In just three days, Chen Zheng had acquired many precious treasures. With his exquisite Fire Control Technique and experience as a first-level alchemist, he successfully refined thirty Yuan Pei Pills, not to mention those he prepared for Huang Hua and the others. In this mysterious world, Huang Hua had also begun to cultivate True Qi, successfully condensing it within his body. During this period, he returned to Nanhai Stockade several times to reunite with his family. Kuang Yuanyuan naturally accompanied him. He had initially wanted to invite Chen Zheng along, but Chen Zheng was too busy refining Yuan Pei Pills to go.
Everything seemed tranquil until the fourth day, when the peace was shattered.
A woman claiming to be from the Gu Qi lineage appeared in Nanhai Stockade and sought out Chen Zheng. Accompanied by Kuang Nie, she arrived at Chen Zheng's small courtyard.
Chen Zheng gave her a glance and nodded slightly.
The woman asked, "Did you kill the Red Mother?"
