389 The Spy Of The Valley Of Medicine Masters
“After all, there are so many experts. The Five Poison Sect will not dare to act rashly. This attack must be carried out behind their backs. As long as the valley master notices, he will definitely come to our aid.”
Of all the people present, only the Fifth Elder and Ye Xuan’s expressions were different.
The Fifth Elder knew what was going on. The Five Poison Sect had already made their move, and with the Five Poison Sect’s ancestor overseeing it, the other sects and the Valley of Medicine Masters were already under control. They could not even protect themselves, so how could they possibly spare time to help this place?
Ye Xuan, on the other hand, felt that things were not as simple as they had said. Thinking of what he had heard in the Five Poison Sect last time, it was just as he had expected. They would choose to make their move on the day of the birthday banquet.
!!
He guessed that those people at the banquet had already suffered an attack. The Five Poison Sect had launched a surprise attack on their base camp from two directions, and none of the sects had been spared.
The attack was fast, accurate, and ruthless. It was also in full swing, not giving anyone any time to react. It also did not give these sects any opportunity to unite. Such a plan was truly flawless.
When Li Mao saw this, he felt a little strange. He asked, “Fellow Daoist Ye, what’s wrong with you? Your expression doesn’t seem too good.”
“Don’t you think there’s something strange about this? If the Five Poison Sect really made a move, they would have made preparations in advance. Perhaps the valley master is also in trouble.”
The Third Elder suddenly heard Ye Xuan’s words and frowned. “Junior, I understand that you’re the valley master’s guest, but you can’t stay here and scare people like that.”
Immediately, many disciples voiced their agreement. “That’s right. The Misty Cloud Sect, the Divine Fire Sect, and the Tiangang Sect are all top sects. Their sect masters are also attending the banquet. How can the Five Poison Sect deal with so many experts?”
“Think about it from another perspective. There are so many masters, but the Five Poison Sect dared to attack the Valley of Medicine Masters. It can be seen that they have made a foolproof plan. Perhaps the other sects have suffered the same thing. I’m afraid the valley master’s situation over there is not good.”
If that were the case, even if the array could stop the Five Poison Sect, it would not last long.
Ye Xuan’s words left everyone speechless. He spoke with reason and evidence as if it was true.
There was no harm in thinking of the worst. Perhaps it wasn’t that Yao Tianchen and the others didn’t receive the news, but that they couldn’t even protect themselves and could not afford to care about their base camp.
Many disciples sneered, “I think you’ve been scared out of your wits by the Five Poison Sect. You can make so many connections over such a small matter.”
Only the Fifth Elder looked at Ye Xuan with uncertainty. He felt that the person in front of him was not simple. Previously, he was the one who stopped Yao Tianchen from attending the birthday celebration. Now that he said these words, it seemed like he really knew all of their plans.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the news hadn’t been leaked, the Fifth Elder would have suspected that Ye Xuan was also on the Five Poison Sect’s side. However, he was Zhou Hong’s sworn enemy and Zhou Hong had specifically asked for his life.
“If you’re so scared, then leave the Valley of Medicine Masters and hide outside for a while.”
Ye Xuan looked at the person who spoke with a thoughtful expression. The Fifth Elder had urged Yao Tianchen and the others to attend the birthday banquet, so his actions were a little suspicious.
The Fifth Elder couldn’t wait for Ye Xuan to leave. As soon as Ye Xuan went out, he would be caught by the Five Poison Sect. The Fifth Elder could do Zhou Hong a favor with that as well.
It was the Second Elder who stepped forward to smooth things over. “Now is not the time to say such things. Before the valley master returns, we must guard the Valley of Medicine Masters well.”
“Bad news. The Five Poison Sect is really attacking us, and there are quite a few of them,” a disciple hurriedly came to report.
Hearing this, everyone’s hearts couldn’t help but skip a beat, even though they were already prepared.
“Go! Let’s go out and take a look at the situation.”
Li Mao was also preparing to follow the group when he suddenly felt something being stuffed into his hand. It was a black pill. He looked up and saw that it was Ye Xuan.
“It’s best to be careful. It’ll be good for you to swallow this pill.”
This pill was the system’s detoxification elixir, which could detoxify all the rare poisons in the world.
No matter what the people in the valley thought of Ye Xuan, Li Mao was a loyal person. If Ye Xuan hadn’t saved him, he would have lost his life. Li Mao swallowed it without hesitation, showing his almost unconditional trust in Ye Xuan.
“Thank you.”
Everyone hurried to the entrance of the Valley of Medicine Masters.
Dark clouds loomed, casting a large shadow over everyone’s heads. Everyone felt an inexplicable sense of panic.
The originally clear sky darkened in an instant. A flag fluttered above the black clouds, and a huge poisonous insect fluttered in the wind as if it was coming to life, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws at the people of the Valley of Medicine Masters. It was the symbol of the Five Poison Sect.
Many disciples of the Five Poison Sect had come. Among them, there were many people with pale faces and green pupils. They stared coldly at the Valley of Medicine Masters, their eyes devoid of any human emotion.
“Isn’t this the Misty Cloud Sect’s Senior Brother Zhao? I’ve even met him once.”
“There’s also Junior Brother Li from the Tiangang Sect. He bought medicinal pills from me last time. Why is he with the people from the Five Poison Sect now?”
“Don’t tell me you guys have betrayed your own sect!”
The crowd was bewildered. They saw a few familiar faces in the crowd. They were all from other sects, but for some reason, they were with the Five Poison Sect. They didn’t respond when their names were called.
Could it be that they had already joined the Five Poison Sect? Now that they thought about it, this was the only possibility. Everyone was shocked and suspicious, and they all made guesses. Only Ye Xuan knew the answer.
“Stop shouting. They’ve already lost their minds. These are the disciples who went missing in the last few weeks. They were later captured by the Five Poison Sect and turned into poison men.”
When the Fifth Elder heard this, he almost jumped in shock. He looked over in surprise and suspicion. How did Ye Xuan know about this?
Even if Ye Xuan knew, so what? The poison men army would soon trample the Valley of Medicine Masters and with how it would generally go, these people would not have the power to fight back at all.
Thinking of this, the Fifth Elder felt at ease, but he didn’t know that his every move was being watched by Ye Xuan.
There was definitely something strange about the Fifth Elder. He might be a spy planted by the Five Poison Sect.
