Chen Changli had a keen sense of smell. Upon hearing Wan Shufang's words, he immediately concentrated and tried to capture the smell in the air. He soon distinguished a burnt odor from a wildfire permeating the air.

He was filled with doubt and said in a cold voice, "Someone set the fire. Because of the poisonous incense, many people died in the villa. When the flames started, the bodies of the dead people were about to be burned to charcoal."

"Does Old Lady Shang want to die with these people?" Wan Shufang suddenly realized, and then her face was filled with resentment. "She kindly reminded us before. If we didn't react to what was going on, wouldn't we be burned to death here?"

After the Imperial Hospital was trapped by fire and Tianlin Town was almost burned down by fire, Wan Shufang now has a fear of fire. She never expected that Old Lady Shang would be so cruel that she actually wanted to destroy everything with fire.

"Old Lady Shang wants to die with her." Chen Changli came to this conclusion after thinking about it. "She is willing to give us a warning, but in fact, she is also testing us."

"Is this also a test?" Wan Shufang was shocked.

Chen Changli said in a positive tone: "It's just a test. After all, she can't guarantee whether her plan will succeed. We are outsiders, so she will naturally worry that our presence will make her fail."

"She said some specious things in front of my husband and me, confirming that my husband and I are hostile to the New Heaven Society. She gave us a warning."

"As for whether we can wake up or not, that's our business. She won't care at all, and won't give us any more hints."

When Wan Shufang heard this explanation, her heart sank. "This old lady Shang is clearly overthinking and doesn't want us to hinder her plans, so she deliberately said some specious words to disrupt our thoughts."

In such a short time, they were not members of the New Heaven Society, so how could they understand the hints given by Old Lady Shang? Therefore, Wan Shufang believed that Old Lady Shang had good intentions but not much.

"Old Lady Shang must have made a lot of arrangements in the villa, which is why everyone in the villa was poisoned by her."

Chen Changli smelled the increasingly strong burnt smell, his mind stormed, and the next moment he said to Wan Shufang.

"You go into the hospital space first and come back in two hours."

Wan Shufang's heart immediately rose to her throat when she heard this. "What are your plans?"

She did not ask Chen Changli to hide with her because Chen Changli gave a time limit.

After two hours, no matter what happened here, Chen Changli would definitely appear here. She would come out of the hospital space and could just take him in.

"I want to find Old Lady Shang." Chen Changli expressed his thoughts, "If we can figure out how Old Lady Shang destroyed this place, maybe we can use it to find a way to survive."

Flames are merciless and spread easily. Chen Changli felt that since Old Lady Shang set such a fire with the determination to die, it meant that she had been lurking here for a long time.

Maybe he could find out where the way to survive was through her?

"Then go find her. I'll wait for you here for two hours. You must come back on time."

Wan Shufang did not intend to stop Chen Changli, but only reminded him that after all, Chen Changli possessed the Phoenix Gu, so he would be fine even if the villa was filled with poisonous incense. If she followed Chen Changli, she would only hold him back.

Wan Shufang realized this and no matter how worried she was about what might happen to Chen Changli, she didn't want to hold him back at this critical moment. After all, Old Lady Shang had gone mad.

Chen Changli nodded seriously: "Don't worry, I will be back on time."

After he said this, he urged Wan Shufang to enter the hospital space. After Wan Shufang obeyed, he immediately followed the direction of the fire to find Old Lady Shang, but he didn't expect that Old Lady Shang had already arrived at the place where opium was produced.

She looked at the poisonous flowers scattered all over the ground, and then glanced at the many doctors lying on the ground without breathing, and immediately laughed crazily: "I didn't expect that the toxicity of the poisonous flowers mixed together could even suppress the poison used to make various opium."

"It seems that God also wants you to die early. If so, I will help you, so that you won't die late and miss Qinghe who died earlier than you."

As she spoke, she walked to the place where saltpeter and kerosene were piled, and then spread the kerosene everywhere.

Then she soaked the rope in kerosene, threw one end on the ground, and led the other end outside.

Once she was in a safe place, she started to light the fire.

Watching the flames rising, Old Lady Shang's eyes turned bloodshot, like a ghost crawling out of hell, which was terrifying.

At this moment, Cao Yunqi's voice rang out from the left front: "Mrs. Shang, why is it you?"

"So you are the traitor." Yi Shu's face was pale, and her eyes were almost spitting fire as she stared at Old Lady Shang. If looks could kill, she would have wanted to cut this crazy old lady Shang into pieces.

"You guys are still alive?" When Old Lady Shang heard Cao Yunqi's voice, her body stiffened and she deliberately went into the house.

Seeing this, Yi Shu and Cao Yunqi immediately chased after him.

They were so aggressive that they seemed to want to capture Old Lady Shang and torture her to vent their hatred.

When Old Lady Shang saw that they were chasing her, she felt very proud, but she pretended to be frightened on her face.

"You forced me to do this. I had no choice but to do this. Yi Shu, do you still remember what Wan Shufang said to you? You are taking opium now."

In order to achieve her goal, Mrs. Shang deliberately revealed the fact that Yi Shufu was using opium.

Yi Shu was furious when he heard this: "You were the one who gave me opium, Mrs. Shang, how have I ever let you down? You actually want to hurt me like this, you're looking for death."

She was so angry that she took out a whip and rushed forward, followed closely by Cao Yunqi. At this moment, the flame of the burning rope suddenly rose higher when it touched the kerosene.

The next moment, the entire room where opium was produced was engulfed in raging flames, and the saltpeter prepared by Old Lady Shang using a secret method was like a god's help.

There were several loud bangs in succession, causing Yi Shu and Cao Yunqi's ears to hurt and bleed.

They held their ears in extreme pain, their mouths moving slightly as if they were about to curse at Old Lady Shang, but they didn't expect that at this moment the whole villa seemed to have angered the gods, with continuous rumbling thunder.

When the thunder stopped, Old Lady Shang, Yi Shu and Cao Yunqi were all buried by the collapsed houses, and half of the villa collapsed directly.

"Is this a punishment from God?" Chang Xuewei wanted to chase Chen Changli, so she ordered Yi Shu and the other person to investigate the situation in the villa. When the thunder sounded and the whole earth was shaking, she quickly found a place to hide.

When the vibration subsided, she quickly went in the direction where the sound came from, but she didn't expect to see a large area of ​​ruins.

She was so scared that her breathing became rapid and her face turned pale as paper, and at this time Chen Changli also ran over.

Chen Changli was also shocked when he saw the ruins all over the ground.

"Chen Changli, did you do this? How did you do it?"

Chang Xuewei heard a breathing sound not far away and immediately stared over.

As soon as she saw it was Chen Changli, she immediately vented all her anger and suspicion on Chen Changli.

Chen Changli suppressed his shock and glared at Chang Xuewei with an annoyed look: "If I had such ability, how could I let you live?"
