Chapter 58: Saving Someone
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After Zi Xuan’s description, Hong Ling understood what was going on at the scene and also realized that the strength of that white-robed youth probably far exceeded her imagination!
Hong Ling frowned. She was worried that the person she had set her sight on would be snatched away by others. Even if this white-robed youth was a tough nut to crack, she had to take him down!
If he was really snatched away by other families or sects, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Hong Ling grabbed Zi Xuan’s hand. “Let’s go! Bring me to him!”
Zi Xuan grabbed Hong Ling’s hand with her other hand in pain. “I only had time to see the direction he disappeared in. I don’t know where he is now!”
“Then let’s find our way there!” Hong Ling grabbed Zi Xuan and walked out.
People were still wailing in pain in the restaurant. A person on the ground blocked Hong Ling’s way.
He grabbed Hong Ling’s feet and begged, “Please, save me! Save me!”
Hong Ling glanced at the man and snorted. “You brought this on yourself!”
Although Hong Ling said that, she didn’t actually abandon these people.
Firstly, the First Restaurant was a famous restaurant in the imperial capital. There were many people coming and going here. Once someone discovered that they had come but left this place without helping them, their reputation would suffer.
Secondly, Hong Ling recognized the person under her feet. It was Qi Bin, the youngest son of the Qi family, which had dealings with High Heaven Pavilion.
If the Qi family found out that the High Heaven Pavilion didn’t help Qi Bin despite seeing him suffer here, it might affect their business in the future.
Because of the pain, Qi Bin’s expression was distorted and he kept punching himself. “I feel terrible.”
Hong Ling nodded at the servant beside her.
The servant immediately walked over and held Qi Bin’s hand to investigate carefully.
“Deputy Pavilion Master, he must be under a spell. He didn’t suffer any external injuries.” The servant put down Qi Bin’s hand and said to Hong Ling respectfully.
Even though Hong Ling was unwilling, she could only purse her lips and instruct her servant to feed Qi Bin some medicine so that he could temporarily escape from the spell and feel less pain.
At the same time, she asked her servant to feed the others medicine so that no one would say that High Heaven Pavilion didn’t deal with the matter properly.
Hong Ling finished giving instructions and was about to walk out again.
Zi Xuan suddenly thought of something and grabbed Hong Ling’s hand. “Aren’t we going to help them?”
As Zi Xuan spoke, she looked in the direction of Nie Yin and the others.
Hong Ling rolled her eyes at her. “Can we do anything about it? If the people from the few major families find out that we saw them in such an embarrassing state, they’ll think of a way to make up for it. We might as well pretend that we didn’t notice and let them take some medicine to relieve themselves before leaving!”
Only then did Zi Xuan nod in understanding. “I see! Sister Hong Ling, you’re so thoughtful!”
“Alright! Don’t waste time. Hurry up and find him!” As Hong Ling spoke, she pulled Zi Xuan’s hand impatiently and walked out.
The two of them left the First Restaurant and moved quickly between the rooftops while looking for Chao Bai.
However, when the two of them chased all the way to the forest outside the imperial capital, they realized that Chao Bai’s scent had disappeared.
“He’s gone?” Zi Xuan looked at the spiritual energy floating in the surrounding trees, but she couldn’t find the scent of the man that had impressed her earlier.
Hong Ling looked around and gazed at the distant valley. “There’s a lot of spiritual energy here. It probably covers that person’s aura.”
“Or maybe they went in there.” Hong Ling said, pointing to the valley in the distance.
“There?” Zi Xuan exclaimed and looked at the valley filled with dense fog. “Isn’t that the legendary Death Valley in the imperial capital?”
“What’s it called? Spirit Mountain?” Zi Xuan frowned as she looked at the fog in the valley. “It’s said that Nie Yin brought that little girl called Li Ling to find medicine for the princess not long ago.”
“In the end, one of them was injured, and the other was poisoned. Moreover, the guards they brought with them suffered heavy casualties!” Zi Xuan smacked her lips and lamented, “That place is very creepy!”
Hong Ling had naturally heard about this as well. She believed that the valley was far more mysterious than they thought.
Could that white-robed youth have gone there?
