He'd rather run than be turned into a cannon fodder for the broken engagement.

Leng Huan was certainly not stupid.

They bought some common elixirs, medicines, food, and other necessities, and finally boarded the Spirit Horned Carriage, heading east in the midday sun.

If he had felt a little heartache over the spirit stones before, Leng Huan was now extremely grateful.

In a lush, mountainous forest, they unexpectedly encountered a strange group of people.

"get off!"

"I'm talking about you!"

Hearing the gruff shouts, Leng Huan was certain that the burly men in front of her were indeed yelling at them. She lowered her hand from her nose, her eyes darkening: "Who are you people?"

"Can't you tell it's a robbery?" The bearded man with a large knife slung over his shoulder pointed the blade at them with a "whoosh," and shouted, "Hurry up!"

Even though she's become a cultivator, people still rob her. That's outrageous!

Leng Huan, enraged, was about to unleash a burst talisman when Fu Xun, quick-witted and agile, stopped him: "Wait, Huan-ge! Something's wrong..."

Just then, a man emerged from the horned carriage behind the burly men. He was a middle-aged man dressed in fine clothes, looking like a manager. He pushed past the men and stood before them, uttering a light, airy voice that carried immense pressure: "Oh, so you're two handsome young men. Wonderful, wonderful..."

The look in his eyes was strangely appraising, as if he were assessing the goods. Fu Xun frowned, and Leng Huan got goosebumps.

This person is actually at the Foundation Establishment stage! This is the first time Leng Huan has faced the pressure of a Foundation Establishment cultivator. He felt his scalp tighten and his body feel heavy. Fu Xun, whose current cultivation is only at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, felt it even more clearly.

The two thought at the same time, "They're up to no good!"

Leng Huan's mind raced. She couldn't win, so she had to run away. With a determined look, she was about to grab Fu Xun and unleash a burst talisman, then use a wind-controlling talisman. But as she made her move, the steward waved his hand lightly. She didn't know what method he used, but she felt her head sink and she became dizzy. Finally, she heard Fu Xun next to her faint with a "thud."

"Boss, these two young men are exceptionally handsome, exquisite and beautiful as jade, tsk tsk tsk, they are truly top-notch!" The bearded man originally only wanted to rob them, but he changed his mind immediately upon seeing Leng Huan and Fu Xun's appearance.

The big man wasn't very cultured, and the phrase "face like jade" wasn't even an accurate description; he just thought he was damn good-looking.

The manager ignored him and laughed loudly, "Go, tie them up, but be careful not to hurt anyone. The higher-ups urgently need good goods, and this time they've got what they're looking for!"

"Yes, hehehe, this isn't the first time I've done this job, Manager Zhang, don't worry!"

"Boss, there's another dog here!"

"Woof woof woof! Woof!" Sang Biao nimbly jumped up and kicked the big man who was trying to grab it in the face, then quickly jumped off the carriage and darted into the dense forest.

It ran a long way and hid in the tall grass.

.

He didn't know how long he had been unconscious, but he was having a dream while he was in a deep sleep—a dream about his miserable senior year of high school, where his older sister, Leng Qing, was nagging him to study hard with his tutor.

She dreamt again of a gloomy, dilapidated temple, Granny Zhou, the little brat, Sang Biao... and finally, a sea of ​​blood. Heartbroken in the dream, she opened her eyes in a daze, blinked her wet eyelashes, and then suddenly opened her eyes wide, meeting Fu Xun's gaze.

"Where am I..." She reached up to wipe her eyes, only to find herself bound tightly!

Leng Huan: !

Forgetting his lingering fear, he saw that Fu Xun was also bound hand and foot, and he shushed him.

"Brother Huan, don't be afraid. We're in a room in a courtyard. I woke up an hour earlier than you." He had been pretending to sleep, observing the surroundings. He only opened his eyes when he saw Leng Huan move.

Leng Huan nodded. He had only been captured, but he was still alive, so there was no need to panic.

The room was dimly lit. She looked out the window; there was no sunlight or moonlight, it was the dead of night.

Just then, a soft, sweet female voice came from another corner of the room: "Were you also kidnapped?"

There were other people too!

Hearing the sound, Leng Huan laboriously turned over with her hands tied behind her back. Using the dim light, she looked towards the source of the sound. After a while, her eyes adjusted to the darkness, and she finally saw that there were several beautiful girls in the corner!

She asked softly, "You too? What exactly happened?"

A soft, gentle female voice sighed, "We're complete strangers; we were all kidnapped. We arrived two days before you, and we heard they're going to capture more people. From what we've heard, it seems they're going to sell us to Dongjun... to be used as furnace cauldrons..."

As she said this, a girl couldn't help but flinch in fear and began to sob softly.

Depend on!

Leng Huan was furious: "No, we're both men, men!"

The owner of the soft, sweet voice appeared quite beautiful in the darkness. Upon closer inspection, it became clear that her appearance didn't match her voice at all; she was actually stunningly beautiful with delicate features. Leng Huan secretly stared at her parting, sexy lips for a long time—she was absolutely gorgeous!

———This is the one Leng Huan really likes.

The other two girls standing next to each other are both stunning beauties in their own way!

And what's more, everyone here is actually a Qi Refining stage cultivator!

Damn! Those people really know how to pick their targets; they're all beautiful Qi Refining stage cultivators!

Hearing Leng Huan's words, the soft voice sighed again: "You don't know, those people said that as long as you are good-looking, it doesn't matter if you are male or female."

day!

Could it be another gay guy from somewhere?! Get lost!

Leng Huan was really fed up. Why is it that no matter if you're a man or a woman, you're always the object of people's desires?

Fu Xun remained calm, thinking that going to Dongjun was not out of the question, but he didn't know where this place was. He asked, "Where exactly is this place?"

The woman's voice replied, "This is in the suburbs of Dongjun City, in a secluded and hidden courtyard."

Good, we've arrived in Dongjun! It seems they've been dizzy for several days.

Leng Huan cursed the bandits' ancestors in his heart, then suppressed his thoughts and asked, "Miss, where are you from? If you leave, are you going home?"

Upon hearing this, everyone stirred slightly, and a female voice shushed them, informing Leng Huan and the others of some basic information.

It turned out that they had all been robbed while out and about. Besides the disciple of a small family, there was also a young lady from a powerful family. And the girl who spoke was actually a young lady from a small family in Dongling City.

A soft, sweet female voice asked, "Gentlemen, my surname is Xu, and my given name is Huanqing. May I ask your names?"

"My name is Leng Huan, and this is Yin Xun."

Leng Huan, tired of his awkward position, simply lay down and circulated his spiritual energy to relieve the soreness and numbness caused by the acupoint striking. Fu Xun was leaning against the wall; fortunately, only his hands were bound behind his back.

After they had rested, Leng Huan asked again, "Do you still have spiritual energy? Are you injured?"

Xu Huanqing shook her head: "We're not injured, it's just that our cultivation levels are too low. I'm afraid only the two of you have higher cultivation levels. There are more than a dozen guards in the outer courtyard, all of them at the mid-to-late stage of Qi Refining."

This is why they dare not act rashly.

Leng Huan checked his body; his meridians were clear and his spiritual energy was circulating normally. He looked at Fu Xun and asked, "A-Xun, how are you feeling?"

Fu Xun shook his head: "I'm fine, but I dare not make any rash moves. It's around 7 PM now, and people outside haven't rested yet."

The meaning was to wait. Leng Huan understood that it was better to wait until the moon was dark and the wind was high before looking for an opportunity.

"Let me untie the rope for you." Fortunately, it was just an ordinary rope; these Qi Refining novices didn't dare to use it seriously.

Leng Huan crawled towards Fu Xun with difficulty, sweating profusely before finally kneeling up. Fu Xun turned her back and tried to raise the knot in her hand. She bit the knot and tried to pull it, but couldn't budge it. She cursed inwardly.

The rope was tied very tightly! She persistently gripped the knot and used all her strength, finally managing to untie one loop after a long time. It turned out the thief was quite skilled at tying ropes; it was a compound knot.

-

"Pah..." Leng Huan untied the last knot and spat out a mouthful of dirty saliva. The rope was filthy, and he didn't know what it was for, but it smelled of mud and fish. "I still need to untie the ropes on your body." Leng Huan rested for a moment and then continued to untie the ropes binding Fu Xun's arms and upper body.

Just then, perhaps someone outside heard the noise, footsteps approached their house.

"Hey! What's going on? Let's go check it out..."

Everyone in the house: !!!
