The banquet at Huang Jing's mansion (Part 2)

Huang Jing could only sigh, fully understanding Fan Lan's situation. To cheer her up, he suddenly told her about a rumor.

"As far as I remember, I was recently told about a rumor that a certain alchemist who can purify pills to 90% and above has visited the southern continent. His name is... let me see... Gu Heng, right?" Huang Jing raised his eyebrows and nodded, "Yes, that's right, I remember. Gu Heng."

"Never heard of him," Fan Lan replied and tilted her head to the side, asking, "What about you?"

"I've never heard of him either. It can also be said about my intelligence networks. It seems that this is one of those cultivators who were in seclusion and decided to come out into the world," Huang Jing suggested and, looking at Fan Lan, offered, "Why don't you try to contact him? They say he's quite friendly and if you offer him favorable terms, he's likely to agree."
