Although the Golden Crane True Immortal had already departed with Wang Qiang, Chu Feng, Zhao Hong, and Chu Xuanlang remained standing where they were.
They did not know that the Golden Crane True Immortal had deceived them, nor did they know that Wang Qiang's poison had already been cured by the Golden Crane True Immortal.
And so, both Chu Feng and Zhao Hong were worrying over how to find the antidote.
"Brother Chu Feng, with the Golden Crane True Immortal no longer stepping in, I won't be stepping in either for the matters ahead."
"I hope Brother Chu Feng won't hold it against me," Chu Xuanlang said to Chu Feng with a hint of apology.
"Brother Xuanlang, you're overthinking it. You've already helped us more than enough. I should be thanking you, so how could I possibly hold it against you?" Chu Feng replied.
"Sigh… If I could, I truly would help you. But there are rules from above — we're not permitted to interfere in the affairs of the Hundred Refinements Ordinary Realm. My intervention last time was already an exception."
"Still, while I can't take action, I can at least provide you with some information," Chu Xuanlang said.
"What information?" Zhao Hong asked.
"To untie a bell, you need the one who tied it. If you want to find the antidote for Wang Qiang's poison, you'll naturally need to find the person who poisoned him in the first place," Chu Xuanlang said.
"Brother Xuanlang, you know something about that person?" A flash of joy appeared on Chu Feng's face.
Finding the antidote did indeed require locating the one who had inflicted the poison, but at this point, he had no idea who had injured Wang Qiang.
However, if he could learn the identity of that person, the target would become clear, and he could avoid a great deal of roundabout searching.
"I already guessed you'd want to seek that person out for revenge. But if you went to the Kong Heavenly Clan's headquarters to investigate, it would be far too dangerous given your current strength. So I've already done the digging for you."
"The person who injured Wang Qiang is called Kong Dou Moyuan. His cultivation is at the ninth rank of Martial Ancestor, and he's hailed as the strongest person beneath a True Immortal in the Kong Heavenly Clan."
"So when facing this man, you must be extremely careful. His strength is extraordinary — not to be underestimated."
"At the very least, for the two of you as you are now, he is an incredibly dangerous existence."
"Furthermore, this man is extremely arrogant. He rarely resides at the Kong Heavenly Clan's headquarters. He has a place of his own where he normally cultivates, enters seclusion, and meets with guests."
"So… in the future, if you want to find him, going to this place will always turn him up." As Chu Xuanlang spoke, he handed a map to Chu Feng.
The map marked a single location — naturally, the place where Kong Dou Moyuan resided.
"Brother Chu Feng, this Kong Dou Moyuan has earned the title of the strongest beneath a True Immortal in the Kong Heavenly Clan, so he must have the skill to back it up."
"So remember — until you have absolute confidence, it would be best not to seek him out."
"After all, a gentleman's revenge is never too late, even after ten years," Chu Xuanlang reminded him once more.
"Thank you for the warning, Brother Xuanlang. We'll proceed with caution," Chu Feng said.
"If that's the case, then we shall meet again. I'll be waiting for you in the Upper Realm," Chu Xuanlang said.
"Brother Xuanlang, you're leaving already?" Chu Feng asked.
"Mm. There are important matters I need to return to handle. I'm afraid I won't be coming back for some time," Chu Xuanlang said.
"That's fine. We'll meet again in the Upper Realm someday," Chu Feng said.
"Farewell." With those words, Chu Xuanlang melted into the void and vanished without a trace.
Only Chu Feng and Zhao Hong remained.
"That guy was actually a ninth rank Martial Ancestor? No wonder even with my husband and me joining forces, we were suppressed to the point we could barely fight back." After Chu Xuanlang departed, worry clouded Zhao Hong's face.
They now knew how to find Kong Dou Moyuan, but the problem was that their strength fell far short of his.
And on top of that, her husband Wang Qiang was still waiting for the antidote.
Though she knew that with the Golden Crane True Immortal looking after him, Wang Qiang would be fine for the time being.
But as long as the poison remained undelivered, her worry could not be eased.
Right now, the urgency was overwhelming.
Zhao Hong was desperate to find the antidote — and Chu Feng felt exactly the same way.
"Chu Feng, Wang Qiang is with the Golden Crane True Immortal. He won't be in any danger for the time being, so you mustn't rush into anything."
The Queen spoke up.
