Genius Among Geniuses!

An uproar erupted in the camp as the rebel leaders emerged from their tents, weapons in hand, and surrounded Ye Jing.

Among them were soldiers filled with rage and those with faces full of doubt; complex emotions flickered in each of their eyes.

"Ye Jing? You're the man who plunged our two nations into war?" A burly general glared at Ye Jing, his voice filled with anger and resentment.

Ye Jing remained unfazed, looking directly into the other's eyes, and slowly said, "That's right, it is I. But I am here today not to continue the war, but to end it. I know you harbor hatred and resentment, but war only brings more pain and destruction. Can we sit down and talk about how to avoid further casualties and find a peaceful solution together?"

The general sneered, brandishing his longsword and pointing it directly at Ye Jing: "Peace? How can we trust someone who started a war? Today, if you can defeat all of us, perhaps we can talk about peace; otherwise, you will pay the price for your actions!"

Ye Jing sighed softly; he understood.

It is not easy to persuade these people who are filled with hatred and are in rebellion.

But she also knew that she had to demonstrate sufficient strength to earn their respect and trust.

"Alright, I accept your challenge." Before Ye Jing finished speaking, his figure rushed out like lightning, instantly appearing in front of the general. He struck out with a palm, bringing up a gust of wind that forced the general to retreat repeatedly.

Upon seeing this, the rebel soldiers roared and charged forward, their various weapons weaving into a dense net in an attempt to trap Ye Jing within it.

However, Ye Jing's Movement Method were like a dragon playing in the water, easily dodging every attack while counterattacking with astonishing speed and power. Each strike accurately hit the opponent's vital points, yet he skillfully controlled the force to avoid causing fatal damage.

The battle gradually intensified, with Ye Jing weaving through the crowd, each strike resulting in the fall of an enemy.

But she did not forget her original intention, and always remained calm and restrained, proving her sincerity and determination with her actions.

"Stop!"

Just then, a deep and powerful voice suddenly rang out, interrupting the fierce battle.

The true leader of the resistance, an elderly wise man, slowly stepped out of the crowd, gazing intently at Ye Jing.

"If we hadn't been driven to despair and felt hopeless, why would we have revolted?"

"Young Master Ye, we have witnessed your strength, but war is not child's play; it concerns the life and death of countless people. You say you want peace, but do you have a concrete plan?" The wise man's voice was soft, yet full of weight.

Ye Jing nodded slightly. "I propose that both sides send representatives to negotiate and jointly discuss how to compensate the victims, how to rebuild the destroyed homes, and how to prevent similar conflicts from happening again in the future. At the same time, I am willing to act as a bridge between the two countries and the three parties, to supervise and promote the implementation of these agreements."

"As for whether you believe me or not? It's a choice you have no other option, because all of you combined can't beat me."

The wise man remained silent for a moment, seemingly weighing the pros and cons. Finally, he slowly nodded. "Alright, as you say. But if you dare to go back on your word, our resistance will not rest until we are dead!"

Ye Jing smiled slightly, a smile that conveyed both confidence and relief. "Rest assured, although I, Ye Jing, am not Saint, I know that the words 'trust' and 'righteousness' are of paramount importance. I will prove with my actions that peace is more valuable than war."

With the wise man's nod, the rebel fighters laid down their weapons, and the atmosphere gradually calmed down.

"Alright, you all stay here and get ready. There's one more thing I need to take care of, then I'll come and get you."

After Ye Jing finished speaking, his figure disappeared again.

He needs to resolve the plague within the Great Li Kingdom; otherwise, even if peace is achieved, the losses will be devastating!

As Ye Jing traversed the void, his heart was heavy not only with the preliminary peace agreement reached with the resistance army, but also with the imminent threat of the plague.

Every inch of the land of the Great Li Kingdom seemed to be shrouded in an atmosphere of despair. He knew that if this disaster was not contained in time, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Ye Jing arrived at a corner of the capital of the Great Li Kingdom, the location of the Alchemist Guild, and his first stop in his search for the antidote.

The Alchemist Guild has already conducted research on the plague, so coming here will save a lot of trouble.

The guild's doors were tightly shut, but the faint candlelight shining through the cracks seemed to tell of a busy, sleepless night.

A gentle knock on the door revealed an elderly alchemist who opened it, his eyes filled with weariness and helplessness. "Who are you? What brings you here?"

Ye Jing bowed respectfully, his tone sincere. "My name is Ye Jing. I have heard that the Great Li Kingdom is ravaged by a plague, and I have come here seeking a cure. May I ask if the guild has made any progress?"

The alchemist sighed and shook his head, "This plague is no small matter. We have tried many prescriptions recorded in Ancient Texts, but all have had little effect. The virus mutates rapidly and is difficult to predict."

Upon hearing this, Ye Jing, though somewhat expecting it, still felt a heaviness in his heart. He smiled slightly, a resolute glint in his eyes. "Perhaps, I can give it a try."

The alchemist stared at him in astonishment, and it took him a long time to recover. "You? Do you know how dangerous this plague is? Unless you are well-versed in pharmacology, rashly trying it will only lead to your death."

"I know what I'm doing." Ye Jing's tone was calm, yet it revealed an undeniable confidence. He requested to enter the guild to view all the information about the plague and the prescriptions that had been tried.

The old alchemist hesitated for a moment, but still agreed to let Ye Jing in.

It doesn't matter whether it works or not, one more person means one more hope!

Inside the guild, Ye Jing buried himself in the data, and soon he found a breakthrough.

Based on the pathological characteristics of the plague and the medicinal properties of several rare herbs, he designed a unique detoxification plan.

"I need these medicinal herbs." Ye Jing handed a piece of paper filled with the names of medicinal herbs to the alchemist, his eyes filled with anticipation.

The alchemist took the paper, examined it carefully, and then looked troubled. "Most of these medicinal herbs are rare and difficult to collect, especially the 'Netherworld Grass' and the 'Blazing Flame Fruit,' which grow in extremely cold and extremely hot places respectively, and are both guarded by powerful beasts."

"Fine, I'll go!" Ye Jing disappeared, and not long after.

He suddenly had two more medicinal herbs in his hand.

The alchemist's mouth dropped open, his face filled with disbelief!

What's going on?

Ye Jing personally took charge, following a meticulously designed formula, and after countless trials and adjustments, finally refined the Detoxification Pill.

All the alchemists were utterly impressed!

Their eyes were wide open!

This is genius, a genius among geniuses!
