Chapter 3147: Chapter 3147: I Thought I Was Seeing Things
No way, we have to get the children back. As for those men, the eyes of several elders were filled with ferocity. If it were up to them, those men should all be killed.
But thinking of the other men who hadn’t run, if they killed the runaways, it might cause even greater damage.
“Don’t just stand there, hurry up and chase after them. We must get the children back.”
As for those men, kill anyone who dares to resist. Those who don’t resist, just bring them back to work for us. Squeeze out all their cultivation level first and talk later.
Thus, all the Elders, famished, returned to the desert to catch people.
What they didn’t know was that after they went to catch people with the disciples, the other men who hadn’t escaped finally understood.
“Why are there so many children?”
“What kind of task requires so many children?”
“I just heard that female disciple say that if the children are gone, the task can’t proceed. What’s this all about?” A group of men was left behind, and no one paid any attention to them.
“I’ve never heard of a task that can’t proceed without children. Those were the Elders of the Saintess Sect, just look how anxious they are.”
“Are they sending those children to their deaths?”
Someone finally got the point. Taking so many children and keeping it a secret from them, the ones summoned — isn’t this a conspiracy?
“Fifth Brother, I think I saw Little Yan just now.”
One young man said, looking at his companion beside him. That was his brother; both were from major clans. Participating in the Saintess Sect’s task was also for the girl they admired.
“Was it really Little Yan? I thought I was seeing things.” The man called Fifth Brother spoke.
Just now he thought he was mistaken, but he wasn’t. It really was Little Yan, who was the most talented among their family’s children, most likely to become the next Family Head.
The Family Head was grooming Little Yan to be the heir, unlike them, the scattered offspring.
“How could Little Yan be here? Isn’t he supposed to be cultivating with Father?” He questioned.
Even if the Saintess Sect is crowded, Father wouldn’t send Little Yan here for a task, especially since Little Yan is only six years old, and even Father isn’t an admirer of the Saintess Sect.
“Third Brother, did we see wrong?”
“I’m sure it was Little Yan.” Third Brother shook his head.
How could he have been mistaken? Although it was far away, he was sure the child taken by the burly man was Little Yan, because he heard Little Yan calling him brother.
Little Yan must have seen him, which is why he was calling out to him.
“It really was Little Yan, so they’re… Little Yan was captured?” Fifth Brother widened his eyes in disbelief.
The Saintess Sect must be insane to do a task involving kidnapping children. So many kids, where did they catch them from? Could they all be from major clans?
“What do we do now? If the Saintess Sect really captured kids from the major clans, it surely isn’t just Little Yan. Shouldn’t we find some people to team up and rescue them?”
Upon hearing this, Third Brother took a deep breath.
He did want to team up and rescue, but they only saw Little Yan, and nobody knew who the other children were.
