Qingfeng Li and his group left the Forbidden Area of the Kunlun Mountains quickly in just a little while.
They hadn’t gone far when he felt an acute pain in his heart. He threw up a mouthful of blood and weakly fell onto the ground.
“What’s the matter, dear?” Xue Lin asked worriedly. She was frightened by the view so she ran over to help him stand up.
Not only her, both Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake looked at Qingfeng Li with worry.
He had just bled from his nose and now he was bleeding from his mouth too. This must have caused him a lot of essence blood.
It could be seen from his pale face and weary expression that Qingfeng Li was injured.
He looked at Xue Lin as he spat out another mouthful of blood. He said in a low voice, “My heart is aching badly, like something important to me had been taken away.”
Xue Lin had experienced such feelings before. She also spat out blood when she heard about Qingfeng Li going missing.
“Could it something have happened in Eastern Sea City?” Xue Lin murmured in doubt.
She knew that most of his relatives, friends, and classmates were in Eastern Sea City. He would only get extremely worried if something were to happen there.
Qingfeng Li nodded. “I also felt something big happened back in Eastern Sea City. Let’s hurry back.”
He did not want to waste precious time. He took an elixir out of his interspatial ring and swallowed it to replenish his vital essence and heal his injuries.
Then he hurriedly headed towards Eastern Sea City with Xue Lin, Sky-Devouring Snake, Black Puppy, Miaoyi Jiang, and Skeleton Devil.
Since Qingfeng Li was very worried, they sped up and got back there in less than two hours.
The first thing Qingfeng Li did upon his return was to look for Ruyan Liu.
He did not see her. But her crying sister Jiaojiao Liu was still there.
“Why are you crying, Jiaojiao? Where is your sister and Little Apple?” Qingfeng Li asked as he felt that the scene did not bode well.
He knew that Jiaojiao Liu rarely cried. She didn’t even cry when she was abandoned and kicked out from home with nothing.
However, now she was wailing ceaselessly as if something heartrending had happened.
Jiaojiao Liu lifted her fragile head at Qingfeng Li’s familiar voice. Tears burst out of her eyes as she ran into his arms.
She was crying so hard that she couldn’t even talk. Tears dripped off her face like streams. She was so agitated and upset that she didn’t know what to say.
“Try to keep calm, Jiaojiao, and tell me where your sister and Little Apple are.” Qingfeng Li wiped off the tear on her face and rubbed her cheek. He transferred some vital essence into her body to help her settle down.
Jiaojiao Liu looked at him as she kept on wailing. She was too agitated to talk, which wasn’t helpful at all.
Qingfeng Li urgently wanted to find out what had happened to Ruyan Liu because his instincts told him that there must have been something wrong.
As he predicted, Jiaojiao Liu slowly stopped crying and said, “Brother in law, a middle-aged man in red appeared and sucked sister and Little Apple into a white bottle. Then he just disappeared.”
Qingfeng Li was frightened at her words, staggering and falling to the ground.
Although he had already had speculated, he was still incredibly sad and angry when he found out about it.
The entire Eastern World of Self Cultivation knew that Ruyan Liu was Qingfeng Li’s woman.
In addition, as the alliance chief of the Eastern World of Self Cultivation, he beat the Western World of Self Cultivation by defeating over ten thousand invading western self-cultivators. It shook the entire continent, and no one dared to get on his bad side.
That was why Qingfeng Li felt safe leaving to go to the Kunlun Mountains. He had no idea that some dauntless self-cultivator would dare to take Ruyan Liu and Little Apple away with a bottle.
As a powerful self-cultivator with many treasures, Qingfeng Li sure knew that it must have been a strong spatial bottle in order to take two people inside. There must be immense space hidden in the bottle.
Not just anyone would be able to acquire a spatial treasure like that.
But no matter what his background was and how powerful he was, Qingfeng Li would never let him go without paying the price with blood – the price for taking Ruyan Liu and Little Apple away.
“Here is a piece of paper and a pen, Jiaojiao. Try to draw out his face and I will order an arrest for him on the entire continent.”
Jiaojiao Liu was aware of how urgent it was. She knew that they had to find the middle-aged man in red in order to rescue her sister and Little Apple.
She held back her sorrow and wiped off her tears. Then she jotted down the man’s face relying on her memory.
She was a good student with great memories and drawing skills, so the picture she drew of the middle-aged man was very vivid.
Qingfeng Li frowned as he realized that he had never seen this man before.
But there were billions of people on the continent, so there must have been many of them who he hadn’t seen before. Qingfeng Li believed that as long as he searched carefully, he definitely would find the man out.
As the alliance chief of the Eastern World of Self Cultivation, Qingfeng Li had a huge reputation, status, and power not only in the Eastern World but also in the West.
Many sects of the Western World of Self Cultivation had gradually reached out their olive branches to Qingfeng Li. Some small sects even declared allegiance to him.
They knew how powerful he was and decided to submit to him in advance in case he was to cause them trouble in the future.
Qingfeng Li released the drawing of the middle-aged man in red to the entire Eastern World of Self Cultivation. He also gave it to some sects in the Western World so they could assist him in finding Ruyan Liu and Little Apple as well.
He also issued a wanted poster that was distributed around the world. Whoever provided clues of the man would be rewarded an emperor level technique, an emperor level treasure, as well as ten vitality stones.
The rewards were abundant enough to tempt those self-cultivators who were already in the spirit emperor realm, not to mention all his rewards were of the highest level.
