"Of course not." The second elder shook his head and said with a bitter expression,"back in the demon Realm, we were loyal to the demon race, but we were bullied. That's why we thought of ways to leave the demon Realm and return to the sect's sage realm. However, the demon race would not let us leave so easily. When Gongxi kuangdao and the others returned to the sect's Sacred Realm, the devil race sensed something and secretly poisoned us. At that time, Gongxi kuangdao and the others were in the sect's Sacred Realm, and you were in closed-door cultivation, so you were lucky and avoided a disaster.

However, we didn't tell you because we were afraid of causing panic.
