Chapter 520: Chapter 520: Tang Ming’s Ruthlessness

Hearing this, Sun Zhuangjia’s face also turned solemn, pinning all hopes on the Poison Sect.

Tang Ming had been living quite comfortably these days; after squandering most of the Poison Sect’s stock of poison, he spent his days in Yunhai Court with Yan Dujiu, concocting formidable poisons.

At first, Xin Badao and Chu Batian were very unhappy with Tang Ming wasting the Poison Sect’s poisons, but later, when Tang Ming and Yan Dujiu actually managed to develop many poisons stronger than the Myriad Poison Pill, the two guys immediately beamed with joy.

With Tang Ming as the test subject, Yan Dujiu had developed quite a few poisons more toxic than the Myriad Poison Pill, which were enough to compensate for the Poison Sect’s previous losses.

Of course, those poisons were all handed over to the Poison Sect for safekeeping only after Tang Ming had had his fill of them, because he knew that killing the goose that laid the golden eggs would be detrimental. Only by allowing the Poison Sect to continue to grow and strengthen would he be able to indefinitely enjoy satisfactory poisons.

Today, just as Tang Ming stepped out of the laboratory after being a test subject, Long Duba greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Why are you here?"

As Tang Ming wiped his face with a towel, he looked puzzledly at Long Duba, "Has something happened in Songlan City?"

Though Tang Ming hadn’t returned to Songlan City, he had tasked Long Duba to keep an eye on the situation there. Upon learning that aside from the injuries of the Zhou and Ma family elders and the incident with the Minghuang Group, all other key figures were safe and sound, he wasn’t in a hurry to return. He wanted to consume more poisons here to enhance his cultivation before doing so.

"Poison Leader, there is new information from Songlan."

Long Duba grinned and whispered, "Qin Aotian called me, asking me to go there and help them research a medicine that could replace the Detoxification Liquid."

"Replace the Detoxification Liquid?"

Tang Ming chuckled sinisterly; he was aware of Minghuang Group’s Detoxification Liquid being out of stock, and that the Qin, Yang, and Sun families had all fallen into this big pit.

The reason he wasn’t in a hurry to go back was that he wanted Qin Aotian and the rest to be trapped for a while longer. He was confident that no matter how much money that bunch invested, they couldn’t possibly develop a medicine similar to the Detoxification Liquid. But where had the remaining stock of the Detoxification Liquid gone?

"Yes, it seems that the Sun Family is unable to research a product that can replace the Detoxification Liquid, so they have turned to me for help."

Long Duba reported truthfully and nervously asked, "What should I do now?"

"Can you develop a product that can replace the Detoxification Medicine?"

Tang Ming dropped the towel and squinted as he asked.

"We’ve tried that before, but with the Poison Sect’s technology, we can’t develop a product with effects as miraculous as the Detoxification Liquid. We can produce a less effective substitute, but its side effects are quite severe,"

replied Long Duba honestly.

"Good, if that’s the case, then you should go," said Tang Ming, suddenly laughing.

"Ah? Although the Detoxification Medicine I develop has side effects, it can still achieve a certain detoxification effect. If we really launch it on the market, the response should still be pretty good."

Long Duba paused slightly and asked in confusion, "Those people stole your company, why are you still allowing me to help them out of their predicament?"

"Heh heh, I never said I’d let you help them out of their predicament. I’m telling you to go and cause destruction, and it’d be best if you could bring down all three families in one go."

Tang Ming revealed a cunning smile, mischievously reminding him.

"What do you mean by that?"

Long Duba looked at Tang Ming with a puzzled expression.

"A rotten wood cannot be carved, indeed!"

Tang Ming let out a sigh, then whispered into Long Duba’s ear.

"Brilliant!" Long Duba’s eyes suddenly widened with excitement and he exclaimed,

"If this plan succeeds, then the Qin Family’s medical industry will be utterly destroyed, and the Sun Family will surely suffer a severe blow to their vitality. As for the Yang Family, if their ambition is great enough, I guess they will also suffer a heavy loss."

"I, Tang Ming, either don’t make a move, but once I do, I make sure it cripples them; first, I’ll crush them in the business arena, and then I will return to overpower them with my strength."

Tang Ming yawned and reminded, "Don’t forget to ask them for a fee, they’re a herd of fat sheep; it’s a waste not to fleece them."

"Got it, got it, I’ve already quoted ten million." Long Duba said with a giggle,

"I will definitely hand over every penny to the Sect, without embezzling a cent."

"So lacking in ambition." Tang Ming gave Long Duba a look of contempt and said with frustration,

"Any one of those three Families has assets of several billions, and you’re only asking for ten million? You’re too easily satisfied."

"So what should I do now? Should I raise the price?" There was a twitch at the corner of Long Duba’s mouth, originally thinking that quoting ten million was already quite a lot, only to be looked down upon by Tang Ming.

"No need!" Tang Ming said with narrowed eyes,

"You turn that ten million over to the Sect. I’ll teach you a way to make even more money."

"Please enlighten me, Poison Master." Long Duba hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

After that, Tang Ming began mumbling into Long Duba’s ear again.

After hearing Tang Ming’s idea, Long Duba was utterly convinced that even a casual thought from Tang Ming made more money than he could by haggling laboriously.

"Go, and don’t disappoint me." Tang Ming patted Long Duba’s shoulder and said with a smile,

"When you’ve completely brought down the Minghuang Group, that will be the moment for my return to Songlan and a rising anew from East Mountain."

"Rest assured, Poison Master, I will not fail the mission,"

Long Duba nodded fiercely, then left with a determined face.

"Qin Family, Yang Family, and Sun Family... the things belonging to me, Tang Ming, are all poisoned; you dared to take over my company while I was away, this time I will make sure you lose everything."

Watching Long Duba’s retreating figure, Tang Ming smiled lightly.

In fact, Tang Ming had a question that he hadn’t figured out yet: before he left Songlan, he had already left enough Detoxification Liquid for Minghuang Group to produce for several years, so why would Qin Aotian and the others run out of stock so soon after taking over the company?

Tang Ming didn’t know that Zhou Jian, whom he had randomly picked up off the street, had, in order to protect Minghuang Group, painfully poured out all the Detoxification Liquid he had left, thinking it must have been hidden by the Zhou Family or the Ma Family, he didn’t think much of it.

The next morning, a group of top executives from the New Minghuang Group, led by Qin Aotian, waited at the exit of Songlan City train station.

"Uncle Qin, can we really trust the person from Poison Sect?" Jack looked anxiously at Qin Aotian and said worriedly,

"The person hasn’t even arrived yet, and they dare to charge us thirty million. Isn’t that too extortionate?"

"Alas, that’s after I negotiated." Qin Aotian let out a sigh and said helplessly,

"I heard they’ve researched the Detoxification Liquid before and are confident about producing a substitute, that’s why they’re making such an outlandish demand."
