Upon arriving at the outer gate, Ling Yun personally handed Su Yang a sailboat and gave him some instructions, after which Su Yang learned how to use it.
Ling Yun was quite generous, directly gifting the Sail Cloud Boat to Su Yang. For the Zi Yang Sect, a Sail Cloud Boat wasn't a huge sum of money, but being able to befriend a top expert like Su Yang was something he could only dream of.
After Su Yang got his hands on the Sailboat, he tried it out himself and felt it was alright, somewhat like...
A car flying in the sky?
The energy required for the Sailboat is true qi, but Su Yang does not have true qi. Therefore, Ling Yun personally applied a large amount of true qi to his Sailboat and sealed it with talismans on the bow. In this way, Su Yang only needs to operate it with simple controls.
With the sailboat, the journey to Ziyun City was much faster. There was no need to transfer to a carriage or anything like that, and it only took half a day to get back to Ziyun City.
All things considered, including travel time and rest time, his round trip would only take about three days.
Upon returning to Ziyun City, Su Yang glanced at the relatively spacious area of the herb fields behind the mountain and stopped. Many disciples widened their eyes upon seeing the sailboat, as if they had seen some peerless magic treasure.
However, their expressions quickly darkened again.
As soon as Su Yang disembarked from the cloud boat, he noticed the disciples coming and going. Clearly, their emotions were a bit off, and when he returned, Su Huang and the others didn't even notice him.
Something's strange!
After a while, Su Huang walked over from not far away. Su Huang was very surprised when he saw Su Yang, especially when he saw the Fanyun Boat behind Su Yang, his surprise became even more intense.
However, he quickly calmed down and waved his hand, saying, "You guys go back to training first."
After saying that, the disciples, who had been listless, slowly walked towards the training ground.
Seeing this, Su Yang frowned and asked, "What happened? Why do you all look like that?"
Su Huang clicked his tongue, looking like he wanted to say something but didn't dare to.
Finally, he sighed and said, "We certainly can't keep this from the Ancestor forever. It happened so suddenly that even we never expected it."
Hearing this, Su Yang frowned even more deeply.
Su Huang slowly said, "Su Lingxue has been kidnapped."
What?!
Su Lingxue has been arrested?
In that instant, the aura that erupted from Su Yang's body seemed to instantly suck away all the air within several feet around him, and a deathly oppressive atmosphere instantly enveloped Su Yang's entire body!
Su Huang's body went limp, and he could barely breathe. He looked at Su Yang as if he were seeing a messenger from hell!
For the first time, Su Yang's eyes revealed murderous intent!
"Who kidnapped him? And why did they take Xue'er out of all of them?!" Su Yang shouted.
The overwhelming aura instantly crushed Su Huang, forcing him to kneel on the ground. He said with difficulty, "I... I tried my best with the full strength of the Su family, but I couldn't shake them. The enemy is too strong. Even if Su Lingxue used the formation given to her by the Ancestor, it couldn't stop them. Please forgive me, Ancestor!"
Su Yang stared coldly at Su Huang, lifting the latter up with one hand: "Going all out? Then how come you're all standing here?"
Su Huang, struggling to breathe, said, "Illusion... their illusion is too strong, we can't defend against it..."
Illusion?
Su Yang snorted coldly, releasing his grip with one hand, and the suffocating aura instantly dissipated. Su Huang, landing on the ground, gasped for breath, his mind blank. For a moment, it felt as if Su Yang had truly taken his life!
Su Yang stared intently at Su Huang and said, "Explain yourself clearly: who are they, and why did they kidnap Xue'er? If you can't explain it clearly, you might as well not live in this world!"
Su Huang was covered in cold sweat.
He knew from the beginning that Su Yang's most important person was Su Lingxue, and he also knew that Su Yang would be furious if Su Lingxue was captured! He just never expected that Su Yang would value Su Lingxue so much, and this was after he actually witnessed such terrifying killing intent from Su Yang!
Su Huang hurriedly explained, "The people who came are from the Illusionary Nether Sect. They are extremely skilled in illusion techniques. As for their origins, I don't know much, but... their specialty is the art of absorbing spiritual energy."
Su Yang said, "Explain it more clearly."
Su Huang said, "The Spirit Absorption Technique allows one to absorb the cultivation, physique, and soul of someone weaker than oneself, thereby inheriting all of that person's strength. I'm afraid Su Lingxue's capture might be due to this..."
Su Yang coldly asked, "Do you know where the Illusionary Nether Sect is?"
Su Huang said, "I...I don't know."
Su Yang glanced at him: "Summon all the elders! Anyone who knows anyone from the Illusionary Nether Sect will be richly rewarded!"
Su Huang cleared his throat and hurriedly summoned the other six elders.
In an instant, all the elders of the Su family were covered in sweat. They knew that Su Yang had returned, and it was precisely because of his return that they dared not go to see him. They could not escape the blame for Su Lingxue's arrest, but at this moment they had no choice but to come.
Su Yang's gaze swept over them, and he said in an icy tone, "You are all the highest-ranking people in the Su family. Let me ask you, where is the ancestral home of the Illusionary Nether Sect?!"
Everyone trembled and dared not speak.
Su Yang added, "Those who know the truth, I will reward them with a fine elixir!"
Earth-grade Elixir!
The highest quality pills in the Su family are only of the Spirit grade. Even if they are only rewarded with a single Earth grade Spirit pill, it is equivalent to the Su family not eating or drinking for several decades!
At this moment, the Fifth Elder stepped forward and said, "Ancestor, I roughly know where the Illusionary Nether Sect is..."
Su Yang narrowed his eyes and said, "Speak."
The Fifth Elder said, "I heard that it is located in the northwest of Ziyun City. It is mainly a mountainous area, but it is shrouded in poisonous gas all year round, so very few people go in and out. It is said that the Huanyou Sect is located there."
Su Yang's lips curled up slightly: "Alright, since that's the case, I will definitely reward you handsomely with a Grade 1 Spirit Pill when I return."
Upon hearing this, the Fifth Elder was overjoyed and hurriedly knelt down, saying, "Ancestor's strength is unparalleled in the world. This trip will surely be a success!"
Su Yang waved his hand: "No need, I'm leaving immediately. You all stay at the Su family and wait for my news."
"Respectfully bidding farewell to the Ancestor!"
The seven elders clasped their hands in a fist salute.
Su Yang glanced at them, waved his hand, and a gust of air immediately lifted the sailboat, which sped rapidly toward the northwest.
Upon seeing this, the elders were secretly alarmed, but at the same time, they breathed a sigh of relief.
What's astonishing is that Su Yang had just returned from the Ziyang Sect and had already received a Sail Cloud Boat. You should know that the Sail Cloud Boat is very expensive to build, costing over a thousand spirit stones! Compared to the hundred spirit stones they gave him, it seems insignificant.
They were also puzzled as to why Su Yang paid so much attention to Su Lingxue, without even asking about the strength of the Illusionary Nether Sect.
Wouldn't that be too reckless?
They dared not speak, and could only keep these words to themselves.
Of course, there was also an elder who was secretly delighted. For him, whether Su Yang returned or not, he was the one who would benefit the most.
