Bai Haotian on the bed continued to twitch, foam at the mouth.
A few minutes later, Bai Haotian's mouth suddenly opened, and Bai Guanghai, who was watching from the side, felt his pupils constrict sharply.
This was because Bai Guanghai now saw a worm, about the length and thickness of a little finger, crawling out of Bai Haotian's mouth.
The worm was green all over, with disgusting black spots on its body. Its round mouth was lined with rows of circular teeth, resembling a lamprey.
"See, the culprit is out!"
"So it was this thing. I'll kill it!"
Bai Guanghai, with bloodshot eyes, wanted to step forward and crush the worm. However, Ling Tian kicked him to the ground.
At this very moment, an unexpected change occurred. The worm that had just crawled out of Bai Haotian's body suddenly folded in half and shot out.
A green light flew towards Ling Tian. This green light was incredibly fast, comparable to a bullet.
In a flash, as the worm was about to hit Ling Tian, a thick-mouthed glass bottle suddenly appeared in Ling Tian's hand. The stopper was open, and the bottle was still more than half full of liquid.
The worm, caught off guard, plunged directly into the bottle and into the liquid. Ling Tian raised his hand and stoppered the bottle with a swift, seamless motion.
Upon contact with the liquid, the worm began to twist violently, thrashing about uncontrollably.
After more than ten seconds, the entire body of the worm was submerged in the liquid. Subsequently, its body turned black and began to shrink.
After a few more seconds, the worm's body turned into something like charcoal and finally dissolved into a pool of liquid, merging with the liquid in the bottle.
Bai Guanghai, who had been kicked to the ground, watched this terrifying scene with his own eyes and was completely stunned.
Ling Tian sneered, "You're really bold, daring to grab it with your bare hands. That protective suit of yours, this worm would have bitten through it in an instant."
"What's in this bottle?" Bai Guanghai asked, his heart pounding with lingering fear.
"Aqua regia, a mixture of concentrated sulfuric acid and concentrated nitric acid. It's the strongest acid in the world, capable of dissolving even gold!
If you stick your finger in, it'll melt in seconds!"
Bai Guanghai gasped in amazement. He knew how powerful aqua regia was, but that worm had been soaking in it for tens of seconds before dying, which showed how tenacious its vitality was.
Such a thing had been inside his son's body for so long. How terrifying was that!
Ling Tian walked forward, turned Bai Haotian's body over, positioning his mouth towards a plastic bucket, and patted him on the back.
The young man coughed up a lot of things again before finally stopping. He then fell into a deep unconsciousness.
Ling Tian patted Bai Haotian on the back.
"Alright, done. He'll wake up after some sleep. Have your people clean him up and take him away.
Also, all the furniture in this room that he's coughed things onto, take it all away and burn it. Don't leave it here to harm anyone."
"Okay, I'll arrange it immediately!" Bai Guanghai said without further ado. Having personally witnessed the removal of the divine蛊 from his son, he felt a temporary sense of relief.
Ling Tian did not leave immediately. He watched as Bai Guanghai's subordinates cleared out everything in the room and took it away to be burned before he felt at ease.
He did not fully trust Bai Guanghai's character. Who knew if the man would turn hostile.
At this moment, Bai Guanghai approached him again.
"Mr. Ling, has the蛊 worm been completely removed from my son? Will there be any after-effects?"
Ling Tian took a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Bai Guanghai. Bai Guanghai looked at the paper, its writing strong and vigorous.
"This contains two prescriptions. The first medicine is a powerful laxative. Take it before lunch every day. Within a few hours of taking it, you will vomit and have diarrhea.
This medicine needs to be taken for a month to completely clear the remaining toxins from the body.
Of course, if you don't want to suffer and don't take it, it's fine. It will just take a few years off your lifespan for the body to metabolize those toxins completely!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Guanghai's face turned green. Just from Ling Tian's description, he knew this medicine was likely no ordinary concoction.
Ling Tian continued, "The second medicine on the paper is a tonic. Take it after breakfast and dinner every day for three months. It will replenish his body's deficiencies over the years and allow him to live a few years longer!
Alright, Patriarch Bai, I've said all I need to say. We shall never meet again!
I want to remind you that I don't want to be enemies with your Bai family. However, I am not the kind of person who will not retaliate when provoked."
Bai Guanghai wished he could strike Ling Tian down with a single blow at that moment, but he held himself back, watching Ling Tian stride away.
At this point, a middle-aged man next to Bai Guanghai leaned in. This man was named Bai Wenlong, a venerated elder of the Bai family.
"Patriarch, this young man is too arrogant and extremely dangerous. Such a person cannot be allowed to live."
"I know that, of course. However, Haotian is not completely out of danger yet, so we must endure.
But you can start preparing now. Once Haotian is out of danger, we will make our move. I will not let this Ling Tian, or the Wang family, off the hook!"
...
Two days later, Ling Tian, Wang Bingxia, and Wang Qing Tian drove together to an industrial park located in the southeastern part of Jiangshan City.
Baijin Pharmaceutical, one of the Wang family's assets, was located here.
In the past few days, Ling Tian had repeatedly studied the information about this pharmaceutical company. Seeing it on-site today, he was even more impressed.
This pharmaceutical plant occupied a large area, with comprehensive facilities and a complete range of departments. The employees were also of high caliber.
Especially the laboratory equipment and modern production lines, which gave this pharmaceutical plant immense production potential.
However, they currently lacked any standout products. Their older products were not selling well, and some categories were even operating at a loss.
Especially for some Western medicines, the state's unified procurement prices were very low, leaving almost no profit.
After touring the pharmaceutical plant, the group proceeded to an office building next to the plant. In the conference room, they met the management team of the plant.
The current head of the pharmaceutical plant was named Xu Gang. He was in his late forties and had worked in the pharmaceutical industry his entire life, possessing rich experience.
However, Wang Qing Tian did not like this person. In recent times, Baijin Pharmaceutical had undergone equity changes and was preparing to implement a series of reforms.
Yet, as the head of the pharmaceutical plant, Xu Gang was very resistant to this and was not cooperating at all.
This situation was not surprising, as the pharmaceutical plant was originally managed by the Wang family's second son, Wang Qinghai. Xu Gang had also been personally promoted by the second son.
Although they had separated, the Wang family's second son had secretly instructed Xu Gang to cause trouble for Wang Qing Tian and his group. Perhaps the old man, seeing that the pharmaceutical plant was not operating well, would then hand over some of its assets to him for disposal!
