370 The Disciples Who Went Missing For No Reason

If a few disciples went missing, then so be it. Cultivation was difficult to fight against the heavens, and fighting with others was a very normal thing. In the cultivation world, it was very common to die because one’s skills were inferior, not to mention if they were mere outer sect disciples.

It was a big deal for inner sect disciples to go missing for no reason. No one could find them, dead or alive. After some investigation, they found out that the number of missing disciples recently was a little high, several times more than in previous years.

No matter how high or low their cultivation was, these disciples all had a common characteristic. It was as if they had evaporated from the world and could no longer be found.

The most important thing was that disciples from other sects had also gone missing. When all these strange things were linked together, this matter became unusual.

The Second Elder’s revealed a complex expression. He asked, “Could it be that those disciples are dead?”

Yao Tianchen shook his head and replied, “No one knows what happened exactly. Someone from the Misty Cloud Sect sent me a message and asked us to help them keep an eye on this strange matter if our Valley of Medicine Masters’ disciples are outside.”

But most of the Valley of Medicine Masters disciples had been called back to the sect, and in this matter, the Valley of Medicine Masters was the least affected one.

The Second Elder was still in a state of shock. He said, “We were trapped by the Five Poison Sect earlier. It seems that misfortune may be a blessing in disguise. Our disciples are safe and sound.”

Although he said that, Yao Tianchen was still a little worried, “I’m afraid these two incidents are closely linked. We also have to pay more attention to this matter. Although it’s not our turn yet, if we let our guard down, we won’t even know when a great disaster is going to befall us.”

“Valley Master’s words make sense. If someone is secretly behind this, we must find them. Otherwise, the danger will be too great.”

There was no such thing as an impervious wall in the world. Soon, the news of disciples from other sects going missing also spread to the ears of the people in the valley.

“What’s going on this year? First, the Five Poison Sect kept looking for trouble. Then, it didn’t stop for long, and people from the other sects went missing one after another. Did we offend the Tai Sui?”

“We’re all cultivators. Why are you so superstitious? I think there must be a demon behind this.”

“It’s so scary that those disciples disappeared for no reason. Could it be that they’ve already met with a mishap and even their bones can’t be found?”

“I’m considered lucky. I was originally out on a mission. If it wasn’t for the valley master urgently calling me back, I’m afraid I would have been one of the missing people.”

All the major sects were investigating this matter, but there was still no clue. It was as if there was a pair of invisible hands manipulating everything. Although the Five Poison Sect no longer pressed them, the atmosphere in the Valley of Medicine Masters was still tense.

No matter what the situation in the valley was, it didn’t affect Ye Xuan. What was strange was that A’tian said he was going to get the medicine but didn’t return.

Ye Xuan was waiting in the room. The jade pendant he was wearing flashed with a dim light, and his expression changed slightly.

He hurriedly went to the pharmacy to ask but was told that they had not seen A’tian at all. It was as if such a big person had disappeared into thin air.

When Li Mao received the news, he immediately rushed over. “Fellow Daoist Ye, don’t worry. I’ve already sent someone to find Brother A’tian. There are many bewildering formations in the valley. Perhaps he accidentally entered by mistake. He should be fine.”

The Valley of Medicine Masters had precious spiritual plants, so they had set up an array to protect them. The other disciples in the valley were used to it, but A’tian’s cultivation was not high, so he would not wander around. He was familiar with the road to the pharmacy and had been there several times before.

However, when the news came, they searched all over the valley but could not find A’tian. They even sent people to the forbidden area to check, but there was still no trace of him. It was as if the large living person had disappeared into thin air.

Even Yao Tianchen and the others were alarmed.

“Could it be that A’tian had come into contact with an array and accidentally fell outside the Valley of Medicine Masters?”

It wasn’t that Li Mao hadn’t thought of this possibility. He had sent the disciples to search the surrounding area, but they didn’t even see a ghost, let alone a person.

“How can such a big living person just disappear into thin air like that?”

Thinking of the recent rumors in the valley that disciples from all the major sects had gone missing, everyone’s heart couldn’t help but sink. Could it be that even they couldn’t escape the disaster, and now it was the Valley of Medicine Masters’ turn?

A’tian had been brought here by Ye Xuan, and now that something had happened to him in the Valley of Medicine Masters, their expressions were not very pleasant.

The disciples of the other sects couldn’t be found, and A’tian’s cultivation was not high, so the possibility of his survival was even smaller.

Seeing Ye Xuan staring at the jade in his hand in a daze, Li Mao felt that it looked familiar.

“A’tian seems to have something similar to this jade pendant. Don’t worry, we’ll definitely find Brother A’tian.”

Li Mao didn’t want to disturb Ye Xuan, so he left after saying a few words of comfort. Ye Xuan watched them leave, and after making sure that there was no one around, he mumbled something, and a complicated spell flowed out of his mouth.

The jade pendant floated in the air as if it was supported by magical power. It was a magic weapon. A’tian’s cultivation was not high, and although Ye Xuan wanted to help, he could not be so ambitious and go overboard, so he could only plan slowly.

In order to prevent any accidents, he gave A’tian the other jade pendant, which was a pair with his. Ye Xuan’s jade pendant was the mother pendant, while A’tian received the child pendant.

The jade pendant didn’t need any cultivation, just a little power, and it could block the attack of a person who was at the peak of the sky rank. Ye Xuan could also sense it through the mother pendant and use it to communicate, which was very convenient.

The dim light just now was the signal from the pendant. Unfortunately, he was too late and couldn’t find A’tian.

“Young Master, be careful!”

A’tian’s voice came from the jade pendant. He sounded extremely panicked, and there were also noisy footsteps. The footsteps probably belonged to A’tian.

Ye Xuan frowned. He wanted to continue listening, but A’tian stopped abruptly. There was no more movement. The silence spread and it made Ye Xuan feel a little flustered.

Be careful?

What exactly did A’tian want him to be careful of?

Ye Xuan was sure that there was another person with A’tian at that time. Even if there was no movement, he could still catch the faint breathing sound. Only a high-level master could do this.
