Chapter: 5476

Old Zhang bowed respectfully: "Miss, the base camp of the Clear Stream Society was already a secret location, and given its massive size, strict security measures, and the presence of senior officials overseeing operations, what kind of person could quietly wipe out the entire base without being detected? This is too implausible..."

Lín Wánér's mind suddenly conjured up the image of Yè Chén, and she couldn't help but say: "I think I know who might be behind this."

"Ah, well," she said with some doubt, "but this kind of brutal and merciless method doesn't seem to be his style!"

Old Zhang pondered for a moment before asking, "Miss, could it be... that person you mentioned earlier who saved us, Mr. Yè Chén?"

Lín Wánér furrowed her brow, "I thought about the possibility when you said he was killed, but I couldn't imagine him being capable of such atrocities - thousands of people slaughtered! Moreover, I saw him in Jinling a few days ago."

Old Zhang asked her, "Miss, are you suggesting that someone other than Mr. Yè Chén is responsible for killing Old Zhang and destroying the Clear Stream Society's base?"

Lín Wánér spoke seriously, "This is just one possibility - there could be another explanation: that it's indeed Mr. Yè Chén who's behind this, but it wasn't him personally who killed Old Zhang."

Old Zhang asked in surprise, "Miss, isn't this slaughter of thousands of people not like his style at all?"

"Yes," Lín Wánér nodded firmly, "so I think the Prince is very likely lying!"

Old Zhang asked her, "Do you mean that this incident didn't happen at all?"

"No," Lín Wánér said confidently, "if it's been announced that Old Zhang has died, then he must have really died - such a major news wouldn't be fabricated to sow discord among the troops."

Having finished speaking, Lín Wánér shifted her tone: "However, I think those people at the base in Cyprus and the copper factory in Turkey may not necessarily be entirely slaughtered as the Prince claimed. Instead, I believe they've all been secretly recruited by Mr. Yè Chén."

Old Zhang looked puzzled and asked, "This... how is this possible? The soldiers of death and cavalry guards, although they are the most detestable to the Clear River Society, but they are also impossible to betray the Clear River Society. The toxin in their bodies cannot be removed by anyone, and if they were to betray the emperor, they, along with their families, would definitely die within a few days! Such a doomed thing, how could they do it?"

Lín Wánér suddenly got excited and exclaimed, "You're right! There's no antidote, and that's the core key for everyone not to dare to betray the Clear River Society... unless..."

As she said this, Lín Wánér spoke seriously: "Unless someone can remove the toxin of the Clear River Society!"

When she reached this point, Lín Wánér exclaimed with joy: "Yè Chén once told those cavalry guards who came to capture me that he had a way to neutralize the toxin in their bodies! Looks like he didn't lie!"

Old Zhang looked puzzled and asked: "Miss... the toxin of the Clear River Society has been passed down for hundreds of years and no one can remove it... That Yè Chén, is he really so powerful?"

Lín Wánér's emotions had calmed down, and she smiled and said: "Everything that seems difficult will eventually have a breakthrough. Just like humans never flew until the invention of airplanes, and even though people thought certain diseases were incurable for thousands of years, but once vaccines were developed, these viruses were successfully broken down and even completely eliminated!"

When she reached this point, Lín Wánér laughed: "Think about it from another angle, the toxin of the Clear River Society has been passed down for four hundred years without anyone being able to remove it. Four hundred years have passed, and it's finally time for someone to break it down!"

Lín Wánér paused slightly before continuing: "What's more important is that Yè Chén not only knows how to neutralize the toxin but can also neutralize it for thousands of people! This will definitely make that emperor nervous to the point where he cannot sleep at night!"

Old Zhang suddenly got excited and said with trembling excitement: "This is great... truly wonderful... if what you say is true, then the Clear River Society will be completely shattered soon... Don't mention anything else, those soldiers of death and cavalry guards have been enslaved and controlled by the Clear River Society for generations. Once they have an antidote, they will definitely fight to the death against the Clear River Society! As long as this antidote can reach their hands, the root of the Clear River Society will be completely destroyed!"

"Yes!" Lín Wánér laughed: "The method that the Clear River Society uses to control the soldiers of death is like a double-edged sword that can kill one thousand enemies while also harming oneself. As long as no one can neutralize their toxin, these soldiers not only won't dare to act but also won't have the opportunity to act. Who wants to act will be stopped by the Clear River Society, and they just need to cut off their antidote supply to eliminate them without bloodshed!"

"It's exactly because of this that those soldiers of death, despite being controlled by them and having no choice but to obey, secretly harbor resentment in their hearts. Once they have the opportunity to eliminate the toxin from their bodies, the accumulated grudges of past generations will surely lead them to declare war on the Clear River Society first!"

"Consequently, whoever possesses the method to neutralize the toxin is like strangling the throat of the Clear River Society."

As she spoke, Lín Wánér sighed: "I guess the emperor also realizes this point and fears that if other soldiers of death are exposed, they will be thoroughly betrayed. That's why he has stopped all their movements!" JrNovels.com
