Chapter 340: Kidnapped

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

There was an outhouse behind the dining hall. After Fu Zheng brought Ling there, he politely backed away and waited outside.

The two guards were also standing guard outside.

In the dining hall, although Xiao Jin was talking to Duke Zhenguo, he would occasionally glance at the courtyard to make sure that the two children were fine.

When he looked again, he did not see Ling. He sprang up from his chair and walked out.

When Duke Zhenguo saw Xiao Jin suddenly stand up, he thought that something had happened so he quickly stood up as well.

“Ji, where’s Ling and Fu Zheng?”

Ji replied when he heard his father, “Father, Younger Sister said that she ate too much and her stomach felt uncomfortable. She wanted to go to the outhouse. She was too embarrassed to tell Father, so she went with Brother Fu Zheng.”

“When did they go?”

“Just now.” When Ji saw that Xiao Jin’s expression was not right, he asked worriedly, “Father, what’s wrong?”

Xiao Jin shook his head. “It just so happens that I’m going to the outhouse too. Ji, wait here with Lord Duke for Father to come back.”

Ji nodded obediently. “Okay.”

Xiao Jin strode in the direction of the outhouse. Just as he reached the place, he saw Fu Zheng and the guards waiting outside the door.

“Your Highness, why are you here?” Fu Zheng was a little surprised to see Xiao Jin.

“Ling has not come out yet?”

“Her stomach might not be feeling well. She told me to wait a little longer.”

Xiao Jin nodded slightly, but he raised his voice. “Ling, are you done yet?”

There was a slight movement inside, but there was no answer.

Xiao Jin frowned. “Ling? Ling, answer me. If you don’t answer, Father is coming in.”

There was no response from the outhouse.

Xiao Jin’s expression darkened. He turned around and walked in. He pushed open the door of the outhouse, but Ling was nowhere to be seen.

Fu Zheng’s expression changed drastically when he saw that Ling was gone.

Xiao Jin looked around and realized that the outhouse was built against the wall. A person could climb over from the top of the outhouse to the other side of the wall.

“Someone go and inform Lord Duke to immediately seal off all the entrances and exits of Duke Zhenguo’s Residence. No one is allowed to leave without my order. And I mean no one!”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

“You guys, go to the surrounding courtyards and search immediately. Move fast.”

Fu Zheng responded quickly and turned around to run out of the courtyard to look for Ling.

Xiao Jin leaped over the wall. Sure enough, he found one of Ling’s shoes at the foot of the wall.

Xiao Jin gripped the shoe tightly and quickly searched the courtyard.

When Duke Zhenguo heard the guard’s report, he immediately ordered all the entrances and exits to be sealed. He even ordered people to keep watch over the doggie doorways. He sent all his guards to keep watch and asked everyone in Duke Zhenguo’s Residence to search for Ling.

The Young Princess of Prince Qi’s Manor had gone missing in Duke Zhenguo’s Residence. This made the servants of Duke Zhenguo’s Residence panic.

If they couldn’t find her and Prince Qi and his Consort wanted to take revenge, the first ones to suffer would be themselves, the innocent servants!

Therefore, they did not dare to be negligent and immediately mobilized all the servants in the residence to look for the girl.

When the Old Mistress of Duke Zhenguo’s Residence received the news, she had just finished lunch. When she found out that Su Ying’s daughter was missing, she almost wanted to clap her hands. This was retribution!

However, when she found out that the girl was lost in Duke Zhenguo’s Residence, her face immediately darkened.

“That woman is a lunatic. If we can’t find her, she will destroy the whole residence. What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and look for her!”

Everyone in Duke Zhenguo’s Residence was mobilized to search for Ling, but it was as if Ling had suddenly evaporated. Xiao Jin did not forget to check the dry well in the abandoned courtyard, but he still could not find Ling.

“Lord Duke, we have searched the back courtyard, but we didn’t see the Young Princess.”

“We have searched the front courtyard, but we didn’t see her either.”

Duke Zhenguo’s expression was also very unsightly. Since the girl had gone missing in Duke Zhenguo’s Residence, this matter was inextricably linked to Duke Zhenguo’s Residence.

“Don’t tell me that people can fly out!”

After Xiao Jin sent someone to pass on the message, Duke Zhenguo not only sent people to guard all the entrances and exits from the inside but also from the outside. Unless the other party immediately took the girl out of the residence after capturing her, there was no way she could have left the premises.

However, Duke Zhenguo had already summoned his people to be questioned. His people reported that during that period of time, no one had entered or left Duke Zhenguo’s Residence, which meant that the person must still be within Duke Zhenguo’s Residence.

Xiao Jin’s face was ominous as he brought Ji to search every corner of Duke Zhenguo’s Residence. From the roof beams to the dry wells, he covered every place he could think of in a sweeping search, but he still could not locate the girl.

Where on earth did she go?

Meanwhile, in Mountain Roaming Temple, the woman in red saw Su Ying running into the meditation room and turned around to go after her.

However, after entering, she realized that there was no one inside at all.

She narrowed her eyes and looked around warily. However, the meditation room was only this big, and there was only one door to enter and exit from. Where could she possibly hide?

Just as the woman in red was about to retreat out of the room, a figure suddenly appeared out of thin air and stabbed the dagger in her hand toward the red-robed woman’s kidney location.

The red-robed woman’s eyes widened as she quickly retreated. With a wave of her wide sleeve, a bunch of venomous snakes shot out.

Su Ying, who was wearing a gas mask, swung the dagger in her hand, and the heads of those venomous snakes were sliced in half.

The woman in red spun around, and a large plume of red smoke surged toward Su Ying.

The corners of Su Ying’s lips curled up icily under her mask as she charged straight into the toxic smoke.

The woman in red was astonished to see that Su Ying wasn’t afraid of the toxic smoke at all.

The water pipe in her hand turned into a sharp dagger with a flick and stabbed toward Su Ying. Su Ying gave a scornful sneer and chopped off the woman’s dagger in one move. Su Ying’s dagger tip then pressed against the woman’s jugular.

The red-robed woman’s body quickly stiffened. She wanted to retreat, but Su Ying grabbed her hair bun.

Her long hair fell down and Su Ying used her long hair as a rope to wrap around the woman’s neck several times.

“Argh!”

The red-robed woman’s eyes revealed a hint of fear. She struggled in an attempt to resist, but she simply couldn’t break free from Su Ying’s restraint. “Don’t test my patience. Speak! Who ordered you to come here?”

The red-robed woman felt the air in her chest depleting, and her eye whites began to show. Just as she was about to pass out, Su Ying released her grip slightly to give her a chance to catch her breath.

“How… dare you… dare you touch me. I… I am a member of the Red Demon Sect. How dare you… Ugh!” Before the woman could finish her sentence, Su Ying broke her neck with her own hair.

Su Ying released her hand and her face filled with hostility as she stepped on the woman’s face. “Red Demon Sect, is it? Very good!” She stomped her foot hard, and blood splattered everywhere.

The red toxic gas dispersed, and the young monk walked out of a meditation room. When he saw the corpse on the ground, he was so calm that he did not look like a child at all.

“Someone is paying us to take the life of Your Highness. We are only carrying out the task after accepting the money.”

“Who is it?”

“Only our Sect Master knows the employer. We have no way of knowing.”

“Go back and tell your Sect Master to wash his neck clean and await beheading..”
