Luo Qi held onto the edge of the table with both his hands as he frowned.

"Chief, do you wish to return to your room?" asked the man.

Luo Qi didn't say anything. He simply eyed the dishes in front of him and watched as they were taken away. His fingers curled into fists suddenly.

"Don't move!" He yelled suddenly. "Don't touch the dishes that I've eaten. Put them down!"

The man was startled. He had no idea what had come over Luo Qi and why the latter had issued such an order. That didn't matter now though. He barked out an order immediately.

"Everyone, stop what you're doing. Put the dishes down. Hurry up!" He turned towards Luo Qi and asked cautiously. "What's wrong, Chief?"

"There's poison in the food." Luo Qi clenched his jaw. Terror coursed through everyone when they heard what Luo Qi had said. Their faces drained of all blood.

"Poison?" Alarm flashed across the man's face. "How could that be possible? Chief, are you alright?"

"I should have thought of this. Why didn't I think of it?" Luo Qi felt his strength gradually drain from his body. This was obviously the Tranquilizing Dust. He was familiar with the poison. He began to yell, "Where's Elder Huang? Summon him immediately!"

He didn't move and simply sat there. He couldn't let anyone know that he had been poisoned and that he had been poisoned with the Tranquilizing Dust.

The man hastily ordered someone to summon Elder Huang. He seemed a little flustered. He couldn't believe that someone had poisoned Luo Qi's food. Everyone was going to get killed if Luo Qi flew into a rage.
