"I don't know either. All I know is that I have to do everything I can to save my woman," Lin Yifan replied.
The situation at the time didn't allow him to hesitate. What if something happened to Zhou Jiajia and Su Qingqing? He could only act immediately and go rescue them.
An Qi was truly moved; only now did she realize how much Lin Yifan loved them.
"How did you manage to escape unharmed twice?"
"Once Qingqing saved me, and the other time my master did," Lin Yifan answered.
"Qingqing? Isn't she just an ordinary person? How did she save you?" An Qi was extremely curious.
"The Shadow Organization captured her and found her valuable, but they needed her cooperation, so after things were exposed, she threatened the Shadow Organization's cultivators to let me go, or she wouldn't cooperate in their experiments," Lin Yifan explained.
Talking about this caused a pang of pain in his heart, as Qingqing's desperate eyes were still vivid in his memory.
"Experiments? What on earth is that Shadow Organization scum trying to do?"
An Qi loathed evil deeply, and didn't expect Qingqing's fate to be so tragic.
"I don't know either."
"And what about Jiajia?"
"She was also captured for experiments," Lin Yifan said.
"How could this be? What do they really want?"
An Qi was stunned, truly unable to understand why these foreign cultivation organizations wanted to capture live people for experiments.
"Although it sounds terrible, at least it means Jiajia and Qingqing are still alive, so we still have time and a chance to rescue them."
Lin Yifan comforted An Qi, calming her emotional state.
An Qi realized Lin Yifan's words made sense; everything hadn't reached the worst point yet, and she shouldn't let her thoughts run wild or give up easily.
After a long while, everyone's mood gradually calmed down.
The past was over, and now, the only thing they could do was to strive to enhance their realm while ensuring their own safety.
An Qi would never allow herself to collapse first; she must become the strongest and rescue Zhou Jiajia and Su Qingqing with Yifan.
A few hours later, it was nearing dusk, and Yi Chen, Lin Yilian, and Lin Yifei returned from outside.
As they stepped into the house and saw An Qi sitting in the living room, Lin Yilian excitedly exclaimed, "Sister-in-law An Qi, you're finally back! I've missed you so much."
"Sister-in-law An Qi? Is this the legendary second girlfriend of my brother? She's indeed very beautiful!"
Lin Yifei was shocked and never expected that the beautiful woman in ancient attire would be her second sister-in-law.
Upon hearing someone call her, An Qi turned around and, recognizing the long-unseen Xiaolian, immediately got up to embrace her.
After exchanging pleasantries, An Qi turned her head to look at the pure girl beside Yi Chen and curiously asked, "Who is she..."
This girl's temperament was very similar to that of Qingqing's sister, and An Qi thought she might be someone Lin Yifan found to replace Qingqing's position.
"Oh! Let me introduce you. This is my sister Lin Yifei; you can just call her Yifei."
"Yifei? So you are the legendary second sister of Yifan, truly a natural beauty, extraordinary indeed."
An Qi had always heard that Lin Yifan had two sisters. She had only met one before, and now, seeing the second one, she was surprised and taken aback by Lin Yifei's beauty.
"Second sister-in-law, you're being too kind. As beautiful as I am, I'm not half as beautiful as you."
"Yifei, little sister, you're too modest."
So far, An Qi had quite a good impression of this pure little sister, at least more so than Xiaolian, who could be quite mischievous and difficult to deal with.
"Alright, don't leave them hanging there; come and let's have dinner!"
At that moment, the delicious dishes were ready, and the family could sit down and enjoy a meal together.
Without hesitation, An Qi and the others immediately sat at the dining table to eat together.
The dinner was harmonious, and the relationship between Lin Yifei and An Qi gradually deepened.
Time flew by, and after spending a few days at home, Lin Yifan, An Qi, and Xiaofang returned to their respective sects for cultivation.
They reluctantly bid farewell to their family and then flew away to a distant place.
Lin Yifan chose to accompany An Qi back first, as she was the only disciple of Cinnabar Palace here, and letting her travel alone would be dangerous.
The journey was mostly uneventful.
However, when they reached a remote forest, they were ambushed by the Shadow Organization ninjas.
The target of the Shadow Organization ninjas was Lin Yifan, because according to the reports of scouts, Lin Yifan had obtained the Peerless Treasure, previously belonging to the Shadow Organization. That Peerless Treasure was extremely important to them, and they had to retrieve it.
Lin Yifan was attacked, and of course, An Qi couldn't stand idly by. As soon as she got involved, the elder from Cinnabar Palace and Xuji True Master, who were secretly protecting her, wouldn't stand aside either.
Thus, Xuji True Master blocked all powerful attacks and angrily rebuked the Shadow Organization cultivators hiding in the forest: "Beasts! Is the Central Plains Cultivation World a place you pirates dare to offend? Leave immediately, or don't blame me for being unkind."
Feeling the powerful aura of Xuji True Master, the Shadow Organization ninjas frowned.
This was not a good situation, as Xuji True Master was a figure at the forefront of the Central Plains Cultivation World, not someone to be provoked unless by the "Heaven Ninja Master."
However, among them was an "Earth Ninja Master," so they weren't too afraid.
The "Earth Ninja Master" was only second to the "Heaven Ninja Master," possessing immense power. Their status was akin to that of the Great Elders, Second Elders, and Third Elders of various major sects, with high status and formidable strength.
Even though in a real fight, the "Earth Ninja Master" might not be able to defeat Xuji True Master, they could hold him off for a while.
Lin Yifan didn't have many powerful allies, and with this time, they believed they could capture Lin Yifan, so they decided to take the risk.
Without further ado, the Shadow Organization's "Earth Ninja Master" immediately attacked Xuji True Master, aiming to restrain him, while the other elite ninjas rushed forward, intending to capture Lin Yifan.
The other elders from the Cinnabar Palace certainly couldn't stand by and watch, so they quickly drew their swords to stop them.
However, due to limited manpower, they could only block a few elite ninjas, unable to handle the others.
Seeing himself about to be captured by the Shadow Organization ninjas, Lin Yifan really wanted to take out the scroll and wipe out these bastards.
The scroll was an extremely powerful secret weapon that had saved his life twice before. Now, with only one last use left, he was reluctant to use it.
Just when he didn't know what to do, a furious voice suddenly echoed in the chaotic space.
Hearing this voice made the Shadow Organization ninjas' hair stand on end, and they immediately used a secret technique to escape.
Although this secret technique could evade Lin Yifan and his allies' sight, it couldn't escape the eyes of the Medicine Saint. As a result, all the arriving elite ninjas were killed, leaving only the "Earth Ninja Master" fleeing with injuries.
