Chapter 409 The Woman in Black

"Can you describe the specific situation at the time?"

Waving his hand to have Xiao Yanzi perch on his palm, Qin Xuan eagerly wanted to know more.

Xiao Yanzi nodded humanly back and forth, describing the specific details of the situation to Qin Xuan.

Yanzi: That person was dressed differently from you, wearing a long, flowing garment. Their hair was very long, extending to their waist, and their aura was strange. Moreover, they could fly in mid-air like us.

"Fly?"

"Was it simple hovering, or could they move freely in the air?"

Yanzi: What do you mean by hovering? I don't understand. But from the moment they appeared until they took Miss away, they never touched the ground. They could fly even better than me!

Took Miss and disappeared?!

Hearing Yanzi's words, Qin Xuan could no longer sit still.

Only those at the God level could generally float in the air continuously or even fly away.

Furthermore, after abducting Ling'er, the other party had not contacted him in any way.

This indicated that their purpose was extremely clear: they were after Ling'er herself!

But…

If he disregarded his own involvement,

How could Ling'er, an ordinary college student, be involved with a God-level expert, a person rarely seen in the world?

Was it because her physique was special and beneficial to that God-level expert? Or was it…

Just as Qin Xuan casually caught a fly for Xiao Yanzi as a reward and was about to discuss it with his masters, a furtive figure suddenly entered his sight.

It was a man in black tight-fitting clothes, with a delicate appearance and a slender build.

He had been silently observing from the street corner since Qin Xuan and Xiao Yanzi began their conversation.

Only when he noticed Qin Xuan's gaze did he turn and flee, disappearing into the crowd in the blink of an eye.

"Damn it, stop!"

Without time to explain the situation to An Bo, Qin Xuan roared and immediately gave chase at his fastest speed.

However, as the evening rush hour arrived, the number of pedestrians on the road increased.

Qin Xuan had no choice but to rely on the guidance of everything around him to trail the person from a distance.

He followed all the way to the wilderness on the outskirts of the city before he once again unleashed his astonishing speed, rushing towards the figure.

After another half an hour, Qin Xuan finally found the black figure by a small stream.

"Heh heh, not bad speed!"

As Qin Xuan stopped, the black figure actually spoke first, commenting on Qin Xuan's speed.

The voice was effeminate, and it was clear that it was a girl deliberately imitating a man's speech.

However, Qin Xuan was not in the mood to banter with the other party at the moment.

Lurking at the place where Ling'er disappeared, and with an appearance very similar to the God-level expert described by Xiao Yanzi.

If he were to say there was no connection between these two, Qin Xuan would never believe it, even if he were beaten to death.

Therefore, the reason he pursued them this time was entirely to use the black-clothed man…

The black-clothed woman, to obtain news of Ling'er.

And if luck was on his side, he might even be able to see his Ling'er through her!

"Who exactly are you?"

"And why did you take Ling'er away?"

"Why?" the black-clothed woman chuckled, "If you want to know, fight me first!"

"Wait!"

Seeing that the other party was about to attack with a rush, Qin Xuan hastily retreated several meters, extending his hand as if to stop her.

It wasn't that he was afraid of fighting her, but Ling'er's life and death were uncertain, and every choice he made now could affect the subsequent developments.

He didn't want his momentary impulsiveness to lead to any suffering for Ling'er later on.

But the black-clothed woman clearly didn't want to listen to his rambling.

"So much nonsense?!"

"Just fight when I tell you to!"

With a flash, the black-clothed woman, like a fleeting afterimage in the wind, arrived instantly.

With a flick of her right hand, a slender short sword emitting a cold gleam directly stabbed towards Qin Xuan's throat.

Seeing this, Qin Xuan extended his right hand to block.

As the short sword collided with the Omnipresent Divine Artifact, a black shadow slowly emerged under the moonlight.

"What kind of sword is that?!"

The black-clothed woman was very surprised by the sudden appearance of the Omnipresent Divine Artifact.

But even so, her movements did not stop at all.

Failing to hit her target, she then retreated, positioning herself three body lengths away from Qin Xuan.

Then, with a light step, she gracefully sprang up.

"Spiritual Connection!"

A stern voice rang out, and Qin Xuan felt an intense chill from the crown of his head to the soles of his feet.

If he were still the person he was a month ago, this single strike would have been enough to end his life!

However, as the saying goes, "After three days of separation, one should look at each other with new eyes."

Qin Xuan at this moment was already worlds apart from his previous self.

He casually raised the Omnipresent Divine Artifact above his head to parry the short sword, then grabbed with his left hand and pulled down forcefully.

The black-clothed woman was instantly thrown to the ground, grabbed by her clothes, and was completely stunned.

"You have considerable cultivation but lack practical experience. Are you a descendant of a prominent family? Or a disciple of a sect?"

"Never mind, I don't care about your identity."

"I just want you to tell me who took my Ling'er, and how I can find her now?"

With the tip of his sword pointed at the black-clothed woman in front of him, Qin Xuan's voice became somewhat impatient.

The longer Ling'er remained missing, the more her safety could be threatened with every second he delayed.

However, facing Qin Xuan's interrogation, the other party did not seem prepared to reveal any information.

Apart from a momentary flicker of panic in her eyes when the sword tip was pointed at her, the black-clothed woman quickly reverted to her initial playful and smiling demeanor.

No matter how Qin Xuan questioned her, she only praised Qin Xuan's good temperament and decent cultivation.

Beyond that, she remained completely silent.

This infuriated Qin Xuan to no end.

He wished he could directly use a soul-searching technique to read the memories in her mind.

Unfortunately, this woman's mental strength was no less than his. If he attempted soul-searching directly, it would likely result in a mutual defeat.

Now, Qin Xuan could no longer tolerate it.

I was being polite to you because I was afraid that provoking you would cause my Ling'er to suffer.

But now that you're not even cooperating with me, then I'm sorry, I'll have to do something harsh to you too!

With a cold snort, Qin Xuan directly aimed the tip at the woman's fair neck.

Under her nonchalant expression, he gently pushed it forward a few inches.

"Ah! What are you doing?!"

With a startled cry, the black-clothed woman thought Qin Xuan had lost control of his strength.

But when her gaze met Qin Xuan's dark, murderous eyes, her expression completely changed.

Yes, this person was not like the brothers in her family who always indulged her.

Nor was this her family's ancestral land with several elders protecting her.

Now, the other party was on the verge of a furious outburst.

If she didn't cooperate, something bad might really happen!
