A single call of 'Sword come' brought a significant change to the atmosphere within the entire factory.

Soul-Devouring Sword.

The sword's howl resounds through the heavens.

The blade points at the two poisons.

Sharp edge exposed!

When Yin Bridge and Yang Path saw this sword, their pupils contracted, not expecting Liu Zixuan to have such a unique weapon.

Yin Bridge whispered, "Be careful, close combat is not where we can match him, try using poison, don't be stingy!"

"Got it!" Yang Path nodded quickly and took out several types of poison, throwing them towards Liu Zixuan.

Liu Zixuan sneered when he saw this, "Such petty tricks! Dare to play with poison in front of me!"

With a flick of the long sword in his hand, he scattered the poison mist with swift movements, and the sword absorbed the poison particles.

It's important to note that swords and knives can only slash at solid objects, but Liu Zixuan's sword could disperse powdery poisons.

This scene left Yin Bridge and Yang Path utterly shocked, yelling in unison, "Careful, it's catalyzed by Inner Strength!"

"Your poison, returned to you!"

Liu Zixuan rose into the air, waved the sword, and re-emitted the originally absorbed poison.

Immediately forming a poison encirclement around Yin Bridge and Yang Path.

"This poison is even more refined than when we released it; Liu Zixuan must have tampered with it inside, retreat!"

Feeling the surrounding poison, Yin Bridge immediately made a decision.

Seeing the two trying to flee, Liu Zixuan flashed to the doorway, blocking them.

"Think you can leave? Not so easy!"

"Liu Zixuan, let us go, and I'll leave you the antidote for rosemary poison. Otherwise, even if you kill us, the villagers will still perish with us!" Yin Bridge stepped forward and said.

Liu Zixuan frowned slightly; if given time, it would be easy to neutralize the poison, but he couldn't wait any longer.

The fight just now and the time prior have delayed too much, and the poison has likely already acted in the villagers' bodies. If he waited to make an antidote, they would die.

In a cold voice, he said, "Leave the antidote and I'll let you go!"

"We have to leave one person first, or after giving you the antidote, what if you don't let us leave?" Yin Bridge reckoned their skill was inferior to Liu Zixuan's.

And the poison they prided themselves on proved ineffective against Liu Zixuan. Now… they had to find a way to escape.

"Let the girl leave." Liu Zixuan coldly ordered.

Hearing this, Yin Bridge patted Yang Path's shoulder, "You leave first, wait for me outside, your medical skill is better than mine; even if I get hurt by Liu Zixuan, you can treat me promptly."

"Alright, I'll wait for you at the car. This time, we've accepted the loss; we'll plan for the future once we're outside!" Without hesitation, Yang Path headed outside.

Now only Yin Bridge and Liu Zixuan remained here.

"The antidote?"

Yin Bridge took out a transparent bottle from his pocket, glanced at the door, and threw it towards Liu Zixuan.

Then he himself ran frantically towards the outside.

Liu Zixuan flashed forward to catch the bottle, then a Silver Needle shot forward.

Thud!

The Silver Needle pierced through the running Yin Bridge's shoulder, a line of blood emerged.

Liu Zixuan didn't chase further, the needle just now was enough to leave Yin Bridge without the energy to continue poisoning for the time being.

He took out the medicine inside, examined it to confirm it was the antidote, and administered it to the villagers.

After a while, Liu Ruyan came over, wiping sweat from her forehead, "How's it going?"

"The poison's temporarily neutralized." Liu Zixuan watched the villagers' faces recover, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is it really the He Family?"

"That's right."

Liu Zixuan nodded, "Looks like the He Family really spared no expense to deal with me; knowing they can't fight me themselves, they went as far as to hire the two proud disciples of the Demon Sound Ghost Doctor, Yin Bridge and Yang Path!"

"These two are rumored to have the reputation of killing invisibly in Star Sea, countless people hate them, yet can't deal with them, experts in poison… seems like we'll have to change tactics against the He Family."

Seeing Liu Zixuan's serious look, Liu Ruyan frowned, "Lingxiu Village has just started to improve, but… will it end up being taken advantage of?"

"No, as long as I'm here, no one will take advantage of Lingxiu Village!"

"What's happening to me?"

"Feels like a dream."

"Handsome Zixuan? Beautiful Village Head?"

At this time, the previously poisoned villagers woke up, rubbing their foreheads and standing up from the ground, looking puzzled, unaware of what happened.

Liu Ruyan briefly explained to them and let them go back to rest.

The factory also had to temporarily halt operations.

Beside Liu Zixuan, Huang Youcai clenched his fist and cursed, "The He Family is despicable, sending those scoundrels from Queqi Village didn't work, now bringing in poison experts. Lingxiu Village is full of ordinary folks, aren't they afraid of divine retribution!"

"These merchants always do whatever it takes to achieve their goals!"

Liu Zixuan coldly sneered, mockingly said, "These days, is this happening less? To develop the land they fancy, how many innocent people have lost their most precious things, even lives."

"I've realized, whether in ancient times or modern, it's always the civilians who suffer, if good things happen, unrelated to the civilians, all benefits go to those capitalists, if bad things happen, the capitalists run away, and the unlucky ones remain the civilians!"

Huang Youcai is also a businessman, but he is a conscientious one, knowing what should and shouldn't be done.

He understands the term 'merchant' best and equally has the capital to criticize the He Family's despicable means.

Seeing him like an angry youth, Liu Zixuan grinned, "Alright, whether capitalists or civilians, the problem will be resolved after all. The He Family didn't gain anything from this; I'm afraid they'll use other means next. Be careful."

Separating from Huang Youcai and them, Liu Zixuan and Liu Ruyan returned to the clinic.

Just entering, Bai Jingjing ran over, happily saying, "I told you, if I step in, the problem can be solved; the He Family already said they don't intend to conflict with you, and now they're sending people over to talk properly. They'll compensate you for your losses first!"

"Talk properly?" Liu Zixuan sarcastically laughed, "Did they blush when they said that?"

"What's that supposed to mean? Isn't talking properly better? Why do you have to fight?" Bai Jingjing retorted displeased.

Liu Zixuan shrugged, speaking meaningfully, "In broad daylight, in your aunt's eyes, you might be dispensable too."

"Hey, what do you mean?" Bai Jingjing was increasingly confused.

Liu Ruyan sighed, "It was the people sent by the He Family who poisoned…"
