Chereads / I Fell for My Cultivation Bestie's Husband / Chapter 81 - Chapter 27 Encounter_3

Chapter 81 - Chapter 27 Encounter_3

Just look at that young master's arrogant and overbearing demeanor, and the behavior of those two servants! How could they possibly be reasonable to deal with?

If we really fall into their hands, if we don't die, we'll be skinned alive!

However, it's not Yanyan's fault. The world Yanyan lives in is quite peaceful, and the Official Government is very supportive. Whenever there is a dispute between people, there is always a place to appeal for justice. Even if one encounters the powerful and influential, there might be cases of bullying or oppression, but it never comes to kidnapping people on the street and torturing them in their mansions!

In their world, however, the law of the jungle is a common occurrence. Not to mention ordinary people dare not intervene, even the Official Government dares not ask questions. And in this case, aren't they the ones without justification?

The carriage was filthy to begin with, and now even eighteen mouths wouldn't be able to explain it away. If there is anyone to blame, it's oneself for being too greedy!

Gu Shi Yi inwardly complained while urging the old horse to hurry along. The group chasing them reached the carriage and paused for a moment to take a careful look at the carriage, finally confirming,

"Young Master, it's the carriage of our second young mistress!"

Their family's masters have rules about how they travel. The second young mistress is of Legitimate Birth, and her carriage is more impressive than those of the other mistresses. These servants could naturally recognize it after taking a few more glances!

The man's face was as grim as the still water as he wielded his whip,

"Chase them!"

Earlier, he was in Xuancheng City with his master, searching for both his sister and the uncle who stole the sect's treasure, but to no avail. He was just growing anxious when his master received a message from a friend of the Zhong Family in Twin Sages City about the Eldest Miss Yin of the Yin Family seeking a husband,

"Tiantian, this Eldest Miss Yin of the Yin Family possesses the rare Water Spirit Root and has excellent Great Cultivation talent. If you can marry her, you will be part of the Heavenly Unity Sect in the future, and Twin Sages City will be a great support for you!"

Zhang Zhenyue really put a lot of thought into his disciple's future, but Pu Yuntian was somewhat reluctant. Born into a respectable background, and with handsome looks, he was always successful with women. With his Heavenly Spiritual Root talent, he believed that once he joined the Heavenly Unity Sect, his Cultivation would advance rapidly. In the future, as a Great Cultivator, he could have any woman he wanted. Why tie himself down so early?

However, his master was very persistent about this,

"Great Cultivation Sects value lineage and strength even more than our secular sects. Although you have a decent background in the secular world, it's negligible in the realm of Great Cultivation. Having a Great Cultivation Family as a powerful backing, it could take your achievements to an even higher level!"

Though he wasn't convinced, Pu Yuntian dared not defy his master and begrudgingly set out on the road. Naturally, with his mind troubled, he had not anticipated the surprises that awaited him in Twin Sages City, least of all encountering his sister's carriage.

Pu Yanlan and Pu Yuntian were siblings born to the same mother. Yanlan was extremely beautiful and beloved by their parents. Last year, when their maternal grandmother fell gravely ill, Yanlan went back to Du City in her mother's stead to attend to her. But to their horror, the carriage had gone missing upon leaving Xuancheng City. The maternal family reported the incident to the officials, and both the local Official Government and the maternal family had dispatched people to search for a long time to no avail—neither alive nor dead. If it weren't for the Life-bound Jade Tablet made by a highly skilled person, whose luster had dimmed but had not broken, they might have concluded that Yanlan was no longer of this world.

Madam Pu wept daily, and upon seeing this, Mr. Pu wrote to their eldest son, Pu Yuntian, who was studying esoteric teachings with the national master. Pu Yuntian was shocked by the news, and after discussing it with Zhang Zhenyue, he wanted to request leave from his master to return home. At that time, Zhang Zhenyue had also sensed the anomaly with the sect's treasure. Since everything was occurring near Xuancheng City, they decided to go there together in search of clues.

Thus, Pu Yuntian arrived in Xuancheng City. Now in Twin Sages City, he had found his sister's carriage. In a situation where no leads were to be found, this was the only clue. And the carriage driver was acting sneaky. When he sent two servants to ask questions, the driver immediately sped away with the carriage. If this wasn't a sign of a guilty conscience, what was?

Concerned for his sister's whereabouts, how could Pu Yuntian not try everything in his power to capture this person?

"Chase them! Even if they run to the ends of the earth, I must catch that lad!"

Pu Yuntian, riding his horse, chased vigorously. Gu Shi Yi, seeing how determined he was in pursuit, grew even more frightened and had no choice but to escape for his life. Thus, in a game of cat and mouse, they made their way through the pathways, heading towards a small town outside of Twin Sages City.
