Chapter 279: Chapter 279: The Five-colored Ice Silkworm_1
"Who are you? Are you sent by the Pangu Sect? Speak up!"
Ye Fei, with one hand clutching the neck of the man in black, asked in a low voice next to his ear.
"Won’t talk, huh? Well, I believe you are aware that I have ten thousand ways to make you talk."
A murderous aura emanated from Ye Fei’s eyes.
The man in black seemed to foresee the unbearable torture he was about to face, his expression darkened, and he gritted his teeth fiercely.
Then his body went limp, instantly dissolving into a puddle of blood.
Everyone was stunned by this scene, standing frozen in place with their mouths agape.
Only Ye Fei and Wang Jianglong were clear that this person must have been an assassin sent by the Pangu Sect.
"Boss Hu! What’s wrong with you? Why do you look so awful?"
Amidst the crowd, Hu Wansan suddenly collapsed.
Ye Fei stepped forward to examine him and immediately noticed a Five-colored Ice Silkworm wriggling on his neck, sucking his blood.
This was the hidden weapon that the assassin had shot out.
It seems this person must also have belonged to those under the command of the Diku Venerable.
"Boss Hu, are you alright? Eh? What is this thing?"
Someone noticed the Five-colored Ice Silkworm on Hu Wansan’s neck and just as they tried to remove it, their hand was forced back by a surge of freezing cold.
Bai Yunfei quickly realized the seriousness of the situation and turned his head, "Mr. Ye, please save Boss Wansan."
Originally, Ye Fei was not interested in whether this man lived or died.
But since the incident had arisen because of him, and considering Bai Yunfei’s face was at stake,
Ye Fei found it hard to refuse and nodded in agreement.
But before he could make a move, Hu Wansan shaking with cold, cursed, "Who needs you to treat me! What illness can Chinese medicine cure? It would be good if it doesn’t kill me! Scram, you swindler! My men have plenty of renowned doctors, what are you meddling for?"
"Quick! Get me to the hospital! Call over Dean Wang, Dean Han, all of them! I feel like I’m freezing to death!"
His subordinates quickly got several woolen blankets and wrapped Hu Wansan up tightly before preparing to carry him downstairs.
But as soon as they moved him slightly, Hu Wansan screamed in pain like a pig being slaughtered.
It was a kind of unbearable, bone-piercing, excruciating agony.
After several failed attempts, his subordinates gave up.
Bai Yunfei touched Hu Wansan’s body and shivered from the cold himself.
"It won’t do to move him anymore. Hurry up, have the doctors come over directly, bring all the medical equipment, and perform emergency treatment on the spot."
After giving orders to the people below, Bai Yunfei tried to persuade Hu Wansan patiently.
"Boss Hu, your condition is extremely dangerous right now, let Mr. Ye treat you. Otherwise..."
"I would rather die than believe he could cure me! Chinese medicine is all bullshit! Brother Yunfei, don’t let him harm me. The real Divine Doctor under my command will arrive soon, I can hold on."
Ye Fei shook his head, a cold smile on his face.
If he wanted to die, then so be it.
"Brother Wang, are you hungry? Bai Lao has prepared a lavish banquet in the back hall, how about we go have a drink?"
"Let’s have a drink."
"Bai Lao, you don’t mind, do you?"
Bai Yunfei’s lips parted dryly as he nodded.
The two men proceeded directly to the back hall.
A dozen tables filled with fine wine and food, but not a single person in sight.
The two men didn’t hold back, gobbling up food and guzzling drinks contentedly.
Meanwhile, the situation in the private room was entirely different—everyone’s hearts were in their throats.
After being treated by those Western medical Divine Doctors, not only did Hu Wansan show no signs of improvement, but his condition became even more critical.
At this moment, Hu Wansan’s body temperature had reached an unbelievable minus twenty degrees Celsius.
It was even lower than a corpse’s temperature!
His skin, muscles, and even bones had been frozen so fragile that they seemed as if they might shatter with the slightest touch.
The Western doctors were frantic.
They had exhausted all means, but none had been effective.
Now, they were attempting their last resort.
"The Ice Silkworm is the main culprit, in my opinion, we must remove it first!"
"But this thing has already adhered to Boss Hu’s carotid artery, and with such low body temperature, if we forcibly operate to separate them, the blood vessels might just burst! The consequences would be unimaginable."
"Then what do you suggest? This won’t do, that won’t do—do we just watch Boss Hu freeze to death?"
"Damn it! Then it’s got to be a do-or-die effort, hasn’t it?"
"We have to gamble!"
After some careful deliberation, the Western medical Divine Doctors finally came up with a final plan.
Surgery!
To say a Divine Doctor is a Divine Doctor, their surgical technique was truly miraculous.
In such low temperatures, they managed to excise the Ice Silkworm without damaging the aorta.
"Quick! Start warming him up! The speed must be gradual!"
After some more effort, Hu Wansan’s body temperature gradually returned to normal, and his consciousness began to clear.
In less than half an hour, he was as lively as a dragon and animated as a tiger.
The rescue was a success!
The Western doctors were more excited than one another, celebrating another medical breakthrough.
Hu Wansan, on the other hand, was even more smug.
"How about that, Brother Yunfei? I’ve told you before, Western medicine is the right way to cure diseases and save lives. Those messy Chinese remedies are nothing but a sham; now you believe it, right?"
"And that Ye Fei, he’s not a Divine Doctor at all, just a charlatan. You mustn’t be deceived by him...!! Deceived!..."
Before he could finish speaking, Hu Wansan suddenly began convulsing, with blood spurting from all his orifices.
His body temperature soared to an astonishing eighty degrees in an instant!
His blood was almost boiling.
