Wei Chenghao was plotting a new scheme in the military tent outside Qingyang City. The last defeat made him realize that Li Ye and his companions were exceptionally powerful, and he needed to devise a more insidious strategy to deal with them. Sitting in the tent with a cold gaze, he held an ancient book on poison techniques. He had already decided that his next step would be to use poison to weaken Li Ye and his group’s combat effectiveness.
Wei Chenghao knew that to spread the toxin widely within Qingyang City, he had to find an appropriate method of poisoning. He decided to target the city’s water supply, allowing the poison to spread rapidly and silently infiltrate every corner. He ordered Shen Jiuniang to prepare enough poison and instructed her to secretly enter the city to find suitable points for poisoning.
As night deepened, Wei Chenghao's conspiracy gradually took shape. He knew that if this plan succeeded, Li Ye and his companions would undoubtedly fall into an unprecedented crisis. And he would once again seize the initiative.
As Wei Chenghao's plan was gradually implemented, the common people of Qingyang City began to show symptoms of poisoning. Initially, it was just a few individuals, but soon more and more people were affected. An unsettling atmosphere began to permeate the city, and rumors started to spread. Some said Zhang Tianba was merely a puppet supported by Li Ye, with Li Ye truly holding power; others claimed that the poison in the city was due to Li Ye controlling zombies on the battlefield, causing the outbreak of toxins among the populace; even more outrageous rumors suggested that Li Ye was lecherous and indifferent to life and death, not even sparing female zombies.
"Have you heard? That kid Li Ye not only controls Qingyang City but also has his hands on zombies; he's simply inhuman!"
"Yeah, I heard that the female zombie Liu Fei on the city wall was one of Li Ye's victims; this poison might have come from them!"
"Some say Li Ye is not only targeting female zombies but is also secretly practicing some dark arts, planning to control our souls!"
In no time, fear and suspicion towards Li Ye and his companions grew immensely among the common people of Qingyang City.
In this situation, Zhiruo was studying the Heavenly Physician Ancient Scroll while disregarding her own safety in search of an antidote. To experience the effects of the poison, she even tested it on herself. Each time she coughed up blood, Li Ye and Yan Yuchen felt as if their hearts were being pierced with needles.
Li Ye sat by Zhiruo's bedside, filled with worry and pain. "Zhiruo, if you keep this up, it will cost you your life!"
Zhiruo's face was pale as she forced out a faint smile. "Brother Ye, I am a physician. If I cannot find a way to detoxify, our people in the city will be doomed."
Yan Yuchen stood nearby with tears glistening in her eyes. "Sister Zhiruo, we can think of other ways; you don’t have to test the poison yourself!"
Zhiruo shook her head firmly. "Only by experiencing the toxicity firsthand can I find a more accurate antidote. Besides, I have the Heavenly Physician Ancient Scroll for protection; I will be fine."
At this moment, the situation in the city became increasingly tense, and rumors spread widely. Li Ye knew that if they could not quickly find a way to detoxify and clarify the facts, the people's trust in Qingyang City would completely collapse. Meanwhile, Zhiruo's efforts finally began to show some progress.
Zhiruo held a newly formulated detoxification prescription in her hand. She struggled to sit up and handed the prescription to Li Ye. "Brother Ye, this prescription has a high chance of being effective. Please hurry and prepare the medicinal materials; we cannot delay any longer."
Li Ye took the prescription, a glimmer of hope flashing in his eyes. "Zhiruo, you must rest well. Leave the rest to me and Yan Yuchen."
Yan Yuchen nodded, holding Zhiruo's hand firmly. "Sister Zhiruo, don't worry. We will prepare the medicinal materials as soon as possible and cure everyone."
Li Ye and Yan Yuchen quickly sprang into action, searching for medicinal materials and preparing the detoxification medicine. At the same time, they also began investigating the source of the rumors in the city, trying to restore the truth and stabilize public sentiment. In this difficult time, each of them was doing their utmost to protect Qingyang City.
Li Ye went to gather herbs with the prescription, but unexpectedly, this action sparked new rumors. Soon, the common people in the city began to spread tales that Li Ye had known how to detoxify all along but had been reluctant to help, completely disregarding everyone's lives.
"I heard that Li Ye already had the prescription, but he just won't save us!"
"Yeah, he took the prescription to gather herbs but isn't giving us a cure. What is he really planning?"
"Could it be true what they say? That he only cares about himself and his two women?"
These slanderous whispers pierced Li Ye's heart like poisoned arrows, causing him immense pain and helplessness. Meanwhile, Wei Chenghao sat outside the city in his military tent, a slight smirk on his lips as everything seemed to be going according to his plan.
Wei Chenghao coldly gazed at the map in his hands and muttered to himself, "Li Ye, no matter how clever you are, you can't outsmart me. Let me show you what it feels like to be abandoned by everyone."
In the city, Li Ye and Yan Yuchen rushed around trying to clarify everything. However, faced with the common people's doubts and fears, their voices seemed so weak. Zhiruo's health continued to deteriorate, yet she remained relentless in her research on detoxification methods, constantly improving the prescription.
In a dimly lit room, Li Ye carefully arranged the medicinal herbs and began to prepare the antidote under Zhiruo's guidance. His hands trembled, but his heart was filled with unwavering determination.
"I cannot give up," Li Ye thought to himself. "No matter what, I must save the people of Qingyang City."
At that moment, Yan Yuchen walked in. Her face was pale, her eyes filled with exhaustion, yet she still wore a resolute expression.
"Brother Ye, the rumors outside are getting worse, and the Common People are losing patience," Yan Yuchen said softly. "We must find a way to detoxify quickly; otherwise, the entire Qingyang City will fall into chaos."
Li Ye nodded and continued to focus on his work. As he mixed the herbs, a glimmer of hope began to ignite in his heart.
Meanwhile, Wei Chenghao convened a secret meeting in the military tent with his trusted subordinates gathered around him.
"Lord Wei, it seems that Li Ye and his group have found the antidote. If they succeed in detoxifying, our plans will fail," one of his subordinates said anxiously.
Wei Chenghao sneered. "Don't worry. Even if they find the antidote, it doesn't mean they can detoxify successfully. We still have backup plans."
He pulled out a map and pointed to several key locations in Qingyang City. "We have already introduced slow-acting poison into multiple water sources within the city. Even if they manage to cure the immediate poison, they won't be able to resolve the long-term issue. As long as we continue to deepen the Common People's panic, they will eventually lose all trust in Li Ye."
Wei Chenghao's plan was insidious and meticulous. He knew that once the Common People completely lost faith in Li Ye, Qingyang City would descend into internal strife. At that point, he could take advantage of the chaos to easily reclaim the city.
The situation in Qingyang City grew increasingly tense as Li Ye and Yan Yuchen struggled to find hope amid the doubts and fears of the Common People, while Wei Chenghao secretly manipulated everything, waiting for his moment of ultimate victory.
