Chapter 2025
"Damn it! Poison! Watch out!" Scott and the others were stunned when they saw the wave of white powder flowing toward them.
Though they took the Essential Detox Pills, the pills were made specifically to counter the effect of the Reaper's Breath and they
might not work on other poison.
Not daring to take the poison lightly, they backed away to dodge the powder.
Once Scott and the others backed away, the Poisonwielder took the opportunity to run and arrived by the wall surrounding the
inner courtyard.
As soon as he reached the other side of the wall, he would be safe from the Dragon Guards.
"Damn it!" Scott and Fletcher gritted out darkly.
Not only was the Poisonwielder a poison expert, but he was also a formidable martial artist who rivaled them in terms of speed
and explosive power.
Since Poisonwielder ran ahead of them, it was impossible for them to watch up to him. At that moment, they were all rendered
helpless.
"Running so soon? I won't let you get away!’ Leon sneered.
He flung his arm and sent a few daggers flying toward the Poisonwielder.
"How dare you try the same trick on me again?! Do you think I'm going to fall for it again?" The Poisonwielder scoffed and struck
the daggers down.
Leon caused him enough trouble but poisoned him with the Deadly Veratrum poison and he refused to fall for the same trick
again.
What he did not know was that Leon put the Soul Searcher instead of the Deadly Veratrum poison on the daggers this time and
the moment the daggers came into contact with the Poisonwielder, the Soul Searcher was instantly attached to him.
The Poisonwielder flipped past a wall and darted into the distance.
"Let's call this a day, kid! I will remember how you injured me today! Just wait and I will repay the 'favor' ten times more the next
time I see you! You can count on that!” The Poisonwielder said viciously.
"Sure! I'll be waiting!" Loen remained calm as the Poisonwielder disappeared in sight.
Since he already planted the Soul Searcher on the Poisonwielder, he would be able to spot the Poisonwielder wherever he was,
so he did not have any fear of the threat.
"Damn it! We were so close!"

Scott, Fletcher, and the others gathered around Leon gloomily.
Leon managed to injure the Poisonwielder and that was the perfect chance for them to eliminate the Poisonwielder, but he
managed to escape relying on his poison and power, so they failed to accomplish their mission and were all disappointed.
