Reverse War Surpass Immortal

Ye Tang and Ye Manxiang carefully recalled everything that had happened, and only then did they realize that the reactions of those three people had been truly extraordinary.

"You agree that I wasn't wrong, right?" Duan Gujin said to the two spies.

"Yes, yes! We are indeed Prime Minister Cao's men; he wanted us to monitor everything about Ye Tang and Ye Manxiang! We had originally agreed to act against you tonight!"

One of the spies hastily responded.

Upon hearing this, both Ye Tang and Ye Manxiang's hearts started beating violently in unison.

If Duan Gujin had not discovered those three spies just now, they would have had no idea what kind of foul play they would have faced tonight from Cao Dingtian.

"So what should we do next?"

Ye Manxiang hurriedly asked.

Duan Gujin furrowed his brows; he knew that he could not easily let these underlings of Cao Dingtian return.

If they brought Cao Dingtian here, it would undoubtedly bring great trouble to the Duan Family.

"If I do not want to draw Cao Dingtian here, then I either need to find a way to control them or to kill and silence them outright!"

Duan Gujin exhaled a breath of turbid air and fell silent.

After the silence, he quickly took out a Pill Furnace from his storage ring and placed it in the small courtyard.

He asked Ye Tang and his sister to keep an eye on the two spies, whose Cultivations he had sealed, then he quickly ran to a nearby Elixir Medicine Shop and bought some Spiritual Medicine.

After he came back, he had Ye Tang start a fire directly.

Once the fire was started, he began to refine Poison Pills.

Seeing Duan Gujin refining elixir directly in the small courtyard, the Ye siblings were dumbstruck, their eyes filled with shock.

The faces of the two spies were filled with horror; they saw six red Heavenly Dragon Martial Souls flash above Duan Gujin's head and Soul Fire emitting from his hands.

"Alchemist!"

The two spies, realizing Duan Gujin's proficient movements, knew that he must be a genuine Alchemist, and their hearts began to beat violently; they knew full well what an Alchemist was capable of.

"Write slowly, don't be nervous! I'm just refining some Poison Pills for self-defense!"

Duan Gujin said indifferently.

"What? Poison Pills?"

Their hearts pounding, the two spies heard this.

"Good heavens! Is he planning to poison us to death?"

"I get it now, he definitely wants to kill and silence us!"

The bodies of the two spies shuddered uncontrollably, their hands barely able to hold their brushes.

Seeing their actions, Duan Gujin knew they must be frightened.

He sneered, "Don't worry, rest assured, I won't kill you!"

"Really?"

Hearing this, the two spies were still not convinced.

"Indeed! I won't kill and silence you! I'm only refining Poison Pills to control you! Rest assured, you won't die! As long as you write down everything you know, I won't kill you! I still want you to work for me afterwards!"

Duan Gujin said indifferently.

The two spies, hearing this, had mixed feelings.

After some thought, they understood Duan Gujin's intentions.

"Don't worry, I'll write down everything you want to know!" One spy said earnestly.

"That's good to hear!"

Duan Gujin's eyes flashed fiercely; he had used similar methods before to coerce others into working for him and knew how to force his enemies into service.

An hour later, the two spies had written down everything they knew on white paper.

But Duan Gujin did not immediately go to check what they had written, instead, he first let the Ye siblings see what was written on the paper.

After another 15 minutes, he finally succeeded in refining the Poison Pills.

Duan Gujin took their papers and read them seriously.

After a while, he nodded slightly, "It seems you know quite a lot!"

"Naturally, we've been following Prime Minister Cao since we were young! We are people from his hometown!" One spy replied.

"Did Prime Minister Cao really not tell you why he wanted you to investigate the Ye siblings?" Duan Gujin asked.

"No, we couldn't ask!" Another spy replied.

"Alright then, swallow these two Poison Pills! These Poison Pills will cause an attack every month! If you do not get the antidote within a month after each attack, the only option left for you will be death!"

Duan Gujin immediately handed two Poison Pills to the spies, for them to swallow by themselves.

As for the spy who couldn't get up, Duan Gujin personally forced him to swallow it.

"You two take good care of his injuries. Don't think you have the ability to ask an Advanced Alchemist to detoxify you, really, don't waste your effort! The poison in the Pills I just refined is extremely formidable! I'm not going to make it difficult for you! Here are 300,000 Gold Coins, take them and split them up! Each of you gets 100,000 Gold Coins, and although he has become crippled, as long as he doesn't let out everything that happened here, that's fine! You two can't let him reveal everything that has happened here!"

While threatening the three spies to work for him, Duan Gujin also provided them with substantial benefits.

After receiving Duan Gujin's 200,000 Gold Coins, the two spies had flickering eyes.

Although they were working under Prime Minister Cao, their annual income was barely over a hundred gold coins; now suddenly having 300,000 Gold Coins before them, how could their hearts not be shocked?

Seeing Duan Gujin's generous handout, both Ye siblings were astounded.

"My kidneys! It turns out that Duan Gujin is so wealthy!"

The eyes of the Ye siblings flickered undecidedly; they felt that Duan Gujin should not give so much money to those three spies as it was a completely unprofitable deal!

"How will you explain tonight's task to your superiors?" Duan Gujin asked.

After a moment's hesitation, one spy then told Duan Gujin: "We will say that we were planning to ambush the Ye siblings, but unexpectedly, a master appeared and rescued them! One of us was also injured by that master!"

"Good! After you return, tell Prime Minister Cao this! On this day at noon next month, come here, and I will give you the antidote! If you don't come, then you can only die a miserable death!"

Duan Gujin said seriously. After he finished speaking, he let the three spies leave together.

After the three spies left, he hurriedly asked the Ye siblings to leave the slum area with him.

"You've been too careless!"

Duan Gujin sighed.

"Sorry! Brother Duan! By the way, why didn't you kill those three people?"

Ye Manxiang finally mustered up the courage to inquire Duan Gujin.

Duan Gujin exhaled, "Killing them would be useless! If we killed those three spies here, tell me, wouldn't Prime Minister Cao send someone else to investigate you?"
