The Last Primal

Seeing Madam Dara's body suddenly twitch ever so slightly, did not escape the elderly man's keen senses. The old uncle was amazed when he saw that.

The Corpse Poison Sect's most lethal poisons could not be cured by anybody outside the sect! This was a known fact throughout the ages! This was what made that vile evil sect so horrific, so terrifying!

Furthermore, by the looks of it, the Violet Haze Flower Poison seemed to be disappearing bit by bit from within the buxom woman's body!

The purple color on Madam Dara's lips was fading and there were merely a few drops of blood left on it. Her state was getting better by the second. At the same time, her pale body, which looked to be devoid of life, was gradually returning its healthier colors.

Inside her body, outside of everyone's gaze, a powerful force of golden ethereal substance was coursing and revitalizing Madam Dara's deteriorated vessel.

Whilst others, as well as the Elderly man standing behind Tai Liu was puzzled by the shocking turn of events, Aiden merely smiled as he looked at his servant with a gentle gaze. Though he should be worried, there was nothing but calmness in his expression. He did not look worried at all. However this should not come as that great of a surprise.

After all, he knew exactly what was going on.

The reason why the Violet Haze Flower Poison was being purged from Madam Dara's body should be because the unique and heaven defying ability of his system. Sharing his own resources with his system assigned minions was something that went against everything in the world!

Still, without his special unique trait that he had tried basically on a whim, the [Primal Restoration] and his heaven defying miraculous healing ability. Otherwise how could Madam Dara survive against such an extremely toxic and ruthlessly lethal poison made from the Violet Haze Flower?

Although his transfused essence are powerful could it purge the poison from Madam Dara's body? It required a relatively longer time, how else could she manage to survive in between that period?

Seeing the color slowly but surely returning to her made Aiden to finally heave a long breath and calm himself down somewhat.

Turning around, he glared at the corpse on the ground.

The badly burnt carcass was clear evidence what Lady Pyre have done.

"[Reptilian] Hmm… So you want an explanation? Sure, I will give YOU an explanation."

Surveying his surroundings, Aiden said indifferently. "[Reptilian] My people… no my family will not harm anyone for no reason. If that… 'disciple' of yours is dead it must be because he did something that he… or she…" He said, releasing a light chuckle at his own little tease. "…he or she must have crossed our bottom line."

"[Reptilian] W-what?!"

"[Reptilian] How dare you?!"

An Azure Myst Sect disciple with a long face hollered madly. "[Reptilian] Junior Brother was trying to head forward and check out of goodwill. However, your bi- *khm* your friend killed him without any reason at all! We saw it for ourselves and you're still trying to deny it?!"

Aiden smiled and glared at that guy sharply with a cold gaze, replying with a deep intent. "[Reptilian] It was true that he came forward to check things out. However, we don't know whether it was out of goodwill."

A hint of panic flashed through that person's eyes.

"[Reptilian] What do you mean by that!"

"[Reptilian] Slander!"

Aiden turned towards Tai Liu and asked with a calm but rather chilly smile.

"[Reptilian] Young Master, you mentioned that the Violet Haze Flower Poison is extremely toxic and contagious, right?"

"[Reptilian] That's right." Tai Liu nodded and her eyes flashed, as if she had thought of something.

"[Reptilian] Even you would be afraid of going forward casually, am I right?" Aiden continued asking with his previous smile, leading the conversation further.

"[Reptilian] Yes." Tai Liu admitted with a nod.

Indeed, she did not dare to get close after realizing that Madam Dara was inflicted with the Violet Haze Flower Poison. It was not because she was cold blooded, it was merely logic.

Suddenly, Tai Liu's heart jolted and she realized what was wrong.

She could help but murmur softly with a pondering tone. "[Reptilian] Why did Junior Brother be the first to head up and check something that even I wouldn't dare to?"

The elderly man nodded in silence. A knowing smile was plastered on his face. '[Reptilian] What a quick witted, cunning young man! His mind is just as sharp as his blade!'

Not knowing what her Elder was thinking, Tai Liu continued voicing out his growing concerns.

Most importantly, there's no antidote available for the Violet Haze Flower Poison. There's no reason for our Junior Brother to head forward at all. It would have been pure stupidity…"

Many Azure Myst Sect disciples came to their senses when they heard that.

It was right! She was right!

They wouldn't have gone forward if it was them in that position.

Furthermore, what was the point of risking their lives to head forward and check when they wouldn't be able to do anything about the poison either?

Tai Liu's gaze turned cold as she glared at the corpse on the floor without saying anything more.

Aiden's gaze flashed like lightning towards the long-faced cultivator and said slowly.

"[Reptilian] I'm guessing that the reason why the person went forward to check wasn't because Madam Dara was poisoned. It was because she didn't die from the poison!"

The long-faced cultivator's expression changed slightly as his eyes flickered; he did not dare to meet with Aiden's gaze.

Squinting his eyes, Aiden said word by word. "[Reptilian] How utterly horrid a person must be to collude with the enemy and betray their own brethren? How could such a miserable, disgusting worm be even placed at a such high pedestal and be defended by you all?"

Yet he didn't stop there and continued whilst his calm smile gradually transformed into a ruthless sneer. "[Reptilian] That person's killing intent appeared after finding out that Madam Dara wasn't dead and that was why he was killed by Lady Pyre!

"[Reptilian] Or could it be that I am wrong? What do you all say?" Aiden asked coldly.

The long-faced disciple forced a laugh. "[Reptilian] H-How would I know?"

Walking slowly towards the long-faced young [Draconic Skink] reptilian, Aiden asked with a sinisterly dark gaze. "[Reptilian] What are you afraid of?"

"[Reptilian] N-no! W-what are you saying… I… I'm not…"

"[Reptilian] In this short period of time, your heart has been racing and your breathing turned hurried. You're clearly panicking. Also… I sensed your killing intent towards me a moment ago!"

By the time he was finished speaking, Aiden had already arrived in front of the long-faced cultivator. The person's face was frightfully pale as he stumbled backwards instinctively. Even the other disciple could tell that he was looking guilty.

The long-faced disciple had not expected that Aiden would possess such a keen perception and had extremely keen senses towards something such as killing intent that was immaterial.

It was logical that the other disciples would feel hostile towards Aiden. However it was just that.

However, the long-faced disciple felt a killing intent!

The old man could only sigh with a disappointed look on his face and say. "[Reptilian] Young Man, Qr Yochti you better come clean and you might have a chance to live. Otherwise…"

The long-faced disicple named Qr Yochti was thoroughly panicked. He realized that his fellow sect mates that were standing beside him a moment ago had backed off, looking at him warily.

Gulping, Qr Yochti looked towards Aiden instinctively.

Aiden's gaze was sharp as a knife, emitting a piercing glint with occasional flashes of golden lightning. It was unusually sharp and instantly penetrated the last line of defense in Qr Yochti's heart.

This was the invisible power of his gaze, another form of his primordial aura.

In the world, some battle hardened killers would often let out savage gazes such that ordinary people would feel fear upon meeting with their eyes.

The eyes were interlinked with one's guts. Therefore, in a fight between two people, one might lose his courage if he was intimidated by the latter's gaze, revealing openings.

In the mortal realms, among two Martial Fighters, there was a saying that one had to hone their eyes before training their guts and that technique was known as the gaze technique.

Not wishing to waste any more time on such a wastrel, Aiden took a step forward. As he did so, his eyes were sparkling like lightning as he commanded with a single shout.

"[Reptilian] Speak." He infused a tiny bit of his [Draconic Heritage] into his shout, making his exclamation feel like a genuine thunderbolt striking from the skies far above.

His word were like a heavenly order cast down to this pugilistic, mortal world.

Qr Yochti was already extremely rattled by Aiden's gaze. Now that he was shouted at, he almost broke down as he knelt on the ground with a thud and a frightfully pale face.

"[Reptilian] I beg you, spare me! I was wrong! I know I was wrong!"
