Chapter 240 A Retribution Well-Deserved
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Three 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

The redclothed Dan Ling flickered lightly, brushing against Ning Tao's open arm and dodging, her silver belllike laughter echoing in the empty temple space."Hee hee ...... hee hee ......"Ning Tao turned around and pounced, his movements were fast and his posture was handsome. After all, pouncing on women like this is something he is very good at, there are three objects practicing this divine skill at home, and most of the time, they can't do it without practicing, they will be forced to practice.However, even the most skillful female pouncing divine power, he also played to the extreme, the red Dan Ling is also much faster than him, saw that he was about to hold her waist, but she gently swayed and dodged again."You come ...... you come ...... hee hee ......"Your sister!Ning Tao pounced again.The redclothed danling dodged while molesting the man who tried to grab her, "You do it, you do it ......"Ning Tao pounced again and aga

Two people rolling on the ground, that posture unbearable, not at all like two people in the fight, but like a pair of horny couples reunited for a long time ......Although he didn't have a real flesh and blood body, but the feeling of spiritual awareness was even stronger than a flesh and blood body, being hugged by a female ghost and rolled around on the ground, how complicated and weird Ning Tao's feeling at this moment could be imagined."Seeds! Give me ...... seeds!" Nepona's voice trembled terribly.Ning Tao made a strong effort to press against Nepona's chest, embarrassed and nervous "Calm down a little ...... What seed?""Give me seeds ...... seeds!" Nepona repeated this sentence over and over again, desperately moving towards Ning Tao's body.On her this action, Ning Tao do not want to distort all want to distort, as a man he does not blossom nor fruit, to say that the seed is only a kind of son, but that thing is to be able to just give?

However, it was this grab that made Ning Tao instantly froze on the spot.For, instead of a mere visible phantom, he grabbed a real arm. He could feel the warmth of that arm and the elastic skin, but ......Instead, his hand penetrated past Nebonna's arm, as if the genjutsu was out of the body trying to grab something, feeling it, but not being able to grab it at all.Nepona was real, and he seemed to be just a phantom!But he was clearly real, he could feel the blood flowing through his veins, and he could feel his heartbeat, and his chest expanded with every breath he took, all of these were manifestations of flesh and blood, but he just didn't exist in this past time and space.Hard to explain!"Lost Undead, who are you?" Nepona suddenly spoke.She was still using that ancient and mysterious language, which was simply unintelligible, but through the Whisperer's conversion, Ning Tao was able to hear it clearly.Ning Tao's hand sudden
A Mortal's Journey to Immortality Chapter 615 Complete Ancestor Seeking Pill
Things were piled up under the locked walls of the Heaven's Path Medical Center, spirit materials, weapons, and that peculiar cauldron for alchemy from Nicholas Conti, among other things.Ning Tao organized and categorized the spiritual materials that he needed to use, and those modified weapons were also categorized and collected properly. He couldn't use these weapons, but he could refine them and give them to a few fish demons. With these cultivated firearms weapons with added technological components, they were like a tiger with wings. Even Soft Tianyin, who couldn't fight, she could fight with her magic firearms.As for the tripod Ning Tao didn't have the heart to study it and casually threw it in the corner. He then began to process the medicinal materials and prepare for alchemy.After planning for such a long time and not being able to gather the spirit materials for the Ancestor Seeking Pill until now, how could he resist the urge to refine the full versio

As night descended, a door of convenience opened, and Ning Tao stepped out of the dark as ink hole."My Lord." Ramsey followed, rising from the couch and calling out respectfully.Ning Tao said, "Is all the information on the person you mentioned ready?"Ramsey picked up the dossier bag placed on the coffee table and handed it to Ning Tao.Ning Tao opened the information bag and took out the information inside to check.Ramsey said, "My Lord, all the information I could get on Saric is in there."Ning Tao said while looking at it, "Will he stay at Black Sail Mansion tonight?"Ramsey said, "He is going out tonight to refill his food and will not remain in the midst of the Black Sail Mansion. My Lord, inside the dossier bag is a map that I handdrew, so you can take a look at it, and I've marked out a safer route for you."Ning Tao quickly flipped to see the handdrawn map that Ramsey had mentioned, and there was indeed a labeled route on

Ning Tao turned back, the person who called him was a white man, and there were two two companions, a black man and a Mexican descendant, all of them were not very old, roughly between thirty and forty.The Heavenly Character version of the Yin Valley Spirit Suppressing Talisman closed off all the aura related to cultivation, and also sealed the spiritual power, so Ning Tao was unable to awaken his eye's Look state to recognize the good and evil of these three people, and he was also unable to detect whether there were any weapons hidden on their bodies through his nose's Smell state. A Heavenly Character version of the Yin Valley Spirit Suppressing Talisman had turned him into an ordinary person, so when he was suddenly called out, he reacted with a bit of bewilderment and was very uncomfortable with this state of being an ordinary person.This was also one of the reasons why he transformed out to move around, he was going to enter a place like the Blackfire Corporation
A Mortal's Journey to Immortality Chapter 612 Before the Action
The darkness disappeared, and Ning Tao was already in a room when he reappeared.It was a very spartan room, not even a single piece of decent furniture or appliance, and the couch and bed in use were worn out. There were also no windows in the room, and you couldn't see outside, so there was no way to tell what kind of place this was. The only thing that could be confirmed was that this was a basement.Ramsey was sitting on a worn out sofa watching a news program, when the door of convenience opened he was startled and had an instinctive dodge reaction until he saw Ning Tao conveniently walk out of the door, then he breathed a sigh of relief.Ramsey bowed his head and called out respectfully, "My Lord."Ning Tao nodded his head a bit, also in this little bit of time he completed his reconnaissance against this environment, there was no third party in this basement other than Ramsey, and he let his guard down, "Ramsey, what is this place?"Ramsey said,

One day later.Southern sea, undersea Dragon Tomb.Under the beam of the Refined Tactical Flashlight, the huge dragon bone was presented in the dark blue sea water. It was so quiet that there wasn't even a single sound of breathing, nor was there any life present, except for Ning Tao.Ning Tao came to the skull of the True Dragon Skeleton, bent his legs and knelt down on the cold rock, and paid three obeisances before saying, "True Dragon Senior, senior here, I have come to beg for a Dragon Bone to refine the legendary Palm Pistol. I know this request is excessive, but I only know that there are dragon bones here, so I can only come to beg you. I promise you that when I use senior's dragon bone to refine the gun in the palm, I will treasure it as if it were my life, and in the future, I will definitely bring it with me to do something in the Immortal Realm. If senior agrees, then he will drop a dragon bone down himself. If it's a default, I'll come and get it mysel

The night was late and the quadrangle was quiet.A Door of Convenience opened, and before Ning Tao even came out of the Door of Convenience, Qing Zhui opened her eyes. When Ning Tao had just come out of the Door of Convenience, she had already jumped into Ning Tao's arms from her bare feet.She didn't ask Ning Tao what he had gone through, she just got tired of being in his arms. At this moment, she was not a scaly dragon, she was just a clingy folded ear cat.Ning Tao gently wrapped his arms around her and whispered in her ear, "I'll give you a gift."Qing Zhui curiously said, "What kind of gift?"Ning Tao let go of Qing Zhui and took out that Yin Valley Spirit Suppressing Talisman, handing it to Qing Zhui, "This is Tang Zixian's Yin Valley Spirit Suppressing Talisman, I managed to get my hands on it with great difficulty, try it."Qing Zhui said in surprise, "Try it here? Will it demolish the house?"Ning Tao came to her ear and said to he
