C13 Innocent hijacking.

"Go visit Fu Yibai."

Du ShaoFu furrowed his brows, and he knew that he had to cultivate his cultivation technique as soon as possible. Stuffing the jade bottle and the two embroidered boxes under his arms, Du Shaofu decided to venture into the night to visit Fu Yibai and see if that old man knew where the Purple Cloud Rising Sun Scripture was.

Leaving the room, Du Shaofu headed straight towards the Martial Hidden Building.

There were guards and martial arts masters of the Du Family. But this was not a problem. In the veil of night, Du Shaofu easily slipped past them and sneaked past the many courtyards of the house, arriving at the Martial Hidden Building.

"How can I even hear the sound of the flute here? Where is it coming from?”

Just as he arrived outside the Martial Hidden Building, Du Shaofu could faintly hear the sound of a flute, playing a melody that he has been hearing recently. The sound from flute was smooth like a murmuring stream, yet crisp and cheerful like a clear brook. Its music was a curious melody, abruptly shifting between a soft, sweet melody and an angry bitter tone, like a lady pouring her heart out as she yearns for her lover.

The sound of the flute seemed to be getting louder and louder, as if it was slowly approaching from afar.

Although he was intrigued by this flute, Du Shaofu didn't pay too much attention to it and directly entered the Martial Hidden Building. Fu Yibai had always lived in the room at the back of the first floor, but Du Shaofu rarely goes there.

Du Shaofu entered Fu Yibai's room. The room was very neat and tidy, but that was because there were not many things to be messed up. However, there was also no trace of Fu Yibai.

"Where could he go in the middle of the night?”

The room was not big, so he could easily see that there were no signs of Fu Yibai in this room.

"Swish."

There seemed some some movement behind him. Du Shaofu immediately turned around and said, "Old Bai, where did you go just now?"

Before Du Shaofu could finish speaking, his face had frozen. Behind him was not Fu Yibaiyi, but a beautiful woman in her forties wearing a plain palace dress, with the light blue ribbons fluttering in the wind. She was extremely refined and elegant, carrying a kind of aura of dignity that was irresistibly revering.

"Who are you?”

Du Shaofu was stunned for a while, but immediately got on his guard. This beautiful woman wasn't a person of did not belong to the Du Family, but Martial Hidden Building was a forbidden ground of the Du Family. An unfamiliar woman appearing in the forbidden grounds at night -- this was something made Du Shaofu have no choice but to be vigilant.

"Who are you to Fu Yibai?”

The plain clothes of the lady were extremely ordinary, but the lady herself radiated a noble aura. Her clear and cold voice rang out in Du Shaofu's ears. As though Du Shaofu was unable to reject her, he immediately replied: "I am Fu Yibai's big bro...friend."

Initially, Du Shaofu wanted to say that he was Fu Yibai's Big Brother. However, he had promised Fu Yibai that he would preserve Fu Yibai’s dignity in front of the others, so he immediately said that he was a friend of Fu Yibai.

"You're his friend?" The lady in plain clothes looked at Du Shaofu, her gaze flickering. She turned down her eyes, her eyelashes gracefully covering her bright eyes. Mist started to ripple in her eyes. She sighed: "He was indeed able to do such a thing."

"Big sis, are you Old Bai's friend?"

Du Shaofu asked. From the tone of her voice, she seemed to know Fu Yibai. However, it was strange that Fu Yibai knew such a character, as he had never heard Fu Yibai talk about the woman's existence, and he had never heard Fu Yibai mention anyone else except himself.

The plain-clothed woman didn't answer Du Shaofu. Her clear eyes were like water as they swept across Fu Yibai's room. Then, she curled her lips and said: "He actually has something to do with you. He's hiding from me, so I have to take you with me."

When she finished speaking, Du Shaofu did not see the plain-clothed woman move. He was suddenly paralysed, and it was as if the surrounding space had frozen. Even the Profound Qi of the meridians in his body had frozen. A delicate hand landed on his shoulder.

"Eh?"

When her delicate hand landed on Du Shaofu's shoulder, the plain-clothed woman's clear eyes flashed with a hint of surprise. Immediately, they flashed out of sight from the room.

The bright moon circled the star-studded sky.

In the air, Du Shaofu's one shoulder was seized by the plain-clothed woman. It was obvious that her delicate hands were powerless, but his body was being helplessly hauled across the sky. They quickly swept past the vast buildings of the Stone City. In the end, they appeared within a boundless mountain range.

The mountains snaked up and down as far as the eye could see. The moonlighted cast a shadow over the vast expanse of the sea. "A powerful expert, a absolutely powerful expert.”

In the air, although Du Shaofu was scrunched up in pain from being whipped around by the wind, he could not hold back the look of awe spreading across his face. Flying through the air, is the level of strength that even his eldest uncle and second uncle could not achieve. Only those legendary martial cultivation experts were able to achieve such enviable strength.

Within the sea of trees, a mountain had been uprooted by a thousand feet. The menacing mountain peak stood erect, and the surrounding demon rocks glittered in the moonlight. A huge cliff protruded from the ground, jutting out from the mountainside imposingly like a dragon raising its head.

The beautiful woman landed on the mountain top and let go of Du Shaofu. As her delicate hand touched Du Shaofu's chest, Du Shaofu involuntarily opened his mouth. An object that looked like a pill shot into his throat, then fell into his stomach.

"Big Senior, what did you give me to eat?”

Du Shaofu's face changed drastically. He reached into his mouth to gouge out the pill, but tears came instead. The pill was nowhere to be found, as if it had already melted into his stomach.

The beautiful woman in plain clothes did not pay Du Shaofu any attention. She stepped forward and sat cross-legged on a clean and green rock. Her beautiful eyes gazed out into the vast mountains in the distance. It is hard to tell what was on her mind.

"Senior, I actually don't have any relationship with that old Fu Yibai. If you have a grudge against him, I'm afraid you have got the wrong person.”

Du Shaofu had originally thought that the beautiful woman was Fu Yibai's friend or something similar, but now it was clear that this beautiful woman definitely has a deep grudge against Fu Yibai. Du Shaofu had quietly and deeply blamed Fu Yibai in his heart, as he was unreasonably withheld by this woman.

The beautiful woman turned and looked at Du Shaofu, "If you have nothing to do with him, then there is no use in keeping you. I’ll kill you now.”

The cold voice made Du Shaofu's heart tremble, he immediately changed his expression and said: "Senior, I am not related to Old Bai, but we have known each other for a long time. We once shared a bed, and wore the same pants.”

"As long as you don't think about running, you will be alive and well. However, if Fu Yibai does not come to save you, everything will be hard to tell." The beautiful woman said to Du Shaofu.

"Old Bai will definitely come. But here is probably very far from the Stone City, so if Old Bai comes, it would probably take at least ten to fifteen days. We should take our time to wait, for Fu Yibai; he will definitely come here.”

Although Du Shaofu put on a strong face, his heart twinges with worry. Now, the place he was at should be the Barbarian Beast Mountain Range on the outskirts of Stone City. This place was rumoured as the world of the Demon Beast. Whether Fu Yibai would come or not was an uncertain matter. Even if he did come, this old man, who perhaps only knew how to dig out birds' nest, probably would not be able to save him from this beautiful woman, who had such a strong cultivation.

The beautiful woman glanced at Du Shaofu, but didn't say anything. She waved her long sleeve, and an antique flute appeared in her delicate hands. She slightly opened her lips, then the beautiful sound came out from the flute.
