At that moment.
The air twisted as a thick stick materialized out of nowhere, striking Ao Sheng, who was in full flight, on the head.
A muffled grunt ensued, and the handsome Ao Sheng fell to the ground in less than three seconds.
Under Ao Yuan's watchful eyes, two blurry figures leapt out of a spatial rift, bagged their elder brother in a sack, and sped away.
Ao Yuan: !!!
The two kidnappers, with their profound cultivation, vanished in an instant.
...
Deep in a mountain.
"Quick, put him down," instructed the elder in the black robe.
The elder in the white robe dumped the sack on the ground and dragged Ao Sheng out:
"How should we deal with him?"
"After obtaining the Nine Heavens Map, leave him here unharmed," the black-robed elder stated calmly. "We're here for the item. Stealing a calligraphy piece can resolve karma, but killing a crown prince brings great enmity."
