The reconstructed spirit root was still very weak, but to Ye Qingtang, it was a qualitative leap!
The entire Ye Family was still searching for Ye Ning's whereabouts.
The Third Elder mobilized all the forces in the Ye Family and searched the distance from Lin Town to the Withered Leaves Forest more than ten times. However, after two whole days, they still did not have any news of Ye Ning.
Instead, they found the corpse of Ye Ning's follower in the Withered Leaves Forest. The corpse had been thrown into the forest and was badly mutilated after being bitten by ferocious beasts. All that was left was a skeleton with some skin and flesh.
When the guards of the Ye Family carried the incomplete corpse of the follower to the Third Elder, the Third Elder almost fainted from the nauseating stench of decay.
"Useless! All a bunch of useless good-for-nothings! There are so many of you, but you can't even find a single clue. What's the point of the Ye Family keeping you alive! "The Third Elder pointed at the people kneeling in the hall furiously.
This follower was Ye Ning's trusted aide and had followed Ye Ning to get rid of Ye Qingtang. But now … he had become a skeleton, and there was still no news of Ye Ning!
The Third Elder simply could not imagine what kind of state his grandson was in now.
Everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to make a sound. It was not that they were not diligent. They were just short of digging three feet into the Withered Leaves Forest, but Ye Ning seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth. Not a single trace was left behind.
"Go! Call that slut, Ye Qingtang, over here! If she doesn't hand Ning 'er over today, I will tear her into pieces! "The Third Elder shouted angrily. The corpse of the follower made him increasingly worried about Ye Ning's safety.
Just as the Third Elder finished speaking, a smiling female voice suddenly rang out.
"Oh? I would like to see how the Third Elder is going to dismember me. "
The moment the Third Elder raised his head, he saw Ye Qingtang, who had appeared outside the hall …
"Ye Qingtang! You came at the right time! Where exactly did you hide Ning 'er! If you don't hand Ning 'er over today, don't think of leaving here alive! "The Third Elder stood up angrily and pointed at Ye Qingtang's nose as he scolded her.
Ye Qingtang looked at the enraged Third Elder, and her lips curled into a faint smile. Under everyone's anxious gaze, she leisurely sat on a chair in the hall and crossed her slender legs elegantly.
"Third Elder, you're really getting old, and your temper is getting worse. However, allow me to remind you that if I die, you can forget about seeing your precious grandson ever again." Ye Qingtang said with a grin. "Third Elder, you're really getting on in years.
"What a joke! Who do you think you are? Do you think I can't find you just because you're hiding Ning 'er? Even if you die, with so many people in the Yeh family, they will be able to find Ning 'er sooner or later. I'm only giving you a chance. If you don't cherish it, don't blame me for being merciless! "Third Elder pretended to be calm as he spoke but a trace of unease flashed across his eyes.
Ye Qingtang raised her hand nonchalantly. "You don't have to give me a chance. You can kill me now."
The Third Elder's face darkened.
If he had a way to find Ye Ning, he wouldn't be here talking nonsense with her!
Right now, he really wished for nothing more than to slap this evildoer into minced meat!
Even though Third Elder could not wait to kill her, he could tell that she was not afraid of death. Otherwise, she would not have returned to the Ye Family.
