When Master Nine contacted him again, Gu Kechen, the Supreme Elder of the Emotionless Sect, couldn't hide his anxiety. "My Lord, the poison you had me spread can infect even Cultivators! Why... why didn't you tell me beforehand?"
Master Nine's voice seemed somewhat taken aback. "Oh? Is that so? I wasn't aware. Perhaps the poison has undergone some changes I don't know about. But it's fine. Even if Qi Cultivation Cultivators get infected, it won't spread to Foundation Establishment and Core Formation."
Gu Kechen said in exasperation, "But a Foundation Establishment Cultivator was infected yesterday! If this continues, it's only a matter of time before Core Formation Masters get infected! My Lord, I need you to tell me the truth. Are we... are we in danger?"
"How could that be possible? You're Core Formation Masters! Core Formation Masters! My target isn't you. I just want to kill some mortals and forge a Demon Artifact."
