American comic book: Start as a corpse collector, choose to cultivate immortality with technology

"Why don't you go home after get off work? What are you doing in a place like this?"

"This is hell's kitchen."

"Damn it, these scumbags are going too far, actually choosing a busy city center as the trading location."

As soon as the middle-aged policeman arrived, he began to roar like a machine gun.

Saw this scene.

Frank quietly put away Ryan's business card and kept quiet with his wife and daughter.

Only Gwen looked utterly helpless.

“Daddy, I’m fine.” Gwen first comforted her father, then awkwardly hugged Ryan’s arm and whispered, “Ryan, I forgot to tell you, my dad is the New York Police Department’s sheriff, so he’s a bit sensitive.”

Ryan blinked and said, "Wow, the NYPD sheriff, four stars?"

Gwen whispered, "No, three stars, it's the precinct sheriff."

Raine looked scared and said, "That's still pretty impressive. I slept with his daughter. They won't take me back to the police station and torture me, will they?"

Gwen: "..."

Teasing from Ryan, Gwen quickly started punching him with her little fists.

At this point, George Stacy's expression had become quite unpleasant.

That kid's got guts.

He even dared to flirt with his own daughter right in front of him.

Just as George Stacy was about to explode, fortunately, a large number of police officers had entered the park, and two detectives had already conducted a preliminary investigation of the scene and came to report to George.

The scene became somewhat chaotic.

All four, including Ryan, began to be questioned separately by the police.

After quite some time.

It was George Stacy who used her privileges to exempt Ryan and his three companions from going to the police station for questioning.

Even so, Gwen was kept under her father's control, who planned to take her directly home.

Ryan did not object to this, but simply gestured to Gwen to make a phone call.

Gwen turned and went to the car.

George Stacy finally had a chance to glare at Ryan before driving away.

Chapter 5 The Underground Palace Beneath the Elders' Hospital

Ryan didn't care about Gwen's departure or his father-in-law George's hostility.

To say that Ryan had any deep feelings for Gwen would be blatant nonsense; at best, it was only slightly better than lust at first sight.

As an immortal being destined to live forever, what's wrong with being a little fickle?

Now that the Cent family has emerged.

Then Gwen's transformation is not far off.

The Cent family is one of the corpse-collecting forces in the underground forces of New York City.

Decades ago, the Cent family was once a subordinate of the Sullivan family, to which Ryan belonged, and there was some kinship between them.

Ever since Ryan's adoptive grandfather took over the Sullivan family, the Cent family has chosen to establish its own independent household.

Over the decades, the Sullivan and Cent families have fought many battles.

However, in the Western world, people of Chinese descent are naturally ostracized.

More than a decade ago, the Cent family acquired a significant stake in the company. This stake, along with the subsequent acquisition of a large amount of property, allowed them to establish a powerful and influential financial relationship.

Furthermore, the Cent family is, on the surface, a minor shareholder of Osborn.

If it weren't for the unexpected encounter with Frank's affair...

Raine had originally planned to personally wipe out the Cent family after his date with Gwen ended today.

But Frank's appearance made Ryan change his mind.

The Cent family has a terrible reputation in New York City, having done plenty of things like murder, drug trafficking, and human trafficking.

If Frank wants to continue living a peaceful life with his wife, he will inevitably seek help from Ryan.

So after having dinner alone, Ryan didn't go home, but instead went to a private hospital near the beach in Manhattan.

New York-Presbyterian Hospital is a world-renowned private hospital.

When Ryan first arrived, the hospital was still controlled by a genius surgeon named James Taylor.

Later, Ryan discovered that James Taylor was actually the murderer in "The Detective of Tang Family 2".

Moreover, James Teller had already discovered that he had cancer and wanted to obtain some of the knowledge about Ryan's ancestors from the Sullivan family.

Therefore, after taking power in the Sullivan family, Ryan chose to strike first.

He was just a brilliant doctor with cancer.

Even if the other party possesses immense fame and wealth, how could they possibly be a mere pawn?

It took less than half a month.

Then James unexpectedly suffered a complication, which caused him to lose the game and die without uttering a sound.

Ryan, on the other hand, became the sole heir to the Presbyterian Hospital under the name of James's Chinese wife's 'brother'.

In a way, James could be considered a benefactor on Ryan's path of cultivation.

The establishment of the Presbyterian Hospital not only provided the initial Raine with a large amount of money, but also stabilized the family's power.

Moreover, James was very considerate and built a large underground palace beneath the Elders' Hospital, completing most of the cave dwelling that Rein wanted to build.

After arriving at the chairman's office of the Presbyterian Hospital.

Ryan instructed his tall, voluptuous secretary outside the door to wait for Frank's arrival.

Immediately afterward, Renn took the secret elevator from his office and quickly arrived at an underground palace.

I have to say, James is really a good person.

The other party also learned from his Chinese wife where he found a method for building a Five Elements Cave in the Dao of Earth Immortals, and built the entire underground palace in a way that perfectly matched Rein's ideas.

Within the entire underground palace, a Bagua-shaped mountain was built in the center, and the surrounding terrain was connected to form a deep abyss.

Meanwhile, at the top of the Bagua Mountain, there is a Tai Chi pattern, and in the center is a giant bronze alchemy furnace with an unknown history.

After taking over this place, Raine carved celestial symbols and cloud seals around the Bagua Mountain.

Then, using the large sums of money at his disposal, he installed a 64-sided spectral receiver in the hospital above.

In this way, Raine will be able to use technological means to gather the power of the stars.

After the power of those stars gathered, it was injected into the Bagua Mountain through the Heavenly Talisman and Cloud Seal.

The Bagua Mountain structure utilizes the power of the Tai Chi symbol at its summit to infuse the essence of countless stars into the central alchemical furnace.

The fire swirling within the alchemy furnace was the essence of the stars transformed into billowing spiritual energy.

It took two years to accumulate.

This underground palace has been enveloped in rich spiritual energy, almost transforming into a blessed land.

It is precisely because of this abundant supply of stellar spiritual energy.

That's why Raine chose the most powerful and profound Heavenly River True Law in the Luofu World as his fundamental law.

Otherwise, in this world where every wisp of extraordinary energy has an owner.

For Raine to think he could perfect the Qi Refining Chapter of the Heavenly River True Method within two years was simply a pipe dream.

However, this time, Raine came to the underground palace not for cultivation.

After completing the Qi cultivation process.

Now, the income from collecting corpses in Manhattan and Hell's Kitchen, along with the money from the Presbyterian Hospital, is no longer enough to support Ryan's continued spiritual practice.

After accumulating wealth for two years, Rennes plans to expand his influence and revenue.

Therefore, Ryan also needs some talent, such as Frank.

Frank will definitely go after the Nascent family tonight for the safety of his wife and children.

Although Frank is portrayed as incredibly powerful in many comics and movies, in reality, no one can guarantee that Frank is truly an immortal protagonist.

Therefore, Ryan is prepared to use some means to ensure Frank's safety.

Chapter 6 The Twelve Divine Bone Gods and Demons

Inside the underground palace, on Bagua Mountain, Raine did not touch the bronze alchemy furnace.

This alchemy furnace is a top-tier artifact that was smuggled from an Eastern country in the past, and it has been around for at least two thousand years.

Over the past two thousand years, countless individuals and forces have handled this alchemy furnace.
