Elder Qiao's reminder made this conversation come to an end.

When everyone quickly calmed down from their worries, Ye Yi had already returned to their side, but his expression was not very good.

"There's a cave about 100 meters ahead. I saw smoke coming from the kitchen and I also saw a lot of people there. However, I'm not sure if they are the villagers because they all came from different places."

"Could it be another task team?" What Chang Wu got in return for his question was Ye Yi shaking his head:

"I don't know. The air is very mixed, but that Black-backed Bird must be in the cave."

"The aura is mixed together to mean …"

"I can smell no less than thirty."

Ye Yi's answer made everyone look at each other in dismay, and finally, everyone looked at Bai Ruyue.

"How can we get into the tiger's den without getting into the tiger's den? We'll only know if we go!"

Bai Ruyue waved her hand, bringing everyone to that direction. In this short span of a hundred meters, Ye Yi had emphasized on avoiding all kinds of detours, and even Junior Qiao didn't express any dissatisfaction towards Ye Yi.

Finally, they reached the cave. When Bai Ruyue saw the few people standing in front of the bonfire set up at the entrance, she was startled. Because she actually saw a few people she knew!

Du Waner!

The Du Waner from Pill Sect Branch!

And there's also the Mo Chenhai from the Ding Tian Sect!

What was going on? Why were they here?

Facing these "acquaintances", Bai Ruyue found it hard to calm down, but she immediately recalled the secret that the Elder Wen Xin had told her. The mission itself was a request, so the location of the mission was not some illusion. Then it was only natural for others to appear.

"Who is it!" There was a scout in front who suddenly shouted towards Bai Ruyue and the others. Bai Ruyue blinked her eyes and decisively brought everyone out.

"Bai Ruyue?" When Du Waner saw Bai Ruyue, both her eyes widened in shock.

"It's me." Bai Ruyue smiled to show her friendliness.

"You Pill Sect traitor!" Du Waner's face immediately became full of hostility, while Mo Chenhai immediately whistled, and eight people immediately rushed out of the cave.

Bai Ruyue swept a glance over these people. She could not call out their names, but most of them had either fought or met during Pill Sect's Warrior Skill Meeting. Of course, there was one exception, and that was Tu Feiya.

He was still holding onto some white cloth, and when he saw Bai Ruyue's expression, he was even more shocked than the others.

"Bai Ruyue, what are you doing here?" Mo Chenhai was on his guard.

"I'm here to rescue the villagers!" Bai Ruyue ignored her enmity and asked politely, "What about you guys? Is it a similar mission? "

Just as Mo Chenhai was about to answer, Du Waner reached out her hand and tugged on Mo Chenhai's sleeve.

"What we do has nothing to do with you, a Pill Sect traitor! Bai Ruyue, be tactful and get the hell away from your men right now, or else … "

"Or what?" Bai Ruyue calmly looked at Du Waner, as if she was not threatened at all.

"The grand master has ordered to kill you, a traitor!" Someone shouted at Bai Ruyue, who straightened his body immediately: "Did you hear that?"

"I heard it, but first, I didn't do anything that let Pill Sect down, I don't understand how I became a traitor. Secondly, Pill Sect removed my name, then I would have nothing to do with Pill Sect anymore. "Third..."

Bai Ruyue said in a neither humble nor haughty manner: "I am here to save the villagers, not to mutilate each other, of course I am not here to bully you all with my words!"

After she finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave, planning to not interact with these people, but then Du Waner and the others looked at each other, and suddenly rushed forward to surround her and her teammates.

"What does that mean?" Bai Ruyue's brows slightly knitted, while anger flashed across Han Yu and Chang Wu's faces.

"Sect Master has given the order, whoever in the sect can kill you, she will take that person as her direct disciple and also reward you with three Grade 7 pill formulas!" Du Waner said with jealousy and hatred in her eyes, "You delivered this to me yourself, don't even think about leaving!"

"Ha ha!" Hearing that, Bai Ruyue could not help but laugh: "You think you guys can kill me?"

Apothecaries, their greatest skill was pill forging!

With regards to the Murdering Battle Skill, Bai Ruyue felt that there were only a handful of people who were truly proficient in it!

"Our capabilities aren't that high, but it's more than enough to deal with a mere grade-1 apothecary like you."

"I'm sorry, I'm a LV 2 fighter now!" Bai Ruyue kindly pointed out to correct the mistake, but Du Waner rolled her eyes and raised her hand to shout: "Go!"

Bai Ruyue did not move, as Hanyu was the first one to step in front of Bai Ruyue, and Chang Wu was the second to step behind him. After that, Junior Qiao raised his hand, and battle qi immediately condensed into a circular electric net that crackled loudly.

As a result, all of the enemies were caught off guard and were struck dead on the spot! They all fell to the ground screaming as their bodies twitched.

"Bai Ruyue, you even brought an accomplice!" Du Waner raised her own hands and screamed emotionally, the black, scorched wounds on her hands were emitting black smoke.

"If you can't speak, then don't. This is called a team member!" When Bai Ruyue's words fell, the Junior Qiao looked at her: "Captain, do I want to kill them?"

"No, they are not demons, and are not evil villains, just a bunch of disciples deceived by the Sect Master of The Pill Sect! Just knock them out! "

When Junior Qiao heard this, he immediately released another electric current. Although they were all fighting with combat power, but just as Bai Ruyue had expected, they were not any kind of combat experts, so she was easily stunned by Junior Qiao.

Seeing that these people were all still twitching on the ground, Bai Ruyue shook her head helplessly. On the other hand, Hanyu turned around and looked at Bai Ruyue with worry:

"Not only is Sect Master of The Pill Sect dishonoring you, you even ordered me to kill you, this is way too small!"

The grand sect master attacking a mere second rank alchemist like me just so happens to be proof of her exasperation. It's a pity that no one realized this!" Bai Ruyue said as she looked at the cave. "How about we go in and take a look?

"Great!" He just so happened to know the situation of the villagers! It's not like it's a good idea to let us cut you off for this mission! " The Junior Qiao said as he led the Elder Qiao into the cave. Bai Ruyue and the others followed behind.

The cave was quite big, it was about the size of an old house in Demon Suppressing King Palace.

However, there were a lot of people lying inside that surprised Bai Ruyue to find out that there were actually as many as seventy people lying inside!

Amongst these seventy people, there were roughly thirty-six people. They were gaunt, black, skinny, short, and wore relatively little clothing. One could tell with a single glance that they were the original villagers of this so-called "town."

As for the remaining thirty-four people, they were dressed according to their clothing. Their body characteristics were divided into three parts, so they were likely from different groups.

But at the moment, they were actually lying on the ground, and all of them looked as if they were dead asleep, which made Bai Ruyue feel that something was amiss, while Chang Wu and Han Yu quickly took a look, their expressions changing greatly.

"They were all poisoned!"
