391 The Two People Who Stood Tall In The Crowd

Blood stained the communication jade token red, and even the Valley of Medicine Masters disciples felt a few drops of warm blood on their faces.

Only the creepy sound of chewing and half a broken limb could be heard.

The jade token fell to the ground, but it did not break immediately. One could see that the Misty Cloud Sect’s side was already covered in wolves. There was blood and the corpses of disciples everywhere. For a moment, the Valley of Medicine Masters disciples were somewhat silent.

“Do you see this? If you don’t surrender, this will be your end.”

The disciples of the Five Poison Sect were all smug. The black cloud-like venomous insects around them could not wait any longer. The buzzing of their wings pressed down on everyone’s nerves.

At this moment, the Fifth Elder suddenly said, “I think what they said makes sense. A wise man submits to circumstances. We should surrender. Why are we still putting up stubborn resistance?”

No one expected that the first one to bow to the Five Poison Sect would be the Fifth Elder when even the disciples did not show any fear.

The Second Elder seemed to realize something. He thought of the Fifth Elder’s previous actions and was suddenly enlightened. “So it was you who destroyed-”

Before he could finish his words, his face turned red and instantly turned into the color of a pig’s liver. Even his breathing became difficult. It was obvious that he was poisoned.

“Second Elder, what happened to you?”

The other elders were about to go over to check on the situation when they suddenly stopped in their tracks and their expressions turned ugly.

Not only the Second Elder, but the others also showed signs of being poisoned. Their lips turned blue, and they immediately took antidotes, but they couldn’t cure the poison. They only slowed the spread of the poison.

To be able to restrain them in such a way was definitely the work of the Five Poison Sect. Only the Fifth Elder could do it without anyone knowing because the other elders were not prepared at all.

The other disciples were all stunned by this sudden change. First, it was the Five Poison Sect that had attacked them, and then it was revealed that there was a traitor in the Valley of Medicine Masters, and the traitor actually turned out to be the Fifth Elder.

“You actually poisoned us! This is too despicable, what has the Valley of Medicine Masters done to you that you would betray the valley master?”

Although the Fifth Elder’s status and strength were not the highest in the valley, he was usually affable and was willing to guide the disciples, so he was respected by many. No one would have thought that he would do such a thing.

“There are too many things that you all have let me down. With my ability and means, I could have become the great elder, but the valley master didn’t put me in a good position and made me bow down to someone else. What right does the great elder, that ignorant man, have?!”

Without his hypocritical mask, the Fifth Elder’s true ambition and nature were exposed at this moment. He revealed a gloating smile.

“The valley master and the great elder are lucky this time. Otherwise, I would have really wanted them to witness this scene with their own eyes. But I don’t think it’ll be easy on the Five Poison Sect’s ancestor’s side either.”

The Second Elder was heartbroken. “Back then, the valley master saw that you were too paranoid and extreme in your actions, so he wanted to train you. He never thought that you would still walk on such a crooked path. You have really let down the valley master’s efforts to nurture you!”

The Fifth Elder looked disdainful. “Nurture? What kind of nurturing is this? He’s clearly trying to suppress me.”

“Why are you talking so much nonsense with this despicable man? His conscience has been eaten by dogs.”

The Third Elder was a hot-tempered person. If he had not been poisoned, he would have taught the Fifth Elder a lesson.

Although the Valley of Medicine Masters was skilled in refining pills and detoxification techniques, the Five Poison Sect had come in full force and was specifically targeting them. Even Yao Tianchen had suffered from this poison, not to mention them.

All of them were like fish on a chopping board, completely unable to fight back. They had led the wolf into the house and did not notice the Fifth Elder’s strange behavior. The Fifth Elder had put on such a good act. Now, it was too late for them to regret it.

The Five Poison Sect was getting impatient. “Why are you talking so much nonsense with these people? Hurry up and do it.”

Because of the Fifth Elder, they did not choose to make a move at the first moment, and they did not need to spend much effort, the people of the Valley of Medicine Masters no longer had the ability to resist.

The disciples immediately became alert. They stood in front of the poisoned elders and formed a human wall. In the eyes of the Five Venoms, such a defense was nothing and could be easily broken.

“Fifth Elder, don’t keep making mistakes.”

The Fifth Elder’s expression was ruthless as he said in a low voice, “It’s your fault, you’re so stubborn, do you really want me to bathe the Valley of Medicine Masters in blood?”

The Fifth Elder was not willing to go that far, not because he was soft-hearted, but because if everyone died, the Valley of Medicine Masters would only be an empty shell, and there would be no point in him becoming the valley master.

He wanted to see these elders and disciples look at him with respect and fear as he became a man above all!

Seeing the Fifth Elder who looked like he had gone berserk, the other elders could not help but shake their heads. “You’re really incurable.”

“You’re the ones who are hopeless. I’m just judging the situation. For the sake of our old friendship, if you surrender, I’ll plead for mercy and spare your lives.”

The Fifth Elder’s charitable tone made the people of the Valley of Medicine Masters feel very disdainful.

“We’re not like you, a despicable villain. We will rise and fall with the Valley of Medicine Masters!”

The Fifth Elder’s expression was ruthless. “You’re all so stubborn and refuse to do it unless you’re forced to. I’d like to see how powerful your bones are.”

Black poisonous smoke rose in the wind, floating inside and outside the Valley of Medicine Masters.

“Cough cough-”

Everyone hurriedly covered their mouths and noses, but it was no use. The poison was pervasive, and as long as it touched the skin, it would be like maggots in tarsal bones.

The disciples’ faces were pale and they felt dizzy. They couldn’t even stand steadily, let alone use their spiritual power.

They couldn’t help but reveal a look of despair. Was the Valley of Medicine Masters going to be doomed today?

Just when everyone had given up…

“What’s going on with them?” a slightly puzzled voice asked.

There were only two people present who were not affected. Their presence attracted the attention of the Five Poison Sect.

They were Ye Xuan and Li Mao.
