Chapter 1281: Chapter 1279: Anxious Waiting

”Thank you for stepping in!”

Master Xiaoyunzi looked at the Presiding Elder and said.

”He helped the Miao Clan before, and besides, in this original world, the sole inheritor of my Witch God Bloodline acknowledges him as her master. Naturally, I must save him!”

The Presiding Elder replied directly.

Master Xiaoyunzi walked straight to Xiao Yifeng, gazed at him, and a trace of complex emotion flashed through his eyes.

”This day has finally arrived. Kid, suffering such severe injuries and experiencing failure for the first time is unbearable, isn’t it? This is a tribulation you must endure in life. But you have to push through it. Only by doing so can you reclaim the honor lost today and be reunited with your wife!”

Master Xiaoyunzi murmured to himself, addressing the unconscious Xiao Yifeng.

”Those women think you’re a nobody, but little do they know that you possess the Star Overlord Body. When you grow stronger and step into the Ancient Realm in the future, they’ll surely regret it!”

Master Xiaoyunzi chuckled softly, took out a green elixir, and fed it to Xiao Yifeng. Then, he cast two seals directly into Xiao Yifeng’s body.

”The Star Overlord Body... so that’s it!”

Meanwhile, inside Xiao Yifeng’s mind, Long Qian heard Master Xiaoyunzi’s words and suddenly understood everything.

”Well, now those women are going to eat their words. I’d love to see the look on their faces when they see this kid again. It’s bound to be entertaining!”

Long Qian muttered to himself, but no one heard him.

”Was he injured by someone from the Ancient Realm?”

The Presiding Elder asked Master Xiaoyunzi.

”Mm!”

Master Xiaoyunzi nodded.

”People from the Ancient Realm can already come here?”

The Presiding Elder furrowed his brows.

”They’ve been able to for a long time. However, for someone from the Ancient Realm to come here, a super-powerful individual must activate the Teleportation Array and open the Gate of Teleportation. Moreover, the Heaven and Earth Laws in this original world suppress their power by two-thirds, even if they manage to arrive here.”

Master Xiaoyunzi spoke calmly.

”The original world, the mother of the Ancient Realm, truly the birthplace of martial artists. What a pity...”

The Presiding Elder said softly, and a trace of complexity flickered in his eyes.

”This is all just the wheel of samsara. There’s no such thing as pity.”

Master Xiaoyunzi fixed his gaze on Xiao Yifeng and spoke.

Tianhai, Xiao Family Villa.

Ever since Xiao Yifeng pursued Ye Yaxin after hearing she’d been taken away, Hong Mei and the other women found it impossible to calm their restless hearts. This uneasiness spread through all of them like a shadow.

”How is it going?”

In the villa’s living room, Hong Mei looked at Lu Xueqing, who was holding a phone and dialing.

”Still unreachable; no one has answered the call the whole time!”

Lu Xueqing shook her head.

”Could it be something really happened to him??”

Hong Mei’s expression shifted faintly.

”Those five women should have the ability to traverse the skies, likely reaching the legendary Void-breaking Realm. Given Little Feng’s abilities, dealing with them is indeed quite difficult.”

Yan Ruyu said gravely.

”Then isn’t my brother-in-law in real danger? And where might my sister have been taken?”

Ye Yashi exclaimed worriedly, clasping her small hands tightly.

”Don’t worry too much; I believe the old man will be fine!”

Long Qianqian reassured.

”Right, that guy has such stubborn luck—he’s survived so many dangers before, and he’ll get through this one too. Let’s be patient and not lose our heads.”

Ji Ruxue spoke calmly, trying to settle the nerves of the other women.

In Yanjing, while working, Sun Ziyun suddenly snapped her pen’s tip. Her expression shifted.

”What’s going on? Why do I feel this inexplicable sense of dread? Could something have happened to him?”

Sun Ziyun muttered to herself, grabbed her phone, and immediately called Xiao Yifeng, but no one answered. After dialing ten or so times, the result was still the same: no answer.

”Did something really happen?”

Sun Ziyun’s face changed slightly.

At this moment, the office door suddenly burst open, and Zhang Xinlan, dressed in professional attire, hurried inside.

”What’s wrong, Xinlan?”

Sun Ziyun turned her gaze to Zhang Xinlan.

”Sister Ziyun, could you reach Brother Little Feng’s phone? Why can’t I get through at all? Also, my heart is pounding so fast; I feel an overwhelming sense of unease, as if something terrible happened to Brother Little Feng.”

Zhang Xinlan said frantically.

”You have the same feeling? I just experienced it too; I called him over ten times but couldn’t get through even once!”

Sun Ziyun said solemnly.

”What should we do now? What’s happened to Brother Little Feng?”

Zhang Xinlan asked with obvious panic and worry.

”Buy plane tickets, head to Tianhai, and go straight to his villa to check the situation!”

Sun Ziyun decisively declared.

Several hours later, Sun Ziyun and Zhang Xinlan arrived in Tianhai, heading directly to the Xiao Family Villa.

Inside the villa at the estate, the women looked at the newly arrived Sun Ziyun and Zhang Xinlan, their eyes flickering.

”Are you also Little Feng’s women?”

Hong Mei asked, looking at the two ladies. Most others hadn’t seen Sun Ziyun and Zhang Xinlan before.

”Mm!”

Sun Ziyun nodded lightly.

”These two—Sister Sun Ziyun, younger sister of the Sun Family patriarch from Yanjing’s Eight Great Families; and Zhang Xinlan, Brother Little Feng’s childhood friend!”

Yan Ruyu introduced them.

”What’s happened to Little Feng? We couldn’t reach him by phone, so we came here in person!”

Sun Ziyun asked urgently.

Upon hearing Sun Ziyun’s words, the women fell silent.

”Did something happen to Brother Little Feng?”

Zhang Xinlan asked abruptly, worry filling her gaze.

”Here’s the situation...”

Yan Ruyu recounted the events: ”This is where things stand now. We’ve been unable to contact Little Feng; all we can do is wait for updates.”

”What do we do now? Just wait like this? Should we contact the authorities?”

Sun Ziyun said anxiously.

”At this point, we can only wait. We must trust that Little Feng will be all right. Besides, this isn’t something the police can handle.”

Yan Ruyu spoke, and Sun Ziyun and Zhang Xinlan, joining the other women, began their desperate waiting.

Time passed; nightfall soon arrived.

Inside the villa at the estate, the women’s faces were all clouded with worry. As time dragged on without any news of Xiao Yifeng, their hearts became increasingly uneasy and agitated. They didn’t even touch their dinner.

”Sister Hong Mei, have something to eat!”

Yan Ruyu walked over to Hong Mei and said.

”I don’t have an appetite; I can’t eat!”

Hong Mei shook her head.
