He stared at his subordinate, his tone filled with anxiety: "It's been so many days, why haven't we found Nanzhi yet?" The subordinate lowered his head and said in a slightly lowered voice: "Marshal, our people found a suspicious place, but when we arrived, there was no one there. I suspect that someone from the Soul-Seizing Sect took Nanzhi away!"
"Ming-seeking Sect?" Xiao Jingyi's doubts deepened. "How could a killer organization that aims to kill imperial officials be involved in the operation to rescue Nanzhi?" A trace of worry flashed in his eyes. The Ming-seeking Sect had never failed after receiving a mission!

However, he did not back down, but instead strengthened his resolve.
He took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "No matter who they are, they can't stop me. Nanzhi must die! Xiao Jinghan! He can't even think of curing Biluo's poison!"
