My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

"They were infected with the insect plague, and now... the worms inside their bodies have grown up and should have completely taken over their bodies."

Ji Yunshuang's words struck General Yao's mind like a thunderbolt.

He opened his eyes wide and looked at the soldiers.

Among those soldiers were many familiar faces.

Some even fought alongside him many times. They did not die at the hands of the enemy on the battlefield, but in the end, they turned into insects because of the plague.

General Yao simply couldn't accept this fact.

He refused to believe that what Ji Yunshuang said was true.

His face turned deathly pale. "What makes you say that? They were standing there perfectly fine. How could they be insects? How is that possible?"

Ji Yunshuang did not offer much explanation.

No one can accept that their former comrades-in-arms have turned into insects, right? But many things don't simply disappear just because you don't accept them.

Once he sees it with his own eyes, he will naturally force himself to accept the fact.

As the two were talking, the soldiers seemed to snap out of their daze and began to attack Ji Yunshuang.

Ji Yunshuang suddenly drew her sword from her waist and slashed at the soldiers who were attacking her, while warning them, "Be careful, don't let the bugs crawl into your bodies. Otherwise, I won't be able to save you."

Before she finished speaking, she had already severed the soldier's head with a single stroke.

Instantly, a suffocating stench filled the air.

At the same time, a nearly two-foot-long worm fell out of the soldier's head, and the soldier's shrunken body lay limp on the ground, flowing out a pool of dark blood.

Seeing this, General Yao and his men's legs went weak.

The Ji family hadn't lied to them; what she said was actually true. Their subordinates had indeed been possessed by insects and were beyond saving...

How can anyone accept this?

The moment the insect landed, it immediately began searching for a new host.

Ji Yunshuang was fully protected and extremely fierce, so the insects couldn't find an opportunity to attack and naturally set their sights on General Yao and his companions.

As the two nearly two-foot-long worms hurtled towards him, General Yao froze, momentarily forgetting how to react.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Ji Yunshuang pulled him away, helping him dodge the insect's attack, and at the same time, she swiftly chopped the insect into several pieces.

The insects were killed, but the remaining soldiers went berserk and began attacking Ji Yunshuang.

Ji Yunshuang wielded the knife so fast it left afterimages, making it impossible for these people to get close to her.

In addition, she was protected, so the insects had no way to enter Ji Yunshuang's body.

General Yao and his group, however, were not as skilled as Ji Yunshuang and were not wearing protective suits. After leaving their original bodies, the insects all chose to attack General Yao and his group.

General Yao and his companions felt as if they were in a living hell.

Their former colleagues had turned into insects, each wanting to kill them, which was hard for them to accept.

What devastated them even more was that they all developed symptoms of the plague, such as weakness, abdominal pain, and vomiting.

At this moment, they were completely powerless to fight against those insects.

Faced with overwhelming fear, the group could no longer maintain their integrity and began to plead for help from Ji Yunshuang.

"Lord Ji... help me!"

"Quickly, kill this bug for me! My stomach hurts, I can't hold a knife..."

……

Ji Yunshuang certainly wouldn't let them die like that.

The reason they deliberately didn't provide them with any protection and even showed them such a terrifying scene was simply to scare them and make the rest of the process go more smoothly.

Seeing that she had scared the group enough, Ji Yunshuang then made her move and killed the insects that were about to burrow into their bodies.

Afterwards, she summoned Xu Xi and ordered him to lead troops to control the scene, while she escaped with General Yao and his entourage.

After the Qi army occupied the five cities, they chose Zheng City, which had strong city walls, as their military camp.

When Ji Yunshuang used her telekinesis to sense the situation in the military camp, she discovered that there were no soldiers whose bodies had been completely taken over by the insects near the western city wall.

So she led General Yao and the others to the city wall.

She first took out the medicine and gave it to the group before saying, "General Yao, you have all seen the current situation."

"At this time, you must cooperate with me and make the Qi soldiers who haven't yet turned into insects completely believe me. Then we will work together to kill those insects."

"If you don't kill those insects, the rest of your soldiers might all be invaded by them. In that case, the entire Qi army of hundreds of thousands will be wiped out!"

Not only the Qi army, but if the plague spreads further, your families may also be threatened. I don't think that's something you want to see!

After taking the medicine, General Yao's abdominal pain symptoms improved slightly, but he still felt weak all over, nauseous, and kept wanting to vomit.

He sat down on the ground in a disheveled state, weakly cupping his hands towards Ji Yunshuang and saying, "Thank you very much for saving my life, Lord Ji."

It was a simple action, but he was panting heavily as he performed it. A bitter look appeared on his face as he asked, "Lord Ji, what exactly are those insects? I have never heard of such evil creatures in my entire life."

"I am not sure as well."

Ji Yunshuang paused for a moment, then said, "Before, I only guessed that these insects were deliberately tamed by someone using witchcraft. I just learned some ways to deal with them based on some of their characteristics during my previous interactions with them."

General Yao had suspected before that the plague was a conspiracy orchestrated by Ji Yunshuang.

But today, after witnessing Ji Yunshuang being besieged by those insectoid beings, he dispelled his doubts.

The way those insectoids looked at Ji Yunshuang was clearly as if she were a delicious delicacy. They all wished they could tear her to pieces and devour her.

She also deeply loathed those insects, and when she killed them, she was filled with malice.

It's clear from all aspects that these insectoids have nothing to do with Ji Yunshuang. His previous suspicions about her were simply narrow-minded.

If this plague is not brought under control, it could drag everyone into a hellish catastrophe. At this point, whether military power has fallen into her hands is no longer the most important thing.

He pondered for a moment before finally replying, "I am willing to fully cooperate with Lord Ji, hoping only to quell this disaster as soon as possible."

The remaining generals also had no objections.

They are not afraid of death!

But they didn't want to end up like those soldiers, their bodies eaten away by insects.

Moreover, as Ji Yunshuang said, if this disaster cannot be controlled and those insects cannot be wiped out.

Not only will the soldiers of Qi suffer, but when the plague spreads, the people of Qi may also be unable to escape.

Their families are also facing threats.
