Ming Yi looked at the three of them, "Hand over the child, and I'll spare your lives."
"The child?"
Upon hearing Ming Yi's words, the three were stunned for a few seconds, then mocking smiles spread across their faces. "It's too late. The child was taken away by the Cult Master long ago. In half an hour, the auspicious time will arrive, and the Jile Sect can expand again. Even if we die, it will be worth it!"
"Cult Master?!"
Ming Yi frowned. He thought the child was here, but he hadn't expected they had already taken her away.
"Where did they take her!"
Hu Zhicheng immediately shouted upon hearing this.
"You must be the father of that little brat, right? You should be happy. Soon, your child will contribute to our Jile Sect. We will forever engrave this in our hearts... Hahahaha!"
Unbridled laughter erupted from their mouths.
Ming Yi's face darkened.
Meanwhile, Lin Xiao had already signaled Zhu Guangyu, "Investigate quickly."
Zhu Guangyu understood Lin Xiao's intention. He immediately began to have people investigate who among those who had left the foot massage parlor was carrying a child.
"You won't find anything. Here, we make the rules... How could you possibly find out?"
"Brother Xiao, we've found the target. They left ten minutes ago, in this BMW..." Zhu Guangyu provided the answer in less than thirty seconds. As he spoke, he glanced at the three of them. "You don't seem to realize how accurate satellite positioning is nowadays."
"Let's go."
Lin Xiao had no intention of continuing to tangle with these three. He said to Ming Yi, "You handle things here. We'll go and retrieve the child first."
"Alright."
Ming Yi replied, already blocking the path of the three old men from the Jile Sect. "Our account is not settled yet... Later, I will settle the total with your Cult Master."
As his voice fell, red light flashed again.
The temperature in the room instantly dropped to freezing point. Countless ice crystals began to condense in the air. The dust and smoke seemed to be frozen as well.
"Ning family's third technique, Ice Seal technique."
Since it was Ice Elemental True Qi, one naturally had to master how to use it. Moreover, only after reaching the Martial Grandmaster realm could one truly enter the path and truly control this ice-sealing ability. If the True Qi was insufficient, this ice sealing would merely be a fantasy.
The three of them were touched by his hands one by one in an instant.
After being touched, the three of them turned into three ice sculptures, standing in the room.
Then, Ming Yi turned and left.
...
Lin Xiao and the others moved with incredible speed. They completely abandoned the trouble of driving. Zhu Guangyu confirmed the target's whereabouts, and Lin Xiao, holding Hu Zhicheng in one hand and Zhu Guangyu in the other, dashed through the streets.
To be precise, it was akin to flying.
Each time his toes touched the ground, he could leap dozens of meters, sometimes even soaring an extra dozen meters in the air.
Hu Zhicheng's eyes widened. He felt he was experiencing something extraordinary. Was this a human mode of transportation?
Even with a sports car's accelerator floored, it might not be able to match Lin Xiao's speed right now.
In less than five minutes, Lin Xiao had caught up to the target vehicle.
Upon seeing the car, Lin Xiao increased his speed by a third.
In the blink of an eye, they landed on the roof of the BMW 5 Series.
