“What the hell did Zuxian say just now? I don’t believe that the weak cultivators in this city dare to attack me.” Huang Ba muttered as he walked alone, looking for Zi Diao and the three women. “Where exactly are they? How could they hide from my senses for so long? Tch! I’m sick of this! They should be in this inn area, so it would be better if I destroyed this area.”

‘Crap! I will die if this bastard does that, and the three of them will also be seriously injured.’ Zi Diao inwardly cursed as she trembled.

However, Zi Diao could sigh in relief once Huang Ba abandoned his intention, especially since he was in enemy territory and there was no one to protect him. “Sigh, it would be better if I returned to the Nangong Clan now, so I can have fun with Qian Ye. Besides, our plans for the Ouyang Clan have been delayed for too long, so I have to make sure Nangong Xiangling does her task properly, or my ancestor will punish me if she fails.”

Huang Ba looked to the surrounding area for a moment before walking away, but Zi Diao was in no rush to move from hiding, especially since his senses were still focused on her area.

‘I didn’t expect that the Nangong Clan was in cahoots with his clan, and they even planned something against the Ouyang Clan.’ Zi Diao suddenly smiled after listening to the voice transmission she had just received. ‘Phew! Meng Xianzi is here, so they are safe now, but I’m worried about Jiang Chen and the others, and I don’t dare imagine what those two women have done to them.’

“Yuyi, Zi Diao is hiding at the Song Inn on the city side, so I want you to go there to pick them up.” Wasting no time, Long Yuyi flew away to carry out her master’s orders, and Meng Xianzi observed Huang Ba, who had already left the city.

“Is he the man we are looking for?” Lyra asked her.

Meng Xianzi nodded to her. “That man is indeed our target, and he is the successor of the Huang Clan, but he has been looking for trouble with the wrong person.”

“Does Ling Yun want to kill him? Isn’t that the same as asking for trouble with the Huang Clan?” Nu Shen asked with a frown.

“Hehe.” Meng Xianzi chuckled at that. “Little princess, you don’t know my disciple at all, and the current him is more cunning and vicious than me.”

“Oh?” Nu Shen looked at her in surprise. “What can Ling Yun do with his low cultivation? He even had to rely on you to catch that guy, or else he wouldn’t be able to win against him.”

“Aren’t you the same as him? Don’t you still have to depend on your mother and kin?” Meng Xianzi asked back in a mocking tone, which made Nu Shen angry, but she had to swallow his anger. “Little princess, you have to understand that there are many things that we can’t solve alone, and our allies are our strength as well, so there’s no harm in using their strength if we can’t solve our problems. Anyway, you underestimated him too much, and he can do many things that you would never have imagined before. Additionally, he won’t hesitate to do the worst things you can imagine to women, so you must behave yourself if you meet him, or you’ll regret it yourself.”

“Humph!” Nu Shen just snorted and turned her head away.

Lyra shook her head at her princess attitude, as she was too spoiled, and she then asked Meng Xianzi. “Are we going to capture that guy now? Look, he’s going to leave using his flying artifact, or we’re going to lose track of him.” .

“No need.” Meng Xianzi then took out a talisman and injected her qi into it, and it flew towards Huang Ba before latching onto his back without him realizing it. “This way, we won’t lose track of him, and I want to confirm something about his clan’s relationship with the Nangong Clan, so we’ll follow him after Yuyi brings them here.”

“Yuyi!” Zi Diao called out once she saw Long Yuyi, and she came out of hiding while canceling her stealth.

“Where are they?” Long Yuyi asked as he looked around for the three women.

“Wait a minute.” Zi Diao immediately used her earth element, and the earth wall covering the hole was blown away instantly, which made Long Yuyi stunned after she saw the three women still sleeping in the hole.

However, Long Yuyi immediately jumped into the hole, and she carried Tang Yao and Yuan Meng. “Aunt Zi, you can take Sister Liqin with you, and we will go straight to my master’s place.”

“All right.”

After they had arrived, Meng Xianzi flew her flying artifact to stalk Huang Ba, and she then checked the condition of the three women. “As I thought, that old woman is one of the elders of the Demon Sect, or rather their sub-sect, the Yanluo Sect.”

“The Yanluo Sect?”

Meng Xianzi nodded to them. “That sect is a dual cultivation sect like the Eternal Spring Sect, but they use various evil methods to increase their cultivation, and they also don’t hesitate to use various kinds of pills and potions to control their victims.”

“Does that mean the three of them are under the old woman’s control now, Master?” Long Yuyi asked with a frown.

“Yes.”

“Can you remove the potion from them?” Zi Diao worriedly asked.

“I’m an assassin, and I don’t know anything about pills and potions, so I can’t do anything to them.” Meng Xianzi then looked at Nu Shen. “You have the light element, right? I want you to try to remove the potions from their bodies, or they will continue like this.”

“Please save them, princess.” Lyra said as she pushed Nu Shen forward.

In fact, Nu Shen doesn’t really like humans, especially since they are greedy and always destroy nature for their own benefit, so she doesn’t want to do anything to them. Even so, she still crouched down beside Tang Liqin and channeled her light qi into her body, but she then informed Meng Xianzi. “The potion can’t be removed using light qi, and we need strong fire qi for that, or we can capture the man to find the old woman’s location, so we can force him to give us the antidote.”

“A strong fire qi, huh?” Meng Xianzi muttered to herself.

Long Yuyi then said to her. “Master, Ling Yun’s fire qi is stronger than any cultivator, and he should be able to remove the potion, so I think we can take them back to our residence first.”

“You’re right about that.” Meng Xianzi replied with a nod of approval. We don’t know when Ling Yun will arrive in this realm, and if we leave the potion there for too long, their bodies will completely absorb it, making it impossible to remove.”

Zi Diao panicked upon hearing that. “What about my son and his friends? We don’t know where the old woman took them, and I’m afraid they won’t be able to escape her control forever.”

“I know you want to investigate that man’s relationship with the Nangong Clan, but we have no other choice but to capture that man now, so we can look for that old woman as soon as possible.” Lyra said to Meng Xianzi.

“All right, you can wait here, and I will capture Huang Ba right now.” After he said that, Meng Xianzi immediately disappeared from their sight.

.

Before long, Meng Xianzi had appeared above Huang Ba’s flying artifact, and he took several steps back the moment he saw her. ‘Fuck! What is this woman doing here? I have to escape right now, or I will fall at her hands!’

“Guah!” Huang Ba groaned in pain as a dagger pierced his right palm, which made his returning jade slip out of his hand before being crushed by another dagger, and Meng Xianzi blasted him into the wall. “Gah!” ‘Shit! I’m **ed up!’

“Do you think I will let you escape?” Meng Xianzi said as she moved to face Huang Ba, and she immediately strangled his neck. “Where is that woman named Jishi? If you tell me now, then I will give you an easy death, and vice versa.”

‘Damn it! So she was the one who saved the three women? If I had known that she was the culprit, I would have run away yesterday!’ Unfortunately, Huang Ba misunderstood Meng Xianzi, but he then challenged her. “Heh! Kill me if you dare! I know you are strong, but you are still not as strong as my ancestor! Besides, the cultivators from the Earth Cloud Realm will also hunt you down, and they will also destroy the misty manor! Ugh!”

After he said that, Huang Ba’s face became bright red as Meng Xianzi strangled his neck even tighter, and she then said to him. “Usually, I would have instantly killed everyone who dared to threaten me, but you were lucky because someone wanted you alive, so I couldn’t kill you now. However, you will definitely experience hell on earth if you fall into his hands, especially after what you guys did to his six friends.”

Before he could taunt her again, Meng Xianzi had already slammed Huang Ba’s head hard against the wall, causing him to fall unconscious, and she immediately took him into her flying artifact.
