Bai Suxiang had been busy on the front lines treating patients. It was only during a recent meal that she realized she hadn't seen Liu Sandao and Fu Ruhai for several days.
Currently, in Huaxia Country, Yitieling had secured a monopolistic position.
Many people also used Tuiyibao, but overall, it couldn't even reach half of Yitieling's usage. Coupled with the entry of foreign medicines into Huaxia Country, the promotion of Tuiyibao faced immense challenges.
Professor Jin Zhong had returned to his post, though his responsibilities seemed to have been adjusted.
He was responsible for promoting Tuiyibao, serving only as an honorary advisor.
However, Jin Zhong did not seem to care about these setbacks and would occasionally discuss the insufficient production of Tuiyibao with Bai Suxiang.
Bai Suxiang was unaware of the current medication situation in Huaxia Country, nor did she understand the thinking of the hospital's leadership.
She could only busy herself daily with the backup procedures for Tuiyibao.
However, after seeing a piece of news, she decided she needed to tell Liu Sandao and the others as soon as possible.
There were reports that Yitieling was involved in some deliberate manipulation by certain individuals in Huaxia Country. The objective was to make Yitieling the only special effect medicine for plagues nationwide.
The video detailed how some people brazenly expanded their recruitment of agents, profiting thousands of yuan from a single box of Yitieling.
This video instantly enraged the vast majority of netizens.
Even more infuriating was that to expand their quotas, some people even had healthy individuals pose as patients.
This was to serve as recipients for Yitieling, reportedly to increase revenue.
And this revenue came from the hard-earned money of the people of Huaxia Country.
Public sentiment was ignited, and the Huaxia Country authorities had to come up with an effective solution to cope.
Bai Suxiang had a premonition that Tuiyibao's opportunity might be coming, meaning its production volume would definitely need to increase.
If Liu Sandao and Fu Ruhai could not be found, even a tenfold increase in current production would not enable Tuiyibao to replace Yitieling.
Therefore, Bai Suxiang had to make time to find Liu Sandao and Fu Ruhai.
Unfortunately, she couldn't get through to Liu Sandao's phone.
In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures were needed.
Bai Suxiang had no choice but to venture to the Xia Hua Bank under the cover of night.
This was a location Fu Ruhai had inadvertently mentioned before he left. Bai Suxiang hadn't clearly heard the details at the time. With no other leads to find them, she could only go there to try her luck.
Unexpectedly, upon arriving at Xia Hua Bank, she witnessed a struggle outside the bank.
"Where do you think you're going!"
"Ah!"
Bai Suxiang heard a soul spirit charging towards her and cried out in fear.
But she couldn't escape and had to face the soul spirit before her.
"How could it be you?"
It turned out that the person standing opposite her was Fang Huairan.
It truly was a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road. She would likely not escape death today.
If Fang Huairan were human, Bai Suxiang might have had a chance to defeat her.
But the Fang Huairan before her was a soul spirit, a soul spirit that had absorbed Fugen and Fuguo. Escaping would be easier said than done.
"Hahaha, it's me! Now where do you think you can run!"
Fang Huairan burst into laughter and reached out with both hands to grab Bai Suxiang's arm.
Just as Bai Suxiang was about to resist, a pair of dark hands firmly grasped her arm.
"Don't move. Fight with me, just like you did at school! That way, I can cover for you to see Liu Sandao!"
Fang Huairan suddenly leaned close to her ear and whispered.
Bai Suxiang's trembling heart finally found some solace.
She didn't know if Fang Huairan was telling the truth, but it certainly didn't seem like she intended to harm her. Otherwise, with her own mortal abilities, she wouldn't be able to "fight" Fang Huairan.
Using the opportunity of grappling with Bai Suxiang, Fang Huairan, while wrestling with her, moved along the corridor of Xia Hua Bank, covering Bai Suxiang's path to see Liu Sandao.
"Hahaha, hahaha! It's good that you're here! It's good that you're here!"
Seeing Bai Suxiang arrive, Na Qianlai suddenly burst into laughter.
Due to Liu Sandao's intervention, Na Qianlai had not killed Jia Sidao.
But Liu Sandao and his companions were not gaining the upper hand either.
Na Qianlai suddenly leaped a thousand meters away.
At this moment, he saw Fang Huairan and Bai Suxiang walking towards the middle of the corridor. This was an extremely rare opportunity.
With Bai Suxiang present, Liu Sandao and Fu Ruhai's combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced.
Jia Sidao was no match for him, so he was not worried at all.
The reason he had Fang Huairan lure Bai Suxiang was not due to deliberate instigation. It was because, after discovering Fang Huairan's improper behavior, he followed Lu Fang's advice and played along with the scheme.
This time, if the battle at Xia Hua Bank could be decisively won.
Then not only would Liu Sandao and Fu Ruhai be eliminated, but the entire soul spirit army would receive tremendous sustenance, becoming a special force that even heavenly soldiers and generals could not defeat.
As long as the soul spirits could absorb more cash, their ability to withstand attacks and their offensive capabilities would be more than ten times greater than they were now.
At that time, the heavenly soldiers and generals would become utterly useless to the Heavenly Court.
Na Qianlai's voice attracted Liu Sandao's attention.
Upon seeing Bai Suxiang struggling with a soul spirit, he rushed towards Bai Suxiang in a panic.
Unfortunately, he was a step too late.
Bai Suxiang was ensnared by Na Qianlai's magic.
"Na Qianlai, you damned wretch! If you have the guts, come at us. What kind of hero is it to deal with a weak woman who can't even lift a chicken!"
Fu Ruhai cursed, hoping to exert pressure through words and make him stay away from Bai Suxiang.
"Hahaha, you? You expect to save the damsel in distress? See, she's right here with me. If you have the guts, come and take her back!"
Na Qianlai said disdainfully, looking at Fu Ruhai and Liu Sandao.
At this moment, Jia Sidao was fully engaged in blocking the soul spirit army from storming the secret chamber of Xia Hua Bank.
Zhao Qiansun was fighting a group of soul spirits, and the other heavenly soldiers and generals were all engaged in combat with soul spirits, unable to disengage for the moment. Sud an novel network
"Let her go, Na Qianlai! If you dare, we'll settle all our scores today!"
Liu Sandao shouted sternly.
"Hahaha, interesting. Then I'll settle with you! But before that, let's discuss what this chick is worth!"
Na Qianlai said, pointing at Bai Suxiang, whom he controlled.
Bai Suxiang was being restrained by Na Qianlai's magic, and a slight application of power would be fatal.
"What do you want?"
"What do I want? Is that even a question? As long as you can get them to open the secret chamber door of Xia Hua Bank, I'll release her immediately!"
Upon hearing Na Qianlai's words, Liu Sandao fell into contemplation.
Trading Bai Suxiang's life for the safety of the secret chamber was something Jia Sidao would not do, nor would Zhao Qiansun.
Because what was involved was far more significant.
"Ah!"
Bai Suxiang suddenly let out a scream.
Liu Sandao looked up, and Fu Ruhai also turned towards Bai Suxiang, cursing,
"Na Qianlai, you're a beast! How can you bear to lay hands on a young woman!"
