As soon as Wang Jiuling entered the room, he sensed that something was wrong. Upon asking, he learned that Guo Xiang and Guo Polu had been taken away.

Huang Rong, supported by Cheng Ying, closed her eyes and finally managed to recover.

"Quick! Go find it!"

On the streets of Xiangyang, Fan Yiweng and his companions carried bamboo baskets on their backs, each containing a child.

At this moment, Guo Xiang and Guo Polu, sleeping in the bamboo basket, felt the jolting and began to cry, causing Fan Yiweng and the others to scramble around in a panic. "Hurry, hurry!"

Meanwhile, on the street behind, Guo Fu and her two companions rode their horses at breakneck speed.

Riding a horse like that on the streets of the city is naturally very dangerous.

boom!

Guo Fu was riding her horse when she accidentally knocked over a roadside stall.

But Guo Fu didn't stop.

The Guo family will handle the compensation later; she's in a hurry to catch up with him now.

"Hurry! That vendor said it's just one street ahead! We absolutely can't let them leave town!"

Guo Fu shouted at Da Wu and Xiao Wu behind her.

But just then, a man and a woman at a roadside tea stall ahead frowned.

The man, dressed in white, was in his twenties, with a handsome face and an extraordinary demeanor.

The man slammed his hand on the table and stood up.

He leaped forward and blocked the middle of the street. When Guo Fu and the other two saw someone blocking their way, they quickly reined in their horses.

"Hey! Get out of the way!"

The man in white pointed a finger at Guo Fu. "You're so arrogant!"

"Riding a horse recklessly through the street, crashing into someone's stall without even apologizing?"

Guo Fu had always had a fiery temper. She pulled on the reins, and the little red horse neighed.

"What's it to you? Get out of my way! Or I'll just charge through!"

The man in white didn't back down at all. Guo Fu grew anxious and looked at Da Wu and Xiao Wu behind her. "What are you waiting for? Attack!"

Upon hearing this, Da Wu and Xiao Wu jumped off their horses and grabbed the white-clad man's clothes.

Guo Fu, on the other hand, took the opportunity to go around from the other side.

Unexpectedly, the man in white was extremely skilled in martial arts. When Da Wu and Xiao Wu grabbed at him, he simply dodged by turning to the side.

He then grabbed their arms, spun them around, and threw them to the side.

He then blocked Guo Fuma's path once again.

Guo Fu was blocked again before she could even get started.

Desperate, she dismounted and pointed at the man in white. "Do you know who I am?!"

The man in white snorted coldly. "I don't care who you are! Apologize to them and pay up!"

Guo Fu was so angry that her nose twisted.

She drew her sword and charged toward the man in white, with Da Wu and Xiao Wu following behind.

"Brother! Catch the sword!"

At the tea stall, the woman who was with the man in white threw a long sword from the table.

After receiving the sword, the man in white did not draw it from its sheath, but instead used the sheath to fight.

But Guo Fu and the other two couldn't do anything about him.

"Ouch!" Wu Xiuwen was hit in the waist by a sword sheath and stumbled and fell to the side.

At the street corner, Wang Jiuling was hurrying over.

From afar, they could see Guo Fu, Da Wu, and Xiao Wu fighting with a man.

Pedestrians hurriedly made way.

Although the man in white was using a scabbard, Wang Jiuling recognized his swordsmanship at a glance.

"The Quanzhen Swordplay?"

Wang Jiuling lightly touched the ground with his foot and headed in that direction.

Just as the white-clad man's sword sheath was about to strike Wu Dunru's shoulder again, Wang Jiuling leaped forward, opened his hand, and pinched the sword sheath with his fingers.

The man in white was very surprised by Wang Jiuling's sudden appearance. He tried to pull the sword out of its sheath, but he couldn't.

Wang Jiuling's fingers were as if they were made of fine steel, and the man in white felt as if the long sword in his hand was completely fixed in place.

They were immediately shocked.

Wang Jiuling snapped his fingers, and before the man in white could make any move, he felt a tremendous force come from him, and the long sword in his hand slipped out of his grasp.

The next second, Wang Jiuling flicked his wrist, and the sword appeared in his hand.

The man in white suddenly found his hands empty, took a step back, and looked on in horror. The woman who was with him also rushed over.

"elder brother!"

The white-robed man's eyes widened. He felt that the Taoist priest in front of him looked very young, but his martial arts skills were so astonishing!

Guo Fu's eyes lit up with joy when she saw Wang Jiuling.

"Stinky passage..."

She started to say something, then changed her mind. "Uncle... of the world."

She pointed at the man in white. "I was about to catch up with that thief when this guy suddenly blocked my way! Those thieves are probably long gone now, maybe they've even left the city!"

Wu Xiuwen clutched his back. "Yes! It's him! I think he's in cahoots with the thieves!"

At this moment, Huang Rong and Cheng Ying also caught up, and Wang Jiuling told them what had happened.

The man in white listened to their conversation with a look of confusion in his eyes.

But Wang Jiuling and his companions had no time to say more to him at that moment, and chased after the thief in the direction he had left.

The man in white and his sister exchanged a glance and followed.

But after chasing them for a while, they completely lost track of them.

The other side has most likely already left the city, and they have no idea which direction to pursue them in.

Now, everyone was extremely anxious.

Only then did the man in white learn Guo Fu's identity and the whole story, realizing that he had harmed her.

"It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, I would have caught up with the thief long ago!"

"Mother! Uncle! He must be in cahoots with the thieves!" Guo Fu stamped her foot and complained to Wang Jiuling and Huang Rong.

The man in white looked extremely embarrassed.

"Gentlemen! I am not with that thief! I simply intervened because I saw injustice... I'm sorry! I..."

Enraged, Guo Fu burst into a tirade: "What's the use of an apology? Will it catch the thief? Will it save my younger siblings?"

"What good would your apology do if something happened to my younger siblings?!"

Hearing Guo Fu's words and seeing the unfriendly looks in everyone's eyes, the man in white looked very ugly.

With his own sword still in Wang Jiuling's hand, he snatched the sword from his sister's hand, drew it, and handed it to everyone.

"Gentlemen! It was my fault!"

"If you give me a chance, I will track down the thief and rescue the child!"

"If you refuse to forgive me, even if you kill me with a single sword, I will have no complaints!"

The man's sister panicked. "Brother!" But the man raised his hand to stop her.

His eyes were incredibly firm, and he even closed them.

Just then, Wang Jiuling took the sword from his hand. Feeling his hand go empty, the white-clad man gritted his teeth but remained motionless with his eyes closed.

Seeing Wang Jiuling raise his sword and point it at the man in white, his sister panicked and tried to stop him. "No!"

But the man in white grabbed her arm, preventing her from going forward.

Huang Rong frowned and looked at Wang Jiuling.

The man in white didn't receive a sword, but instead received a question from Wang Jiuling.

"Were you using the Quanzhen Sword Technique just now? May I ask your teacher?"

The man in white looked up and opened his eyes, only to see Wang Jiuling looking at him.

He froze for a moment.

"I am a disciple of the Quanzhen School! My name is Yelü Qi!"

Wang Jiuling thought to himself, "As expected, I had already guessed Yelü Qi's identity and knew he wasn't a bad person."

I was in such a hurry to catch up with him that I didn't have time to say anything.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have been as simple as just snatching the sword.

Wang Jiuling reached out and handed the sword to Huang Rong.

Huang Rong was initially heartbroken and almost considered taking action, but she reacted quickly.

Just now, Wang Jiuling took the initiative to test Yelü Qi with his sword, but Yelü Qi did not dodge. Huang Rong, holding the sword in her hand, immediately understood Wang Jiuling's meaning.

Wang Jiuling deliberately revealed Yelü Qi's true identity, letting her know that the latter was not a bad person, but Wang Jiuling did not make decisions for her.

Huang Rong regained her composure, glanced gratefully at Wang Jiuling, and then looked at Yelü Qi.

She swiftly sheathed the longsword back into Yelü Qi's hand.

"Since you know you're wrong, what's the point of stabbing you? If you truly repent, come with me to retrieve your child and atone for your sins!"

...

At that moment, Fan Yiweng and his companions were already halfway to the Valley of Heartbreak on horseback.

The man at the very front suddenly stopped his horse, slapped his forehead, and looked full of regret.

"Oh dear! The Valley Master wanted to use these two children to send Guo Jing and Huang Rong to the Valley of Heartbreak to die, but we forgot to leave a note!"

They had no idea who we were!
