Mo Wen looked at Wang Qinghan in shock. These people had actually come specifically for her. He had some understanding of the Ghost Lair. Ordinary people would not be able to attract their attention at all.
To be able to attract so many people from the Ghost Lair, Wang Qinghan most likely had an extraordinary identity.
The people from the Ghost Lair were clearly prepared to capture Wang Qinghan alive. They did not attack immediately but slowly surrounded her, blocking the surroundings tightly. It was as though they were afraid that Wang Qinghan would run away.
"Little Tang, you take him and retreat first. I will bring up the rear," Wang Qinghan said with a serious expression.
The lowest cultivation of the mysterious men in black before her was in the Embryonic Breathing Realm. There was even a pinnacle of the Embryonic Breathing Realm strong practitioner among them.
Such a group of frightening ancient martial art practitioners had actually come to capture her. Even she felt that it was somewhat unbelievable.
What faction could bring out so many Embryonic Breathing Realm strong practitioners at once? And it was just to capture her.
Wang Qinghan felt the seriousness of the problem. Although her identity was not simple and she also had some powerful enemies, those enemies did not need to make such a big fuss just to capture her. But those opponents didn't need to make such a big fuss just to catch her. According to what she knew, there were only a handful of people in the main space who could bring out so many Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioners.
"Young mistress … I will stay behind to bring up the rear. You go first."
Little Tang's expression changed drastically. She would rather stay behind to bring up the rear than to see her young mistress in danger.
Also, at this time, her young mistress had actually asked her to bring along that youth. She was extremely unwilling.
"Little Tang, you are not a match for them. Leave quickly."
Wang Qinghan's eyes stared intently at the men in black surrounding them as she urged her with a serious expression. Little Tang only had Sea of Qi Realm cultivation. Against this group of Embryonic Breathing Realm pinnacle strong practitioners, she would be instantly killed. She did not have the ability to bring up the rear at all.
Rather than dying here with them, it was better to give her a chance to escape. Perhaps she would have a chance of survival.
With more than ten Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioners, she had already realized that she could not escape from such a situation at all.
"None of you can leave," the leader of the men in black said with a sinister smile.
The leader of the black-clothed men smiled sinisterly. He slowly walked toward Wang Qinghan with leisurely steps.
Wang Qinghan coldly snorted. She pressed her palm downwards and her entire body flew up. A powerful aura surged from her body. She actually had intermediate stage Embryonic Breathing Cultivation.
Wang Qinghan was only in her early twenties. With such cultivation, she was definitely a top genius in the main space.
However, the black-clothed people were not surprised. Clearly, they understood Wang Qinghan's situation before they came.
A dozen black-clothed figures flew into the air at the same time. Each of them gave off a terrifying aura. With their pressure, they pushed Wang Qinghan back.
"Inescapable Net."
The men in black waved their hands, and black chains flew out at the same time. They weaved together and turned into a chain net that enveloped Wang Qinghan.
…
"Why aren't you running?"
Little Tang wiped away her tears and glared fiercely at Mo Wen. At this moment, she also realized that with her ability, there was no point in staying. It was better to escape immediately and report this matter to the sect. Perhaps they could still save the Young Miss.
Originally, Tang Bingyao wanted to escape by herself, but she remembered that the young miss had just ordered her to bring this young man away. She did not dare to disobey the young miss's orders.
"Are you scared out of your wits?"
Little Tang's figure swayed slightly and she appeared beside Mo Wen. Seeing Mo Wen looking expressionlessly at the black-clothed people surrounding the young miss, she thought that he had been scared silly by the sudden scene and his mind had yet to process what was happening.
Of course, an ordinary person would be scared silly in such a situation.
Little Tang did not care about the consequences. She extended her hand, preparing to grab Mo Wen's collar and escape.
However, she realized that she had failed to grab the young man with her ninety percent confidence.
How was this possible?
A glint of doubt flashed in Little Tang's eyes. Could it be that she was so nervous that there was something wrong with her vision? Otherwise, how could she not have caught an ordinary person?
She composed herself and once again grabbed Mo Wen's collar.
But the next moment, she was stunned.
She still had not caught him!
Mo Wen was clearly standing in front of her. He had not even changed his position, but she had not caught him twice in a row. It was like a dream. Her hand passed right through his body, unable to hold onto anything.
Little Tang immediately panicked. Faced with the attack of so many strong practitioners, the young miss would not be able to hold on for long. If they did not leave now, they would not have a chance to escape. If those people had not wanted to capture the young miss alive, she most likely would not have been able to hold on for more than a few breaths.
"What the hell!"
Little Tang did not believe it and once again tried to grab Mo Wen. However, this time, it was exactly the same as before. She still could not catch Mo Wen.
"Hey, are you a human or a ghost?"
Right now, Little Tang also felt that something was wrong. She could not help but feel a chill run down her spine. Could this fellow really be a ghost? Could it be that she had encountered a ghost in the middle of the day?
"Don't panic. Keep watching."
Mo Wen's lips curled up into a smile and he gave Little Tang a look that told her to calm down.
Little Tang's face turned pale. She wanted to say something. "You …"
But before she could say anything, something happened suddenly.
More than ten silhouettes suddenly flew out from the forest on both sides. They were like bolts of lightning, instantly flying into the pile of rubble and surrounding the group of black-clothed people.
Surprisingly, all of them were women. Each of them wore a silver ring on their fingers with a Vermilion Bird carved on it.
"As expected, it is you people from the Ghost Lair causing trouble again."
Among the group of people, the leader was an old woman. She looked to be over 70 years old, but she was full of energy. Her body emanated a frightening aura. A huge aura covered the entire stone forest. She was actually a beginning stage Golden Elixir Realm ancient martial art practitioner.
Aside from this old woman, the other people were all Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioners. There were four or five ancient martial art practitioners at the pinnacle of the Embryonic Breathing Realm.
In terms of combat ability, they were far superior to the group of black-clothed people from the Ghost Lair.
"Huatian Palace Six star Executors."
The expression of the leader of the black-clothed people changed drastically. His expression immediately darkened. They had actually encountered people from the Huatian Palace. Clearly, this was not a coincidence.
The expressions of the surrounding black-clothed people also turned ugly. They looked warily at this group of people who had appeared out of nowhere.
"So it is a senior from the Huatian Palace."
Wang Qinghan landed on the ground with disheveled hair. She was in a sorry state. She looked at the group of Huatian Palace Executors, her eyes full of surprise. Since the Huatian Palace had appeared, they would certainly take care of this matter.
She had not expected that this group of black-clothed people would actually attract the attention of the Huatian Palace. The Huatian Palace had never cared about ordinary grudges and fights in the Jianghu.
As expected, the origins of these people were not simple. If the Huatian Palace had come ten breaths later, she would most likely have been captured by these people.
"They are actually people from the Huatian Palace!"
Little Tang looked at the Huatian Palace Executors with a look of surprise. She heaved a sigh of relief. With the strong practitioners of the Huatian Palace here, who could still touch the young mistress? Even she knew that the Huatian Palace was a supreme existence, the ruler of the current ancient martial arts world.
"Don't celebrate too early. The people from the Ghost Lair are not easy to deal with. In the end, it is still uncertain who will be at a disadvantage."
Mo Wen smiled. He had not expected that he would actually be able to encounter people he knew. However, among the people from the Huatian Palace, they were all from the Vermilion Bird Palace Hall. It was very normal to encounter one or two people he knew.
"What do you know? The Huatian Palace is …"
Little Tang rolled her eyes at Mo Wen. This brat pretended to know what he did not know. However, halfway through her sentence, she suddenly stopped and retreated. She looked at Mo Wen with a wary expression and said coldly, "Who exactly are you?"
If it had been before, she could have thought that Mo Wen looked calm and composed on the surface, but in reality, he had been scared silly.
However, right now, he was still so calm and composed. That was somewhat abnormal.
How could an ordinary person be so calm when faced with such a situation?
"Don't be nervous. I have no ill intentions." Mo Wen smiled. This Little Tang was not stupid.
"It is not up to you to say whether I have ill intentions or not. After I met you, something like this happened. Do you think I will believe you?"
Little Tang laughed coldly. At this moment, she would not believe Mo Wen's words. With a flash of her silhouette, she immediately attacked. As long as she captured this youth, she could naturally slowly investigate whether he had any ill intentions.
However, she had just moved when a formless pressure descended from the sky, instantly enveloping her body.
The terrifying pressure caused her entire body to stiffen. She could not move at all. All the flesh and blood in her body seemed to have solidified. It was as though a huge, formless hand had viciously gripped her.
Little Tang struggled for a while, but it was to no avail. She could not even speak. She could not even move her eyes. She could only secretly panic, but there was nothing she could do.
What frightened her was that the extremely terrifying pressure that was pressing down on her body seemed to be something that only she could feel. Whether it was her young mistress, the group of black-robed men, or even the members of the Huatian Palace, none of them had discovered that she was abnormal.
It was too terrifying.
To be able to control the pressure so well that even the senior in the Golden Elixir Realm could not detect it, what realm must one be in to be able to do it?
"I am a disciple of the Zhongyu Sect, Wang Qinghan. I have no enmity with these people, but they are targeting me for no reason. Seniors of the Huatian Palace, please save me."
Wang Qinghan curtsied and then flew out of the encirclement of the black-robed men. With the strong practitioners of the Huatian Palace here, the black-robed men naturally did not dare to attack again.
"Don't worry. Since we are here, we will not let you fall into the hands of the Ghost Lair. These few days, the Ghost Lair has captured many women like you. You have already become an important target of protection for the Huatian Palace, "the Huatian Palace's six-star Executor said.
In reality, their appearance this time was not a coincidence. Based on the actions of the Ghost Lair during this period, they had long been prepared and had been secretly protecting Wang Qinghan. As expected, the members of the Ghost Lair had already targeted Wang Qinghan.
Upon hearing this, Wang Qinghan's expression changed slightly. As expected, these people had a motive for capturing her, and she was not the only one. But why had these people captured her? Could it be … Thinking of her special situation, Wang Qinghan's expression turned pale.
"So that's how it is. The previous few mission failures were all caused by the Huatian Palace, right?" The leader of the black-robed men looked coldly at the members of the Huatian Palace. He did not panic at all. Instead, he laughed coldly and said, "However, the one who has the last laugh is the true winner. Do you think that we will be unprepared after repeatedly foiling our plans?"
