Qi Suian returned to the location of his previous safe house, but he didn't stay within the Yan Kingdom's former territory.
Just as the AI had said, King Zhen Ao might know something.
Perhaps this was his 'protagonist halo' helping him out long ago, only he hadn't obtained the Taiyin Refining Technique back then.
He hadn't realized it at the time, so now he had naturally returned to wait.
As for where King Zhen Ao was hibernating or when he would emerge, that was unclear.
The giant clam was just a foot soldier; of course it wouldn't know.
Qi Suian had also conducted a carpet search of the surrounding area using his reconnaissance network, but he found nothing.
He had also considered going over to the Ice Continent to see if he could find a so-called Blood Heart Worm King.
After all, as cold as the Ice Continent was, it still had cold-resistant insects.
In theory, it was possible for a Blood Heart Worm King to have appeared on the Ice Continent.
