Lin Tian's speed was unmatched by the black mist. With a single flash and grab, he caught the black mist in his hand, hitting the target without giving it any chance to cause trouble.
The most important herbs were placed in the pavilion, and if the black mist destroyed them, there would be no one to hold accountable, so Lin Tian wouldn't allow any accidents to happen.

"Junior Brother, you...you swallowed it?" Zi Yan said in astonishment, her eyes wide with disbelief as she looked at Lin Tian.
