"Hmm, You must be talking about Qiang Wuhan.. Truth be told, I don't know much about him myself. Ku Wang knows more about him than me. He had visited the Village head quite often" Hou Ming answered Zhu Long in a sincere manner.
"Hmm? That seems odd, Why don't you know much about him?" Zhu Long was confused to find out that Hou Ming hadn't known much about the Qiang Village head. He was in this region in search of an individual so Zhu Long was sure that Hou Ming had already investigated the higher ranked cultivators of the village which would have included the Village Head.
Hou Ming looked at Zhu Long in a dissatisfied expression and said," Little brother Lin, I was so busy concocting this pill that I left some of the weaker individuals to Ku Wang to investigate, Hence the reason that Ku Wang had visited Qiang Wuhan's Residence very often. But I did make an exception for Ku Wang to not visit Elder Kong. I had felt some demon qi within his residence and didn't want him to risk getting into a battle with some demons so early. Now That I think of it, I wonder if Little brother Lin has come in contact with that Elder Kong?" Hou Ming was curious on whether Zhu Long had met with Elder Kong or not. He was sure that If Zhu Long had met with him, he would have probably dealt with the demons within Elder Kong's vicinity and maybe even Elder Kong himself.
Zhu Long looked towards Hou Ming with a small smile,"I had met with Elder Kong and I can agree with Senior Brother Ming's words that there was a demon within his Residence. I have dealt with that Imp so I guess there are no problems there. At first, I had thought that Elder Kong himself was a traitor of the Village but then I found out that wasn't the case. He was being forced by the imp's so called Young Master. If I had to make a guess, I would say that this young master is either related to is even the individual you were talking to me about.." Zhu Long narrated everything that had happened in Elder Kong's fortress without trying to miss any important points.
Elder Kong looked surprised when he heard Zhu Long's story. He thought to himself,' HAH! This kid is really smart, Acting as a pig to lure the tiger. It is even more surprising to hear that he was not afraid of the possible poison in the tea and just drank it like nothing. He sure has some balls.'

Zhu Long smiled wryly and said,"I had been trained in poison resistance since a very young age. I am immune to almost all the common types of poison found in the Northern Continent. I was confident that those poison were also found here in the Southern Continent so I took a Huge Gamble. But I was still lucky as Elder Kong had used a weak poison that puts one to sleep."
Hou Ming finally understood the situation,'He must have a good teacher.. I'm not sure that there are many people out there who would be so cautious. No matter, in the end, It's only advantages for Little Brother lin' He resolved as he heard Zhu Long's reasoning.
Zhu Long though for some time, a sudden question popped into his mind,"I wonder, since when had Senior Brother Ming started to observe me? I had a feeling that someone was watching me for some time now and after to Brother Ku for some time, I came to the conclusion that it must have been Senior Brother Ming who was observing me, am i correct?" Zhu Long's eyes were cold,his expression was calm but Hou Ming could feel some aggressive aura emanating from Zhu Long's body.
Hou Ming's Body shook, his mind froze,'I was correct, it seems like Little Brother Lin had felt my presence when I was observing him. But even so, his mood took a complete 180 degree turn. From a calm and humble tone to an aggressive and murderous tone, his mood took a complete 180 degree turn. I guess, I must apologize and answer his question honestly, I'd rather not make an enemy with someone like him." Hou Ming had started to sweat all over his body, he didn't feel safe when Zhu Long had shown this side of himself.
"I must apologize to Little brother Lin, I had to observe you for some time. I had actually started to observe you just after you had killed the Demon Scout leader. I originally thought of you as the person we were looking for but soon after, i Came to the conclusion that you weren't him. Then I noticed that you were heading towards the mansion so I observed for every once a while, i Was even lucky enough to witness you battle with that demon beast. Then, I stopped watching you and concentrated more on concocting my pill. The last time that I had observed you was when you woke up, I just wanted to check if you were alright. So, I must ask for Little Brother Lin to excuse my rude manners.." Hou Ming was very sincere and meant everything that he had just said to ZHu Long. He knew that It was extremely rude to snoop around and watch others as they went on with their daily lives but had done that so himself.
Zhu Long's murderous intent started to disperse but his face looked as cold as ever. He Looked at Hou Ming, thinking for some time. After a few seconds, he answered"I don't mind That Senior Brother Ming had been observing me. I understand your ground and If i were in your place, i would have probably done the same thing. I must also apologize to Senior Brother Ming for my aggressive behavior."
Hou Ming felt relieved,'Little brother Lin says that he has the power to contend with those at the Mid'-Nascent stage but at that moment, his aura itself had made me feel so insecure. I'm sure that little brother will be someone very powerful in the future!' He thought as he remembered Zhu Long's powerful murderous aura.
