Novel Full Chapter 1509 - 569: Entering the Island
"Are you a disciple of the Li Sect?"
Just by looking at the man’s attire, everyone had already recognized his identity.
Wen Qi stepped forward but did not hastily approach:
"You’ve been poisoned by the smile flower.
"Where is Gu Qingsong? And those who came to the island with you, where are they?"
"Smile flower?"
The man was stunned: "So we were poisoned by the smile flower...
"Hall Master, Four Dragons.
"We followed Gu Zhangling and Shi Shengtian the elder into this island, and after exploring for a short time...
"We were trapped in the formation.
"Among the disciples of the Eight sects, there are many who are skilled in formations, passed down from the Dige lineage. Therefore, this Eight Diagrams Mysterious Formation couldn’t trap us.
"However, this formation is extremely vast, spread throughout the forest.
"We ran left and right, seeking a way out, yet unexpectedly, in less than one incense stick’s time, the disciples and every one of us felt weak in our hands and feet, our bodies became fatigue.
"Upon examining our pulse, we discovered that it was indeed due to poison.
"Gu Zhangling guessed that those Nanhai experts who entered the island earlier must have been poisoned as well.
"That’s why they never returned.
"We intended to use signal arrows to inform the brothers on the ship of the island’s dangers.
"Yet unexpectedly, before we could shoot the arrow, someone emerged from the forest and attacked.
"The leader shouted ’Capture them all,’ and Gu Zhangling was the first to be taken.
"The others fought desperately but unfortunately their martial arts were useless and we were all captured.
"I was fortunate enough to escape here, under the protection of several fellow disciples, attempting to escape this formation and report to the Hall Master.
"Unfortunately, upon reaching here, I’m powerless and can only attempt to expel the poison by meditation.
"Just now, hearing the commotion, I thought it was those people attacking.
"Unexpectedly, it’s the Hall Master himself."
After these words, everyone nodded slightly.
This formation was laid out by someone, hidden with the smile flower poison, truly unpredictable.
The scent of the smile flower resembles the trees, within Dragon King Hall, some are skilled in formations, and others in swordsmanship, yet none are proficient in medicine and poison.
Unable to discover this aspect, it was indeed understandable.
Moreover, this person explained the details of the island entry clearly, confirming he indeed is a disciple of the Li sect, not disguised as an outsider.
Wen Qi immediately said:
"I see, the Hall Master knew you were gone for long with no return. Concerned for your safety, knowing the island’s perils, he came personally."
The Dragon King Hall disciple, after listening, was stunned:
"This... The Hall Master possesses a body worth Ten Thousand Gold, what merit do we have to place the Hall Master in danger personally?
"If the Hall Master is harmed, it would be hard to forgive even if we died a hundred times."
"Enough."
Su Mo waved his hand: "Please stand up..."
Speaking to this point, he glanced at Little Situ, who took out an elixir from his bosom and said:
"The poison of the smile flower actually doesn’t require a cure.
"Once you leave this place, the poison will dissipate quickly with some rest.
"For now, consume a Detoxification Pill to temporarily relieve the poison within you.
"Later, I’ll give you an Antidote Pill so you needn’t worry about the smile flower poison."
The Li Sect disciple immediately thanked him profusely.
But then saw Su Mo suddenly turn to look into the forest, smiling slightly:
"Now that you’re here, why not show yourself?"
After speaking, he snapped his fingers.
The sound of rushing wind broke the air, directly entering the forest.
A bang echoed, followed by an ’ouch’ shout.
Wen Qi glanced:
"Kanwu..."
With that, he leapt into action, his two Judge’s Pens suddenly moved.
You heard Su Mo say:
"Leave him alive."
"Yes."
Upon hearing this, his figure disappeared among the trees.
Only two sounds of fighting were heard, followed by a body soaring into the air.
When Wen Qi appeared again, he already held a small thin shadow.
He flung it to the ground.
Su Mo looked at the man, his build was thin and slender, dressed in azure, his eyes filled with fear.
Su Mo raised an eyebrow:
"Who are you?"
The man seemed angry, but aware of the saying that a warrior with no vengeance before him bit his teeth and said:
"You... What kind of people are you?
"What conspiracy do you have coming to our island?"
"How dare you!"
Wen Qi angrily shouted:
"Before you is our Dragon King Hall Master in person.
"If you dare be disrespectful, beware for your life."
The man, upon hearing this, seemed unable to contain his fear, hurriedly covered his head with his hands:
"You... You can’t kill me.
"Our Island Master hasn’t killed any of you, only wants to drive you away.
"If you kill me, the Island Master will surely avenge me."
With these words, everyone exchanged glances.
Su Mo smiled slightly:
"I see, but we don’t know your honorable name yet?"
The man looked up at Su Mo, opened his mouth but upon seeing Wen Qi, instinctively lowered his head.
Su Mo smiled:
"Fear not, I’m here, he won’t harm you."
"Really?"
The man looked up at Su Mo, then whispered:
"My name is Leng Yan...
"Still, it’s redundant for you to ask, I won’t answer your questions.
"The Island Master said outsiders are treacherous, ruthless.
"They want to grab the islanders, seize our food, learn our martial arts, take our wives.
"If I tell you too much, the islanders will suffer because of me.
"Hence, even if tortured, I won’t say a word!"
