Chapter 952: I Am A Saint

Seeing Fu Nantian so agitated, the group quickly turned back.

They comforted him softly, "Hero Fu, there's no need to be upset. Being at the Rong Dao realm is nothing to be ashamed of. In terms of mental state, even those at the Zheng Dao realm can't compare to you."

"Also, as we mentioned earlier, the Heavenly Poison Island won't hold your deception against you. On the contrary, we are very grateful to you."

"By the way, you probably don't know what happened afterward," the lead poison master quickly added, remembering something. "You were poisoned and fell unconscious in the poison mist space, and it was Hero Yi who saved you."

"During this poison trial, Hero Yi was unharmed, while you, Hero Fu, were critically poisoned. So we concluded that the spatial poison mist we created this time is only effective against those at the Rong Dao realm and has minimal effect on those at the He Dao realm."

He added, "And even for those at the Rong Dao realm, it's not necessarily fatal."

His words clearly referred to Fu Nantian.

"Therefore, this poison trial is, overall, a failure for the Heavenly Poison Island. If we can't develop a spatial poison mist that is effective against the He Dao realm, it won't be of much use in the upcoming war against demons."

"So we must hurry and continue our research, racing against time."

"Oh, by the way, Hero Fu, you owe your survival to Hero Yi. We suspect that Hero Yi might also be a rare herbal master."

"Alright, Hero Fu, rest well. We'll take our leave now."

The poison masters patted Fu Nantian's shoulder comfortingly and spoke with deep sincerity.

As soon as they turned around, Fu Nantian couldn't hold back his roar.

"Bullshit conclusion! You're the one at the Rong Dao realm, your whole family is at the Rong Dao realm!"

Fu Nantian was completely enraged, his face flushed with anger as he shouted, "Listen up, I am a Saint, a Saint!"

Seeing Fu Nantian like this, the poison masters thought he had been driven mad by the poison. But the next moment, they felt a surge of Saintly aura emanating from him.

The moment this aura was released, the poison masters' bodies instinctively knelt to the ground before their minds could even process what was happening.

Fu Nantian's mere release of his aura caused a small-scale celestial phenomenon. The clouds above the Heavenly Poison Island churned, and thunder roared.

Everyone on the island felt the pressure of this Saintly aura and was utterly shocked.

Ye Xiao, who was in the pavilion, immediately flew out and rushed to the scene, appearing at the doorway in the next instant.

When she saw that Fu Nantian, who had come for the poison trial, was actually a Saint, she was slightly surprised and frowned.

"See? I am a Saint, a Saint!" Fu Nantian repeated sternly, pointing at the kneeling poison masters and scolding them.

As for Ye Xiao, who had just arrived at the doorway, he completely ignored her.

"Also, your poison isn't just successful—it's damn successful. Not only can it kill those at the He Dao realm, but even those at the Zheng Dao realm would die if they entered."

As he spoke, Fu Nantian cursed under his breath.

Damn it.

These unremarkable old guys actually had some skill, almost causing him, a Saint, to fall in there and making him lose face in front of that kid Yi Feng.

"What?"

But the information Fu Nantian revealed sent the poison masters' blood pressure skyrocketing, and they trembled with excitement.

Even Ye Xiao at the doorway was shocked.

This information was truly explosive.

"Sir, is this really true?" the lead poison master asked with trembling hands, his voice tense.

"Why would I lie to you? As a Saint, do I need to deceive you?" Fu Nantian barked, his face dark.

With Fu Nantian's confirmation, the poison masters burst into tears, their blood pressure soaring to the top of their heads. They almost hugged each other in excitement.

"We succeeded, we succeeded!"

"Not only did we succeed, but we far exceeded expectations!"

"Our efforts weren't in vain!"

"Yes!"

"We can die in peace now."

The old men were ecstatic.

But then, one of them remembered something.

Wait a minute.

If that's the case, how did Yi Feng, who is at the He Dao realm, remain unharmed, while this Saint was poisoned?

One of the poison masters couldn't help but voice his confusion.

"Of course it's not right!"

Fu Nantian roared in frustration, "That kid Yi Feng being unharmed proves that he's not just at the He Dao realm—he's at least a Half-Saint!"

As soon as Fu Nantian said this, his anger flared up again. He wanted to skin Yi Feng alive.

He never expected that kid to be so cunning, hiding his true strength and even fooling his, a Saint's, eyes.

"And why was I poisoned? It's because I was previously injured, and for some reason, the injury was aggravated," Fu Nantian added with a dark face. "Under those circumstances, your damn poison managed to take advantage."

"Otherwise, do you think your poison could have affected me, a Saint, even a little?"

"Would that brat Yi Feng have had the chance to save me?"

Clearly, Fu Nantian was doing everything he could to save face.

Especially since he couldn't get over the fact that Yi Feng had saved him.

"So that's how it is, that's how it is."

"So Hero Yi is actually a Half-Saint."

"Then our research this time is a complete success!"

"Yes, we succeeded."

The poison masters cried tears of joy.

Outside the door, Ye Xiao's red lips parted slightly.

The results of this experiment had completely exceeded her expectations, and it was indeed something to be excited about. But for some reason, when she heard that Yi Feng was also a Half-Saint, her excitement seemed to grow even stronger.

"So, you're this outstanding too?" she murmured to herself.

Meanwhile, Fu Nantian, having vented his anger, now lowered his head and muttered, "Since that kid thought I was at the Rong Dao realm, it means he didn't recognize me."

Although he didn't know why Yi Feng hadn't recognized him, for Fu Nantian, this was the only thing worth being relieved about at the moment.

After waking up, he had been in a hurry to deal with the matter of his clone being destroyed and needed to leave for a while.

In that case, the next time he met Yi Feng, he would simply change his appearance.

In short, he absolutely couldn't let Yi Feng connect the poisoned, hat-wearing man in the poison mist space with his future self as a master.

He had never been to the Heavenly Poison Island.

Poison trial?

I don't know.

I'm not aware.

I have no such black history.

Of course, he would have to silence these people.

"I warn you, my strength and identity must not be revealed to that kid Yi Feng," Fu Nantian said with the authority of a Saint.

"Yes!"

They didn't dare to disobey the words of a Saint and quickly retreated respectfully.

After they left, Ye Xiao slowly walked in.

A Saint.

A Half-Saint.

The two faced each other, their gazes locking, and the air seemed to freeze.

"Your goal is Yi Feng?" Ye Xiao asked after a long while, narrowing her eyes.

"Of course, it's for that kid," Fu Nantian declared proudly. "That kid is a genius, and I want to take him as my disciple. But I was afraid his strength wasn't enough, and he might die in your poison trial, so I followed him. Who knew that damn kid was hiding his strength?"

Ye Xiao stared at him.

After a long while, her tall figure shifted slightly.

"Take care, I won't see you out."

Hearing this, Fu Nantian rolled his eyes and walked past her, then flew away from the island.

"Damn, that woman is terrifying, even though she's just a Half-Saint."

As he flew, Fu Nantian wiped the sweat from his brow. When Ye Xiao had spoken, he had clearly sensed dense toxins spreading through the air.

There was even a strong killing intent.

It forced him to reveal his true purpose.

Otherwise, he might have been able to leave unscathed, but given his still-healing injuries, he would have likely suffered greatly.

"Damn, what bad luck."

"Not only did I, a Saint, almost fall here, but I was also saved by my future disciple, and now I'm being threatened by a Half-Saint..."

"But that woman is definitely not normal."

"Hahaha, my precious disciple is indeed outstanding, even attracting the attention of such an old maid..."

"Although that woman is a bit sinister, with her protecting you, I can focus on my own matters for a while."
