Wilbur clenched his jaw when he thought about that. He thought to himself, 'Oh, come on, Wilbur! You've been cultivating in the mirror dimension for a thousand and five hundred years! I can't believe you couldn't even save Senior Horne!'
He was unsure whether Felix was alive. He wanted to save Felix, so he changed his appearance and entered Buck Town with the Alberts' town token.
He arrived at a tavern and ordered two jugs of wine, then sat there drinking while eavesdropping on the conversations around him.
Wilbur had helped a cultivator drive a wild bear away just before entering town. Then, he learned from that cultivator that the best place to gather various intel in Buck Town was the tavern.
Most cultivators in Buck Town enjoyed drinking. Therefore, regardless of their status, the cultivators would go to the tavern to drink. They would inevitably reveal some intel once they were intoxicated.
In fact, many of the killings in Buck Town happened outside of the tavern. That was because no one wanted their secrets to be exposed, yet some people enjoyed running their mouths on other people's private matters.
Therefore, the tavern was also a dangerous place.
Wilbur was a private person who never pried on others' privacy. He also did not enjoy drinking, so he usually avoided places like taverns. However, he had no choice but to come to the tavern since Felix had been captured. He needed more information to rescue him.
He picked up his drink and took a sip. The customers to his left began to chat at that moment.
"Do you know about what happened at the Azure Dragon Lake recently?" someone asked.
"Yes, I heard that the Reyne family sent a lot of people to kill all the cultivators near Azure Dragon Lake. Rumor has it that a traitor escaped from Azure Dragon Lake and is hiding nearby."
"So, why would they kill all the nearby cultivators just because there was a traitor?"
