"What!" Everyone on the field was shocked. Peng Wuyan had just been found, but now Pei Mianman had disappeared again?
However, the most shocked person was not the people from the nine sects of Taoism, but Zu An. He flashed to the front of Master Huo Ling and asked anxiously, "What? Where did she go?"
Qiu Honglei was also stunned, never expecting Pei Mianman to disappear. She didn't even have time to be jealous, and instead looked at her master to see what she had to do.
Yun Jianyue remained expressionless. This brat was all sweet talk last night, but today all his thoughts are on another woman.
People around them also turned their heads to look. Why was this kid in such a hurry? Could it be that he had really taken a fancy to Miss Pei?
However, considering Pei Mianman's beautiful face and stunning figure, it's normal for him to like her at such a young age.
Master Huoling's face turned pale and then red, but she couldn't care less about anything else at the moment. She explained in detail, "I went out last night for something. When I came back, everything was normal. This morning, I saw that it was almost time and Manman hadn't gotten up yet. I went to her room to look for her and found that she was gone."
"Later, I mobilized the disciples of Biluo Palace to search, but there was still no trace of them. That's why I came here to see if you have any clues."
Wang Wuxie shook his head: "We just found out about her disappearance, and we don't have any clues."
The others chimed in, clearly unaware of how she had disappeared.
At this moment, the disciples in the arena gradually realized what had happened, and they were all in an uproar. Unlike Peng Wuyan's safe appearance, Pei Mianman was a very beautiful woman with a devilish figure. If she disappeared, what might happen to her?
Hard to imagine.
Thinking of this, many people began to feel sorry that such a beautiful girl had ended up like this; it was really pitiful.
Zu An was even more worried about Pei Mianman's safety, and hurriedly asked Master Huoling for some details: "Manman's cultivation is not low, and with Grandmasters like you and Palace Master Wan guarding her residence, how could she have been abducted silently?"
Wan Tongtian, standing to the side, looked somewhat uneasy: "Ahem, I was out for a while last night, and it's very likely that the incident happened during that time."
Upon hearing this, the people around them gave each other strange looks. Everyone had heard about the feud between Wan Tongtian and Master Huoling back then, and now that the two of them were out together in the middle of the night, it was hard not to make some connections.
Fortunately, since Pei Mianman's safety was at stake, no one joked around.
At this moment, Master Huoling said, "It's strange, I checked Manman's room and there was no sign of a struggle at all."
The others were puzzled: "Miss Pei's cultivation is not low, who could have kidnapped her silently?"
Pei Mianman's ability to advance all the way to the finals, while partly due to luck, was undeniable due to her ability to emerge as the top performer in her group. Moreover, her Fu Hao Owl-like aura was equally extraordinary, making her a top-tier expert in the martial arts world. Even if a Grandmaster attacked her, unless it was a sneak attack, she wouldn't be completely defenseless.
The group exchanged opinions, and as they talked, they looked towards Yun Jianyue and Qiu Honglei.
"Why are you looking at me?" Yun Jianyue said irritably.
Yan Xuehen, who had been silent all along, spoke up: "The disappearance of Miss Pei is very similar to the disappearance of Miss Peng before. I wonder who kidnapped Miss Peng, and..."
How were they rescued? Perhaps we can find clues to saving Miss Pei here.
She was well aware of the relationship between Zu An and Pei Mianman, and since Chu Chuyan and Pei Mianman were also best friends, she naturally couldn't just sit idly by.
Guan Chouhai, Wang Wuxie, and the others glanced at her subconsciously. Wasn't this woman always aloof from worldly affairs? Why was she suddenly so concerned about this matter?
However, most people looked at Yun Jianyue, asking her to explain how she rescued Peng Wuyan.
Only Zu'an knew that Qiu Honglei's disappearance was staged, and she couldn't provide any useful clues.
At this moment, Yun Jianyue coughed lightly: "Actually, this is a secret of our sect. Since it concerns Junior Nephew Pei today, I will not hide it. Our sect left a tracking talisman on Wu Yan. It will automatically activate if she is missing for more than a certain period of time. I sensed it and followed the trail. I found her in a cave. However, unexpectedly, she was the only one in the cave at the time. The person who kidnapped her is nowhere to be found."
Master Huoling hurriedly asked, "Where is that cave?"
Yun Jianyue said somewhat awkwardly, "What a coincidence that it's in the same place. Once they discovered that Wu Yan was missing, they must have known that the place had been exposed. How could they dare to continue hiding there?"
Upon hearing this, the people from Biluo Palace felt it made sense, and their expressions all darkened.
Guan Chouhai looked at Qiu Honglei: "Junior Nephew Peng, who exactly arrested you? Didn't you notice anything at all?"
Qiu Honglei shook her head: "I was cultivating at the time when I was suddenly knocked unconscious. When I woke up, I was locked in that cave. The other party didn't know their purpose, and they didn't interrogate me or anything. Later, I was..."
They've been rescued.
These lines were taught to her by Yun Jianyue long ago, so she wasn't afraid of any flaws.
"The one who can knock you out silently must be at least a Grandmaster. But which Grandmaster in the world would be so disregarded as to launch a sneak attack on a junior?" Master Jianhuang pondered.
Li Changsheng spoke up: "It's most likely Yun Jianyue from the Demonic Sect."
Upon hearing this, Yun Jianyue raised an eyebrow: "Couldn't those night elves also possibly do it?"
Night elves excel at sneak attacks and assassinations, and even without the cultivation of a Grandmaster, they can indeed accomplish such feats.
"Shadow Tower?" Everyone's expression changed. This mysterious assassin organization was feared by everyone.
