Master Feng felt he couldn't leave this place today. Suddenly, he took out a jade pendant from his person and handed it to Tang Yilong, pushing him out of the villa with a powerful surge of true qi.
"Trying to leave? Not so easy!"
Li Yang saw through Master Feng's intention and immediately dashed out with a lightning step, quickly catching up to Tang Yilong, preparing to attack him and drag him back.
But at the crucial moment, Master Feng rose from the ground, unleashing a powerful Gu technique that swept through like wind and clouds.
Li Yang was enveloped by Gu qi, and Master Feng, with all his might, unleashed a palm strike towards Li Yang's chest.
Li Yang's anger erupted. He looked back at the incoming attack and met it with a palm of his own!
With a thunderous boom!
Master Feng's body was sent flying backward again. This time, as he landed on the ground, his body convulsed uncontrollably, and he continuously spat out blood.
The Gu qi surrounding Li Yang also vanished!
By the time Li Yang reacted and looked towards the doorway again, he found that Tang Yilong had vanished without a trace.
His anger surged, and he walked back to Master Feng, grabbed him by the chest, and demanded, "Tell me, where is Xinyu?"
"You'll never find her, Li Yang. You never expected this, did you? No matter how capable you are, you can't protect your woman." Master Feng, spitting blood, mocked him madly.
"You're asking for death!"
Li Yang instantly grabbed Master Feng by the neck, a furious glint in his eyes, and choked him to death without mercy!
"Mr. Li's assistant!"
Tang Hucheng rushed over to stop Li Yang, but he was a step too late; Master Feng was already dead.
He couldn't help but sigh mournfully, "Master Li, you've been foolish. By killing him like this, Xinyu's whereabouts will never be found."
"Uncle, there's no need to worry. Even if he didn't say it, I have ways to find Xinyu."
Li Yang responded seriously, then searched his body thoroughly.
Before long, Li Yang found a small bottle of Gu medicine. He carefully opened it and sniffed. It was exactly what he needed.
Turning back, Li Yang said seriously, "By using this bottle of Gu medicine from him, I can find Xinyu."
"What is this..." Tang Hucheng asked, puzzled.
"This is called a tracking Gu. My whereabouts have been exposed multiple times because I was tracked by this thing. Otherwise, those assassins wouldn't have found me."
Li Yang explained as he held the Gu medicine. He then poured out the contents, revealing a large black spider.
Everyone recoiled in fright.
Li Yang comforted them, "Don't worry, everyone. This Gu worm won't bite. Its purpose is to track people based on their scent."
"As long as it smells Xinyu's clothes, we can follow it to find her."
"I see. I'll have someone go to Xinyu's room and find a piece of her clothing right away."
Tang Hucheng immediately agreed and sent a nanny to Tang Xinyu's room. Before long, a nightgown was brought down.
After the poisonous spider sniffed it, Li Yang placed it on the ground. It automatically began to search, heading out of the villa.
"Hurry and follow!"
Seeing its tracks, Tang Hucheng quickly dispatched his men to follow.
Li Yang also followed closely. The spider moved at a considerable speed. After leaving the villa, it crossed the road directly and headed west.
About ten minutes later, the large spider led them into a deserted alley in the city.
It looked very eerie, with houses on the verge of collapse. It had been a no-man's-land for years.
Li Yang saw it slip through a door crack into a courtyard. He immediately stepped forward, pushed open the door, and entered a dilapidated courtyard.
At that moment, the spider stopped, no longer moving forward.
Tang Hucheng followed in and asked doubtfully, "Mr. Li, why isn't it moving? Could Xinyu be in the courtyard?"
"Everyone, don't act rashly. Wait here for me."
Li Yang felt that something was amiss with the courtyard. He told everyone to wait quietly here and walked alone towards a house in front.
As he reached the house and pushed open the door, a strong surge of Gu qi suddenly erupted from within!
Fortunately, Li Yang reacted quickly, leaning back swiftly to dodge the Gu qi attack. After entering, he discovered that this was a place where a Feng Shui master practiced.
Several skulls were placed on the ground, along with some jade antiques stained with blood.
These jade pieces were all made of pure silver!
Their power was not to be underestimated. The Gu qi that had just attacked had flown out from these antiques. Contact with them would immediately kill a person.
The formation of this Gu qi was achieved by refining it with the blood of hundreds of people!
Li Yang was shocked by what he saw and couldn't help but exclaim, "This Master Feng, I never expected him to be cultivating such evil arts in secret. It's fortunate I killed him today."
"Otherwise, once his evil arts were perfected, the entire Jiangcheng would become his slaughterhouse!"
"Help, help..."
As Li Yang was contemplating, faint cries for help came from the inner room.
He quickly got up and rushed towards the inner room. Upon opening the door, he was hit by a strong smell of blood. At the same time, he saw that hundreds of women were confined in a huge iron cage.
They were all girls aged fifteen or sixteen!
The moment Li Yang saw them, he understood that they were sacrificial victims. Master Feng had not had time to kill them before he himself perished.
"Are you all right? I'm here to save you. You'll all come with me shortly."
Li Yang walked to the cage, directly opened it, and released all the women inside.
Seeing Li Yang, these women were instinctively a little scared, unsure if he was a good person or a bad one.
It wasn't until Li Yang extended a helping hand and one brave woman followed Li Yang out safely that the remaining women followed Li Yang out.
However, after rescuing all of them, Li Yang discovered that Tang Xinyu was not among these women!
Li Yang immediately became very worried. Could Xinyu have met with an accident?
Was that scoundrel Tang Yilong lying!
"Sir, are you looking for someone? I know where the person you're looking for is."
Just then, one of the rescued girls suddenly said to Li Yang.
"Where is she?" Li Yang asked in surprise.
"She's in the secret passage under those wooden planks." The girl pointed to a pile of wood in the corner.
Li Yang quickly ran over, moved the wood aside, and indeed found a secret passage.
He jumped down without hesitation to find her, and before long, he found traces of Tang Xinyu.
Tang Xinyu was tightly bound inside, her mouth gagged. She looked very pitiful.
"Xinyu, I've come to save you."
