155: Section 155

Hearing the girl's sobs, Yan Jiao grew even more irritable, extending her hands and pushing the girl with force.

“Bang!”

Caught off guard, the girl fell to the ground, her head hitting the tiled floor with a dull thud.

Seeing the girl on the ground, Yan Jiao not only didn't help her up but continued to mock her coldly.

“I just lightly touched you, and you fell. Can’t you be more careful in the future…?”

After speaking, Yan Jiao saw that the girl still showed no reaction, so she impatiently kicked the girl.

“Stop playing dead! Isn’t it just asking you for a little money?”

Chapter 139: Empress Ji Ningshuang

However, the girl still showed no reaction. Seeing this, a hint of panic flashed in Yan Jiao’s eyes, and she quickly reached out to check the girl’s breathing.

Thump!

Yan Jiao plopped down on the ground, her face no longer showing its previous harshness.

“No breath… How could this happen… How could this happen… I clearly didn’t use force just now. It’s not my fault, it’s not my fault, she fell on her own, right!”

“No, I can’t let anyone know about this. Absolutely not! That’s right, I can quietly take her out, then tie a stone to her and sink her in the river. She’s just a small Waiter; no one will pay attention to her.”

Wu Zhongtian, on the hospital bed, had eyes filled with anxiety. He wanted to speak, but being severely injured at the moment, even speaking was a luxury.

Yan Jiao grabbed the girl’s arm and dragged her to the corner of the room. Then she hurried out of the ward, accidentally stepping on the apples the girl had spilled on the floor as she left, almost causing Yan Jiao to fall.

But this time, she didn't say anything; instead, she picked up the apples and placed them in the girl's arms.

“As expected of my wife, still so decisive.”

Looking at Yan Jiao’s departing back, Wu Zhongtian’s eyes were full of approval. Taking the apples with her would ensure no evidence was left behind.

At that time, if both of them denied everything, what could the police do without evidence, even if they investigated?

Thinking of this, Wu Zhongtian felt much more at ease and began to close his eyes to rest. But what he didn't notice was that the girl's eyes slowly opened.

“Where… is this???”

The girl opened her eyes, and the surrounding environment felt somewhat unfamiliar to her.

“Didn’t I perish together with the Shadow Devil Emperor? How could I be here?”

Suddenly, a flood of memories surged in… “Is this actually a completely different world? Destiny truly is a miraculous thing. I just don’t know if I can ever return to my original world.”

Ji Ningshuang murmured softly, then looked up and realized there was a bag of apples in her arms.

“This girl is truly unfortunate enough, but since I have taken over your body, then from now on, let me avenge you and live well for you.”

The girl's background was tragic; her parents had died in a car accident when she was young.

Later, the girl was adopted by her neighbor, Wu Zhongtian. She thought her life would improve, but what she didn't expect was that Wu Zhongtian was only interested in the compensation her parents received after their death.

After getting that money, Wu Zhongtian’s attitude towards her completely changed.

He made her do all the dirty and tiring work, and whenever the couple was even slightly displeased, they would find an excuse to beat and scold her.

Over the years, the girl managed to finish high school through diligent work-study. Even though she was accepted into a key university, the couple had no intention of supporting her studies.

Meanwhile, their biological daughter, who only got into a vocational college, had a grand banquet thrown for her by the couple.

The helpless girl could only go to work as a Waiter at a restaurant.

“Hmm? This body is actually… a Saint Body.”

Ji Ningshuang’s eyes showed surprise.

“It's even the Grand Yin Saint Body, which ranks high among the Three Thousand Saint Bodies. This is truly heaven’s help to me.”

One must know that the cultivation speed of the Grand Yin Body is famously fast. At this moment, she had no cultivation at all and needed to reach the pinnacle of this world as quickly as possible to find an opportunity to return to her original world.

Her enemies from her previous life, she would settle accounts with them one by one!

Thinking of this, Ji Ningshuang sat cross-legged and entered a state of cultivation.

After just one minute, Ji Ningshuang’s strength reached Body Refinement First Level.

“At this speed, I can reach the peak of Houtian within a day. But now is not the time; I still need to resolve the immediate trouble.”

Calculating the time, that b*tch should be back soon.

Ji Ningshuang stood up, picked up an apple, and shoved it into Wu Zhongtian’s mouth.

As an Empress in her previous life, she never held grudges overnight. Whoever provoked her would only have one outcome.

“Mmm!!!”

Wu Zhongtian had just fallen asleep, but an apple was forcefully shoved into his mouth. However, he was completely powerless to resist at the moment.

The large apple was directly stuffed into his mouth, almost fracturing his jaw.

Just then, the room door opened, and Yan Jiao walked in carrying a suitcase, clearly intending to use it to pack Ji Ningshuang.

“You little b*tch, what are you doing!”

Yan Jiao had just pushed open the door and saw this scene. Without time to consider how Ji Ningshuang had stood up, Yan Jiao pounced forward, trying to grab Ji Ningshuang’s hair.

How could Ji Ningshuang indulge her? She kicked Yan Jiao to the ground.

“You actually dared to hit me? You little b*tch, are you trying to rebel?!”

Yan Jiao struggled to get up, but to her surprise, Ji Ningshuang walked straight over and stomped on her, pinning her to the ground.

Then, Ji Ningshuang repeatedly slapped Yan Jiao’s face from left to right. In just a few seconds, Yan Jiao’s face swelled up like a pig’s head.

“You b*t...”

Yan Jiao blurted out, but seeing the hand that had just been raised, she instantly swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

“Today is just a small lesson for you two. There’s still a long time ahead.”

With that, Ji Ningshuang turned and left the ward.

Her strength was still too weak now. The most urgent task was to become stronger as quickly as possible so she could eliminate these two without any qualms.

“I’ll let you two live a few more days, so you can enjoy your last moments.”

Ji Ningshuang was confident that she could reach the Grandmaster Realm within a few days. At that point, she would be able to use secret techniques to eliminate these two without anyone knowing.

After Ji Ningshuang left, Yan Jiao shakily stood up.

“This little b*tch actually dared to hit me! I must find someone to kill him. And you, you waste, watching your wife get beaten and not even daring to speak…”

“Mmm!!”

Wu Zhongtian shook his head continuously. His mouth was stuffed with an entire apple, and two of his teeth had been knocked out. How could he possibly speak?

Yan Jiao only noticed Wu Zhongtian’s condition at this moment and immediately started shouting.

“Doctor, doctor! Is anyone there? Where have you all gone?! Come quickly and check on my Old Wu!”

...“In the early hours of today, three girls mysteriously disappeared in Jiang Province. In response, the police have implemented a city-wide lockdown. Unless absolutely necessary, please do not go out and lock your doors and windows.

In response, the Director of the Jiang Province Public Security Department stated that the perpetrator would be apprehended within 24 hours…”

Chapter 140: Ji Ningshuang's Crisis

“Qing Yuan, send me Qin Hao’s location. I’m going personally.”

To be safe, Xiao Fan only had Qing Yuan lead a few members of the War Department to track him. The risk of others dealing with the Child of Destiny was too great.

Qin Hao might escape, and if he suddenly used an unreasonable cheat, it would be difficult to handle.

“Yes.”

Xiao Fan then received the location sent by Qing Yuan.

“This kid, he actually dared to stay in the city after committing the crime. He’s quite bold.”

Xiao Fan was a little surprised. He had thought Qin Hao would definitely flee after committing the crime, at least out of the city. He didn't expect Qin Hao to play the 'hiding in plain sight' trick.

However, the effect of this trick was also obvious. Although the police were now deploying forces both inside and outside the city, it had to be admitted that the situation inside the city was much more complex, making it easier to hide than in the suburbs.

“Xueqi, you three play. I’m going out for a bit.”

“Alright, when you come back, the four of us can play together. I feel like we’ve gotten tired of playing Landlord.”

“Okay, I’ll be back very soon.”

After reporting, Xiao Fan looked at the somewhat dispirited Chen Xueqi and comforted her.

Then Xiao Fan drove off in his bentley… “I should go eat something first. I haven’t eaten all day. I really don’t know how she endured it.”

After leaving the hospital, Ji Ningshuang rubbed her painfully hungry stomach, then reached into her pocket and pulled out a somewhat faded phone, starting to search for a place to eat.
