Chapter 276: Chapter 276: Mindless Worship

The girl’s face showed a hint of defiance and she muttered softly, "Is your husband as powerful as my third grandpa?"

Duan Yiyi raised her hand and knocked on the girl’s head.

"What are you saying? My husband is invincible, he single-handedly took down the Diao Family. Does your Liu Family think they’re all that?"

The girl rubbed her sore forehead, angry but not daring to speak up.

Duan Xinyuan gave the old man an awkward smile, after all, the girl was a guest.

The old man, however, had a peculiar expression, almost gloating. This little princess was always so unruly, now she finally met someone who could keep her in check.

At that moment, Qin Yi and Qin Wan’er walked in from outside.

Duan Yiyi’s eyes lit up, and she jumped up excitedly.

The girl also jumped up, but out of shock rather than excitement.

"Hubby..." Duan Yiyi happily ran over, leaping into Qin Yi’s arms and giving him a big hug.

"Wan’er, you came too?" Duan Yiyi released Qin Yi and also hugged Qin Wan’er.

Duan Xinyuan smiled and said, "Old Liu, this is..."

But the girl shouted first, pointing at Qin Yi, "Third Grandpa, it’s him, he’s the one who took the White Jade Grass."

Qin Yi’s expression was indifferent; he had recognized the girl as soon as he came in.

In fact, when at the herbal market, Qin Yi had suspected that the girl was related to the Duan Family. After all, Qi Refiners weren’t as common as cabbages everywhere, and the girl’s accent wasn’t from Yinfeng City.

Qin Yi remembered that Duan Xinyuan had told him that people would be sent from above to handle the Heavenly Pit situation, and he had guessed the girl might be one of those dispatched.

The girl glared resentfully at Qin Yi.

Liu Feng and Liu Yun were also quite shocked. They hadn’t expected that the person they encountered at the herbal market would be Qin Yi?

Qin Yi’s reputation was no small thing now; he was the fierce individual who wiped out the Diao Family on his own.

The two exchanged glances and saw the fear in each other’s eyes. Fortunately, Qin Yi hadn’t held anything against them at that time, or whether they could have returned alive was uncertain.

The old man looked at Qin Yi, his gaze sharp.

"Third Grandpa, he took my White Jade Grass, hurry..."

Before the girl could finish her sentence, Duan Yiyi strode over and smacked her on the back of the head, "What are you saying? That’s my husband. You should be grateful he showed mercy, otherwise would you still be bouncing around here?"

The girl’s face was full of grievance, "But he took my White Jade Grass."

"What do you mean your White Jade Grass, anything my husband sets his eyes on is his, understand?" Duan Yiyi raised her hand, with an expression that said if you dare argue, I’ll smack you.

Duan Yiyi’s attitude towards Qin Yi could be described as blind worship in today’s terms.

The girl looked at Duan Yiyi, stifled, angry yet unable to speak.

Qin Yi pursed his lips tightly; it was obvious that this girl was afraid of Duan Yiyi, truly a case of one thing subduing another.

"Hubby, Wan’er, come sit over here!"

After scolding the girl, Duan Yiyi came over to pull Qin Yi and Qin Wan’er to sit down.

"Hubby, don’t mind her, she’s just a spoiled brat who hasn’t been taught by society. I’ll slowly teach her the rules."

Qin Yi’s lips curled slightly, you’re going to teach her? The kind of person you’d teach might just turn into a little witch, right?

Duan Xinyuan chuckled, "Qin Yi, let me introduce you, this is Liu Chengqing, Old Liu."

Qin Yi looked at Liu Chengqing and nodded slightly.

"Thank you!" Liu Chengqing’s sharp gaze had long since subsided, suddenly expressing gratitude to Qin Yi.

Everyone was slightly taken aback, why was Liu Chengqing suddenly thanking Qin Yi?

Qin Yi understood, smiling faintly, "It’s nothing, just a kid."

In reality, Liu Chengqing was thanking Qin Yi for showing mercy to the girl, Liu Feng, and Liu Yun.

Qin Yi himself wasn’t aware that ever since he wiped out the Diao Family, his name had spread through the Guardian Family.

"Hubby, this kid is called Liu Yiren, and those two are called Liu Feng and Liu Yun."

Liu Feng and Liu Yun nodded humbly and politely towards Qin Yi.

But Liu Yiren scrunched up her face, full of resentment.

"Kid, my hubby didn’t even hold a grudge against you, yet you still have a sour face, believe it or not, I’ll beat you up?"

Liu Yiren shrunk back her neck but refused to admit defeat, "Even if you beat me, I still don’t like him."

"My husband is so handsome, invincible in the world, what right do you have not to like him?"

"He took my White Jade Grass, I just don’t like him."

Duan Yiyi sneered disdainfully, "Hah, there are plenty of people who don’t like my husband, who do you think you are? You’re not even in the thousands."

Qin Yi’s mouth twitched a few times, no matter how he listened those words didn’t sound like a compliment; was he really that despised?

Duan Yiyi huffed, unwilling to pay attention to Liu Yiren any further. She turned towards Qin Wan’er, "Let me introduce everyone, this is my future sister-in-law, and also my good sister, Qin Wan’er."

Qin Wan’er quietly gave Duan Yiyi a pat, what sister-in-law? Then she smiled shyly at everyone.

Liu Chengqing looked at Qin Yi, stood up, and bowed, "Qin Yi, thank you! On behalf of the millions of citizens in Yinfeng City, thank you."

Qin Yi replied calmly, "No need, I’m also a person of Yinfeng City."

"No matter how you look at it, we have you to thank this time, or else if those monsters got out, it wouldn’t have been a joke, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Qin Yi said, "Do you have a way to deal with the Heavenly Pit?"

Liu Chengqing replied, "We don’t have a better way for now, we can only fill it, find a way to fill the pit."

"Do you have a specific plan?"

"Yes, the Heavenly Pit in Yinfeng City is the third case in the country. The pit in Huahai City has already been filled."

Qin Yi nodded slightly, "Back then, the Blood Ghost Vine, Blood Monkey, and Earth Demon that appeared in Huahai City were all taken for research, did you discover anything?"

Liu Chengqing’s expression changed slightly, his gaze becoming heavy, "I won’t hide it from you, these creatures’ genomes are very strange, they’re not even Earthling creatures."

"In the existing gene database files, there is no species genome that can match them, it’s a completely new form of life."

"After dissecting those creatures, it was found that their body structures are naturally designed for killing."

"There’s already suspicion that these creatures seem to come from another dimension."

Qin Yi’s eyes flickered, and he suddenly asked, "Have you heard of the Primordial?"

Liu Chengqing and Duan Xinyuan exchanged a look and shook their heads simultaneously.

"What’s the Primordial?"

Qin Yi felt somewhat disappointed; if he knew what the Primordial was and where it was, he wouldn’t need to ask them.

"Just a random question, it’s nothing!"

The Blood Flood Dragon had said that all these monsters came from the Primordial, which meant the Primordial should be another dimension.

Liu Chengqing smiled, "In truth, I also have another task for this visit, which is to thank you properly! Qin Yi, what do you want?"

Qin Yi’s eyes lit up; he initially thought it was just verbal thanks, but it seemed there were rewards as well.

He initially wanted to say money, but he changed his words at the last moment, "If you really want to thank me, help me find a few herbs."
