Qi Xiao used some leverage he had over Qiu Qianren to threaten him into letting Qi Xiao take over the defense of the treasury!
This was probably the greatest concession Qiu Qianren had ever made!
In Qiu Qianren's view, if Qi Xiao entered the treasury and took some treasures, at most he might devour those Supreme Elders' bodies, and that was the limit... Anyway, even the Hall Master found the presence of those Supreme Elders somewhat unpleasant!
If Qi Xiao really devoured the Supreme Elders' bodies, at most, the Elders Council would cause trouble for Qi Xiao.
As for losing some treasures, well, with such a large warehouse, it couldn't be completely emptied, right? Whatever Qi Xiao took would have to be returned in the end!
However, if Ye Fan took action and emptied the entire treasury, how could that be a trivial matter?
The people in the Soul Hall now hated Ye Fan to the bone, and if they saw him, wouldn't they go all out?
