Douluo: Yun Ming in the Spirit Hall Era

Chapter 57 Yunming and Yali

Upon hearing the girl's words, Yun Ming temporarily set aside his speculation about her identity and returned to the current situation, speaking coldly.

"Yes! A man-made plague!"

"What a huge investment!!!"

Oscar was momentarily stunned when he heard Yun Ming say that the plague was man-made, and asked in confusion.

"Was this plague man-made? How can you tell?"

Upon hearing Oscar's question, the girl spoke up to explain.

"Because of the plague, not a single word reached outside the city for half a month."

Yunming added in detail.

"As an important economic and trade city of the Kingdom of Silves, Saga City should have already spread the news of the plague and its outbreak, given the normal flow of people and the fact that the city was not locked down in the first three days of the plague outbreak."

"But the reality is, there's absolutely no movement outside. Yesterday we passed through the nearest town to Saga City, and there was no outbreak of plague there. The people there showed no signs of panic or urgency about being near the source of the plague. Everything about the plague is confined to Saga City; it's eerily calm!"

"There are two possibilities that there has been no outbreak or news of plague in other parts of the city. One is that what they have is not plague at all, but just a common cold, and the people in the city did not die from plague, but from other causes; the other is..."

"Those people who went to Saga City three days ago have all been dealt with!"

"Therefore, someone must be orchestrating this whole thing!!!"

Yun Ming didn't go into details about how he handled it, but the others present understood his meaning.

Hearing the girl and Yun Ming's explanation, Oscar felt a chill run down his spine. Recalling the other information the man in the felt hat had given him, Oscar screamed.

"Could the mastermind behind this be Ye Chuan, the city lord of Saga City?!"

"But how could such an anomaly in such a large city be kept secret?"

The girl answered Oscar's question and shared her speculation.

"It's impossible to keep it a secret forever, but it's possible for now."

"The outside world is unaware of the situation inside Saga City. The people inside are trapped by the city lord's lockdown order and his series of policies to combat the plague, and they are not allowed to leave their homes. As long as the mastermind behind the scenes has stockpiled enough supplies in the city, and there is no shortage of supplies, and the number of deaths in the city is kept below a certain threshold, and finally, with Saga City only allowing entry and no exit, the subsequent entry of people can be controlled by force, and the truth can be kept secret for the time being."

"However, judging from the fact that these civilians were able to escape successfully, twelve days was the limit of the cover-up, and the city's garrison began to waver."

There were more than twenty people who escaped, no more and no less. Among them, there was only one Soul Master and a few trained fighters with traces of military tactics. Most of them could not fight. It is highly likely that they escaped by having connections with the city's garrison or were directly part of the garrison. That is how they managed to escape the city.

"Furthermore, judging from the fact that the Great Soul Master with the Horse-Slaying Saber repeatedly tried to prevent the news from leaking out, and considering the ample amount of supplies enough to consume the entire city, the mastermind behind this has immense power in Saga City, and is definitely connected to the Saga City Lord's Mansion. In the worst-case scenario, the mastermind might even be City Lord Ye Chuan himself, but we can't be sure right now!"

After hearing the girl's explanation, Oscar glanced at the city of Saga not far away and felt a sense of danger.

While listening to the girl explain things to Oscar, Yun Ming was also multitasking, checking the health of the black-armored soldiers and fleeing civilians to see if there were any plague samples.

After the girl finished explaining things to Oscar, she ran to Yun Ming's side without disturbing him. She just watched silently, hoping to see if he could find any other information and also to get a closer look at what he looked like when he was a child.

As for why the girl only watched and didn't help, it's because she didn't actually know much about medicine. She saved people by relying on her powerful martial spirit ability, and she didn't really need medicine or anything like that.

For the next half hour, Yun Ming searched for medical records, the girl stared at Yun Ming, and the other three silently endured the public display of affection. Yang Wutian was different from Yang Wudi; he wasn't particularly interested in medicine. If you asked him how to kill or torture someone to make them suffer more, he would know a thing or two. But asking Yang Wutian to save someone was out of the question.

Half an hour later, Yun Ming had checked almost everyone, but found nothing. It was possible that none of them were infected, since they wouldn't have carried an infection source while escaping; or it was possible that when the girl treated them earlier, she had also cured them of the plague. In Yun Ming's memory, the Prayer Angel's "Light of All Beings" soul skill had the ability to cure some plague diseases.

After Yun Ming finished his examination, the girl asked softly.

"So, did you learn anything?"

Yun Ming looked at the eager girl and shook his head.

The girl was not disappointed. After thinking for a moment, she spoke softly.

"Old An, let's go into town!"

Old Master An didn't care. With his strength, he could withstand whatever changes occurred in Saga City.

After greeting Elder An, the young girl reluctantly bid farewell to Yun Ming.

"Although I don't know the extent of the conspiracy within this city, I'm going to try and save as many innocent people as possible. I'll leave the rest of the residents to you. Goodbye..."

"my sweetheart!"

Before she could finish speaking, the girl turned around and walked towards Saga City, carrying the regret of meeting but having to part.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

As Yunming watched the girl who knew there was a big problem in the city but still went into the city to save people without hesitation, new memory fragments began to resurface in his mind.

It's still about that woman's memories. Although her situation was different from the girl's, they both chose the path of risking their own lives to save all living beings.

Watching the girl's departing figure, Yun Ming suddenly realized that he was starting to like her. Unlike his earlier fleeting infatuation, it wasn't because of her beautiful face or slender figure, but because of her pure and kind heart.

Watching the girl slowly walk away, Yun Ming spoke calmly, though his voice seemed a little louder than usual, and there was a hint of barely perceptible tension in it.

Let's go together!

"I said I would get justice for them!"

While the latter statement was indeed Yun Ming's true thought, only Yun Ming himself knew whether it had any other meaning. In Oscar's opinion, it sounded like Yun Ming was making excuses for his "following" behavior.

Hearing that Yun Ming was going to risk everything for love, Yang Wutian felt a mix of emotions. His child had grown up so fast! But entering Saga City was nothing to Yang Wutian; he wasn't afraid at all. Although such a large city certainly had Soul Saint-level Soul Masters, what did Yang Wutian have to fear? Even if they outnumbered him, wasn't there still an archery expert with him?

Upon hearing Yun Ming's words, the girl turned around and saw Yun Ming, whose expression was calm except for his slightly red ears. Her eyes crinkled into crescent moons as she smiled, a gentle smile on her face. Even though he had lost his memories of their past life, he still chose to walk alongside her.

The girl responded softly.

"Okay, let's go together!"

After saying that, the girl remembered that they hadn't officially met yet, so she jogged over to Yun Ming, stood in front of him, extended her hand, and introduced herself.

"Let's get to know each other formally!"

"Hello, I'm Ya-li!"

Yun Ming looked at Ya Li in front of him, reached out and gently held her soft hand, and said.

"Hello, I'm Yun Ming!"
