Chapter 506
At one of the mansions in Royal Bay
Everyone except Xeno was present.
Finn lay on a single bed.
A thin blanket was placed over him.
His right cheek was the one that had gotten slashed by the poisonous
arrow, and it had swelled up. The wound was infected and filled with
pus.
Tears welled in Yasmin’s eyes. “Can… Can Finn be saved?”
The image of Finn catching her was still fresh in her mind.
Finn had gotten in danger because he was trying to protect the
industrial zone.
Derek said comfortingly, “Nash is here. Finn will be alright!”
Melody said angrily, “I never imagined these distinguished factions to

After all, Carrion Mountain was supposed to be a sacred space. Who
would have thought it housed such insidious and cunning disciples?
Not only had they attacked without any forewarning, but they had
also lathered their arrows with poison!
Her respect for Carrion Mountain had reduced greatly.
Nash stroked his chin and said, “They might hail from Carrion

Cloud Ascendant Palace!”
“Isn’t the Cloud Ascendant Palace the only faction that resides in Carrion Mountain?” Melody asked, confused.
“The Cloud Ascendant Palace is relatively famous in the martial arts sphere, but there are plenty of others that fly
under the radar as well.
“Take Tili Mountain as an example. It houses a multitude of factions that claim to be powerful, but only a few are
truly able to live up to their name!”
“Then, where did they get the Five Poisonous Pines from?” Melody asked, her curiosity piqued.

“My hunch is that they’re being led by a council member who snuck out from the Cloud Ascendant Palace. That
person must’ve brought
along either the Five Poisonous Pines or the formula for it with them!”
Things seemed much clearer to Nash in hindsight. The Cloud
Ascendant Palace had plenty of rules and regulations in place, and it

He had not expected a relatively powerless faction to have
connections with someone in Carrion Mountain.
They were not all that powerful, but it was always much more difficult to fight against someone who refused to step
into the open. If they let their guard down even the slightest, they would get injured.
It would probably take him the next two days to prepare the antidote.
Maria prepared dinner for everyone.
Yasmin and the others left after having dinner.
Nash called Fabian to let him know he would not be able to make it to
the office for the next two days.
Fabian’s response was to tell him he could use his time in any way he
wished.
However, what Fabian did not know was that someone else had
tapped into his conversation with Nash.
In a luxurious mansion by the sea, Yvette sat before her laptop with
an earpiece in her ear.
She had listened to the recording of Nash and Fabian’s conversation
