While Qin Feng hesitated, Leng Yuexi spoke up, "Brother Feng, I think we can keep them."

Qin Feng looked at her with some surprise.

Leng Yuexi spoke slowly and clearly:

“Brother Feng, you said we wouldn’t stay here for too long, but someone still needs to look after this place.”

Neither you nor I, nor Ling'er, will stay here, and Senior Sister Yin and Xiao Fan won't be coming up so quickly either.

This person has the cultivation level of a Golden Immortal and has many disciples under his tutelage, making him a perfect fit.

Besides, we need to have our own people now, so it'll be easier to run errands and get things done.

Upon hearing this, the old man repeatedly agreed, saying, "This fairy is right; we will find her useful."

Qin Feng thought that made sense, so he nodded. It didn't matter whether he killed these people or not; if they were useful, he would keep them.

"Alright, then let's do as you say and spare their lives."

Leng Yuexi added, "These people have grudges against us, we can't just let them get away with it, I'll give them something nice."

Upon hearing this, the old man immediately became alarmed. What good stuff? It must not be good stuff.

Starting with the elders, Leng Yuexi placed restrictions on each of them, so that they would not dare to have any disloyal thoughts or rebel.

Qin Feng accepted the eighteen people and inquired about their situation from the old man again.

The old man's name was Ruan Guang, and he was an elder of the Black Mystic Sect.

Their sect leader was at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm, but he died at the hands of the Blood Shadow Sect's leader.

What made Qin Feng frown was that he learned from Ruan Guang that some of the Blood Shadow Sect's methods were somewhat similar to those of the Black Fiend Immortal Palace.
