Yuan Mobai went to Ailao Mountain in the southwest because of his private connections... no, scratch that, it was due to his personal network, specifically Elder Sun Li of the Samsara Abyss.
According to Sun Li, Zheng Dongying had once visited Ailao Mountain.
Zheng Dongying was originally a High Merit Elder of the Mount Shu Sect and a cultivator in the Seventh Layer of Heaven Realm of the Daoist Artifact Refining Sect.
She was a direct disciple of Mount Shu's Supreme Elder Wei Qiyue. Two years ago, during the shocking events at the Summit, she, along with Wei Qiyue, Fu Dongsen, Hong Jie, and others, left for Qingxiao Manor and became a member of the Mortal Tao Country.
According to Sun Li, he had chanced upon Zheng Dongying in the Ailao Mountains in the southwest. They had merely passed each other without significant interaction.
