With Fei Yulong and Hu Yitong gone, the martial artists from the Thousand Bamboo Sect and the Hunyuan Gang were no match for Wu Di and Wu Deshang.
It didn't take long before all the martial artists from both factions were subdued, not a single one escaping.
After it was over, Wu Di and the others returned to Qin Yi, so grateful they didn't know what to say.
Qin Yi sensed their emotions and said, "There's nothing else now. We'll be taking our leave!"
He took Han Xin's hand and prepared to walk out.
Wu Di caught up to him and finally spoke, "Young friend Qin, thank you so much for tonight. If you hadn't been here, our Wu family would likely be finished!"
"You are the great benefactor of our entire Wu family. We will remember this kindness forever and never forget it!"
His tone was incredibly solemn and sincere.
Qin Yi waved his hand and said, "Patriarch Wu, you don't need to be so polite. Tonight, I wasn't just helping you; I was also helping myself!"
Originally, when the Wu family first clashed with the Thousand Bamboo Sect and the Hunyuan Gang, he and Han Xin had stood by, with no intention of intervening.
But then Hu Lekuo had wanted his head, and Fei Yulong had even set his sights on Han Xin. He had no choice but to act.
"I..."
Wu Di wanted to say more, but as soon as he uttered the word, Qin Yi interrupted, "Alright, let's dispense with the pleasantries. Such a major event happened tonight, and you still have many matters to attend to. We won't bother you further. Goodbye!"
With that, he didn't linger any longer and left with Han Xin.
Watching Qin Yi's receding back, Wu Deshang came to Wu Di's side and said, "It seems impossible to get him to marry into our Wu family!"
"Mm!"
Wu Di nodded unconsciously in agreement.
Not only did Qin Yi have profound attainments in formations, but he also possessed such formidable strength. How could someone like him be willing to marry into their Wu family?
"Forget it, we won't mention recruiting him to marry into our family anymore!"
Wu Deshang sighed and said, "However, if there's a chance in the future, we should still let Xiao Yao connect with him more!"
"Uncle, what do you mean?"
"If we can't have him marry into our Wu family, we can still have Xiao Yao be with him, can't we? Even if he already has a girlfriend!"
Wu Di: "..."
...
"Qin Yi, tell me honestly, where did you learn such excellent combat skills?"
On the way back to the Brilliant Hotel, Han Xin couldn't help but ask Qin Yi.
Qin Yi pursed his lips and replied, "I learned them in prison!"
Han Xin's expression stiffened, and her walking pace halted.
But she quickly regained her composure, believing Qin Yi was telling the truth.
Because she recalled that more than four years ago, before Qin Yi went to prison, he was injured in a conflict with Tang Jialei.
It was only later that the Tang family used their connections to falsely accuse Qin Yi of injuring Tang Jialei, which led to Qin Yi's imprisonment.
So at that time, Qin Yi couldn't even defeat Tang Jialei!
The fact that he had become so powerful after coming out indicated that Qin Yi had indeed learned his skills in prison!
Thus, Han Xin asked with great curiosity, "Who taught you in prison?"
"My master!" Qin Yi replied without concealment.
He had nothing to hide about the crazy old man, and Han Xin was his girlfriend, one of his closest people. There was no need to keep it from her.
"Your master?"
"Yes, my master, a crazy old man!"
"..."
Han Xin was utterly astonished.
Qin Yi sensed her expression and took the initiative to explain the situation of the crazy old man to her.
After listening, Han Xin understood and murmured, "Your master is truly interesting! Qin Yi, when we return to Haicheng this time, let's go visit your master, shall we?"
After hearing Qin Yi's introduction to the crazy old man, Han Xin felt a surge of gratitude towards him.
If it weren't for the crazy old man, Qin Yi wouldn't have achieved what he had today, and he probably wouldn't have had the chance to be with her after his release.
Furthermore, if not for the crazy old man, Han Sanwan might have already died.
After all, Qin Yi's medical skills, used to treat Han Sanwan, were learned from the crazy old man!
"Of course, I've been out for a few months, and it is indeed time to go back and see him!" Qin Yi agreed.
Qin Yi also felt deep gratitude and respect for the crazy old man.
Without him, he wouldn't be where he was today!
Returning to the Brilliant Hotel, it was already past midnight. Han Xin was exhausted from running around all day.
Qin Yi saw her fatigue and didn't want to bother her, so he dutifully accompanied her to sleep without doing anything else.
The night passed uneventfully.
The next day, Qin Yi and Han Xin woke up. After discussion, they decided to return to Haicheng and stop their sightseeing.
They had been there for three or four days and had visited the most famous attractions on the island. They didn't know where else to go if they stayed longer.
Most importantly, Qin Yi had obtained a formation material from the Wu family, an Eight Trigrams Disk. He was eager to return to Haicheng and enter seclusion.
Han Xin also wanted to return sooner after learning about the crazy old man, so she could visit him in prison with Qin Yi.
They packed their belongings and left the hotel.
Unexpectedly, as they reached the hotel entrance, a familiar figure walked towards them.
Seeing the person, Qin Yi was surprised, "Qi Hou, what are you doing here?"
Han Xin also asked in surprise, "Are you here to see us?"
Without a doubt, this familiar figure was none other than Qi Hou, the young man they had helped just a few days prior.
"Yes!"
Qi Hou nodded and quickly took out a bank card from his pocket, handing it to Qin Yi.
Qin Yi asked in confusion, "What is this..."
"Brother Qin, this card contains the money you gave me last time!" Qi Hou explained. "You gave me a large sum of money last time. After I paid off my debts, there was quite a bit left. I'm returning it to you now!"
Qin Yi understood and didn't take it, smiling and saying, "You don't need to rush to return this money. You can use it to start some business or something. When you make money and have more on hand, then you can repay me!"
A trace of bitterness flashed across Qi Hou's face as he muttered, "If I don't return it today, this money will be snatched away by someone else..."
Although he said this very softly, Qin Yi's hearing was extremely sharp, so he heard it clearly.
Instantly, Qin Yi was taken aback, "Who wants to snatch your money???"
"Ah..."
Qi Hou hadn't expected Qin Yi to hear him and quickly said, "It's nothing, nothing, Brother Qin, please take this card. I'll repay you the remaining money when I have it later!"
He shoved the bank card into Qin Yi's hand.
Seeing this, Han Xin wanted to say something, but before she could open her mouth, a young woman in her early twenties hurried towards them from a distance.
"Stop! Qi Hou, are you out of your damn mind?"
As she ran towards them, she yelled at Qi Hou, pointing at him.
