Shang Jingwang was startled, but upon regaining his senses, he couldn't help but look towards Huangfu Jingchen and Xia Wenjin. He understood that the only person capable of causing the bowstring to snap and preventing the fire from igniting was likely Young Master Jing.
At this moment, the smoke was carried by the wind and drifted towards the mountain. The villagers in the quarantine zone were both shocked and delighted; they wouldn't be burned to death. Could this mean they could survive?
Huangfu Jingchen raised his voice and said, "The epidemic in Wangshan Town has dissipated. Does Yu County Magistrate still wish to create senseless bloodshed? Now the bowstrings have snapped, and the fire won't burn. Can you still not see? This is heaven's will to prevent you from slaughtering the innocent! If you persist, heaven might deliver punishment!"
