Xu Nian raced through the roads and quickly arrived at the small city from where Xu Yu and the others had been abducted.
Following his senses, Xu Nian finally reached the battlefield where the great battle had taken place.
Looking around at the shattered remnants, Xu Nian knew that a fierce battle had occurred here.
His brows furrowed deeply.
A major battle had taken place here, and the disappearance of Xu Yu and the others originated from this location.
That clearly indicated one thing: they had been abducted.
But who could it have been?
Were they sent by the Emperor?
Xu Nian speculated in his mind.
If they were sent by the Emperor, then that was another matter.
After all, the Emperor's target was him; abducting Xu Yu and the others instead of killing them on the spot was surely a tactic to lure him out.
But if they were not sent by the Emperor, then Xu Yu and the others might be in real danger.
"Who's there? Show yourself!"
Just then, Xu Nian suddenly turned towards a hill.
There, he felt a figure flash by, just for a moment.
Xu Nian's eyes sharpened, and he instantly gave chase.
His speed was incredibly fast, even though he couldn't use his Body Cultivation.
Still, his speed far surpassed that of an ordinary warrior at the Peak of Battle Saint.
Additionally, his Spirit Cultivation had broken through to the realm of Nine-star Battle Saint, to the extent that even some Battle Emperors could not match his speed.
Thus, Xu Nian quickly caught up to the man.
The man was clearly startled upon being caught.
Obviously, he had not expected Xu Nian to catch up so quickly.
Xu Nian also sized up this man, a hint of confusion in his eyes.
This was a burly man with a big beard.
A Nine-star Battle Saint Peak Level, but a Demon Beast nonetheless.
A Demon Saint appearing in a human city was a rare sight.
After all, encountering human powerhouses often meant a no-return.
Furthermore, since Xu Yu and the others were also Demon Beasts, Xu Nian instinctively felt that their disappearance was linked to this Demon Beast he now faced.
As Xu Nian scrutinized the burly man, the man was also examining Xu Nian.
There seemed to be a deep suspicion in his gaze.
As if he had known Xu Nian before.
"Who are you, why are you spying on me?" Xu Nian quickly demanded, his tone carrying an air of authority.
"Are you Xu Nian?" Big Beard hesitated before asking.
Xu Nian was taken aback, not anticipating that the man would pose such a question.
If the man were an enemy's agent, he would not be unsure of his identity.
Moreover, Xu Nian did not feel any hostility coming from him.
"I am, how do you know my name?" Xu Nian asked urgently.
Hearing Xu Nian's words, the man finally relaxed and replied, "I am a friend of Xu Yu and Black Wind; they were captured by someone. They mentioned you often, so I guessed it was you."
Xu Nian's brow instantly furrowed.
As he had suspected, Xu Yu and Black Wind had been captured.
"Who captured them?" Xu Nian asked frantically.
"The Beast Taming Sect! They were captured by the Young Sect Master of the Beast Taming Sect using the Demon Suppressing Tower," Black Tiger responded.
"The Beast Taming Sect? Are you seeking death?" A fierce gleam suddenly burst from Xu Nian's eyes.
A surge of intense killing intent welled up from within him.
He had not anticipated that those who abducted Xu Yu and the others were members of the Beast Taming Sect.
Xu Nian had dealt with the Beast Taming Sect before but hadn't thought that Xu Yu and the others would be targeted by them.
"Where is the Beast Taming Sect? Can you take me there?" Xu Nian hastily asked Black Tiger.
Black Tiger furrowed his brow.
Did Xu Nian really just plan on heading to the Beast Taming Sect like that?
From the aura he showed just now, he was at most at the Peak of the Battle Saint Realm.
What could a Battle Saint Peak achieve by going to the Beast Taming Sect?
Wouldn't that be a suicide mission?
"Here's what we'll do, follow me to meet Bull Demon King first; he's been injured. Then we can discuss how to rescue Xu Yu and the others. The Beast Taming Sect is controlling them, so they won't be in any immediate danger," Black Tiger said.
Xu Nian thought it over and nodded.
He knew that this big-bearded fellow was questioning his ability.
But then, who would trust someone immediately upon meeting?
So Xu Nian also agreed that they should first find Bull Demon King.
Under Black Tiger's guidance, Xu Nian soon arrived at a cave.
At that moment, Bull Demon King was lying inside the cave.
Bull Demon King had been severely injured, so he was resting inside.
As for Black Tiger's presence there, it naturally was Bull Demon King who had informed him.
Actually, Bull Demon King wasn't entirely sure if Xu Nian would find the place.
But for now, all he could do was have Black Tiger try his luck.
Unexpectedly, his waiting paid off and Xu Nian really did show up.
Seeing Xu Nian arrive, a look of excitement appeared on Bull Demon King's face.
Xu Nian, seeing the extent of Bull Demon King's injuries, felt a surge of anger in his heart.
Bull Demon King could be considered his brother.
Seeing his brother beaten to such a state, how could he not feel enraged?
"Brother Xu Nian, Xu Yu and the others have been captured; they're certainly going to harm them," Bull Demon King hurriedly said, pulling at Xu Nian.
"I know. I will make the Beast Taming Sect pay for their actions, but before that, take this medicine and then we'll go to the Beast Taming Sect and turn it upside down," Xu Nian said, pulling out a Healing Holy Medicine.
These medicines were given to him by Yan Sha before she left.
They had an extremely good effect on treating injuries.
Thus, after Bull Demon King took the holy medicine, he felt his injuries heal significantly.
Even his broken ribs started regrowing.
"What a miraculous medicine."
Bull Demon King stood up and moved around, finding to his surprise that he felt no pain at all.
This brought him immediate joy.
Beside them, Black Tiger observed this scene with a look of astonishment.
Although he knew many pills could heal injuries, he had never seen medicine that could cure someone so instantly.
He was certain that such a pill was incomparably precious.
Xu Nian, however, didn't think much of it.
No matter how precious a medicine was, it was meant to be consumed.
If it could heal Bull Demon King's injuries, that was the medicine fulfilling its role to Xu Nian.
"Now we can head to the Beast Taming Sect together," Bull Demon King said, feeling fully recovered and excited.
Xu Nian also turned to look at Black Tiger.
At this moment, only Black Tiger knew exactly where the Beast Taming Sect was.
"Are you really not going to discuss it and just head straight to the Beast Taming Sect? The Beast Taming Sect has Battle Emperor Level powerhouses," Black Tiger said, still worried.
He hoped that Xu Nian would sit down and devise a feasible plan instead of marching to their deaths.
"No need, just lead the way. Even if there are Battle Emperor Level forces, I have ways to deal with them," Xu Nian said directly.
In Xu Nian's view, even if the Beast Taming Sect had Battle Emperor Level powerhouses, their Cultivation couldn't be that high.
As long as they weren't above a three-star Battle Emperor, Xu Nian feared them not in the slightest.
Black Tiger furrowed his brow, feeling that Xu Nian may be a bit too confident.
However, seeing Bull Demon King also looking at him, he finally nodded reluctantly and said, "Alright, I'll take you there."
