"Please wait a moment."
Arthur smiled and replied calmly, "My master suffers from a chronic disease, so she rarely goes out. I'm afraid she is still resting in her chambers."
Then, he clapped his hands and said, "Serve tea to these two distinguished guests, please."
As soon as he finished speaking, the two maids entered the hall, carrying the freshly brewed cups of tea. They poured a cup for each of the two guests.
The scent of the tea permeated the whole hall.
"It smells good."
Queenie exclaimed when she smelled the aroma of the tea.
Arthur replied with a smile, "It seems like you know something about tea. This tea is called Fragrance, which is a specialty in our area. You can't find this tea anywhere else in the world."
He looked polite when he spoke, but his eyes flashed with a hint of cunningness.
Yes, the tea was poisoned.
In the past few days, the Five Poison Sect disciples had captured many famous doctors from all over the world. They had poisoned their tea to ensure they could control those doctors.
Yes!
Celine did not notice anything wrong with Arthur. She nodded and smiled. "Thank you for your hospitality." She picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Queenie took a sip as well.
Arthur was extremely excited and proud when he saw that the two had drunk the tea, but he still maintained his politeness. "Enjoy yourself. I'll go get my master out."
Then, he walked out of the hall quickly.
At that moment, in a secret room in the Maple Division's backyard.
Kendall sat with her legs crossed. Her delicate face was pale, and her forehead was covered in sweat. Her body was trembling too.
Skylar sat on the chair next to her. He had been tied up.
