"Here, let's go after you finish eating."
Two dry steamed buns were thrown at her. Mo Tiange looked up and caught them.
They were in a desolate suburb. It had been a day since they left Liancheng City. On the road, they encountered two cultivators fighting. Li Yushan was so frightened that he hurriedly ordered the coachman to hurry up. After half a day passed and no one was chasing them, he finally felt relieved.
The steamed buns were dry. Mo Tiange couldn't swallow them after taking two bites. She looked up and saw that although Li Yushan was also eating a dry steamed bun, he also had roast chicken, beef, and other cooked food.
Li Yushan noticed her gaze and picked up a piece of chicken. "Do you want to eat?"
Mo Tiange shook her head and said, "I want to drink water."
This was the first time she spoke in the past few days.
Li Yushan was surprised and annoyed at the same time.
He didn't believe such a big child wouldn't want to eat delicious food. She must not want to beg him.
This also meant that although this little girl was young, she was very stubborn. It would be difficult to make her obedient.
When he regained his senses, he saw that Mo Tiange didn't seem to want to give him water. She just sat there and slowly gnawed on the dry steamed bun.
Although he was annoyed, he didn't really want her to die of thirst. He took out a water bag from his bag and threw it to her. "This is yours. If you finish it, remember to bring water with you in the future."
Mo Tiange took it and answered in a low voice.
After a while, the coachman who was feeding the horses came and respectfully asked Li Yushan, "Master Immortal, where will we stay tonight?"
Li Yushan only raised his eyes. "We'll continue our journey tonight and rest at dawn."
"This …" The coachman was obviously unwilling, but he didn't dare to offend him. He bowed and said, "Master Immortal, it's late and I can't see. It's not easy to hurry."
This time, Li Yushan didn't even look at him. He just threw him a white stone. "Put it away. It can shine."
The coachman nodded repeatedly.
Mo Tiange looked up. Although she was curious, she didn't say anything.
The cultivation world was still a strange world to her, so she was curious about everything.
"Okay, let's go."
After eating, Li Yushan clapped his hands and grabbed Mo Tiange to return to the carriage. He muttered, "Unfortunately, I don't know Light Body Technique. Otherwise, I wouldn't need a carriage."
Mo Tiange had a rough understanding of what Light Body Technique was.
It was a type of spell that allowed one to fly and float in the air. The two cultivators who were fighting with each other on the way were using this spell.
However, only those who reached the fifth layer of the Aura Refining realm could practice it, so Li Yushan could only go to Kunwu with the help of secular tools.
Just as he was about to set off, a green light suddenly flashed through the air, carrying with it a dense aura and might.
Li Yushan suddenly got out of the carriage and gazed at the green light that flashed by. For a while, he was speechless. It wasn't until the light disappeared on the horizon that he let out a sigh of relief. "He's actually a Foundation Building cultivator. Why did he come to the secular world …" After muttering to himself for a long time, he finally didn't dare to look for another opportunity to take advantage of him. After all, for low-level cultivators like them, a Foundation Building cultivator was like a celestial being.
This secular carriage carrying two low-level Aura Refining cultivators staggered on the road. The Foundation Building cultivator who flashed by simply didn't pay any attention to these low-level cultivators. Not long after, he arrived at Liancheng. After asking for directions, he went straight to the small village in the direction of Feiyun Town.
Mo Tiange didn't know that two days after she disappeared, a cultivator actually came to the Mo Family's Village where she lived for ten years.
In the Mo family's ancestral house, the young masters of the Mo family gathered in the hall, which was a rare occurrence. Patriarch Mo, who was sitting in the main seat, was frowning and smoking a pipe.
After a long time, the Patriarch finally put down his pipe and asked the Eldest Young Master, "Eldest, what do you think?"
The Eldest Young Master also frowned and asked with some uncertainty, "Father, should we still look for her?"
Right after he said that, someone on the side snorted indifferently. "How?
She's been abducted for two days. Even if we know she was abducted, where are we going to look for her?
Besides, who's going to look for her? "
This time, even the Eldest Young Master didn't say anything.
On the day Mo Tiange was abducted, Tianqiao saw that Mo Tiange still hadn't returned at night, so she anxiously told her father about Mo Tiange going to town.
It wasn't good to look for Mo Tiange in the middle of the night, and when there was still no news the next day, Patriarch Mo had no choice but to ask his eldest son to go to town and ask around.
In the end, when he asked around, he only learned that a girl was taken away by a man at a tea stall at the town gate yesterday. According to the man's description, the girl looked like Mo Tiange. As for where she went, nobody knew.
Now that it was confirmed that the child was abducted, Patriarch Mo called his sons over to discuss what to do about this matter.
Although they weren't close to this child, she was still their family, so they couldn't just ignore her.
However, the young masters all thought that if they wanted to look for her, first, they simply didn't know where the child was taken. Second, it was spring plowing, so whoever went to look for her would lose a lot of labor, which would reduce their harvest.
Therefore, although they weren't opposed to looking for her, they didn't want to do it themselves.
The first part of his words made sense.
After abducting a child, the kidnapper would naturally go somewhere else immediately. How could it be that easy to find her?
Patriarch Mo also understood that this wasn't the first time a child was abducted in the village. Every time they looked for her, they couldn't find her.
But if they didn't look for her, it wouldn't be reasonable. In any case, she was his granddaughter. Moreover, the son-in-law they recruited back then wasn't a simple person. If he came back one day, how could they explain it to him?
But if they wanted to look for her, who should they send to look for her?
With his brows wrinkled, the patriarch's gaze swept back and forth between his sons.
As soon as the young masters saw the patriarch's gaze falling on them, they lowered their heads for fear that their names would be called.
Before the patriarch could make a decision, Uncle He ran in from outside. "Master, there … there's a guest."
Everyone in the room didn't have time to ask because they already saw someone stride into the hall.
The person was a young man in his early twenties. He wore a blue robe and a white coat and carried a long sword on his back. Even without taking a closer look, he already emitted a threatening aura.
Seeing the young man carrying a sword, the patriarch hastily stood up. "May I ask this young master …"
Before he could finish speaking, the young man already said, "Are you the village head?"
Patriarch Mo promptly nodded. Seeing the young man's exquisite clothes and long sword on his back, he knew he must be an expert swordsman. He asked respectfully, "May I know who you are?"
The young man didn't answer. Instead, he continued to ask, "Let me ask you. Do you have a daughter who recruited a son-in-law with the surname Ye?"
When this question was asked, not only the patriarch, but everyone in the hall also looked bewildered.
They naturally knew who the young man was talking about, but their brother-in-law had been gone for ten years without any news. What did he have to do with the young man in front of them?
The patriarch quickly regained his composure and answered, "Yes, but my son-in-law went out ten years ago and hasn't come back since."
After he finished speaking, he felt a bit restless. He knew that son-in-law had some background, so he was afraid the young man in front of him was here to seek revenge.
Unexpectedly, the young man in front of him smiled and cupped his hands towards the patriarch.
Ever since he came in, not only did he not salute the people in the hall, but he also didn't greet them. However, they didn't think he was impolite. They only felt that he wasn't an ordinary person.
Now that he cupped his hands, the patriarch felt a bit relieved. It seemed he wasn't here to seek revenge.
The young man said, "Village Head Mo, my surname is also Ye. I was entrusted by your son-in-law to pick up his wife and daughter. May I know where they are?"
Hearing this, the patriarch was a bit scared. He was just thinking about how it would be hard to explain his lost granddaughter to her father when he returned. Why did someone suddenly come to ask for them?
After pondering for a while, the patriarch asked cautiously, "So it's Young Master Ye. May I know where my son-in-law is now?
Why didn't he come back with them? "
The young man's smile disappeared. He sighed and said, "Village Head Mo, I'll tell you the truth. Senior Ye has already passed away.
My martial uncle and Senior Ye were friends who went through thick and thin together. Before Senior Ye died, he entrusted my martial uncle to take his wife and daughter and give them to his brother.
I came here on my martial uncle's orders. "
This news caused everyone in the hall to be astonished.
Senior Ye had been gone for ten years and hadn't come back. They had long suspected that he might have met with an accident. Now that they knew he was dead, they were mentally prepared.
However, this young man said he came to pick up people and even wanted to take them away, which made them feel strange.
The patriarch also felt the same. He asked, "Young Master Ye, my son-in-law married into your family, so my daughter and granddaughter are naturally members of the Mo family. Why did he mention taking them away?"
The young man smiled again. This time, there was a hint of pride in his smile. "Stay here?
Village Head Mo, could it be that you don't know your son-in-law isn't a mortal? "
This news surprised everyone even more.
The young masters of the Mo family were shocked. One of them couldn't help but ask, "If he's not a mortal, then what is he?"
"Of course he's an immortal." The young man glanced at him. "Don't tell me you don't know that Senior Ye has the Power of Immortality?"
Everyone shook their heads.
The young man raised his hand, and a ball of flame suddenly appeared in his hand. He then swung it, and the sword on his back suddenly flew out and flicked the ball of flame. The flame was extinguished, and the sword flew back into its scabbard.
The young man said, "Do you believe me?"
There were many legends about immortals in the secular world. Now that they saw this kind of Power of Immortality with their own eyes, how could they not believe it?
The patriarch had long felt that his son-in-law wasn't ordinary, so how could he not believe him?
Suddenly, he remembered that his granddaughter was kidnapped. If this young master was really an immortal, wouldn't it be very easy to find her?
With this thought in mind, the patriarch hastily said, "Young Master Ye, we believe you.
It's just that my daughter was unlucky. She died of a serious illness three years ago, and my granddaughter was kidnapped by kidnappers two days ago.
You know the Power of Immortality, so please save her! "
The young man was shocked. He then sighed and said, "When Senior Ye entrusted her to me, he was also worried that Madam Ye had already passed away.
Forget it. Tell me, what's the matter with your granddaughter? "
Patriarch Mo immediately told him what his son had found out. When he was done, he asked, "Young Master, you see …"
The young man just waved his hand and said, "I'll go first." Without saying much, he turned around and left, leaving behind a room full of bewildered people.
