Chapter 941: The Flawless Man

"Welcome, two masters of the Unity Realm."

Upon seeing the two, Night Owl slightly raised the corner of her mouth and stood up to welcome them.

While they were still on their way, Night Owl had already familiarized herself with their information.

Of course.

What she didn't know was that Yi Feng had no idea what his own realm was and had randomly claimed to be at the Unity Realm.

As for Fu Nanshan, seeing Yi Feng claim to be at the Unity Realm, he also reported the same to avoid revealing his true identity.

"However, as you two heroes step onto this island today, I, Night Owl, must make something clear to you."

Night Owl got straight to the point.

"Once you set foot on this island, it won't be easy to leave."

"Chances are, you'll end up sacrificing your lives here."

"Both of you are masters of the Unity Realm, rare talents of Yunxing. Cultivation is not easy, so I feel it's necessary to remind you to think carefully."

"It's not too late to back out now, and our Tian Du Island won't hold it against you. We'll send you back exactly as you came."

"So today, here, you'll need to make a decision again."

After speaking, Night Owl's deep gaze fell on the two.

Fu Nantian had no interest in testing poisons; his focus was entirely on Yi Feng beside him.

Therefore, before Yi Feng responded, he appeared hesitant, waiting for Yi Feng's decision.

"Island Master Night."

Yi Feng stepped forward, cupping his hands respectfully.

"I am well aware that the research conducted by the poison masters of Tian Du Island is all to prepare for a possible demon invasion in the future."

"This is a matter of great importance for humanity. With the lack of test subjects, we cultivators of Yunxing cannot shirk our responsibility."

"From the moment I set foot on this island, I never intended to return."

"In one sentence!"

"Please, Island Master Night Owl, do your utmost to poison me to death."

Yi Feng stood tall and spoke with a fearless determination.

Yi Feng's words immediately sparked discussions among everyone in the hall.

"What a sense of duty."

"He is a true hero of our race."

Many poison masters voiced such praises.

They were greatly inspired, feeling that their hard work on the island was not in vain.

"What a fine young man, with such high ideological awareness."

Behind him, Fu Nantian also silently praised.

Seeing Yi Feng's stance, he immediately declared, "Indeed, what this young brother said is exactly what I wanted to say. For the greater good of humanity, we cannot shirk our responsibility."

The two's declarations excited the old man who had brought them.

Indeed.

His judgment had not been wrong.

Neither of them had retreated; they were true heroes.

"Island Master Night Owl, what do you think?" the old man whispered to Night Owl.

Night Owl's sharp eyes had been observing the two all along, not missing any subtle movements between them.

"Prepare the poison test for the one surnamed Fu. As for Yi Feng..."

"Have him come to see me privately."

After speaking, Night Owl waved her hand, preparing to leave.

The old man was somewhat puzzled by Night Owl's decision.

"Ah, Island Master Night Owl, why is that?"

He asked in confusion.

"What kind of people cultivators are, you and I both know well. Are there really those willing to sacrifice their lives for the greater good?"

"Perhaps, among the vast numbers, there are."

"Like Fu Nantian, who might truly be one."

"But that other one, surnamed Yi, I'm not so sure."

Night Owl sneered.

"Island Master Night Owl, aren't you being too cautious? This young master Yi Feng was the first to sign up. His fearless attitude for the greater good of humanity couldn't be faked. Although my skills in poison may not match yours, my judgment of people isn't necessarily inferior."

Seeing Night Owl's suspicion of Yi Feng, the old man who had registered them quickly voiced his opinion.

After all.

Yi Feng held a significant place in his heart.

He deeply admired Yi Feng's spirit of fearless sacrifice for the greater good.

So he couldn't agree with Night Owl's suspicion of Yi Feng.

"Manager Zhang, I understand your feelings."

Night Owl said leisurely, "But it's precisely because he's too flawless that I suspect him."

"This person shows not a hint of fear or hesitation in the face of death, so perfect that one can't find a single fault. This is just too inconsistent with human nature."

"But that's just his character!" the old man argued for Yi Feng, "He is willing to die for the greater good of humanity, so naturally, he wouldn't hesitate."

Night Owl smiled.

"Then let me ask you, if demons invaded in the future, would you be willing to die for humanity?"

Night Owl looked at the old man and asked in return.

"I..."

The old man's face turned red, struggling with his thoughts for a long time before gritting his teeth and saying, "If my death could contribute to humanity's victory, I would be willing to die."

"Exactly, you would be willing."

Night Owl said leisurely, "Your attitude is firm, but at least you hesitated, at least you went through a mental struggle."

"I..."

The old man had no retort.

"So, that's why I suspect him," Night Owl explained, "Even if a normal person is willing to face death fearlessly, as long as they're human, they would feel some attachment before death, they would go through some mental struggle."

"But this person did not."

"At least, I, Night Owl, do not believe that there are people in this world who would sacrifice their lives so readily."

"You must understand, with the demon realm eyeing the last remnants of human territory, and even spies among humans disguised as demons."

"Everything concerning the grand plan for humanity must be handled with utmost care, no negligence is allowed, do you understand?"

Night Owl's sharp gaze fell on the old man as she solemnly warned.

"I understand."

The old man lowered his head, agreeing with Night Owl's words.

"So, have him come to see me later."

"I'll take a closer look at him, to confirm that he has no ulterior motives for coming here," Night Owl instructed.

After speaking, she gently stroked the lizard in her hand, a meaningful smile playing on her lips as she glanced at Yi Feng and the others before slowly leaving.

After Night Owl left, the old man approached Yi Feng and Fu Nantian.

Upon learning that Night Owl wanted to meet Yi Feng privately, Fu Nantian's expression turned serious.

He pulled Yi Feng aside.

"Kid, remember what I said."

"When you meet that poisonous woman later, keep your distance. She's someone even saints are wary of."

"If you upset her, she won't care if you're a test subject or if you're here for the greater good. She'll kill you without a second thought, understand?"

Fu Nantian earnestly advised.

He had heard of Night Owl's prowess with poisons.

He didn't want to see Yi Feng as a corpse the next time they met.

By then, even he would be powerless to help.

To prevent any mishap with his future prized disciple, he had to reiterate his warnings.

But Yi Feng was unfazed.

Death?

That was exactly what he wanted.

So not only was he not nervous, but he also felt a slight anticipation at the thought of meeting this infamous poisonous woman.

Soon, led by the old man, Yi Feng entered Night Owl's private room.

"Sit!"

In the room.

Night Owl had already brewed some fragrant tea and was seated by the tea table. Seeing Yi Feng enter, she gestured for him to sit.

Yi Feng didn't stand on ceremony and sat down directly.

From the moment Yi Feng entered the room, every move he made, every subtle expression on his face, was captured by Night Owl's watchful eyes.
