As soon as they stood on the city wall, they heard a general below shout, "Traitors, why don't you open the city gates and let us in? Surrender now and we might consider leaving you with a whole corpse, otherwise, once we break through the city, we will slaughter your entire clan."

"What should we do? What are we going to do?"

"It's over, it's really over."

The underlings only know how to talk bad news. Just a year ago, Boss Cao could lead them to beat Duke so badly that they had to run away with their tails between their legs. In just one year, they have fallen to the point where they can surrender directly.

They are truly a mob, unlikely to amount to anything.

"At worst, we'll fight them. Duke is brutal by nature. If we let them into the city, the people will only die even more miserably. We might as well take a gamble." The youngest boy stared intently at the army below the city wall, his face full of determination.

"You brat, what are you yelling about? Don't get us into trouble..." another leader shouted, glancing anxiously at Ye Moxun and Song Tantan, afraid they might act impulsively and fight to the death with their men.

"Shut up, you have no right to speak." Ye Moxun glared at the man, then took out a pill and a small cauldron from his bag, and lit the pill in the cauldron.

Before long, the entire city was filled with a faint medicinal fragrance. Although it smelled of medicine, the fragrance was unpleasant to smell, causing a tightness and pain in the chest, as if one was suffocating, and even an urge to vomit.

Therefore, only Song Tantan and Ye Moxun, who had taken the antidote, were unaffected. Everyone else was affected. Duke's army, which had been extremely arrogant just moments before, was now ashen-faced and lifeless.

"Once the Gu poison is unleashed, countless poisonous creatures in the vicinity will be summoned by me and rush to its aid." Ye Moxun's words, spoken lightly, seemed to come from hell.
