Chapter 1878: Chapter 1878: Kidnapped!
Qin Chen thought for a moment.
In the end, he still got up and walked over.
He approached the door and knocked: "Xinkui."
There was no sound from inside.
"Xinkui."
Qin Chen called out again.
Still, there was no response.
Qin Chen furrowed his brow and then pushed the door open.
Inside, there was no one.
Han Xinkui was not here at all!
And most importantly,
Han Xinkui’s room was very messy!
The quilt had fallen to the floor.
There were obvious signs of a struggle, even traces of blood.
Qin Chen’s expression changed immediately!
Han Xinkui might be in trouble!
"Damn it, I was too deep into my cultivation, and Little Fairy was coincidentally using soul origin to practice as well, neither of us was on guard."
Qin Chen’s face turned grim.
He searched Han Xinkui’s room.
But found nothing useful.
He frowned heavily.
"Why did they take Han Xinkui? What’s their purpose?"
He’s pondering.
It must be said.
There are many possibilities.
Without any useful clues at the moment, Qin Chen couldn’t conclude.
"Search."
Qin Chen immediately turned back to his room.
The commotion was quite loud.
Lin Songyun groggily woke up.
"What’s going on with you?"
Lin Songyun asked, looking at an agitated and anxious Qin Chen, puzzled.
"Xinkui is missing, likely met with misfortune. I’m going to notify Yue Yishan, Xuu Qian to search for her. Don’t rest either, let’s look around together and see if we can find any clues."
Qin Chen said.
"What!"
Upon hearing Qin Chen’s words.
Lin Songyun was now wide awake.
"What happened?" Lin Songyun asked, her face filled with concern.
"I’m not entirely sure, let’s find people first." Qin Chen replied, his face dark.
Afterwards.
He went to notify Xuu Qian, Yue Yishan, and others.
Let them search together.
What was supposed to be a peaceful early morning now lacked tranquility, becoming even agitated.
Meanwhile.
At another location.
Over ten figures stood here.
Han Xinkui was tied up, her mouth gagged.
She eyes fixed on one of the figures.
Leng Kang.
Back then, when Qin Chen mistakenly entered the Cliff Entrance Battle, he ran into Han Xinkui and others, then discovered someone secretly following him.
Until Qin Chen eventually exposed them.
But at the time, Leng Kang disclosed clues about the Dao Palace to Qin Chen, so Qin Chen didn’t kill Leng Kang.
But in fact.
This scheme to kidnap Han Xinkui was orchestrated by Leng Kang and members from Baisong Dynasty’s Shadow Hall.
Shadow Hall, extremely adept at covert operations.
So they could quietly abduct a living person.
That’s their capability.
"Brother Ye, Qin Chen and his group already know Han Xinkui is missing, what do we do now?"
Leng Kang looked at a sturdy man, named ’Ye Jingran’, chief disciple of Shadow Hall.
Ye Jingran said: "Just leave a note for Qin Chen, tell him to prepare three thousand Qian Dao Identity Creeds, and send Xuu Qian over to deliver it. Once we get the three thousand Qian Dao Identity Creeds, we’ll release her."
This was their goal!
Kidnapping Han Xinkui to exchange for Identity Creeds!
Must say.
This is a very risky approach.
As Qin Chen’s prowess is known by all.
But.
If they succeed, they reap the benefits effortlessly.
After discussing, they decided to execute the plan.
"Three thousand Qian Dao Identity Creeds, isn’t that too much?"
Leng Kang hesitated.
He was afraid to drive Qin Chen to desperation.
If Qin Chen really became aggressive, disregarding Han Xinkui’s life, none of them would be enough for him to kill!
"Too much? He got four thousand Identity Creeds from Gao Yu alone, he’s been getting a cut from gambling these days, he has at least five to six thousand Identity Creeds."
"I’m only asking for half." Ye Jingran said.
Leng Kang said: "Brother Ye, are you sure he’ll give three thousand Identity Creeds for this girl?"
"If you provoke him, the consequences are unimaginable. Shouldn’t we ask for less?"
He almost died at Qin Chen’s hands.
So internally, he still feared Qin Chen a little.
Ye Jingran said: "Leng Kang, you’re too timid. We’ve already kidnapped Han Xinkui, this means the line between us and Qin Chen is already crossed."
"We’re already at this stage, do you still want to reconcile with Qin Chen?"
"That’s absolutely impossible."
"And don’t forget, Qin Chen cut off one of Gao Yu’s hands for this girl, so I think Qin Chen values her and will definitely give three thousand Identity Creeds."
"I agree."
"I agree too."
Ye Jingran’s words immediately garnered agreement from many Shadow Hall members.
"Three thousand Identity Creeds! We could never get so many Identity Creeds, this is an opportunity, a chance for all of us to enter Saber Saint Cliff."
One of the Shadow Hall members said through gritted teeth.
"Let’s do it."
Ye Jingran looked at Leng Kang.
Leng Kang nodded, with things as they were, he could only heed Ye Jingran’s orders.
On the other side.
Qin Chen and his group searched for two hours, not finding Han Xinkui.
Increasingly anxious.
By now, daylight was upon them.
Gambling battles supposed to commence normally.
But due to this affair, it was delayed.
Many were surprised by this.
Upon inquiry, they learned about Han Xinkui’s mysterious disappearance.
This immediately led everyone to speculate about the reasons for Han Xinkui’s disappearance.
After a short while.
Xuu Qian found the note left by Leng Kang.
"Three thousand Qian Dao Identity Creeds?"
Upon seeing the demand, Qin Chen’s eyes twinkled.
"That’s too much!"
Xuu Qian’s face changed.
"Qin Chen."
Lin Songyun looked at Qin Chen, and Qin Chen looked back, nodding: "Rest assured, even if it’s thirty thousand Identity Creeds, I’ll save Xinkui."
"Because she is our friend."
Xuu Qian said: "Leader, are we really going to comply with their demands, send Identity Creeds?"
"Honestly, I’m not afraid, I’m brave, but swallowing this quietly? I’m really upset!"
Qin Chen didn’t speak.
He directly took out three thousand Identity Creeds and handed them to Xuu Qian.
"It’s in your hands."
Xuu Qian was amazed: "Leader, are you really doing this?"
Qin Chen said: "Quit dawdling, go! If anything happens to Han Xinkui, I’ll hold you accountable!"
Yue Yishan and others shook their heads.
Xuu Qian left quickly.
Qin Chen looked at Yue Yishan and the others: "You maintain the normal conduct of gambling battles, Lin Songyun and I will wait for Xuu Qian’s news at the residence."
Yue Yishan and others nodded, then left.
Now, the entire area was left with only Qin Chen and Lin Songyun.
Qin Chen handed the Heavenly Concealing Skin to Lin Songyun after seeing no one around: "Put this on, we’re following them."
Of course, Qin Chen wouldn’t swallow this quietly!
But with so many witnessing eyes, he had to put on a front.
Dare to touch Han Xinkui?
Then all shall perish!
