Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 931 932: Power Without Virtue

After Bai Siyin and the others left, Qin Yi found Wu Zhao.
"Boss, you're amazing."
Wu Zhao saw Qin Yi, full of admiration.
Now, it seems everyone believes that the black mist dispersing and the death of the Sky Demon Spider was Qin Yi's doing.
Taking credit is something that only needs to be done once; basking in others' achievements and receiving praise leaves Qin Yi a bit embarrassed.
Qin Yi shifted the topic, "How are your injuries?"
"All better, I can run and jump, and my cultivation has even improved. Boss, you were right; combat is the best cultivation."
Qin Yi smiled, glanced at the low house, and said, "Let the survivors inside come out; they are safe now."
Wu Zhao nodded and called out the survivors from inside.
More than a dozen people came out of the low house, including men, women, the elderly, and children, their eyes filled with fear.
However, upon seeing the black mist outside had disappeared, amidst the corpses of the Sky Demon Spider, their eyes became dazed.
This used to be their home, with familiar neighbors and relatives, but now only they survive. Even though they were lucky to keep their lives, it's hard to feel happy.
Among them, two elderly couldn't help but cover their faces and sob.
Qin Yi sighed slightly and instructed Wu Zhao, "Take them out first; we will arrange everything later."
Wu Zhao led the people away, and seeing these survivors stumbling along, Qin Yi's heart twisted like a knife.
After the disaster, all that remains are scars and endless pain.
Hopefully, these people can overcome their pain and continue living strong.
Qin Yi felt a deep sense of helplessness; even if he could save these people, he couldn't comfort the pain in their hearts.
After all, he is human, not a god.
Qin Yi walked around the village several times, hoping to find more survivors, but he was disappointed. Only the corpses of the Sky Demon Spider littered the ground, not a single life.
Qin Yi went outside and found Xiahou Jun heading towards the village.
"What are you guys heading in for?"
Xiahou Jun said, "We found some survivors and have already taken them out. We're just planning to go back in to see if we missed anyone."
Qin Yi nodded slightly.
Finally, the Peace Army spent several hours combing through this devastated village, but they found fewer than fifty survivors.
This small village originally had nearly a thousand people, but fewer than fifty survived, the rest were all devoured by beasts.
"Zhu Chuan."
"Master Qin, please instruct."
Qin Yi looked at the continuously sobbing, despondent survivors, sighed slightly, and said, "These people are left to you; make sure to settle them properly. I will have someone allocate the necessary expenses to you."
"Yes, Master Qin, rest assured, I will settle them properly," Zhu Chuan assured.
"Xiao Bai."
"Don't worry, I know what to do, the money will arrive soon," Bai Siyin said.
Qin Yi nodded slightly.
"Zhu Chuan, one more thing, contact the officials and assist them in disposing of the Sky Demon Spider's corpses here."
"Yes."
Qin Yi noticed Zhu Di looking at him expectantly and suddenly remembered his previous promise to take a photo together.
"Come on, let's take a picture."
Qin Yi wasn't in a great mood, so during the photo, his smile wasn't very good.
But Zhu Di was already very satisfied; having a photo with Qin Yi was enough for him to boast for a while.
Qin Yi didn't want to stay here much longer, feeling guilty about the unjust souls of the village.
He had the Peace Army return and instructed them to remain vigilant in the coming days, unsure when more Sky Demon Spiders might appear.
In Western countries, several cities have been attacked by Sky Demon Spiders, so caution is necessary.
Hopefully, there's only this one occurrence in Longxia, and no more Sky Demon Spider swarms appear, because even if rescue is timely, innocents will still die.
Qin Yi instructed Xiao Bai to keep a close watch and immediately inform him if a Sky Demon Spider swarm appeared again.
The rest of the matter is left to the Guardian Family Zhu family and the authorities.
...
...
A day later, Qin Yi returned to Yinfeng City.
Qin Yi behaved normally at home; he didn't want his emotions to affect those around him.
Actually, even now, Qin Yi's mind occasionally flashes with the shadow of that mysterious strong figure.
He was somewhat regretful, because when that mysterious figure tore the void and left, only then did Qin Yi realize that he forgot to ask if the person was Demon King Chu, Chu Xun.
Divine Emperor Qin Mu once told him that few could match him, and Demon King Chu was one of them.
But at that time, he was startled by the other's cultivation and forgot to ask.
However, thinking carefully, it's not very likely, because Qin Mu said that when cultivation reaches that level, they hardly ever return to Earth, and if they do, it would be a clone; otherwise, this planet wouldn't withstand their power and would disintegrate instantly.
Qin Yi was truly curious about the person's identity, so he sought out Azure Dragon and the others.
After Qin Yi spoke, Azure Dragon and the other three were speechless.
From their expressions, Qin Yi knew he was asking in vain.
Xuanwu looked at him strangely, "Are you having delusions? I've lived this long and have never seen such a terrifying figure."
Qin Yi: "..."
"That's just your lack of experience and narrow vision. I saw it with my own eyes, how can it be false?"
Xuanwu's mouth twitched, and his nose was twitching with anger.
White Tiger, full of shock, looked at Qin Yi and said, "Honestly, I've been through many hardships, but such a strong figure as you've described, I've neither seen nor heard."
Qin Yi looked at Azure Dragon and Vermilion Bird, "Do you know any clues?"
Both shook their heads slightly.
Xuanwu said, "Could this person be from the Primordial times?"
Qin Yi nearly couldn't resist calling him a pig-brain, "Why would someone from the Primordial times want to help me?"
"Maybe he has a kind heart, like Yun Mengyao."
Azure Dragon shook his head, "Absolutely impossible. As Qin Yi said, this person's cultivation reaches the heavens and earth, shaking the heavens and crying ghosts; once cultivation reaches this level, almost all emotions are gone. He would never meddle in trivial matters. Moreover, if he were from the Primordial times, it would be good if he didn't destroy Earth."
Qin Yi slightly nodded, "This person not only has divine cultivation, but also speaks in Longxia language, indicating he is a Longxia native. Do you think it's possible that some great figures are secretly protecting Earth, we just aren't aware of it?"
Everyone was startled; although it was just speculation, Qin Yi's guess seemed relatively plausible. Otherwise, why would such a terrifying figure take action?
Azure Dragon bitterly laughed, "Looks like Earth's complexity is beyond our imagination, in the end we were arrogant."
"Suddenly feeling that the title of Guardian God seems a bit fake, I always thought there was no one in this world whose cultivation surpassed Old Dragon, but now it seems we were truly looking up from the bottom of the well," White Tiger laughed bitterly.
Qin Yi didn't think so, "You've been guarding Longxia for decades, you absolutely deserve the title of Guardian God.
I rather think, if that mysterious figure is a strong protector secretly guarding Earth, then he is incompetent, undeserving. The Heavenly Pits repeatedly appear, and although he has the power to resolve them, he doesn't take action, it's simply despicable."
