Feng Ning smiled and said, "You're right."

He then recalled the details of that time.

"I noticed the fluctuations of my formation around me unintentionally. At first, it was an acceleration formation, and I knew it was one of you. Later, when Duan Menghua used the Two Elements Trapping Formation, I was certain it was her."

"The Yin-Yang Trapping Formation? Why don't I have that?"

Feng Ning shrugged. "No, there's only that one."

Yao Feibai also realized that his topic had gone astray.

"You go on."

“I sent a message to my master, asking him to come and save us. I went straight after him. When I caught up, Duan Menghua was already seriously injured. Two people were chasing her, or rather, they wanted to kidnap her.”

"Who?"

Feng Ning shook her head. "I don't know. I don't know their identities. I only know that the two men's surname is Chi, and... Duan Menghua should know them. Perhaps if we know Duan Menghua's true identity, we can find out where she went and who those two men are."

"His true identity?"

"Hmm, I suspect that Duan Menghua's background is not simple. These people either want to blackmail her or want to negotiate with her family. In short, they want to take her away alive. As long as they have a purpose, they shouldn't hurt her."

After a moment of silence, Yao Feibai continued, "Do you know where this family with the surname 'Chi' is from? I've never heard of anyone with the surname Chi in Changyang, nor have I heard of anyone with the surname Duan from any prominent family."

Having grown up in the royal family, they had some understanding of the various cities and the surnames of prominent families.

Indeed, I have never heard of these two surnames.

Feng Ning sighed, "I've never been to this place either, and as far as I know, there are no families with these two surnames in any other place."

Then, as if remembering something else, she said, "Do you remember Duan Menghua's behavior? She wasn't afraid of the Holy Feather Kingdom at all?"

"Seems to be!"

"So, has our investigation narrowed down a bit? At least based on this, Duan Menghua's family is definitely no less powerful than the royal family of the Holy Feather Kingdom."

“That makes sense. If you think about it that way, it should be easier to find. Leave this to me. I'll send someone to investigate first. You should focus on recovering from your injuries. I'll let you know as soon as I have any news.”

Feng Ning nodded. "Okay."

Afterwards, Feng Ning asked her about what had happened during her three months of slumber.

The elders all knew about this matter after she fell into a deep sleep.

After discussion among the elders, everyone agreed to help search for the Dragon Bone Flower and Duan Menghua's whereabouts while they were out.

Along with the sects and forces that were on good terms with the Tianxuan Sect, they also searched everywhere.

Three months have passed, and there is still no trace of them.

Especially with Feng Ning in a coma, the events of that time remain a mystery, and finding Duan Menghua is not so simple.

They don't even know who took them, so where are they supposed to look?

Fortunately, even though they didn't know, everyone tried their best to search and didn't give up.

As the master, Nian Zhao was naturally the most concerned about the Dragon Bone Flower. Whenever he heard of its whereabouts, he would personally go to find it.

I heard about the dragon bone flower and rushed over. It's been more than half a month since I left, so it should be time for me to come back soon.

The two chatted casually, exchanging information, and several hours had passed.

During this time, the deputy elder of the Alchemy Peak came once, checked her condition, and left without saying much.

Of course, the result was the same: his meridians were severed, and he could no longer cultivate.

Yao Feibai felt very bad after hearing this. "Don't worry, it's just a broken meridian. We'll find a way to fix it."

"Okay." Feng Ning replied with a smile and a nonchalant air.

Her demeanor left Yao Feibai somewhat puzzled; he couldn't tell if she was genuinely unconcerned or just putting on an act.

Just as it was getting dark, Nian Zhao finally returned, looking travel-worn.

Elder Yu from the Alchemy Peak was also involved.

Elder Jinghui of the Array Peak is still outside and cannot return for the time being. Ever since Elder Lezhan learned that such a genius of array formations had all his meridians severed, he has been in a slump.

He has been in seclusion for a long time and has not come out.

Others didn't have much of a relationship with her, so they didn't receive the message.

Of course, the most important person was Nian Zhao, who was the only one to receive the message, and he didn't have time to tell anyone else.

After receiving the news that Feng Ning had woken up, he rushed back without stopping.

The flying artifact was practically sparking as it flew back.

He rushed in, looking travel-worn, and saw Feng Ning on a recliner in the courtyard.

She slept peacefully and serenely with her eyes closed, like a fairy in a painting, so beautiful that one couldn't look away.

Her already fair face now had an added touch of sickly beauty, making her look so fragile that one dared not touch her.

Yao Feibai kept his promise and stayed by his side without moving an inch.

"Ning'er...you're really awake?"

His hands trembled slightly, and his steps became unsteady as he approached step by step.

They held their breath, as if afraid that breathing too heavily would shatter the dream.

Feng Ning was startled awake by the noise and groggily opened her eyes.

What came into view was a hazy black shadow.

The face was not clearly visible, but the figure was tall and resembled a man.

Startled, she instinctively yelled, "Yao Feibai! Are you looking for a beating?"

Then I heard a resentful voice from beside me, "I'm perfectly fine, what did I do to you again?"

She turned her head stiffly and saw Yao Feibai staring at her with an amused expression.

When Feng Ning saw his face clearly, she started stammering, "Y-you-you!"

She pointed at the dark figure opposite her, "Him! Him! Him!"

Yao Feibai nodded silently, "I can see."

She narrowed her eyes, and the blurry shadows gradually became clearer.

She gradually adjusted to the brightness, and most importantly, the dark figure in front of her was already right in front of her.

She looked at the person opposite her with a face full of surprise, "Master! You're back?"

Nian Zhao's voice trembled slightly as she said, "I'm back."

She looked unhappy. "Master, did you bring me anything to eat? I'm so hungry."

Nian Zhao turned to look at Yao Feibai, "Didn't you make her anything to eat?"

Yao Feibai said righteously, "I won't."

Nian Zhao was so angry she wanted to hit someone, so she picked up Feng Ning and carried her back into the house.

He didn't forget to turn back and say, "I'll settle the score with you later."
