Chapter 1345: Chapter 1340: Chen Ruobai’s Madness
Beyond the Ruo Shui Pass, mournful cries spread across the fields, and relentless screams pierced the air. The stench of blood lingered, a familiar scene on any battlefield; yet this sight weighed heavily on the heart of every person at the Ruo Shui Pass.
Especially when they saw the mangled bodies at the city gate, all dressed in plain clothes. Lin Sisi looked at their corpses with blood-shot eyes, cursing furiously, “Damn that Chen Ruobai, forcing defenseless commoners onto the battlefield, is she even human!”
“She’s not!”
Su Yingxue crouched down to examine the bodies of the commoners, her gaze filled with hatred, “They were all poisoned. Even if they had not come to fight, they would not have survived for long. This poison made them unnaturally strong, bursting with extraordinary strength, but it also… took their lives swiftly.”
Thousands of lives were thus lost at the gates of Ruo Shui Pass.
The walls of Ruo Shui Pass were breached, but their lives were lost in vain.
As the guardians of Ruo Shui Pass, they felt like executioners, slaughtering innocent citizens.
With their hands stained by the blood of the commoners, the Ye father and son, Lin Sisi, all had a bitter taste in their hearts, as did their main generals and soldiers. Morale was low every day, to the point where one soldier even asked Lin Sisi, “General… General, if we pursue the enemy, are we still going to be killing ordinary people?”
His hand holding the sword was trembling, the blood on the blade constantly reminding him.
What they faced were not mighty opponents, nor ferocious armies, but… unarmed commoners!
He remembered the one he had just killed, dressed in an elegant robe and hat, with a refined and gentle appearance, like a scholarly teacher.
And now… died by his hand?
He couldn’t believe it. How heartbroken the family of this teacher would be if they found out.
Lin Sisi made a decision without authorization, “Stop the pursuit. I will take the punishment and… petition the emperor!”
“General Lin, there are rules to sending troops. If we do not pursue, I fear it might go against military orders!” Ye Qingru earnestly advised Lin Sisi to still follow military commands.
“But if we continue the pursuit, what do we do if we encounter commoners who have been poisoned?” Lin Sisi gripped her sword tightly, her teeth clenched in anger.
“But…”
“No need to pursue.”
At this moment of difficulty, a man’s stable and forceful voice arrived.
“Lin Sisi, clean up the battlefield, Ye Qingru, withdraw your troops and conduct drills throughout the night,” Chu Yihan ordered from atop the city walls, with a cold voice.

Everyone knelt down, “Your commands will be obeyed!”
Su Yingxue and Saint Ruan stayed behind with Lin Sisi to clean up the battlefield. Lin Sisi also had to find people to repair the city wall. It was certain there would be no rest that night, while Su Yingxue and Saint Ruan carried a corpse back to the medicine hut for detailed research.
After Saint Ruan opened up the corpse and extracted the poison, he discovered, “This woman is truly heartless and mad. What chaotic mixtures of poison, I have never used poison to harm people in such a way.”
Chen Ruobai actually spread this violent, incurable upon ingestion poison all over common people, forcing them to storm the city—deranged and ruthless!
Su Yingxue’s expression darkened. After conducting her investigation, she buried the corpse, but as she was burying it, she noticed unusual movements in the pile of corpses infected by the poison. She and Saint Ruan went to look and discovered that one of these poisoned bodies still had a pulse, not yet dead!
“I… I…”
His appearance had become unrecognizable, yet he could still make sounds.
Saint Ruan’s eyes widened in shock, “Damn! He’s still not dead?”
“Saint Ruan, quickly dig him out, he’s a gu created by Chen Ruobai using a living person! He’s still not dead!” Su Yingxue was greatly invigorated and immediately gave Saint Ruan gloves and a mask, and together they began to excavate the undying gu corpse.
Saint Ruan truly admired Su Yingxue’s courage. Not only was the gu corpse covered in gu poison, but its combat strength was also formidable—it could harm them at any moment, yet she dared to dig it out for research.
Su Yingxue and Saint Ruan made strenuous efforts without allowing others, who were ignorant of medicine, to intervene.
After bringing the gu corpse to the medicine hut, Su Yingxue helped him and then began to check his pulse. She was amazed to discover, “He has no pulse, yet there is still breath in him, and he can even speak.”
“A living dead?” Saint Ruan scratched his head, extremely astonished.
A person with no pulse was surely dead, but this one could still breathe and speak…
It was because he had mingled with Long Shuli that he had a high tolerance for such things. Any ordinary doctor would be scared to death by this, not knowing they’d think the King of the Underworld had possessed him!
“What do you want to do with him, you’re not thinking of… bringing him back to life, are you?” Saint Ruan felt his scalp tingle at the thought.
“Why not? Sister Rong Sheng is undercover by Chen Ruobai’s side. She said Chen Ruobai has started to use living people to create gu. If he manages to produce a living gu corpse that can be controlled at will and unleashes it on the battlefield, our soldiers will suffer even more. If we can research it thoroughly and devise countermeasures, we might be able to contend with Chen Ruobai!” Su Yingxue was now solely focused on how to save people and how to resist Chen Ruobai’s diabolical gu techniques.
Saint Ruan really didn’t want to do such terrifying things with her. He wanted to retire in peace!
But could he just watch Su Yingxue working alone?
“It seems I owed you mother and daughter in my past life!” Saint Ruan grumbled and busied himself with Su Yingxue by the gu corpse. They didn’t leave the place for a day and a night and miraculously, the gu corpse, which should have died the night before, slowly regained its heartbeat and pulse.
The flesh on his face was largely scraped off, revealing horrific white bones and tattered skin, with blood-red seams—extremely terrifying and creepy to look at.
Su Yingxue determined his blood type and found it matched her own, so she transfused her blood into him. Then his heartbeat and pulse recovered.
To be precise, the gu worms inside his body, nourished by the blood, brought him ‘back to life.’
Seeing the man revived, Su Yingxue let out a sigh of relief, “Saint Ruan, as long as he’s alive, those gu worms are too. Think about it, is there any way we can research how to kill the worms but also allow this person… to survive.”
Saint Ruan, supporting the pale-faced Su Yingxue, said, “That this man is alive is a miracle in itself. Killing the gu worms might be difficult. We can only see how long they will live within him. But from what I can see, these insects are uncontrolled by any gu mother and won’t survive long in his body unless they are constantly nourished by blood.”
Su Yingxue frowned slightly, her expression solemn.
They were still unable to solve the gu poison.
Exhausted, Su Yingxue was helped back by Saint Ruan to rest. Chu Yihan visited her once, kissed her cheek, then returned to the military camp.
For the past two days, all the soldiers practiced relentlessly without any rest.
Their training had never been this intense before, but none of them disobeyed the military order issued by Chu Yihan.
