Chapter 28 Assassination
Ning Xuan used to be a cultivator with powerful mental strength and super perception. There was a slight breathing sound in her room that was deliberately suppressed. She was in danger when she entered the room, and if she retreated, the enemy would immediately realize that she had discovered him!
She remembered that it was said on Starnet that the Contract Master could mentally control the Contractor with whom a mental link had been established, so she decided to give it a try.
Ning Xuan immediately followed the tutorial on the Star Network and adjusted her mental power. Then, she returned her mind to the sea of consciousness and "saw" a passage extending outward on a vast spiritual sea. Ning Xuan knew that this was the spiritual connection channel. Her mental power spread along this passage and entered a place she had been to before.
The intrusion of Ning Xuan's spiritual power did not cause any resistance. Some light balls gathered around her and surrounded her, crowded together and intimately. She continued to move deeper. In the depths of the spiritual sea, she saw the big golden bird lying there with its wings folded as before, but now there was black substance flowing in its body, which was obviously much lighter than last time. Its body was still shrouded in red mist. When it looked at Ning Xuan, it let out a clear "cry" and its eyes were full of confusion, as if it didn't understand why Ning Xuan appeared here.
Ning Xuan pointed a finger at the center of his brow, and the spiritual power that entered Chen Nan's spiritual sea through the spiritual connection channel suddenly spread out, turning into a light sigh, "Take off the confinement ring, come here!"
When Ning Xuan saw that Chen Nan’s companion spirit was shrouded in thick red mist, she knew why Chen Nan didn’t notice that someone had broken into the house. He must have been wearing a confinement ring!
Chen Nan received Ning Xuan's voice transmission from the sea of consciousness and sat up suddenly. Why would Ning Xuan use the sea of consciousness to transmit the sound? He took off the ring on his neck and held it in his hand, and quickly walked towards Ning Xuan's room!
At this time, the man who was ambushing in Ning Xuan's house saw Ning Xuan standing outside the door and was reluctant to push it open. He realized that this woman might have discovered something. He suddenly opened the door, opened his mouth and spit out a bloody mouth accompanied by a strong fishy smell and white venom, which sprayed towards Ning Xuan!
Although Ning Xuan was prepared, the man was too fast and she dodged very awkwardly. When Chen Nan arrived, Ning Xuan's arms and thighs were splashed with venom. The venom corroded her clothes and also corroded her flesh, leaving black holes. In the most serious place, the bones were visible.
When Chen Nan saw Ning Xuan was injured, a large bird covered with golden feathers and green eyes jumped out of his body with a "cry". It spread its wings and pounced towards the man in black fiercely. The golden eagle's wings were as sharp as knives, and its claws could cut iron like mud. It soon beat the man in black without any chance of fighting back.
The man in black did see Chen Nan when he sneaked into the house, but Chen Nan was wearing a confinement ring at the time, so he couldn't judge Chen Nan's level. He just wanted to kill Ning Xuan quietly and complete the task, so he didn't create any trouble!
The companion spirit of the man in black is a black snake, whose level should be around A-level. The black snake has been able to condense into a solid entity, but the golden eagle is the nemesis of snakes, and Chen Nan's mental power level and comprehensive combat power are higher than his, so that the two of them only fought for a few rounds before the black snake was pinned down by the golden eagle's claws!
"Don't kill it. If it dies, the efficacy of the snake gall will deteriorate. Get the snake gall alive. I want to make medicine!" Ning Xuan said to Chen Nan while enduring the pain!
The man in black was covered in wounds at this time and was controlled by Chen Nan. After hearing Ning Xuan's words, his body trembled and his eyes rolled. But before he could say anything, the golden eagle swung its claws like a knife and accurately cut out a complete snake gall. After the snake's gall was taken out, the black snake's body became limp and died. Once a supernatural body dies, it cannot return to its original form. When the black snake's gall was taken out, the man in black howled and fainted!
The golden eagle flew to Ning Xuan with the bloody and steaming snake gall in one claw and handed it to her.
Ning Xuan took the snake gall and touched the golden eagle's head, then turned to Chen Nan and said, "Carry me to the laboratory!" It's not that she can't walk now, but once she walks, the circulation of qi and blood will speed up, which will accelerate the spread of toxins.
"Okay!" Chen Nan took out a confinement light rope from the space button and tied up the unconscious man in black tightly. In fact, even if he was not tied up, the man would be almost a useless person because of the death of his superpower!
Chen Nan picked up Ning Xuan and ran to the laboratory at full speed. At this time, the wounds of Ning Xuan corroded by snake venom had turned purple and black. It could be seen that the toxin was spreading around, and even the bones under the wound were stained black.
This kind of snake venom seemed to be able to damage the nervous system. Ning Xuan felt her limbs were already a little numb. She put the snake gall into the medicine furnace, released the vines, concentrated her mental power to guide the special energy in the snake gall, refined the impurities, and extracted the effective ingredients. After about a few minutes, a few drops of dark green liquid fell from the outlet at the bottom of the medicine furnace.
Chen Nan took away the bottle containing the medicine, replaced it with a new bottle, and dripped the extracted medicine on Ning Xuan's wound.
The originally black and swollen wound quickly reduced its swelling after the extracted snake gallbladder medicine was dripped on it. Black venom oozed out from around the wound, and bright red blood came out after the venom flowed out.
Ning Xuan handed Chen Nan a piece of gauze and said, "Don't get it on your hands. The venom has not completely lost its toxicity!"
By the time Ning Xuan had completely refined the snake gall, Chen Nan had bandaged the wounds on her arms and legs that were splashed with venom with gauze, except for the deepest wound on her arm!
"Fortunately, I wasn't bitten by that poisonous snake, otherwise..." Chen Nan had been kneeling on the ground treating Ning Xuan's wound. He looked at Ning Xuan uneasily while saying this!
Ning Xuan felt the numbness in her body fade away, leaving only a dense pain. Although the venom in the wound had been completely removed, the corroded flesh could not grow back quickly. She looked down at Chen Nan, "You want to say that it wasn't someone from your family who did it?"
"I just contacted my eldest brother today. My father just suspected that I did not follow his request and did not take any action. Except for my father, no one else in my family knows about your existence! In fact, my father only knows that you are on a D-class star, but he doesn't know the exact location and specific information!" Chen Nan hurriedly explained.
Ning Xuan recalled the content of the correspondence between Chen Nan and his family. Chen Nan's father mentioned that she was a low-level star woman, and it seemed that he really didn't know her name and specific address!
If it wasn't the assassin sent by Chen Nan's family, then who was it? The Bai family, Ning Chuchu, the family of Ning Chuchu's contractor, or her other four contractors who had never met before?
