After Being Possessed By A Witch, I Became An Outlaw

Chapter 45: I Give Up Treatment Directly

"What? Tang Ruoling has been kidnapped by the bandits again?"

Zhang Chi was also shocked when he received the news. In broad daylight, someone would kidnap a young girl?

What bad luck has befallen Tang Ruoling? Is it because of her surname Tang that she is easily captured?

Zhang Chi complained in his heart and quickly sought information from others.

It turned out that Tang Ruoling's phoenix carriage flew to Sword Sect and was intercepted by disciples from the Law Enforcement Hall of Sword Sect.

After passing through the Sword Sect gate, flying was not allowed without reason.

After the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall controlled the bird, they discovered that there was no one in the phoenix carriage, but there were obvious bloodstains inside.

The disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall quickly realized that something was wrong. Upon careful observation, they found that the phoenix carriage belonged to the Spiritual Medicine Valley. They immediately sent someone to inquire and learned that only Tang Ruoling had left the house on the phoenix carriage today.

They searched along the way and found the coachman who drove the phoenix carriage. The coachman's body was separated, and the bloodstains on the carriage belonged to him.

Now, the entire Sword Sect, and even the Left River League, were in an uproar.

In this area ruled by the Left River League, especially in the core area near Sword Sect, such a vicious incident had never happened before.

It had always been relatively peaceful here, and even if there were disputes, they rarely involved members of the Left River League.

But the phoenix carriage of Tang Ruoling clearly had the mark of the Spiritual Medicine Valley. The other party killed and kidnapped in broad daylight, showing their arrogance and cruelty.

Once the news spread, it quickly sparked heated discussions, and most people believed that the one who took action must be the arrogant thief from before.

He had previously captured Tang Ruoling but was saved by Zhang Chi. This time, it must be out of a sense of revenge.

Tang Ruoling was probably going to suffer a lot!

So, someone immediately came to inform Zhang Chi after receiving the news.

Many people knew about the relationship between Zhang Chi and Tang Ruoling. Although they ended up together by accident, Tang Ruoling was still labeled with Zhang Chi's name.

Now that Tang Ruoling had been kidnapped and no one knew what she would suffer, people looked at Zhang Chi and couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

If Tang Ruoling was violated by someone else, could he still accept her?

If he didn't accept her, Tang Ruoling was just a victim. If Zhang Chi abandoned her, it would be adding insult to injury.

Morally, Zhang Chi had flaws.

If he accepted her, who wouldn't have a thorn in their hearts?

The gossipers were already thinking about whether Zhang Chi would be jealous or not, but Zhang Chi sensed a deeper crisis in all of this.

Everyone thought there was such a thief, but only Zhang Chi knew that the thief was himself.

He had robbed himself, so how could there be any retaliation? Moreover, Tang Ruoling was at the Foundation Building Stage, and if it wasn't for a surprise attack, it would take at least a level of strength beyond that to do it.

What benefit could someone gain from kidnapping Tang Ruoling?

The rumors about the Xuan Yin physique had already been explained by Zhou Ran before. Even if some people didn't believe it, they should know that Zhang Chi wouldn't kidnap her again.

Soon, Zhang Chi came to a conclusion.

This kidnapping was probably aimed at him.

Thinking of this, Zhang Chi quickly thanked the person who delivered the news and hurriedly went to find Jiang Qingyun.

At this moment, Jiang Qingyun was also in a state of anxiety.

There were already many visible sect affairs, and there were also threats from Zi Mian in secret.

The Elder was watching closely, and she had to keep an eye on Qinghui as well.

The case of the spiritual stones had not yet completely ended, and the verification of the spiritual energy tide was still ongoing, but the results were gradually becoming clear.

After changing the supervision, the output of the spiritual stone cave returned to normal, but it did not exceed the average of previous years by much.

This already indicated a problem. Since it was a tide, there would be ups and downs. It was impossible for it to only go down and not up.

It was just because the short-term results were not enough to rely on that a one-month deadline was set.

Who knows, Qinghui might cause trouble and run away one day, so she had to keep a close eye on her.

And now, there was this matter with Tang Ruoling.

The nature of Tang Ruoling being kidnapped during the day and at night was different, and the nature would also be different if someone died.

After Tang Ruoling was captured, an uneasy atmosphere spread throughout the Left River League.

If Tang Ruoling could be captured, could others escape?

When everyone feels threatened, the rule of the Left River League will also become unstable.

There will be more people breaking the rules, forming a vicious cycle, so this matter must be thoroughly investigated!

Jiang Qingyun was discussing post-event handling with representatives from various sects when a disciple came to report that Zhang Chi was seeking an audience.

This is not the River Temple, and the matters being discussed here are not convenient to be made public, so ordinary disciples are not involved.

Jiang Qingyun also guessed why Zhang Chi came to seek an audience at this time, so she said to the disciple who delivered the message, "Go tell Zhang Chi that I have important matters to attend to now, let him wait."

Tang Feng immediately became anxious and said, "Let Zhang Chi come in. He saved Ruoling once, maybe he can help this time too. Besides, he is not an outsider."

Chong Xu also agreed, "Zhang Chi is known for his quick thinking. Why not listen to his thoughts?"

Jiang Qingyun frowned slightly. She could understand Tang Feng's eagerness as a father, but Chong Xu was being overly kind.

Does he really think she doesn't know the true nature of this old fox?

The kinder someone appears, the more dangerous they are.

Zhou You was stripped of his position as the head of the White Tiger Hall, and without great achievements, he has no future prospects.

Zhou Ran had it even worse, being transferred to the Secular Affairs Hall as a menial disciple and must serve for ten years.

Chong Xu's handling of the situation did salvage some of his image.

However, he lost so much face and yet can still be so amiable. This made Jiang Qingyun secretly vigilant.

Just at this time, Zhang Chi wanted to cause trouble. Under pressure, Jiang Qingyun had no choice but to agree. However, when Zhang Chi came in, she did not give him a friendly look.

"You are under house arrest, why didn't you stay put? What are you doing here?"

Zhang Chi immediately replied, "Disciple heard that Tang Ruoling had an accident and felt uneasy. I wanted to come and see if there was anything I could do to help."

"Do you think too highly of yourself? Do you think that the entire Sword Sect and Left River League can only rely on you? Are others all fools and without you, nothing can be accomplished? Is that what you think?"

Jiang Qingyun scolded the disciple angrily, and the others did not dare to interrupt. Zhang Chi quickly apologized, "Disciple dares not."

"What else are you afraid of? Haven't I told you that the case of the Spirit Stone Cave has not been settled yet? You recovered 250,000 spirit stones through your plan, and the thieves might retaliate against you. You can't even protect yourself now, yet you still want to show off everywhere?"

Chong Xu narrowed his eyes, knowing that Jiang Qingyun was targeting him.

But he didn't care.

Today, he must urge Zhang Chi to go out and investigate.

Once Zhang Chi leaves the Sword Sect, he doesn't have to come back.

Even the Sect Master can't save him, that's what I said!

Tang Feng, upon hearing this, finally understood Zhang Chi's situation. He felt a little guilty for pulling Zhang Chi into this mess, but now that he knew, he couldn't ask Zhang Chi to back down. It was his own daughter who was captured, and at this moment, Zhang Chi was the most reliable.

Facing Jiang Qingyun's reprimand, Zhang Chi did not back down.

"Disciple understands what Master said, but from a moral and logical standpoint, I cannot sit idly by. Tang Ruoling left Spiritual Medicine Valley because she accepted my invitation, and that's why she was attacked. Just based on this, I cannot sit idly by. Moreover, Tang Ruoling is my future Dao companion. Now that she is in danger, I will do everything I can to save her."

Tang Feng was moved to tears by Zhang Chi's words, but these few sentences were like a heavy hammer, hitting Jiang Qingyun's chest.

You are amazing, you are noble, you are willing to risk your life to save Tang Ruoling.

Why don't you consider your teacher's feelings?

"Speak, what is your plan?"

Jiang Qingyun suppressed the surging emotions in her heart and asked.

"If my guess is correct, the bandits will soon send us a message."

Zhang Chi speculated that the bandits were targeting him, so he quickly took action.

Only by taking the initiative can he avoid being passive.

No matter what the situation is, he will have time to respond.

And just as Zhang Chi finished speaking, a disciple came to report that the bandits had sent a letter written by Tang Ruoling, requesting that Zhang Chi go alone to the Qingshui Port at night.

This targeting was a bit obvious.

Zhang Chi made a decision in an instant.

Miss Tang, take care of yourself. May there be no kidnappings in heaven...
