Not far away, Su Jingqi, Du Ze and the other disciples of the assessment all took note of the situation, of which the happiest one was Huangfu Zhazha.

He wanted Shang Zifeng's group to disappear before his eyes, but he didn't expect that just because of a single sentence from Yao Shuang, the brother would be willing to give up the opportunity to take the examination and enter the Yuxu Sect without fighting. How could he not be happy?

He was glad that the plague had arrived in time!

Therefore, Huangfu Zhazha raised his chin, and said to the people around him in a complacent manner: "Looks like, this place doesn't have anything to do with us, let's go."

With that, he left first.

Seeing that someone had left, the rest of the group, although sympathetic, did not want to stay and help them, so they followed.

After a while, only Su Jingqi and Du Ze were left standing in the same spot without moving.

Du Ze looked at the sky, then looked at Su Jingqi, and then carefully asked: "Young Master Su, it's getting late, should we hurry up and leave?"

Seeing that Su Jingqi did not reply, and still had that thoughtful look on his face, he repeated, "Young Master Su? It's time to go. "

With that, he heard Su Jingqi ask softly, "Tell me, should we stay behind to help Dongfang Li?"

Her voice was low, as if she was asking Du Ze, and also asking herself.

If Du Ze did not prick up his ears to listen, he would simply be unable to understand what was going on.

It had to be said that Su Jingqi's sudden question stunned Du Ze completely.

Stay behind to help Dongfang Li?

What a joke!

If Du Ze did not take this opportunity to stab Dongfang Li in the back, it would already be considered good. He still had to stay and help him treat the plague.

Putting aside the fact that the plague was not easy to treat, even if Dongfang Li could really cure the plague, he would not foolishly give up his examination to help his sworn enemy!

Now that the situation was good, and they were not required to mess around, Dongfang Li and Shang Zifeng would naturally give up, wouldn't that be great?

In short, no matter how hard he tried, he could not figure out the purpose of Su Jingqi's words.

Just as he was feeling suspicious, he heard Su Jingqi mumbling again, "That red-clothed girl …"

Seeing that Su Jingqi was muttering nonstop to himself, Du Ze could not hold it in anymore and blurted out: "Young Master Su, what are you worried about? What happened to the woman in red? "

Hearing that, Su Jingqi raised his head, "Nothing much, let's go!"

Although he said this, he felt as if there was a huge rock in his heart. He always felt that if he left like this, he would lose something.

However, seeing that so many people had left, he calmed himself down a little, and followed along with Du Ze to the location of the examination.

Before long, Shang Zifeng and the other three followed the Patriarch Jing into the village.

The moment they passed through the main road of the village, an unpleasant odor assaulted their noses. It was the sour smell of blood and vomiting.

It could be imagined just how terrible the air was. Shang Zifeng and Shang Ziyu immediately covered their noses, and didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

As for the Patriarch Jing and the rest, they used the handkerchief that they had prepared beforehand to cover their mouths and noses, preparing to take precautions.

Hong Shan didn't have much of a reaction as she directly activated her profound energy. In an instant, the orange colored profound energy enveloped her entire body, forming a visible membrane that wrapped around her.

Shang Zifeng and Shang Ziyu had already known that the red-clothed girl had cultivation experience from the start, so when they saw her release her profound energy, they did not feel surprised either.

How could they not want to possess the same unique skills as her? One day, they would be able to rely on their great sword skills and laugh proudly at the world.

Who knew that they would give up just like that before they had even stepped foot into the doorstep? If one were to say that Shang Zifeng and Shang Ziyu did not have a single trace of regret, that would be impossible.

Seeing that Yao Shuang's expression did not change even when facing such dirty air and did not take many precautions, Hong Shan could not help but remind him, "The air here is not very good, if you continue walking like this, aren't you afraid of being infected?"

Yao Shuang understood her intentions, and said indifferently: "I grew up in a medicine jar since I was young, although not completely immune to poisons, but still not easily infected by the plague."

In reality, if not because she was afraid of causing a stir in the Yuxu Sect and alerting Tian Ge who was in closed door cultivation, Yao Shuang really wanted to say that she was a Channel Opening Stage expert, so she was not afraid of this mere plague.

However, if these words were to come out, not to mention whether it would shock the heavens, even Hong Shan would not believe it.

Not only that, he might even treat her like a fool.

One could easily imagine the four people in the land of the Nine Prefectures with just his fingers.

If one were to sit according to their age, then only the female emperors of the Pixia Palace would be able to match the Yao Shuang who had changed her name.

It was also because of this that Hong Shan would never believe that this young lad in front of him was the Lord of the Pixia Palace of the Nine Prefectures who was so popular even at the moment of his death.

It was not only her, no one would believe that the exalted female emperor would pretend to be a fair-weather boy when he was free and come to the Yuxu Sect to be an outer disciple.

Isn't this the biggest joke in the world!

Of course, as long as Yao Shuang used Mystic Maiden Heaven Chilling Spell, even if she did not reveal her identity, Hong Shan would still be able to guess.

After all, within the silver profound energy, there was only the "Mystic Maiden Heaven Chilling Spell".

and "Returning to Heaven's Illusion"

He only had it, and it would only turn pure silver when he reached the seventh level.

Gui Yuan Heaven Illusion was a unique technique of the High Priest Dongfang Yu. However, ever since Dongfang Yu died at the Evil Killing Altar, the technique had disappeared along with him.

And so far, only the female empress of the Pixia Palace had been able to refine a Mystic Maiden Heaven Chilling Spell.

At the same time, this cultivation method was also a secret technique unique to the female emperor. Outsiders were completely unable to see through it.

Taking a step back, even if someone obtained this cultivation technique, they would still not be able to successfully cultivate it. It was only because it required a unique physique to control it.

And Yao Shuang, for the last ten thousand years, other than the profound maiden, was the only one who had an "ice spirit".

He who possessed a body was also the only one who had successfully refined the Mystic Maiden Heaven Chilling Spell.

Therefore, as long as the heroes of the realm saw a person with silver profound energy appear, it was obvious without a doubt that this person was the Pixia Palace's female emperor.

Thus, silver became the color of Yao Shuang's eyes.

Hong Shan didn't doubt Yao Shuang's words at all. After all, many genius doctors would soak a person in a medicine jar when they nurture a disciple, and only then would they be able to ensure that when they grow up, they wouldn't be infected by patients. This was also the primary method for a doctor to protect himself.

The desolation of the village made everyone feel an indescribable pressure in their hearts.

Every step they took, there was paper money floating in the wind, slapping lightly on their foreheads.

The cold wind dispersed, and the miserable wails of pain could be heard everywhere.

Yao Shuang walked and watched as her eyebrows gradually knitted. She did not expect that the Jingjia Village's plague would have reached such a state.

If he did not happen to pass by here today, even if the people of Jingjia Village could avoid the Heiming Village's attacks, from the looks of it, they would not be able to hold on for more than a few days.

After walking for half an incense worth of time, Patriarch Jing finally led Yao Shuang and her group into a courtyard.

Dozens of stretchers were arranged in a row at the entrance of the courtyard, so that not even a drop of water could trickle through.

Lying on the stretcher were old and young, old as much as seventy or eighty years old, young as five or six years old.

Their complexions turned green, and their hair almost fell out. They were on the verge of death, and from time to time, white foam would flow out from the corners of their mouths. There was even foul blood coming out from their mouths.

All in all, the ground was stained with foam and blood.

The only thing that could tell that they were still alive was their throbbing throats.

Shang Zifeng and Shang Ziyu had never seen such a shocking scene before.

Even Hong Shan and Yao Shuang had to cover their mouths at the same time to suppress the urge to vomit to barely stabilize their bodies.

Without noticing Yao Shuang and the other three's reaction, Patriarch Jing's attention was completely focused on those old and young people. The moment he saw them, the tears in his eyes unceasingly flowed out, and his voice trembled as he said, "These people are my close friends. And the youngest child on the far left is this old man's grandson. This old man's son, his daughter-in-law, who was also his parents, had passed away the day before yesterday. This child originally wasn't infected by an epidemic disease, but after he found out that his parents were in danger, he insisted on going to visit, ignoring me. As a result, when his father breathed his last, he accidentally spat the last mouthful of blood on his face. This child was still so young and had many different appearances, but he didn't expect that he would be in such great trouble. This old man has always believed in ancient buddhas, and he had never committed any sins before. However, the heavens were unfair. The plague rampaged through the Jingjia Village, taking away the lives of my son and daughter-in-law, causing this old man's white hair to give away the black-haired man and taking away the lives of more than a hundred men, women and children of the Jingjia Village. And now, it is even going to take away the lives of my grandson … "

While talking, tears streamed down Patriarch Jing's face and he sobbed silently.
