《The Demon's Gate》Chapter 69: People from the Yang clan.

Chapter 69: People from the Yang clan. Early the next morning, Yao Jun and Guo Luo ate a light breakfast before they stomped out the fire and left the gate. There was no need to mention what they had talked about last night, as long as the both of them knew, that was enough. Everything else would happen naturally with time, for now, they had other things to focus on. After they left the Demon God's Gate, they once more brought out Sirius and had him scout the way for them. This time, whenever Sirius encountered a location that confused him, Guo Luo would ask Yao Jun what Sirius had noticed, then she would make her decision. Thanks to this, they managed to travel safely for several hours, avoiding both normal Demonic beasts and other locations that seemed to hold dangers. The reason they decided to avoid fighting other Demonic beasts, despite Guo Luo originally wanting them to fight lots of Demonic beasts to strengthen Yao Jun. Was because Sirius had warned them that if they started a fight in the forest, the smell of blood and the sounds of battle would quickly attract other Demonic beasts. If they were beset by large groups of Demonic beasts in a narrow forest like this, they would have no choice but to flee, fleeing into the Demon God's Gate if things went completely wrong. This was obviously not a desirable outcome, as there was no telling what could happen if they were surrounded while they were inside the Demon God's Gate. After they had traveled for a few hours and made their way into the deeper parts of Zhenya valley, Sirius stopped once more, sniffing the air. But this time, he wasn't looking around with confusion, but wariness. He turned his head and let out a low growl at Yao Jun, quickly letting him know what he had noticed. “What did he find?” Guo Luo knew that this meant that Sirius had found something that was completely out of the ordinary, but since she could not understand his words, she could only ask Yao Jun. “Poison. Someone ahead of us has covered a small clearing in the distance with poison, affecting a group of humans that were resting there.” Yao Jun looked ahead, his eyes lighting up with a gray light as he inspected the scene. Others might not be able to see the situation, but once he injected his eyes with Qi, his eyesight would improve drastically, even allowing him to see the insides of a person. The group that was poisoned consisted of three people. Two men and one woman. The three people all wore the same red robes, decorated with the image of a fiery bird, but they had made some slight alterations to their clothing, giving them a more personal touch. Yao Jun knew who these robes belonged to, only people from the Yang clan could use these robes. The person in the group that seemed to be the oldest, looking like he was in his mid-twenties, was a tall man, standing at nearly two meters in height. His body was burly and well built. His robe did not have sleeves, it was also opened at the front, showing off his thick arms and sturdy chest. He had short and spiky hair that was a light golden in color, seemingly shining under the sun. his entire body was heavily scarred, especially his arms. The man had a face that could be called rugged, with translucent green eyes and features that seemed like they had been carved out with a knife. What surprised Yao Jun was that while he felt that this person was at the late stages of the 1st Mortal Earth, all his Qi was spread throughout his entire body. This could only mean that this person had reached this level of strength through training his body, not through training his inborn power. The second male had a completely different build and was slightly younger, seeming no older than twenty. His body was slender and delicate, bordering on feminine. He had brown hair that went all the way down to his waist, black eyes and a delicate face. His skin was very pale, making him look rather sickly. It was also clear that this man was not human, as his ears were longer and ended in sharp points. His eyes did not have pupils, but were completely black. There were also a few brown scales growing on his neck, but they were mostly hidden by his robes. He was clearly someone from the Demon Race. The red robe he wore was longer than the ones belonging to the other people, covering his hands and feet completely. The fiery birds on his robes rested on blue lotuses, but it was clear that these blue lotuses were added to his robes after they were made. The last person was the woman. The woman had a tall build, standing at the same height as Yao Jun, just a head below two meters, she seemed to be a little older than Yao Jun. But while she was tall, her body was surprisingly well proportioned. Her breasts seemed like they would fit perfectly in your hands, he waist curved inwards while her hips curved outwards. She had plump thighs and delicate skin that seemed to tempt everyone who looked at it. Coupled with her long, golden hair, limpid blue eyes and cherry red lips, she could only be described as a beauty. Her red robe was altered in a way that showed off her shoulders and collar bone, the lower area of the robe had two cuts at the side of her legs, allowing her to move with greater ease. If Yao Jun had to describe this robe, he would say that it looked more like a dress than a robe. “Is this poison dangerous?” Guo Luo furrowed her brows as she spoke. Poison was always tricky to deal with, especially when you were far away from civilization. This was why she had bought several different herbs that could act as antidotes. “Not to us, we have an herb that counteracts it, but the people in the clearing don't seem to have it.” Yao Jun looked at the effects that the poison had on the group of people, as well as examine the source of the poison, before he shook his head as he spoke. This type of poison was not deadly, at most it would paralyze a person's body. It was a type of poison found at some places in Zhenya valley, so they had already prepared an antidote before they entered Zhenya valley. “Is it possible for us to move closer without being discovered?” Guo Luo's mind moved at full speed as she considered their options. In the end, she decided that it was better to get a closer look and learn more before she made a premature decision. “It should be possible. The people that are poisoned are currently unable to use their power, so they won't notice us if we are careful. But if the person who planted the poison has a scouting type power, we might be seen.” Yao Jun quickly answered. The group of people were already completely paralyzed, they couldn't even move their Qi. The person that had planted the poison was hiding in a tree a short distance away from the group of people, seemingly content with waiting a bit longer. “How strong is the strongest person in that group of people?” If it turned out that the strongest person of that group was much stronger than them, heading over there to get a closer look would be suicidal, as the person who poisoned them would probably be at around the same level, most likely a bit weaker. “Early stage of the 2nd Mortal Earth.” The girl was the one among the group that had the highest cultivation level. The man who had poisoned them was only at the middle stage of the 1st Mortal Earth, so Yao Jun was not worried about anything going wrong. “Then it should be safe for us to move closer. They wouldn't rely on poison if they felt confident that they could beat them.” Guo Luo quickly made up her mind. After moving closer, it would be easier to discern the situation. If the people who were poisoned were worth saving, she would not mind saving them. But if they turned out to be evil, she would not mind leaving them. Yao Jun and Guo Luo started slowly and quietly making their way closer. When Yao Jun noticed that the man in the tree started moving closer to the group, he focused his eyes on the man and used his mental energy to show Guo Luo what he was seeing and hearing. “What a surprise to see you here Yuhuan, the news I got was that you had entered Soaring Cloud City at the behest of Yantian. If I had known that you would show your face here, I would have prepared a much better poison than just this Bone Dead Ginger.” The man who had been hiding in the tree stepped into the clearing and had a beaming smile as he spoke to the girl. The man had a rather handsome face, with delicate features and a slim build. But his skin had a slight green tint to it, making him look rather poisonous. His sclera had a slight purple tint that seemed to move around like smoke. He was clad in a dark brown robe, the same one that Yao Jun had bought before they entered Zhenya valley.
