One person: Starting with the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, his grandmaster uncle emerges from seclusion.

He found himself standing in a bizarre space that completely defied common sense.

There is no distinction between up, down, left, or right here.

Countless glowing staircases intertwined and twisted in the void.

Some staircases lead to the ceiling, while others break off mid-air.

This place is practically an enlarged version of a three-dimensional maze!

"Good heavens... Where the hell did I end up? Is this still in China?"

Wang Ye swallowed hard and carefully stepped onto a floating stone slab.

"Oh my? Someone actually managed to sneak in through the back door I left?"

A hoarse voice, tinged with surprise and mockery, suddenly echoed in this distorted space.

Wang Ye felt a chill run down his spine and suddenly turned his head!

All that could be seen above his head was an inverted staircase.

Before I knew it, an old man was sitting there!

The old man looked to be in his eighties or nineties, his face full of wrinkles like a dried walnut.

But his eyes were frighteningly bright, as if they could see through everything.

He was sitting upside down on the stair railing, holding a radio in his hand, looking like an old man listening to opera.

One of the Thirty-Six Thieves, a master of the Great Luo Cave!

Gu Jiating!

"Senior, you're in high spirits, practicing handstands in broad daylight?"

Wang Ye suppressed his shock and forced a nonchalant smile.

He knew that taking action here would be pure torture, so he might as well use words first.

"Heh heh, this little brat's got some nerve. Running onto this old man's turf and daring to tease me?"

Gu Qiting turned off the radio in his hand and, like a nimble old monkey, jumped directly down the upside-down stairs.

He did a somersault in mid-air and landed steadily on another floating stone slab in front of Wang Ye.

Gu Qiting leaned closer and looked Wang Ye up and down.

His old eyes held a hint of admiration: "Tsk tsk, such a reserved demeanor. Third Brother has indeed raised a fine junior."

"Being able to break the lock I left on the map means your Feng Hou Qi Men technique has truly reached a high level."

Wang Ye seized the opportunity and quickly tried to get closer to him: "Senior, we're all relatives. Since we're acquaintances, let's not beat around the bush."

“Senior Gu, I’m here today for no other reason than that you made that Ma Xianhong disappear right under our noses the other day.”

Wang Ye clasped his hands in a fist salute and got straight to the point.

"This matter has become quite a big deal. I'm just a junior messenger, entrusted by someone to ask you to be lenient and return the person to me."

Chapter 314 Wang Ye: I really don't want to go back to the Great Luo Cave!

"VIP?"

Gu Qiting laughed, his face wrinkling as he smiled.

"Little kid, do you think this is a vegetable market? If I could just return him so easily, why would I go through all that trouble to kidnap him?"

Gu Qiting sat cross-legged on the stone slab, squinting as he pondered:

"That kid is a real gem. His master craftsmanship is hard to find these days. I'm counting on him to forge a few high-level magical artifacts that I can use."

"Senior, that's a bit unreasonable of you."

Wang Ye sighed and directly shifted the blame to the other party:

"You are incredibly resourceful and naturally unafraid of trouble. But you've offended more than just our company in this matter."

The Master Tian Shu of Longhu Mountain is watching you kidnap Ma Xianhong.

Upon hearing the words "Tian Shu Zhenren"...

The mocking smile on Gu Qiting's face froze for a moment.

Although things quickly returned to normal, Wang Ye still managed to notice it.

"Oh? You mean that lawless madman from the Zhang family?"

Gu Qiting coughed twice, trying to hide his unease.

"What? Is that kid free now? He's even taking on these errand-running jobs to find people?"

I don't know if he has any free time.

Wang Ye spread his hands, his tone very sincere:

"But I know he's really angry right now."

"He asked me to pass on a message to you. If you don't hand over the person, he might come and study the method of dismantling this Great Luo Cave Temple himself."

Gu Qiting's eye twitched violently.

He had personally witnessed what kind of person Zhang Tianyi was.

Although my Great Luo Cave Temple can provide cover, if that unreasonable living Yama really sets his sights on me, then life will be truly unbearable!

But as an elder, one cannot lose face.

"Hmph! Don't try to scare this old man with that madman!"

Gu Qiting snorted coldly and stood up:

"You can't just talk your way out of getting people from me. Little brat, since you broke through my defenses to get in, let's play by our rules!"

"If you can even touch a corner of my clothes today, I'll tell you where Ma Xianhong is. If you can't..."

Gu Qiting revealed a mischievous grin, like that of an old man:

"You'd better stay in this maze and play with these rocks for three months!"

Before he could finish speaking...

Gu Jiting's figure vanished from the spot.

Not even a fluctuation of Qi remained!

"Damn it! They're doing that again!"

Wang Ye's expression changed drastically, and he stomped his foot.

"The chaotic clapper!"

He attempted to suppress this space using the Feng Hou Qi Men technique.

However, the Qimen Dunjia divination had just begun.

The stone slab beneath his feet had flipped ninety degrees!

Wang Ye fell headfirst into the endless abyss!

"You old geezer, you have no sportsmanship!!"

Wang Ye exclaimed in surprise and quickly mobilized the Qi within his body, trying to find a foothold in the air.

Just as he was frantically grabbing at a floating pebble in mid-air.

Gu Qiting's mocking voice came from all directions:

"Little brat! Feng Hou Qi Men is based on four fixed plates. But my Da Luo Dong Guan directly dismantles your four plates!"

"What do you think you can use to fight me? Hahahaha!"

Wang Ye gritted his teeth, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

The spatial rules here are completely chaotic!

One second it's left, the next second it's right.

His Qimen Dunjia formation here is like a lagging, broken computer that simply can't run!

"We can't use conventional methods..."

Wang Ye clung tightly to the rock, his mind racing.

He recalled the words Zhou Shengjiao had taught him.

"The mysteries of Yin and Yang, their order and reversal, are inexhaustible; the two solstices return to their homeland within the Nine Palaces... follow the natural course..."

Wang Ye closed his eyes and simply dispelled the Qimen formation beneath his feet.

He didn't look at the messy stairs and stone slabs, nor did he try to perceive the changes in space.

He completely let go of himself.

I saw myself as a stone floating in this maze.

"what?"

Hidden in the shadows, Gu Qiting raised an eyebrow in surprise upon seeing this scene.

Right at this moment.

Wang Ye suddenly opened his eyes!

He didn't look in any direction, but instead suddenly threw a punch at what seemed to be empty space to his left!

"Tai Chi - Grasping the Sparrow's Tail!"

"boom!"

This punch actually hit a ball of air!

Immediately afterwards, Gu Qiting cried out in pain and fell out of the void, clutching his shoulder, and stumbled back several steps on the stone slab.

"You kid..."

Gu Qiting stared wide-eyed at Wang Ye as if he were a monster.
