“Then it’s just a feeling. Aren’t you still standing here well? I think you shouldn’t think so much.”
“What do you mean by thinking blindly? This is all true. I saw it with my own eyes just now. You have to believe me. We’ve been together for so long. When have 1 ever lied to you?”
The squad leader’s words made the team members very puzzled. They did not know what was wrong with him. He looked like he had gone crazy.
However, he used to be a very normal person. Why did he become like this after walking around this place? What exactly happened?
“Captain, are you okay? You’re so scary. If we had done anything wrong in the past, you could have just said it. Why are you like this?”
The captain stared at his team members with wide eyes and said,””Why would I lie to you? This is all true. I saw it with my own eyes inside. Oh right, this young master also saw it with his own eyes.”
The squad leader pulled Li Yuanqing over and treated him as a witness.
The team members ‘gazes fell on Li Yuanqing. Li Yuanqing’s face darkened as he said without a word, Now go back to the night
“Young master, what is your name? You can’t just leave like this. This place is such a good place. When you go back, you must tell the city lord clearly and ask the city lord to take over this place as soon as possible.”
“Did he not make himself clear enough? Now, quickly withdraw your troops and wait for orders.”
Lil Man stared at them coldly.
The team members who were still hesitating immediately waited obediently when they saw the murderous look in the state preceptor’s eyes. Their captain, who seemed to have fallen into madness, rushed into the city.
After they left, Li Yuanqing brought Xiao Man back to this mysterious space. This secret realm was really strange.
Lil Man had only stayed here for a short while before she had almost figured out the situation here.
“Young Master, although this plant looks harmless to humans and animals, it is very addictive. Normally, the gas produced by this plant could reduce a lot of pain and had a strong paralysis effect. If one was injured during cultivation or battle, this thing could be used to relieve pain. It was a very good choice.”
“So you’re saying that this is something that doesn’t pose any threat?”
“You can’t say that. In fact, this kind of race is a very big threat to the human race. The human race has the weakest willpower.”
“Is it that dangerous?”
“It might be more difficult to solve than 1 imagined, but it’s not absolute.”Xiao Man stroked her chin as she pondered,” Although it has a strong addiction, it is also helpful for one’s cultivation. It just depends on how one chooses. If one has enough self-control, it is actually a good thing to assist in cultivation.”
Li Yuanqing’s expression was not good. It sounded like a rather dangerous plant. If it was such a great threat to the human race, then it was even more impossible to open this mystic realm.
Why this mystic realm appeared here and who did it were all mysteries.
“It’s better to temporarily seal this place. It won’t be too late to release it when the time is right.”
“Everything will be decided by Master.”
Li Yuanqing had set up a simple array at the entrance to temporarily cover this place. In order to prevent others from discovering it, this array was set up quite strictly. If anyone approached, there would be a reaction.
After setting up, the two of them returned to the city. However, the atmosphere in Sea City seemed to be very different from before Li Yuanqing and the others left.
The streets were originally bustling with activity, and everyone was very mobile. Although there were many people on the streets, most of them were gathered together. They did not speak and just huddled together. Their bodies were twisting uneasily and they would make strange sounds for no reason, as if they were trying their best to restrain something.
“What happened to Master and the others? It looks so scary.”
The two of them landed on the street and walked for a long time. The scene along the way was really frightening. They had only left for a short time and hadn’t even gone far. Why had they become like this after returning? What exactly happened?
Li Yuanqing walked to the side of the street and grabbed a person’s hand, pulling her over. This person turned his face to Li Yuanqing, revealing a crazed expression.
“So happy! That’s great!”
He kept muttering, and just this one sentence, which was to look carefully, was repeated by the others. The scene was extremely strange.
“What’s wrong with them? Why did it suddenly become like this? What exactly happened?”
Li Yuanqing frowned. The situation before him was too strange. Such a huge change had happened in such a short period of time. Even he was somewhat caught off guard.
“City Lord Manor!”
Li Yuanqing seemed to have suddenly thought of something. He hurriedly turned around and rushed in the direction of the City Lord’s Estate. At this moment, everyone here had become like this. If the City Lord’s Estate fell again, everything would be terrible.
Ye Qiluo was sitting on the main seat in the City Lord’s Mansion, and there were many generals beside her. However, their eyes were closed and they were constantly cultivating. Their bodies were also steaming.
When Li Yuanqing arrived, Ye Qiluo had just finished her detoxification.
Young Master Li, you’re back!”
Ye Qiluo looked at Li Yuanqing with a pale face, as if she had just suffered a very intense battle.
“What exactly happened?”
Ye Qiluo took a deep breath, her chest rising and falling slightly.
“The team members who went to the Southern Mystery Land to investigate just now should have brought something back with them. Since they came back, it seems that a poison has spread throughout the entire city. It has only been half an incense stick’s time, but it has already spread throughout the entire Sea City. Now, everyone has been poisoned. Young Master Li, how can you think of a way to detoxify it?”
Li Yuanqing had also noticed that the strange energy in Sea City Base had increased by many times. It was brought back by them. However, he had checked carefully just now, but he still couldn’t find anything wrong.
What was even more unexpected was that this thing’s reproduction speed was actually so fast. In just an hour, it could reproduce to such a degree. This was simply impossible to guard against. As long as this thing was put away, there would be no room for maneuver.
“Xiao Man, how long will it take to develop the antidote?”
The Man-eating Vine frowned slightly.” Master, to be honest, 1 don’t know much about this thing. 1 only know that there is such an antidote, but I’ve never made it before. If you want to make it in a short period of time, I can’t do anything.”
“Is there no other way now?”
There was a way to delay time.”
“What is it?”
The Man-eating Vine said helplessly,” If they are already addicted, then we can only keep increasing the dosage to maintain their rationality. Otherwise, they will completely fall into madness and destroy their entire divine sense. That will be very dangerous.”
“Are you saying that we should just leave it alone?”
“We didn’t just leave them be. Sea City Base’s environment couldn’t support them growing on a large scale. We could only get enough products from the secret realm..”
