Chapter 217: Chapter 208, Ling Ying’s Disappointment (Second Update)

"My hand..."

Wei Leng let out a terrified scream.

Yang Tian’s heart skipped a beat. He looked towards Wei Leng, only to see that Wei Leng’s arm was covered with a plethora of small red bubbles.

The bubbles were so densely packed that it made one’s scalp tingle.

"Big brother..."

Not only Wei Leng, but also He Shang and Hao Ren let out cries of pain.

They took off all their clothes, exposing the skin underneath.

On their bodies, it was densely covered with red bubbles, incredibly frightening.

"Huang Jian, what is this!"

Yang Tian stared tightly at Huang Jian, clenching his fist.

"Eh, why are you okay?"

Huang Jian looked at Yang Tian with confusion.

"What exactly is wrong with me? What did you do?"

Yang Tian shouted angrily.

This Huang Jian had poisoned Yang Tian’s people, now beyond redemption.

"Hmph! What did I do? You were so interested in how I resurrected my grandson, weren’t you? It’s this kind of potion, capable of bringing the dead back to life, and making the living die at the same time!" Huang Jian waved the potion in his hand: "This is what our Evil Moon Organization is after!"

"Was the previous jade statue filled with this potion?"

Yang Tian asked solemnly.

"That’s right, the previous jade statue was filled with this potion. I warned you not to break it, but you didn’t listen. It’s just strange to me, why are you okay?"

A trace of doubt flickered in Huang Jian’s eyes.

"Bastard!"

Yang Tian cursed and rushed towards Huang Jian, about to unleash a punch.

But at this moment, Huang Jian’s body suddenly exploded, scattered into rays of light.

"Haha, you want to kill me? This is just my spirit image! My real body is still in the laboratory!"

Huang Jian’s voice rang out.

"Bastard, it won’t be long before it’s your turn to die!"

Yang Tian said coldly.

Immediately, he didn’t rush to find Huang Jian but returned to observe the situation of Wei Leng and the others.

Seeing the skin of Wei Leng and the others continuously changing, the red bubbles growing larger, Yang Tian realized the danger.

"Big brother, what’s happening?"

Huang Xiaoyi was terrified, his face pale and bloodless.

"Xiaoyi, don’t look..."

Ling Ying seemed to understand the horror that would follow and hugged Huang Xiaoyi tightly.

Yang Tian then looked at Ling Ying: "Do you have any antidote?"

"Antidote? I don’t have an antidote..."

Ling Ying shook her head quickly.

"No, you must have an antidote! You gave me a drink before, and I’m okay because I drank your drink!"

Yang Tian said solemnly.

"Maybe..."

Ling Ying nodded, reluctant to say more.

"Now, something has happened to my brothers. Do you have any more antidote?"

Yang Tian asked urgently.

"No, I only had one bottle of antidote, enough to save one person..."

Ling Ying said faintly, her expression somewhat indifferent.

As if in her eyes, only Yang Tian’s life mattered, the life and death of Wei Leng and the others had nothing to do with her.

Yang Tian felt Ling Ying’s indifference for the first time, kicking over a stone platform beside him, trying to use Spiritual Breath to save Wei Leng and the others. But he discovered that funneling Spiritual Breath into them only worsened their condition.

"Big brother, don’t worry about us... Just kill Huang Jian... avenge us..."

Hao Ren said tremblingly.

Yang Tian felt awful hearing it.

Half a year ago, he watched Brother die before his eyes. Would he have to watch Wei Leng and the others die today?

Yang Tian clenched his fist tightly.

"It’s useless. They’re already dead! This potion was developed by the Evil Moon Organization, and so far, it’s only worked on animals. Xiaoyi’s revival is the only successful case, but its effect on living people only leads to death!"

Ling Ying’s voice was very calm.

"Get lost!"

Yang Tian pushed Ling Ying aside.

He operated the X-ray Vision Technique to probe into his own body, discovering that the drink Ling Ying had given him hadn’t been fully absorbed.

Ignoring everything, he channeled Spiritual Breath into his abdomen.

Spiritual Breath quickly combined with the antidote.

Soon, Yang Tian was delighted to see that Spiritual Breath and antidote combined, forming a liquid.

He didn’t know if this liquid was effective, but now Yang Tian could only try anything to remedy the situation.

He used Spiritual Breath to envelop the liquid, directing it into Wei Leng, He Shang, and Hao Ren’s bodies.

Soon, a miracle occurred.

The three who were lying on the ground in pain, their skin malformed and on the verge of dying, suddenly calmed down.

The red bubbles on their bodies quickly disappeared and in a while, returned to their original appearance.

"It worked!"

Yang Tian repeated the process, steadily using Spiritual Breath to apply the antidote, directing it into Wei Leng, He Shang, and Hao Ren’s bodies.

"What’s happening?"

A trace of surprise flashed in Ling Ying’s eyes.

Logically, Wei Leng and the others should be doomed after contact with the potion.

But how did Yang Tian manage to heal these three?

Watching their condition improve, Ling Ying couldn’t help but ask: "Yang, how did you do it?"

"Don’t call me Yang, you’re not qualified! If it weren’t for you giving me the antidote, I’d have killed you long ago!"

Yang Tian said coldly.

Ling Ying felt a pang in her heart, and she fell silent.

She knew Yang Tian was cursing her because of her indifference.

In fact, ever since she was five years old, she had lived a life neither like the living nor the dead.

Compassion was the most inexpensive thing for her.

She gave Yang Tian the antidote because she had feelings for him.

But for the life and death of Wei Leng and the others, Ling Ying cared not a bit.

If she had distributed the drink among Yang Tian and the other four before, they could have lasted a few hours, but she only intended for Yang Tian to survive.

Now, hearing Yang Tian’s curses towards her, inexplicably, her heart ached.

"Big brother, we’re okay now..."

Wei Leng, He Shang, and Hao Ren got up from the ground, their faces pale and bloodless, but no longer in life-threatening danger.

"Let’s go, find Huang Jian!"

Yang Tian said coldly.

"Yang, wait for us..."

Ling Ying pulled Huang Xiaoyi forward.

Yang Tian turned around and looked at Ling Ying coldly.

Ling Ying’s face turned somewhat pale, and she quickly said, "I know where their laboratory is!"

"What else do you know?"

Yang Tian asked coldly.

"Nothing else..."

Ling Ying carefully shook her head.

"Hmph!"

Yang Tian snorted coldly, for the first time feeling that Ling Ying was definitely not a simple person; she was cold and mysterious.

But right now, finding Huang Jian was the most important, so he had to let Ling Ying lead the way.

"This way..."

With Ling Ying leading the way, Yang Tian and the others walked through a passage and entered a laboratory.

"Who are you?"

Inside the laboratory was a group of men and women in white lab coats.

They became anxious when they saw these unexpected guests.

"Don’t be nervous, I’ve brought you a master! He can cure the side effects of the drug and also save those affected by it!"

Ling Ying hurriedly said.

"What did you say?!!"

Everyone in the laboratory froze, staring at Ling Ying.

An elderly researcher stepped forward: "I’m the head of this laboratory. My name is Wu Tian. What did you just say? He can remove the side effects of the drug? And save those affected? Are you not talking nonsense? The TC9 drug was developed under my leadership, but so far, it only works on animals and leaves side effects. If it touches a human, they’ll die within three minutes!"

"Then take a look, who is this!"

Ling Ying pushed Huang Xiaoyi forward.

"He... isn’t he the number one test subject? My God, he’s actually alive!!!"

Everyone in the lab exclaimed.

Wu Tian fixed his gaze on Huang Xiaoyi: "Impossible, impossible. We’ve tested on humans thousands of times, and none survived. How did he come back to life? Even if he did, there must be side effects!"

"We don’t know how he survived, but one thing is certain—his brain has been cleared of the residual liquid!"

Ling Ying said proudly.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"You can check!"

Ling Ying sneered.

Wu Tian immediately gestured, and a few men and women stepped forward, taking Huang Xiaoyi for a check. Soon, the results came out: "Not only is he alive, but the toxins in his brain have also been cleared!"

"How did you do it?"

Wu Tian stared at Yang Tian.

"Who are you people? Researching drugs here just to harm others?"

Yang Tian didn’t answer and instead asked back.

"I asked you, how did you do it?"

Wu Tian asked persistently.

"I did it casually."

Yang Tian said indifferently.

"You!" For a moment, Wu Tian’s face turned grim, very displeased, but he asked, "Besides that, can you save those affected by the drug?"

Yang Tian looked a bit impatient.

"Yes, he indeed saved those affected by the drug!"

Seeing Yang Tian’s impatience, Ling Ying quickly said.

"Very good, very good!" Wu Tian stared deeply at Yang Tian: "We spent five years and still developed nothing, yet you arrived and achieved our goal! Very good, very good!"

"I don’t care about your nonsense, I only want to know where Huang Jian is?"

Yang Tian asked in a deep voice.

Hearing Yang Tian’s words, Wu Tian looked even more displeased.

Ling Ying couldn’t help but tug on Yang Tian’s sleeve: "Yang, show him some respect. He’s Huaxia’s most renowned brain expert!"

"In my eyes, he’s nothing but a piece of crap! Using living people for experiments, developing a drug that causes death, is a crime deserving of death!"

Yang Tian said coldly.

"You..."

Wu Tian’s face flared with anger, but just then, a cold voice interrupted: "Yang Tian, watch your mouth. Dr. Wu is someone I spent billions to invite over!"

"Huang Jian, you’re out!"

Just then, an old man emerged from the laboratory behind, none other than Huang Jian himself.

At this moment, Huang Jian was holding Huang Xiaoyi.

Huang Xiaoyi had been sedated and was very calm, just playing with the paper crane Yang Tian had given him.

Behind Huang Jian, there were two strong men holding a woman hostage.

That woman was actually Wang Ying.

Seeing Wang Ying, Yang Tian’s face turned dark: "Old Ghost Huang, you’re fast. It didn’t even take a few hours for you to capture my people!"

"Yang Tian, you choose to walk into hell!"

Huang Jian waved his hand.

The two strong men behind him immediately drew guns, coldly aiming at Wang Ying’s head.

"Yang Tian, what’s happening? I was just shopping with Tingting and the others when they captured me. Yang Tian, be honest with me, what’s going on?"

Wang Ying, being the chairwoman of the Ma Xun Group, showed the calm and composure befitting a president even in the face of death.

"President Wang, don’t be afraid!"

Yang Tian waved his hand and a bank card flew out, hitting the strong man on the wrist.

The black pistol fell to the ground.

Wei Leng, He Shang, and Hao Ren were about to charge forward, but at that moment, Huang Jian sternly threatened: "Take one more step, and I’ll order the hostage to be killed!"

Immediately, everyone stopped.

Yang Tian took a step forward.

"Yang Tian, stop right now. Do you really want to test whether your speed is faster or our bullet is?"

Huang Jian said sternly.

The two strong men behind him had cold expressions; the one on the left had his gun slapped down, but the one on the right still had his aimed at Wang Ying.

In the midst of this tense silence, a gunshot suddenly rang out.

Bang!

A bullet struck Huang Jian violently.

Everyone turned to look, shocked, and Huang Jian’s face changed: "You... you actually want to kill me..."

There, behind them, stood a young boy, none other than Huang Xiaoyi.

And it was Huang Xiaoyi who had just fired the shot...
