I became a martial arts saint while playing games.

Gu Yan did indeed poison the swaddling clothes of that demon bear cub.

Moreover, the poison used was not any other kind of poison, but the very same Spirit-Eroding and Tendon-Softening Powder that was originally obtained from the Black Wind Demon Cave.

This poison is colorless and odorless, making it extremely difficult to guard against. Even Shen Qinghan, who was at the late stage of the Qi Control Realm, was poisoned by it. This Black Bear Demon King, however, was only at the mid-stage of the Qi Control Realm and was preoccupied with his young cub. He was completely unprepared and inhaled a mouthful of the Spirit-Eroding and Muscle-Weakening Powder, immediately feeling dizzy and unsteady on his feet.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and immediately held his breath. Although he was still poisoned, he had only inhaled one breath, and he immediately circulated his internal energy, which temporarily suppressed the poison.

Unlike Shen Qinghan, who, lacking experience and navigating the martial world alone for the first time, fell victim to the poison in her sleep and was only awakened when the poison had already penetrated deep into her body, the Black Bear Demon King only inhaled a single breath. Although the medicine was potent, it didn't immediately cause him to lose all his power.

However, if this demon king were to fight someone at this moment, not only would his strength be greatly reduced, but once he activated his internal energy in the face of an enemy, it would accelerate the flow of the medicine into his blood, and the poisoning would only become more and more severe.

The constables around them were stunned.

Using an infant as a hostage is already considered an exceptionally ruthless tactic in the martial arts world. But who would have thought that this Lord Gu would not only hold a demon hostage, but also exploit the Demon King's love for his child, poisoning his infant...

...Are you really from the Demon Suppression Division?

For a moment, everyone was in a daze. Suddenly, the image of Lord Gu, who was standing with his hands behind his back and smiling, seemed like a demon, while the black bear demon king, who was kneeling and panting with a child in one hand, looked miserable and was somewhat like a righteous person who had been tricked by evil spirits.

Gu Yan spoke casually, laughing, "This Demon King, I see your forehead is dark, which suggests you've been poisoned, your meridians are sluggish, and your demonic power is dissipating. This is truly a very bad sign."

He paused, and seeing the Black Bear Demon King's eyes wide with fury, he laughed even harder and said, "Speaking of which, I have to thank your brother from Black Wind Cave for this poison. I also got this poison from Black Wind Cave, and now it's being used on you. How ironic."

But given the Demon King's cultivation level, if he were to use up his remaining medicinal power and focus solely on escaping, he might still have a sliver of hope. However, if you intend to take the boy in your arms with you... well... that's a slim chance indeed.

But upon hearing this, the demon king was so angry that he laughed instead. He stood up straight and said, "You brat, what nonsense do you think I am, that I would abandon my child to live alone?"

This is my own flesh and blood! Even if I die today, my soul scattered, I will never abandon my child to save myself!

Although he was a demon, his words were delivered with such force and conviction that they subtly revealed a heroic and awe-inspiring presence.

In contrast, Gu Yan not only held a demon hostage and poisoned her, but now he was also coldly mocking and forcing people to abandon their children and flee. His words were harsh, and every sentence sounded like those of a demon. Everyone in the hall felt that the scene before them was truly bizarre.

But what was even more unexpected was that the Black Bear Demon King had just uttered his harsh words and hadn't even finished his last sentence when he shot out like lightning.

He roared and made a move to rush towards Gu Yan and Shen Qinghan through the door. As they became alert, he suddenly threw the demonic infant in his hand into the air, like a hidden weapon, towards the two opposite him. He then swerved sharply and shot into the air like a rocket, heading towards the roof of the hall.

The people in the lobby: "???"

What happened to the promise that you would never live alone? What happened to the promise of being your closest family?

Before the words had even finished, the son had already been thrown out as a hidden weapon to attract attention, making everyone even more suspicious in their hearts: "Is your child perhaps from the neighbor's family?"

The Black Bear Demon King truly cares about his child, but it seems that no matter how close the child is, he can never be as close as himself.

He was poisoned and surrounded. Seeing that he would likely not gain any advantage today and that the longer he endured, the more the poison would worsen, he immediately made a decision to abandon his child and flee for his life.

My son, don't blame your father for being heartless. Blame the Demon Suppression Division for being treacherous, cunning, and ruthless.

Once your father escapes, he will definitely avenge you!

Unfortunately, the bear cub was too young to speak and could only protest by crying. Otherwise, it would surely have cursed "shameless old man" a couple of times.

The black bear demon king pretended to rush through the gate, using his son as bait to buy time, while he himself burst out at full speed to try to break through the ceiling and escape from above.

He was absolutely certain he could escape with this feint. But who would have thought that the child, which he had just thrown out of his hand, would suddenly turn around and rush back towards him in the blink of an eye!

At this moment, the Black Bear Demon King was jumping with all his might, and he also had to concentrate on suppressing the toxins in his body. He never expected this to happen.

Just as he leaped into the air, his child, who was rushing back, suddenly struck him in the chest. The force of the impact was considerable; it caused his chest to churn, he coughed up blood, and he fell back down from mid-air, ultimately failing to escape the county government hall.

It was Gu Yan who made the move.

Gu Yan seemed to have anticipated this move. The moment the Black Bear Demon King's son flew out of his hand, he had already secretly used the technique of shifting the universe to redirect the momentum, causing the unfortunate young demon to change direction midway and fly back into his father's arms.

This wave of attack was truly formidable. Although the Black Bear Demon King was poisoned, he was still a cultivator at the Qi Control level. Even with his cultivation and physique, he was forced to cough up blood from the impact. How could this newborn infant withstand it? It was instantly smashed in its father's arms, bleeding from all seven orifices, its body shattered, turning into a lump of minced meat in its swaddling clothes.

Although the black bear wolf king had decided to abandon his cubs and run away, watching his cubs smash into a bloody pulp on his own body was still a different experience. Moreover, his methods had been exposed, and he couldn't escape even if he abandoned them. He could only feel more grief and anger, howling at the sky with "Ah ah ah," clearly showing his extreme rage and his miserable and desolate appearance.

But Gu Yan shook his head and said, "Demon King, you're such a terrible father. Your son was just being affectionate, wanting to throw himself into your arms, and you didn't reach out to catch him, instead letting him bump his head and bleed. How pitiful! How pitiful!"

Those around him, however, couldn't tell whether he meant the little monster who had been smashed into a pulp was more pitiful, or the old monster who was screaming in agony. But to the constables, this clearly handsome young man appeared increasingly terrifying, seemingly even more frightening than the grotesque monster opposite him.

The Black Bear Demon King was already forcibly suppressing the poison with his internal energy. Now, his anger was overwhelming, and when he heard Gu Yan's sarcasm, the grief in his heart, combined with the effects of the Soul-Eating and Tendon-Softening Powder, surged up. Finally, he could no longer suppress it, and tears and snot streamed down his face.

The enormous, fierce-looking demon king actually knelt down in court and burst into tears.

Gu Yan's original intention was to provoke him into losing control of his emotions. The faster the drug took effect, the less likely the demon king would be to escape, and the less effort it would take to fight him.

Seeing that the medicine had taken effect, Gu Yan pressed his advantage: "You've become such a big demon, crying in public like that, aren't you ashamed? Well, you just killed your own son, so you deserve it."

Although none of the constables recognized his miraculous ability to manipulate the universe, they all realized that he had used some strange method to make the young demon turn around and crash headfirst into its father, killing it.

Not to mention that the little monster was kidnapped by him from the cave of chaotic rocks from the very beginning, and he poisoned the baby in its swaddling clothes.

This person is clearly the culprit, yet he's accusing the Demon King of "killing his own son" without batting an eye. Not only are his methods ruthless, but his shamelessness and composure are truly extraordinary, leaving one in awe.

But you know what, the results are truly remarkable.

After unleashing a barrage of taunts, the Black Bear Demon King finally lost his temper, howling and charging at the insects with bloodshot eyes, screaming like he was courting death: "I'll fucking kill you!!!"

At that very moment, as the Black Bear Demon King charged out in a desperate attempt, a dark figure suddenly flashed out from outside the county government hall, swiftly attacking Gu Yan from behind like a whirlwind!
