Chapter 144: Chapter 144: It’s a Pity Not to Be in the Entertainment Industry

Qin Yi took Duan Yiyi back the way they came, arriving at the underground palace above.

The Blood Flood Dragon followed Qin Yi closely like a personal bodyguard.

"Master, this entrance can’t be discovered by anyone," the Blood Flood Dragon suddenly said.

Qin Yi was slightly surprised, "Why?"

The Blood Flood Dragon said, "The reason I hid in the lake below is because there’s a Purple Sun Spiritual Bud about to mature at the bottom."

Qin Yi’s eyes flickered, "Purple Sun Spiritual Bud, a mid-grade Spirit Grass."

"Yes, Master, this is why I came here from the Hundred Fold Ridge in the north."

What bad luck for the Blood Flood Dragon, encountering someone like Qin Yi just after coming from the Hundred Fold Ridge.

Qin Yi asked, "How long until it matures?"

The Blood Flood Dragon said, "In another year, it will mature."

Qin Yi nodded slightly and directly sealed the lid of the stone coffin.

Immediately, Qin Yi formed a seal with his hands, and streaks of purple light shot out from his hands. In an instant, a complex array appeared on the stone coffin lid, soon fading away.

"An array!" the Blood Flood Dragon exclaimed.

Qin Yi gave him a surprised look, "You actually recognize arrays?"

"Master understands arrays, but in my inheritance, people who understand arrays are extremely rare."

Qin Yi was startled, are arrays that difficult to understand?

His bloodline is rare, he knows arrays are rare, does this mean a genius like him is also rare?

Qin Yi set up a defensive formation, just a level one array, but it’s impossible for anyone to open the coffin lid unless their cultivation is much stronger than Qin Yi’s.

...

Exiting the underground palace, arriving outside, Qin Yi discovered it was already dark.

He and Duan Yiyi had been underground for an entire day.

Returning to the car, Duan Yiyi drove back.

But Duan Yiyi had a tight expression, and was uncharacteristically silent on the way.

Qin Yi found it strange, "What’s wrong with you?" This little girl usually chattered incessantly, but now she was so quiet.

Duan Yiyi glanced at Qin Yi, her eyes aggrieved like a neglected young wife, "Honey, I’m in trouble."

"What do you mean?"

"Last time I sneaked out, ended up with double the grounding time. This time, coming back so late, my dad will definitely find out and double it again. This time it might be four months."

Qin Yi was surprised, "That long?"

"When we make mistakes, the grounding time increases exponentially."

Qin Yi curiously asked, "You don’t go to school?"

"I don’t. We have the best teachers at home, so I have to take classes at home every day."

Qin Yi smiled, "Then just stay home, study hard, and make progress every day."

Duan Yiyi looked resentful at Qin Yi, "Honey, being grounded for four months, I won’t see you. You’ll definitely forget about me."

Qin Yi found it hard to meet Duan Yiyi’s eyes, suddenly feeling like a jerk toying with her emotions and then abandoning her.

"Honey, you don’t care about me at all."

"Boo-hoo..."

Qin Yi didn’t take it seriously; this mischievous girl couldn’t trick him with fake crying.

However, when he saw the crystal tears rolling down her cheeks, he felt bad.

"Boo-hoo..."

Qin Yi: "..."

This skill was amazing, to cry on cue, more professional than an actress.

"Alright, stop crying. I’ll talk to your dad later," Qin Yi said helplessly.

"Really?" Duan Yiyi’s eyes immediately brightened, "Honey, you better not lie to me."

Qin Yi smiled faintly, "I won’t lie to you."

"Honey, I knew you treat me the best."

Duan Yiyi’s voice was cheerful, her smile blossomed like a flower.

Qin Yi was speechless, her speed of changing moods was incredible.

"It’s a pity you’re not an actress."

Duan Yiyi giggled, "I did plan to become an actress, even auditioned once, but that coach tried to exploit me."

Qin Yi frowned slightly, "And then?"

"And then I broke him."

Qin Yi: "..."

He should have expected this outcome; would Duan Yiyi’s advantage be so easy to take?

That coach was blind, not knowing about the Duan Family’s might beforehand?

"Finally, my dad said he’d start an entertainment company for me, but I realized the industry was too dirty, so I lost interest. Cultivation is more fun."

Qin Yi was speechless, indeed the wealthy Duan Family, starting an entertainment company for their kid like other families buying a toy.

"Honey, I’ll introduce you to my mom sometime."

Qin Yi was slightly stunned, "Why do I need to meet your mom?"

"Because an ugly son-in-law eventually has to meet the mother-in-law, and you’re not ugly. What are you afraid of? My mom’s got a great personality and is really beautiful; you’ll surely like her."

Qin Yi: "..."

Why did that sound so weird?

Duan Yiyi dropped Qin Yi near the Hidden Dragon Bay Villa, reluctantly saying goodbye.

"Master, why do you sit in a wheelchair?"

The Blood Flood Dragon suddenly spoke, startling Qin Yi, having almost forgotten it was there.

Qin Yi said, "Don’t ask what you shouldn’t. When we get home, be quiet. If you dare make a sound, I’ll chop you up and stir-fry you."

The Blood Flood Dragon shivered in fear and quickly shut its mouth, knowing its master could be ruthless, better to be cautious.

When Qin Yi returned home, Xia Yanbing, Dong Jinsu, and Xia Yujiang were watching TV.

They seemed accustomed to Qin Yi’s early departures and late returns now.

"Have you eaten?" Xia Yanbing asked.

Qin Yi initially wanted to shake his head, but seeing Dong Jinsu’s ugly old face, he nodded slightly.

"Treating this home like a hotel? At this time, even if you haven’t eaten, who will cook for you?"

Even though Qin Yi said nothing, he couldn’t escape Dong Jinsu’s harsh words.

"Useless, the family owes so much money, and you’re no help at all."

"Going out early and coming back late every day, why not just die outside?"

Qin Yi’s eyes darkened slightly, but he didn’t say much in the end.

"Master, who is this disgusting old woman?" the Blood Flood Dragon’s voice echoed in Qin Yi’s ear.

This was the skill of forming a line with sound, only Qin Yi could hear.

Qin Yi’s lips moved slightly, without making a sound.

But the Blood Flood Dragon understood clearly, Qin Yi said shut up.

Xia Yanbing got up, looking at Qin Yi, "Follow me."

Qin Yi followed Xia Yanbing back into the room.

"Close the door!"

Qin Yi was slightly surprised and closed the door with his hand.

Xia Yanbing took out a bank card and handed it to Qin Yi, "There’s a million here, give it to Miss Lan."

Qin Yi looked at her puzzled, "Miss Lan is treating me for free."

"There’s no such thing as a free lunch. She’s treating you for free because she sees you as a guinea pig. Give her this money, so we owe her nothing."

Qin Yi hesitated.

But Xia Yanbing forcibly put the card into Qin Yi’s hand, "Remember to give it to her tomorrow, you’re human, you’re my Xia Yanbing’s husband, not a guinea pig."
