"Saint Son Jun, did I hear you correctly? You just said there are Blood Sect mbers in the city?" Wu Qing clutched his heart, his face pale as he looked at Jun Wu. "They even abducted the Spirit Fox Saint Master’s little disciple?"
Although Jun Wu wasn’t quite satisfied with Wu Qing’s exaggerated reaction, he still nodded.
Wu Qing quickly used his other hand to cover his forehead, almost fainting.
He had been the City Lord of Lanqiu City for over ten years. Since Lanqiu City was relatively small, there were not many people around and no big families to give him trouble. It had always been quite peaceful. He had no idea how it happened that there were Blood Sect mbers in the city, and worse, they abducted the Spirit Fox Saint Master’s little disciple!
The entire Sub-immortal Realm probably knew how much the Spirit Fox Saint Master doted on his little disciple. Moreover, he glanced at Jun Wu; the fact that the Saint Son of Yunlan Sacred Land was fond of the Spirit Fox Saint Master’s little disciple was also known throughout the Sub-immortal Realm.
Although the Sub-immortal Realm seed relatively peaceful on the surface, with the Demon Path and Righteous Path not interfering with each other, there were still turbulent undercurrents. The presence of Blood Sect mbers in Lanqiu City was already a bad sign, and abducting such an important person would surely turn Lanqiu City upside down!
Thinking about how he was finally approaching retirent, only to encounter such a matter, Wu Qing wanted to faint on the spot.
"City Lord Wu, this Saint Son hopes that tomorrow morning, you will have the City Lord Mansion’s people search the city for Miss Gu’s whereabouts and find her as soon as possible," Jun Wu said, disregarding Wu Qing’s concerns and directly stating his request.
"Rest assured, Saint Son Jun, I will imdiately summon people to ensure they start searching for Miss Gu at dawn," Wu Qing promised promptly.
He was worried that Miss Gu’s whereabouts had not been found yet, and he would offend Jun Wu. If the two Holy Lands blad him, it would not be sothing a small City Lord like him could bear.
Jun Wu nodded in satisfaction, "This Saint Son awaits City Lord Wu’s good news."
Wu Qing wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, nodding cautiously.
After leaving the City Lord Mansion, Jun Wu returned to the Yunlan Sacred Land’s base. After so thought, he reluctantly took out the Communication Jade Scroll and sent a ssage to Yue Zhao, inquiring if they had any way to ascertain Miss Gu’s location.
Upon hearing about Gu Qingqing’s abduction, Yue Zhao wished he could imdiately rush to Jun Wu’s side. Fortunately, he knew that what he was doing was important and quickly gathered the others together, asking if anyone had a way to find Geng Geng’s whereabouts.
"What’s up with Jun Wu? Geng Geng went out with him for just a few days, and she got abducted? Is he capable or not?" Rong Ye paced back and forth in the room, cursing Jun Wu as he walked.
"Is this the ti to say that? Quickly think of a way to find Geng Geng faster!" Nan Hua shot Rong Ye a look, gripping the Glazed Frost Flower Fan tightly and frowning.
"How can there be Blood Sect mbers in Lanqiu City? And why would they only abduct Geng Geng? Could it be because of what Geng Geng found earlier?" At this point, Mu Chen’s face was very pale, his eyes sowhat gloomy as he asked.
"It may not necessarily be Blood Sect mbers. Jun Wu only said those people wore red clothes and looked like Blood Sect mbers, but they are definitely from the Demon Path. As for their reason for abducting Geng Geng, we are not sure. The most important thing now is to find Geng Geng quickly, or I fear she is in danger," Yue Zhao said rationally, his brow furrowed.
"My talisman needs us to be closer to Geng Geng to find her. Now that none of us are around her, and Jun Wu doesn’t have my talisman, it’s difficult," Rong Ye frowned, sitting on a chair, his tone stiff.
"My divination is the sa; the distance is too far and cannot be calculated accurately," Yue Zhao also frowned. He had just cast a divination but didn’t receive any guidance. The main issue was that Gu Qingqing’s position was indeed a bit far from them, and their thods couldn’t be fully employed.
"Now we can only rely on Geng Geng’s situation and Jun Wu’s skills. If Geng Geng is awake, she will surely think of a way to save herself," Nan Hua said, his brow furrowed, looking extrely worried.
The few exchanged glances, their faces sowhat pale, emotions very agitated, ultimately reluctantly sitting back in their chairs, filled with anxiety.
...
When Gu Qingqing woke up, it was already noon the next day. At first, she was confused seeing the unfamiliar room. When she realized she had been drugged and abducted the previous night, she imdiately awoke, trying to sit up, only to find her body was limp. She had no strength, let alone Spiritual Power, and ended up lying back on the bed, panting heavily.
She sensed her Spiritual Power was sealed and believed she had been fed an elixir that made her weak, which was why she felt completely limp and powerless.
She frowned, thinking Jun Wu must have realized she had been abducted by now and must be searching for her, which gave her so relief as she started to observe her surroundings.
Originally, she thought she would be tortured, given she had been captured and imprisoned. To her surprise, the room she was in looked extrely luxurious; the decorations seed very valuable, and the bed she lay on was very soft. Apart from being drugged, her hands and feet weren’t tied, and she seed to be treated quite well.
This made her suspicious of the captors’ intentions!
Before losing consciousness, she had seen two people in red clothes, instinctively associating them with the Blood Sect mbers who wanted to snatch sothing from her before. However, seeing her surroundings now, she doubted whether they were indeed from the Blood Sect. If they were truly Blood Sect mbers, they wouldn’t treat her so well!
Though her Spiritual Power was sealed, her Divine Sense was intact, and she could easily sense many people outside her room, each with strong cultivation, suggesting this place was a Demon Sect base with tight security.
Thinking this, she decided it was better to first find a way to notify Jun Wu.
"Body, return to normal." A mysterious and ethereal voice flowed from her mouth as an invisible white light enveloped her body.
Imdiately, Gu Qingqing felt her previously sealed Spiritual Power recover, and her strength returned, unlike monts before when she was entirely powerless. Even though she had regained her strength, she didn’t sit up imdiately. Instead, she felt her wrist, realizing her Storage Bracelet had been taken away, a hint of displeasure flashing in her eyes.
After thinking it over, she checked herself, finding a Communication Talisman tucked within her inner clothing. She crushed it, and after a faint ripple, she quickly dealt with the talisman’s fragnts before continuing to lie on the bed.
