The bracelet shone, forming a light shield that enveloped the great hall. Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, now that they were safe.
"I wonder how things are outside?"
"Clan Leader, did you capture the Ninth Elder?"
They discussed among themselves as they waited, but their reprieve was short-lived. Unexpectedly, a mysterious black mist began to swirl out from the bracelet.
Ye Ruxue bore the brunt of it. She felt a wave of dizziness, her body weakened, and she collapsed to the ground. Looking down, she saw that the bracelet was now gushing a large amount of black mist.
"What is happening? What is this?" Ye Ruxue screamed as she tried to pull the bracelet off, but she found she couldn't.
The others were stunned. What's happening? How can there be black mist inside the bracelet?
Someone went over to investigate, only to fall to the ground with a thud.
"This is bad! The black mist is poisonous!"
Everyone's faces changed drastically.
