No cliff danger

While he was concentrating on studying a Medicinal Pill, a Feather Transformation Sect Disciple suddenly rushed over in a panic and shouted from outside the door.

"Sect Master, something terrible has happened! Elder Jue has been captured."

"What?" Qin Ming pushed open the door and asked hurriedly, "What is going on?"

"Sect Master, this is a letter left by a Martial Venerable at the Shadow Branch. This is also Elder Jue's Weapon." The Disciple held up a Weapon and handed a piece of parchment to Qin Ming.

Qin Ming's eyes narrowed. The Weapon in the Disciple's hand was indeed the one Qin Ming had gifted to Jue Wuya. He had a clear impression of this long sword, as he had traded it from the Third Young Master of the You Family in the Ancient Secret Realm.

Taking the parchment, Qin Ming scanned it quickly, and the more he read, the uglier his expression became.

"Shameless! They couldn't beat me, so they captured Elder Jue. The Martial Venerable of the Pill Alliance is truly shameless. As the saying goes, 'if the upper beam is not straight, the lower ones will go aslant.' It is precisely because the Pill Alliance has such Martial Venerables that it has become so corrupted."

Qin Ming breathed heavily, his eyes filled with intense Killing Intent. Last time, he had let him escape by luck. Instead of finding a place to hide, he had actually emerged again to stir up trouble.

Moreover, this time it was even more shameless. Since he couldn't beat him, he actually attacked his subordinates.

A dignified Martial Venerable actually attacking those below him—he really has lived in vain.

"This note says I must go to this location, otherwise they will kill Jue Wuya. The location recorded here must be an ambush. What should I do?"

Qin Ming felt restless. The note not only contained a detailed address but also a time limit. If he did not arrive by the specified time, they would kill Jue Wuya.

This also cut off any possibility of him seeking help from the Yang Family or the You Family.

"Sect Master, you absolutely cannot go! Since they want you to go and have set a time limit, it is clearly an ambush," the Disciple said anxiously. "We should gather everyone together before taking action."

Qin Ming waved his hand. "Since this is the enemy's plot, they have certainly taken these factors into account. I would like to bring along Old Ancestor Yang and Old Ancestor You, but there is not enough time for the back-and-forth."

He did not doubt for a moment that if he did not arrive by the specified time, the Martial Venerable of the Pill Alliance would certainly kill Jue Wuya.

To the Martial Venerable of the Pill Alliance, Jue Wuya's greatest value was to lure him there. If he did not go, it would prove the plan had failed, and Jue Wuya would lose his value.

"But Sect Master…" The Disciple was very anxious. He did not know what to do; if Qin Ming went to save him, Qin Ming would be in danger, and if he did not go, Elder Jue would be in danger.

"There are no 'buts.' He must be saved, and I will save him alone." After thinking about it, Qin Ming said firmly.

At the same time, he secretly regretted that he had only punched the Martial Venerable of the Pill Alliance in the chest at the time and had not followed up. If he had landed another punch to his head, Qin Ming did not believe that the Martial Venerable of the Pill Alliance would still be alive.

A Martial Venerable without a Power is truly terrifying. Even if he mobilized all of the Shadow, as long as the Martial Venerable did not want to show himself, it was almost impossible to find him.

He made up his mind this time that in the future, whenever he targeted an enemy, he would either not make a move at all, or he would try his best to eliminate them completely.

"You go back first and have all the Feather Transformation Sect Disciples come to the Secret Realm. I suspect this is only the beginning, and you will be in danger. For now, abandon the Shadow for a period. As long as we get past this hurdle, we will fight our way back." Qin Ming said decisively.

The Feather Transformation Sect was his life's work; he did not want the Feather Transformation Sect to suffer any losses, and he did not care if the Shadow was in a bit of chaos right now.
