"Someone seize him for me!!!"
At this point, those who didn't know the truth were still bewildered, not yet having accepted the fact that Chu Feng had poisoned the Clan Master.
However, Chu Hanqing's accomplices had long been primed and ready. The moment Chu Hanqing gave the order, they immediately charged toward Chu Feng.
BOOM—
But the moment they drew close, a thunderous explosion erupted. Chu Feng had actually detonated himself, his body scattering into a plume of black smoke that dispersed in all directions.
Seeing this scene, everyone was startled once more.
They all knew that Chu Feng's self-detonation just now hadn't killed him — he had escaped.
But they had no idea what method Chu Feng had used to slip away right under the noses of so many experts, nor did they have any way to stop it. They didn't even know where he had fled to.

Suddenly, a deafening crash rang out as Chu Feng's palace doors were blasted to splinters.
The next moment, a figure stormed in and landed behind Chu Feng.
It was Chu Hanqing.
"Grand Elder?"
Seeing this Grand Elder, all the juniors were visibly shaken.
But before they could fully react, the Grand Elder was already gone — and Chu Feng along with him, having vanished without a trace.
Naturally, Chu Feng had been seized by Chu Hanqing.
