Open a Clinic to Cultivate Myself - Chapter 442

Chapter 442 It’s the Thought that Counts

Qing Zhui asked concernedly, “Brother Ning, are you hurt?”

Ning Tao glanced at his leg that had been wounded by the sword. The fabric around the wound was slightly torn and some blood had soaked through. He suddenly made a shocking realization. The flying sword was no doubt the strongest magic tool in the world. Even the Sun Chaser Gun was unable to break the structure of the Heavenly Gem Magic Garment, yet that woman’s flying sword was able to. Even though it was only a small hole, it had still managed to break through.

However, in order to prevent Qing Zhui from getting worried, Ning Tao still pretended that everything was okay. “It’s okay, it’s just a minor injury. Let’s go.”

Yet, Bai Jing reached out to touch Ning Tao’s thigh. “It’s already bleeding yet you’re saying it’s a minor injury. Remove your garment when we’re back, let me fix it for you.”

Qing Zhui said, “Sister, this is the Heavenly Gem Magic Garment. There’s no way you can mend it.”

Bai Jing gave Qing Zhui her signature glance. “Did I ask for your reminder? I meant to fix his wound.”

Ning Tao was definitely not in the mood to engage in nonsensical chatter with Bai Jing. He rubbed some blood off the wound on his leg, squatted beside Ge Ming and drew a blood lock. Qing Zhui quickly propped Ge Ming up and when the convenient door opened, she and Bai Jing followed him and walked through.

Just when the three people had left, a grenade flew over. With a huge explosion, a pit hole, almost the size of a person was created in the snowy ground.

That grenade was launched from Nicholas Conway’s mechanical arm. Its power was frightening!

Bluish smoke filled the Sky Clinic, the good-evil tripod was fuming. Curled up on the ground, Sun Lanxiang looked like she was in great pain. But her pain was not caused by the injuries from Ning Tao’s beating. Rather, it was from the suppression of the Sky Clinic. Ning Tao had “imprisoned” her here. She could not even move at all, much less get up and escape.

Sun Lanxiang looked at the person who had suddenly entered the room. She wanted to say something but she was gagged with a ball of rag, unable to make any noise.

“Why is there a person here?” Qing Zhui asked in shock. Sun Lanxiang was beaten up by Ning Tao till she was swollen and bruised, so Qing Zhui did not recognized her right away.

Ning Tao said, “She’s Sun Lanxiang. She and Sun Pingchuan had plotted against me, I’ve caught her.”

Qing Zhui said, “How about we kill her?”

Ning Tao said, “We can’t kill her. I plan to use her in exchange for Genesis Biotech Company’s elixir prescription.”

“Brother-in-law, your binding skill is very ordinary. I’ll teach you later. If you don’t think that it’s convenient to tie me up, then you can tie Qing Zhui,” Bai Jing suddenly remarked.

Qing Zhui looked at her older sister, wanting to comment but hesitated.

Ning Tao had actually already been used to such situations and switched conversation topics, “You two take Ge Ming back home first. I need to go to Everest to fetch Hao and Howling Celestial Dog.”

Ning Tao opened the door for Qing Zhui and Bai Jing, he then went to the lock wall and opened the convenient door. Once he stepped through the convenient door, he was already at the peak of the icy cold Everest.

Jiang Hao was leaning over a rock, using the Sun Chaser Gun’s optical sight to spy on the battlefield below. Her slim waist and curvaceous bum, along with the cold gun, was a sight of rough and violent beauty.

The convenient door opened and Jiang Hao turned around to look. When she saw Ning Tao stepping out of the door, she heaved a long sigh of relief. She asked, “Where are Qing Zhui and the rest?”

Ning Tao said, “They’ve returned. I’m here to pick you up.”

The convenient door disappeared and reverted into an ordinary prescription slip. It was Jiang Hao’s exclusive convenient door which she carried around with her. No matter where she went, Ning Tao would be able to appear by her side. In fact, Jiang Hao was not the only person with such an exclusive convenient door. Qing Zhui, Bai Jing and Yin Molan all had one too. Ever since Yin Molan’s incident, Ning Tao had given the four demons each an exclusive convenient door.

“Where’s Ge Ming?” Jiang Hao asked again.

“Qing Zhui had brought him home. He was slightly injured but I’ve checked, he’s not in any danger. I’ll treat him when I’m back and he’ll be alright.” Ning Tao approached Jiang Hao and lied down beside her, glancing downwards.

A dog was running uphill from the middle of the mountain. It was scaling the winding and rocky mountain routes effortlessly, as fast as the wind, like it was on smooth ground.

Ning Tao revealed a smile. “Good dog.”

Jiang Hao suddenly said, “The fight below has ceased.”

“They’ve stopped fighting? Let me see.” Ning Tao shifted himself closer.

Jiang Hao passed the Sun Chaser Gun to Ning Tao.

Ning Tao placed his right eye at the Sun Chaser Gun’s optical sight and looked towards the northern slope. It was chaotic. The Black Fire Company’s mercenaries and Genesis Biotech Company’s fearless warriors had mostly perished. The mountain slope was filled with mangled corpses, blood, flesh and pieces of organs. It was a bloody and gruesome scene.

Nicholas Conway and the woman wearing a bamboo hat was confronting each other at the northern slope. The both of them had clearly just been through a battle, but neither of them were able to conquer the other. It was a pity that they were too far away and Ning Tao could not hear them. The Sun Chaser Gun’s optical sight was not a magnifying glass after all, it was unable to expand the image and read their lips. Even if the two of them were talking, he would not have been able to read it because he did not know how to lipread.

At this moment, Howling Celestial Dog had finally arrived at their meeting point. It was panting hard. “Dad…I…am back.”

Ning Tao reached out to pat Howling Celestial Dog’s head. “Celestial Howling, can you hear the sounds from the northern slope?”

“I’ll try.” Howling Celestial Dog stuck up its ears and after two short seconds, it said, “Yes, I can hear it!”

Ning Tao said anxiously, “Quick, tell me what you hear.”

Imitating the voice of a woman, Howling Celestial Dog said “Nicholas Conway, we’ve battled for hundreds of years, you can’t kill me and I can’t kill you. Are we going to continue fighting each other?”

Immediately after, Howling Celestial Dog imitated a man’s voice, “The Ancestor-seeking Elixir can only have one owner and that’s me. How about you hand over your elixir prescription? We’ll no longer be enemies, but rather, friends. Once the Ancestor-seeking Elixir is cultivated, I guarantee that you’ll receive one portion too. Wu Yue, what do you think?”

Wu Yue?

It was Ning Tao’s first time hearing this name, he was surprised and made the connection. “Her surname is Wu. A few hundred years… Zetian Fairy. Zetian… could she be related to Wu Zetian?”

“What nonsense!” Howling Celestial Dog imitated Wu Yue’s voice. “I’ll be destroying your negligible power and influence in the West sooner or later, yet you dared to shamelessly ask me to give you the elixir prescription? How about you give it to me and I’ll spare your life, what do you think?”

Howling Celestial Dog imitated Nicholas Conway’s voice, “I’ve already gotten the rascal’s elixir prescription. The elixir prescription I have is the most complete. If you gave me yours, then I’ll be able to cultivate a complete Ancestor-seeking Elixir. Don’t you want the complete Ancestor-seeking Elixir?”

“Hmph! Do you know why the first thing I did when I came here was to break that rascal’s leg?”

“What do you mean?”

“Is your head filled with iron? That rascal is very cunning. Do you think he’ll give you the authentic elixir prescription in exchange for an ordinary person? I dare to bet with my head that the prescription you have is fake. If you do not believe me, then you can try using it to refine.”

“Then why are you still snatching it?”

“You’re mistaken. I only want to kill you.”

“Hmph! I will verify the authenticity myself. I will not believe anything you say.”

“It doesn’t matter whether you believe it or not. I have a suggestion though. That rascal has already escaped. His elixir prescription is the most complete. How about this, whoever gets the prescription from the rascal first, the other party would have to give up their prescription but will get a share of the complete Ancestor-seeking Elixir prescription. What do you think?”

Ning Tao was observing Nicholas Conway’s reaction through the Sun Chaser Gun’s optical sight.

Nicholas had opened the elixir prescription which was in his hands. He took a glanced at it, after a few seconds of silence, he finally spoke.

Howling Celestial Dog imitated the voice of Nicholas Conway, “If this elixir prescription is really fake, then I’ll cooperate with you.”

Ning Tao’s heart sank.

The situation that he did not wish would happen has happened. With his current powers, he could beat neither Nicholas Conway nor Wu Yue. His small team’s capability was absolutely incomparable to Black Fire Company and Genesis Biotech Company. Sustaining the fight from one company was already enough, much less now with both companies combined!

Howling Celestial Dog said, “Dad, they’ve stopped talking.”

Through the Sun Chaser Gun’s optical sight, Nicholas Conway suddenly looked in the direction of the peak.

Jiang Hao had eliminated the helicopter Lin Qinghua was on from this position, it was very easy for him to determine the position of the sniper.

Ning Tao then passed the Sun Chaser Gun to Jiang Hao. “Hao, get rid of them!”

Jiang Hao nodded and took the gun. In the next second, she was prepared to shoot.

Bang!

The sound of a gunshot. A special bullet was launched from the gun, flying right towards the biggest target, Nicholas Conway.

On the northern slope, Nicholas Conway suddenly lifted his left mechanical arm.

Ding!

The bullet hit the mechanical arm, bent out of shape then fell to the ground.

Jiang Hao was in shock, her jaw dropped.

Wu Yue suddenly jumped. The flying sword suspended above her instantly flew beneath her feet, turning into a stream of light and flew towards the peak.

The assassination plan had failed.

Ning Tao definitely did not dare to stay here for another second. He grabbed his keys to the clinic and stuck it into the blood lock beside Jiang Hao.

The convenient door opened.

Ning Tao wrapped his arm around Jiang Hao’s waist and rolled inside. Howling Celestial Dog followed behind closely and plunged into the convenient door.

A stream of light flew over and crashed on the rock which Jiang Hao and Ning Tao were hiding on. The rock which weighed at least a thousand tons crackled and split into two. If Jiang Hao were still on this rock in her shooting stance, she would have likely been split into two pieces by the flying sword, just like this rock!

Ning Tao, in his Heavenly Gem Magic Garment was not able to protect himself from the flying sword’s attack, much less Jiang Hao who was unable to use the Heavenly Gem Magic Garment normally.

Wu Yue stepped on her flying sword and hovered before the convenient door. “Ning Tao! Give me the elixir prescription!”

Give me——give me——give me!

Her astounding voice washed over the skies and lands with great force!

Swoosh!

Something small suddenly flew out of the closed convenient door, towards Wu Yue.

Wu Yue blocked it with one arm and that little thing suddenly stopped, suspending in mid-air. It was only a few meters away from her.

That was a condom.

It was a souvenir from Ning Tao’s northern Europe trip. He never had the chance to use it, and now he was gifting it to Wu Yue.

It was the thought of the gift that counted.

Looking at the condom suspending in mid-air, Wu Yue froze for a whole minute.

Her gaze was so frighteningly cold.
