Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 1027 - 179: No Room for Anyone Else

The letter brought by Qi is an investigation report from the Hunter Soldier Union.

That was the information collected after Qi released a commissioned task at the Continent Mercenary Guild.

Three years ago, Hu Sheng left without a farewell.

Qi always felt that someone like Hu Sheng wouldn’t leave abruptly, without leaving any trace of information.

Over the past three years, he has been closely searching for Hu Sheng’s whereabouts.

Qi issued a commission aimed at all the continent’s hunters through the Mercenary Guild, promising a substantial reward for any clues proven effective about Hu Sheng’s whereabouts.

Yet, even so, over the past few years, he had not received any significant leads.

Until half a month ago, when a Free Hunter wandering around the borders of Hou Qin went to the Great Zhou’s Hunter Soldier Union, claiming to have seen a woman three years ago at a port in Hou Qin who looked very similar to Hu Sheng.

However, at that time, the woman was with several Summoners from Penglai Summoning Court.

Qi personally went and found the hunter, who described the woman’s appearance as exactly like Hu Sheng.

"The hunter also mentioned that there were two Main Summoners from the Summoning Court escorting Hu Sheng, and one of them was the Second Main Summoner. The port where they appeared was exactly a necessary route from Great Zhou to Penglai," which further convinced Qi that Hu Sheng had indeed been captured by people from the Summoning Court.

Hu Sheng was the Heavenly Fox Saintess, her identity was extraordinary, if she was caught by the Summoning Court, the consequences would likely be dire. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Upon confirming the news, coincidentally Senior Sister Lan had to represent the Magic Elite Camp and attend the Dutian Summit in Penglai, so Qi volunteered to accompany her.

Upon hearing this, Yun Sheng felt a surge of suspicion in her heart.

Hu Sheng was indeed the Heavenly Fox Saintess, but her fall to the Wuji Continent was very secretive.

Apart from Dugu Xiu, Madam Bi, and others from Hou Qin, no third party knew about it.

How did the people from the Summoning Court know that Hu Sheng was in Great Zhou, and where was she caught?

But what concerned Yun Sheng and Qi more was that Hu Sheng had been taken for three years, considering the Summoning Court’s hatred for the Eight Desolate Beast Clan, Hu Sheng might no longer be alive.

Thinking about that fragile girl who shared her face yet had such a tragic fate, Yun Sheng couldn’t help but sigh in her heart.

No matter what, she had promised Hu Sheng that she would send her back to the Eight Desolates.

This time, even if she couldn’t save Hu Sheng alive, she would at least find her remains.

Seeing how anxious Yun Sheng and Qi were about this person named Hu Sheng, Lan couldn’t help but feel a bit puzzled.

"Qi, you’re so worried about that woman named Hu Sheng, could it be that she’s your beloved?" Lan had never met Hu Sheng and didn’t know that she looked exactly like Yun Sheng.

But over the years, Lan had heard about Qi’s relentless search for Hu Sheng.

From Lan’s perspective, Qi was only interested in Yun Sheng and Gu Feng’s matters; he didn’t care much about anyone else, not even his own mentor She Huang.

So naturally, Lan assumed that Qi’s anxiousness was because he liked someone named Hu Sheng.

Little did she know, upon this question, Qi’s handsome face changed slightly, and he hurriedly defended, "Senior Sister Lan, what are you talking about? Hu Sheng and I are very innocent, I... I only consider her a companion."

Qi’s voice grew smaller and smaller, eventually turning into a mosquito’s buzz.

However, Qi didn’t realize that the more he defended, the less clear it became, so in the end, he simply kept silent.

"Ha, look at you being all flustered, so Qi can actually be shy." Senior Sister Lan rarely used a teasing tone and made fun of Qi.

Qi was so eager to find Hu Sheng but it wasn’t because he realized he had feelings for her afterward.

On the contrary, Qi was very clear that he did not love Hu Sheng.

Back when Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming decided to get married, Qi felt disheartened, and he even recklessly thought he might try to love Hu Sheng, who looked just like Yun Sheng.

During that time, Hu Sheng’s gentleness and kindness did give Qi the illusion that he accepted Hu Sheng.

But it wasn’t until the day Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming wed, watching Yun Sheng in her wedding attire being sent into the bridal chamber, that he realized he never really let go.

There could be such a person in life, once encountered, no one else could ever enter your heart again.

Indeed, a person can sometimes mean the entire world.

Yun Sheng was Qi’s world.

Qi silently confessed in his heart: The one I love has always been Yun Sheng alone.

"Senior Sister Lan, let Qi be; you know his nature. Let’s first confirm Hu Sheng’s life or death," Yun Sheng quickly intervened, thinking Qi’s silence stemmed from embarrassment.

Qi smiled wryly by the side, without saying much.

Yun Sheng believed that if Hu Sheng was indeed caught by the Summoning Court, they would surely find news of her.

"Since the other person is a descendant of the Heavenly Fox, captured by the Summoning Court, they’re just getting what they deserve. Why go to such lengths to rescue them? If they dispatched two Summoner Level Summoners to capture, this Hu Sheng you mentioned is certainly not an ordinary person," Senior Sister Lan was puzzled why Yun Sheng and Qi became so agitated upon learning of a Sky Fox Clan member’s capture.

Senior Sister Lan wasn’t particularly fond of the Summoning Court, but she disliked the Eight Desolate Beast Clan even more.

She didn’t know Yun Sheng was also a descendant of the Heavenly Fox, as a member of the Human Clan, she had a natural hostility towards the Eight Desolate Beast Clan.

After all, they were in Penglai, and the people from the Summoning Court weren’t to be trifled with.

"Senior Sister Lan, it’s a long story, but Hu Sheng and I are deeply connected. We must save her; alive, we must see her, dead, we must see her corpse," Yun Sheng said resolutely.

Qi, standing by, nodded solemnly in agreement.

Seeing their unwavering determination, Senior Sister Lan had no other choice.

"The rescue has to be carefully planned, perhaps during the upcoming Dutian Summit, we can take the opportunity to enter the Summoning Court to investigate. Yun Sheng, enough of this for now; we haven’t seen each other for ages, and I heard your Magic Cultivation has improved again. Come, let’s find a place to spar," Senior Sister Lan couldn’t shake off her old habits; upon seeing Yun Sheng, she couldn’t resist wanting to challenge her in magic.

Seeing Senior Sister Lan so eager, Qi couldn’t stop her either.

Since Yun Sheng left the Mainland Magic Elite Camp, Senior Sister Lan lost a worthy opponent, being quite pent-up over the years.

Qi gave Yun Sheng a helpless look, and Yun Sheng could only wail as she was "kidnapped" by Senior Sister Lan.
