Mu Bai arrived early in the morning on the second day. He was casually taking the high-speed rail. When he heard Zhao Manyan was poisoned, he imdiately shook off his worn-out look and beca intent.
“I happened to have co up with a new way to get rid of poison!” Mu Bai’s eyes were smiling like a cunning fox who had finally found its prey.
“Piss off, don’t you dare try and put sothing strange into my body again!” Zhao Manyan cursed after he recalled how Mu Bai had nded his broken bones in the past. However, he sounded a little feeble due to the poison in his body.
Mo Fan’s eyes widened when he heard the exchange between the two. “I have been wondering why the two of you either have no girlfriend or keep changing your girlfriend. I suppose you two already have intimate contacts with one another?”
“Here is a silkworm I discovered behind Fanxue Mountain. The species specifically nurtures itself with poison. If you want to recover as soon as possible, you should swallow the silkworm. It will absorb the poisonous substances in your body,” Mu Bai said sternly.
It was a great discovery that Mu Bai had made while he was cultivating in seclusion recently. He had asked Yu Shishi to raise a few of the species he had found. Antidotes were always in short supply, and even the best Healer would struggle to heal a few kinds of poison. By bringing a few of the Antidote Silkworms with him, he would be able to guarantee his own safety!
Mu Bai would definitely open a store if he could figure out a way to mass breed the Antidote Silkworms. He would be able to earn so funds to buy himself so Magic Equipnt!
Zhao Manyan was struggling to make up his mind. He eventually ate the silkworm when he rembered his goal was to look for the Totem Beasts and achieve the Super Level.
The Antidote Silkworm was very effective. Zhao Manyan regained his vigor as the rest of the group had their al. He was back to normal only an hour later!
“Ti to go, those sons of b**ches, we’ll force our way onto Dawn Island and get our revenge!” Zhao Manyan exclaid.
“By the way, Old Zhao, have you taken a dump?” Mu Bai asked him.
“What dump?” Zhao Manyan was puzzled.
“You have to get rid of the silkworm first, or do you want it to climb out of your throat after crawling through your intestines? I don’t really mind either way,” Mu Bai inford him.
“Ugh, screw you!” Zhao Manyan cursed in dismay.
——
Zhao Manyan had learned two important things when he tried to scout the island. First, there were a huge number of highly aggressive creatures hiding around Dawn Island. These creatures would attack anything that tried to reach Dawn Island from the air. Defensive spells were not enough to hold the creatures off for a long ti. Second, the creatures were poisonous, and the poison would drain away its victim’s focus and energy. The victims would lose their ability to fight and escape after an hour or two. Therefore, they had to be extrely careful not to get injured.
“Our problem is that we can’t reach the island,” Mo Fan said.
Mo Fan’s fighting ability would be reduced greatly if he was not on land. He needed sowhere to stand, be it flying or traveling on a boat.
“What if we ask Mu Bai to freeze the water, the sa thing we did when we were on the national team?” Jiang Shaoxu suggested.
Zhao Manyan imdiately shook his head, “Those boorangs were destroyers. They would instantly smash the ice to pieces!”
“My Ice Magic’s freezing is pretty normal too. Mu Ningxue can easily freeze a huge area with her Innate Ice Domain, but it’s a strenuous task for , and would cost a huge amount of energy, too,” Mu Bai agreed, shaking his head.
Mu Ningxue was able to freeze the surface of an ocean, but that did not an he could do it too. It was not about his cultivation, but his capabilities!
“I hated fighting on water the most,” Mo Fan shrugged, considering the ocean his greatest nesis.
“Why don’t you ask your teacher if she has any ideas?” Jiang Shaoxu proposed.
“Yeah, she has been here for quite so ti. She should know what the creatures in the water are and how to deal with them,” Zhao Manyan said.
“What teacher?” Mu Bai had to ask.

The group found Tangyue and the others, who were watching the sea from the cliff.
This ti, it was not just Li Dong and Zhu Min with her; another nine mbers of the Enforcent Union were standing behind her too. They seed to be taking orders from Tangyue. The two Enforcers who were patrolling the cliff while smoking last night were among them. They seed to be worn out, whether it was because they had been working overnight, or they had gone to enjoy themselves sowhere in town.
“These Enforcers seriously lack so discipline,” Lingling murmured after observing Tangyue’s n from a distance.
“Mm, I bet they are a bunch of seniors who aren’t really controlled by their superiors,” Mo Fan said.
Mo Fan had often crossed paths with the Enforcent Union. Most Enforcers had a stern aura, but judging from the attitudes of the two who were patrolling the cliff last night and the behaviors of the others today, it was very likely that Tangyue was leading a bunch of useless Enforcers.
The Nanxi Mountain Enforcent Union had been around for a long ti, and had been reluctant to obey the Lingyin Enforcent Union’s orders for many years. Tangyue was like an ambitious general assigned to a camp of unambitious soldiers. It explained why the case was not yet resolved. How was it possible to resolve such a tricky situation without an elite squad?
“Vice Chief, please don’t treat our lives as a joke. How can we even make it to Dawn Island with our numbers? Even if we did, how are we going to make it back alive? The lives of a hundred townsfolk that were poisoned are precious, but ours aren’t?” a middle-aged man who had been patrolling the cliff last night said. He was even holding a cigarette between his fingers, as if he was going to light it at any second.
“Vice Chief, we want to save their lives too, but if you are only planning to bring the few of us along, there’s no way we can make it alive according to the information we’ve gathered. If we all die, Wanggui Town is seriously in deep trouble,” another Enforcer added.
Tangyue’s chest was rising with her angry breathing. These Enforcers of Nanxi Mountain Enforcent Union were beyond unreliable!
It had already been a month, but they had failed to find any useful clues, nor had they co up with a plan to resolve the situation. They did not even investigate the island. She could not help but wonder why the Magic Association and the country even bothered feeding these people!
Every job given to the Enforcent Union was supposed to be dangerous for normal Mages. Otherwise, why would they call themselves Enforcers?
“You’re dismissed!” Tangyue knew there was no point venting her anger on these people. They had no intention of risking their lives.
The people were relieved as soon as they heard the word. They all quickly went on their way, leaving Tangyue behind alone.
