Chapter 26
Yun's father raised his hand to stop the anxious Yun Qi and said, "We don't know where Lu Yun is right now. Searching blindly will not yield any results. We will contact the police in the human world and the guards in the demon realm."
Yun's father also comforted Yun Qi's emotions. Yun Qi understood that he didn't know where the group of demons had gone. If they were to search for them, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Yun's father accompanied Yun Qi to the police station, while Yun's father went back to the demon realm to find the guards.
They split into two groups and proceeded simultaneously. Yun Qi was anxious, but he knew that rushing wouldn't get anything done. He could only suppress his emotions and go to the police station. This kind of thing wasn't under the jurisdiction of the ordinary police station, but they had a way to reach the paranormal bureau above. Yun's father found the highest-ranking person in the police station and told him about it.
The fact that demons have kidnapped humans in the human realm is no small matter. When the police found out, they told them not to panic and that they would immediately contact the paranormal bureau.
Yun Qi and his father sat in the office waiting. He was filled with regret. He should have gone back with Lu Yun to get it. If he had been there, Lu Yun wouldn't have been arrested.
Yun's father glanced at Yun Qi, who was tense all over, and knew what he was thinking. He said, "Don't worry, those demons are probably new to the human world and haven't found a base yet. Lu Yun will be fine."
Yun Qi took a deep breath and forced a smile: "I know, I know, Lu Yun will be alright."
Yun's father wasn't a talkative person, nor was he good at comforting people. He could only pat Yun Qi on the shoulder to reassure him.
Yun Qi stared blankly at the patterns on the floor, then suddenly asked, "Father, is Lu Yun planning to propose to me?"
Yun's father was taken aback. At this point, there was no need to hide it anymore. He nodded: "Yes, he contacted us a long time ago, saying that he wanted to propose to you and asked us to help him."
Yun Qi asked bitterly, "When did it start?"
Yun's father recalled for a few seconds: "It happened last week."
Yun Qi felt a lump in his throat and his breath caught in his throat. It was during those days when Lu Yun was acting strangely, those days when he had his suspicions. No wonder he was so busy, no wonder he was nowhere to be seen every day. So, so he was planning to surprise him with a marriage proposal.
His heart felt like it was being soaked in acidic water, a sour and swollen sensation. He sniffed and wiped away the tears that were about to well up.
He must find Lu Yun. Lu Yun, you absolutely mustn't be hurt. You haven't proposed to me yet, we're not together yet, you absolutely can't be hurt.
The paranormal bureau arrived quickly, within five minutes, and took Yun Qi and her father away. After waiting another five minutes, the demon guards arrived, and Yun Qi's father successfully reunited with them.
The demon realm guards and police were communicating and asked some questions about Lu Yun. After they finished asking, the police told Yun Qi, "We will do our best to find him. Family members, please don't worry."
The demon guards nodded in agreement. They brought a locator and said, "This is a locator that our people secretly placed among this group of demons during the last capture. They are still moving, so Lu Yun will be fine."
Yun Qi nodded. Seeing that they were ready to set off to make the arrest, Yun Qi stood up and said, "I want to go too. Please take me with you."
The people from the Demon Realm had no objections, and the police hesitated for a few seconds before agreeing. Yun Qi turned to his father and said, "Father, Dad, you go back and calm the others down first. We'll be back soon."
Knowing that Yun Qi wouldn't be going back with them, how could he possibly feel at ease? "Alright, be careful, Xiao Qi. Don't be reckless. There are professionals here, understand?"
Yun Qi nodded. The demon guards used a teleportation array, which could take the police with them and ambush them from the front.
Based on the instrument's prediction of the demons' path, they already knew where the demons would land. Yun Qi stood in the teleportation array and nodded to his father.
——
The wind whistled into his ears, causing a stinging sensation. Lu Yun slowly opened his eyes, his mind still a jumbled mess. He remembered that he had just been on the phone with Yun Qi, and he was almost at the hotel…
Then a few strangers appeared in his car, said a few inexplicable words, and then took him away. Now, when he opened his eyes, he was 10,000 meters in the air.
Lu Yun's body stiffened, not daring to struggle wildly. If he struggled and fell, he would be dead. He wasn't that stupid.
From this position, Lu Yun couldn't see who was grabbing him, but from their conversation in the car, he had already guessed quite a bit. They were probably from Xiao Qi's world. So why were they grabbing him? And why did they say they smelled so good? Were they succubi too?
Lu Yun wasn't afraid of heights, but anyone would be scared flying in this environment without any safety measures. He tried his best to control his body and prevent anything from happening.
It seems they haven't realized he's awake yet. Lu Yun let out a soft breath. Xiao Qi is still waiting for me at the hotel. How much time has passed? Is Xiao Qi waiting too long? How do I get back? How can I get back?
As Yun Qi and his group traveled, they kept checking the demons' route, and sure enough, it followed their prediction. The policeman said, "Following this route, they will eventually stop here."
He showed the tablet to Yun Qi and said, "This area contains many abandoned shipping containers, so it might be a bit troublesome to find them."
The demon guard said, "Don't worry, we can sense them when we get closer."
Yun Qi added, "Me too. As long as he's within a hundred meters, I can know Lu Yun's location."
This is a unique skill of their demon realm. As they got closer and closer to the container, Yun Qi clenched her hands and said, "Lu Yun, wait for me, I'll be there soon."
No sooner had Yun Qi and his group arrived at the container than they saw the group of demons arrive on the GPS. A demon guard took out a badge and had Yun Qi put it on; this badge would prevent other demons from sensing them.
The demon guards walked at the front, while Yun Qi focused on sensing Lu Yun's aura.
After walking a few steps, they stopped together, their voices firm, and said in unison, "It's in that container over there."
The police looked ahead and saw only a huge blue shipping container, very large.
The police nodded and quickly set up their defenses. The demon guards led the way, cautiously moving forward, with Yun Qi following behind them.
When Lu Yun was put down, he was still pretending to be unconscious. He heard several voices talking about extracting yang energy and controlling the chaotic demon realm. This made his heart tighten. Control the demon realm? What about Xiao Qi?
He quietly opened his eyes and carefully observed the scene before him. In the open space in the center stood five demons from the Demon Realm. They all had large, sharp horns and wings, and their tails were also very thick. With a sweep of their tails, they could create a gust of wind. They looked only slightly different from Yun Qi.
The demon sensed something and turned its head sharply to look over. Fortunately, Lu Yun closed his eyes quickly, otherwise it would have been discovered that he was already awake.
He was worried about Yun Qi, wondering what Yun Qi was doing now, as he had been missing for quite some time.
Meanwhile, Yun Qi, whom he was worried about, was waiting outside in a container, the two separated only by a sheet of metal.
Yun Qi had already sensed Lu Yun inside. He desperately wanted to rush in, but he couldn't. Rushing in might harm Lu Yun and the other hostages.
Yunqi cannot do that.
He could only patiently wait for the police and guards to be deployed, then for a demon to spread its wings, climb onto the top of the container, tear open a small hole, and peek inside.
They and the police planned to use an encirclement tactic, attacking from above and from all sides. Fortunately, they had a large number of people with them, and Yun Qi also flew up with them. Entering from above was the best option, and it would be even better if they could land next to Lu Yun.
The police were counting down below. Yun Qi waited nervously, watching the mouth shape return to zero. Then, the demons and the police rushed in together. There was a loud bang, and a hole was torn in the metal sheet, sending dust flying everywhere.
The demons who were still talking were stunned. They didn't expect the police to find their way here, nor did they expect that the demon guards would be here. They also didn't expect that the demons hadn't sensed them at all.
Before they could react, the police and demon guards quickly moved forward to capture them.
As soon as Yun Qi landed, he saw Lu Yun trapped in a corner. He didn't even glance at the demons; this was none of his business. Lu Yun also saw him, his eyes widening: "Little Qi?! What are you doing here? Them, them?"
Yun Qi rushed over and hugged Lu Yun tightly. The demons didn't tie Lu Yun up, perhaps thinking that a human like Lu Yun couldn't do anything. Yun Qi, with red eyes, pulled Lu Yun to his feet and looked him over from all angles before letting out a sigh of relief: "Thank goodness you're alright. They didn't do anything to you, did they?"
Before Lu Yun could even react to Yun Qi and the others finding him, he had already recovered from the shock of being rescued. Looking at the demons who had been captured and tied up, he took a deep breath: "Am I dreaming?"
Yun Qi almost burst into tears. He said, "I'm not dreaming. I've come to find you. Are you alright?"
Lu Yun shook his head: "No, I was just brought here by them not long ago. They've been talking the whole time and haven't had time to pay attention to me."
Yun Qi: "That's good, I'm glad you're alright. You scared me to death."
Seeing Yun Qi's reddened eyes, Lu Yunxin felt a pang of pain as well. "I'm sorry for making you worry. How long have you been waiting for me?"
Yun Qi said, "I'll come find you as soon as I hang up the phone."
He turned his head and saw that the demons had been captured, and his heart was at ease. He said, "Let's go back, don't keep them waiting."
Lu Yun paused, her earlobes turning red: "You, you knew everything?"
Yun Qi wanted to pretend, but she couldn't help it. She laughed with red eyes and tears glistening in her eyes: "I guessed it. You kept it from me for so long. I thought you were cheating on me. I even wanted to lock you up in the Demon Realm."
Lu Yun was taken aback, not expecting that his actions would cause such a big misunderstanding for Yun Qi, but upon hearing Yun Qi's last words, he also smiled.
