Whoosh...
He Pingsheng flew out of the Ice Pole Sect and headed north!
His inquiries had yielded no answers.
But he had not come away entirely empty-handed.
He had received one piece of bad news: Xiao Xuan had also disappeared.
Moreover, Xiao Xuan had vanished even earlier, over a decade ago, not long after returning to the Ice Pole Sect following his Dao comprehension.
Xiao Xuan's disappearance bore a startling resemblance to Qiao Huizhu's.
Both had vanished without a sound or trace.
What did that mean?
It meant whoever had captured them possessed an extremely high cultivation level, at least one major realm above theirs-perhaps even the Spirit Transformation Stage.
Second, both had disappeared shortly after breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm.
The final similarity was that both Xiao Xuan and Qiao Huizhu had endured the eight-nine tribulation lightning.
Then who was behind it?
The Qi Kingdom?
Perhaps. After all, they had disappeared within its territory, and the Qi Kingdom had ample motive to capture them.
More importantly, only the Qi Kingdom Imperial Family had the power to capture Qiao Huizhu and Xiao Xuan.
"But..." He Pingsheng murmured as he flew, "Qiao Huizhu's and Xiao Xuan's Life Tablets are both completely intact. How strange. If the Qi Kingdom captured them, shouldn't they have killed them and taken their fortune?"
He Pingsheng had no leads and could make no sense of it.
He truly wanted to question the Qi Kingdom Imperial Family, but he also knew that even if he reached them, his current strength would give him no chance at all.
He lacked the strength.
What could he do?
He Pingsheng was utterly lost.
About an hour later, He Pingsheng arrived at a sect.
The Beast Taming Immortal Sect!
This place was not far from the Great Void Sect.
