Half an hour after they entered, Song Jia, Dai Bao and Dai Chen exited the cave.

"Are you sure there is no more arsenic mixed in the waterfall?" Dai Chen asked.

Song Jia took out a needle and dipped it in the water.

"There's no more traces of poison." She said, putting the needle away.

Dai Chen sighed in relief.

"Well, since we got that out of the way, let's head back." Dai Bao stretched his arms.

"Mn."
