Chapter 331: Change in the Liang Nation, Plague Calamity

Both of their expressions were solemn.
When Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan saw them like this, they knew that something must have happened while they were away.
Hence, Jiang Chengxuan asked directly, “Renyi, Linglong, did something happen?”
Jiang Renyi and Liu Linglong exchanged a glance.
Jiang Renyi nodded and said, “Granduncle, something happened in the Liang Nation recently.”
“Oh? Tell me in detail.”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan also looked serious.
They knew that if the matter was not serious, with Jiang Renyi and Liu Linglong s character, they would not be like that.
Jiang Renyi nodded and said, “Not long after you left the Liang Nation that day, a plague broke out in Sangming County.1’
“Plague?”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan frowned.
“Yes.” Jiang Renyi nodded. “This plague is very lethal. Once a mortal is infected, their entire body will fester and die in three days.
At first, this plague was only effective on mortals, but not long after, even cultivators at the early to mid stage of Qi Refinement were infected.
Later, even cultivators at the late-stage Qi Refinement or the early-stage Foundation Establishment will find it difficult to resist rhe invasion of this plague.”
“What did you say?”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were shocked.
They didn’t think much of it when they heard that there was a plague.
After all, the world they were in now was not an ordinary ancient world, bur a cultivation world with cultivation inheritance.
To cultivators, resolving a plague was a piece of cake.
However, the more they listened, the more they found that this matter was nor to be underestimated at all.
If even Foundation Establishment cultivators could be infected, it meant that it was no longer an ordinary plague.
Moreover, according to Jiang Renyi s description just now, the progress of this plague was extremely fast.
From being only effective against mortals to being effective against cultivators at the early to mid stage of the Qi Refinement, and finally threatening cultivators at the late-stage of the Qi Refinement and the early-stage of the Foundation Establishment, this process didn’t take long.
At this rate, it was hard to say if it would affect mid-stage and late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.
“What’s the general situation now?”
Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t help but speak in a low voice.
“If I remember correctly, there are two Violet Palace forces in Sangming County, the Ulusionary Water Sect and the Li family, right?
Don’t they have a good solution for this?”
Jiang Renyi and Liu Linglong shook their heads.
Liu Linglong said, “It’s said that the Violet Palace cultivators of the Ulusionary Water Sect and the Li family have already tried to the best of their ability, but they’re still helpless against the plague.
As for rhe Jade Water Sword Pavilion, because most of their cultivators specialize in fighting techniques, they haven’t found a way to effectively eliminate the plague.
At the moment, they can only temporarily use the array to seal the entire Sangming County.
However, just yesterday, it’s said that there are also infected mortals in Blue Maple County, which is closest to Sangming County.
Now, we can only put hope on the Heavenly Yue Sect that has spiritual doctors.”
The spiritual doctor mentioned by Liu Linglong belonged to one of the occupations in the cultivation world.
However, there were some similarities between alchemists and spiritual doctors.
Moreover, regardless of income or status, alchemists were higher than spiritual doctors. Therefore, most people with medical talents would choose to become alchemists and not spiritual doctors.
Coupled with the fact that becoming a spiritual doctor was not any less difficult than becoming an alchemist, not many people would choose to walk down this path.
There were even fewer people who were proficient in it.
At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan realized that if this matter was not handled well, it might eventually turn into a nationwide disaster.
At that time, countless mortals and cultivators below the Violet Palace would die.
Once that happened, it would definitely shake the foundation of the Liang Nation.
At that time, even Golden Core forces like the Jiang family, the Jade Water Sword Pavilion, and the Heavenly Yue Sect would be affected. They might even be wiped out.
This was because to families and sects, mortals and low-level cultivators were always the most important foundation.
Without this foundation, there would not be a new supply of talents, and they were naturally not far from extinction.
So.
Although this matter did not endanger Qi an County or the Jiang family for the time being, the Jiang family had to take action in advance.
Fortunately, Jiang Renyi and Liu Linglong were well prepared.
They had monitored all the cultivators entering and leaving Qi an County.
Especially the cultivators who came from Sangming County and Blue Maple County, they were strictly forbidden from entering.
The person in charge of this matter was Jiang Rendao, who was at the mid-stage Violet Palace, as well as some Violet Palace cultivators in Qian County.
At the thought of this, Jiang Chengxuan immediately said to Jiang Renyi and Liu Linglong,
“Renyi, Linglong, you’re doing very well. Continue to keep the situation under control.
I plan to go to the Jade Water Sword Pavilion personally to understand the exact situation.”
At this point, Jiang Chengxuan turned to Shen Ruyan.
“Wife, you’ll stay in the family this time to preside over the situation in case anything happens..
