Chapter 275 So It’s You (1/2)

It was a female reporter, not tall but with a very nice figure. Her bosom and butt were large and curvaceous. Her face, on the other hand, was quite ordinary, but her black and beady eyes added to her allure. She looked most feminine.

Ning Tao had unquestionably never seen this woman before. But the odor he caught from her with his nose pointed to one person—Tang Zixian.

Ning Tao suddenly remembered the paper talisman of Tang Sect, never imparted to outsiders—the Yingu Soul-suppressing Talisman. It was the same kind of paper talisman as that “sanitary napkin”.

“So it’s you!” Ning Tao’s lips said instinctively. His right hand moved back and was about to draw out his knife.

“Don’t act rashly. If I scream, you will be in trouble. I’m not here to fight you,” Tang Zixian said.

Ning Tao brought his hand forward again. “So what do you want?”

Tang Zixian raised her camera and took another photo of the stage. “Something’s fishy here, isn’t it?”

Ning Tao said, “You know something?”

Tang Zixian said, “This hall is no place to talk. Meet me at Pier No. 17 at eight o’clock tonight. Remember: come alone. If you bring someone else with you, the meeting’s off.”

Ning Tao did not immediately agree. He was still hesitating. Tang Zixian had activated the formation outside Feminine-moon City and tried to kill him with its power. So how could he trust her so easily?

At this moment, Bai Jing shifted her gaze to his side. But she did not discover anything odd. After one glance, her eyes returned to Bai Sheng. That she could not detect Tang Zixian’s real identity was not surprising. The Yingu Soul-suppressing Talisman had sealed Tang Zixian’s spiritual energy and power. Ning Tao had not discovered any loophole in Tang Zixian’s camouflage the last time, and Bai Jing certainly could not too.

A scornful smile started to hover on Tang Zixian’s lips. “Why, afraid that I might harm you?”

Ning Tao said blandly, “I haven’t forgotten what happened under that deep chasm. You think you deserve my trust?”

A tinge of anger was in Tang Zixian’s voice. “You were the one who fired first.”

“But you were the one who first tried to kill me!” Anger could also be detected in Ning Tao’s voice.

They seemed to be creditor and debtor in their previous lives. They would quarrel each time they met, exchanging jibes.

“Can you two be quiet?” “If you want to quarrel, go outside. This is no place for you to quarrel.” By their side, a man who appeared to be a displeased leader started to berate them. As he spoke, he cast meaningful glances at the police in charge of the security, standing by the passageway. He seemed to be wondering if he should get the police to drive them out.

“Remember, eight o’clock tonight. Pier No. 17. I will only wait for 10 minutes. I will make your trip worthwhile.” Tang Zixian left these words before she left.

Ning Tao had not indicated if he would turn up even at her departure. He was mulling in his mind. “She is a disciple of the overseas branch of Tang Sect. She has taken photos of the formation outside Feminine-moon City, but that place had collapsed. Even if she could unlock the formation, it would now be of no use. Other than this formation outside the Feminine-moon City, what else can we talk about? The events happening now?”

Right now, Bai Sheng had already finished his activities with the volunteer. The watch on the volunteer’s wrist had been removed.

Bai Sheng raised the watch high up in the air and said in a loud voice, “I believe everyone is familiar with the functions of this smart watch. It has the ability to provide holographic video chats and can also measure your heart rate, blood lipid level and blood sugar etc. The wearer can know his physical condition at any time and will live a healthier life. On top of that, its sports functions are very powerful. You can wear it to scuba dive, jog, and climb mountains. Its name is ‘Apocalypse’. Remember this name. It will soon be selling in every telecommunication market in the world!”

Snap, snap, snap!

Another warm round of applause from under the stage.

Bai Sheng continued, “Right now, our Divine Microchip and Apocalypse smart watch are only at the trial production stage. Production will be limited. We will only manufacture a small quantity to test the market. Now, I will hold a lucky draw. The prize to the lucky winners will be our Apocalypse smart watch!”

There was another warm round of applause from under the stage, followed by more discussions. It was a world-leading smart watch and everyone wanted to be among the lucky winners. Other than its sports and body monitoring functions, its holographic projection function would be enough to make anyone drool.

A female assistant with long legs carried the lucky draw box to Bai Sheng.

Bai Sheng stretched his hand into the box and drew out a ping-pong ball with a number. The female assistant called out a guest’s number on the invitation card. A man of around 50 went up the stage and received his Apocalypse watch.

“Isn’t this Yang Long, the chairman of the Changtian Group? He’s already a billionaire, so how can he be so lucky?” A reporter was grumbling by Ning Tao’s side.

One after another, the lucky winners were drawn. They were either rich billionaires or influential officials. There was only one Average Joe drawn, but he was an Internet star with millions of fans.

Ning Tao felt it all quite strange in his heart. He told himself, “Is this Apocalypse watch the new magic tool Nicholas Conway used to control his commandos in the botanical garden? So everyone who wears the watch will be… controlled!”

The last Apocalypse smart watch had been given out. Bai Sheng went down the podium and said nothing more. Those who had won the smart watch were all eager to test its functions. A crowd was clustering around each lucky winner.

Ning Tao and Bai Jing also drew near to one of the lucky winners, watching him activate the Apocalypse smart watch. This winner was the magnate Yang Long, chairman of the Changtian Group.

Yang Long dialed his secretary’s number and the line got through. Unfortunately, since his secretary was not wearing an Apocalypse smart watch, they could not communicate using holographic projection. But his secretary’s precise location appeared on Yang Long’s Apocalypse watch. It also provided him with the data of her speech rate, heart rate, weight etc. It came to a conclusion: the contacted person must be feeling very tense.

The surrounding onlookers all started to clap.
