Even the Strong Can Capsize

"This is more than enough to deal with you." One sect master snorted coldly.

"Deal with me? You're dreaming. Actually, this whole place is saturated with poison, but you haven't noticed. Even though you managed to purge the previous toxin, you inhaled other poisons. So you'll always remain poisoned." The Devil-Realm Emissary laughed loudly.

Everyone was shocked. After carefully examining their bodies and confirming new symptoms, they all glared angrily at the Devil-Realm Emissary.

"Kid, it was you, wasn't it? Come with me." After realizing the poison was neutralized by Evan Yang, the Devil-Realm Emissary said.

"Oh?" Evan Yang wasn't afraid at all, just responded calmly. Elder Simon Spring was shocked—he absolutely didn't want Evan to fall into the Devil-Realm Emissary's hands. If Evan was gone, what would he use to refine the Dual-Heaven Pill?

"No way." Elder Simon Spring said.

"And who are you?" asked the Devil-Realm Emissary.

"I'm the sect master of the Blue Robe Sect. He's a disciple of our sect," Elder Simon Spring said.

"Oh? What a nice pair—sect master and disciple. Once I'm done with him, I'll come for you. No need to get so worked up." The Devil-Realm Emissary chuckled, then waved his hand. Elder Simon Spring tried to resist, but found he couldn't muster any strength.

"You—" Elder Simon Spring was stunned.

The Devil-Realm Emissary smiled at Evan Yang, "Let's go. Unless you want to see your sect master in trouble?"

"Fine, let's go. No need for the drama," Evan Yang replied calmly, then followed the Devil-Realm Emissary without hesitation.

The rest were left behind, anxious and trying to come up with other ways to respond. Elder Simon Spring was furious, but with Evan Yang gone, the fact was already set.

"Sect Master Spring, what do we do now?" Shen Lang asked worriedly—he certainly didn't want to die here.

"What else can we do? We wait." Elder Simon Spring replied helplessly—he couldn't muster any strength at all right now.

Evan Yang entered another space. It was dim and gray. The Devil-Realm Emissary looked at Evan and said, "How did you purge that poison? And the poison in your body—it's already gone, isn't it?"

"That's right," Evan Yang replied.

"How did you do it?" After Evan answered, the Devil-Realm Emissary pressed further.

"Do I really need to tell you?" Evan Yang smiled. He was curious about how the Devil-Realm Emissary had arrived, and why he was making such a big scene today—capturing everyone, stealing their cultivation arts.

"You really have a tough mouth. But let's see how long you can keep it up." The Devil-Realm Emissary finished speaking, and black qi surged from his entire body.

Then the black qi swept toward Evan Yang, engulfing him completely. The black mist even invaded Evan's body.

"Why aren't you giving me a pill? Just now, it looked like you gave them pills, didn't you?" Evan Yang said with a smile.

"That's because they're stupid—they thought I'd give them an antidote. But you're different. You're not poisoned now, but my technique can still drive you into qi-deviation. Let's see if you still refuse to talk then." The Devil-Realm Emissary sneered.
