The black van was parked by the side of the road.
There was no one around, and it was quiet. Even the occasional chirping of birds or crickets only appeared every few minutes.
Out here in the middle of nowhere, let alone in the middle of the night,
Even during the day,
Few people ever came here!
At this time;
In the black van.
Under the dim blue-violet lights, Ye Tian Ming was wearing a transparent, plastic raincoat, a protective hat, and a transparent face mask that could be lowered to cover his entire face.
To avoid getting blood splattered all over his face!
And in front of him was the Old Master, who had been reset to factory settings.
He had just woken up at this moment.
He was dizzy and disoriented, unable to figure out his current situation.
"Help! Someone, help me!"
He was mumbling incoherently, hoping someone would come to his rescue.
Then Ye Tian Ming walked over and gave him a hard slap.
To wake him up.
After being slapped, the Old Master finally regained consciousness.
He looked around and realized he was in a small space, probably in a truck or something.
He also saw Ye Tian Ming standing next to him.
The Old Master didn't know Ye Tian Ming.
But that didn't stop him from knowing what Ye Tian Ming was going to do next.
"Young man, do you want money? I have a lot of money, I can give it all to you!"
In the face of survival, what was money?
For the sake of his life, the Old Master was willing to give up all the money he had earned in his lifetime.
He just hoped that his old life could end naturally!
Instead of dying on this cold operating table.
"I don't need money." Ye Tian Ming said calmly.
With a net worth of over one hundred million, he certainly didn't need money.
So the Old Master's offer held no appeal for him.
Money?
Ye Tian Ming could now openly say he didn't like money and wasn't interested in it!
After all, to him, one hundred million was not much different from ten hundred million.
He couldn't spend it all even with his spending habits.
Therefore;
What did he need so much money for?
Enough was enough.
And the Old Master, hearing Ye Tian Ming say he didn't need money, had a grim face and a gnashing look.
"I'll give you two hundred million!"
The Old Master said.
Ye Tian Ming shook his head and said nothing, turning around to grab a sharp knife from his tool bag.
Seeing the knife, the Old Master's face turned pale.
"Who? Who sent you to kill me? At least let me die knowing why!"
The Old Master asked angrily.
Ye Tian Ming held the knife suspended above the Old Master's heart.
"No one sent me to kill you, it's just me."
He said calmly.
"Why? Did I offend you? Do we have a grudge?"
The Old Master couldn't believe it. He had always thought someone had hired this killer to take him out. As for the reason? It was too simple, out in the world, wasn't it just you killing me and me killing you?
His Hong Ying Society was doing well, it was only natural that others would be envious and want to eliminate him. That was the norm.
The Old Master had done that kind of thing himself.
He was too familiar with it!
However;
He never imagined that the root of it all was actually this young man in front of him?
"You talk too much, and I think it would be better for you to die without knowing why."
Ye Tian Ming said calmly, looking at the Old Master with a smile in his eyes.
"Damn it! AAAAAAAAH!!!"
Hearing those words, the Old Master was instantly enraged. He was about to shout a string of curses, but then Ye Tian Ming plunged the knife into his heart!
Having your heart pierced wouldn't cause any excruciating pain, just a moment of coldness and numbness.
The reason the Old Master screamed was entirely because he was scared, terrified!
"Be quiet, it'll all be over soon."
Ye Tian Ming said softly.
About ten seconds later.
The Old Master closed his eyes and his head slumped to the side.
He passed out!
Then Ye Tian Ming pulled out the knife and turned to grab other tools.
Ding!
【Congratulations host for successfully releasing the target "Old Master", reward: Time Pause Lv.1!】
？？？
Ye Tian Ming, who was disinfecting the tools, was instantly stunned.
He even stopped what he was doing.
He confirmed again and again that the skill he had just gotten was indeed Time Pause, not anything else.
"Holy crap!!!"
Ye Tian Ming was instantly shocked.
Followed by endless joy!
This was Time Pause!
Countless movies and TV shows had already demonstrated the power of this ability.
Pause time, and the whole world only you can move.
At that moment;
You are the god of this world!
And now..
Ye Tian Ming had actually gotten such a skill from the Old Master?
This old man was so valuable?
Ye Tian Ming's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.
Then;
He quickly opened his skill panel to check the description of this skill.
