Chapter 99: The man is gone, Zong Fei is nowhere to be found?
For Chu Feng, finding the Forgetful Love Sect was no easy task, especially since he had been in Julu City. Originally, he had intended to inquire about the situation through the higher-ups at the Pill Pavilion, but before he could, he had a falling out with the Pill Pavilion.
For Wen Zhenyuan and others, ordinary sects are not worth their attention. Any disciple of theirs could sweep through a large area. The Sword Sect's seclusion here is for other reasons, and they don't need to deal with other sects.
Therefore, Wen Zhenyuan and other high-ranking members of the Sword Sect had no idea what the Forgetful Love Sect was.
Fortunately, the Sword Sect had many branches and countless disciples, so once Wen Zhenyuan gave an order, the message was sent back.
The seventh-rank sect, the Forget-Love Sect, is located in Yunzhou County. The Sword Sect looks down on other sects, but its branch sects have to deal with many sects, so they naturally have some understanding of them.
Early the next morning, Wen Zhenyuan took Chu Feng, Wen Mengting, Xiao Hui and Xiao Min to the Wangqing Sect's headquarters in Yunzhou County, in the Tianqing Mountains.
Wen Zhenyuan possessed a spirit-grade flying device, and since he used high-grade spirit stones to power it, he arrived at the Forgetful Love Sect in no time.
However, when they arrived at the destination, everyone was taken aback!
Where is the Forgetful Sect now? The mountains have been moved, the spiritual veins have been drained, and there's nothing left on the ground except for huge craters!
What Azure Sky Mountains? This place should be called the Abyss!
What's going on? Chu Feng was so angry he felt like vomiting blood!
What happened to the Forgetful Sect? How is Su Xiaoxiao now? Is she in danger? Where can I find her now?
"Brother Chu, don't worry. There are many people in our Sword Sect. We'll have everyone search together, and we'll definitely find Sister Su," Wen Mengting comforted Chu Feng when she saw his pale face.
Wen Zhenyuan searched the surrounding area again and found traces of the teleportation array being activated, but everything had been erased and there was no way to find out anything.
Was the Forgetful Sect wiped out? Or did they move away on their own for some other reason?
No way to know.
"Xiao Meng, I'm fine." Chu Feng himself was a formation master, so he naturally noticed the traces of a teleportation array. However, the person who destroyed this place was too powerful and left no useful clues.
Even if Chu Feng recovered to the Emperor Realm, he wouldn't be able to see anything. Besides, even Wen Zhenyuan, with his strength, couldn't see anything wrong.
Wen Zhenyuan said, "Little Chu, I'll send you to the branch sect. I've already sent messages to all the branch sects, telling them to search carefully. As long as the Forgetful Sect is still in the Northern Region, we'll be able to find it."
The group once again boarded a flying magical artifact and headed to Jade Moon City, only to find that their trip had come up empty-handed.
Before they even reached the gates of Yuyue City, Wen Zhenyuan left the four of them on the official road and departed on his own.
Chu Feng estimated that Wen Zhenyuan and the others were living in seclusion, not even bothering with the branch sects, probably to conceal their whereabouts. The specifics would only be known later.
Jade Moon City was a bit larger than Giant Deer City, and it cost one hundred low-grade spirit stones to enter, but the crowd didn't care at all.
The Sword Sect has a branch in Jade Moon City with several properties. They came here to investigate.
Regardless of the sect, the first priority for cultivation is naturally resources; one cannot simply sit around and consume all one's reserves.
The resources and personnel needed by the main branch are the responsibility of the branch branches.
"Miss, son-in-law, the restaurant not far away is one of the branch's properties." When leaving, Wen Zhenyuan told Xiao Hui and Xiao Min about the branch.
These trivial matters were handled by his subordinates; it was impossible for Wen Mengting and Chu Feng to take the lead. In his mind, the two of them were just out to connect and enjoy the scenery.
Wen Mengting said, "Then let's go to the restaurant first."
"What right do you have to hit people?" Before the four even entered the restaurant, they heard an angry voice coming from inside.
"Your monster meat made my stomach sick. Beating you up is too lenient a punishment. You won't compensate me. I'll smash up your lousy restaurant today!"
The four went inside and saw a Qi Refining stage servant lying on the ground with his right cheek swollen and his teeth knocked out.
"Where is the restaurant manager?" Xiao Hui came out and asked coldly.
The man who hit her was a burly man at the ninth level of Qi Refining. Xiao Hui ignored him completely, wanting to find out the whole story first. Even if a little ant could fly, it couldn't escape her grasp.
"Who are you?" the waiter quickly scrambled to his feet and asked. In the past few days, several people had come to the restaurant to cause trouble, and he had lost a lot of spirit stones. Were these people also here to cause trouble? If so, he would probably have to go somewhere else.
I can't take being beaten every day!
"See for yourself." Xiao Hui casually took out a token and handed it to the servant.
Upon seeing the token, the servant was overjoyed and quickly replied, "Sir, the manager has been injured, so I am the only one serving guests on the first floor."
The waiter had worked at the restaurant for several years, so he naturally recognized this kind of token.
This is the main sect's token. Now that the main sect has sent someone, there's nothing to be afraid of.
Chu Feng asked in surprise, "Such a big restaurant, and you're the only one serving customers on the entire floor?"
The servant said with a bitter face, "For the past few days, people have come to cause trouble. The manager was also injured, and everyone else left out of fear. Now, besides me, only the head chef and a few helpers are still here..."
"Damn it, are you going to compensate me or not? If you don't compensate me with spirit stones, I'll just tear down the restaurant!" The big man was furious when he saw that this kid had a powerful backer and was ignoring him.
"Trash, you're asking for it!" Xiao Hui didn't even look at him before slapping him across the face.
"Wait a minute!" Chu Feng quickly stopped him.
Chu Feng had already discovered that this person was already poisoned and didn't need to be beaten. He would die from the poison soon. If Xiao Hui beat this person to death, wouldn't she be taking the blame for someone else?
Chu Feng couldn't see through Xiao Hui's cultivation level at all. Even if he made a move, he couldn't stop her. With a "bang", the big man was turned into a meat pie!
"Oh dear, son-in-law, you're too late. It's all my fault for being too quick," Xiao Hui said with a smile.
Why wait for an ant? Just swat it!
Besides, I got kicked by the young lady yesterday because of you, and my butt hurts. I'm not going to listen to you!
Chu Feng said with a wry smile, "Xiao Hui, this person has already been poisoned. There's no need to hit him; he'll die from the poison soon. If you kill him now, how will you explain it?"
"Murder at the restaurant! Murder at the restaurant! Help! My husband has been killed at the restaurant! My dear husband, why are you so unlucky..."
Just then, a village woman dressed in ordinary clothes ran in, lay on the ground, and cried loudly.
Chu Feng and the others exchanged bewildered glances. They had arrived incredibly quickly! Clearly, this was all pre-arranged! Even if Xiao Hui hadn't intervened, this person would likely have died very soon!
Xiao Hui curled her lip and sneered, "So what? No matter how many ants there are, you can still swat them with one slap."
Chu Feng simply shook his head.
No matter how powerful you are, can you be unreasonable? If someone sends some ordinary people to break in, are you going to slaughter them all?
It was clearly a trap, so why would anyone jump into it?
