After Si Yu stepped out of the door, she stayed out all afternoon. Shen Ying got worried and asked Radish and Yu Hong to go out to search for her, but none of them came back even after the sun set and Lonemoon returned. She wondered whether something had happened.
The more Shen Ying thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. Could it be the masochist became angry after getting rejected and decided to kidnap them?
“Go and find out if anything related to the young master of the Yin Family happened today,” Lonemoon instructed one of the girls. He too felt that something was amiss.
Within five minutes, the disciple came back running through the door. “Sect Master, the young master of the Yin Family got into a scuffle with someone this afternoon. They got into a huge fight. I heard it’s the people from the Soul Chasing Tower.”
“Soul Chasing Tower!” Lonemoon exclaimed, standing up immediately.
“Who are they?” Yi Qing asked.
“They’re an organization that’s neither good nor evil.” Lonemoon frowned. “The people in that organization are proficient in the hidden walking technique. Even high-level cultivators can’t easily detect them. I’ve heard that their information network expands across the Three Azure Realms and they specialize in the private sale of secrets from various sects. As long as you can afford it, you can find out what you want to. Their main building is located in the west of the city.”
“What did they capture our disciples for?” Yi Qing frowned.
“Maybe the girls won a huge sum of money, causing others to become envious!” Lonemoon tutted. He twirled the flute in his hands. “But even if they’re jealous, they should think about their own capabilities. Do they really think our Invincible Sect can be so easily bullied?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned to Shen Ying and said, “Shen Ying, Yi Qing and I will make a trip to the Soul Chasing Tower. We’ll be right back.”
“Yeah, okay.” Shen Ying nodded. “But Little…”
Before she could finish, however, Lonemoon and Yi Qing disappeared out the door and headed for the west of the city. They were ready to sort things out.
“…”
A while later…
“Little White.”
“Yes, Sect Master.”
“When Little Red and Radish went out, didn’t they say they were headed for the east of the city?”
“I think… they did.”
“Then who are Lonemoon and Yi Qing trying to find?”
“…”

Shen Ying had just been thinking about whether she should chase after Lonemoon and Yi Qing when somebody appeared outside the door. This person was wearing the standard blue robe worn by people from the Yin Family. He looked about forty to fifty years old and very familiar.
“Greetings, Sect Master Yi!” The blue-robed man bowed to Shen Ying.
“Huh?” Shen Ying hesitated a moment before remembered the matter of being blacklisted. She quickly regained her composure and said, “Oh, you’re referring to me. Yes, I’m Sect Master Yi.”
“I am the shopkeeper of the Yin Family’s Zheng Feng Restaurant,” the man hurriedly began, looking very anxious. “My patriarch has instructed me to invite you, Sect Master Yi, to the Yu Family’s house in Huayuan City.”
“The Yu Family?” Shen Ying’s expression went black. “Go where and for what?”
“Our young master, Si Yu, and Miss Yu Hong are all at the Yu Family’s house!”
“What?” Weren’t they kidnapped by people from the Soul Chasing Tower?
“I am also not too sure of what exactly is going on, but it does not seem like a small matter. My patriarch is on the way over right now. If we are late…”
