"What?" Qi Li's expression changed instantly.
Wasn't that spirit vein at the border between the two sects? Now that the Floating Cloud and Spirit Taming Sects had reconciled and there were no enemies nearby, how could someone disappear on their own territory? Could the spirit vein have swallowed them whole?
"Explain everything, right now!" Qi Li focused her gaze on the panicked disciple and said slowly, "How did my father disappear?"
"It happened like this," the disciple stammered with trepidation. "Sect Leader Qi and Sect Leader Yan, led by that man Niu Wangqian, found the spirit vein without any trouble. But the rain was too heavy and completely submerged it. The surrounding terrain also suffered a large-scale collapse. Sect Leader Yan urged Sect Leader Qi to wait for the rain to stop before investigating, but Sect Leader Qi said there was no need..."
The disciple dared not continue, because Qi Li's face had turned pale.
