“You want to escape?!”

An Jiuyue would not let Master Ling leave so easily. She held the whip with one hand and swung it at him again.

In order to dodge her attack, Master Ling spun a few times on the ground before narrowly avoiding it. However, his face bore a streak of blood.

“Do you think you can stop me?”

He smiled coldly, wiped the blood off his face, and flew away.

On the roof, An Jiuyue took a deep breath as she watched Master Ling leave.

“Master, you won’t be able to catch him tonight,” Wei Na reminded her in the space.

An Jiuyue pursed her lips.

She was aware that Qian Jiyun was still entangled with the poisonous sacrificial warriors and could not leave. Driving Master Ling away was already a significant achievement. She knew capturing him was impossible.

“He got off easy!”

By the time Qian Jiyun and the other two killed all the poisonous sacrificial warriors, an hour had passed.

He flew up to the roof with the intention of carrying An Jiuyue down. However, he remembered that he might have been contaminated by the poison from the sacrificial warriors, so he did not touch her.

“Should we set those sacrificial warriors on fire?” he asked.

“No.” An Jiuyue shook her head quickly.

If they set fire to them, they would be doomed.

“I’ll go and take a look first before we discuss how to deal with this.”

“Okay,” Qian Jiyun replied. They flew to the location where the poisonous sacrificial warriors had fallen.

Yan Feng and Bai Ze were also present. They were discussing whether they should set fire to the corpses of the poisonous sacrificial warriors.

Everyone in the world probably thought of the same solution to deal with poison—to burn it in a fire.

“If we really burn them, everyone in Jun Lin Hall will be finished.”

“Sister-in-Law.”

“Mistress.”

Yan Feng and Bai Ze turned to look at An Jiuyue.

“Sister-in-Law, what do you mean?”

Was she saying that the poisonous sacrificial warriors could not be burned? They could not possibly come back to life after being exposed to fire, right?

“This poison is very potent. Even if it’s burned by fire, the toxins will disperse into the air, poisoning everyone nearby,” An Jiuyue explained.

In that case, too many people in Jun Lin Hall would be poisoned. It was likely that Master Ling had planned this.

Unfortunately for him, he encountered her. Although she could not cure the poison for the time being, she could think of a way to control it and prevent the bodies of these poisonous sacrificial warriors from being burned.

“Go and deal with the other corpses. Leave the poisonous sacrificial warriors’ corpses to me.”

“Well…” Yan Feng looked at An Jiuyue, then turned to look at his master.

“Didn’t you hear Jiuyue?” Qian Jiyun glanced at him and asked in a deep voice.

“Yes, Master, Mistress. I’ll deal with the corpses now,” Yan Feng replied.

Handling the corpses was quite troublesome. They could dispose of the bodies as they saw fit, but uncovering the family connections behind those corpses was more challenging.

However, this was not a problem for him. He would definitely be able to uncover everything if he was given some time.

“Brother, Sister-in-Law, I’ll help Yan Feng,” Bai Ze said to the two of them and left with Yan Feng.

“Jiuyue, what should we do with these corpses?” Qian Jiyun looked at them worriedly.

There was no better way than to burn them. If the poison spread, it would cause a lot of trouble.. Unless…
