Chapter 328 An Advanced Escape Method (2/2)

“Where are the hostages?”

“Hotel Iris. We know that those people are of special identities, so we didn’t detain them, but only have them under control there. If they resist… or try to run away… the snipers would shoot… they would die… you can’t escape.”

Ning Tao said, “Nobody in this world can stop me if I wanted to leave. Listen carefully to what I have to say next. I’ll make you do something. If you can’t do it, I’ll kill you.”

Audrey tensed up instantly.

Ning Tao’s voice was icy cold, “Make a call to order your people at the hotel to retreat, then contact the personnel sent by the Black Fire Company headquarters, and tell them you’ve acquired the things. I will then be able to guarantee that you will live.”

“I can’t… I’m only a small fry,” Audrey said. She shut her eyes. “Just kill me. I won’t blame you. It’s my fate.”

Two teardrops rolled down from the corners of her eyes. Her pretty face resembled a damp petal. Who would bear to kill a poor bewitching beauty like her?

Ning Tao sighed, then looked in the direction of the hotel where Shalim Talman was staying.

A sudden cold sensation was thrusted into Ning Tao’s abdomen.

Ning Tao’s fingers moved, and then there was the sound of a gunshot. A bullet was shot into Audrey’s chest.

Audrey’s left hand dropped. She was holding tightly onto an army knife. Just when Ning Tao was looking towards the hotel, she had pulled out the army knife which was strapped to her thigh. She thought she had gotten the chance to get rid of Ning Tao, but little did she know that her every move was within Ning Tao’s expectations. He was even more cruel than her, devoid of any hesitation.

Ning Tao sighed and said, “Trying to earn sympathy? Do you think I won’t kill you just because you’re pretty? Dream on.”

The man who could preserve his chastity, despite being constantly enticed by two snake demons, already had a stronger self-control compared to more than 90% of men in the world. Playing a trick like that on him was equivalent to performing an erotic dance in front of a blind man. It was completely ineffective.

Suddenly, faint sounds were heard from where the Giotto’s Campanile was.

Ning Tao looked over.

A person was standing on the roof of Giotto’s Campanile. It was a tall and slim figure with a skinny face, who was wearing a pair of myopia glasses. He was holding a pistol equipped with a silencer, pointing it at Ning Tao’s chest.

After seeing his face clearly, Ning Tao’s heart felt like it had been pierced right through. It was precisely because, the person pointing a gun at him, was Lin Qinghua.

He had saved his life, and treated him as a friend. They had also spent many happy moments together. Yet, at the moment, Lin Qinghua was pointing a gun at him.

“Put the gun down,” Lin Qinghua spoke.

Ning Tao smiled wryly, then released the gun. The revolver fell from his hand and onto Audrey’s abdomen.

“I didn’t expect for you to be so cruel.” Lin Qinghua’s voice was cold and totally emotionless.

A shred of pity was in Ning Tao’s voice, “You’re wrong. The one who has become cruel is you. Qingyu is innocent, and she’s your sister, yet you took her away. Where is she now?”

“She’s still alive. No need for your concern.”

“You took her to the Black Fire Company? It wasn’t enough for you to fall into hell? You’ve even dragged your sister into it?” There was a sense of suppressed anger in Ning Tao’s voice.

“I’ve already said it. She’s my sister. You don’t have to worry about her,” Lin Qinghua’s voice was still cold as he spoke. “Give the skull fragment to me.”

“What if I don’t?”

“Then you die.” Lin Qinghua suddenly pulled the trigger.

It was just at that moment when Ning Tao leaped from the windowsill, with his legs fully charged of energy. His entire body was propelled from the round roof, like an arrow released from a bow!

It took some time to pull the trigger, and that brief moment was already enough for a cultivating doctor who was skilled in the art of escape to complete his escape performance.

Poof!

Audrey’s body on the windowsill shook. Ning Tao had managed to escape, but she couldn’t. The bullet from Lin Qinghua’s gun pierced right into her body, but she could no longer feel it.

In an instant, Ning Tao had crossed the big round roof, then descended from it. Before his body lost control, his right feet kicked on the edge of the roof, and his body suddenly accelerated. He then flew towards the rooftop of the building on the opposite street.

Thump!

With a dull sound of collision, Ning Tao’s body collided forcefully into the rooftop. The intense tremor and impact had left him in pain. However, the pain was only minimal, as he had the protection of the spiritual power air sac of Powerful Tolerance to Beating, so his internal organs and bones did not suffer any damages.

In fact, after the two upgrades to the cultivation method for cultivating spiritual power, and with the spiritual power purified by the Taiji core, his Powerful Tolerance to Beating was no longer what it used to be. He used to be insusceptible only to punches and car collisions; at the moment, he could even survive jumping off buildings. It was a more advanced form of Powerful Tolerance to Beating.

Lin Qinghua had moved to the edge of the rooftop, but Ning Tao had already landed on the rooftop of the opposite building. After a brief moment, he had suddenly disappeared. He looked at the ground, and without hesitation, he jumped down.

He jumped off tens of meters in height without hesitation.

Thump! With a dull sound, Lin Qinghua fell to the ground abruptly. His legs were mangled beyond shape. He clearly did not possess the kind of protective air sac of spiritual power like Ning Tao’s, but he had his own kind. A second after collapsing, his legs suddenly made cracking noises, and his broken legs returned to normal!

The current Lin Qinghua was no longer the same.

He leaped from the ground, and didn’t run after Ning Tao. Rather, he started charging towards the hotel, where Shalim Talman was staying in, at lightning speed.
