"It's someone from her mother's faction," Meng Xingyu said.
"Just as I thought," Feng Yuqin said. "Just now, Xiaoying also said it might be the clansmen of Yingying's mother. After all, when you were out on your adventures before, we never heard that you had offended anyone."
Meng Xingyu nodded. "When you were missing before, we were very cautious during our adventures outside, so we rarely offended others."
"How did Yingying run into her mother's clansmen?" Feng Yuqin asked curiously. "Did you tell Yingying's father about this?"
Meng Xingyu shook his head. "I didn't dare to. After all, her father is so obsessed with her mother. If I told him without being certain, it might not be a good thing."
Feng Yuqin nodded. "Then tell me what exactly happened."
"Previously, we went with Dongfang Zhi to handle the opening of the Dark Night Pavilion. Then Dongfang Zhi went to do something else first, and Yingying and I went to another street to buy some decorative items to put in the Dark Night Pavilion."
From Meng Xingyu's description, Feng Yuqin learned that they had encountered a group of people while shopping for these items.
At first, that group just followed them.
But these people didn't do anything else.
So they didn't take it seriously.
After all, they had kept a low profile all these years. As long as others didn't provoke them, they would just avoid them if they felt something was wrong.
But when they had finished shopping and were about to go back, they met that group who had been following them on the way.
When the group blocked their way, the number of people had increased.
It seemed like they had called for reinforcements.
Meng Xingyu didn't know what kind of disc they took out. He only heard an old white - haired man say, "The white jade disc is here. We can test the blood now."
These people were very powerful. Meng Xingyu and Yingying were no match for them at all. So Yingying was quickly injured. When her blood dropped on the white jade disc, the old white - haired man said that she was indeed the daughter of the former saintess.
Feng Yuqin narrowed her eyes slightly. "So Yingying's mother was the saintess of their clan?"
Meng Xingyu said, "We learned from their conversation that it was so."
"You don't know where they went either?" Feng Yuqin frowned.
Meng Xingyu shook his head. "I only heard them say they were from the North Continent, so I chased in that direction."
Feng Yuqin rubbed her temples, and her expression became solemn.
She had thought Meng Xingyu would know where Yingying was, but now it seemed he didn't.
Chasing aimlessly like this wasn't a good way.
Moreover, from Meng Xingyu's description, Feng Yuqin also learned that these people had used a temporary teleportation array.
She had to identify their direction based on the traces of the teleportation array.
"You go and inform Ye Xianyu and his father. I'll study the direction of their formation," Feng Yuqin said and then informed Mo Xuanye.
Mo Xuanye was better at formations than her. She was worried that Yingying would be in danger if too much time passed, so it was most appropriate to ask Mo Xuanye for help at this time.
Mo Xuanye rushed over immediately after getting the news.
Of course, he also brought his son, Dabao.
"Dabao, you're here too?" Feng Yuqin was a little surprised when she saw her eldest son.
Mo Xuanye said beside her, "When you contacted me, I had just finished my work and was on my way back. When he heard that you asked me to come and study the formation, he insisted on coming to learn."
Feng Yuqin nodded. "Then you watch from the side. Your father and I have to rescue Yingying."
Dabao said, "Don't worry, Mother. I won't disturb you."
While Mo Xuanye and Feng Yuqin were studying the formation, Ye Chengkang and Ye Xianyu rushed over anxiously.
After learning that Yingying was missing and that it was related to her mother, the father - son duo was both anxious and hopeful.
After all, they had been looking for so long, and finally, there was news about Yingying's mother. But they were also more worried about Yingying's safety.
While studying the traces of the teleportation array with Mo Xuanye, Feng Yuqin asked Ye Chengkang and his son to tell them about Yingying's mother's family.
"When I was in Tiancheng before, because there was a desolate city in between, I didn't find much information," Ye Chengkang said. "After arriving in the desolate city, most of my forces were used to find Xiaoqiao's whereabouts."
Feng Yuqin glanced at Ye Chengkang and asked, "You've been investigating for almost three years. Shouldn't you be able to confirm Yingying's mother's identity by now?"
She remembered that Ye Chengkang couldn't be sure of Yingying's mother's identity before.
Ye Xianyu beside him said, "My mother is from the North Continent. To be precise, she was the saintess of the Fan Yue Palace in the North Continent."
"Why did they kidnap Yingying?" Feng Yuqin was very puzzled. "Also, can you be sure that Mrs. Ye is still alive?"
Hearing this, Ye Chengkang's voice became excited. "Aqin, Xiaoqiao is still alive. I'm very sure of this."
"In that case, Mrs. Ye should be in the Fan Yue Palace in the North Continent," Feng Yuqin asked.
"Yes. So they should have taken Yingying back because of my wife," Ye Chengkang said.
Feng Yuqin nodded and thought for a moment. "Tell me in detail all the information you've investigated about the Fan Yue Palace in the North Continent."
"Okay." Ye Chengkang trusted Feng Yuqin. Moreover, he knew that if he wanted to rescue his wife and daughter now, he still needed the help of Feng Yuqin and her husband. So he told Feng Yuqin everything he had investigated without reservation.
Hearing this, Feng Yuqin frowned even more. "The Fan Yue Palace is an ancient family. There must be very powerful formations inside, and it's very likely that the blood of the Fan Yue Palace saintess has been added to these formations. It won't be easy to get in and rescue them."
"What should we do?" A look of anxiety flashed in the eyes of Ye Chengkang and his son.
Feng Yuqin comforted them. "Don't be anxious. Let's go to the Fan Yue Palace first and then see."
Ye Chengkang and his son had been at a loss because they couldn't even break the formation.
The formations in the Fan Yue Palace were very powerful. They had found the way there before, but that was the regular route.
At this moment, Yingying had been kidnapped, so they couldn't take the old route. They could only wait for Mo Xuanye to break the formation.
Half an hour later, Mo Xuanye found the trace of the formation.
Feng Yuqin entered the temporary formation.
Ye Chengkang, his son, and Meng Xingyu also wanted to enter but were blocked outside.
The three of them immediately became anxious.
"Aqin..." Meng Xingyu shouted.
"You can't go," Feng Yuqin said. "It's more convenient for me to go alone."
The three of them weren't stupid. They understood as soon as they heard this that their strength was not enough and they would only be a burden if they went.
This realization made them feel bad.
