After saying that, Tan Jianye's wife continued, "Tan Jianye, I'm calling you to let you know so you can be mentally prepared!"
After saying that, Tan Jianye's wife hung up the phone immediately!
Enraged that his wife dared to hang up on him, Tan Jianye roared in the room.
Liu Xiaoyuan slapped Tan Jianye across the face, silencing him instantly.
"This is my room, not your home. Why are you howling like a ghost in the middle of the night?" Liu Xiaoyuan slapped Tan Jianye so hard that blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Liu Xiaoyuan realized that Tan Jianye was a real scoundrel, but he admired Tan Lingshan's mother's actions. For her daughter, she didn't care what kind of person he was; nothing was more important than her daughter's life.
"Where is the agreed location?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked.
Upon hearing this, Tan Jianye's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked, "Mr. Liu, are you planning to rescue my daughter?"
Liu Xiaoyuan went to rescue Tan Lingshan because Tan Jianye was right about something: the other party might not release her even if they took the small cauldron, and might even kill Tan Lingshan and her daughter.
Although Liu Xiaoyuan wasn't familiar with Tan Lingshan, he had a good impression of her. Besides, Tan Lingshan was a good friend of Murong Yuyan, and if something happened to Tan Lingshan, Murong Yuyan would probably feel guilty for the rest of her life.
"Where is the place we agreed to meet?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked again.
Tan Jianye immediately said the name of the place, then took out his phone and dialed his wife's number.
"Hey, come back here right now! Mr. Liu has already agreed to rescue Ling Shan. Bring the small cauldron back to me right now, do you hear me...?"
Before Tan Jianye could finish speaking, Liu Xiaoyuan slapped his phone across the face, smashing it to pieces. Tan Jianye was also sent flying, losing several teeth in the process.
Tan Jianye crashed heavily to the ground, letting out a painful howl. Murong Yuyan, who was standing nearby, was completely stunned, not expecting Liu Xiaoyuan to make a move so suddenly.
After slapping Tan Jianye away, Liu Xiaoyuan walked to Tan Jianye's side, grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up, coldly saying, "Let me tell you, I didn't agree to save your daughter because of your pleading. I just don't want to see your daughter and wife die because of this."
After saying that, Liu Xiaoyuan tossed Tan Jianye aside.
"Yan, go back to your room and wait for my good news," Liu Xiaoyuan said to Murong Yuyan.
Murong Yuyan nodded subconsciously and followed Liu Xiaoyuan out of the room.
"Liu Xiaoyuan, be careful!" Murong Yuyan said to Liu Xiaoyuan. This was a rescue mission for Tan Lingshan, which was bound to be dangerous, so Murong Yuyan was naturally worried.
Liu Xiaoyuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll be fine. Just stay in your room and wait for my good news."
After saying that, Liu Xiaoyuan took the elevator down.
The other party specified a deserted area on the outskirts of Shanghai. Because it was located in the suburbs and it was two or three in the morning, it was practically deserted.
Liu Xiaoyuan didn't know where the place was, so he took a taxi there. Along the way, Liu Xiaoyuan kept urging the taxi driver to hurry up, because only by getting there before Tan Lingshan's mother could the tragedy be prevented.
If I arrive too late, and Tan Lingshan's mother has already exchanged the small cauldron with the other party, then the other party might kill Tan Lingshan and her mother.
Upon arriving at the destination, Liu Xiaoyuan paid the taxi driver the fare. Liu Xiaoyuan did not rush into the wasteland.
Because it was the height of summer, the wasteland was overgrown with weeds, some of which were even taller than a person and grew exceptionally lush.
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately released his divine sense and began to search for the whereabouts of Tan Lingshan and the others. Liu Xiaoyuan's current divine sense range can detect an area of about three kilometers in radius.
Through his divine sense, Liu Xiaoyuan immediately discovered the whereabouts of Tan Lingshan and the others, and Tan Lingshan's mother had also arrived there before him.
Moreover, through divine perception, it was seen that Tan Lingshan's mother was preparing to hand over the small cauldron in her hand to the other party.
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately realized that the situation was not good. Once the other party obtained the small cauldron, Tan Lingshan and her daughter would be in danger.
Sure enough, no sooner had Liu Xiaoyuan had this idea than the other party snatched the small cauldron from Tan Lingshan's mother's hands.
It seems the other party intends to take direct action.
Liu Xiaoyuan dared not delay and immediately used his supernatural power to fly over. Now that Liu Xiaoyuan was a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining, he could naturally use such a supernatural power as flying through the air.
However, the flight distance cannot be too far, and the speed is not particularly fast, but it is still much faster than driving.
The two cultivators immediately sensed Liu Xiaoyuan's arrival. They stopped what they were about to do to Tan Lingshan and her daughter and instead focused their attention on the direction from which Liu Xiaoyuan was flying.
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately landed in front of the two cultivators. Upon seeing that Liu Xiaoyuan's cultivation level was higher than theirs, the two cultivators immediately became wary.
These two cultivators, like the two from last night, were both at the mid-stage of Qi Refining. For Liu Xiaoyuan, dealing with them would be as easy as stepping on an ant.
Upon seeing Liu Xiaoyuan, both Tan Lingshan and her daughter appeared excited, especially Tan Lingshan, who was so excited that she fidgeted and made whimpering sounds.
Upon seeing this scene, the two cultivators immediately knew that there was trouble tonight. Liu Xiaoyuan was probably here for Tan Lingshan and her daughter, or for the small cauldron.
"Brother Daoist, may I ask what brings you here?" one of the cultivators asked, clasping his hands in greeting.
Liu Xiaoyuan said calmly, "I think you all know very well why I've come here."
“Brother Dao, we are disciples of the Heavenly Extreme Sect. Please give us face for what happened tonight. We will definitely repay you in the future,” the other party said.
The talk of future rewards is utter nonsense. The point of saying this is to use their sect to pressure Liu Xiaoyuan and make him back down.
The meaning behind their words was clear: we are disciples of the Heavenly Extreme Sect, you'd better not provoke us, the Heavenly Extreme Sect is not someone you can afford to offend, if you know what's good for you, you'd better leave quickly.
Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "I've never heard of the Heavenly Extreme Sect."
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, the other party's face immediately darkened. Damn it, this was clearly a sign that they didn't take the Tianji Sect seriously.
“Brother Dao, one shouldn’t be so arrogant. Our Tianji Sect has a reputation, after all. Isn’t what you’re saying a bit too presumptuous?” the other party said coldly.
Liu Xiaoyuan chuckled and said, "Arrogant? I'm just stating the facts. I've never heard of your Heavenly Extreme Sect. Alright, release him now, hurry up, I don't want to fight!"
