Chapter 377 - 210: Galloping Through the Rain, Body Technique Reaches Great Success (3)
"Where is Liou Yuan, my junior brother?" Tian Qiweng put down the note and asked Jia Panshan about Liou Yuan’s whereabouts.
"Practicing body technique, left the city." Jia Panshan, who witnessed the entire process of Liou Yuan galloping through the storm, responded quietly to Tian Qiweng and then added, "Mr. Liou is always measured in his actions. The sect’s mission deadline hasn’t ended yet, so he won’t go far and should be back soon."
Tian Qiweng nodded slightly, put down the note in his hand, and said to the Wind Chasing Division gathered in the hall, "Let’s wait for him. If he doesn’t return in half a day, Jia, my junior brother, and I will go together."
Jia Panshan was the strongest among the Wind Chasing Division disciples at the Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer on this mission.
His temperament was also the most stable, making him undoubtedly the best choice to accompany Tian Qiweng.
Liou Yuan indeed didn’t delay for too long.
After traversing through the storm for some time and experiencing the speed of the Great Achievement Realm’s Treading Flowing Waves technique, he returned toward Qingbao County.
He returned to Qingbao County in less than an hour.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, he found everyone gathered in the main hall.
This immediately made Liou Yuan sense that something was amiss.
Sure enough, just as Liou Yuan set foot inside, Tian Qiweng handed over the note that the sparrow had brought back and said with a serious tone, "Liou Yuan, my junior brother, something has happened. Take a look."
Liou Yuan took the note, scanned the handwriting on it, and his eyelids immediately narrowed.
There were only a dozen or so words on the note.
"Trapped in the Demon Lair, urgently need rescue! Telling Tian Qiweng to bring Liou Yuan quickly, start immediately upon receiving the message, do not delay even slightly."
From the strokes of the handwriting, one could see the haste of the person writing it.
Liou Yuan didn’t recognize Yan Yingsi’s handwriting, but from the tone, he could deduce it was written by Yan Yingsi.
"I knew this crazy girl would get into trouble chasing after them. Doesn’t she know not to pursue a desperate enemy?" Liou Yuan put down the note, his expression also turning serious.
Though he was cursing Yan Yingsi with his mouth, in his heart, he was already assessing the extent of the danger Yan Yingsi was facing this time.
Yan Yingsi was the top performer in this Outer Sect trial, and it’s no exaggeration to say that few could defeat her below the Foundation Establishment level.
For someone as proud as her to have to send out a call for help, it shows how critical the situation is, and the opponent must be extraordinarily strong.
"It surely can’t be a Foundation Establishment level opponent. If it were, she wouldn’t even have had time to catch her breath; she’d be dead in an instant without a chance to write any letter."
"Either the number of their opponents exceeds the Wind Chasing Division members she took with her, or there’s also a master among them, and not just one."
Liou Yuan immediately analyzed the extent of the predicament Yan Yingsi faced and felt a bit more at ease; as long as it’s not a Foundation Establishment, he wasn’t afraid.
"Captain Yan specifically instructed to bring Liou Yuan, my junior brother along, which shows her trust in Mr. Liou."
The first thought Liou Yuan had upon seeing the note was to analyze the difficulty of this mission, while Tian Qiweng and the other members of the Wind Chasing Division first reacted to Yan Yingsi’s attitude.
She expressly instructed Tian Qiweng to bring Liou Yuan along,
Clearly, at this critical moment, she was confident that Liou Yuan could make a difference.
Admittedly, although Yan Yingsi and Liou Yuan were at odds,
They both acknowledged each other’s skills to some extent, understanding that it’s your enemy who often knows you best.
"The Demon Lair, that woman chased them far, all the way to Qingyuan State." At this critical juncture, Liou Yuan didn’t bother with formalities, opting not to use Mr. Yan to refer to Yan Yingsi, his tone filled with exasperation.
The Demon Lair is located in Qingyuan State, which is nearly ten thousand miles away from Qingbao County. Yan Yingsi really chased them for ten thousand miles.
The Demon Lair is called such because, before the cultivators of Linlang Domain expelled the demonic cultivators from Jiuli State, it was a gathering place for them.
The terrain there is extremely complex, filled with caves, with one cave connecting to dozens of exits. It’s not only rugged but also filled with various mechanisms, arrays, and restrictions left behind by the demonic cultivators.
Sane people wouldn’t easily venture inside.
Evidently, in Liou Yuan’s eyes, Yan Yingsi was a crazy woman with impaired judgment.
"Things have come to this point; there’s no use saying more."
"Mr. Liou and I should set off for the rescue as soon as possible."
Tian Qiweng was indeed a pragmatic person, or perhaps his mind was occupied with Yan Yingsi’s safety.
Although he lost to her in the captain’s office competition, it was a fair and upright victory or defeat, with which Tian Qiweng was satisfied.
The Wind Chasing Division has strict discipline, and with Yan Yingsi being the captain, specifically naming him to act, Liou Yuan couldn’t shirk the responsibility.
After hearing Tian Qiweng’s words, he nodded gently.
Fortunately, Tian Qiweng was also an expert who could stand firm in crucial moments; otherwise, Liou Yuan might have cursed again.
"Mr. Liou, do you need to prepare any means?" Tian Qiweng stood up and asked Liou Yuan before departure.
Actually, what he meant was, does Liou Yuan, as an Array Master, need to prepare materials for setting up arrays just in case.
Liou Yuan patted his storage bag and replied lightly, "They’re all in here."
"Then let’s go!" With the urgency of the situation, Tian Qiweng didn’t say much more and gestured for Liou Yuan to leap out of the courtyard with him.
Both practiced a body technique, and under the gaze of the Wind Chasing Division members, they vanished into the storm in a few leaps.
The cultivators of the Wind Chasing Division present all wore solemn expressions, indicating they had no confidence in their hearts about this mission.
Yan Yingsi was recognized as the strongest in the fifth peak of the Outer Sect’s Wind Chasing Division.
Even she was caught in a trap, and with the weaker Linglong Sword Tian Qiweng going to assist, the help would be limited.
"Fortunately, there’s Mr. Liou, the Array Master, following along, hopefully, they will remain safe." Yi Qingyue, the one with the closest feelings to Yan Yingsi in the Wind Chasing Division, looked at the pouring rain outside, comforting herself as she spoke.
"Yes, there’s no one more suitable than Mr. Liou to go." Jia Panshan nodded heavily.
