On the other side, the combat style of the Purple-Light clone was not so ferocious but excelled in adaptability, already slaying the severely wounded opponent.

Now, both clones had only one opponent left.

Suddenly, Qin Yi looked up to see the star map flickering in the air, as three large stars simultaneously fell, transforming mid-air into Fire Meteors.

Qin Yi was speechless; this Red-Light clone's combat was too violent, starting off with such a grand move.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The ground shattered, swept by fiery storm and light.

After a long while, the storm dissipated, and there wasn't a trace of the Red-Light clone's opponent left, reduced to ashes.

On the other side, the Purple-Light clone also finished off the last opponent, lingering in front of the Red-Light clone for a few seconds.

The two approached Qin Yi and slightly bowed.

Qin Yi nodded slightly, "You two go into the ruins and bring Old Ragged out."

The two nodded and dashed towards the collapsed ruins, shortly bringing out the half-dead Old Ragged.

Previously, Qin Yi set up an array to protect Old Ragged, otherwise, with the collapse of the hall, he'd have been a pile of mud.

"You two can come back now."

Red and purple radiance simultaneously spread out, and when they dissipated, the two clones disappeared, merging back into Qin Yi as Nascent Souls.

Qin Yi looked down at the half-dead Old Ragged, hesitated slightly, then raised his hand to send out a Purple Light to heal him.

...

"Cough… cough…"

A slight cough was heard.

Old Ragged opened his eyes, still very weak, eyes dull, before clarity returned after a long while.

Seeing Qin Yi, Old Ragged was slightly stunned, "Is it you?"

"It's me. I know you really wanted to see me, but I didn't want to see you at all."

Old Ragged remained silent.

After a long while, he slowly said, "Did you save me?"

"That's obvious, isn't it?"

Old Ragged fell silent again, then slowly said, "Thank you!"

"No need to thank me, saving you was incidental, the main point was to kill Yin Xiyuan and his gang." Qin Yi paused and said, "Goodbye."

"Qin Yi?"

Qin Yi looked down at him.

"You're right," Old Ragged said softly.

Qin Yi smiled, "Take care of yourself."

With that, he left swiftly. Old Ragged was injured because of him, now saving him made them even.

If Old Ragged remained stubborn and stuck in his ways, Qin Yi wouldn't mind sending him away with Yin Xiyuan and the others. But now it seemed the old fellow finally realized his mistake.

Qin Yi arrived at a cave entrance, raised his hand to dismiss the array at the entrance, walked in, and carried Little Leaf out, disappearing into the mountains.

Half an hour later, Qin Yi appeared in North City.

It was already evening, and Qin Yi found an inn to settle down.

Little Leaf awoke, thinking she had simply fallen asleep by accident.

Qin Yi prepared some fruit for her; the little girl was delighted with just a bite to eat.

Qin Yi envied her, the world of children is always the simplest and the easiest to satisfy.

He rested in the room for the night.

The previous night's battle brought him new insights.

...

The next morning, at dawn.

Qin Yi awoke from cultivation, his cultivation had increased slightly.

After breakfast, he left the inn with Little Leaf.

He had three tasks to accomplish. First, find Yun Mengyao and others. Second, challenge Sin Tower, as the Tower Masters of layers one to three had died by his hand, their assets now belonging to him. Thus, he had to visit Sin Money House. Third, help Little Leaf find her sister.

Sin Money House had branches everywhere.

Qin Yi took Little Leaf to a branch of Sin Money House.

Sure enough, wealth was good, there weren't many intact buildings in Sin City, but even a branch of Sin Money House was impressive.

As Qin Yi entered, he couldn't help but feel a bit dazed, it resembled a bank on Earth.

"Sir, would you like to deposit or withdraw money?"

A staff walked over, politely asked, attitude neither arrogant nor submissive.

Sin Money House held considerable influence, but their service was commendable, at least the staff here wasn't overbearing nor servile, making Qin Yi feel comfortable.

Qin Yi said, "I want to see the person in charge here, please convey my intention."

The staff was momentarily taken aback, looking at Qin Yi's face, it seemed familiar. He was just a staff and didn't immediately recognize Qin Yi, so he asked, "May I know what business you have with the person in charge? If it's deposit or withdrawal, I can assist you."

"What I need to do is beyond your capability. My name is Qin Yi, tell your manager, I'm sure he'll want to see me."

The staff's eyes widened with shock, now recognizing why the face seemed familiar. It was Qin Yi, the infamous man who destroyed Sin Tower.

"Please wait."

The staff invited Qin Yi to sit and hurried to the back.

Before long, as Qin Yi was playing with Little Leaf, a well-dressed middle-aged man hurried over.

"Greetings Young Master Qin, I am Wang Hai, the person in charge here. Apologies for the wait."

Qin Yi waved his hand, "No worries, my visit was unannounced, cannot blame you."

"Thank you for your understanding, Young Master Qin." Wang Hai said gratefully, then bowed, "Young Master Qin, please come inside, allow me the opportunity to properly host you."

Qin Yi said, "No need. I don't have much time, let's get straight to the point. You're aware of the Sin Tower challenge, aren't you?"

Wang Hai nodded quickly, everyone knew about this, it had spread across the northern and southern states.

"It's said that if you win the challenge, the assets of the defeated Tower Masters become the victor's. I slew the tower masters of layers one to three, and seven, are those assets mine now?"

Wang Hai nodded, "Indeed, that's correct. However, we must first investigate and verify, and only then will these assets be transferred to your name."

Qin Yi looked at him interestingly.

Wang Hai shivered, "Young Master Qin, I'm not doubting your honesty, even with ten lifetimes of courage, I wouldn't dare. But it's the longstanding protocol of our money house, I ask for your understanding."

Qin Yi nodded slightly, "How long will it take?"

"This might take some time. How about seven days?"

Qin Yi said indifferently, "I'll give you three days. Three days later, same time, prepare the assets of those four names I mentioned for me to collect. It's all right if there are a few hundred or thousand gold coins missing, don't need to calculate so precisely."

The missing gold coins were a subtle bribe to Wang Hai, and Qin Yi believed Wang Hai understood.

Wang Hai hesitated briefly, then nodded, "Alright, I'll do my best to accomplish it."

"Not your best, but must."

Wang Hai hesitated then quickly nodded.

Qin Yi stood up holding Little Leaf, "Goodbye!"

As Qin Yi reached the door, he suddenly paused and turned to look at Wang Hai.

Wang Hai quickly trotted over, "Does Young Master Qin have any other instructions?"
