After the free medical consultation in the capital ended, Xueyao turned her attention to those poor families.

When the capital city was in turmoil, as soon as the major issues were resolved, he took the emperor and Murong Chen to the slums and selected a few representative areas for them to see, letting them know that even under the emperor's feet, there were these unknown corners of suffering.

That day, the emperor and Murong Chen were both moved and promised to do their best to improve the lives of the people.

Seeing them like this, Xueyao breathed a sigh of relief. The emperor didn't say anything more. Murong Chen was going to be a wise ruler in the future. How could a wise ruler not know the suffering of the people?

At that time, Xueyao asked them to support the cause in an official manner. She could provide the money, and the government would send people to take charge.

Of course the emperor and Murong Chen are willing. Only a fool would not want such a good thing sent from heaven.

Therefore, according to Xueyao's ideas, responsible persons and departments were appointed for the renovation of slum housing, the establishment of workshops near slums, the solution of employment and living problems of the poor, and the establishment of schools in the east, west, south, north and center.

Moreover, these matters are all tied to the money of the relevant personnel, requiring these people to be able to get things done.

Xueyao and others, while busy with other things, did not forget to follow up on the progress of these projects. She often sent people to understand the situation, to ensure that every penny was spent wisely and that everyone in need received tangible help.

Gradually, changes were evident in the slums. Once dilapidated houses were renovated, and the streets became clean and tidy. New workshops began operating, providing employment opportunities and a stable income for the poor. The establishment of schools gave children in the slums the opportunity to receive an education, brightening their futures.

Xueyao looked at these changes and felt relieved.

She knew that these changes were not only due to her efforts, but also to the support of the emperor and Murong Chen, as well as those who silently contributed. She believed that as long as everyone worked together, the capital would become a better place.

However, just when Xueyao thought everything was going well, an unexpected piece of news shattered her peace. Someone told her that some people in the slums were beginning to experience symptoms of illness, and some had even died. Xueyao was shocked and immediately decided to go investigate in person.

In the slums, she encountered people struggling in agony. Their symptoms were similar: persistent high fever, general weakness, and a persistent cough. Xueyao observed these symptoms closely, finding them remarkably similar to those reported in the village north of the city. She was alarmed, knowing that if no immediate action was taken, the plague could spread to the slums.

Xueyao immediately brought Suxin and Xiaolin'er to the rescue. They first isolated the slums to prevent the spread of the plague. With their previous experience, the epidemic was quickly brought under control. The people who had contracted the disease gradually recovered under Xueyao and her team's meticulous care.

"If this epidemic continues like this, it may flare up again. We have to solve it thoroughly." That day, when night fell, the group of eight gathered together, and Xueyao said to everyone.

"Yes, we are afraid of potential factors. If they are not discovered now, they will break out in some time." Yun Duoduo agreed.

"How to solve it, Xueyao, do you have any idea?" Xue Yu asked. The others also looked at her, their eyes full of questions.

At this moment, Su Xin suddenly said, "How about a big move, like the time you released the medicine to detoxify in the air?"

She looked at Xue Yao. The last time in Fucheng, Xue Yao shattered the Soul-Returning Pill in mid-air to track down the Soul-Locking Pill and neutralize the poison. This incident kept circling in her mind.

She had admired Xueyao before, so she voluntarily signed a pact with Xueyao and became Xueyao's pet. Although she was called a pet, Xueyao actually treated her like a sister, even closer than a real sister.

And when she learned that Xue Yao had generously removed the poison from the Soul-Locking Pill, she admired her even more and wanted to try it herself.

As soon as she said this, her eagerness to try was revealed without any concealment.

After she said this, others naturally wanted to try it too.

Xueyao could see it, so she nodded and said, "Okay."

Su Xin had hit the nail on the head; she was indeed planning a large-scale operation to completely eliminate the hidden dangers of the plague. However, this time, the situation was different from the last time, and she needed more careful planning and preparation.

"Let's work together." Xue Yao said in a deep voice, "Come, I'll tell you how to do it."

"Okay." Everyone was overjoyed.

Xueyao also wanted to give everyone a chance to practice. If anyone couldn't do it well, she was still there.

At night, all eight of them entered the secret garden. Under Xueyao's unified arrangement, Xueyao, Suxin and Yun Duoduo gave instructions at the beginning, while the others began to refine the elixir.

The prescription was based on the one last used in the village north of the city. Every ingredient and every step of that recipe was as clear as if engraved in their minds.

Soon, Xueyu, Xiaolin'er, and the others were all on board. Actually, alchemy was no stranger to them. The eight members of the Secret Garden were all skilled doctors and had each made their own alchemy, though they hadn't practiced it much, so they weren't as proficient as Xueyao, Suxin, and Yun Duoduo.

Now, they can also take the opportunity to improve their alchemy skills, and everyone is eager to try it out after hearing this.

Eight people were refining pills simultaneously. In the Secret Garden, half a month had passed, and the pills had piled up into a small mountain. Half a month in the Secret Garden was equivalent to half an hour in the outside world.

"These pills are enough. Is there any problem with the specific method I told you before?" Xue Yao asked.

"No problem." Everyone answered straightforwardly, and they all wanted to try it as soon as possible.

Xue Yao glanced at everyone. "Okay, let's start by assigning positions. Su Xin will be in the east, Xue Yu will be in the west, I'll be in the south, Qing Yi will be in the north, and Yun Duoduo, Xiao Lin'er, Bao Ling, and Ren Hu will be in charge of the southeast, northeast, southwest, and northwest respectively."

Xiao Lin'er's eyes lit up. "Mother, each of us is responsible for our own areas. Where to start? Can we decide for ourselves?"

Xue Yao smiled slightly, "Start from the center of the city. I will give you a location, and you will each start from the center of the city and spread out in your own direction."

Treat the epidemic if there is one, and prevent it if there is none. The medicine has full coverage, leaving the epidemic nowhere to escape.

"Understood!" Everyone answered in unison, with anticipation and excitement glittering in their eyes.

"Well, let's get started." Xue Yao said, and then divided the pills into eight portions and asked everyone to keep them.

Take advantage of the cover of night so as not to alert the people.

After leaving the Secret Garden, she took the lead and flew towards the capital. When she reached the appropriate location in the center of the city, she stopped flying like a cloud. The others followed one after another, each finding their own position.

Xue Yao took a deep breath. She knew that this operation concerned the safety of the entire capital, and she could not be careless in the slightest.

Following Xue Yao's command, the eight people simultaneously began to move. They each took out their elixir, formed hand seals, and poured their internal energy into it. The elixir instantly turned to dust in their hands. As they moved, the powder began to disperse in the air, like a fine snow, silently covering the entire capital and its surrounding areas.

Xue Yao and the others stood in their respective positions, concentrating on controlling the spread of the powder. Their internal energy was continuously injected into it, allowing the powder to cover every corner of the capital, even those remote alleys and slums.

During this process, the group of eight people slowly floated in eight directions. Whether looking up or looking down, they were like a flower blooming quietly in eight directions above the capital.
