Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 29 Sudden Death
Fifteen minutes later, Ji Fuyou arrived outside Longhu Manor.

As a high-end residential community, Longhu Manor has excellent security.

However, as Ji Fuyou maximized his mental strength and 11 points of physical strength, he avoided all the patrol personnel in advance, and also discovered some cameras and sensors ahead of time.

In less than 5 minutes, he appeared outside Villa No. 21.

The villa was brightly lit.

There were some figures moving around downstairs.

Many rooms upstairs had their lights on.

Ji Qingqing and Yu Xiaoyu didn't know what it meant for a chopstick to pierce a person's wrist, but this President Zhou Heng clearly knew some inside information, which made him quite cautious.

As Ji Fuyou approached the villa, his mental focus was highly concentrated, allowing him to keenly hear the phone call coming from the second floor.

"Yes, hurry up! The information I got from Baiye Group shows that he first placed an order for training equipment in September, which means he can only practice martial arts for a maximum of two months! In such a short time, developing Ming Jin is the limit! Is that alright?"

Based on a video of Zhou Heng found online, Ji Fuyou corrected the sound...

It's him.

“Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit. Master Xu, you should at least send me an intermediate martial arts master… My men will go with guns to assist, just in case. After you’ve dealt with it, throw it into any fog you see.”

This is indeed the style of the powerful and wealthy.

We were thinking the same thing.

I glanced at a balcony on the second floor...

Ji Fuyou stepped back slightly, took a few steps, and leaped up, using the wall for leverage, he quickly climbed to the second floor using both hands and feet.

Thanks to the fact that high-end villas like this don't usually install security grilles, Ji Fuyou, after getting onto the balcony, followed the sound, leaped up, and landed precisely on the windowsill of the master bedroom.

Zhou Heng was still on the phone, ignoring the sounds coming from the window.

The billionaire, whose net worth was over 100 million, was suddenly awakened when Ji Fuyou climbed through the window into the room.

"It's you!?"

His expression changed, and he was about to shout, "Come..."

Having already made preparations, Ji Fuyou immediately visualized the image of a demon god in the Heavenly Emperor's Demon-Subduing Diagram. Using his mental power as a medium, he instantly blasted the image into Zhou Heng's mental world through eye contact.

In an instant, an unprecedented fear spread through his heart.

But he was as if he were under a nightmare. He was aware that fear was creeping in like a bone-deep infection, but he couldn’t control his body and couldn’t move an inch!

Soul-Suppressing Spell!
Having weathered many storms, Zhou Heng knew very well that he could not possibly be paralyzed by Ji Fuyou, who had stormed into the house with a sword.

This is a spiritual secret technique!

A mental technique that can only be released when the mental scale is 15 or higher!
A mental scale exceeding 15 indicates at least an intermediate-level mental ability user!
If one's spirit is refined and liquefied, one can obtain a senior professional title and become a guest of honor of municipal executives, committee chairpersons, and other such figures!

Seasonal floating!?

Besides having mastered the Ming Jin martial arts, he's also a mental ability user with a mental scale of 15 or higher!?

As Zhou Heng's eyes widened in horror, Ji Fuyou quickly came to his side.

Those with mental abilities have their own fighting style!

By precisely controlling the force to strike acupoints!
In particular, Lu Xingchen, who taught him martial arts, had mastered the art of internal energy and was also a master of acupoint striking.

He instantly raised his hand, unleashing a powerful shockwave that struck Zhou Heng's vagus nerve plexus and vocal cord muscles. Then, he concentrated his energy and pointed a finger at Zhou Heng's Xinshu acupoint.

A half-baked, unrefined power surged forth, penetrating straight to the surface of the body.

This location will cause a surge in norepinephrine and a frenzy of activation of myocardial β1 receptors!
In addition, the extreme fear caused by the Soul-Suppressing Curse...

With both methods working together, Zhou Heng's adrenaline surged dozens of times, and his heart rate jumped to 250 bpm!

In an instant, Zhou Heng's eyes widened, staring intently at Ji Fuyou.

At this moment, he could even move his lips under the influence of the Soul-Suppressing Curse...

"Spare...spare my life..."

Unfortunately, Ji Fuyou dared not pause for even a moment. Whether martial artist or mental ability user, none were invincible at this stage!

If it hits, a single bullet can kill a high-level mental energy user on the spot!
In this situation, facing Zhou Heng who had already decided to kill him, Ji Fuyou had no choice but to follow suit and learn from him!
Zhou Heng's eyes were filled with fear, his neck veins were bulging like earthworms, and a "gurgling" sound came from his throat, which was the sound of foam from pulmonary edema rising to the trachea.

To avoid any further complications, Ji Fuyou forcefully covered his mouth, fearing that he would scream and force him to kill all the people who had been awakened.

Fortunately, this process did not last long.

After several seconds, Zhou Heng's eyes, which had been filled with fear and ferocity, gradually became unfocused.

His struggles and resistance, accompanied by resentment and despair, all fell into silence.

When he sensed that the man had completely lost his life, Ji Fuyou let out a soft breath.

He laid Zhou Heng's body down...

"No wounds were left."

He said something.

The half-life of adrenaline is only a few minutes.

No matter how you investigate, it's clear that Zhou Heng's poor health and staying up until 4 a.m. led to his sudden death.

Of course, he knew that he had handled the matter somewhat carelessly.

Professionals are highly likely to suspect it was a homicide.

But no way.

He wasn't a professional killer.

The limit is to leave no trace.

Besides, the Zhou family is in the real estate industry, and during the years of rapid development of real estate more than a decade ago, which person who made a fortune didn't have blood on their hands?

He certainly has more than one or two enemies, and it's unlikely that the investigation will trace back to them.

If the Zhou family, or the people from Yuedong Group, are truly relentless and prefer to kill the innocent rather than let the guilty go free, and come knocking on our door...

Then he had no choice but to make another trip to Yuedong Group.

Weeds and roots.

"I hope that my 'death from staying up all night' scene can be kept secret from the police department and the Zhou family."

Ji Fuyou didn't even bother to collect the watch on Zhou Heng's wrist, or any other valuables that might be in the house.

Reaching the window, he activated his spiritual power to sense the outside world, seized the opportunity, and leaped down from the second floor.

After leaving Villa No. 21, the floating creature quickly disappeared into the night sky.

After finding his electric scooter not far from Longhu Manor, Ji Fuyou quickly rode away and returned to Hexie Huayuan Community.

After opening the door and returning home, he carefully observed the sleeping conditions of Ji Qingqing and Yu Xiaoyu. When he realized that they were sleeping soundly and did not seem to have woken up in the middle of the night, he felt slightly relieved.

"The police have always been cowardly and bullying the weak. When dealing with superiors, even if they know the other party has committed murder, they still insist on evidence and the rule of law. But when dealing with ordinary people, they simply take them away forcibly if there is any suspicion, without even a summons or arrest warrant! Anyone who dares to question them is treated as obstructing official business and causing trouble..."

Ji Fuyou's thoughts drifted.

Therefore, to prevent the Zhou family from indiscriminately targeting all suspects, the best way is to make oneself a person in a higher position!
At least……

You need to have a certain status!

This deterred ordinary police officers from acting recklessly.

It's too late to befriend powerful figures now that we've secured our status.

Then you can only rely on yourself!

"Those big shots at the top really want people with mental abilities to enter the mist, hunt alien beasts, and obtain source crystals... Therefore, they are extremely lenient towards hunters. Once you become the captain of a hunting team, you will enjoy a privilege just like those big capitalists—lighter punishment for non-serious violations, and no punishment for the first non-serious violation."

If he remembered correctly, intermediate-level mental ability users could apply to form a hunter squad.
