Chapter 342: Chapter 342: Devouring Without Spitting Out the Bones

"Can we go find Qin Yi now? We spent so much money to see him. Once we meet him, we’ll make sure he doesn’t even recognize his mom."

A young man clutched a small card in his hand and said fiercely.

Xue Haoping glanced at the small card in his hand, and his eyes suddenly narrowed. The number ’1’ at the bottom of the card stabbed at his eyes.

"What’s your number?"

The few of them looked and all turned pale. They were numbers one to four.

"We were already in the top four. What’s the difference between buying a regular card and a VIP card?"

The four of them pondered, damn... there’s no difference at all.

The four of them were so angry they were on the verge of madness.

"Who came up with this money-grabbing stupid idea?"

"Could it be the Duan Family? After all, this is their office."

"I heard that Xue Aoyu of the Duan Family is a business powerhouse. This money-grabbing method must have been her idea. This woman is really too insidious."

"We’re all Guardians here. Is grabbing money like this taking us for fools? No way, I’m going to the Duan Family to get this straightened out."

Xue Haoping said, "Anyway, the money’s already spent. We can talk about this later. Let’s go find Qin Yi first. I want to see if this guy has three heads or six arms to dare claim he is the number one of the younger generation."

"Brother Xue is right. We’ll beat up Qin Yi first, then go to the Duan Family to demand an explanation."

The four of them decided to go find Qin Yi.

But the next second, they were stumped. Where does Qin Yi live?

"Do you four need us to take you to find Mr. Qin?"

A scruffy-looking young man with a cigarette in his mouth walked over, with shifty eyes, not looking like a good person at all.

Xue Haoping squinted slightly, "How much?"

They realized that anything related to Qin Yi involved paying money.

The young man smiled broadly, "It’s the same price throughout the city, two thousand! Fair and honest for all, you can ask around if you don’t believe it."

Two thousand?

"How much does a taxi fare cost?" one of the young men said angrily.

The young man, cigarette in mouth, smilingly said, "If you take a taxi now and say you’re looking for Mr. Qin, it’s two thousand at the start. I told you, it’s the same price across the city, transparent pricing, fair and honest for all."

Xue Haoping and the others’ faces turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

"Let’s go, what’s the big deal? We can get this money back from the Duan Family."

"That’s right, we’ll beat up Qin Yi, then go to the Duan Family and make them cough up the money they’ve scammed from us."

The four of them paid and got into a rundown van, heading toward Qin Yi’s home.

Over an hour later, the van stopped at the entrance to Qin Yi’s villa.

When they got out, they saw a small canopy set up at the villa’s entrance.

Under the canopy was a table with two lounge chairs.

At the table sat two people, one looking like a girl from an anime, the other a young cute girl.

The two girls had straws in their mouths, one end in the drinks on the table. Judging by the beads of water on the cups, the drinks were cold, quite refreshing in the hot weather.

Xue Haoping approached, and politely asked, "Excuse me, is this Qin Yi’s home?"

Duan Yiyi opened her eyes and nodded slightly.

"Are you here to see my little husband?"

Little husband?

Xue Haoping and his group were stunned.

"Are you Qin Yi’s wife?"

Qin Yi is such a beast, marrying such a young girl?

Duan Yiyi laughed, "Sort of, but not really. My little husband has a wife; I’m just the standby."

"..."...

Standby?

A wife has a standby?

"Well, is Qin Yi home?"

Duan Yiyi shook her head, "No."

The four of them were dumbfounded. After spending millions, finally reaching Qin Yi’s doorstep, and he’s not there.

"My little husband went to watch the arena matches. Aren’t you all here to challenge him? You can’t fight here, right? So my little husband prepared a suitable place for combat."

Xue Haoping asked in surprise, "Qin Yi knew we were coming to challenge him?"

Duan Yiyi proudly said, "My little husband knows everything from astronomy to geography. What’s strange about knowing you were coming? It’s a piece of cake for him."

Xue Haoping’s mouth twitched a little. Is this girl a brainless fan of Qin Yi?

"Excuse me, where is the challenge arena?"

"Oh, it’s far! My little husband doesn’t want to disturb the public, so he chose a very remote place. Without someone to guide you, you wouldn’t find it."

Xue Haoping and his group felt a wave of frustration, it looks like they would have to pay more to take that rundown van again.

"Never mind, just tell us the place, we can go on our own!"

Beside them, Liu Yiren, who had been pretending to nap with closed eyes, suddenly opened her eyes, and pulled out a sheet of A4 paper from behind her, shaking it as she said, "Here is a map to the challenge arena, want a copy?"

Xue Haoping’s eyes lit up, but he quickly became wary. So many times being tricked had taught them that everything in Yinfeng City costs money, with prices that are very high and harsh.

"Does it cost money?"

Liu Yiren rolled her beautiful big eyes, "Of course! You all look young and loaded, the crème de la crème, how could you ask such an immature question? Want it for free? This is a painstakingly hand-drawn map by us, you could treat it as a family heirloom."

Xue Haoping gritted his teeth, asking, "How much for the map?"

"Not expensive, five thousand!"

Xue Haoping’s face went completely dark, you dare to ask, normally a map is at most five or ten bucks, you’re selling it for five thousand and calling it not expensive.

Liu Yiren rolled her eyes and covered her face with her white fisherman’s hat, sulkingly muttering, "Take it or leave it, only one copy! Without our map, you couldn’t find the challenge arena even if you turned Yinfeng City upside down."

"We’ll take it, otherwise we’ll have to stay in Yinfeng City another day, compared to a million, five thousand seems worth it."

Xue Haoping sighed, "We’ll take the map."

Liu Yiren sat up sharply, pulling out two QR codes, "Alipay or WeChat?"

Xue Haoping and his group were completely confused.

"WeChat then!"

Liu Yiren put down the Alipay QR code and took out a WeChat QR code.

Xue Haoping was a bit puzzled, "Why two? Which one should we scan?"

Liu Yiren said disdainfully, "Of course, both, five thousand each."

"Didn’t you say earlier that the map was five thousand?"

"I meant five thousand per person, the map was drawn by me and Yiyi, so it’s five thousand each."

Xue Haoping felt completely helpless, his face dark, "I say young lady, aren’t you being a bit greedy here?"

"What are you talking about? It’s clearly priced, take it or leave it." Liu Yiren rolled her eyes, muttering, "What’s up with pretending to be rich if you don’t have money."

Xue Haoping almost spat blood, "Fine, five thousand per person, I’ll pay you. I see it now, Yinfeng City is a wolf’s den, consuming people without leaving bones."

After paying, Xue Haoping and the others turned away with darkened faces.

"Hmph, no manners at all, poor and petty, how strong can their cultivation be? I bet they’ll be beaten black and blue by Qin Yi." Liu Yiren’s disdainful voice sounded behind them.

Xue Haoping and his group were almost exploding with anger, getting ripped off and still being disdained. But since the opponent was a little girl, they just had to swallow it.
