Boris Gustav knew that if he asked Ling Tian and Aurora for help, they would likely have a way to solve the parasite problem, but the current issue was how to persuade them.
Boris had no psychological barriers to seeking out his enemies; as a politician, he frequently switched sides for his own benefit. This was standard operating procedure.
Close allies would often fall out over interests, stabbing each other in the back. Conversely, parties that had been at each other's throats could, the next moment, be arm-in-arm, unhesitatingly wielding sickles to harvest the weak.
However, the biggest problem now was that he had completely fallen out with Ling Tian. The banquet, a trap set by the Gustav family, had even involved people from the Dark Altar.
Such a ruthless move was clearly aimed at Ling Tian's life. How could Ling Tian let this go? Even if he ordered Wang Qingtian's release immediately, Ling Tian would likely not let the Gustav family off the hook!
Boris Gustav was now somewhat regretful. When they were planning the Ice Sky Pharmaceutical, they had also conducted an investigation. As far as he knew, the reason Ice Sky Pharmaceutical had not been touched was that there was an extremely powerful ancient family in China that had publicly declared they were protecting Ice Sky Pharmaceutical.
This family was the Xuanyuan family. However, as an American, he was very arrogant. Boris had not taken the Xuanyuan family seriously and decided to act against Ice Sky Pharmaceutical.
In hindsight, this had been a foolish move with extremely severe consequences.
He had also not expected Ling Tian and Aurora to be able to enlist the Hughes family's help. They were now embroiled in a lawsuit, with the Hughes family leveraging their political connections and the public opinion they controlled to comprehensively suppress the Gustav family.
These tactics had a significant impact on Boris's future presidential campaign.
Subsequently, Gustav Pharmaceuticals suffered a catastrophic blow, incurring losses of tens of billions of US dollars, which severely weakened the Gustav family.
Especially now, the father and son had paid with their lives!
Boris Gustav knew very well that if he died now, the next generation of the Gustav family had not yet matured. Especially a coward like Mark, who could not support the family's future. Moreover, even such a coward probably wouldn't live much longer.
Once Boris died, the Boris family would surely be torn apart by his opponents, devoured until not even dregs remained!
Having caused such immense losses and created this situation, Boris truly wished he could buy a regret pill, but there was nowhere to get one.
...
Maple Leaf Country, Wenge Hua. Ling Tian had just finished a video call with Wang Bingxia, who was back in China.
Ling Tian informed Wang Bingxia that Wang Qingtian would be returning to China soon, which finally put her mind at ease.
Ling Tian knew that as long as Boris Gustav wasn't insane, he would make the correct choice. Of course, before that, they had to guard against the possibility of him acting desperately.
Just then, Ling Tian received a message from Ali, and he immediately entered the Spirit Realm space. Da Feng Novel Network.
At this moment, in the Spirit Realm mansion, Ali and the butler were sitting around a table. On the table lay an object the size of a palm.
Ling Tian walked over and discovered that it was a Bagua. It appeared to be made of metal, but its colors were very vibrant.
In the center of the Bagua was the Yin-Yang fish, and around it was the Bagua diagram. It looked like this was the legendary Star-Fixing Disk.
"Huh, wasn't it said that two were needed?" Ling Tian asked curiously.
From the butler, Ling Tian learned about the function of the Star-Fixing Disk. To use the Star-Fixing Disk, two were required.
One had to be carried by a person, allowing Ali to lock onto the location of those entering space channels and other planes.
The other had to be left in a chosen plane. Only then could Ali select the one she needed from thousands of planes.
The butler smiled, walked forward, picked up the Star-Fixing Disk, and then spun the Yin-Yang fish in the center with his hand. With a click, the Yin-Yang fish was removed from the disk. It was a round plaque with a diameter the size of a walnut.
"Ling Tian, this Star-Fixing Disk actually consists of two, used as a pair. This design allows the two Star-Fixing Disks to have a closer connection and helps Ali lock onto spatial locations."
"So that's how it is! What do we do next?"
"Of course, we test it! Continue experimenting with those sheep to see if we can send them into the designated space!"
The two wasted no time. Soon, more than a dozen sheep were bought.
Ling Tian had someone make a brocade pouch and tied it around the sheep's neck with a rope. Inside this pouch was the Yin-Yang fish-shaped Star-Fixing Disk. The other Star-Fixing Disk, the one with the Bagua pattern around it, was placed in the Spirit Realm space.
If they could send the target into the Spirit Realm space, that would be the best option, as the Spirit Realm space had everything, and its safety was not a concern.
Ali walked behind the ram and, raising her foot again, kicked its hindquarters forcefully.
The ram, in pain, quickly became enraged and charged directly at Ali.
Sheep are truly unintelligent. Once provoked, they would charge even at lions and tigers. However, they were still food in front of those magical beasts.
Ali snapped her fingers. After a few days of training, Ali was now very familiar with opening space channels. She could now open space channels without any special gestures, just a snap of her fingers.
A spatial ripple, invisible to the naked eye, quickly appeared in front of the ram. The ram plunged its head straight into it.
However, the next moment, the ram flew out of the space channel with a scream and fell heavily to the ground, immediately losing consciousness.
This bizarre scene left Ling Tian and Ali looking at each other, unsure of what had happened.
"What's going on, Ali? Is the Star-Fixing Disk not working?"
"I don't know either. I clearly locked onto the location of the Spirit Realm space and the sheep's location, then guided this sheep through the space channel to enter the Spirit Realm space, but it was repelled..." Ali said somewhat dejectedly.
"Then let's try again!"
The two changed to another sheep. Ling Tian tied the brocade pouch around the sheep's neck and, following the same procedure, opened a space channel.
But this time, the result was identical. The sheep was also repelled with a scream, leaving Ling Tian completely bewildered.
"You two, this won't work!"
Just then, the butler spoke. Ling Tian and Ali's gazes focused on the butler's face, wanting to hear his insights.
