Chapter 10: Xiao Hui Gets Captured

Qin Long was slapped to the ground by Wu Tian, leaving his attendants bewildered. In their eyes, Wu Tian was a waste with severed meridians and shattered dantian, incapable of cultivation. Yet, he had just slapped their master away. It seemed like a joke.

Qin Long, holding his swollen face in pain, stood up with disbelief, gazing at Wu Tian. At this moment, he was utterly confused.

"Why... Why did you?! How could you have... cultivation!" Qin Long looked at Wu Tian with incredulity.

During this period, he had been seeking a breakthrough and had just reached the seventh-level martial artist. Praised by the elders of the sect, he now found himself slapped away by someone they considered a waste. He couldn't even see Wu Tian's movements clearly.

"No reason. Because in my eyes, you are the waste!" Wu Tian pointed at Qin Long, each word pronounced deliberately.

Qin Long became furious, drew his sword, and charged at Wu Tian, shouting, "Don't think you're a master just because you succeeded in a sneak attack. You are still a was..."

Smack!

Qin Long's words were cut off by a crisp slap, this time on the other side of his face, and the rotation was even more pronounced, from 720 to 1080 degrees.

Boom! Qin Long's body heavily fell to the ground, both of his faces now swollen like steamed buns.

"Young Master!" Qin Long's two attendants finally snapped out of their shock.

"You dare to harm our young master, seeking death!" The attendants drew their swords and charged at Wu Tian.

Wu Tian moved swiftly, and with a swing of his right hand, slapped both attendants. Like Qin Long, they were sent flying and couldn't stand up for a while.

Qin Long couldn't believe his eyes. His two attendants, who had higher cultivation than him, both at the eighth level, were slapped away by Wu Tian. Could it be that Wu Tian's cultivation had reached the martial master level?

Holding his painfully swollen cheeks, Qin Long, filled with anger, knew he wasn't Wu Tian's match. He planned to slip away quietly.

"Young Master Qin, where do you think you're going?" Wu Tian's voice appeared behind Qin Long as he turned.

Qin Long turned around, forcing a wry smile. "Aren't you heading north? I won't disturb you."

"When I told you to leave earlier, you didn't. Now I didn't say you could leave."

"Well... that..."

Suddenly, Wu Tian glared and fiercely kicked Qin Long's knee.

Bang! Qin Long's body involuntarily knelt down, and his knees hit the ground hard.

"Ah!" Qin Long screamed in agony. This almost shattered his knees, and immense anger surged within him, wishing to tear Wu Tian apart.

"Now you can leave. Remember, leave by rolling! And I warn you, don't bother me again, or I'll directly kill you!" Wu Tian warned.

Qin Long could only grit his teeth and follow Wu Tian's instructions, rolling a few steps before feeling that Wu Tian couldn't catch up. He quickly stood up and fled in embarrassment.

"Wu Tian, I'll remember this revenge today. I will make you pay tenfold!" Qin Long, running away in embarrassment, thought with intense hatred.

Ignoring Qin Long, Wu Tian continued toward the north. Through the Mind Pearl, he quickly found the house where Xiao Hui might be staying—a place she likely rented.

"Xiao Hui, the young master has come to pick you up!" Wu Tian pushed open the door and shouted.

However, there was no response. The house wasn't large, just a living room and a small room, and there was no one inside.

"The Mind Pearl is right here, but why isn't Xiao Hui here?" Wu Tian frowned.

At this moment, a middle-aged woman passing by caught Wu Tian's attention. He quickly approached and asked, "Auntie, may I ask if a girl lives in this house?"

"Yes, yes, she moved in just a month or two ago. But early this morning, she was taken away by someone. Alas... such a pretty girl, taken away, probably won't have a good life," the middle-aged woman sighed.

Wu Tian's heart tightened. Continuing to ask, he said, "Auntie, do you know who took her away?"

The middle-aged woman thought for a moment and said, "They were arguing loudly at that time. A young man seemed to be laughing and talking about something related to Qitian Sect's Wang Xiaoshi. I didn't dare get too close, so I didn't hear it clearly."

Wu Tian's expression changed suddenly. According to his memory, Wang Xiaoshi was Qin Long's senior brother, both disciples of the same master. However, Wang Xiaoshi was more intelligent, now a prominent figure among Qitian Sect's younger generation.

"Auntie, was that young man fair-skinned and handsome?"

"Anyway, he looked like a young master."

"As expected, it's Wang Xiaoshi! Thank you, Auntie!"

After expressing his gratitude to the middle-aged woman, Wu Tian quickly left. Filled with anger, Wang Xiaoshi, just like Qin Long, wasn't a good character. Perhaps Xiao Hui wouldn't have a good fate in his hands. Wu Tian had to find Xiao Hui immediately; otherwise, he didn't know what Wang Xiaoshi would do to her.

"Wang Xiaoshi, you scoundrel! I will definitely kill you!"

...

As Wu Tian hurried toward Qitian Sect, Qin Long returned to the sect, feeling quite unhappy. He happened to see Wang Xiaoshi bringing Xiao Hui back to the sect.

"Senior Brother, isn't this the servant girl by Wu Tian's side? How did you find her?" Qin Long pointed at Xiao Hui, bound by Wang Xiaoshi.

"I have my own methods. Hehe, this girl is quite lovely. Since following Wu Tian is a waste, it's better to bring her back for our enjoyment!" Wang Xiaoshi said with a sly smile.

"Senior Brother, your move is indeed brilliant! It's said that Wu Tian cares the most about this servant girl. If we play with his maid, that waste will surely be infuriated!" Qin Long felt a deep sense of satisfaction, thinking that he could finally retaliate against Wu Tian.

Bound and frightened, Xiao Hui shook her head. Her tears were on the verge of flowing, praying silently for help.
