Chapter 493 - 493 493 No Rescue Means No Rescue

Chapter 493: Chapter 493: No Rescue Means No Rescue Chapter 493: Chapter 493: No Rescue Means No Rescue Gan Haifeng and the senior members of the four great families arrived at the city gates, and upon hearing the excited cheers of the crowd, they were utterly convinced that someone truly had the ability to cure the poisoned.

When Gan Haifeng and Mo Zhengnan saw the people who had been treated, their expressions revealed shock.

Meanwhile, inside Blood Moon City, those infected cultivators who had learned that there was someone capable of curing the poison, were now desperately rushing to the city gates.

“He can actually save people!” Gan Haifeng exclaimed in shock, his expression frozen.

“What powerful devouring force! The Intestine-Breaking Soul-Devouring Powder has truly been devoured by him!” Mo Zhengnan was so astonished that his eyes bulged.

“Family Head, could it be that this young man stole the map?” An elder asked with a frown.

Mo Zhengnan shook his head slightly as he sized up Feng Wuchen, saying, “I don’t know.”

Having witnessed Feng Wuchen devour the Intestine-Breaking Soul-Devouring Powder to save people, they were now convinced without a doubt.

Gan Haifeng and others had arrived, and Feng Wuchen had already noticed them, but he did not even glance their way.

Feng Wuchen was saving people, so Gan Haifeng and the others had to keep quiet.

Just yesterday, Gan Haifeng had a falling out with Feng Wuchen, and now that Feng Wuchen was able to heal the poisoned people, it was uncertain what Gan Haifeng was feeling in his heart.

“Quickly go and bring out the Great Elder and the Great Commander,” Gan Haifeng ordered.

“Yes, City Lord!” The guard responded respectfully, immediately flying back.

“Go bring the young master to the city gate!” Mo Zhengnan also issued an order.

“Family Head, this…” The Mo family guard hesitated, seemingly worried about something.

“Don’t you hurry up!” Mo Zhengnan scolded sharply, giving the guard a fierce glare that sent him running back in fear.

The other Family Heads also sent people back to bring the poisoned clan members over.

“Thank you, Heavenly God, for the grace of saving our lives!” one cultivator after another who had been treated bowed and thanked Feng Wuchen.

After half an hour, already several hundred people were saved.

Though it was only half an hour, the toll on Feng Wuchen’s True Yuan was immense.

Fortunately, Feng Wuchen had the elixirs to restore True Yuan, so he didn’t have to worry about that. The concern was that there were still thousands of poisoned people.

To save time, instead of devouring the poison one by one, he now devoured two at a time, which significantly sped up the process.

After two hours, the Intestine-Breaking Soul-Devouring Powder’s deadly poison in the bodies of cultivators from the three quarantine zones had all been devoured clean by Feng Wuchen.

Even with the support of elixirs, Feng Wuchen felt physically and mentally exhausted at this point.

The cultivators from the three quarantine zones were immensely grateful, thanking him repeatedly.

Seeing Feng Wuchen’s strenuous effort, some young boys and girls alternated between bringing him tea and food, their actions heartwarming.

“Heavenly God, if you are tired you can rest, we can still endure,” a middle-aged man said with emotion, unable to bear it.

“Yes, Heavenly God, please rest for a while,” the crowd urged collectively, unable to watch Feng Wuchen continue in such a fatigued state.

All the cultivators present were moved by Feng Wuchen’s selfless spirit.

“It’s alright,” Feng Wuchen replied with a gentle smile, feeling a warm current in his heart.

Without taking any rest, Feng Wuchen continued to treat the poisoned cultivators.

Gan Haifeng and others watched quietly, not disturbing him.

At this time, the poisoned individuals from the main city and the four major families had also been brought over and were waiting at the city gate, likewise confined in the huge iron cages of the quarantine zones.

“Is it really him?” Mo Wuxie’s expression drastically changed at the sight of the rescuer being Feng Wuchen.

Currently, Mo Wuxie resembled a bloody man, swollen marks all over his body and scratch marks everywhere, even his face was likewise ghastly to behold, a far cry from the former young master of the Mo family.

Recalling yesterday’s haughty refusal of Feng Wuchen, Mo Wuxie’s heart sunk to the bottom of the sea.

Besides Mo Wuxie, the main city’s great elder and the Great Commander felt the same way, having offended Feng Wuchen, they were still uncertain if he would save them.

“Dad, it was I who refused him yesterday,” Mo Wuxie spoke, enduring the intense itch all over his body.

Mo Zhengnan’s face looked extremely ugly as he said, “The Intestine-Breaking Soul-Devouring Powder is no small affliction, even if you refused him, he must save you; otherwise, the poison will keep spreading!”

Hearing this, Mo Wuxie’s heart was somewhat at ease.

What Mo Zhengnan said wasn’t without reason, if Feng Wuchen didn’t save Mo Wuxie, the Intestine-Breaking Soul-Devouring Powder would still spread, and those who were saved would be reinfected.

As time flashed by, an hour passed, and all cultivators except those from the main city and the four great families had been cured by Feng Wuchen, the deadly poison of Intestine-Breaking Soul-Devouring Powder completely devoured from their bodies.

But at this moment, Feng Wuchen’s complexion was pale. Although supported by elixirs, the fatigue of both body and mind could not be concealed, eliciting sympathy from everyone watching.

However, with Feng Wuchen’s robust constitution, he only needed to rest for a little over ten minutes to recover.

“Brother Feng, are you feeling better?” Ling Xiaoxiao asked softly.

Feng Wuchen nodded, stood up and said with a smile, “I have already recovered.”

Seeing Feng Wuchen standing up, excitement surged within the quarantined area’s cages.

“Heavenly God, save us please!”

“Heavenly God! Quick, save me!”

Inside the cages, the members of the four great families cried out one after another, frantic with urgency.

“I humbly ask the young hero to save the people of Blood Moon City,” Gan Haifeng pleaded with his fists clasped.

“I humbly ask the young hero to save the lives of my family members,” each Family Head pleaded in turn, their attitudes polite and humble.

At this moment, everyone’s gaze turned towards Feng Wuchen, and silence fell over the city gate.

The events at the city gate yesterday were known by many present, and many had witnessed them.

Feng Wuchen’s gaze swept over Gan Haifeng as well as the upper echelons of the four great families, without any hint of change in his expression.

“I refuse to save the people of the main city, and I do not treat anyone from the Mo family. Find someone else more capable for that. I will save the other three great families,” Feng Wuchen stated indifferently.

At those words, Gan Haifeng and Mo Zhengnan’s faces distorted greatly.

Feng Wuchen had actually refused to attend to the people from the main city and the Mo family.

“Heavenly God, save me please! Heavenly God, save me please!” the people from the main city and the Mo family shouted in panic, all of them kneeling and kowtowing.

While members of the other three great families cheered excitedly, secretly relieved they hadn’t offended this godlike young man.

“If you do not save them, even if you cured the others, the poison will still contaminate them,” Mo Zhengnan said with a frown, his face looking extremely awful.

Gan Haifeng followed with, “Family Head Mo is right. With such a powerful Devouring Martial Soul, even if you cure them now, they will sooner or later be reinfected.”

“When I say I will not save, I mean it. If they don’t want to be infected again, they can always leave Blood Moon City,” Feng Wuchen replied coldly.

“Heavenly God, please give me one more chance, I know my mistake, I shouldn’t have refused you, please save me, the Mo family will surely provide you with a detailed map!” Mo Wuxie finally couldn’t bear it anymore, kneeling and knocking his head on the ground, unable to endure the agony of the poison.

Feng Wuchen said coldly, “Just give up on that hope, I will not save anyone from the Mo family!”
