The two who had spoken were two young men, both inner disciples of the Zodiac Palace. Judging from the direction they were walking, they had probably just left the Zodiac Palace.
Wutian's eyes flickered. He hadn't expected that Ji Wuhui would target You Hanyun and the other two.
He absolutely didn't believe that Ji Wuhui had taken a fancy to the three girls' talents. He definitely had other motives.
At the same time, Su Ying also frowned when she heard these words. She muttered in her heart, Why would Ji Wuhui take a fancy to You Hanyun and Miao Shanshan?
Just as the two were about to walk past her, Su Ying suddenly stepped forward and blocked their path. The two inner disciples immediately frowned.
However, when they saw Su Ying's appearance, a trace of amazement flitted across their eyes, and their frowns quickly smoothed out.
One of them bowed slightly in a gentlemanly manner and said with a smile, "Miss, is there anything we can do for you?"
Su Ying pursed her lips and directly took out her identity badge.
"What, she's actually an inner disciple of the Mystic Palace!"
Seeing this, the two turned pale with fright. They hurriedly stopped smiling and dispelled their thoughts, bowing respectfully.
Su Ying put away the badge and said indifferently, "Tell me about You Hanyun and the other two."
"Why is she inquiring about the three of them?"
Wutian mumbled, deeply puzzled.
One of them said respectfully, "Milord, not long ago, You Hanyun and the other two were taken a fancy to by the vice Lord Of The Palace, Lord Ji, and have already been brought to the underground palace."
Su Ying's eyebrow furrowed.
Wutian's heart sank to the bottom.
It seemed that Ji Wuhui had come here as soon as he left West Underworld City.
Su Ying asked again, "Did Lord Ji say why he brought them to the underground palace?"
That person shook his head and said, "We don't know about that, but we can imagine that if Lord Ji takes a fancy to them, they will definitely soar in the future."
"A meteoric rise?"
Su Ying had a look of disdain on her face. She waved her hand at them and said, "You can leave now."
After the two of them left, Wutian asked doubtfully, "Su Ying, could it be that you know You Hanyun and the other two?"
Su Ying said, "To tell you the truth, they are friends of some of my old friends. I came to the Zodiac Palace this time to visit them, but I didn't expect them to fall into Ji Wuhui's hands."
"Old friend? Are you talking about me, Di Tian, Han Tian? "
Wutian silently cursed.
After thinking for a while, Su Ying said, "Li Buluan, I'm going to the Zodiac Palace to ask about the situation. If you …"
Before she could finish, Wutian smiled and said, "I'm also a little curious."
After taking a deep look at Wutian, Su Ying did not say anything more. She stepped into the main hall and led Wutian deeper into the palace.
Along the way, Wutian looked around with curiosity in his eyes, but this was just an act.
In fact, he was already burning with anxiety in his heart!
However, he knew that this matter could not be rushed. Before going to Xiyu City, he had to figure out why Ji Wuhui took You Hanyun and the others away so that he could think of countermeasures in advance.
Soon, the two of them passed through the portal and arrived in the familiar Zodiac Palace.
Wutian immediately released his Divine Sense to search for the Gold-Biter Rats.
However, he searched the entire Zodiac Palace but did not see any trace of the Gold-Biter Rats, nor did he sense their aura.
Wutian's eyes darkened slightly.
Previously, when he learned that You Hanyun had been taken away by Ji Wuhui, he secretly checked his Sea of Consciousness and found that the wisp of soul of the Gold-Biter Rats was still there.
In other words, the Gold-Biter Rats were still alive.
But where did it go now?
Had it also been taken away by Ji Wuhui?
Or … had it escaped outside?
However, at the top of Mount Ninety-Nine, he saw the three giants of the Mystic Palace.
Su Ying naturally noticed it too. She called out to Wutian and teleported away, breaking through the sky.
"Who dares to trespass into the Zodiac Palace!"
The two of them did not deliberately hide their aura and were discovered by the three giants from afar. The law-enforcement commander immediately let out a loud roar.
"I'm Su Ying. Uncles, don't be nervous."
Su Ying replied.
Swish!
As soon as she finished speaking, the two of them landed in front of the three giants.
"So it's you, girl."
The law-enforcement commander chuckled.
Then, he glanced at Wutian and narrowed his eyes. Deep wariness crept onto his face.
The Lord Of The Palace and the Vice Lord Of The Palace's pupils also shrank.
The pressure that the burly man in front of them gave them was too strong, and they even had the urge to kneel down and worship him.
The law-enforcement commander asked, "Girl, who is this?"
Su Ying smiled faintly. "He's my friend and also a friend of Heavenly Soldier Elder Yu."
"Elder Yu's friend?"
Hearing this, the three of them were shocked. They immediately cupped their hands and said, "Greetings, sir."
"Mm."
Wutian nodded coldly.
Su Ying asked, "Uncles, you've all watched me grow up, so I won't beat around the bush. I'm here this time to ask about You Hanyun and the other two. Please tell me the truth."
The three of them looked at each other. The law-enforcement commander frowned and said, "Why are you asking about them?"
"Sigh, Miao Shanshan and You Hanyun were friends of Gu Yi and the other two after all. Gu Yi also saved my life. Although they're all dead now, I still owe them a debt of gratitude. So, I want to see if there's anything I can do to help."
Su Ying sighed with a regretful expression.
At the mention of Gu Yi and the other two, the three giants couldn't help but sigh.
The three of them were very important to them. Originally, they thought that after going to the Mystic Palace, they would be able to unleash their potential better. Who would have thought that they would die prematurely in just over a decade? The heavens were truly jealous of geniuses!
The vice Lord Of The Palace sighed softly and said, "Girl, to be honest, we also don't want You Hanyun and the others to be taken away by Ji Wuhui."
The Lord Of The Palace nodded and said, "That's right. When Gu Yi left the Zodiac Palace, he also gave us a lot of favors. However, we can't do anything about it. In front of Ji Wuhui, our words carry no weight. We don't dare to go against his wishes."
Looking at the three's expressions, Wutian pretended to be confused and asked, "Are you talking about Gu Yi, the one who perished together with Ji Baoyun?"
"That's him," Su Ying said.
Wutian nodded and said, "Although I've never seen Gu Yi in person, I've heard of his deeds. If I remember correctly, he seems to be the envoy of Fengmen City's Heavenly Soldiers. Could it be that the Heavenly Soldiers didn't do anything when something happened to his friends?"
The Lord Of The Palace said, "If Gu Yi didn't die, the Heavenly Soldiers naturally wouldn't stand by and do nothing. However, now that Gu Yi is dead, why would she meddle in other people's business and seek trouble for herself?"
"Haha, people nowadays are really realistic."
Wutian sneered.
The Lord Of The Palace said, "We don't deny this point. However, the Heavenly Soldiers also have their own difficulties. After all, Ji Wuhui's backer is extraordinarily powerful. Unless they have no other choice, who would dare to completely fall out with him?"
Wutian asked, "Then why did Ji Wuhui take the three of them away?"
The Lord Of The Palace said, "Ji Wuhui said that he was interested in their talents, but anyone could tell that this was just an excuse."
"Why?"
Wutian pretended to be puzzled.
Su Ying's face was full of confusion.
The Lord Of The Palace said, "Because among the three of them, apart from Liu Lili who has a bit of talent, You Hanyun and Miao Shanshan are basically useless. As the Vice Lord Of The Palace, how could Ji Wuhui not see this? Furthermore, he still said this. If there isn't something else, then what is? "
Su Ying nodded and fell into deep thought.
"Looks like the three of them also don't know why Ji Wuhui took You Hanyun and the others away. Wait, they definitely know where the Gold-Biter Rats went, but how should I ask?"
Wutian thought.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he asked, "Are You Hanyun and the others very important to Gu Yi and the others?"
The Lord Of The Palace said, "I'm not sure about Liu Lili and Miao Shanshan, but Gu Yi seems to value You Hanyun very much. Otherwise, he wouldn't have specially arranged for a Ferocious Beast to guard her, and he wouldn't have saved her time and time again."
"What Ferocious Beast?"
Wutian was surprised.
The Lord Of The Palace said, "A Ferocious Beast whose strength isn't inferior to mine, but it was also taken away by Ji Wuhui."
Hearing this, a cold killing intent flashed in the depths of Wutian's eyes.
Knowing the whereabouts of the Gold-Biter Rats, there was no need to stay any longer. Wutian looked at Su Ying and said, "I suddenly remembered that I still have something to take care of, so I'll take my leave first."
Su Ying regained her senses and smiled, "Since it's like that, I won't be sending you off."
Wutian smiled, cupped his hands towards the three big shots, and turned to leave.
Looking at Wutian's back, the Vice Lord Of The Palace asked puzzledly, "Lass, what's the identity of this person? Why do you seem to be somewhat afraid of him? "
"I also don't know, but I can be sure that he definitely has a great background."
Su Ying shook her head, and a strange light flashed past her beautiful eyes.
…
After walking out of the Zodiac Palace, Wutian headed towards the Heavenly Gate Plaza without stopping.
He could ignore Liu Lili and Miao Shanshan, but he could not ignore You Hanyun.
"Ji Wuhui, don't think that I won't dare to touch you just because you have Cheng Yu backing you. Even if I don't have the strength to kill you now, I can still destroy your Ji Family's nest!"
After activating the portal, Wutian muttered and took a step forward, quickly disappearing.
Xiyu City.
Wutian walked out of the portal and scanned the unfamiliar city, his eyes flickering with a cold light.
He had not told this matter to Di Tian because he had only come to Xiyu City to investigate the situation.
Therefore, it would be more convenient for him to come alone.
Of course, it would be best if he could take the opportunity to save a few people.
Walking into the Heavenly Gate Plaza, Wutian stopped in front of a stall. He looked at the black-clothed youth and asked, "Brother, may I ask, how do I get to the Ji Family?"
"Ji Family?"
The youth was only thirteen or fourteen years old. His body was thin, and his face was dirty. He looked very weak.
Hearing this, the youth was slightly stunned and asked puzzledly, "Why are you asking this?"
Wutian smiled and said, "I am going to the Ji Family to find an old acquaintance, but this is my first time in Xiyu City. I am unfamiliar with the people and the place, so …"
"You don't need to say it, I understand."
The black-clothed youth waved his hand, revealing a mouthful of white teeth and smiled mischievously, "As long as you buy everything I have here, I will tell you."
"Uh!"
Wutian was stunned. He immediately lowered his head and looked at the items on the stall. His expression immediately became incomparably strange.
