Circe nodded. "Yes. I was stung by the poisonous bees they released, and that's why I passed out."
A young disciple walked out and said solemnly, "Circe, when we found you, there were only you and the weird man at Falling Zen Temple. There were no other people."
How could that be?
Circe's eyebrows furrowed.
How could so many people disappear suddenly?
Tuji waved his hand. "Bring that stranger here."
"Yes, Chief," answered two disciples and strode out of the conference hall.
Not long later, they dragged the still-unconscious Antigonus to the hall. He was interrupted during his cultivation to recover, and that messed up the Power of the Fiend Soul. Later, he was forced to use his power to agglomerate the fireball. Thus, Antigonus was in danger.
Tuji looked at Antigonus and said coldly, "Wake him up with water."
A disciple went outside and got a bucket of cold water. He then poured the cold water from the top of Antigonus' head.
Due to how cold the water was, Antigonus jolted awake as his eyelids flung open. A second later, he saw Circe sitting in front of him, and he calmed down quickly.
"Who are you?" Tuji glared at Antigonus and asked unkindly, "Why were you at the forbidden area of my family?"
He talked with an arrogant and proud tone.
