Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1693: Chapter 1687: Everyone Helps in Searching for the Person

“Alright, you all be careful. Cohen said the person ran toward the back mountain.” Nangong Shulan was anxious but helpless, and could only agree with her daughter’s suggestion. She knew that following instructions was the only way to retrieve the child.

“Alright, thank you all for your help. Let’s go.” Qin Xue led the group toward the back mountain.

Qin Xue had come here twice before, once during the past New Year when she visited the house Qing Zhu lived in, but she had never ventured deep into the mountains. Now that the child had been taken to the back mountain, she had no choice but to head there.

“Xue Ling, can you sense Yu Ze’s position?” Qin Xue asked Xue Ling using her consciousness.

“No, I can’t. The tracking talisman I placed has been active for too long; I can’t detect it anymore.” Xue Ling’s talisman had a time limit, and since they had been traveling for nearly two months, its effects had long expired.

Now, it was impossible to sense Yu Ze’s location. However, Xue Ling could still discern whether Yu Ze was in mortal danger. Currently, with no alarming sensations, it proved the child was safe.

“Then what should we do?” Qin Xue was extremely worried. The thought of her child being in danger and not being able to be there for him made her heart ache even more. How scared must he be at such a young age?

“Don’t worry. The child is safe for now. We need to figure out what kind of person would do such a thing. I think it must be someone familiar with your family and your current situation; otherwise, they couldn’t have timed it so perfectly.” Xue Ling’s thoughts mirrored those of Qin Xue. It was likely someone close to them, someone familiar.

As Xue Ling mentioned, how could someone unfamiliar with their family’s dynamics seize the perfect opportunity, knowing precisely when the adults weren’t around? It would be impossible for a stranger to orchestrate this. Qin Xue refused to believe that someone distant would be responsible.

But who would do this? Qin Xue pondered deeply, and suddenly a name flashed in her mind. Could it be her?

The group moved quickly. Though Munara had never ventured out before, she was extremely skilled in navigating the forest. Her agility made it seem like she was running on flat ground, unhindered by any obstacles.

“Xue Ling, if we manage to find the child this time, I want to take action on something. When the time comes, I’ll need your help.” The light in Qin Xue’s eyes was so sharp and ruthless that no one dared meet her gaze. The ferocity in her expression was chilling.

“Alright, do whatever you need to do — I have no objections.” Xue Ling understood that this was Qin Xue’s bottom line. In fact, it was its own as well. Ever since coming out of the confinement period, it had been taking care of Yu Ze. Watching him grow up had been no small effort, and now he had been abducted. How could it not be furious?

“Alright then, let’s focus on finding him first. Use your divine sense to probe and see if you can locate the child,” Qin Xue said, her heart filled with urgency but her demeanor steady.

She knew that panicking wouldn’t help. In fact, it could cloud her judgment. In moments like these, Qin Xue worked even harder to calm herself down.

“Understood, Master. Don’t worry — the child will be okay. He’s so clever; he’s bound to find a way out of danger.” Xue Ling had taught Yu Ze plenty of skills, and if he couldn’t even ensure his own safety, Xue Ling would need to reevaluate whether to continue mentoring him.

“I hope so. If I find out who did this, I will make sure they wish they were dead.” At that moment, the aura emanating from Qin Xue left everyone speechless.

But honestly, who could blame her? Knowing their child had been abducted, what parent wouldn’t feel consumed with rage and despair?

After all, Yu Ze was such a delightful child, and yet someone had taken him. No one could accept this. It was easy to understand Qin Xue’s reaction.
