Chapter 249: Taking the Blood Pill Again, Secret Realm Trembles

Although the Blood Pill was about to take shape, it still needed a little more time, so Qin Xiao could only return to the fourth layer first. He could not stay too long, lest he arouse suspicion.

“Tower Lord Qin, we are almost done preparing. Do you think we can seal this place now?”

The chief captain came over to Qin Xiao and asked.

Indeed, the work was almost finished, and every section of the formation was in place.

“Ah, about that, let’s wait a moment longer. Even if all the formations are set up, a final inspection is still necessary. It would be bad if a flaw somewhere caused a problem with the formation, so running through an overall check one last time is very important.”

Qin Xiao had not expected these people to work so quickly, but the Blood Pill still required a short while, so he instructed them to inspect it once more.

“Every person’s designated point is reviewed right after it is set up, and we only move to the next point after confirming there are no errors. Is Tower Lord Qin questioning our proficiency with formations?”

Hearing Qin Xiao say this, another squad captain bristled. What did he mean by that? Was he questioning their professional competence?

Qin Xiao might be formidable and well known, but he was a layman when it came to formations. How dare he suggest they had been careless? Of course the captain resented it.

“Ah, let’s not get emotional. I’m not doubting your abilities. How should I put it? This is a combined formation, right? Every individual spot might be fine, but that doesn’t mean every connection point links up perfectly. A single part being fine doesn’t mean the whole thing is without flaw. A re-inspection is just a precaution. Even if everything checks out afterward, at least everyone feels more at ease, doesn’t it? If by chance we spot something imperfect, making a slight adjustment is even better, right?”

Qin Xiao insisted on a complete re-inspection. If they didn’t check, how was he supposed to stall for time? Besides, a re-check didn’t take much time anyway. Why be so stubborn? This was called being responsible.
