Yun Ran briefly explained to the secret guards that the power of this illness was very likely to spread through contact.
She told everyone to be careful.
At the General’s Residence, Bai Ze was dealing with official business in the study when he heard a commotion outside. He frowned and called the guard guarding the door over to ask about the situation.
The guard had an expression of shock on his face as he panted and replied, “It’s in the courtyard ahead. A few demon beasts ran in from somewhere and bit anyone they saw. Several servants and maidservants in the residence were bitten.’
Bai Ze’s first reaction was to think of Huo Chanyi.
“The front yard?”
Huo Chanyi’s courtyard was right in front of him.
Without any hesitation, Bai Ze rushed to Huo Chanyi’s courtyard.
Naturally, Huo Chanyi had also heard the commotion outside and the cries for help. She was a physician, so it was impossible for her to pretend that she hadn’t heard anything.
Therefore, she followed the sound and ran out.
She wanted to see what had happened.
She saw a demon beast that looked like a wild wolf pouncing on a maidservant and biting her neck with its sharp fangs that emitted a cold light.
Instantly, blood spurted out.
Huo Chanyi did not think too much about it. She took out the longsword from her storage ring and rushed over to save her.
Although she was raised in the Myriad Poison Valley and did not know much about the world, the skills she had learned from a young age to hunt demon beasts made her tougher that those delicate young ladies in the Imperial City.
Her father once said that they often went to the forest to pick herbs and would definitely encounter all kinds of dangers. It was common for them to encounter demon beasts, so they had always been training her to hunt demon beasts.
Huo Chanyi swung her sword and accurately stabbed the beast in the head. Then, she kicked it away.
However, it was too late. The maid on the ground had already tilted her neck and widened her eyes. She was dead.
When Bai Ze arrived, Huo Chanyi was slashing at the second beast with her sword.
The little girl bravely stood in front of a few servants and maidservants. Facing the demon beast that was larger than her, she had no intention of retreating.
The demonic beast pounced on her like a madman.
“Little Chanyi!’
When Bai Ze saw this scene, his heart tightened. He punched the demon beast’s head with his bare hands, causing its head to sink into the ground.
“General Bai Ze!”
Bai Ze held her waist and brought her to a relatively safe place.
“Stay here obediently and don’t move forward. Be careful not to get hurt.”
Huo Chanyi was carried high up on a rockery. As she stood there, looking at the situation below, she felt that something was wrong.
She frowned and shouted at Bai Ze at the top of her voice, “General Bai Ze, those who are bitten by these demon beasts will go crazy, and bite others. Therefore, we have to control these demon beasts and people and not let them run out of the General’s Mansion.’
Outside the General’s Residence was a bustling street. At this time, there were many people going about their daily lives.
Once someone got bitten, the situation would probably become very bad.
When Bai Ze heard her shout, he immediately gave an order to the guards in the residence to control everyone in the residence.
The berserk demon beasts were easy to deal with, but the affected people were all from the residence, and they were all alive. Bai Ze could not be ruthless, so he could only control them and tie them up..
