Chapter 1157: Xuanwu Sect, Xuan Yun Piao!
Xu Hao shook his head slightly and said, "That won't achieve the desired effect. The Mao family wants to increase their own reputation by suppressing us, and we hope for the same. In that case, we should magnify the situation as much as possible, make the influence of this matter reach its peak, and then we present the evidence."
"To maximize the effect?" Qin Yao asked.
"Exactly, if they want to use us, then they shouldn't blame us for using them," Xu Hao laughed lightly.
The internet was still abuzz with discussions, and the next day, at Dong Jiang City's Drug Inspection Station, under the supervision of officials from the drug inspection departments of Tiannan Province, Jiangnan Province, and Miaojiang Province, a total of two hundred tuberculosis volunteers of similar severity received free treatment.
Although they were just volunteers, Xu Liu Group still promised that if anyone developed any issues, they would compensate them with at least one million, forcing the Mao family to make the same promise.
Clinical trials were proceeding tensely and orderly, with relevant officials from the drug inspection departments of the three provinces divided into three shifts, monitoring these two hundred volunteers around the clock without any blind spots, ensuring the whole process was fair, just, and open.
Time was passing slowly, and every morning, many people's first task was to check the health data of the two hundred volunteers released by officials from the drug inspection departments of the three provinces.
Many people found that the average improvement rates of the health data of one hundred volunteers each from Xu Liu Group and the Mao family were almost identical!
This indicated that the efficacy of their drugs was practically the same!
Could it be that one of them really copied the other?
Everyone fell into an intense discussion.
Later, the official Huaya Forum even initiated a vote, asking people to support whether it was Xu Liu Group or the Mao family who first developed the drug.
Undoubtedly, as the Mao family was the first to release the news, their supporters were particularly numerous, reaching as high as seventy-seven percent!
In contrast, Xu Liu Group had only twenty-three percent.
The difference between them was huge, and this was despite the fact that Xu Liu Group already had an excellent public foundation, if they didn't have such a foundation, the gap would be even larger!
The situation was gradually reaching a boiling point.
…
Liuguang Villa.
In an exceptionally grand and magnificent hall, a man in his late twenties or early thirties, carrying an air of authority without anger, was reclining on a throne. Beside him were two graceful young women massaging his back and shoulders, utterly relaxed.
When two Grandmaster Level experts returned and reported, the man's anger suddenly surged, scaring the two young women into immediately prostrating on the ground, begging for their lives.
The man snorted coldly, "Xu Hao has dared to slight me, the sect leader, then don't blame me for not showing him respect! Does he really think he's invincible?"
A Grandmaster Level expert immediately said, "Sect leader, Xu Hao's strength is unfathomable. Although he is not your opponent, he must not be underestimated. If you engage with him, you must be extremely careful."
This man was none other than the Black Turtle Sect's leader, Xuan Yun Piao!
Xuan Yun Piao stood up and looked into the distance, saying coldly, "I naturally won't confront him myself. Xu Hao's strength is evident to all. While I do not fear him, taking something from his grasp is challenging. However, since the Fengyi Sword has emerged, I believe the crazy women from the Vermilion Bird Sect would be quite interested in it, right?"
Upon hearing Xuan Yun Piao's words, the two Grandmaster Level experts exchanged glances and immediately saw the shock in each other's eyes.
The sect leader actually wants to use the Fengyi Sword to lure that group of crazy women out!
They are a truly insane bunch, acting without scruples and entirely according to their whims, perfectly inheriting the irritable nature of the Vermilion Bird Sect, causing endless headaches.
Even the generally good-tempered members of the Black Turtle Sect don't have many who wish to deal with them.
Fortunately, they retreated from the world long ago, leaving few rumors about them.
But if that group were to emerge again, then the people of the White Tiger War God Sect would surely follow, and by then, the Martial Arts World would be unsettled once more!
Xuan Yun Piao saw the shock in the two men's eyes and smiled, "I certainly won't be foolish enough to alarm those crazy women yet. Unless it's absolutely necessary, I won't do that. Isn't Xu Hao on the global assassination list? Then we'll just pay and have those assassin organizations kill him for us. All we want is the Xuanwu Undying Bone."
"Having others assassinate Xu Hao for us? Doesn't that seem a bit..." a Grandmaster Level expert hesitated.
"You guys are still too stuck in outdated ways of thinking. What times are we living in now? Are we still to be restricted by those old thoughts? We pay others to do the job for us, and you think that would be shameful?" Xuan Yun Piao said exasperatedly.
