"If it wasn't for her looks, then what was it for?"
Hu She and Fu Yan both scoffed at Qin Yi's words.
Obviously, in their eyes, if a man spent so much effort to kidnap a woman, there was really no special reason other than that.
Qin Yi smiled but did not explain anything. Instead, he took out a scroll of painting and placed it in front of the two of them.
Hu She lowered his head to look at the woman in the painting. He immediately curled his lips and said, "Haven't we already seen this before?"
Fu Yan also said, "Could it be that you want us to see that it was this woman's beauty that caused you to make a mistake, and not your own fault?"
Qin Yi shook his head and said, "I know that it's useless for me to say anything to you now. However, seeing is believing, and hearing is false. It's not too late for you to come to a conclusion after you take a closer look at this painting. "
Hu She and Fu Yan both raised their heads to look at Qin Yi. Obviously, their trust in Qin Yi was still a little lacking.
However, after a moment of silence, they finally chose to believe in Qin Yi. At that moment, the two of them turned their eyes to the painting that Qin Yi had taken out.
In the beginning, they did not see any clues. After all, they had already seen this painting at the beginning. Even if they took it out and looked at it again now, what difference would it make?
However, after a while, they suddenly realized that the thing on the painting seemed to have shown something unusual.
Fu Yan was the first to notice it. Among the two of them, he played the role of supporting and attacking the enemy from the back. There was no doubt that if one wanted to play such a role, one would not be qualified to do so without sufficient eyesight.
In terms of observation, he was slightly better, so he could see the clues faster than Hu She.
At this moment, he raised his head to look at Qin Yi. Suddenly, an extremely astonished look appeared on his face. He looked at Qin Yi in disbelief, then lowered his head to look at the portrait on the painting.
Fu Yan's unusual behavior immediately attracted Hu She's attention. At this moment, he seemed to have found the direction and then did the same action as Fu Yan.
Very quickly, his expression changed greatly, and he said, "How is this possible? Why does the woman in the painting look a little like you? "
"Could it be that you really have some kind of relationship with this woman?"
Facing the two's astonished questions, Qin Yi chuckled and said, "The woman in the painting is actually my elder sister. Now you should know why I did everything I could to save her, even at the expense of becoming enemies with the Sect Master, right? "
"But I have some things that I can't figure out. Since she's your sister and you're from the same Sect, why didn't you go look for her directly and reunite with her? Instead, you went through so much trouble to kidnap her and even offended Lord Sect Master for this? "
Qin Yi smiled bitterly and said, "If things could be solved so easily, I don't think it would be so troublesome."
"What exactly is going?"
After hearing this, Hu She and Fu Yan also vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
At that moment, Qin Yi did not hide anything and told the two of them everything that had happened.
After hearing those words, the two of them had a drastic change in their expressions. Even their eyes had lost some of their luster.
"You're saying that the Sect Master might have sealed their memories and kept them hidden because of an unspeakable secret? And the reason you went through so much trouble to take them away was to protect them? "
Without a doubt, after listening to Qin Yi's explanation, Hu She and Fu Yan finally began to gradually understand why something that was clearly very simple had become so complicated.
Obviously, if the truth was as Qin Yi had said, and if Qin Yi had rashly gone to reunite with his relatives, not only would he not have succeeded, but he might even have obstructed the Sect Master's plan and be eliminated by the Sect Master. Even if he died, no one would know what had happened to him!
"Brother Qin, is there a misunderstanding here?"
Hu She clearly still did not believe that the Sect Master he had always respected would be a despicable person who would do such a thing.
What if Qin Yi was overthinking the whole thing? What if the Sect Master had only taken a fancy to their talent and was nurturing them as secret geniuses?
Wasn't such a thing very common in the martial world?
After all, there were many geniuses in the sect, but there were very few who could truly become the leader of the disciples. It was even rarer to find someone who could surprise others.
In order to nurture such geniuses, the higher-ups of many sects would choose geniuses with heaven-defying talent and nurture them as the strongest geniuses. However, in order to maintain their mysteriousness and to protect their safety, their existence would be completely kept a secret until the geniuses could truly stand on their own.
However, after listening to this, Qin Yi shook his head and said, "I can't make a conclusion about this for the time being. However, as I said before, I only believe what I see with my own eyes. What I see now is that he wants to harm my family and friends. Therefore, even if I have to give up my life, I will snatch them back from his hands. If the truth comes to light and I find out that I've really wronged him, I will naturally stand up and admit my mistake. When that time comes, I won't have any complaints even if I have to die! "
Fu Yan and Hu She stared blankly at Qin Yi. At this point, the doubt and anger in their eyes had completely disappeared.
Qin Yi's words were not unreasonable. If they had experienced this themselves, there was no doubt that they would have done the same.
"Although the truth hasn't come to light yet, we still choose to believe you now."
Hu She and Fu Yan said in unison, "I'm sorry, Brother Qin. We have wronged you previously. We feel that we should help you with something now. Is there anything you need our help with? "
