Ren Qing didn't wait for Huang Ziwang to sober up. It would probably take until the Ghost Market closed to finish that jar of Drunken Life and Dream Death, and Ren Qing had no time to waste.
He immediately returned to the Firework Hall, planning to advance to the Spine User realm then and there.
However, Ren Qing first made a trip to the Immortal Buddha Temple to stuff the note he had prepared under the Lotus Throne where Song Zongwu performed his morning recitations.
But as soon as he reached into the crevice, he felt something was wrong. The note he had left before was still there, untouched.
The note described the strange things he had noticed when he encountered the Land God in the Secret Pavilion.
Clearly, Song Zongwu hadn't been to the Immortal Buddha Temple at all in recent days.
Ren Qing decided to just leave both notes in the crevice of the Lotus Throne. He then slipped past the patrolling constables and returned to the Firework Hall the way he came.
