Wuchen didn't go into details of what happened here, but instead told Chunyu Changfeng directly that he could find Liu Yunqing.
Chunyu Changfeng was not familiar with this junior from Fanyin Temple, but because of his attention to Liu Yunqing, he knew that the two must have some connection, so he immediately nodded and said:
"Then I will trouble you, young friend, to quickly lead the way."
Wuchen didn't say much, and immediately closed his eyes to search for the slight connection between him and Liu Yunqing.
In fact, Wuchen wasn't entirely confident, because the existence of that faint sense of presence was limited by distance; if it was too far away, it would be difficult to find.
Fortunately, Liu Yunqing had just gone missing, and Elder Mo was injured, so the distance between the two was still within their sensing range.
Following the guidance of the warmth between his brows, Wuchen chased after it in one direction.
The rest of the group, except for the two Golden Core deacons who were arranged by Daoist Jinghui to take Guo Ming back to Shangqing Sect first, quickly followed Wuchen's pace.
Chunyu Changfeng even complained that Wuchen was too slow and suggested that he take Wuchen with him and let Wuchen only point the way.
But Wuchen refused.
"If the speed is too fast, it will be difficult for the junior to determine the direction of the sensing."
Chunyu Changfeng had no choice but to give up, but he still had doubts in his heart.
How come this little monk can sense Liu Yunqing's location without using any medium?
However, this thought only flashed through my mind; compared to finding Liu Yunqing's whereabouts, this doubt was not important.
In the hearts of Chunyu Changfeng, or rather, in the hearts of a certain group of people, Liu Yunqing's safety was even more important than their own lives.
After all, it had already taken them far too long to wait for Liu Yunqing to arrive.
If something happens to Liu Yunqing, whether they will have to wait for the next person, or even if there will be a next person at all, is unknown to them.
Ironically, their excessive attention made them hesitant to act rashly.
Otherwise, why would he be the only one openly mobilized today?
...
Chunyu Changfeng was frantic with worry, but Liu Yunqing was completely oblivious.
Of course, even if she could sense it, she wouldn't have time to pay attention.
Because at that moment, she was feeling really unwell.
After all, since successfully embarking on the path of cultivation, she has rarely had such an embarrassing moment of being grabbed by the back of the neck.
Liu Yunqing could accept that Elder Mo had escaped from Daoist Jinghui's clutches; she had successfully escaped from Nascent Soul cultivators before, so it wasn't surprising.
But Elder Mo stole it without a sound, which is really absurd.
When others discovered that Liu Yunqing had disappeared without a trace, they could only conclude that Elder Mo was incredibly capable, able to figure this out.
The most alarming thing is that Liu Yunqing herself was stolen without anyone noticing, which is truly terrifying.
Especially considering that Elder Mo was seriously injured.
Unable to use his spiritual energy, and feeling the suffocating sensation of being swept away by strong winds and covered by mud, Liu Yunqing was being carried forward at high speed by the back of his neck, while his mind was also racing.
How exactly was she stolen?
Liu Yunqing only remembered that the five of them used all their spiritual power to knock Elder Mo away, following the formation instructions given by Zhuo Ying.
Then Elder Mo feigned death and launched a counterattack, but was fatally injured by Daoist Jinghui. She prepared to use her newly recovered spiritual power to deliver another blow to the opponent.
Before Liu Yunqing could even launch an attack, everything went black before her eyes, and she was grabbed by the back of the neck and abducted.
Before I knew it, I was being dragged around, running wildly through the air, on the ground, and in the water.
Liu Yunqing turned her head with difficulty and saw that Elder Mo's heart meridian was empty and dirty, and the area where his severed arm was was covered with congealed black and red scabs. Then she looked at the speed at which her body was rushing forward.
Liu Yunqing knew that it was probably her friends who were following behind.
Coupled with the intermittent warmth between her brows, Liu Yunqing was basically certain that Wuchen was leading the way.
If only she could use her spiritual power, she could simply slip into the space, but Elder Mo controls her and prevents her from doing so.
After thinking for a moment, Liu Yunqing activated the interference mode:
"Elder Mo, where are you taking this junior?"
Elder Mo was rushing on his way and clearly didn't want Liu Yunqing to speak, so he knocked her unconscious with a single palm strike.
Unfortunately, Liu Yunqing had spent some time with Gu Dai and was in excellent physical condition—he didn't faint.
"Elder Mo is running so fast because he can't beat the people behind him?"
"So who came?"
Elder Mo's face was grim, but he remained silent and increased the force of his strike, about to strike Liu Yunqing again, but Liu Yunqing turned his head and barely dodged it.
Why isn't Elder Mo saying anything?
"Is the injury so serious that you can't speak?"
"How about we stop first, heal our wounds, and then continue our journey?"
"Huh? You dare not stop? So there must be more than just Daoist Jinghui chasing after you, right?"
"Or perhaps a cultivation level higher than the Nascent Soul stage?"
"No, no! The powerful ancestors above the Nascent Soul stage in the Sun Realm don't show themselves easily."
"So how many transformations are there exactly..."
"Shut up!"
Elder Mo finally couldn't hold back any longer and gritted his teeth as he spat out a few words at Liu Yunqing.
However, as soon as he spoke, Liu Yunqing caught a glimpse of the blood that splattered out of Elder Mo's eyes, along with some fragments of internal organs.
Even in this state, Elder Mo still refuses to abandon her and flee for his own life. What is he after?
Liu Yunqing was talking nonsense, but her brows were furrowed as she pondered the real issue concerning her safety.
"Elder Mo is reluctant to let me leave because you need to see me?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Yunqing expected the other party to remain silent again, but to her surprise, Elder Mo gave a cold laugh, saying in a cryptic tone:
"I do have something to discuss with you, but you'd better keep quiet."
Liu Yunqing ignored these words and continued:
"Since you have something to discuss with this junior, Elder Mo, why do you need to act in this way?"
"Wouldn't it be better for us to find a place to sit down and have a proper talk than to come here wounded and on the run?"
As Liu Yunqing spoke, he extended a finger and pointed to a spot below where the two were flying:
“Look, I think that's a good hiding spot.”
Elder Mo found Liu Yunqing's chatter annoying and was preoccupied with how to shut her up. However, his gaze casually swept over the spot that Liu Yunqing had mentioned.
Elder Mo's eyes lit up with joy, a hint of frenzied excitement, and he smiled meaningfully:
"It is indeed a good location."
It was a lake. As long as the two of them dived to the bottom of the lake and concealed their presence, they could hide their aura and make it impossible for the pursuers to find their way.
Therefore, Elder Mo didn't care whether this was Liu Yunqing's trick or not, and immediately dragged Liu Yunqing down hard, falling into the hidden depths of the lake.
After a short while, the group that had been tracking Liu Yunqing flew directly past this place and continued their pursuit.
Seeing this, Elder Mo was slightly relieved.
Instead of surfacing, they threw a portable hut directly from the bottom of the lake, which opened on the seabed.
"Since it is as you suggest, young friend, let's rest here!"
After Elder Mo finished speaking, he fully activated the array of his portable hut and then led Liu Yunqing into the hut.
Liu Yunqing remained calm, even giving Elder Mo a slight smile and saying:
"So, Elder Mo, can you tell us why you took me away?"
