"You were investigating that person behind the scenes earlier, weren't you? It's him." Gu Zhiqi said, turning her head to glance at Ling Yuxuan, "What, haven't you followed up on the matter?"
She had already gotten the answer when she asked earlier.
Elder Lu was afflicted with fire poison and needed the Flowing Jade Cold Lotus to suppress the fire poison.
Ling Ruoyan was the one he sent to the Poison Technique Trial Realm.
The reason he knew the Cold Lotus was in Gu Zhiqi's hands was because someone named Bao Conglu had informed him in secret.
Bao Conglu had entered the Trial Realm and had seen Gu Zhiqi in Yan City. Elder Lu found an artist, and based on Bao Conglu's description, had a portrait of Gu Zhiqi drawn.
After obtaining the portrait, Elder Lu tracked it down to Gu Zhiqi and happened to learn that the Cold Lotus had been given to Qiao Qingshu by her, so he went to the Qiao Family.
Ling Yuxuan and Ling Zhiyu listened, their expressions somewhat complicated.
