Three days time wasn't fast, but it wasn't slow either. However, to the commoners of Cyanwood City, three days felt like a year.
Ever since the outbreak of the contagious poison in the city, everyone no longer dared to wander around the streets as usual. Because everyone was afraid of being infected by the poison.
Therefore, in these three days, everyone was in a state of panic and fear. No one dared to come into contact with strangers.
However, even in the city lord's mansion, everyone became extremely cautious when they saw others. Even if the servants in the mansion met an acquaintance, they didn't dare to speak much and didn't dare to get too close.
Because no one knew if the other party had been poisoned or not. If the other party was already poisoned and he was accidentally infected, then it would be unjust.
However, in the west courtyard of Cyanwood City, Cheng Yu was sitting in his room with a relaxed face. It seemed like he was not affected by the mood of the people outside.
"Seems like we have underestimated them. I didn't expect them to be so reliable!" Cheng Yu chuckled in his heart. He picked up the teapot on the chair and poured himself a cup of tea. He slowly drank it.
The poison was obtained from the Venomous Monarch Toad. Although the Venomous Monarch Toad was not very obedient after being subdued by Cheng Yu, after Cheng Yu had threatened and enticed it many times, it still managed to obtain some poison for Cheng Yu.
One must know that the Poisonous Toad King's poison was not something an ordinary poison could compare to. In his opinion, the Poisonous Toad King's poison was even more powerful than the Thousand Flower Soul Eroding Fragrance concocted by the Poison Immortal.
Although the poison in Wushuang's body would take a longer time to cure, that was because the poison in her body had already taken effect. Moreover, it was impossible for Cheng Yu to give her a large amount of blood. Every time, he would only give her a small amount.
If the Thousand Flower Soul Eroding Fragrance was poisoned by Cheng Yu, then with the amount of golden blood in his body, it wouldn't take long for the poison to be cured.
Furthermore, the number of poisons in the Poisonous Toad King's body was uncountable. In addition, the poison that they were poisoned with was not the strongest poison released by the Poisonous Toad King.
Furthermore, the stronger the Poisonous Toad King was, the stronger the poison in its body would be. Just like the Hundred Year Poison Monarch Toad's poison could only poison cultivators below the Spirit Severing Stage, but the Thousand Year Poison Monarch Toad could even poison a Great Ascension Stage cultivator to death.
As long as the strength of the poisonous toad king continued to grow, it would be easy to poison a master of the late dacheng stage in the future.
This time, Cheng Yu borrowed some venom from the Poison King Toad. However, the poison wasn't planted by him. Instead, it was done by those women he had left in Qingmu City.
He only secretly gave them the poison. He was worried that they wouldn't be able to do it well. But now, it seemed that they had done a very good job.
Now that three days had passed, Cheng Yu was very confident in the King Toad's poison. If it weren't for him possessing the antidote Golden Blood, even he would have been helpless against Venom and could only wait for death.
Thus, he believed that there was simply no one in Cyanwood City that could cure this poison. In the western city encampment, many people from Dragon Eagle must have died.
It was time for the second step of his plan.
By the time he finished his cup of tea, it was already late at night.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
It was at this moment, a few fiery red signal flares appeared above the east gate, dying the whole city red. The moment the signal flares exploded, the whole city seemed to have turned into daytime.
"What's going on?"
"City lord! Enemy attack! "
"Enemy attack? Why would there be an enemy attack? Where did they attack? "When Qing Hai heard the sound of the signal flares, he rushed out of the room hastily.
"City lord, the east gate was attacked!" The guard ran over and reported in panic.
"East gate attacked? Could it be Xiao Hai attacked again? "When Qing Hai heard that the east gate had been attacked, he immediately became nervous.
Now, everyone in Qingmu City knew that Ru City had come to their Qingmu City to release poison. However, as the city lord, what he thought of was much more than these commoners.
Standing behind Ru City was the Xiao Hai Dynasty. With the Ru Family's boldness, they would definitely not dare to deal with Qingmu City so arrogantly. The reason was simple. If it was really done by Ru City, their target would only be the city lord's mansion and not the people from Dragon Eagle.
Since these people attacked Dragon Eagle's encampment, the people behind it must be Xiao Hai's people.
Now that the east gate was attacked again, it was very likely that Xiao Hai's people had attacked again. However, didn't Elder Qin say that Dragon Eagle had formed an alliance with Xiao Hai? Moreover, the situation at the northern frontline was great. Dragon Eagle and Xiao Hai's alliance were breaking through like bamboo, attacking Moruo step by step.
Based on this situation, the relationship between Dragon Eagle and Xiao Hai should be getting better. However, why did Xiao Hai suddenly attack Dragon Eagle?
Could it be that the Xiao Hai Seal was ambitious and wanted to kill two birds with one stone? Not only did he want to defeat Moruo, but he also wanted to defeat Dragon Eagle?
However, there was no time for him to think further. He didn't know how many people Xiao Hai had sent this time. If the east gate was breached, then it would be really dangerous this time.
"Mr. Hu, the east gate was attacked. Please follow me to check out the situation!" Qing Hai came to Cheng Yu's room and knocked on the door lightly. However, from his voice, it could be heard that he was very anxious.
"The east gate was attacked? Could it be Ru City's people attacked again? "After a while, Cheng Yu came out from the room and asked.
"I'm not sure for the time being. However, it's most likely Ru City's people. To disturb Mr. Hu so late at night, this city lord is very apologetic. "Qing Hai shook his head.
"No worries. This concerns the safety of Cyanwood City. How can I decline? Protecting Cyanwood City is my responsibility as a guest elder of the city lord's mansion!" Cheng Yu said.
"Mr. Hu is very righteous." Hearing Cheng Yu's words, Qing Hai was very touched.
After all, among these guest elders, only Cheng Yu was the most polite to him. As for the other guest elders, when he went to look for them, they were all discontented or unwilling.
When Cheng Yu and Qing Hai arrived at the main hall, the other guests invited by Qing Hai were already waiting there. However, when they saw Cheng Yu, the last person Qing Hai invited, making them wait here, they were somewhat displeased.
Especially those few Great Ascension Realm guest elders. When they looked at Cheng Yu, they didn't have a good expression. After all, in their opinion, as Great Ascension Realm experts, they were willing to stay in such a small city lord's mansion. This was already giving Qing Hai a lot of face.
However, this Qing Hai didn't know how to appreciate favors. Cheng Yu was just a small Body Integration Realm. Although he was only a step away from the Great Ascension Realm, it was still hard to say if Cheng Yu would be able to take that step.
