Chapter 240 A Retribution Well-Deserved
Three days later.
Inside the interrogation room, Song Jun was spacing out. He used to be a quick-thinking person, but now he resembled an Alzheimer patient, often getting distracted. In the past three days, the intervals of his headaches had been growing shorter. Each time his headache acted up, he would be in immense torment. One of the worst cases was when he was in so much pain that he became incontinent.
Outside the interrogation room, Wu Wenbo and a few colleagues were watching Song Jun through the window. Chen Zhengyi had arrived as well, bringing him with a neurologist and a nurse.
"President Chen, is it possible to find out what's wrong with him?" Wu Wenbo asked.
Chen Zhengyi said, "No. There was no trace of toxins in his blood stream, but his brain is deteriorating. We are unable to find the root cause, so we are unable to treat him. I'm guessing that he won't be able to live until the opening of the court session."

Dusk was falling; the last light of the day touched the Sword Pavilion Village. The trees and houses were dyed in shimmering gold, making the Sunshine Orphanage truly living up to its name. The children were playing in the sunset, their laughter was bright and crisp. Clunk clunk clunk... Ge Ming banged against a basin he was holding to, shouting, "Time to eat! Let's eat!" The children swarmed towards the canteen. A newcomer boy fell down and started wailing out loud. Li Xiaoyu stood beside the little boy, speaking in a mature manner, "You're a boy, you have to get up by yourself after falling down. But if you give me 50 cents, I can help you up." "I have no money, boohoo..." the little boy wailed even louder. "The most painful thing in the world is to be penniless," Li Xiaoyu shook her head and walked away. From afar, Ning Tao was watching as he smiled wryly and shook his head. He could

Several flashlights were shining at it, slowly unveiling the "black cover" of this ancient ruin, long buried underground. It was like an old man who had died a peaceful death. Ning Tao took Qing Zhui, Bai Jing and Yin Molan to this palace to start exploring the ruins. Since he had been here before, he acted as their "guide." But this tour guide knew nothing at all about this ancient underground city, its history or its culture. In fact, although it was the second time he was visiting this place, he still felt a strong surprise and bewilderment over the city. "Brother Ning, what's up there?" As they strolled, Yin Molan flashed the flashlight above at the overhead sky. They could just about make out the sky and nothing else. Ning Tao answered, "It's a valley up there, the territory of the Shennongjia primitives." "The Shennongjia primitives? Let's go up and take a look." Bai Jing showed her strong curiosity. Ning Ta
A Mortal's Journey to Immortality Chapter 243 Still in Fright
In the Sword Pavilion Cave. Qing Zhui was curled up in Ning Tao's arms, incessantly shivering. Her face was pale not only because of the oppressive aura of Sky Clinic, but also thanks to the fright caused by that "blood-red tide of insects." In fact, she was not the only one. Both Yin Molan and Bai Jing were still in trepidation. Those blood-red insects resembling spiders with dragonfly's wings had caused terror in the depths of their souls. Ning Tao's cultivation was the lowest of the four, yet he was the first one to recover. He clasped Qing Zhui tightly in his arms, consoling her and using his special spiritual power to help her recover. "It's all over now, it's all over. Don't worry." Qing Zhui buried her face in his chest, like a child suffering a great fright. "What are those insects?" Bai Jing finally came to herself. She was now rather polite to Yin Molan. "Do you know, Senior Yin?" Yin Molan

The temperature had dropped drastically on the mountaintop. In some places, there was even frozen ice. The odor of Tang Zixian and her archaeological colleagues had weakened, but he could still determine the direction in which they had left. She and the other archaeologists were heading for the chasm at the foot of the mountain. Ning Tao stared in the direction of the deep chasm, furrowing his brows. His heart was wondering. "I have stayed in Shan City these few days and these fellows must have located the deep chasm by following the river. If they knew what horrors they would encounter at the bottom, would they be as enthusiastic as they were before?" After descending the mountain, he arrived at the belt of the forest midway up the mountain. The odor of Tang Zixian and her archaeological team had become stronger. On the ground, too, were their clearly discernible tracks. There were footprints and even signs of someone stumbling. There were

Dense, sultry air was in the forest. The river by the hot spring was flowing in the direction of a precipice. By the river, the mosses which were spiritual materials were still there and not yet destroyed. In the near distance, the "floral field" bearing several dozen Flowers of the Night was also there. They had not been uprooted yet. These armed men were obviously not here for spiritual materials. They were here for the Feminine-moon City under the precipice. From his earlier observations, there were no demons or practitioners among these men, but they were well-trained mercenaries. They obviously had not realized the spiritual value of these Flowers of the Night or mosses by the river. Ning Tao soon came to the edge of the precipice. An armed man was at the precipice, holding an M16 assault rifle. He poked out his head and glanced down the precipice. A rope was tethered to a tree trunk by his side. The rope was taut and someone was fastened to it.

One of the two armed men who were guarding the hostage was watching Tang Zixian, and the other was staring at Ning Tao who was coming at them. In his eyes, Ning Tao was just a nameless comrade with only a code name. "Why did you come back?" The black soldier looked at Ning Tao and asked. Ning Tao said, "Chief told me to bring a hostage. That hole is so damn dark down there and we don't know if there's poison gas there. It's better to let a hostage down there." What he said made sense perfectly, and the soldier couldn't find any flaws. However, his accent was a giveaway and he couldn't have solved the problem in such a short period. That being said, the black soldier was apparently not someone observative. He casually said, "So who will you bring over? I think you should bring that guy. He looks tough." "I think so too," said Ning Tao. While he walked, he put his right hand on his right side. Blade of the Solar Ecl
A Mortal's Journey to Immortality Chapter 247 New Question
As for if Tang Zixian came from the Tang family, Ning Tao really didn't have an answer in his heart. He was just speculating and Yin Molan hadn't offered enough evidence to support his guess. Therefore, in such a case, he couldn't let her die. Furthermore, Tang Zixian and Tu Wenjin had risked their lives to cover him while he was trying to save others. Even if Tang Zixian really was from the Tang family and would become his opponent in the future, he would rather face her in broad daylight and defeat her in one blow. It shouldn't be like this. To watch her die would be like burning the bridge after crossing it, and he was never that type of person. "Grab the rope and follow me." Ning Tao's voice rang out from the dark. Tang Zixian and Tu Wenjin picked themselves up from the ground, grabbed the rope, and walked into the dark. "Doctor Ning, where are you?" Tu Wenjin asked nervously. It was dark in the cave and he couldn't see Nin

"Ma Tongtong! Ma Tongtong!" Yang Chen called out Ma Tongtong's name and stretched out his hands, gripping Ma Tongtong's arm and shaking it. He tried to wake her up by calling her name. But Ma Tongtong did not react at all. Then Yang Chen said worriedly, "Doctor Ning, save her, quick. She is about to die!" Ning Tao took out a porcelain vial and two merit of good intention prescription pacts. He also had a neutral pen with him as he approached Ma Tongtong and Yang Chen. He grabbed hold of Ma Tongtong's wrist and injected a whiff of special spiritual power into her body. "Oh..." Ma Tongtong woke up again. But she seemed very weak. Yang Chen looked at Ning Tao with astonished eyes. He thought that saving Ma Tongtong would be a complicated and dangerous process. He had not expected such ease— it was so easy that he could not believe his eyes. Ning Tao said, "Both of your lives are in danger. I can save yo
