Chapter 199: Chapter 199: Too Idealistic

"Mr. Qin!"

Duan Xinyuan greeted Qin Yi at the door.

After they were seated, the servant served tea.

Duan Xinyuan’s expression was very peculiar.

"Mr. Qin, you... really killed Diao Daoping?"

Qin Yi looked at him in surprise. He came today for this very matter and didn’t expect Duan Xinyuan already knew.

"You know this person?"

Duan Xinyuan nodded slightly, "We are all Guardians. Although not familiar, we have met a few times. It’s just that we guard Yinfeng City, while the Diao Family guards an entire province."

Qin Yi wasn’t surprised. From Zhou Tianwei’s attitude towards Diao Daoping, he could infer that Diao Daoping’s identity wasn’t simple.

"I didn’t just kill Diao Daoping; I also slaughtered his two disciples."

The muscles at the corners of Duan Xinyuan’s mouth and eyes twitched. Looking at Qin Yi’s calm demeanor, he seemed oblivious to the serious trouble he had caused.

"Little husband, who is Diao Daoping? Why did you kill him?"

Qin Yi said indifferently, "He was asking for it himself."

"Mr. Qin, the Diao Family is not to be messed with. The Diao Family has always been overbearing; it’s no secret among the Guardians. Since you killed Diao Daoping, the Diao Family won’t just let it go."

Duan Yiyi raised her little head, "So what if they won’t let it go? If they dare to trouble my little husband, I’ll chop them to pieces."

Qin Yi couldn’t help but smile. He really liked Duan Yiyi’s unwavering support.

Duan Xinyuan glared, "What do you know? The Diao Family controls the province’s Guardians and has the backing of the country. They’re not easy to provoke."

"Moreover, Foundation Establishment Stage experts are treasures for every family. Losing one wouldn’t just hurt them superficially; the always domineering Diao Family wouldn’t swallow this easily."

Duan Yiyi said dismissively, "So what if they can’t swallow it? My little husband said they brought it upon themselves, so they deserve it. Besides, even if they can’t accept it, they must swallow it, as they can’t beat my little husband anyway."

Duan Xinyuan said with a headache, "What do you know? It’s not as simple as you think."

"Actually, it is as simple as Yiyi said," Qin Yi said calmly.

"If the Diao Family wants to trouble me, they can come. But please send a message for me: if they come to apologize, I accept! If they come otherwise, there’s no coming back."

"I have no intention of being an enemy to the country. If the Diao Family relies on national support to take my life, I won’t just sit idly."

Duan Xinyuan looked at Qin Yi in shock, Qin Yi’s domineering nature surpassed his expectations.

Duan Yiyi cheered and clapped, "Little husband is impressive!"

Duan Xinyuan came back to his senses and said with a wry smile, "I roughly understand the situation. Although not very detailed, I know it’s not your fault. The country won’t trouble you. However, the Diao Family’s power shouldn’t be underestimated."

Qin Yi remained calm, with no ripple of emotion, and said faintly, "As I said, if they come to apologize I accept; if they come looking for trouble, they should consider if their necks are hard enough."

"I came today for this matter. You have good sources. If the Diao Family sneaks into Yinfeng City, remember to notify me."

Duan Xinyuan was troubled; given the Diao Family’s nature, they certainly wouldn’t come to apologize. Coupled with Qin Yi’s decisive character, it would lead to a life-or-death outcome.

Qin Yi looked at Duan Xinyuan and said, "What? Is it difficult for you? You’re all Guardians. I understand if you wish to stay out of it. In that case, just pretend I never came."

Duan Yiyi quickly hugged Qin Yi’s arm, "Little husband, we’ll help. Who said we’re not going to help you? If the Diao Family dares to trouble you, I’ll be the first to cut them down."

Qin Yi couldn’t help but laugh. This lively, violent girl appealed to him deeply.

Duan Xinyuan sighed bitterly, "Mr. Qin, it’s not that I don’t want to help you. It’s better to resolve enmity than to maintain it. I’m wondering if there’s a way to make peace between you and the Diao Family."

Qin Yi sneered, "Make peace? Do you think with the Diao Family’s character, how likely is that?"

Duan Xinyuan sighed bitterly, "If you trust me, let me try. Although the Diao Family is arrogant, they ultimately have to be reasonable, right?"

Qin Yi wanted to make a snide comment at Duan Xinyuan but held back in the end.

Duan Xinyuan is too idealistic. The Diao Family has a higher status, more power than the Duan Family. Why would they listen to you? Moreover, judging by Diao Daoping, it’s clear what kind of people the Diao Family are—making peace is out of the question.

Besides, he had killed three people from the Diao Family: one Foundation Establishment expert and two outstanding disciples. It’s not just the Diao Family; any family wouldn’t easily let it go.

Qin Yi had a strong premonition there would never be a chance for reconciliation with the Diao Family. To settle this grudge, there had to be bloodshed—killing until the opponent was too scared to bare their fangs.

Of course, he was too lazy to explain all this to such an idealist as Duan Xinyuan.

Qin Yi was a realist, only caring about results, never dreaming.

"Alright then, give it a try if you must."

Duan Xinyuan nodded, "Rest assured, I will do my best to facilitate this."

Qin Yi smiled, saying nothing in response!

Duan Yiyi hugged Qin Yi’s arm and whispered, "Little husband, in this world, strength rules. I think the Diao Family won’t easily make peace; you’d better be careful. If the Diao Family comes to Yinfeng City, I’ll definitely inform you."

Qin Yi patted her head, "Good girl..."

Duan Yiyi unhappily slapped Qin Yi’s hand away, "I’m not a little kid anymore. Next time, say I’m pretty, really pretty!"

Qin Yi: "..."

"Little husband, can you teach me a bit?"

Qin Yi laughed, "At your age, your cultivation is already amazing. Do you still need my guidance?"

"You’re not much older than me, yet you’re so powerful... I want to be as powerful as you!"

Qin Yi pondered for a moment, "Cultivation relies on talent, yearning, luck, hard practice, and so on. I can’t help you with that. But your saber technique is too crude. Next time, I’ll teach you another saber technique."

Duan Xinyuan’s mouth twitched. Their Duan Family’s Overlord Blade Slash had a long lineage and formidable power; this was the first time he’d heard someone say their saber technique was crude.

However, recalling Qin Yi’s Divine Ghost Techniques, he couldn’t argue. Compared to Qin Yi’s methods, the Overlord Blade Slash was indeed lacking.

"Little husband, really?" Duan Yiyi’s little face was full of excitement.

Qin Yi nodded slightly; his mind was filled with countless techniques. Giving Duan Yiyi one was no big deal at all.

"Mwah... Thank you, little husband. I just love you to death."

Duan Yiyi excitedly kissed Qin Yi on the face.

Qin Yi pushed her head away with disdain, "If you kiss me again, the saber technique lesson is off."

Duan Yiyi’s gemstone-like eyes spun craftily; she quickly hugged him and kissed him twice before he noticed.

"I kissed you twice, not once, so you can’t back out!"

Qin Yi: "..."
