"Perfect. I needed some people to run errands for me." Wei He rose to his feet and flicked a finger. Blasts of force shot from his sleeves, precisely flying into the nostrils of the two knights.
"You know how to find me afterward. Best not to take longer than this time tomorrow."
He did not waste any more words. This second heir of the Austen Family could conveniently make up for the shortage of capable people under his command.
He found it difficult to concoct control-type poisons effective against demons, after all. Demon species varied greatly; a poison that worked on one kind might be useless against another.
But medicines meant for humans were much more convenient.
After leaving behind a trace of poisonous mist to temper the effects of the drug, Wei He turned and left the side hall, taking Lord Huajunzi with him.
"My lord!" Behind Andis, a heavily armored knight had recovered slightly. He dropped to one knee in shame.
"This isn't your fault." Andis took a deep breath. He had not expected mutated martial artists left behind from the previous era to still possess such overwhelming strength.
"I underestimated him. Paying a price for that was only proper.
"If I had known earlier..."
Andis did not continue.
As long as they had not been killed on the spot, the Lineage would have ways to resolve the matter internally.
The toxins in their bodies were merely minor problems. The key was Wei He himself.
His moods were mercurial, he struck at will, and he treated human lives like blades of grass.
This man was extraordinarily dangerous.

After leaving the Grand World, Wei He's heart was calm.
The surroundings around him were becoming more and more like the era in which he had once lived.
