Chapter 991: Chapter 990 Critical Intelligence

At the moment, Long Ying informed Lin Dong of the intelligence he gathered:

"Dragon Lord, we are unable to determine who exactly the World’s Poison King is or what he looks like."

"However, we have found quite a bit of information on his disciples, as well as the medical poisons he developed!"

"The reason we returned from outside was to inform the Dragon Lord about the World’s Poison King’s senior disciple coming to Demon City to kill you."

Lin Dong asked, "What exactly happened? Who is the World’s Poison King’s senior disciple?"

Long Ying pondered for a moment, organizing his words before continuing:

"Dragon Lord, that senior disciple of the World’s Poison King is known as ’Taotie’. This person has cultivated an evil cultivation method that allows him to grow by devouring others’ souls."

"Currently, we estimate his strength to be that of a Third Stage Grandmaster!"

"However, there is a drawback to cultivating this method—he has an unstable foundation. So even though he possesses the strength of a Third Stage Grandmaster, he is no match for those with a solid foundation at the same level."

"Yet, thanks to the various mysterious poisons bestowed upon him by the Poison King, his strength cannot be judged by normal standards."

"He has killed Fourth Stage Grandmasters and even Fifth Stage Grandmasters..."

"I’ve also gathered some intelligence that not long ago, using a mysterious poison newly developed by his master, the World’s Poison King, he actually managed to kill a vampire count from the West who had survived for four hundred years..."

After all, it was investigated intelligence, which, although mostly accurate, did have some discrepancies.

For example, the information gathered here was that the World’s Poison King’s senior disciple ’Taotie’ killed the Vampire Count Hitler.

But the actual situation was not so; instead, he had gained control over him.

And regarding the mysterious poison newly developed by the World’s Poison King, the intelligence gathered was limited.

It was only known that once Earth Realm martial artists were poisoned, they would be rendered incapable of fighting.

The fact that it could be used to control others wasn’t discovered.

But knowing this much was already quite impressive.

Such intelligence capability was rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns among the big families of Dragon Country.

Even the Four Major Martial Arts Families in Demon City couldn’t achieve this level of detail.

After listening, Lin Dong’s expression grew grave, "I have previously killed a registered disciple of the World’s Poison King, who brought a poison called ’Soul Extinguish’."

"This Soul Extinguish, even Earth Realm martial artists poisoned by it are unable to exert their Inner Qi. One of the poisons that the Dragon King War God was afflicted with, included this ’Soul Extinguish’!"

Hearing this, Ye Xiong spoke up:

"Could it be that this time, the poison brought by the World’s Poison King’s senior disciple ’Taotie’ is this Soul Extinguish?"

Lin Dong shook his head, dismissing this speculation:

"I don’t think so; it should be an existence even more terrifying than Soul Extinguish. The World’s Poison King’s poisons have been continuously improved, and this time the one he brought with the intent to kill me is certainly more powerful than Soul Extinguish!"

Long Ying nodded, agreeing with Lin Dong’s statement.

"Dragon Lord, there is one more thing," Long Ying hurriedly continued, reporting more intelligence he uncovered, "That is the reason why the World’s Poison King’s senior disciple ’Taotie’ came to Demon City to kill you!"

"Oh? What’s the reason? Could it not be to avenge his fellow disciple?"

Lin Dong subconsciously thought it was because he had previously killed a registered disciple of the World’s Poison King, which led the senior disciple to seek him out for revenge.

But as soon as he spoke, Long Ying immediately shook his head and said:

"Dragon Lord, the person you killed before was just a registered disciple of the World’s Poison King. His death is inconsequential. The World’s Poison King doesn’t care, nor does his senior disciple share a deep bond with him."

"The reason he came to Dragon Country Demon City to kill you this time is related to another person."

"Who?" Lin Dong’s mind suddenly thought of someone, someone he felt was not simple.

"Yan Family’s Yan Yu!" Long Ying said.

Sure enough, it was the person Lin Dong had guessed.

"Surely it’s him. Does this Yan Yu have a connection with the World’s Poison King?" Lin Dong asked gravely.

"Yes. Not only is there a connection, but it is also quite intimate. That Yan Yu has concealed himself very deeply; he is actually the World’s Poison King’s third-ranked disciple!"

"He has always been assisting the World’s Poison King, in charge of affairs in Dragon Country, including collecting various Ancient Prescriptions and Ancient Pill Formulae for the World’s Poison King..."

"And helping him secretly sell some poisons."

"The reason the World’s Poison King’s senior disciple took the risk to come to Dragon Country to kill you is also at his invitation."

"If it wasn’t for the purpose of killing you, his identity might not have been revealed. We couldn’t have uncovered his identity..."

After listening to Long Ying’s words, even Lin Dong felt somewhat shocked internally.

He had previously felt that this Yan Yu was hiding something deep, but he didn’t expect it to be this deep.

He had thought that Yan Yu was merely concealing part of his strength.

He was not as weak as he appeared on the surface, and his strength was at least that of a Half-Step Earth Realm martial artist. In his view, he was even stronger than Zhao Donglai, who was ranked third on the Dragon Rankings!

Who would have thought that in doing so, Lin Dong still underestimated him.

It turned out he was not merely hiding his strength but also his identity.

And that identity was concealed deeper than his strength.

Lin Dong now understood why Yan Yu had sought the ancient medicinal prescription, willing to harm Wang Shouyi for it.

He also realized why he desperately wanted the Yan Family’s Eternal Youth Pill.

This was all directed by the World’s Poison King.

It was his task in Dragon Country!

Of course, apart from being surprised by Yan Yu’s identity, what arose more in Lin Dong’s heart was the killing intent towards him.

"This person must not be left alive. He must be killed!"

Leaving aside the degree of danger this person posed, just considering the things he had done was enough for Lin Dong to want to kill him a thousand times over!

Over the years, it was unknown just how many Ancient Prescriptions and Ancient Pill Formulae he had provided to the World’s Poison King.

He had betrayed who knows how many priceless treasures of Dragon Country!

That alone was enough to justify his death a thousand times over!
