All Chapters of A Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Knock! Knock! Knock! All sounds in the room died away when the glass was knocked. "Guys, I'm a worker in this quarry," Ning Tao claimed loudly. "My boss said it was too hot and he asked me to bring you some iced beer. Can you open the window for me?" No one in the room responded. "It's weird. I heard someone speak just now. Why is there no sound now?" Ning Tao muttered. "Damn, forget it. I can have this stewed duck all by myself." "Wait a minute." Someone in the room finally answered. After that there were footsteps behind the window, and then the sound of opening the window latch. Ning Tao suddenly got nervous, clenching tightly the rock in his right hand. It was, after all, the first time he had ever done anything like this, and it related to Su Ya's life. Thus, no matter how good his psychological quality was, he would be tense. The window opened a little and a bald hea

The smell of blood filled the small room. The man with a scarred face and the bald man were dead. Both had their carotid arteries cut open, bleeding all over the floor. It was not hard to imagine the situation— Brother Meng entered the door and found the hostage gone, while two of his people were lying unconscious on the ground. Without hesitation, he pulled out his knife and cut the two men's necks. This was murder. "Do you know what kind of man you're dealing with? How dangerous it was! If you weren't lucky, you and the girl would be lying on the ground!" Jiang Hao broke the silence between her and Ning Tao. Ning Tao's mood didn't fluctuate a bit as he heard such words in such an environment. He was a go-between of good and evil who had both good and evil spiritual roots. His ability to adapt to such scenes was beyond the ordinary imagination. "Promise me you won't act rashly again, okay?" Jiang Hao said.

Two police cars roared up and stopped in front of the Second Paris. The doors of the cars opened at the same time, and eight uniformed policemen got out and gathered around a middle-aged man. Shen Jun strode over to them. The middle-aged man was Captain Chen, who Shen Jun had mentioned, His name was Chen Guojun, and he was the police captain of this precinct. "Hi, Captain Chen," Shen Jun greeted Chen Guojun. Chen Guojun nodded politely and respectfully asked, "Young Master Shen, how's the former director these days? I haven't seen him for a while and I miss him." "My dad is fine. He's just a little bored because he's retired and has nothing to do," Shen Jun replied. "The day before yesterday, he talked about you with me. He said he wanted to recommend you to the superior. You know, my dad's retired, but his connections remain. What's more, my uncle is still in the municipal party committee. You can r

The moment the lights went out, Ning Tao turned his eyes to the door of the office, but it was so dark that he couldn't see anything. "What happened?" Lin Qingyu momentarily got nervous. Ning Tao suddenly realized that something was wrong. He hurriedly put the capsule back into the cut bluish "clay" and put it in his pants pocket. Whistling! Suddenly there was a sound of wind. An unprecedented strong sense of crisis came over Ning Tao in a flash! He instinctively ducked aside the moment he heard the wind. He moved extremely quick, yet it was still a little slower. Bang! A fist hit Ning Tao, and the terrible force sent him flying and he slammed into the wall behind the desk before he bounced back to the floor. Intense pain spread through every nerve of his body, and it made him suspect that his chest was like a piece of glass that fell on the floor and broke!

The four bodies lay in a field of medicine on the hillside. The dead were all young, under 30 years old. One of the dead men, whose clothes were stripped away, was about the same size as the old man. It was not hard to speculate that the old man killed the four security guards and then took off one of the dead men's clothes and disguised himself as a security guard. "The killer was supposed to look for that thing as well, and he didn't seem to anticipate me and Lin Qingyu coming over. He probably also wanted to kill us as he came to us then, but as he learnt Lin Qingyu's identity, he changed his mind. When I found what was hidden in the painting, he turned off the light switch and attacked us," Ning Tao told Jiang Hao of his analysis. Jiang Hao frowned slightly and said, "Qiu Meng who kidnapped Su Ya and the old man who showed up here tonight aren't from the same force." Ning Tao was filled with surprise and curiosity. "Do you mean there's a
