue seemed uninterested.

Especially Chi Ren, who was behind Bai Xiyue. He frowned directly, ”We can tolerate your joining, which is already exceptional. But you want to bring someone else along? Impossible!”

Chi Ren glared at Zhou Yang, sneering, ”Your friend has the status of a slave, with cultivation only at the Early Stage of Qi Refinement. Him, joining us?”

Initially, Chi Ren thought Qin Tian might have some purpose for getting Zhou Yang to join them. But after probing Zhou Yang’s cultivation level, he laughed outright. Someone of that cultivation level is useless before their skills; killing Zhou Yang would take just one move.

But bringing along such a burden, Chi Ren naturally was very unwilling, and moreover, he felt it lowered their status.

”Hey, don’t look down on people, okay? Friends, we’re all friends here.” Qin Tian mediated, while Zhou Yang looked awkward.

Just being around experts like Bai Xiyue made him feel uncomfortable, as if breathing was difficult due to the aura they emanated.

”Qin Tian, it’s not that we don’t want to bring your friend along, but it’s truly not feasible.”

Xue Yao walked beside Qin Tian with a rather relaxed expression, ”Your friend is too low in cultivation. If he follows us into the Ghost Mountain Range, let me put it this way, he’d certainly die.”

Xue Yao looked at Zhou Yang, chuckling, ”I’m not trying to scare you. Even the weakest Fierce Beast in the Ghost Mountain Range can’t be defeated without being at the Middle Stage of Qi Refinement. He’s at the Early Stage… never mind ghosts and traps; a single Fierce Beast attacking would surely kill. What do you think?”

After Xue Yao spoke, Bai Xiyue added, ”If you insist on bringing your friend, I have no objections.”

At this moment, even Chi Ren had no objections.

Qin Tian scanned their faces with his eyes to confirm that they were not exaggerating, and he immediately felt worried.

Ghost Mountain Range, those who trespass will die.

This statement did not seem like an exaggeration; it appeared to be true.

Zhou Yang, at the Early Stage of Qi Refinement, was indeed too weak...

Upon hearing this, Qin Tian took a deep breath. Seeing Zhou Yang’s gaze turning to him, Qin Tian felt conflicted.

If he brings Zhou Yang in, Zhou Yang is likely doomed.

If he leaves Zhou Yang outside, alone, and if other immortality cultivators want to humiliate or rob him, he truly has no ability to resist. Having finally reunited with his brother, Qin Tian cannot let him fall into danger again.

Of course, Qin Tian could stay with Zhou Yang and not enter the Ghost Mountain Range.

This is where Qin Tian felt conflicted because, having come this far, his instincts told him that this journey to the Ghost Mountain Range would not be fruitless. So, he felt unwilling.

”Boss, what should I do?” Zhou Yang was at a loss.

Qin Tian waved his hand and went straight to Bai Xiyue, saying, ”Miss Bai, can I discuss something with you?”

”Speak,” Bai Xiyue said.

”Haha, could we talk in private?”

Bai Xiyue glanced at Qin Tian, and for some reason, she did not refuse his proposal.

The two walked under a nearby tree, and Qin Tian cut to the chase, ”Miss Bai, I see you have six subordinates. Ahem, when we enter the Ghost Wall later, could you spare one to escort my brother to the Qilin Mountain Sect? Can you do me this favor?”

This time, Qin Tian genuinely sought Bai Xiyue’s help.

This woman, although she appeared murderous, Qin Tian did not have a bad impression of her.

”Are you a member of the Qilin Mountain Sect?” Bai Xiyue asked Qin Tian. Before he could respond, she continued, ”All my people need to enter the Ghost Wall. Why should I help you? Furthermore, to protect a useless slave?”

For such people, of such status, they look down on slaves with low cultivation. Qin Tian had become accustomed to this.

”He was once a slave, but has always been my brother. We’ve been separated for over a year, and now we’ve finally met again. I can’t let him be in any danger.”

Qin Tian earnestly said, ”Miss Bai, do me this favor, and I’ll remember it.”

Bai Xiyue said, ”Why should I help you? If you fear for your brother’s safety, you can leave with him now, and there’ll be no danger.”

”If I wanted to leave, I wouldn’t be standing here talking to you. I want to stay because I believe I can assist you, even though I’m unaware of your plans.”

”Haha, you can help us? Are you that confident?”

”If you leave a subordinate behind, I believe I’ll be more useful than them. Trust me this once, help me, how about it?”

Qin Tian’s eyes fixed on Bai Xiyue, making her uncomfortable, not because she felt offended, but because Qin Tian’s gaze seemed to carry an irresistible pressure, which she had strongly felt before.

”Do me this favor, and I’ll repay you tenfold!”

Qin Tian saw the hint of hesitation in Bai Xiyue’s eyes and cupped his hands in salute.

”I’ll consider it.”

Bai Xiyue glanced at Qin Tian and walked back.

”Ye Mo, take him to the Qilin Mountain Sect immediately, ensure he arrives safely!”

Bai Xiyue spoke to a handsome man.

The handsome man was stunned, evidently not expecting such an order from Bai Xiyue, ”Protector, what is this…?”

”I have my plans, just follow my instructions.”

”But… as you command!”

Even if Ye Mo didn’t understand Bai Xiyue’s order, Qin Tian could tell that the Demon Sect emphasized strict hierarchy, with absolute control of superiors over subordinates.

”Ye Mo, thank you. Please escort my brother to the Left Pulse of Qilin Mountain Sect, deliver him to someone named Gao Dazhuang, and tell him that Zhou Yang is my blood brother. Ask him to take good care of him.”

Qin Tian said to Ye Mo.

Ye Mo replied coldly, ”I can only take him to the entrance of the Left Pulse of the Qilin Mountain Sect. The rest is up to him.”

Hearing Ye Mo’s words, Qin Tian was a bit annoyed, but on second thought, it made sense. Ye Mo was from the Demon Sect, and the Qilin Mountain Sect, being a righteous sect, would pose danger to Ye Mo if discovered!

”Alright, thank you!”

After speaking, Qin Tian took out his Storage Bag filled with Spirit Stones and handed it to Zhou Yang, saying, ”Old Zhou, once you reach your destination, show this Storage Bag and tell them you’re my brother. My sect people will take you in.”

”Wow, boss, you’ve apprenticed yourself?” Zhou Yang exclaimed joyfully.

Qin Tian nodded, watching Ye Mo fly away with Zhou Yang on his sword. He turned back to look at the Ghost Wall, secretly thinking, having sacrificed so much, this time he must not return empty-handed!
