Chapter 415: Chapter 415: Dig 3 Feet Deep

Qin Yi’s face was grim. He searched every room but found no traces of Liu Yiren’s presence.

"Could she have climbed over the back wall?"

Tan Yi shook his head, "No. My men have surrounded the yard. Even a bird couldn’t escape unnoticed."

Qin Yi’s brows furrowed. Tan Yi’s men saw Liu Yiren being brought into this yard, yet she was nowhere to be found. Where could these people have hidden her?

Tan Yi suddenly looked toward the garden and the vegetable plot, his expression changing slightly, "Could they have...?"

Though Tan Yi didn’t finish, Qin Yi’s expression changed dramatically. He understood what Tan Yi meant — was he suggesting that the Blood Cloud Tower people might have killed Liu Yiren and buried her?

"No way!" Qin Yi swallowed nervously.

"Why not?" Tan Yi asked.

Qin Yi replied solemnly, "They captured Yiren to deal with me. If I haven’t shown up, they definitely wouldn’t kill her."

"That makes sense. But what if they accidentally killed her?"

Qin Yi’s face turned pale. He quickly approached the vegetable plot, his eyes sharp. If Liu Yiren were buried, there would certainly be traces of digging; the color of the soil would be different.

This vegetable plot was not large and was easily visible. After careful inspection, Qin Yi breathed a sigh of relief. There were no signs of disturbance in the soil.

"You all, check the garden."

After searching the garden, the Tan family members reported, "Young Master, there’s no sign of digging in the garden either."

"That’s good. It seems the little beauty is still alive. It would be a shame if she were dead."

"But where could those bastards from Blood Cloud Tower have hidden her?"

Qin Yi’s gaze was icy, "They captured Yiren to deal with me. With just a few people, they wouldn’t dare confront me directly. They must have accomplices."

"They don’t!" Tan Yi said confidently, "From the moment these five entered Baihua City, my men were watching them. There are only these five people. Of course, Baihua City has hidden remnants of Blood Cloud Tower, but they should all be intelligence personnel with low combat ability. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be just these five here."

Qin Yi said seriously, "Then they have support. They chose this place to wait for reinforcement."

"That’s possible!" Tan Yi nodded.

Qin Yi’s eyes were cold. The Blood Cloud Tower people acted against him, yet Xie Jiang didn’t notify him in advance. Was he unaware of this action, or did he have other motives?

Tan Yi instructed, "Keep searching, even if you have to dig three feet deep. I refuse to believe a living person could vanish in such a small place."

Qin Yi said sternly, "Stop searching. Hide everyone and wait for the Blood Cloud Tower’s support to arrive."

Tan Yi looked at Qin Yi speechlessly, pausing before finally unable to resist commenting, "Are you stupid? We can’t find her. How would the reinforcements know where these guys hid her? Even capturing them is useless."

Qin Yi paused, rubbing his brow. He was really too worried to think clearly, not even considering such an obvious fact.

Tan Yi instructed, "Keep searching and assign more people. I just can’t believe it."

Qin Yi forced himself to calm down, considering every possibility. The yard was just so large. Where could they have hidden her?

Tan Yi jumped down from the car roof, "I have to ask you something. Was it you who made that place of mine useless?"

Qin Yi, worried about Liu Yiren’s safety, nodded without thinking.

Tan Yi’s handsome face darkened, "I knew it! Of course, it was you, you sneaky bastard."

Qin Yi remained silent, racking his brain about where Liu Yiren could be hidden, completely ignoring Tan Yi.

Tan Yi gritted his teeth, shouting, "Assign more people. We must find the little beauty."

After shouting, he looked at Qin Yi, "Once we find her, I doubt you have the guts not to cure me."

Qin Yi looked up at him, eyes slightly narrowed.

Tan Yi tensed up, "What are you thinking?"

"Is this your car?"

Tan Yi glanced back, casually saying, "No, I wouldn’t drive such a broken car. This belongs to those dead bastards..."

Tan Yi stopped mid-sentence, stunned, then let out a strange cry, hurrying towards the car.

Swish!

Qin Yi swept past him like a gust of wind, circling the car in a flash.

No one was in the car.

Qin Yi reached the car’s rear, opened the trunk, and found Liu Yiren unconscious inside.

Qin Yi quickly pulled her out, checked her, and sighed heavily with relief. She was only drugged into unconsciousness, with no other injuries.

Tan Yi was full of remorse, wanting to slap himself but refrained, fearing he’d harm his handsome face, which would affect his future romantic pursuits.

He initially planned to find Liu Yiren first and then threaten Qin Yi to treat him, but now that was all for nothing.

He felt like such an idiot, that after all the effort spent almost demolishing the yard, those bastards just left Liu Yiren in the trunk. And to think he had been sitting on the car roof for so long without realizing.

Tan Yi felt like crying but had no tears. Now the little beauty was with Qin Yi; he couldn’t possibly snatch her back, for he’d get beaten to death.

Qin Yi drove out the drug from Liu Yiren’s body through energy movement. Without this, the Ksitigarbha Flower’s effect could leave her unconscious for several days.

"Qin Yi?" Liu Yiren opened her eyes, full of confusion, "Why are you in my room?"

Qin Yi, "..."

"Miss, take a good look at where we are."

Liu Yiren glanced around, her eyes suddenly widening. She sat up abruptly, "Where is this? Why am I here? And why is that scum here too?"

Qin Yi said, "Miss, have you forgotten everything? You were drugged."

"Me?" Liu Yiren was stunned and suddenly looked at Tan Yi with a pretty, anger-infused face, "Was it you?"

Tan Yi felt like crying but held back his tears.

"It wasn’t him. You should thank him; he saved you," Qin Yi said.

Liu Yiren looked disbelieving, "He saved me?"

"If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t even know by now that you were drugged and kidnapped."

He would arrange a Death Replacement Talisman on Liu Yiren once they were back; he always forgot about this.

Liu Yiren suspiciously asked, "If it wasn’t him who kidnapped me, then who was it?"

Qin Yi replied, "Blood Cloud Tower, targeting me. You got caught up in it. But Tan Yi indeed saved you."

Qin Yi spoke while pointing at the distant bodies.

Liu Yiren was taken aback and looked at Tan Yi, "You killed them?"

Tan Yi smiled and nodded. He had always been tolerant with women, despite being misunderstood.

"I seem to remember a bit now," Liu Yiren patted her forehead, turning to Qin Yi, "After leaving your room and returning to mine, not long after, room service came saying they wanted to replace the flowers in the room. The next part is blank."

Qin Yi’s eyes narrowed slightly. That was it. The room service person must have been from Blood Cloud Tower. The flowers they replaced were the Ksitigarbha Flowers. After drugging Liu Yiren, they took the flowers too, which was why he didn’t see them in her room.
