Chapter 93 She opened the space-time tunnel!
At this moment, inside the training room of the Tian Shu Sect leader.
Ning Jinli has already absorbed the internal energy of more than a dozen traitors from the Tian Shu Sect.
These top-tier experts from the Tian Shu Sect, having exhausted their inner strength, collapsed one after another.
In an instant, he transformed into an old man with gray hair and a wrinkled face.
"Sect Leader...can we...leave now?"
The crowd was hunched over, their faces aged and ashen, with only a glimmer of hope for life remaining in their cloudy eyes.
Although he only lived a few years and became a cripple, at least he was still alive.
Ye Zhi Qiu ignored him and directly summoned the sect's enforcers.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then quickly knelt down and cried, "Sect Leader...we know we were wrong!"
"Please, Sect Leader, spare my life!"
"Didn't you promise us that if we gave all our inner strength to your daughter, you would spare our lives?"
Ye Zhi Qiu responded with a chilling laugh.
In front of them, he ordered the law enforcement officers, "Betraying the sect and slaughtering four hundred of my disciples is an unforgivable crime. Execution is too lenient. Imprison these traitors until death, and do not release them during this period. Use them as tools for the disciples to test medicines and practice martial arts."
"Yes, Sect Leader!" The enforcers immediately led their men to drag the traitors away.
The traitors who were just crying and howling couldn't even cry anymore.
Only then did they realize what true despair was.
They didn't even have the chance to survive a few more years; what awaited them were days more painful than death...
Wow!
Suddenly, Ning Jinli's body moved without any wind.
Ye Zhi Qiu could feel an invisible energy surrounding her.
A ring of light appeared in Ning Jinli's pupils, and the fluctuation of that energy became increasingly obvious.
"Daughter, what's wrong?" Ye Zhi Qiu asked anxiously, as she had never seen anything like this before.
Ning Jinli did not answer. She was highly focused, with all her attention on the vaguely appearing entrance to the time-space passage in front of her.
She continuously circulated her inner energy using the Heavenly Profound Heart Method, and following the guidance of her intuition, she stretched out her hands.
At this moment, the invisible barrier that she had previously felt blocking her way seemed to materialize. As her palm reached out, a circle of transparent ripples spread out in front of her, and then gradually turned into a fluorescent vortex.
With a thought, she poured her inner strength into her palms.
She immediately saw the fluorescent vortex expanding, and the scene in her factory's small warehouse became increasingly clear within it.
Even after the space-time tunnel was fully opened, Ning Jinli still found it hard to believe.
"I...did it?" She stared blankly at her hands.
Ye Zhi Qiu was completely bewildered. "What did you do? Daughter, what just happened to you?"
Ning Jinli snapped out of her daze and pointed to the entrance to the time-space portal that had appeared in the training room. "Mom, can you see it?"
Although based on previous experience, only she and Xiao Qidi could see this time-space portal, she still hoped that her mother could see it too.
Ye Zhi Qiu glanced in the direction she was pointing and asked, "What...do you see?"
“Okay, you can’t see it.” Ning Jinli said helplessly, “I opened a spacetime tunnel, the kind I told you about. It used to appear on its own, but today after I practiced the Heavenly Profound Heart Method, I don’t know why, but I felt like I saw it here too. I just wanted to try and capture that illusion-like feeling, and I didn’t expect to actually succeed.”
Ye Zhi Qiu said happily, "So, you can come to my place anytime from now on?"
Ning Jinli nodded.
"That's wonderful!" Ye Zhi Qiu hugged her daughter. "This way, even if I can't go back to the modern world, it will be very convenient for me to see you!"
Then she loosened her embrace and urged, "Then you should hurry back. You've been in this world for quite a while now, and the people there probably still think you've gone missing! Especially your Aunt Su, she must be worried sick! Go back and let them know you're safe, don't make them worry!"
She had already heard from her daughter about how she was taken in by Su Qinglan after being kicked out of Ninghai's home ten years ago.
She felt grateful to the person who had painstakingly cared for her daughter for ten years, and regarded him as her benefactor, just like her daughter.
If she could go back herself, she would definitely visit and express her gratitude in person.
"Mom, then I'll leave Xiao Qidi in your care for now. He needs to rest and recover properly, so I won't take him with me. I'll go back by myself first," Ning Jinli said.
Ye Zhi Qiu nodded repeatedly, "Don't worry, don't worry, go quickly."
Ning Jinli took a step and stepped into the time-space tunnel.
In the blink of an eye, she was back in the factory's small warehouse.
Looking at the familiar surroundings, I breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
I'm back...
I'm finally back!
The feeling was like a dazed dream.
Not long ago, I thought I was going to perish in Eagle Fall Gorge with Xiao Qidi, but unexpectedly, I turned misfortune into blessing. Not only did I eat the inner core of the giant serpent, but I also escaped the perilous situation in an unimaginable way and even unexpectedly met my mother.
He even learned the Heavenly Profound Heart Method because of this, and thus personally opened a space-time channel connecting to his mother's side!
What does it mean to turn misfortune into blessing?
That's it!
Ning Jinli glanced back at the entrance to the time-space tunnel. In the slowly rotating fluorescent light, she could see her mother looking out from the other side.
She couldn't help but go back.
"Wow! How come you're back so soon?" Ye Zhi Qiu's eyes widened. "You just disappeared from my sight, and I thought... everything that happened between your appearance and your departure was a dream..."
"Mom!" Ning Jinli's nose tingled, and she threw herself into her arms again. "I discovered before that the time-space portal can be upgraded, and now I can open the portal myself. I believe that I can definitely find a way to let you see it too, and to walk back with me!"
"Okay...I believe you." Ye Zhi Qiu's eyes were slightly red. "My precious daughter is the best."
Ning Jinli calmed herself down before passing through the time-space tunnel again.
Because she had taken her cell phone to start a fire the day she fell into the ravine, she couldn't call Su Qinglan immediately.
Furthermore, to prevent employees from seeing items disappear into thin air while she is delivering supplies, no one is assigned to guard this warehouse area.
Ning Jinli couldn't find anyone to borrow her phone, so she had to go to the office building to find a landline.
So she opened the locker in the small storage room, took out a set of clothes and shoes, changed, and headed straight for the office building.
As I walked, I suddenly realized something was wrong.
A commotion came from a production area in the distance, sounding like a large group of people had gathered there.
Ning Jinli looked in the direction the sound came from and saw a large crowd of people in the distance, with many security guards maintaining order nearby.
Ning Jinli's heart skipped a beat.
Did an accident happen at the factory?
Without thinking twice, she quickly ran towards the crowd.
"What happened?" Ning Jinli asked a security guard.
The security guard didn't recognize her and mistook her for one of the factory's employees. He simply told her not to get involved and to go back to the employee dormitory.
Taking advantage of the security guards being too busy, Ning Jinli squeezed into the crowd and inquired around, finally piecing together some information.
She also heard that the factory director was in charge of the overall situation at the front, and was about to squeeze through when she suddenly heard some arguing.
Even without activating her internal energy, her basic physical abilities, such as vision and hearing, are now much stronger than those of an average person.
Although there were many people gathered outside the factory where the incident occurred, they were all discussing the matter and no one was arguing.
Ning Jinli concentrated intently, listening carefully to where the arguing was coming from, and soon discovered that it was coming from inside the factory.
No one else could hear her.
A bad feeling rose in her heart.
Firstly, I heard that the factory manager sent about ten security guards into the factory to find out what was going on. Since an argument had broken out, it meant that things were not going well.
Secondly, although it was unclear what they were arguing about, the argument was clearly getting more and more intense, showing signs of escalating conflict.
The situation was urgent, and Ning Jinli didn't have time to discuss countermeasures with Zheng Houcheng.
After a moment's thought, she decided to sneak into the factory building herself.
This is actually the safest approach, because given her current situation, even if a conflict breaks out between the security guards and employees, she can not only protect herself but also use force to control the situation.
Right now.
Inside the factory, the security captain with the slashed face was arguing heatedly with a group of assembly line workers.
This was obviously intentional on the part of the knife-faced gang.
From the very beginning, they were determined to cause a death. How could they possibly talk to the employees inside nicely as Zheng Houcheng instructed? They would definitely use the factory's name and do whatever it takes to escalate the conflict.
Not to mention there were more than a dozen accomplices hidden among the workers, secretly stirring up trouble among them.
The employees, unaware of the truth, were already on the verge of losing control and having a major emotional outburst.
The man with the slender face deliberately acted arrogantly and sneered, "You think you can cause trouble? You're just a bunch of spineless cowards who only know how to yell. You're not even worthy of licking our factory's shoes! So what if we don't pay you? Giving you a few bones is already a favor from our factory! Don't you dare push your luck!"
These words are utterly insulting.
The employees, who had always worked diligently on the assembly line, were so angry that their veins were bulging.
Moreover, this group voluntarily postponed their own meal times to allow other colleagues to eat first.
Even though they had a good impression of the factory manager during their time at the factory, too many things had happened one after another today, and they had already argued with the security guards. Hearing this humiliation, they could no longer remain rational.
The group that had been stirring up trouble in the crowd seized the opportunity and shouted, "Damn it! Do you think we'd let these dogs from this crappy factory bully us? Brothers! Let's get them!"
One stone stirs up a thousand waves!
The moment the voice fell, the workers erupted, roaring as they charged toward the security guards.
Bang!
A muffled thud.
The young man who was the first to rush up to the striped-faced security captain was hit in the ribs by an uppercut and sent flying two meters away.
Then came the sound of fists landing, and the other ten security guards didn't hold back either, taking down a group of them in the blink of an eye.
They came prepared and were all trained martial arts practitioners. How could a group of ordinary factory workers possibly be their match?
The security captain with the slashed face continued to taunt loudly, "You call yourselves cowards and you still won't admit it? Even if more than two hundred of you came at me together, I could beat you up like it was nothing! And you dare to go against our factory manager? Trash!"
"Ah!" one employee roared angrily.
Those who had been stirring up trouble behind the crowd immediately shouted, "Grab your weapons! Let's fight those lackeys!"
Enraged, the employees immediately went to look for the nearest available location without a second thought.
The factory was in a mess, with broken products and equipment parts everywhere.
Some people quickly grabbed whatever was handy, even the half-finished mop handles.
With a loud clang.
Some people even threw out their maintenance toolboxes.
Wrenches, hammers, screwdrivers, and other similar items were scattered all over the ground and were quickly snatched up by the crowd, who used them as weapons.
A sinister smile crept into the eyes of the knife-faced security captain.
very good.
That's the effect he wanted.
If his men kill someone, and the police investigate, his men can claim self-defense and avoid jail time.
After all, these employees, blinded by anger, were all carrying weapons.
He and his security guards were all unarmed.
"Go! Let's teach them a lesson and show these damn security guards that we're not to be trifled with!" a shout rang out from the crowd.
The crowd was filled with excitement, and they rushed forward carrying all sorts of odds and ends!
The factory was thrown into chaos.
The man with the striped face and his men were agile and swift, swinging their fists wildly through the crowd. Within minutes, more than a dozen employees were injured and lying on the ground.
Meanwhile, the group with the striped face were completely unharmed.
The other dozen or so people who were responsible for stirring up trouble among the employees retreated to a corner of the factory. All they had to do was wait for the guy with the knife-like face to kill a few workers, and then their mission would be complete.
A security guard seized the opportunity and targeted a middle-aged man who had collapsed from exhaustion on the ground, intending to kick him in the temple amidst the chaos.
Ning Jinli's clear voice rang out: "Stop it, all of you! Stop hitting me!"
The sound is extremely penetrating.
The security guard who was about to kill heard it all clearly.
He glanced at it out of the corner of his eye.
Amidst the chaotic crowd, a tall figure was rushing towards them.
He chuckled inwardly. He hadn't expected there to be women among these workers. Instead of keeping their distance, they dared to act so recklessly? Their courage was commendable!
Okay, she brought it to me herself.
After killing this middle-aged man in front of me, I'll kill her too!
The thought flashed through his mind, and the security guard raised his foot and kicked the other man hard in the side of his head.
Just as the tip of his leather shoe was about to strike the man's temple—
The tall figure pounced like an arrow, knocking him off his feet.
He gasped, rubbed his sore ribs, and got up.
"Uncle! Uncle, wake up!" Ning Jinli knelt beside the middle-aged man, supporting his shoulders and calling out.
"I...I'm fine..." The middle-aged man opened his eyes and said weakly, "It's too chaotic here, they've started fighting...Why don't you run?"
Seeing that he was alright, Ning Jinli breathed a sigh of relief, then turned and glared angrily at the security guard, "Are you crazy?! Did you try to kill him?! How can you be a security guard like that?!"
"Heh, she's really pretty, what a pity." The security guard sneered, and as he spoke, he swung his fist at Ning Jinli.
This punch was fast and powerful, aimed straight at the face.
He was 100% certain that he could at least knock the woman unconscious.
We can kill her and the middle-aged man lying on the ground together later.
