Realizing something was wrong, this Young Lord immediately ordered the others to retreat.
But the situation had completely changed.
At this moment, Qin Xuan had already tasted the sweetness.
If before he only wanted to escape, now Qin Xuan wanted to encircle and kill.
"Since you're already here, why don't you stay!"
As Qin Xuan spoke, the Refining God Cauldron in his hand spun, and at the same time, his Mental Energy immediately spread out like a fishing net, extending in all directions.
At the same time, his double pupils immediately rotated, and several Divine Souls that had originally intended to escape instantly became as if stuck in a quagmire, their movements becoming incredibly slow.
"All of you, come here!"
As Qin Xuan spoke, the large net of Mental Energy immediately retracted, pulling these Divine Souls into the Refining God Cauldron.
Only this Young Lord managed to break free from the Mental Energy's restraint in the first instance and fled outwards.
"This kid must have some Mental Energy secret technique or Martial Skill, otherwise, he couldn't have broken free from your Mental Energy's restraint."
Han Ye said to Qin Xuan.
Qin Xuan naturally understood as well; he sneered, immediately raised his hand, and a Thunder Dragon instantly appeared, blocking the person's path.
"You'd better not leave yet; obediently stay here!"
As the Thunder Dragon appeared, the Young Lord's Divine Soul was blocked, and just as he was about to dodge, Qin Xuan fiercely grabbed the Young Lord's Divine Soul.
Powerful Mental Energy immediately transformed into a Surprise Spirit Stab, rendering this Young Lord unconscious, and then he threw him into the Refining God Cauldron as well.
"Now let's see how you run!"
Qin Xuan was triumphant, but then he thought of the two Shangqing Realm experts over there, immediately shook his head, and turned to leave.
"It's better to leave here first; at worst, I'll take a detour back to the capital, but I can't be caught by them!"
Qin Xuan pondered, then turned and ran into the dense forest.
At the same time, the expressions of the two people on the Cloud Boat suddenly changed, and they immediately stared intently into the distance.
"Not good, why has contact with the Young Lord suddenly been cut off? The Young Lord is in danger!"
As the two spoke, they immediately turned and left.
"Stay here!"
Seeing these two come and go as they pleased, the Grand Elder immediately moved to stop them.
"You, surnamed Jiang, don't be ungrateful! I'm only bothering with you out of respect for the Azure Green Sect's Face, but if you still don't know what's good for you and dare to act presumptuously here, I have many ways to deal with you!"
With that, the two pushed the Grand Elder aside, tore open a Space Channel, and left.
"Damn it!"
The Grand Elder was usually second only to one person in the Azure Green Sect, above everyone else, and now to be so humiliated was truly intolerable.
But he also understood that this was not the time to act on impulse.
As an Elder, he was responsible for sending these Disciples to the capital.
Thinking of this, he took a deep breath.
"Everyone, return to your rooms immediately; we are departing."
Hearing this, several Disciples of the Azure Green Sect mumbled.
"What about Qin Xuan..."
Listening to this, the Grand Elder's expression turned ugly as he looked at the few people from the Thousand Dharma Hall; these people, seeing the Grand Elder's angry gaze, also shrunk their heads.
"We are also doing this for everyone's good; they specifically asked for Qin Xuan to come out, so why should we defy these people? Wouldn't it be better to just hand over one person?"
Hearing this, the Grand Elder sneered and shook his head.
"Hmph, don't try to argue. When we return, I will naturally have a good discussion about this matter with your sect's Elders, to see what kind of good Disciples they have taught."
Hearing this, some Disciples from the Thousand Dharma Hall were still unconvinced.
But looking at the Grand Elder, they could only lower their heads.
After all, the person in front of them was not someone they could afford to offend.
"All of you, shut up. Now, prepare to depart immediately."
The Grand Elder directly ordered these people to shut up and told everyone to return to their rooms.
Looking at the empty surroundings, the Grand Elder sighed with emotion, only able to helplessly let the Cloud Boat continue forward.
Regarding Qin Xuan, he was now powerless.
Not only was he unaware of Qin Xuan's location, but even if he knew, he wouldn't dare to casually bring him over.
Those two were both at Shangqing Ninth Level; he couldn't defeat one, let alone two.
Thinking of this, he could only sigh with emotion.
As the Cloud Boat moved forward, the Grand Elder withdrew his gaze and continued to control it, rushing towards the capital.
At this moment, a Space Channel opened at the place where Qin Xuan had previously fought with that Young Lord.
Two black-clothed people emerged from the Space Channel, their Faces ashen as they looked at the scene before them.
"Hmph, this is all your doing! I said we should come earlier to help the Young Lord, but you, on the other hand, insisted that this was a good opportunity to train the Young Lord. Now look, we've lost contact with the Young Lord, what do we do now?"
"What are you panicking about!"
The other person snorted coldly.
"The Young Lord has clearly been captured by someone, but judging from the combat situation here, the Young Lord hasn't suffered any major problems; he should only be imprisoned."
"You use your Divine Soul to investigate and see if you can find any flaws."
But the two searched for a long time and found no significant traces left behind.
"That shouldn't be; the corpses should at least be nearby. Could it be that this person took the corpses with him?"
The two pondered, and as they continued their search, after a long while, they finally found a pile of corpses on the ground that had turned into a fleshy pulp.
Looking at these corpses, the two immediately exchanged glances.
"This, what do we do? Can you sense the Young Lord's Divine Soul's location?"
The two looked at each other and sensed, but after a long while, they found nothing.
"No, nothing at all; I can't sense anything."
By this point, the two were despairing.
"It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, how could the Young Lord have met with disaster this time? It was you who insisted on going to toy with that Azure Green Sect Grand Elder, saying it was to get revenge for your Physical Body being destroyed. Now what? You messed up, didn't you?"
This person complained, his gaze towards the other person also aggressive.
"Don't say useless things. Just tell me what we should do next?"
The other black-clothed person also sneered.
By this time, complaining was useless; it was better to think of a way to salvage the situation.
Hearing this, after a long while, one of them frowned.
"You say, what if we kill everyone on the Cloud Boat and seize their Physical Bodies?"
"Will the master forgive us then?"
Seeing the other person's gaze as if looking at an idiot, this person could only sigh.
"There's no other way; this time, the Young Lord has died. Even if the master is magnanimous, he won't let us off. Since that's the case, it seems we only have one path: to escape. But if we can't return on time, these corpses will rot and decay. What will you and I do then?"
The two sighed, and by this point, they themselves didn't know how to handle this matter next.
"I don't believe it; where can this little thief run off to? Call all our people here, and thoroughly search this place. I don't believe we can't find him even if we dig three feet deep!"
