With Wei Meidai's silence, the perceptive people present had already understood the truth.
If what Wei Meidai said was true, then why would she be speechless now?
Ling Jiaxin and the others were dumbfounded. What was going on? Why was Wei Meidai not speaking?
Jiang Pengze and the others, who had rushed over upon hearing the news, were also shocked by what they saw.
They had quickly come here upon hearing the news, afraid that they would be missing from Baili Hongzhuang's support.
Now, it seemed that even without their presence as proof, everyone would still believe in Baili Hongzhuang.
Her skills and abilities were truly amazing!
There was a glimmer of admiration in Emperor Beichen's eyes. His wife was truly not to be underestimated.
The entire incident seemed to have been initiated by Ling Jiaxin and the others, but in reality, Baili Hongzhuang had been in control from beginning to end.
Everything, from Ling Jiaxin and the others' plans, reactions, and methods, was exactly as she had expected.
Just this alone was already remarkable.
Just as Wei Meidai was at a loss, a hoarse and resentful voice suddenly sounded.
"Heavenly Star Grass, Rootless Wood, Willow Mist Flower..."
These were all medicinal herbs used by alchemists in refining pills!
Upon hearing this voice, everyone turned to look at its source.
They saw Gu Cangyun walking to the front of the meeting square with a dark expression. Although he had disguised himself quite well, there was still a hint of paleness on his face.
Seeing Gu Cangyun's appearance, Wei Meidai's face lit up with joy.
Although she didn't understand why her master suddenly appeared here, his presence now was no different than her savior!
"Oh my, it's actually Master Gu Cangyun. He has come to Canglan Academy personally."
"I wonder what he's here for. He doesn't look friendly."
"Could it be that Master Gu is here to help Wei Meidai identify Baili Hongzhuang?"
Faced with this sudden change, everyone had different opinions. It seemed that there was a new twist in the matter that was about to conclude.
Regarding the medicinal herbs recited by Gu Cangyun, Baili Hongzhuang was not unfamiliar with them. They were the basic ingredients for laxative pills, but Gu Cangyun hadn't mentioned some other things.
It seemed that even Gu Cangyun himself hadn't figured them out.
After all, the pills she refined weren't so easily imitated.
However, upon seeing Gu Cangyun's pale complexion, Baili Hongzhuang couldn't help but feel puzzled.
She had already guessed that Gu Cangyun would know that these pills were laxatives and not meridian-expanding pills. The reason for doing this was simply to taunt the old man.
But Gu Cangyun's pale face and the slight exhaustion he now showed were clearly the results of taking laxatives.
Could it be... Gu Cangyun also took the laxatives?
That shouldn't be possible!
Just as Baili Hongzhuang was in doubt, the excited voice of Little Black resounded.
"Master, you're right. Gu Cangyun's strength has indeed dropped by two whole levels, haha."
"It seems that this old man has been quite agitated." Little White smirked, "His strength was never strong to begin with, and now losing two levels of cultivation at his age will definitely make him suffer for a while."
Hearing this, a mocking smile appeared in Baili Hongzhuang's eyes.
Although she didn't understand why the old man would take laxatives, she was delighted to see him suffer a little!
