Chapter 14 Dawn Has Arrived, and Will Never End (Please Add to Favorites and Recommend)

"The Way is like an empty vessel, yet its use is inexhaustible; it is profound and seems to be the origin of all things."

The grand and vast sound, like celestial music descending from the heavens, echoed in He Ao's ears.

His figure transformed into endless phantoms in an instant, then returned to one.

The Great Dao originates from emptiness, and transforms into infinity; it is like an abyss, and gives birth to all things.

The bull-like youth glared angrily at He Ao, whose figure was fluttering about. "So, you really are one of the chosen ones!"

He roared, swung his fists, and charged at He Ao. The fists flew through the air, making a whistling sound. "Watch me shatter your bluffing tricks."

However, He Ao kept his eyes closed, as if he hadn't seen the young man, and gently turned his body to the side.

The movement was extremely slow, as if it were a normal turn while walking down the street, yet it just so happened to dodge the young man's fist.

The young man seemed to have anticipated that he would dodge the move, so he changed his fist into a claw and turned around to strike at He Ao.

He Ao turned around, put his index and middle fingers together, and gently tapped the young man's wrist. The young man's movements froze, and he paused for a moment.

He felt a tingling sensation coming from his wrist, which immediately neutralized all his strength and momentum.

He tried to turn around and pull back his fist, but He Ao had already walked up to him without him noticing. He Ao's two fingers, held together, tapped his chest and abdomen several times. His body lost control in an instant, as if he had infinite strength but could not exert it.

The feeling was like sleep paralysis; no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't control his body to move even an inch.

Then He Ao grabbed his hand, which he hadn't yet pulled back, turned around, took a half step back, lowered his body, and executed an over-the-shoulder throw in one smooth motion.

With a loud bang, the young man was thrown to the ground.

This sudden stimulation also helped him recover from the terrifying 'sleep paralysis' feeling. He tried to move his body, but felt numb all over and couldn't muster any strength.

At this moment, He Ao had already retreated to the door of the study.

It's not that he didn't want to keep showing off, it's just that his... cheat code expired.

The little bit of power that Zhu Guo had left after clearing his body had been completely used up in the previous movements.

"gas···"

He Ao sensed the patterns of those energy flows. Following the description in the little book, after circulating the energy along specific paths, he could vaguely sense something called 'qi'.

This aura is subtle and indistinct, like a girl playing the zither behind a gauze curtain in ancient times. You can see her graceful figure and hear her playing beautiful music, but you can't see her true appearance.

This mysterious energy was the power that supported the moves he just used. These moves were actually just pictures drawn in the book, but only with the support of that energy could they truly have power.

After He Ao possessed 'Qi', he was also able to vaguely sense the 'Qi' of others, or rather, the energy flow of others was not 'Qi' but a similar energy flow.

The few blows he just struck the young man severed the flow of energy within his body. Although the young man himself might not be aware of the patterns of his own energy flow, once his vital points were hit, that energy would...

Like water flowing through a broken pipe, it can run wildly and even cause harm to the body.

The young man was lying on the ground, unable to get up.

He had the opportunity to kill the young man, but he did not.

If the attack had killed the young man in one move, then it would have been self-defense.

After making a second move, it could be considered excessive self-defense or even manslaughter.

There's no need for that. He Ao is a law-abiding and good person.

He slipped away to enter the study.

Although the study was small, it was surprisingly spacious. It was reinforced with two layers of brick walls on all four sides, with thick steel plates sandwiched between the brick walls.

The study door is also the newest and best security door on the market, unlike the front door which is easily broken open.

This is like a small safe house; it should be enough to hold out until Captain Liu arrives.

However, just as He Ao was about to enter the house, a loud alarm suddenly sounded outside.

Team Leader Liu arrived a little earlier than he had expected.

"what!!!!"

The young man, who had just been lying on the ground, ignored the soreness and numbness in his body and quickly got up.

He wanted to go down the stairs, but he could vaguely hear footsteps going up the stairs.

He looked around and rushed toward the large window in the living room.

"Eh?"

He Ao quickly walked over, waved, and was just about to say something.

The young man shuddered, thinking that Heo was going to gang up on him with the police, so he scrambled over the window and crashed to the ground.

"This is the fifth floor..."

He Ao lowered his hand, somewhat bewildered.

Don't fall and die...

He quickly leaned out the window to look.

All that could be heard were booming and thumping sounds.

The young man smashed through the rain shelters of several downstairs neighbors before crashing to the ground with a thud.

This is the back of the building. Captain Liu and his team haven't arrived yet. The young man glanced around and, seeing no police, quickly got up and scrambled towards a nearby electric scooter.

Then he pulled out a small gadget that He Ao couldn't see clearly, started the electric scooter, and drove off.

Seeing that he was alright, He Ao breathed a sigh of relief.

If he falls to his death here, Heo might get involved in some other things.

It would be troublesome if it turned out to be manslaughter.

This guy may not seem very bright, but he's pretty tough.

He Ao watched the young man's back recede into the distance, watching the muscles on his body gradually shrink, unsure whether he had actively deactivated the skill or if the skill's duration had expired.

He turned around and looked at the battlefield. Several tiles on the ground had been broken by the young man, and the old security door had been dented in several places.

hiss--

Replacing the security door and the tiles costs money.

He's a good person, what did he do to deserve this?

Just then, he noticed a white object pressed down by shredded clothing on a broken tile. It looked like a small card, so he went over and picked it up.

This is a white card, about the size of an ID card. The card seems to have been treated with a special process. When He Ao looks at the card from the front, the card reflects a faint, warm glow. The picture on the card is of a rising sun from the sky. But when he tilts the card, the card turns into a gray, dark night scene.

When the card changes from angled to upright, the night scene will slowly appear.

The scene gradually transforms into the sight of the rising sun.

"interesting."

He turned the card over, and on the back was a short message.

Dawn has come, and it will last forever.

It looks like an identity card from some clandestine organization.

Normally, the more impressive the name and slogan, the weaker the actual combat effectiveness.

Just then, hurried footsteps came from the side, and Captain Liu led a group of police officers in.

"Hey, where is everyone?" Captain Liu put his hand on his hip and looked around.

“They ran away,” He Ao pointed out the window, “They heard you coming, jumped out the window, and stole Sister Li’s electric scooter from the sixth floor and ran away.”

"That's good," Captain Liu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. He looked at He Ao and asked, "Are you alright?"

"It's nothing," He Ao nodded, then casually asked, "Captain Liu, when are we going to collect the bonus?"

He needs money to replace the security door and the tiles.

Team Leader Liu didn't quite follow He Ao's train of thought for a moment. Weren't they talking about the criminals? How did they suddenly start talking about money?

He then glanced at the mess around him and realized what was going on. "The money should be available by tonight. I need to ask you about the details of what happened this afternoon. Why don't you come with us to the police station?"

He was somewhat worried that the person might return, and that He Ao would get hurt without their protection.

"Okay!"

He Ao nodded decisively.

While He Ao was talking with Captain Liu, a figure in a black trench coat went around to the back of the building. He glanced at the direction where the electric scooter had disappeared, and then looked up at the damaged awnings on the first to fourth floors.

Through these twisted and deformed awnings, one can almost see the young man awkwardly jumping from the fifth floor.

Although the 'Bull' isn't very bright, he's very strong.

He wouldn't be so flustered by the sound of sirens.

"Come on, stand in the middle of us, let's take a picture."

Team Leader Liu gestured for He Ao to stand between him and his colleague.

"Hey, Captain Liu, isn't there some kind of banner or plaque for your act of bravery?"

He Ao glanced at the two police officers on his left and right. Usually, when someone does something brave, they take a picture to commemorate it, but in the past, they would receive a banner in recognition of their bravery.

He feels like all he needs now is a silver bracelet and a yellow jacket to be on the legal channel.

"It's alright, it's alright. The banner isn't finished yet, we'll just Photoshop one on for you later." Captain Liu chuckled and pointed to the old camera in front of him. "Come on, look at the lens."

He Ao always felt that the yellow jacket and silver bracelet could also be photoshopped in.
