"cough......"
With another soft cough, Wu Er released his aura once more, silencing the noisy human and demon.
If they keep arguing like this...
To maintain his refined image, Wu Er will probably have to keep coughing.
With such frequent coughing, even an immortal might develop pharyngitis, and it might even develop into pneumonia...
Perhaps because he didn't want to cough anymore, Wu Er had no choice but to say dangerously, "Any further offense will be punished with death! Listen carefully, you may only answer after I have asked you a question!"
The sound effects were pushed to the limit, making the blood-stained snow on the ground rise higher and the clouds in the sky more chaotic, so that the eardrums of those who heard the sound would vibrate even more.
After uttering such a statement, the two groups of hot-tempered men in the northern border region were finally intimidated.
Now that things have been said like this, there shouldn't be any more arguments, right?
Wu Er subconsciously touched his throat, feeling a slight pain, probably from coughing too many times.
Alright, having completely stabilized the two groups, Wu Er was now ready to address the problem.
Although it was originally none of his business, he just loves to meddle in other people's affairs.
"Poisoning, is that it? What kind of poison?" Wu Er asked the snow wolf demon in a cold voice.
The snow wolf demon was truly frightened. When Wu Er asked it a question, its legs went weak and it knelt down, making a few "woofing" sounds.
He looks a bit like a frightened puppy... This is quite a reversal.
Seeing the snow wolf demon howling on the ground but not saying a word, Wu Er felt a sense of helplessness.
Am I really that scary? How could I scare a demon like that?
If you remain fearless and silent, you won't solve anything!
Helpless, Wu Er could only say in a relatively gentle voice, "If you have any grievances, just say them, and I will definitely help you overcome your difficulties. Immortals are meant to save all living beings."
After softening the voice, it worked!
The snow wolf demon raised its head and said in a low voice, "Immortal, I don't know what kind of poison that is..."
Upon hearing this, Wu Er sighed inwardly.
That's true. Given the average intelligence of the demon race, it's already quite impressive that they can tell they've been poisoned; you can't expect them to know what kind of poison it is.
"What are the symptoms of the poisoning?" Wu Er asked again.
Okay, since you don't know what kind of poison it is, tell me and help me analyze it.
Upon hearing this, the snow wolf demon began to describe it.
But the demon race's ability to express themselves... is truly indescribable.
Perhaps Wu Er didn't understand the culture of the demon race, nor the strange cries they made, so after listening to the snow wolf demon talk for a long time, he still couldn't understand anything.
Sure enough, even when a demon takes human form, cross-species communication is still difficult.
Since he couldn't understand the human speech with the wolf accent, Wu Er could only say, "Is there a sick person? Bring them here."
Since it's hard to explain, let's just see it for ourselves.
Having received the order, the snow wolf demon replied in a low voice, "Please wait, immortal."
Wu Er nodded, making his stance clear.
Seeing Wu Er nod, the snow wolf demon breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around and barked twice at the demons who had come with him.
This time, they didn't speak human language either; they spoke wolf language directly.
Strangely enough, the purer the bloodline of a demon, the more it prefers to use the language of humans, while those less pure-blooded demons still maintain the traditional language of the demon race.
That is rather strange.
However, after the snow wolf demon gave the order, several demons transformed back into their original forms and ran off into the distance.
They seemed to be in a hurry, taking each step with great force, leaving countless footprints on the silvery-white snow.
They must be going to pick up the demons who were poisoned.
But is it really necessary to deal with so many demons to poison one demon at a time?
Wu Er stopped thinking about it and just waited patiently.
Although he was extremely knowledgeable about poisons and hadn't read many books about them during his two hundred years of seclusion, he could always be cured thanks to the powerful abilities of an immortal.
By the way, Wu Er, with his naturally clever mind, can help these demons analyze the situation and resolve the conflict.
This would reduce casualties and also protect the pure white snowfield from pollution.
Waiting is always tedious.
This applies to Wu Er.
For the humans and demons below, this was rather agonizing.
After all, they were under the pressure of an immortal. Even though Wu Er didn't deliberately create a tense atmosphere, they couldn't help but feel nervous.
I guess this is what they call scaring yourself.
Fortunately, even a long wait will eventually come to an end.
Wu Er's ears twitched in the sky.
He heard some sounds, the sound of something sliding on the snow.
After a while, it wasn't just Wu Er who heard the sound; the people and demons on the ground also heard it.
"Hush, hum..."
On the distant snow, several demons in their original forms were wrapped in iron chains, which led to a huge iron cage.
It was because this iron cage was pulled that it made that sound.
Why would a poisoned demon be kept in an iron cage?
Wu Er immediately realized that something was wrong, and at the same time, an ominous premonition filled his heart.
The iron cage was pulled over by several demons and placed horizontally between the human and demon races.
"Immortal, this is my son. He has become like this because he was poisoned!"
The snow wolf demon raised its head and shouted something to Wu Er.
After saying this, the snow wolf demon glanced at the cage again, then couldn't help but let out a sorrowful howl towards the sky.
