“You, by yourself? Where’s my granddaughter?” Sun Pingchuan stopped a few steps away, with a cold harsh voice and anger.

Ning Tao put away his cell phone and raised up his head. Seeing the sunglasses Sun Pingchuan was wearing, he realized how ridiculous it was to use screen light to attract him. But he still wondered whether Sun Pingchuan was really blind. Wasn’t it bit strange for a blind man to run on the Great Wall and find him there?

With just a glance, Ning Tao said, “She’s in my clinic. As long as you bring what I want, you can see her and take her away in seconds.”

Sun Pingchuan asked coldly, “Why should I trust you?”

Ning Tao didn’t reply; he only opened up the small medicine chest without a hurry. He pulled off an ordinary prescription with blood lock on it then opened a convenient door with the clinic’s key, and disappeared behind the door.

Sun Pingchuan took off his sunglasses. His gray eyeballs stared intently at the ordinary prescription that fell on the ground.

Suddenly, the convenient door reappeared as Ning Tao walked out of it, with a repaired flute in his hands. He waved the magic tool at Sun Pingchuan, making some noise.

Sun Pingchuan stepped back subconsciously.

Ning Tao was surprised. “You can see it?”

Sun Pingchuan replied after a while, “A little bit.”

Ning Tao said, “I was wondering how you found this place on a snowy night… It turns out you can see a little bit. I suppose those you killed thought you were blinded and underestimated you.”

“Cut the bullshit!” Sun Pingchuan stormed angrily, “Give me back Xiang’er!”

Ning Tao said, “As I’ve told you just now, she’s in my clinic. You can follow me to my clinic if you don’t believe me and we can make deals there. You can give me what I want after you see your granddaughter.”

Sun Pingchuan calmed down a little, but he was still angry. “What’s the history of your clinic?”

Ning Tao replied, “I don’t really know. This is all I can do. It’s up to you.”

“You’re trying to trick me into going to your clinic, to get the elixir prescription and then kill both me and Xiang’er, right?” Still distrusting, Sun Pingchuan was sounding him out.

Ning Tao smirked and said, “Do you have another choice? The longer you hesitate, the more dangerous it will be for you and your granddaughter. I will not only give you back Sun Lanxiang but also give you a ride to Florence or Egypt so you can hide away once you give me the elixir prescription. If you don’t believe me just walk away now.”

Sun Pingchuan thought about it and said, “Take me to your clinic. I won’t give you the elixir prescription until I see my granddaughter. But I’m warning you, if you play any tricks I’ll destroy the elixir prescription and you’ll never have it!”

Ning Tao opened the convenient door again. “Follow me.”

Sun Pingchuan was at Ning Tao’s side in a second and followed him in.

Green smoke curled up around the good-evil tripod. As soon as Sun Pingchuan entered the clinic, the face on the tripod looked annoyed.

Under such a deterrence, Sun Pingchuan’s legs became so weak that he almost fell on the ground. Looking at the face on good-evil tripod, the angry face made him feel nervous, scared and worried.

Ning Tao supported Sun Pingchuan as he took him to the Scriptures & Scrolls Store, saying, “Do you understand what kind of place this is? Malefactors stand no chance in here. Start a new chapter with your granddaughter after you leave this place and stop doing bad things. I don’t want to bring you here for punishment one day. ”

“You…” Sun Pingchuan wished to speak but stopped after a second thought. He seemed to have realized something but for some reason he stayed silent.

Ning Tao pushed open the first gate of the Scriptures & Scrolls Store and led Sun Pingchuan inside. He didn’t released Sun Pingchuan’s hands until they walked in.

Seeing the spiritual field and various spiritual materials in the room, Sun Pingchuan was stunned. Under the current condition, having a pot of spiritual soil to grow spiritual material would be counted as “middle class” in the cultivating world. But Ning Tao owned a spiritual field that covered dozens of square meters and grew large quantities of many precious spiritual materials. He could be counted as a tycoon for sure.

Ning Tao crossed the room and pushed open the second door.

Sun Pingchuan spotted Sun Lanxiang who was sitting on the floor in cross legged position immediately; Sun Lanxiang also noticed him right away; they looked at each other without saying a word, but the family connection brought them together in silence.

Ning Tao wasn’t in a hurry; he just stared at them.

“Xiang’er!” Sun Pingchuan cried out and strode to her.

Sun Lanxiang got up on her feet and ran into Sun Pingchuan’s arms.

Sun Lanxiang and Sun Pingchuan were undeniably guilty “wrongdoers,” but their family affection was real. This moment was particularly precious and sincere.

Sun Pingchuan hugged Sun Lanxiang for a while and asked in concern, “Xiang’er, are you hurt? Has he mistreated you?”

Sun Lanxiang glanced at Ning Tao. Something almost escaped her lips but she just shook her head.

Ning Tao didn’t just torture her, he did it in a way that she was ashamed to tell anyone. What difference would it make to tell her grandfather? Ning Tao ruled this place. Even Wu Yue had to kneel on the floor when she was here. How could she tell Sun Pingchuan the truth?

Ning Tao broke the silence, “You’ve seen your granddaughter. Where’s my stuff?”

Sun Pingchuan reached into his pocket.

Sun Lanxiang pressed his hands. “Grandpa, are you really sure about this? Are you really going to betray Wu Yue?”

Sun Pingchuan said, “You’re the most important to me. I’ll do anything to save you. He said he would send us to Egypt or Florence where we can start over.”

Hearing this, Sun Lanxiang released Sun Pingchuan’s hands.

Sun Pingchuan took out a photo from his pocket and threw it to Ning Tao.

Ning Tao grabbed it. It was the photo of a skull fragment, with legible navy blue writing on it. Ning Tao was thrilled. If Sun Pingchuan had just given him a written-down elixir prescription, it would have been troublesome and tricky for him to judge its authenticity. But with the photo, even he faked the skull fragment, it was impossible to fake the handwriting. Having seen four skull fragments up to this point, he was so familiar with the handwriting that he could tell if it was fake with just a glance.

Only, the photo was missing a corner, leaving the skull fragment incomplete.

Ning Tao frowned slightly after he cooled down a bit. “You kept your hand?”

Sun Pingchuan snorted, “When dealing with a sneaky person like you, of course I need to hide cards up my sleeve. Now fulfill your promise and send us to Egypt or Florence and I will tell you the missing content.”

Ning Tao packed up the photo. “All right. Come with me.”

“Wait,” Sun Lanxiang stopped Ning Tao.

Ning Tao turned to look at her and asked, “What do you want?”

Sun Lanxiang reached out and said, “Give me back my flute.”

Ning Tao glanced at the magic tool in his hand, hesitating. As a trophy, he had fixed it and was planning to give it to Qing Zhui. He was a bit reluctant to give it back to Sun Lanxiang.

Sun Lanxiang said, “It’s mine, not yours. Plus, fix my grandfather’s magic tool as well, or we won’t tell you the missing part. You broke his magic tool, so you should repair it!”

Ning Tao made up his mind. He threw the flute back to Sun Lanxiang, “I’ll return your magic tool to you. As to your grandfather’s magic tool, you can leave it to me and I’ll fix it. Some day when I’m assured that you have corrected your conduct I shall give it back to you.”

Sun Lanxiang said grumpily, “You wish…”

Sun Pingchuan cut her off, “Xiang’er, say no more.”

Sun Lanxiang stared at Sun Pingchuan in surprise. “Grandpa?”

Sun Pingchuan said indifferently, “I feel touched after coming here. God has treated us nicely but we’ve only misbehaved. Doctor Ning practices the ways of Heaven so his words are trustworthy. We don’t need magic tools but redemption.”

Sun Lanxiang said nothing.

Sun Pingchuan took a bag off his shoulder and put it on the floor. “Here’s my magic tool. You can fix it. Return it to me if I’m a changed man when we meet in the future. If I’m still doing evil deeds, you can do whatever you want with it.”

Ning Tao nodded. “Deal.”

God gave chances to everyone, even to sinners. The problem was that only a few were willing to give up evil and redeem themselves.

Sun Lanxiang and Sun Pingchuan risked their lives for Wu Yue, and did all kind of evils but received no punishments. If they continued on that path, the consequences would arrive sooner or later, even if Ning Tao had not tricked them. What they had at the moment was a chance to confess and redeem.

A few minutes later, in Egypt.

A convenient door appeared in a desolate desert and the three of them walked out of it.

The “transport point” had been left by Ning Tao when he rode the God’s Will electric motorbike to Gangde.

Ning Tao said, “Gangde is towards the north and Cairo is towards the south. It’s a safe place and you can head wherever you want to go. Now show me the missing piece.”

Sun Pingchuan said, “There’s no missing piece. I ripped it off and ate it.”

Ning Tao furrowed his brows. “What do you mean?”

Sun Pingchuan replied, “But I remember what’s on it so it’s the same as what I’m about to tell you.”

Ning Tao couldn’t hold back his bitter smile. The old man left not one card but several tricks up his sleeves. This also showed how determined he was to save Sun Lanxiang.

“Three Ocean jade cores, “Sun Pingchuan spat out.

Ning Tao laughed. To get the spiritual material was hard as hell for practitioners, but he could have it easily. Ruan Tianyin, the clam girl produced one ocean jade core every month. Ning Tao could have thirteen of them if he wanted.

“Xiang’er, let’s go,” Sun Pingchuan said. He seemed to have changed into another person after he came out of the clinic.

Sun Lanxiang looked at Ning Tao and left with Sun Pingchuan.

They headed to Cairo, leaving a trail of footprints on the sand behind them. They had walked countless paths for centuries but none of them was as meaningful as this trial.

“I do hope you can repent and be good,” Ning Tao said in his heart, as he walked into the convenient door.
