Qin Yi looked at Jing Wuyan in surprise, "Why? Do you not want to save Xiaoxi?"

"Of course I do, but I don't want Brother Qin to take the risk. The Sin Tower is too perilous."

Qin Yi smiled faintly, "Do I look like a fool to you?"

"Yes," Yun Mengyao said without missing a beat.

Qin Yi: "..."

Jing Wuyan shook his head, "Brother Qin, you're exceptionally wise. If you were a fool, there wouldn't be many smart people in the world." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"There you have it, since I'm not a fool, and I insist on challenging the Sin Tower, what does that imply?"

Jing Wuyan shook his head, "Why?"

"Idiot, it's because he's confident," Yun Mengyao said in exasperation.

Jing Wuyan was startled, "Brother Qin, are you really confident?"

Qin Yi shook his head speechlessly.

Yun Mengyao laughed, "This guy is more afraid of dying than anyone else. He cherishes his life above all. If he wasn't a hundred percent sure, he wouldn't risk it."

Jing Wuyan was still very worried because the Sin Tower is no ordinary place.

Xiao Jian suddenly stood up and said, "Kid, come with me."

Qin Yi rolled his eyes and couldn't be bothered with him.

Xiao Jian took a few steps, noticing Qin Yi wasn't following, and frowned, "Kid, come with me."

"I know you want to probe my abilities, but I advise you to forget it. Considering your age, if I accidentally break your bones, it'd be embarrassing."

Xiao Jian snorted coldly, "Arrogant. If you can beat me, I'll lose ten thousand gold coins to you."

"Really?"

Qin Yi jumped up, eyes sparkling, scaring Jing Wuyan and the others.

Xiao Jian was baffled; is there someone who loves money this much?

"An old man keeps his word."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's get started."

"Let's fight outside. This is the only place we can stay, if it's destroyed, we'll have to sleep outside."

Qin Yi thought about it and agreed; he remembered a clearing not far outside. With a shout, he leapt over the wall, "Uncle Jian, catch up quickly, time's wasting, and I need to make money."

"I fear you lack the ability to earn," Xiao Jian flickered into motion following him.

Jing Wuyan and the others exchanged glances.

"Young master, let's go have a look too."

Jing Wuyan nodded, about to go out, but Yun Mengyao stopped him.

"What's wrong?" Jing Wuyan looked at her in confusion.

Yun Mengyao smiled charmingly, "Everyone, why don't we make a bet?"

Jing Wuyan curiously asked, "Bet on what?"

"Bet on whether Uncle Xiao wins or Qin Yi wins?"

Jing Wuyan smiled wryly, "Fairy Yun, stop messing around."

"Who's messing around? Let's make a bet. If Uncle Xiao wins, you all owe me ten thousand gold coins each. If Qin Yi wins, I'll give each of you ten thousand gold coins. How's that? It's a good deal, right?"

Some people were tempted, never having seen a bet like this. With about ten people here, if Yun Mengyao lost, she'd have to pay over a hundred thousand gold coins. If they lost, they just had to pool together ten thousand coins.

Jing Wuyan didn't want to bet; he wanted to see the fight between Qin Yi and Xiao Jian. Watching experts fight could teach a lot.

But Yun Mengyao wouldn't let them leave.

"Alright, I'll bet," Jing Wuyan said helplessly.

"What about you guys?" Yun Mengyao looked at the others.

Everyone nodded in agreement; only a fool wouldn't take such a favorable bet.

"Alright then, it's a deal, and our word is our bond. Let's go see who wins."

Jing Wuyan couldn't contain himself any longer and was the first to rush out, followed closely by the others.

Yun Mengyao beamed with joy, exclaiming she was making a fortune and also dashed out.

It must be said that after spending so much time with Qin Yi, Yun Mengyao had also become quite cunning. As they say, the company you keep rubs off on you. Learning good takes effort, but picking up bad habits is instant.

By the time everyone arrived at the clearing outside, Qin Yi and Xiao Jian were already fighting.

"Boom!"

The two figures collided in mid-air, no fancy moves, just a raw clash, unleashing a terrifying tempest.

Qin Yi stomped his foot, causing the ground to shatter, but stood firm.

Xiao Jian retreated over ten steps, leaving a deep trail of footprints before managing to steady himself, looking at Qin Yi in shock.

Qin Yi grinned, "Uncle Jian, just admit defeat. It's only ten thousand gold coins, no need to risk your life."

Xiao Jian's old face darkened, "Barely better and you dare act so wildly; I haven't even tried hard yet."

"Ha, kind words can't persuade a dead man. I've never seen anyone who loves taking a beating this much."

With that, Purple Light enveloped Qin Yi as he shot towards Xiao Jian like lightning, throwing a punch, the terrifying force roared like an Evil Dragon, twisting the space it passed through.

Xiao Jian was surrounded by a white glow, his clothes billowing and hair whipping around. Raising his hand, he unleashed a palm strike, a massive force surging and sweeping out like a tidal wave.

"Boom!"

Two equally dreadful forces collided, exploding loudly, and instantly the ground around them for a hundred meters was blasted apart, dirt flying a hundred meters high.

Jing Wuyan and the others were shaken, their Qi and blood turbulent, forced to retreat repeatedly.

"Who would've thought, Young Master Qin's cultivation is terrifying."

"I bet Young Master Qin will lose. His cultivation isn't weak, but Uncle Xiao isn't bad either. Besides, Young Master Qin is still too young, his combat experience can't match Uncle Xiao's, he'll surely lose in the end."

"I think you just don't want to lose money."

Mo Xiao told the others, "Don't underestimate Young Master Qin, he could kill a Mahayana Realm expert with a single seed, he's not someone for us to discuss lightly. Watch carefully, it's a rare learning opportunity to see experts clash."

Everyone was shocked; they hadn't expected Qin Yi to have such an impressive record. Killing a Mahayana Realm with a single seed was terrifying to imagine. They nodded and focused on watching the fight intently.

Qin Yi stepped forth, the ground in front of him exploded, and he darted through the storm like a swimming dragon, appearing directly before Xiao Jian, launching a punch with an overwhelming force, the roar making one's heart tremble.

Uncle Jian fought back eagerly, entangled with Qin Yi.

Their movements were too fast to follow, only two figures intertwining continuously.

"Boom!"

Another heart-stopping explosion erupted, with a storm sweeping through, sending a figure flying.

Jing Wuyan and the others were astonished; it was Uncle Jian who was sent flying.

"Uncle Jian, do you admit defeat?" Qin Yi asked with a smile.

Xiao Jian looked at Qin Yi in shock, his hand trembling, his palm cracked with blood seeping out. Qin Yi's physical strength is absurdly strong, and in a direct clash, he gained no advantage. What was more frightening, he could clearly feel that Qin Yi wasn't using his full strength.

"Kid, with just this much skill, trying to make me admit defeat might be asking too much."

Qin Yi laughed, "Alright! I was going to leave you some face, but since you're so stubborn, I'll make you submit. When I'm grinding you into the ground later, don't say I don't respect my elders."

"You brat, bring it on."

Xiao Jian's aura surged, and as he spoke, he raised his hand, unleashing a terrifying power that turned into a white light beam shooting from his palm, aimed at Qin Yi.
