Duan Chenfeng kept feeling that Yuan Xin was a little strange, but he couldn't tell what was strange about her. After a long day, he simply shook his head and returned to his own courtyard. After arriving at the courtyard, he closed the door as usual. He had just taken a few steps when a powerful pressure suddenly came from above, making him unable to breathe. Duan Chenfeng was a self-cultivator after all. He already understood that he had been ambushed.
Yuan Xin brought her daughter to the room. Xu Wanqing saw a masked man holding her father hostage and said in surprise,"Who are you? Let go of my father.”
Masked Man ignored Xu Wanqing and said to Yuan Xin,""How's the matter going?"
Yuan Xin glanced at her daughter and said guiltily,""He has already returned to the courtyard. You should keep your promise!”
"Good!" "Wait a little longer," the masked man said with a smile."I'll release him immediately after it's done."”
Duan Chenfeng quickly rolled into the grass and asked,""Who are you? Why did you ambush me?”
The black-clothed man ignored Duan Chenfeng's words and followed up with a palm strike. Duan Chenfeng knew that he was no match for his opponent, so he turned around and prepared to escape. He leaped up and flew towards the wall. In mid-air, another palm strike came at him. Duan Chenfeng didn't have time to dodge and it hit his chest. A mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth and fell on the grass below him before he fainted. The man in black held Duan Chenfeng in his arms and nodded at the man in black who landed on the ground. He then released a firework towards the sky. The firework was different from usual. It was very bright and loud, and it resounded throughout the entire sky.
In the room, after the masked man heard the signal, he let go of Xu Wentian, opened the door, and disappeared into the night sky. Yuan Xin put down her daughter and ran to her husband's side worriedly. She asked,"Wentian, are you alright?"
Xu Wentian shook his head and said,"I'm fine. Let's go and see how Chenfeng is doing."”
When the three of them arrived at Duan Chenfeng's courtyard, there was no one there. Xu Wentian saw some blood on the grass and said guiltily," I'm afraid Chen Feng has already…" He didn't finish his sentence, but Yuan Xin understood.
"Who are they? Why do they want to kill Chenfeng?”Yuan Xin said sadly.
When Xu Wanqing heard that the person just now was to kill Chenfeng, she lost control of her emotions and asked," Father, Mother, you mean Brother Chenfeng has already…" As she said this, her tears had already flowed out and dripped onto the ground.
Xu Wentian nodded and felt that there was no need to hide anything from his daughter. He said,"Yes, they seem to be here for the Purple Cloud Pendant.”At this point, he seemed to have thought of something and said to Xu Wanqing,"Qinger, does your brother Chenfeng have a jade pendant?”
With tears in her eyes, Xu Wanqing said sadly,"Yes, he does have a purple jade pendant.”
These words echoed in Xu Wentian's mind like a bolt from the blue. After a long while, he finally said a few words,"I'm afraid Chenfeng is really dead.”Those people had come for the Purple Cloud Pendant. He knew the importance of the Purple Cloud Pendant. Since they had confirmed that the Purple Cloud Pendant was with Duan Chenfeng, they would definitely kill him to silence him.
"Mother!" Xu Wanqing fell into Yuan's arms and cried bitterly. A boy who had treated her so well had left her so quickly. Her heart ached. Although they hadn't been together for a long time, she understood that Brother Chenfeng had gotten himself killed because of her. Other than guilt, she felt guilty.
Duan Chenfeng slowly opened his eyes and found that he was already tied up. He couldn't move his body at all. No matter how hard he tried, the rope wouldn't break. Instead, it became tighter and tighter. So, he sat quietly and waited for what was about to happen. At this moment, he heard the sound of waves hitting the hull and was a little surprised. The scenes from last night appeared in his mind again. Where were they taking me? Why didn't they just kill me? Or did they need something from me?
Just as Duan Chenfeng was letting his imagination run wild, a person walked into the cabin. He was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties. He had an ordinary appearance and was wearing a Daoist robe unique to cultivators. He smiled at Duan Chenfeng and said,"Are you hungry?"
Duan Chenfeng didn't answer him and asked,""Who are you? Where are you taking me?"
He smiled and said," It doesn't matter who I am. As for where I'm going, you'll know in a while."”After saying that, he ignored Duan Chenfeng and walked out of the cabin.
Another half a day passed. Duan Chenfeng felt very hungry, but he still persisted. It was now afternoon, and the person who appeared earlier appeared in the cabin again. He stretched out his hand, and the rope on Duan Chenfeng's body automatically untied. It released a five-colored light and instantly entered his body. Duan Chenfeng knew that this thing was a Celestial Artifact, a Celestial Artifact similar to the Immortal Binding Rope.
"Let's go!" He said to Duan Chenfeng indifferently.
Duan Chenfeng stood up and followed behind him. He asked in confusion,""Where are we going?"
"You'll know when you get out." The man smiled mysteriously.”
Duan Chenfeng followed behind him and walked out of the cabin to the deck. Then, he saw a small island. Other than the place in front of him where he could land, the rest of the place was filled with cliffs. He felt that this island was a little strange. It was already the freezing season, and there should not be lush plants on the island, but the plants on the island were still luxuriant and gave off a creepy feeling from time to time.
The man walked down the deck to the edge of the island. Duan Chenfeng followed him, but he couldn't help but ask,""Where is this place?"
That person smiled, as if he wasn't afraid that Duan Chenfeng would run away from him. He said,"Where is this place? Just look at the stone tablet next to it."
Duan Chenfeng followed his gaze and saw a huge stone tablet. There were only three blood-red words on the stone tablet-Life Lock Island.
