Upon hearing this, the two little ones flew up and hovered above Ao Bupa's head.
Seeing this, Mu Qing added, "It's not him, it's someone else. Can you sense it?"
The two little ones chatted in the air for a while, then flew forward one after the other.
Seeing this, Mu Qing knew that they would have to search slowly.
Mu Qing and the others followed behind Dian Dian and Xiao Jin, exploring left and right. They spent ten days traveling across most of the Western Wilderness Continent, but still could not find any trace of Aunt Liu.
On the eleventh day, Xiao Jin and Diandian led a few people to a remote village.
Upon arriving at the foot of the mountain near the village, Xiao Jin and Diandian suddenly became excited and flapped their wings, flying towards a large brick and tile house in the village.
Then, it hovered above the rooftop and wouldn't leave.
Mu Qing and the others exchanged glances, each with their own suspicions.
Ao Bupa was so excited that he was about to run towards the large brick house when Murong Yu stopped him.
Murong Yu said, "No rush. Let's observe first, or rather, let's go to the village and inquire about some information."
As they were talking, an old man gathering herbs came down from the mountain. When he saw them, he looked very wary.
Murong Yu was surprised to find that the old man was actually a cultivator with the cultivation level of Foundation Establishment.
Ao Bupa stepped forward and asked eagerly, "Fellow Daoist, have you seen a woman with blue eyes, a delicate face, and a gentle personality?"
When the old man heard Ao Bupa ask this question, his eyes darkened, and he became even more wary.
On the surface, he maintained a kind and amiable demeanor, waving his hands repeatedly with a smile, saying, "Never seen you before, never seen you before..."
Seeing that he couldn't get any information from the old man, Ao Bupa frowned and stepped aside, no longer asking any questions.
The old man walked slowly and unsteadily down the mountain.
Ao was not afraid of the three of them and discovered that the house the old man had returned to was the same one where Dian Dian and the others had stayed.
The group exchanged glances, a bad feeling creeping into their hearts.
At this moment, Ao was neither afraid nor concerned about the rules of the secular world, for cultivators could not interfere with them.
He released his divine sense to carefully explore the entire village.
We focused our investigation on the house with the blue bricks and tile roof where they had stayed.
Strangely, he did not find any trace of Aunt Liu in the house with its blue bricks and tiled roof.
Nevertheless, his unease did not lessen; on the contrary, it intensified.
A flash of blue light appeared in Mu Qing's eyes. He looked up at the large brick and tile house and saw a woman chained up in the basement.
The woman was emaciated, her face was ashen, and her hair was snow-white.
And in the basement where the woman was locked, a glimmer of light appeared.
Clearly, an isolation artifact that prevents detection was used.
Judging from its appearance, the magic artifact is of a high grade, which explains why Ao is not afraid of not noticing anything unusual.
Mu Qing's face was cold and stern as he said in a deep voice, "The person is inside. Let's go and rescue them."
Mu Qing thought to herself, "If it's too late, I might not be able to see him one last time."
However, he did not say those words aloud.
However, Ao Bupa seemed to have noticed it nonetheless.
He rushed towards the brick house without regard for anything, but as soon as he entered, he was struck by the old man he had met earlier, who used a magical weapon.
Ao was not afraid of being attacked by Foundation Establishment stage cultivators, so he should have been fine.
However, the old man's magical artifact, made of an unknown material, caused Ao, who was not afraid of serious injury, to cough up blood.
Mu Qing stepped forward to support Ao Bupa, who was unsteady on his feet, and fed him a Blood Spirit Fruit.
