“Cheng Shao, are you talking about the Leng family?” Zhuo Qingfeng spoke in a deep voice.

“That's right, it's them.”

“The Leng family has such audacity, daring to secretly harm you, Cheng Shao. This is absolutely outrageous! Cheng Shao, wait here. I must go to the Leng family and demand an explanation.”

Fueled by anger, Zhuo Qingfeng was about to rush towards the Leng family, but was stopped by Qin Chen.

“Cheng Shao, what are you doing?” Zhuo Qingfeng said, still furious.

“Zhuo Pavilion Master, even if you reach the Leng family, what can you do? The person hasn’t been captured by us. If you rush over, you might end up giving them a chance to capture you instead, which would be even worse.”

“But isn’t there evidence here?” Zhuo Qingfeng pointed at the poison gas controlled by Qin Chen.

Qin Chen shook his head: “What kind of evidence is this? As long as they deny it, we will have no way to act.”

“Then are we just going to let this go?”

Zhuo Qingfeng was filled with anger.

“Let it go? How is that possible?” A cold light shot from Qin Chen's eyes.

These past few days, he hadn't sought trouble with the Leng family; instead, the Leng family came looking for him. If he could endure this, he wouldn’t be Qin Chen.

“Wait, I need to check if Qianxue and the others are okay!”

Suddenly, as if remembering something, Qin Chen felt a jolt in his heart and swiftly rushed towards the Alchemy Pavilion.

Moments later, You Qianxue and the others were awakened by Qin Chen. After confirming that Xiao Zhan and the others were safe, Qin Chen's heart finally eased.

That was close!

At that moment, Qin Chen felt nothing but relief.

Fortunately, the Leng family only targeted him. If they had set their sights on You Qianxue and the others, given their cultivation levels, how could they sense the existence of this poison gas? They would likely have lost their lives long ago.

After learning what had happened, You Qianxue and the others were each filled with anger.

“Everyone, don’t panic. I will settle this score, but not right now.”

Qin Chen's face was frighteningly dark.

Next, he set up a hidden monitoring formation inside the Alchemy Pavilion. Any entity, even the previous invisible poison gas, would be detected by him as soon as it entered the Alchemy Pavilion, which made him feel slightly more at ease.

After completing all of this, Qin Chen and the others regrouped.

“Zhuo Pavilion Master, I previously observed that the location the enemy occupied was closest to your refinement room, making it the most suitable place for a surprise attack on the refinement room. This means that from the beginning, they were aware of my position and came directly for me,” Qin Chen said solemnly. “This indicates that the Leng family has been fully aware of our situation.”

“Cheng Shao, are you suggesting that there is a traitor from the Leng family within the Alchemy Pavilion?” Zhuo Qingfeng's face darkened as he realized this possibility.

“Exactly.” Qin Chen nodded, his gaze gloomy.

The method they used for spying was definitely not normal; otherwise, with his and Zhuo Qingfeng's perception, they should have sensed the spying. The only possibility is that someone was leaking information.

Although the news of him and Zhuo Qingfeng in the refinement room was not a secret, it was not something that every alchemist could know, indicating that this traitor held a significant position within the Alchemy Pavilion.

“Xu Bo, you need to investigate who this traitor is immediately!” Zhuo Qingfeng said with a grim expression.

“No need,” Qin Chen suddenly waved his hand: “Elder Jinyuan and his subordinates have already been captured by the Law Enforcement Hall, yet someone still leaked information. This suggests that this person is deeply hidden within the Alchemy Pavilion and will not be easily uncovered.”

“Are we just going to let him act unchecked?” Zhuo Qingfeng said angrily.

“Of course not.” Qin Chen smiled coldly: “I remember that the Leng family's biggest foundation is their pill business, right?”
