Locked up

"Ming Cult! If Xuanyuan Jian dies at their hands, the Sect Master will certainly not let them off!"

Sun Yuanjie was originally planning to sneak into the Ming Cult, but now with another person to look for, he only felt a headache.

Fortunately, Sun Yuanjie was currently certain that the man their Sect Master was looking for was a Disciple of the Ming Cult.

However, the Tianyi Sect had never dealt with the Ming Cult before, so he did not know what the identity of the person the Sect Master spoke of actually was.

However, the other party's strength was formidable; being able to kill the Sect Master's pawn meant his Realm was likely not low.

Even within the Ming Cult, he should not be an unknown figure.

Since Sun Yuanjie did not yet know who Xiao Feng was, he began to inquire privately about the identity of the man who had clashed with Xuanyuan Jian that day.

As well as what method should be used to enter the Ming Cult.

Sun Yuanjie's understanding of the Ming Cult was entirely based on rumors.

Therefore, Sun Yuanjie acted very cautiously.

But Sun Yuanjie did not know that from the moment he and Xuanyuan Jian stepped into the town, they had already been secretly monitored by Ming Cult Disciples.

And their identities were already known to the Ming Cult.

This included the matter of the conflict between Xuanyuan Jian and Xiao Feng, which had reached the ears of Wu Hai and Su Mo before Xiao Feng even returned to the Ming Cult.

As for what Xuanyuan Jian's final outcome was, the Ming Cult Disciples did not know.

They did not dare to follow Xiao Feng, only knowing that the other party had gone to cause trouble for Xiao Feng and had not returned since.

The Ming Cult Disciples assumed that Xiao Feng had perhaps already dealt with that guy.

However, Sun Yuanjie's arrival made Wu Hai notice something amiss.

Sun Yuanjie had been inquiring about news of Xiao Feng in the town for several days.

After hearing the report from the Ming Cult Disciples again, Wu Hai directly had someone call Xiao Feng over to ask about the matter between Xiao Feng and Xuanyuan Jian.

"Foster Father, do you need me for something?" Xiao Feng had been Cultivating, and upon hearing from a Disciple that Wu Hai needed him, he hurried over.

"Did you meet anyone when you took the Taowu down the mountain two days ago? Where is that person now? People from his Sect have come looking and are inquiring about you." Wu Hai told Xiao Feng the situation.

"Inquiring about me? Could it be that head Disciple of the Tianyi Sect?" Xiao Feng suddenly thought of Sun Yuanjie.

"That's right, the person who came is him. Ever since the day Xuanyuan Jian clashed with you, he went missing after leaving the city, so some suspect that you did something to him. Is this true?" Wu Hai asked.

"The person is indeed with me, but there is no major harm; I just locked him up. His identity is special, and if I let him go, who knows what other trouble it might cause, so I simply kept him locked up here."

"Foster Father, did Sun Yuanjie come to hold me accountable? If so, I will release him now."

Xiao Feng thought that it was because he had locked up Xuanyuan Jian that he had caused some trouble, and was preparing to release him.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Xiao Feng say this, Wu Hai said directly: "Since this so-called righteous Sect and the Ming Cult have long been irreconcilable, there is no need for you to return the person."

Hearing Wu Hai's objection, Xiao Feng looked up, looking at Wu Hai with some confusion.

"Those righteous Sects shout about attacking and killing the Ming Cult; the enmity between the two sides has long been irreconcilable, and the Tianyi Sect is one of them. Since their Young Lord has fallen into our hands, why should we return him?"

"After all, you only clashed with him, and no one is certain that he was taken by you. Furthermore, I have heard that the Tianyi Sect Master dotes on this son the most."

"Although this son is as stupid as a pig and has poor Aptitude, he still overcame all opposition to establish this son as the Young Lord. Keeping such a hostage in our hands might be of greater use."

Hearing Wu Hai put it this way, Xiao Feng only felt a bit of a headache.

He had originally been thinking about how to extort a sum from the Tianyi Sect before keeping Xuanyuan Jian.

Now, listening to what Wu Hai meant, it seemed he had more ideas.

Xiao Feng was unwilling to worry about this matter, so he directly released the person from the System space and threw him in front of Wu Hai.

"This is that Tianyi Sect Young Lord Xuanyuan Jian. Since he is still considered useful, I will leave him to Foster Father to deal with. My Realm has been fluctuating these past few days, and I am likely to have a Breakthrough, so I don't have much energy to spend on this guy."

After Xiao Feng finished speaking, he nodded to Wu Hai and turned to leave.

Xuanyuan Jian was preparing to find a way to escape, but suddenly felt a massive pressure, not inferior to Xiao Feng's, pressing directly onto him.

Turning his head, he saw Wu Hai's face.

He might not know Xiao Feng, but could he not know Wu Hai?

This former Devil Head, an existence that made all righteous Sects tremble with fear!

At this moment, he finally knew Xiao Feng's true identity.

That person was actually the Xiao Feng who had stirred up the winds and clouds before!

Xuanyuan Jian had never regretted anything so much. If he had known earlier, he shouldn't have been so arrogant at that time. How could he have dared to snatch a Spirit Beast from Xiao Feng's hands?

It was just a pity that it was too late for regrets now.

Looking back at Sun Yuanjie, since he was not sure if Xuanyuan Jian had been taken away by the Ming Cult people.

He could only stay in the town first, searching for Xuanyuan Jian's whereabouts, and then look for an opportunity to mix into the Ming Cult.

But with Xuanyuan Jian's whereabouts unknown, and having never found an opportunity to enter the Ming Cult, he could only keep waiting and searching everywhere for news about Xuanyuan Jian.

Several days passed, and seeing that the chance of finding Xuanyuan Jian was slim, Sun Yuanjie could not even contact the other Cultivators responsible for protecting Xuanyuan Jian.

Sun Yuanjie knew he had caused a huge mess, so he could only hurry to send the news back to the Tianyi Sect to inform the Sect Master.

Sun Yuanjie did not even dare to send a voice transmission to the Sect Master.

Sending a message back meant that at least he still had a few days to search for Xuanyuan Jian.

As long as he could successfully find Xuanyuan Jian, or know Xuanyuan Jian's whereabouts, before the people sent by the Sect Master arrived, he might be able to escape a catastrophe!

The message reached the Tianyi Sect three days later.

Unfortunately, the Sect Master was not in seclusion.

After learning this news, he was extremely annoyed and immediately wanted to come to the Ming Cult in person.

The message Sun Yuanjie sent back also said that the person who had a conflict with the Young Lord was very likely the person of Luck that the Sect Master was looking for.

"Unreasonable! Simply unreasonable! If anything happens to my son, I will definitely make the Ming Cult pay the price!"

The Tianyi Sect Master prepared to set off for the place where Sun Yuanjie was currently located.

But before he could leave the Sect, several Elders ran over with panicked expressions and whispered a few words to the Sect Master.

"Is this true?" The Tianyi Sect Master's expression became even uglier.

"Sect Master, if this matter is not handled well, it could very likely be a great catastrophe for the Sect. If other matters are not important, Sect Master should put them aside for now!" The several Elders who rushed over had worried expressions.

The Tianyi Sect Master's expression was ugly, but he also knew that now was not the time for him to leave. He could only turn back to the Sect Master's main hall and call for his confidants.
