Chu Shaotian walked up to He Bi and pointed at Futian, saying, "Sister He Bi, this old gentleman is here to see Guan Tian. Why don't you have a chat with him?"
Since Guan Tian referred to He Bi as his senior sister, Chu Shaotian followed suit and called her the same.
As soon as Futian saw He Bi, he was captivated by her celestial beauty.
My goodness, how can there be such a beautiful girl? She is stunning from every angle, truly breathtaking.
Futian often compared beautiful women to Tai Shi Pian Pian, so he had seen countless beauties. Yet, in his seasoned eyes, He Bi had no flaws at all; she was indeed as beautiful as a celestial being!
First, her vibrant lips caught the eye, followed by her curvaceous figure. Her skin was fair and delicate, her eyes sparkling with life, her face round like a full moon, her limbs long and graceful. She moved with an elegant poise that exuded an otherworldly aura.
At first glance, He Bi seemed to be at the Pinnacle of the Marvelous Realm.
Looking at her made boys swoon. Even Futian, this old fellow, couldn't help but feel youthful and invigorated.
However, when he heard Chu Shaotian call her He Bi, he suddenly realized that she was the one favored by the Crown Prince. Futian silently praised: this prince has good taste!
He stepped forward with a smile and naturally said to He Bi, "Miss He Bi, I am Futian. Have you heard of me?"
He Bi was taken aback. Why would Futian come looking for me? Isn't he Guan Yue's master? He's also an enemy of Dean Kintian.
But He Bi didn't hesitate and immediately responded warmly, "Uncle Futian, you are Guan Tian's master and an old acquaintance of our Dean Kintian. How could I not know you?"
Futian laughed heartily and said, "Child, you have grown so outstanding; it truly makes us happy. That guy Nantian must have said a lot of bad things about me, right?"
He Bi seized the opportunity to act coy and said, "Uncle Futian, you can't keep bringing up those old grievances. Right now, Guan Tian and I have a very good relationship. You can't let that affect us!"
Futian, the seasoned veteran, immediately understood from He Bi's words that Guan Tian was actually Guan Yue. Although he felt a deep shock, he was even more pleased and excited.
He nodded repeatedly and said, "Alright, for the sake of your friendship, let's let go of the past between me and that guy Nantian."
Hearing these words from Futian, tears welled up in He Bi's eyes. She knew that Nantian had been worried about Futian's revenge for many years.
However, He Bi did not know the exact reason behind it.
At that time, Nantian and Futian had sworn to deal with Nantian because he had secretly fathered He Bi, tarnishing Mita's beautiful feelings for Tai Shi Pian Pian, leading people to believe that it was Mita who caused Tai Shi Pian Pian's death, which resulted in an immediate fallout.
But many years later, Nantian was the first to reconcile with Futian, stating that he would no longer pursue the matter.
In fact, Futian had come to terms with it as well. The mistake of Nantian stemmed from his complicated feelings for Tai Shi Pian Pian, which led him to drink excessively and engage in an inappropriate relationship with a concubine. Therefore, Futian Shangren had long since forgiven him.
Excitedly, He Bi turned to Futian and said, "Uncle Futian, come with me. I’ll take you to see Guan Tian's girlfriend."
Chu Shaotian quickly interjected, " He Bi, we just went there. Huangfu Jiayin and Naijia have both been missing for several days. We don’t know who did it, but Elder Lan Xuelei is very anxious."
He Bi gasped in shock, "They’re missing? How could this happen? Were they in our academy? Have we found out anything? Who has the audacity to come to our academy and abduct people?"
Chu Shaotian grimaced and replied, "We haven't figured it out yet. All the elders are mobilized. After all, they are good friends of Guan Tian."
Anxiously, He Bi said, "We should inform Little Ancestor Saint. He needs to step in; others are bullying us right here in our academy. We need to teach them a lesson!"
Upon hearing that both of them mentioned that Huangfu Jiayin and Naijia were good friends of Guan Yue, and now they were missing, Futian asked, "Why did these two go missing?"
With anger on her face, He Bi replied, "It must be someone targeting our Gentlewoman Sect. I will not let them get away with this."
Worriedly, Chu Shaotian said, "Could it be aimed at Guan Tian? Since they wouldn’t dare confront him directly, they might be taking their anger out on her friends?"
He Bi thought for a moment and immediately recalled Fire Red Girl, Hu Hui, and Little Red Fish, feeling an intense anger rise within her. She resolved to capture the culprits who had taken Huangfu Jiayin and Naijia!
Futian, witnessing the situation, wanted to use his intelligence to help find Huangfu Jiayin and Naijia.
Regarding the sudden events, Futian Shangren was confident that he had some skills to solve the case.
He Bi was surprised to hear Futian Shangren's self-recommendation and quickly expressed her gratitude. However, she did not truly believe that Futian could contribute anything significant. After all, at Dragon Lake Academy, there were many heroes and talents; who among them was not stronger than Futian?
Chu Shaotian genuinely hoped that Futian Shangren could find Huangfu Jiayin and Naijia because he was quite familiar with both of them and held a very favorable impression of them. These two lovely girls should not be harmed.
Futian settled into a guest room at Dragon Lake Academy.
Accompanied by Chu Shaotian, he went to Huangfu Jiayin's dormitory. Following the scent of the two girls, he arrived at the last place where Huangfu Jiayin and Naijia had gone missing.
He carefully examined the surroundings and pondered for a long time before concluding that the perpetrator had emerged from Great Dragon Pool River and abducted the two girls not far from the riverbank. The suspect was approximately nine feet tall, weighed around one hundred ninety pounds, had unusually large feet, and his left hand was stronger than his right. He had six fingers on his left hand and was particularly adept at underwater stealth movements. Moreover, his cultivation level should be at the peak of Eternal Realm.
He Bi listened to Futian's deductions with a mix of belief and skepticism.
She immediately reported this matter to Lan Xuelei.
Blue Demon Lei was already overwhelmed by this issue when he heard that Guan Yue's master had arrived at Dragon Lake Academy and had identified the characteristics of the suspect. He rushed over immediately.
Upon seeing Lan Xuelei approach, Futian felt the thick Vital Energy Fluctuation emanating from her. Even without activating Origin Energy, Futian Shangren found it difficult to withstand the pressure that Lan Xuelei naturally exuded.
Thus, as Lan Xuelei kept her distance, Futian spoke up: "Who approaches?"
Lan Xuelei blushed inexplicably and replied, "Futian Shangren, I am Lan Xuelei, a disciple of Master Uncle. Futian Shangren is above me; please allow me to pay my respects."
Futian quickly stopped her: "Heroine, do not be so formal with an old man. Please rise."
Lan Xuelei was a straightforward person and immediately asked Futian Shangren about the situation of the suspect.
Futian shared all his on-site analysis conclusions with Lan Xuelei, mentioning that the individual often lived in water, which made his skin extremely pale. Additionally, he noted that the suspect's hands were of different sizes and that he had particularly large feet.
Lan Xuelei felt a surge of excitement and promptly issued a tracking order through the intelligence system of Dragon Lake Academy.
The tracking order specifically stated:
The suspect is male, approximately nine feet tall, weighing around one hundred ninety pounds. He has unusually large feet, hands of different sizes, and his left hand has six fingers. His skin is extremely pale, and he is particularly skilled in underwater activities.
Anyone who discovers a suspicious person should report immediately.
Lan Xuelei personally wrote the tracking order and arranged for its distribution.
Indeed, three days later, a report came in: there had been multiple sightings of such an individual near the riverbank by Azure Peak Sect. This person often moved in the river, and his physical characteristics closely matched those described in the tracking order.
As usual, Lan Xuelei planned to leave his clone to take care of his sister while he went out himself.
He quickly brought Futian Shangren and several Senior Cultivators, including Lu Ziang, to the riverbank near Azure Peak Sect as indicated by the informant.
At the riverbank, Futian immediately began his search.
He scoured the entire beach and then repeatedly rolled in the water. After about three hours, he finally concluded his search as night fell, still feeling unsatisfied.
Lan Xuelei anxiously watched him, waiting for his conclusion.
After a moment of thought, Futian Shangren said to Lan Xuelei, "There is a massive base underwater; it is very well constructed with many facilities. It seems to have been operating here for many years, with at least a history of over a thousand years. I entered the base but did not find any captured girls because it is simply too vast inside. However, there are many Disciples practicing there, most of whom are Senior Cultivators. It appears this is a very hidden stronghold established by some terrifying force. But only one person frequently comes and goes—our suspect."
Lan Xuelei was immediately shocked and exclaimed, "Who could have established a base underwater over a thousand years ago? There are many people inside, but only one comes and goes? What kind of organization could this be?"
Futian added, "This base is established two hundred feet underwater, making it very concealed. The entrances and exits are equipped with powerful formations. If we're not careful, we could be discovered. It seems that if Huangfu Jiayin and Naijia are indeed inside, they would be in grave danger."
"Then let's hurry down to rescue them," Lan Xuelei said anxiously.
Futian replied seriously, "Blue Heroine, the underwater formations are dense, and their base is extremely hidden. If we recklessly go down and trigger the mechanisms, countless warriors from their base could swarm out. The consequences would be unimaginable. These powerful warriors could easily wipe out some empires on the surface."
Lan Xuelei asked in confusion, "Are there really such terrifying Disciples underwater? If so, how did you manage to enter?"
"The Old Man has considerable knowledge of formations and can use them to protect himself, so he won't alert the Disciples in the underwater base."
After hearing Futian's explanation, Lan Xuelei immediately said, "Since you have a formation for protection, then please protect me as well. I want to go down and take a look."
Futian awkwardly replied, "The Old Man's Living Form Array can only maintain a size of about ten feet. It might be inconvenient if Blue Heroine accompanies me."
Lan Xuelei insisted, "Ten feet is enough. Please take me down to see; otherwise, I won't feel at ease."
Lan Xuelei arranged for her Disciple to hide nearby and then submerged into the water with Futian Shangren.
Once they were underwater, Lan Xuelei was soaked completely, her curves becoming apparent, revealing the youthful beauty of an eighteen-year-old girl. This made Futian's heart race.
