Lingxi Town is not large, and most of the people coming and going are low-level cultivators and mortal merchants.

The air was filled with the smells of cooking, a stark contrast to the cold and desolate atmosphere of other cultivation grounds in the Cangxuan Realm.

As agreed, Lin Xiao headed straight for the only inn in the center of the town.

But when he pushed open the door and scanned the lobby, he did not see that familiar light blue figure.

Seeing his bewildered expression, the innkeeper quickly stepped forward and asked, "Sir, are you looking for a room or someone?"

"I'm looking for someone. Does anyone know if a girl in a light blue fairy dress, carrying a long sword, lives here?"

Lin Xiao quickly asked, a faint sense of unease rising in his heart.

Upon hearing this, the boss's expression changed immediately. He hesitated, then finally shook his head and forced a smile, saying, "No, no..."

Seeing this, Lin Xiao knew perfectly well that something must have gone wrong.

His voice deepened as he channeled his remaining spiritual energy, saying, "Boss, that's my friend. We arranged to meet here. Could you please tell me what happened?"

The boss was just an ordinary person, and he was immediately startled when he sensed the aura emanating from Lin Xiao.

"So you're a celestial master. Yes, that's right. A fairy in blue did come to stay at our inn, but, but..."

Seeing this, Lin Xiao became anxious and pressed, "What happened? Tell me quickly!"

Seeing this, the shopkeeper naturally dared not hide anything any longer and had no choice but to tell the whole story.

A moment later, Lin Xiao walked out of the inn, looking utterly dejected.

He was stunned and speechless when he recalled what the shopkeeper had just said.

To everyone's surprise, in just a few hours, Lin Qishuang was forcibly taken away by a mysterious Taoist nun.

Despite being a Golden Core cultivator, he was taken away without any resistance.

This is enough to demonstrate how profound the cultivation level of the Taoist nun who took Lin Qishuang away was.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiao couldn't help but clench the bag of snacks in his hand, his fingertips turning white from the force.

Lin Qishuang was taken away, but he didn't even know where she came from or where she was going, let alone how to rescue her.

He currently only has one-tenth of Lin Qishuang's Qi Refining cultivation. Let alone a Nascent Soul cultivator, he might not even be able to defeat a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"No, we have to get back to the real world as soon as possible and see what kind of trouble this game has gotten into this time!"

Lin Xiao took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down, and secretly made plans in his mind.

He composed himself and hurried toward the exit of Lingxi Town, his heart filled with anxiety, barely noticing the commotion around him.

However, just as he was about to leave the town and turned a corner, a chilling aura suddenly swept over him from the front.

In an instant, the air around him froze, making it difficult to even breathe.

Lin Xiao was startled and stopped abruptly. Looking up, he saw a figure standing at the intersection ahead.

She was a woman dressed in a black dress, with long hair reaching her waist and skin so white it was almost translucent. She possessed an eerie and alluring beauty.

It had a pair of eyes; the left eye was as black as ink, while the right eye was a bright white, which was quite eerie.

Simply by standing there, the oppressive aura emanating from him was enough to make Lin Xiao stiffen and cause his spiritual energy to become chaotic.

She couldn't even stand steadily and could only barely hold onto the wall to avoid falling.

"What... what's going on?"

Lin Xiao was overwhelmed with shock, even more so than when he heard that Lin Qishuang had been taken away.

The aura emanating from this woman was more terrifying than any he had ever seen before.

His cold and domineering demeanor, coupled with a destructive and ferocious aura, clearly indicates that he is not a simple character!

The woman in the black dress slowly lifted her feet and walked towards Lin Xiao, her steps light and graceful.

But every step felt like it was stepping on Lin Xiao's heart, making his heart race and his whole body go cold.

She sized Lin Xiao up and down, a mocking yet icy smile playing on her lips, her voice alluring yet chilling:

"Are you looking for that Qingping Sword Immortal?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao's eyes lit up, and his fear of the other party lessened somewhat. He quickly asked:

"Who are you? Do you know who took Lin Qishuang away?"

Hearing Lin Xiao's question, the woman in black was somewhat surprised and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Oh, you don't recognize me?"

"Um..." Lin Xiao was slightly taken aback, then asked curiously, "Should I get to know you?"

"Interesting, very interesting." The woman in black smiled slightly, looking at Lin Xiao as if she had seen some rare and precious treasure.

Lin Xiao got goosebumps all over from the black-clad woman's laughter.

However, in order to inquire about Lin Qishuang, he patiently asked, "May I ask if you know who took away the Sword Immortal Qingping? Please tell me, and I will reward you handsomely in the future."

Upon hearing this, the woman in black narrowed her eerie eyes slightly and took a few more steps closer.

The chill around him grew stronger, almost freezing Lin Xiao to the bone.

She extended her fair, jade-like fingertips and gently lifted Lin Xiao's chin, her tone full of mockery as she said, "A generous reward? What kind of generous reward could a little brat like you, who hasn't even mastered qi cultivation, possibly offer me?"

Lin Xiao froze, barely daring to breathe, and instinctively gripped the bag of snacks in her hand.

My mind raced, and suddenly I remembered what I was holding.

These mortal snacks don't exist in the Cangxuan Realm, so perhaps they could catch the eye of this female demon?

Regardless, he wanted to give it a try, so he quickly said, "I...I have a unique treasure from my hometown, with an exquisite taste. If you tell me the whereabouts of the Qingping Sword Immortal, I'm willing to give it all to you!"

The woman in black's gaze fell on the bulging bag of snacks in his hand. Her left eye, black, and her right eye, white, shifted slightly, a hint of curiosity flashing across her face.

She could sense that the object in the man's hand did not seem to belong to this Cangxuan Realm.

Out of curiosity, the woman in black raised her hand.

The next moment, an invisible force pulled the snack bag from Lin Xiao's hand.

When she opened it, she found that the small cakes, potato chips, and cola inside were all things she had never seen before.

"Is this your treasure?" She picked up a potato chip, sniffed it lightly, and the playfulness on her lips faded slightly.

"This is quite novel; such an object has never existed in the Cangxuan Realm before."

Seeing her expression relax, Lin Xiao was overjoyed and quickly pressed his advantage, saying:

"Sir, these are all specialties from my hometown, delicious and unique. Just tell me the whereabouts of Little... Qingping Sword Immortal, and I'll give you all of these. I can even bring you more!"

The woman in black chuckled softly, flicked her fingertips, and popped a potato chip into her mouth.

After a slight pause, the woman in black gave Lin Xiao a strange look.

Then, he slowly opened his mouth, his tone finally no longer so piercing, and said, "The ones who took Lin Qishuang away were from the Sword Pavilion, so you don't need to worry."
