As Canglang finally fell to the ground, everyone in the Dugus family looked on with satisfaction, and also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Kill me!"
Canglang endured the intense pain and roared at Ye Cangtian.
"No rush, no rush."
Ye Cangtian waved his hand and continued with a teasing tone, "There are still some questions that need your answers. First, tell me why you impersonated a member of the Black Wind Sect."
Hmm?
At this question, the Dugus family, still reveling in their victory, immediately turned their attention.
Was Canglang not a member of the Black Wind Sect? How did Ye Cangtian guess this?
"What are you talking about? I don't understand!" Canglang stared at Ye Cangtian, gritting his teeth.
Ye Cangtian smiled slightly, having anticipated that Canglang would not admit it. He then said, "Don't be anxious, I'll tell you slowly."
Firstly, during the mission, Canglang did not attack Duguling together with the members of the Black Wind Sect, nor did he leave with them.
Secondly, based on Ye Cangtian's current understanding of the Black Wind Sect's strength, he knew that their members were generally weaker. Those above the Profound level could serve as minor captains or even hall masters.
With such strength, it was extremely difficult for them to assemble a team of cultivators above the Profound level.
The last point was the Bloodthirsty Mist Array that the Black Wind Sect had recently acquired. The formidable power of the Bloodthirsty Mist Array had spread throughout the sect, and basically, everyone practiced it.
Combining these three points, Ye Cangtian concluded that Canglang was definitely not a member of the Black Wind Sect.
Upon hearing this, the Dugus family members finally understood, and their gazes fell upon Canglang again. They wanted to know which force Canglang belonged to!
"Heh heh, Ye Cangtian, you truly are extraordinary, your analysis is well-reasoned!"
"You are correct, I am not a member of the Black Wind Sect. I merely used them as a cover, and I can admit to all of that."
"However, the force behind me is not something you are worthy of knowing. I advise you not to waste your efforts..."
Canglang said with a mocking smile to Ye Cangtian.
Simultaneously, after speaking, a dagger appeared in his hand, and he plunged it directly into his chest.
Ye Cangtian did not stop him from doing any of this. Since the opponent was determined to die, even if he prevented the suicide, he would not obtain any useful information.
With that thought, he turned and walked to Duguling, saying, "Senior, I know some methods of detoxification. Let me examine you."
"No need, I can still suppress the poison in my body for now. You should go and check on Lianyu and the others first!"
Duguling quickly waved his hand. He was more concerned about Dugulianyu and his son at the moment.
They had been severely injured by Canglang while trying to stop him, and coupled with the poison in their bodies, they were likely in the most critical condition.
Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian nodded. Just as he turned to leave, he heard Dugulianyu's voice.
"Mr. Ye, I am fine on my end. I have already taken the Great Return Pill and can hold on!"
"You should go and check on my elder brother and Ling'er first!"
"They are the Patriarch and heir of the Dugus family. Something absolutely cannot happen to them."
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian pondered for a moment before nodding. What they said was indeed correct.
So, he turned around again and looked at Duguling, making a gesture.
It was as if he was saying, although your brotherly affection is deep, don't delay. There are many others to save around here!
Feeling Ye Cangtian's gaze, Duguling sighed and rolled up his sleeve, extending his hand.
After a short while, Ye Cangtian used the Zhou Tian circulation method to expel the toxins from Duguling's body. Since the poisoning was not severe, it did not take too long.
Next was Duguling.
The poison was also successfully expelled.
After the two of them, the highest in seniority in the Dugus family was Dugulianyu. Ye Cangtian walked over, but just then, Dugulianyu's voice was heard again.
"Mr. Ye, I can still hold on. Please detoxify others."
"They are all the pillars of the Dugus family!"
Dugulianyu's sincerity was evident, and Ye Cangtian did not suspect much before nodding and moving on to others.
After all, they all needed detoxification, and no one could escape. It was merely a matter of sequence.
The members of the Dugus family were all impressed by Dugulianyu's selfless attitude and cast grateful glances at him.
It was said that he did not even care about his own life and his son's, asking Ye Cangtian to treat them first. Such an action was truly befitting of the second-in-command of the Dugus family.
...
One by one, the Dugus family members were detoxified, and the number of people needing treatment gradually decreased.
Ye Cangtian also became increasingly fatigued due to the continuous treatment, his clothes already soaked with sweat.
Although the Zhou Tian circulation method had the effect of expelling toxins, treating others still consumed a considerable amount of his energy.
"Mr. Ye, perhaps you should rest for the night!"
"The toxins in our bodies can still be suppressed. Staying for one night will not be a problem."
Dugulianyu said to the fatigued Ye Cangtian, his words filled with concern.
"I am fine. There are only a few people left. I can still persist."
Ye Cangtian shook his head, speaking with weariness.
If they could disregard their lives and ask him to rest, how could he falter at such a critical moment?
Moreover, these poisons, while seemingly not strong, could cause irreversible damage to the body after spreading for a night. Who knew what might happen!
Seeing Ye Cangtian's resolute attitude, Dugulianyu had no further words.
Duguling, on the other hand, saw Ye Cangtian covered in sweat and quickly took out a handkerchief, stepping forward to carefully wipe it for him.
In the blink of an eye, with only a few people left to be detoxified, Ye Cangtian's spiritual energy was finally depleted, forcing him to rest and recover.
Dugulianyu approached Duguling and said, "Brother, Mr. Ye is too exhausted. Jie'er and I will return first. There are some servants in the courtyard who know a little medicine; they can help us get through the night."
"Second Brother, this is no joke! What if there's irreversible damage left? What will we do then?"
"Even if you don't care about yourself, you should at least think about Jie'er!"
"He is still so young and has excellent talent. If anything were to happen to him, his future would be ruined."
Upon hearing this, Duguling became anxious and quickly said.
He had personally experienced Ye Cangtian's detoxification methods.
Furthermore, the two of them still had other injuries, injuries sustained while protecting them. If he couldn't personally witness their detoxification, how could he feel at ease?
"Brother, don't worry. I wouldn't joke about something like this."
"At worst, we can have Mr. Ye re-examine us tomorrow."
Dugulianyu quickly replied.
Seeing Dugulianyu's insistence, Duguling did not know what else to say and fell silent.
"There's no need for that. I have recovered quite a bit."
Just then, Ye Cangtian slowly opened his eyes.
Although he hadn't fully recovered to his peak state, he had regained a considerable amount of spiritual energy, enough to detoxify the remaining people.
Most importantly, he had overheard their conversation.
If it were just a sentence or two, he wouldn't have paid much attention, but ever since he started detoxifying, Dugulianyu had repeatedly refused, which inevitably sparked a hint of doubt in his mind.
However, Dugulianyu was, after all, the second-in-command of the Dugus family, and he had a good brotherly relationship with Duguling. This slight suspicion could not be voiced carelessly.
Otherwise, he would definitely face opposition from everyone in the Dugus family.
"Mr. Ye, you haven't rested for long. Continuously expending and exhausting your spiritual energy like this is not good for your body..."
Upon hearing Ye Cangtian's voice, Dugulianyu's expression changed, and he quickly said.
"It's alright."
"Senior Lianyu sacrifices himself for others. I, your junior, will do everything in my power, even at the cost of my life, to ensure your safety!"
Ye Cangtian waved his hand, stood up, and slowly walked towards Dugulianyu, extending his hand.
Seeing Ye Cangtian's action, Dugulianyu's expression instantly changed, and he subconsciously raised his hand.
"Bang, bang..."
As Ye Cangtian's fingers landed on Dugulianyu's wrist, a strong and powerful pulse entered his mind, and in an instant, Ye Cangtian confirmed everything.
Dugulianyu was indeed not poisoned!
Not only was he not poisoned, but he was also not injured!
He instinctively looked at Dugulianyu, only to be met with Dugulianyu's sharp gaze.
Clearly, it was a warning, with an unspoken message.
