“We can head that way and climb over. On the other side, there is a small alley,” Wan Ziyang pointed to the southern wall and said. If they left that way, they would be able to avoid the crowd that was putting out the fire.
“Let’s go,” Ye Jiuge said.
She carried Ye Ruyi on her back and climbed out first. Pulling Bai Songling along with him, Wan Ziyang followed her and scaled the wall. All of them managed to escape from West Main Street and return to the residence.
Immediately after he entered the house, Wan Ziyang asked Bai Songling, “How did the guards die?”
“They were poisoned,” Bai Songling said, his handsome face dignified.
This Su Junqing had a malicious mind and had given the guards a poison called Collective Punishment. Usually, this poison had no effect, but once an additional ingredient was added, anyone who had been poisoned would die.
“Be careful, Su Junqing is very skilled at poisoning. His Drunken Cloud Pavilion has both September Fragrance and November Cream,” Ye Jiuge said.
Regardless of his possession of Mental Manipulation, the variety of strange poisons proved that Su Junqing had an unusual relationship with black magic practitioners. There had to be a more extensive network behind him.
“Both September Fragrance and November Cream are forbidden; where could he have gotten them?” Bai Songling’s frown deepened.
