All Chapters of A Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

It was dark outside and the wind rustled the treetops. The sound masked many other subtle sounds, including Su Ya's footsteps. Finally, Su Yay came up to Ning Tao's side, and the kitchen knife in her right hand was close to his neck. Ning Tao suddenly turned around, clasped Su Ya by the right wrist, and yanked her into his arms. Before Su Ya could let out a scream, he covered her mouth with his left hand. At that moment, he leaned over to Su Ya's ear and whispered, "It's me. Be quiet." Su Ya went rigid, not knowing what to do. She couldn't make out Ning Tao's face, but she recognized his voice. She couldn't figure out why Ning Tao was in her room at dead of night. She got nervous as she thought of them alone in this room late at night, and smelled his male hormones. Meanwhile various conjectures crossed her mind. In this subtle and tense moment, a man suddenly appeared out of the window. He peered into the room and then stuck a

A day later. A dozen masons were busy in the Sunshine Orphanage, repairing or installing sports equipment for children, such as swings, treadmills and wooden horses. The children were so happy that they scrambled to play on the swing that had been installed. Fortunately, Ge Ming kept the order, asking them to queue up, and then he pushed them in turn, which solved the disputes among the children. Su Ya and Ning Tao helped Ge Ming trim vegetables, like Ipomoea aquaticas and cowpeas, and they had trimmed a big pile. The night before was history, and Su Ya had come out of the horror of that night. After all, she was not the kind of girl who grew up under the love and care of her parents. She was a wild girl with great resilience. Today, however, she looked a little different—she was wearing lipstick. Her thin lips were bright red, making her, who had infantile features, look a little mature. This was the first time f

Upon seeing Lin Qinghua, Ning Tao realized he was worse off than the last time they met. His cheeks were unusually thin, but he was strangely energetic. He kept talking to himself, claiming to be the emperor and mentioning his beloved concubine and something like that. He looked like a man with a serious mental illness. He did not calm down until Lin Qingyu coaxed him to drink a glass of milk with a sleeping pill. Looking at Lin Qinghua, who fell fast asleep, Ning Tao wondered, "The ledger of bamboo slips said Sean was a new demon, but he was not in line with the characteristics of demons except for his madness. Those demons in movies and television dramas were all exceptionally formidable. They're omnipotent, able to fly and get into the ground. But Lin Qinghua even cannot resist a sleeping pill. How could he be a demon?" However, he had only seen demons in movies and television dramas, and had never seen a real one. At this moment, the "ne

Ning Tao settled into the nursing home. In the day, he studied the chapter of elixirs in the nameless medical book, and at night he used the key of the clinic and the blood lock painted on the back of the bedside table to return to the Sky Clinic for spiritual power cultivation. He had to hurry, as the date of his first payment for the Sky Clinic was getting closer. By then the good and evil energy in the good-evil tripod would be weakened, so he had to make the alchemy fire and Primary Elixirs before that, or he would be in danger. Chen Jun and his disciples had multiple consultations, examinations, and tests on Lin Qinghua's condition. However, the shadow that hung over Chen Jun and his disciples grew heavier. They had done the physical examinations that were supposed to be done and had the discussions that they were supposed to have, but they hadn't even figured out the cause of Lin Qinghua's illness, let alone come up with an effective treatment plan.

Lin Qinghua seemed to fall into a deep reverie, his face anguished. "I'm not sure. It's like, like... a cemetery, a very remote cemetery... I dug a grave according to the man's instructions, and then I found what he said, the prescription and the spiritual soil. Then I perfected the project... Later, I tried to find the place, but... I couldn't find it anymore. And then I made two pills of ancestor seeking... I couldn't resist the temptation, and ate one of them. At first, I could be sane for a while, but gradually I had less and less time to be sane..." Suddenly, Ning Tao struck upon an idea. "Have you seen an old man? He's not tall, thin, and expert in martial arts." Lin Qinghua shook his head. "I, I don't know... Is he the one who called me anonymously?" According to Lin Qinghua, Ning Tao denied that the old martial artist was the one who called Lin Qinghua anonymously. That man was probably the boss behind the scenes. How could he possib
