Mu Chongyang said with certainty, “After Yun Yan met with trouble, I sealed off the Passages to the Tuoluo Plane.

It’s impossible for him to have left the Tuoluo Plane.”

Long Yan, with only Void God Cultivation, could only leave the Tuoluo Plane through a Teleportation Array, which had already been sealed off by the Misty Rain Building.

It was impossible for Long Yan to have had the chance to escape from the Tuoluo Plane.

“As long as he’s still in the Tuoluo Plane, even if I have to dig three feet into the ground and turn the entire Tuoluo Plane upside down, I must find him and tear him into a thousand pieces,”

Chu Xiong said through clenched teeth.

Long Yan was already on his death list.

Without killing Long Yan, he’d find it hard to calm his rage.

“Young Master Chu, rest assured capturing Long Yan is only a matter of time,”

Mu Chongyang spoke with a tone of assurance.

“Tower Master Mu, this incident shouldn’t be blamed on the Misty Rain Building.

As long as the Misty Rain Building hands over the culprit to the Chu Family, we’ll consider this matter resolved,”

Chu Yuqin said to Mu Chongyang, offering him a figurative Calming Pill.

Upon hearing this, Mu Chongyang and several Elders from the Misty Rain Building all sighed with relief, finally feeling the weight lifted from their hearts.

“Thank you, Miss Chu!”

Mu Chongyang stood up and respectfully gave a deep bow to Chu Yuqin.

“I have come here this time with another matter to attend to as well,”

Chu Yuqin continued, “It is said that there is a Netherworld Poison Forest in the Tuoluo Plane.

Even with your strength, Tower Master Mu, I hear you dare not enter it.

Is that true?”

Her knowledge about the Netherworld Poison Forest was also limited.

“Miss Chu intends to go to the Netherworld Poison Forest?”

Startled by her words, Mu Chongyang instantly inquired, looking at Chu Yuqin with an expression of shock.

“Indeed.”

Chu Yuqin nodded, then added, “I am in the process of refining an Elixir and I need to find a rare Medicinal Material.

This Medicinal Material grows by absorbing Poison gas, so perhaps it can be found within the Netherworld Poison Forest.”

Chu Yuqin was an Alchemist, a Genius Alchemist at that, and had a certain reputation in the Eastern Wasteland Plane.

Therefore, her status in the Chu Family was definitely above Chu Xiong’s.

“Miss Chu, I advise you not to risk the Adventure,”

Mu Chongyang suggested, “The Netherworld Poison Forest is extremely dangerous, and the Poison gas inside is overwhelmingly potent.

Even I wouldn’t dare to venture deep inside.”

The Netherworld Poison Forest was known in the Tuoluo Plane as a perilous area.

Many Martial Artists who entered it for Adventure ended up buried there, and those who managed to escape often succumbed to poisoning and perished.

Mu Chongyang’s Cultivation had reached the True God Fifth Level, and even he wouldn’t dare to delve deep into the Netherworld Poison Forest.

“I’m aware that the Netherworld Poison Forest is no simple matter, but I’ve made some preparations,”

Chu Yuqin explained.

“If Miss Chu insists on going to the Netherworld Poison Forest, then I shall accompany you,”

Mu Chongyang made up his mind and was prepared to take the risk.

“There’s no need, you better focus on catching Long Yan.

When I emerge from the Netherworld Poison Forest, I hope you can hand Long Yan over to me,”

Chu Yuqin said.

Mu Chongyang wouldn’t be able to resist the Poison gas; even if he entered the Netherworld Poison Forest, he wouldn’t be of any help.

Mu Chongyang nodded, the pressure on him was no small matter; if Chu Yuqin came out of the Netherworld Poison Forest and he still hadn’t captured Long Yan, he would have no way to explain himself.

“By the way, have Wang Cheng come to see me,”

Chu Yuqin told Mu Chongyang.

“Yes, I’ll see to it right away,”

Mu Chongyang nodded, and then he left the Guest Greeting Hall immediately to personally summon Wang Cheng.

An hour later, Mu Chongyang arrived at the Guest Greeting Hall with Wang Cheng in tow.

“Miss Chu!”

Wang Cheng, upon seeing Chu Yuqin, was momentarily stunned, captivated by her beauty.

After snapping back to reality, he promptly paid his respects to her.

“You may all leave.”

Chu Yuqin said to Mu Chongyang.

Afterward, Mu Chongyang and the several Elders from the Misty Rain Building left the Guest Greeting Hall and closed the gate behind them.

“Please, take a seat.”

Chu Yuqin gestured for Wang Cheng to sit opposite her.

“I have long heard of Miss Chu’s unparalleled beauty.

Seeing it today, your reputation is indeed well-deserved.”

After Wang Cheng sat down, he said this to Chu Yuqin, with his admiration clear in his words.

“Tell me about what happened when Long Yan killed Mu Yunyan.”

Chu Yuqin looked at Wang Cheng and said softly.

Wang Cheng nodded, then recounted his fabricated version of the events.

His tone conveyed deep loathing and the semblance was so convincing, it was as if he was recounting a true story.

After listening to Wang Cheng, Chu Yuqin’s brows furrowed slightly.

Although his tale was seamless, she still felt that something was amiss.

“Perhaps I’m overthinking it.

Once the Misty Rain Building captures him, everything will come to light.”

Chu Yuqin thought to herself.

“Miss Chu, the Misty Rain Building has not been unkind to Long Yan, yet he committed such a heinous act.

He must be torn to pieces to pay for his crimes,” Wang Cheng said.

“Do you have a personal grievance with Long Yan?” Chu Yuqin asked.

“An irreconcilable feud!”

Wang Cheng spat out four words.

Every time he recalled the scene of kneeling down that day, he itched to tear Long Yan into shreds.

“Miss Chu, Long Yan has merged with a Strange Fire.

If you catch him, you must try to obtain that Strange Fire.

As an Alchemist, merging with a Strange Fire would be of great benefit to your pill refining,” Wang Cheng told Chu Yuqin.

“Strange Fire?”

Upon hearing this, Chu Yuqin’s eyes suddenly sharpened, and her expression trembled slightly.

Strange Fire was considered a treasure in the eyes of Alchemists.

If she could obtain one, she could become a Direct Disciple upon entering Medicine King Valley.

Chu Xiong also showed a flicker of emotion.

Strange Fire was a rare and precious treasure of heaven and earth, elusive and coveted.

Acquiring one could fully compensate for the Chu Family’s losses this time.

“Does Long Yan truly possess a Strange Fire?”

Chu Yuqin suddenly asked, her heartbeat accelerating.

“Absolutely true.

This isn’t a secret.

All the people at the Misty Rain Building know,” Wang Cheng nodded in confirmation.

Initially, he had wanted to claim the Strange Fire on Long Yan’s body for himself, but now that the Chu Family was involved, his chance of acquiring it was slim.

He might as well generously share this information with Chu Yuqin, in hopes of gaining her favor.

“We must capture Long Yan, even if it’s just for that Strange Fire,” Chu Yuqin resolved silently, her own designs set on the Strange Fire that Long Yan possessed.

Then, Chu Yuqin asked Wang Cheng, “Wang Cheng, would you be willing to join the Chu Family?”

Wang Cheng was also a Pill Refining Genius with some renown in the Tuoluo Plane.

Moreover, with the backing of a Life-threatening Poison Master, such a figure joining the Chu Family would be advantageous.

With the Chu Family’s support, Wang Cheng could certainly become a Pill Refining Master serving the Chu Family.

“Of course, I am willing,” Wang Cheng replied without hesitation, “I have long wished to join the Chu Family but never had the opportunity.”

As he spoke, Wang Cheng brought out an exquisite box and said to Chu Yuqin, “Miss Chu, for our first meeting I have prepared a modest gift.

Please accept it.”

With that, Wang Cheng stood up and presented the box before Chu Yuqin.

Chu Yuqin could clearly see through Wang Cheng’s intentions.

After pondering for a moment, she reached out her jade hand and took the box from Wang Cheng’s hands.
