Everyone was shocked to hear her words, and Elder Peng stared wide-eyed at Yan Xuehen.
This Ice Stone Woman is indeed my mortal enemy. Even though I've disguised myself like this, she can still sense my presence.
Wang Wuxie then took the opportunity to strike up a conversation with Yan Xuehen, asking, "Master Yan, why do you think that way?"
Zu An looked at her at this moment. Unlike the fear of the others, he was overjoyed. Sister Yun had come too.
Yan Xuehen and Zu An exchanged a quick glance and replied, "The day of the martial arts competition that the Demonic Sect agreed upon with us is approaching. Logically, they should have come here to familiarize themselves with the situation beforehand. However, we haven't seen her for so many days. This means that either they are too arrogant, or they have already arrived, but not in their open identity."
The members of the nine sects of Taoism frowned. Although they disliked the demoness from the demonic sect, they had to admit that she was no arrogant fool and could not possibly be so presumptuous.
“Master Yan is absolutely right. Although I have instructed my disciples to strengthen patrols on Purple Mountain, it is clear that we cannot stop someone like Yun Jianyue,” Wang Wuxie said.
“I don’t think so. Although Yun Jianyue is powerful, there are so many of us here. If she comes openly, we’ll feel embarrassed to touch her. But if she stirs up trouble first, we’ll have a reason to take action, and she’ll be the one who suffers in the end.” Wan Tongtian couldn’t help but raise his opposing opinion.
"Hehe, I can only say that Brother Wan doesn't know that demoness well enough. Yun Jianyue's actions are often unpredictable, and sometimes she even seems a bit crazy," Guan Chouhai laughed.
Elder Peng narrowed his eyes slightly, this
I've remembered this grudge.
She naturally didn't want to bear this reputation, so she insisted that someone in the crowd had captured her apprentice, leaving the group with no choice but to agree to let her investigate their respective residences. Unsurprisingly, they found nothing.
While comforting her and telling her not to worry, Wang Wuxie promised to do everything he could to help her find a disciple.
The competition had to be postponed for the time being, and everyone returned to their respective villas.
The entire Purple Mountain was in a state of panic. If even someone with Peng Wuyan's cultivation level could be captured silently, wouldn't it be even easier to capture other disciples?
The elders of each faction were equally worried and instructed some core disciples not to leave their sight, lest they repeat the same mistakes.
Even Yan Xuehen returned to her villa and stayed indoors. She was a little scared. What if the mysterious person had taken the opportunity to kidnap Chu Yan if she had left last night?
Zu An returned to the house and again instructed Xie Daoyun not to run around in Zishan during this time, lest something unexpected happen to her.
After all, Peng Wuyan's combat power seemed to be even greater than hers.
Of course, he wouldn't be afraid if it really was someone else's doing, but the key issue would be if it was someone else entirely.
Just then, he received a message that Elder Peng from Kongming Island had come to his door.
Zu An felt a chill run down his spine. He had witnessed her unreasonable behavior at the Golden Summit before, where she had so many sect leaders completely under her thumb.
Why are you looking for me? Do you suspect I arrested Peng Wuyan?
Although somewhat reluctant, he was worried that she might do something irrational because of her disciple's disappearance, so he came out to greet her: "Elder Peng, do you have any clues?"
The other person didn't answer, they just stared intently.
He was with him.
Zu An felt a little uneasy under her gaze, so he continued, "Elder Peng, rest assured, I have also ordered my soldiers to search all over Zishan. If there is any news about Miss Peng, I will inform you immediately."
Elder Peng then withdrew his gaze and looked at Xie Daoyun, Zhang Zijiang, and the others beside him, and slowly said, "I have important matters to discuss with Lord Zu privately."
Zu An was taken aback, wondering what she wanted to tell him. Could it be that she had really discovered that Peng Wuyan had been captured by a sect leader of the Daoist sect? And that's why she wanted him to uphold justice?
Xie Daoyun and Zhang Zijiang were both somewhat worried. Elder Peng's cultivation seemed to be quite high, and now that he was in a fit of anger and alone with them, there was no guarantee that he wouldn't do something rash.
However, Zuan was not afraid. He gave them a reassuring look and told them to go outside and wait.
Then he looked at the middle-aged woman opposite him: "Elder Peng, is there anything you want to say to me?"
Elder Peng stared straight at him, then suddenly chuckled: "Lord Zu really does like to flirt, even bringing a beautiful woman disguised as a man with him when he came to Zishan."
Zu An's eyes widened instantly, not because the other party recognized Xie Daoyun's identity, but because of her voice.
Previously, her voice was that of a typical middle-aged woman, with a slightly hormonal imbalance that gave off a "keep away" vibe.
But at this moment, her voice was exceptionally charming and pleasant, with an innate arrogance that seemed to imply that everyone else was trash.
Perhaps only that person could blend two completely different temperaments so perfectly. Zu An looked at her with surprise and doubt: "Yun... Sister Yun?"
"So Lord Zu really is colluding with the leader of the Demonic Sect!"
"At this moment, Elder Peng resumed his previous voice, looking at him with a series of cold laughs."
Zuan was startled; had he actually been tricked?
Oh my god, now I'm really in deep trouble, I'm going to be seen as an accomplice in kidnapping Peng Wuyan?
etc……
He stared at the woman in front of him in disbelief, but how could that voice sound so similar?
Seeing his confused and bewildered expression, Elder Peng suddenly chuckled, then reached out and removed the mask from his face, revealing a stunningly beautiful face with her long, flowing hair cascading down.
"Sister Yun!" Zu An was both surprised and delighted, and couldn't help but run over and hug her tightly.
