Chapter 1727: Chapter 1726: Qingye’s Follow-up Move

"I have no objection to you using the poisonous worms against Daqi, but using me as a pawn—now that, I do have an issue with." Bei Yun casually threw the powder in his hand onto the ground, then pulled a handkerchief out of his chest pocket to wipe his hands.

At these words, Qingye’s expression stiffened for a moment, but then he quickly laughed it off, saying, "Divine Doctor Bei, I’m afraid I don’t quite understand what you’re saying."

"I’ve already discovered these worms, Prince Qingye. Are you still going to pretend you don’t know anything?" Bei Yun asked, "Do you truly think I’m a fool?"

Hearing these words, the forced smile on Qingye’s face gradually faded. He looked at Bei Yun with a sincere expression and said, "There is no one in this world bold enough to consider the Divine Doctor Bei a fool. The only reason I concealed this from you was because I was worried you might grow soft-hearted."

"Soft-hearted?" Bei Yun let out a faint chuckle, as if he’d just heard the most absurd joke. He gazed up at the azure sky with a look of deep reflection and sighed, "I always thought I was a heartless beast, yet to my surprise, I’ve encountered someone even more depraved than a swine or dog."

"You jest, Divine Doctor Bei. Those who are not of our kind cannot share our heart. To win this war, employing harsher methods is of no consequence."

Bei Yun shook his head at this, "But your methods are overly ruthless. Even I find them hard to stomach."

"Which is precisely why I had to hide this from you, Divine Doctor Bei. Please forgive me," Qingye said, his face even more earnest now.

Bei Lingsu, who had been standing to the side watching these two converse in riddles, finally couldn’t hold back. She stomped her foot and demanded, "What on earth are you two talking about?!"

Bei Yun turned to her with a sigh and explained, "Earlier, I told you to bury those dozens of carts of gold and silver underground. In a month, the poison here would have naturally dissipated. But Prince Qingye secretly released the poisonous worms to devour the toxins. Then, the poison merged with the worms, mutating into a new kind of toxin."

"I have no idea how to counteract this new poison. However, the soil beneath our feet has already been contaminated, including the water sources underground. Aunt Lingsu, I fear people in Daqi’s camp may already be poisoned by now."

As he spoke, Bei Yun turned to Qingye. "Actually, you have another move planned, don’t you?"

Though he framed this as a question, his tone was unflinchingly certain. Hearing this, Qingye couldn’t help but laugh, the pride in his expression unmistakable. "Indeed. Simply contaminating the water supply is nothing. Next, I’ll release more poisonous worms to kill every living thing in this region."

"I intend to slaughter every living being in Daqi’s Yunning Prefecture as well. I’ll deliver a small lesson to Daqi. They’ve always regarded my Yuchi as barbarians, haven’t they? I’ll let Yang Wenxiao see just how much pain these so-called ’barbarians’ can inflict when they take action."

At these words, everyone present—except for Bei Yun—had their faces drain of color.

Bei Yun’s expression remained unchanged. He merely raised a brow and asked with curiosity, "Your Yuchi? Is this plan solely orchestrated by Yuchi, with nothing to do with Longshi or Taian?"

"Hmph. Those two nations are already in Yuchi’s pocket. Everyone in this region, aside from the hundred thousand people of my Yuchi, must die!" As Qingye spoke, a jade flute, about the length of a finger, appeared in his hand. He brought the flute to his lips and blew gently. An eerie sound filled the air, and suddenly a buzzing noise came from the camps of all Three Kingdoms.

With the strange sound rising, a massive black swarm appeared above the camps of the Three Kingdoms.

The black swarm was about ten square meters in size, composed of countless small worms and one monstrously grotesque larger worm.

When Bei Yun caught sight of this abomination, his expression shifted drastically. "Your Highness of Wei, quickly! Use explosives to wipe out this vile creature!"
