However, Zou Feng wasn't in a hurry. His Drunken Immortal Moon Gazing Step was sufficient for the time being, and it wasn't like he absolutely had to achieve a breakthrough before acting as Teng County's Guardian.
Oddly enough, Teng County hadn't contacted him at all over the past few days.
But that was to be expected. By now, Wang Wenjing had likely arrived in Qingchuan City and was using every means at her disposal to find Teng County.
Under such circumstances, she was likely in a constant state of hiding. She wouldn't dare contact him unless it was absolutely necessary.
Contacting him would only increase the risk of prematurely exposing him—her backup.
Five days later, in the afternoon, there was a knock on the courtyard gate.
"Excuse me, is Doctor Zou home?"
After telling Tian Yun to be ready to flee at a moment's notice, and after confirming there was no unusual activity nearby, Zou Feng finally went to open the door.
Outside stood a hunched old man.
