Elder Qin sat in the main hall with an ugly expression. He didn't expect to find Xiao Hai's men in Cyanwood City. This meant that Xiao Hai had started to make a move on Dragon Eagle. This was not good news.
"Does the Grand Supreme Elder know that everyone has been poisoned?" Elder Qin thought about it and felt that he should inform the Grand Supreme Elders about this.
Although he had ordered all the doctors in the city to concoct the antidote, the situation wasn't very good according to what his subordinates had said.
Most importantly, the poisoners were Xiao Hai's men. This made things even more troublesome.
Now, their Dragon Hawk and Xiao Hai were fighting with Mo Luo. However, their Xiao Hai was secretly attacking their Dragon Hawk. This was really infuriating.
More importantly, if this matter wasn't handled well, Dragon Eagle might suffer a great loss. It might even affect the warriors in Mo Luo.
Even though he wanted to send people to attack Ru City and teach them a lesson, most of their men had been poisoned. This made him angry, but he couldn't do anything.
He could only tell this matter to the Grand Elders and let them make a decision.
Seeing that the servant had gone to inform the Supreme Elders, he calmed down a little. Although Dragon Eagle's men were stationed here and everything was under his command, he couldn't make the decision when something really out of control happened. He could only leave it to the Supreme Elders.
Now that he knew that it was Xiao Hai's men who were causing trouble, he didn't dare to make the decision. He could only let the Supreme Elders make the decision.
"How is it? What did the Supreme Elders say? "Elder Qin asked hurriedly when the servant returned after the time it took for an incense stick to burn.
"Elder, the Supreme Elders said that they have already checked on those who were poisoned. The poison is too strong and they can't cure it. They want you to quickly send someone back to the encampment to invite Elder Du over. As for the discovery of Xiao Hai's men's bodies, they said to keep it a secret for now and not spread it. However, they want to report this to the External Monarch! "The servant repeated the Supreme Elder's words.
"But I'm afraid these people will not be able to last for more than three days. Even if we invite Elder Du, it will be useless?" Elder Qin said with a frown.
He sighed in his heart. Even the Great Elder was helpless. This poison was really powerful. He didn't know where Xiao Hai got such a powerful poison.
As for keeping the matter of the corpses a secret, he could understand. With the current situation, even if they knew the murderers were from Xiaohai, they couldn't do anything to them.
However, once this matter was made known to everyone, they would definitely be incomparably furious. They might not even be able to control their own situation and might even cause a mutiny.
It seemed like the Grand Elders didn't know how to deal with Xiao Hai, so they could only ask the Outer King to make a decision.
However, although Elder Qin and the rest had suppressed the news of the corpses in the Xiao Hai and the poisoning of a large number of cultivators in the Dragon Hawk encampment, there was no such thing as an impenetrable wall.
On the second day after this matter happened, the entire Cyanwood City knew about these two matters. This caused Elder Qin to be extremely angry.
"What's going on? Didn't I tell you not to tell anyone about these two things? Who was it that spread it? "Elder Qin flew into a rage in the main hall.
Now, the entire Cyanwood City knew about these two matters. Of course, they didn't know that it was the murderers sent by Xiaohai, but it was the murderers sent by Ru City.
However, when these two matters were spread out, the entire Cyanwood City was in a panic. Many commoners even wanted to leave the city and leave Cyanwood City.
After all, everyone was saying that the poison was extremely powerful. Even extremely powerful cultivators wouldn't be able to last more than three days before dying. If an ordinary person were to come into contact with this poison, they would die in less than a day.
However, the most terrifying thing was that this poison was contagious. Once someone came into contact with someone who was poisoned, they would show signs of being poisoned within two hours.
Therefore, when they heard this news, how could these commoners bear it? One after another, they packed up their belongings and prepared to run away. If they didn't run away now, they would only be waiting for death.
However, the City Lord's Mansion gave a death order at this moment. No matter who it was, no one was allowed to leave the city.
That was because he knew very well that if the commoners were allowed to leave the city, the news would spread even further. At that time, everyone in the surroundings would know that a contagious poison had appeared in Cyanwood City. That would be disastrous.
However, the fact that the commoners were not allowed to leave the city angered all of them.
"Why won't you let us leave the city?"
"That's right. Now that the poison has spread in the city, if you don't let us leave, we will all die here. I don't want that to happen!"
"I don't want to die either. Quickly open the city gates and let us out!"
All of the commoners blocked the city gates, wanting to leave. There were even many commoners who took out their weapons and were about to rush out.
However, the city guards couldn't care less. They couldn't do anything about the rioting commoners, so they could only kill the more extreme commoners with a single slash.
When they saw the soldiers actually starting to kill people, all of the commoners were instantly frightened.
The reason why they wanted to leave the city was because they wanted to live. However, now that the soldiers were killing people to prevent them from leaving the city, they didn't dare to be so impulsive.
After all, although they might be infected by the poison if they stayed in the city, they still had a chance to live. However, if they wanted to rush out of the city gates, they would be directly killed by the soldiers. They were afraid.
"The city lord has ordered that no one is allowed to leave the city. If anyone disobeys the order, they will be executed. Quickly go home. During this period of time, try to stay at home and don't go out. Also, don't have any physical contact with strangers. That way, you won't be infected by the poison. " It was impossible for the city guard to kill everyone here. If he could persuade these people to go back, that would naturally be the best thing.
When the commoners heard the city guard's words, although they were somewhat unwilling, they still wanted to leave the city. However, when they saw the blade that was still dripping with blood, no one dared to rush the city gates again.
Some commoners knew that it was impossible to leave the city, so they could only temporarily return home. However, some commoners weren't so easily sent away. Although they didn't go home, they didn't rush the city gates again. They just stood in front of the city guards.
"You're still not leaving? Do you want to eat a knife?" Seeing the commoners staring at them without moving, the city guard waved the blade in his hand impatiently.
"General, just let us out of the city. We're not bad people. There's no point in keeping us here!"
"Yes! General, do a good deed and let us out of the city. "
The commoners looked at the shining blade in the city guard's hand. Although they were afraid, they still mustered up the courage to beg the general.
