Just as she was about to curse, Yulin's peripheral vision caught a glimpse of a black bird flying overhead. Instantly, her alarm bells rang, and she slapped her waist storage pouch. A magical artifact appeared in her hand, which she tossed into the air. The artifact rapidly enlarged, resembling a glass bowl that encapsulated the two of them.
"Return to Truth, gather!"
With a low call, the artifact shrank again, blending seamlessly with the surrounding scenery, causing their traces to vanish in an instant. The artifact, Return to Truth, was a gift from her father for emergencies; unless a Nascent Soul expert personally investigated, it would be nearly impossible to detect.
Having completed this, a white figure descended from the sky, radiating a sharp sword intent as it landed on the ground.
"Master Uncle!"
The Outer Sect Disciples following behind all knelt down, trembling in fear.
Xiao Qiuyu did not look at them; instead, she surveyed the area and released a tracking Spirit Bird. She pointed at the bird's head and closed her eyes.
The Spirit Bird flapped its wings twice and soared into the sky, circling around as if lost before finally transforming into specks of starlight and dissipating into the air. The tracking Spirit Bird could only pursue when its target was present; if the target was absent, it would automatically vanish.
Xiao Qiuyu looked at the group before her and coldly asked, "Have you seen Yulin?"
"No, we haven't seen her!"
The group shook their heads frantically.
"We've seen Master Uncle!"
Ergou Tau climbed up from the ground and smiled ingratiatingly at Xiao Qiuyu. "Master Uncle, we were just training here."
"Training?"
Xiao Qiuyu's brows furrowed sharply.
"Yes."
Ergou Tau smiled flatteringly. "The disciples just broke through to Foundation Establishment and came out to practice."
"Oh?"
Xiao Qiuyu raised an eyebrow. "Then why did I see you trying to send him to the Punishment Hall?"
"It’s a misunderstanding! It’s all a misunderstanding!"
Ergou Tau chuckled awkwardly. "We’re all fellow disciples; we were just joking."
"Yes, yes, just kidding!" A group of people behind nodded in agreement.
"Oh?" Xiao Qiuyu looked at them, her expression calm. "I had no idea that jokes could be made among fellow disciples."
"This..." The group exchanged glances, unsure of how to respond.
Xiao Qiuyu's expression turned cold. "The rules of our sect state that you must not bully fellow disciples. Do you treat the rules as mere decorations?"
"We wouldn't dare!" The group knelt down in unison, trembling with fear.
"Have you seen Yulin?" Xiao Qiuyu asked again.
"No, we haven't." The group shook their heads vigorously.
"Really not?" Xiao Qiuyu pressed on.
"Really not!" They all replied in unison, their tone firm.
"Very well." Xiao Qiuyu nodded, her fingertips drawing a few strokes in the air. A white talisman appeared before her, and with a flick of her finger, it flew out and stuck to each person.
"This talisman will follow you," Xiao Qiuyu said, her voice icy. "If I find out that you have had any contact with Yulin..." She let out a cold snort, and the group felt an overwhelming pressure descend upon them, making it hard to breathe.
"Get lost!" Xiao Qiuyu waved her sleeve and left, leaving the group slumped on the ground, still shaken.
"Damn it!"
Ergou Tau got up from the ground and scanned the surroundings, but he didn't see any sign of Fish Thief.
"Go look under the hillside!"
Everyone took to their swords and flew towards the base of the hill.
However, they searched the entire hillside and still couldn't find any trace of Fish Thief.
"Damn it!"
Ergou Tau's face turned pale with anger: "If I run into him again, I will make sure his parents won't recognize him!"
"Wait a minute."
Suddenly someone spoke up: "Wasn't that a woman just now?"
"What?"
Everyone turned to look at him.
"Just now, the one who rolled down with Fish Thief seemed to be a woman."
"How is that possible!"
The others responded with certainty: "How could there be a woman here?"
