548: Chapter 521: How Could I Possibly Hold Back?
Miao Chengda had spoken about the Air Gu controlling people through their blood when Li Chen started thinking of a way out.
Initially, he hadn’t figured out exactly how to break free from Miao Chengda’s control, but Miao Chengda’s words had given him an idea.
If this so-called Air Gu controlled through blood, what if he let out his blood?
Then, he started doing it.
“You…how could you possibly…” Miao Chengda looked at Li Chen in disbelief, stamring as he spoke.
“How could I move, you wonder?” Li Chen grabbed Miao Chengda’s hand and began to gasp intensely.
By then, his clothing was completely dyed red with blood, a consequence of his self-induced bloodletting.
For Li Chen, losing so blood was not a problem, as he could replenish it given ti.
But with the current situation, if he didn’t find a way to break free, he was indeed in trouble.
“Wasn’t it you who taught ?” A smile appeared on Li Chen’s face, but as he opened his mouth, another mouthful of blood sprayed out.
“You said, the Air Gu controls through my blood, so if I release so blood and it can’t control anymore, wouldn’t that solve the problem?”
Saying this, Li Chen grinned at Miao Chengda.
However, that smile, with his teeth stained with blood, looked unspeakably sinister and terrifying.
Seeing Li Chen’s smile, Miao Chengda instinctively pulled away from his grip and quickly backed off.
But after retreating, he realized sothing was amiss.
The other side was the King of the Netherworld!
How could he possibly have broken free from the King’s control so easily?
However, the next mont, Li Chen had a sharp blade in his hand.
Before Miao Chengda could react, Li Chen drove the knife harshly into his own chest.
“Pfft!”
Another mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out from Li Chen’s mouth.
“Li Chen!!”
“Brother-in-law!!”
Seeing Li Chen’s condition, tears ford in the eyes of the two girls as they began to shout loudly.
anwhile, several mbers of the Lin Family had finally regained their composure on the ground, their eyes wide with shock at the scene.
This man was rciless, not just to others but to himself as well!
And he took it to a terrifying extent.
If his opponent controlled him through his blood, then he would use bloodletting to free himself from that control!
Initially, Li Chen’s body had still been trembling.
That was because the Air Gu in his body hadn’t been completely expelled, but so of the fresh blood he forced out had restored so of his mobility.
However, as the knife went down, blood spurted wildly out of Li Chen, his body seed to gradually stabilize.
“Don’t worry,” Li Chen’s voice was hoarse as he looked toward the two won, his voice sounding harsh like an elderly man stepping into his twilight years.
“I avoided the vital parts with this knife.
It’s just a bit more blood.
I won’t die from it.”
But the two won weren’t comforted by Li Chen’s words.
Although they stopped talking to avoid disturbing Li Chen, tears kept rolling down from the corners of their eyes.
Steadily standing up, Li Chen spit out a mouthful of pitch-black blood phlegm, as the accumulated blood in his throat made it difficult for him to speak now.
Moreover, due to the significant blood loss, his complexion gradually beca pale.
“Hiss!”
The knife embedded in Li Chen’s chest was pulled out with one stretch of his hand, bringing with it a few drops of fresh blood.
Looking at Miao Chengda, who seed to be completely in shock, “Can we continue our previous conversation now?”
Miao Chengda, seeing Li Chen’s body completely soaked in fresh red blood, a deep fear showed in his eyes as he turned and ran.
But before he could step out of the room, a hand imdiately grasped his neck from behind.
“Bang!!”
Li Chen’s arm surged with power as he grabbed Miao Chengda’s neck from behind and fiercely slamd his head onto the ground.
Even the hard smooth floor tiles cracked visibly from the impact.
Grabbing an already sowhat befuddled Miao Chengda, Li Chen slowly lifted him up.
Looking at Miao Chengda’s horrified expression, Li Chen grinned, revealing his blood-stained teeth, and said, “It seems I didn’t agree to let you leave, did I?
Isn’t it a bit rude of you to walk away like that?”
Saying that, Li Chen landed a direct punch in Miao Chengda’s abdon.
“Oof!”
Miao Chengda’s eyes bulged, his mouth wide open, his body resembled a fish out of water.
“This punch is for your rudeness.”
“Bang!”
Another punch.
“This one’s for your arrogance just now.”
“Bang!”
“And this one is because you poisoned.”
“This punch is for the people of the Lin Family.”
“This punch is for the deceased fake Lin Dong.”
All Miao Chengda wanted to do was curse loudly, but his body couldn’t muster any strength.
Under Li Chen’s terrifying punch, all he could feel was endless pain.
“This punch is for my wife and sister-in-law.”
“This punch is just for myself.”
“This punch…
this punch is because I felt like it!”
When Li Chen finished delivering a series of old punches, Miao Chengda had completely turned into a pig’s head.
“Okay, shall we continue with our talk now?” Li Chen said, looking at Miao Chengda who had no strength left to fight back, “Who are you, and what exactly do you want?”
“I…
I just wanted to gain control of the Lin Family’s power and then I saw you here, I thought I might as well try to control you too…” Miao Chengda’s voice was sowhat unclear as he was severely beaten by Li Chen.
“Are you sure?” Li Chen narrowed his eyes and questioned again after hearing Miao Chengda’s words.
“I, yes, that’s it, is there any other reason?
I acted against you all for this reason!”
“Alright then.” Li Chen nodded his head.
Just as Miao Chengda sighed in relief, Li Chen looked at him and reached out a hand, grabbing his neck.
“Then, it’s ti to say goodbye.”
As he spoke, Li Chen’s fingers suddenly exerted force.
“Crack!”
Miao Chengda, dead!
The so-called villains die from talking too much, and that’s the reason.
If Miao Chengda hadn’t been so confident, revealing to Li Chen that the Air Gu was controlled through the blood, Li Chen wouldn’t have thought of bleeding to remove the Gu Poison.
But now, even if Miao Chengda regretted it, it was too late, for he no longer had a chance to regret.
Casually tossing aside Miao Chengda’s corpse, Li Chen leaned against a nearby table leg, began to breathe heavily.
After panting for a while, Li Chen finally cald down, falling silent.
His physical condition was very poor, although his injuries were not too serious, his body was very weak due to excessive blood loss, and he even started feeling a bit dizzy.
The Gu bug is a very magical creature,
So, once parasitic, live directly inside the host, sharing life and death with the host; if the host lives, they live, and if the host dies, they die imdiately.
Others, however, do not tie their survival to that of their hosts because their life and death are in the hands of the Gu Master.
Their life and death are completely controlled by the Gu Master, and once the Gu Master dies, they will die too.
Such is the case with this Air Gu.
With Miao Chengda’s death, the Air Gu naturally lost its activeness, and so mbers of the Lin Family gradually regained their mobility.
Lin Yi and Lin Xiaoxiao, the mont they regained mobility, rushed to Li Chen’s side, each supporting him, “Are you alright?”
“Quick, answer us!”
“…”
“Could you stop shaking .” Li Chen weakly lifted his head, looking at the two won beside him, “I was fine, but if you keep shaking like this, you really are going to shake sothing out of place.”
“Pfft!”
Hearing Li Chen’s words, both won broke into laughter.
Then quickly began to call out to the Lin Family people who had regained their mobility, “What are you waiting for?
Hurry and call a doctor, can’t you see how much blood Li Chen has lost?!”
Hearing the won’s words, many of the Lin Family people snapped out of their daze and hastily took out their phones to call for help to manage the situation here.
It wasn’t just a doctor they needed; they also needed so other hands, as there was more to handle here than just Li Chen’s injuries—there were also the deaths of the fake Lin Dong and Miao Chengda.
Likewise, they needed to notify other Lin Family mbers who weren’t here today and remind every Lin Family person to keep their mouths shut.
This matter was far from over, everyone knew that.
“Ouch, ouch!
Gently, gently!”
Li Chen cried out in pain as he lay on the bed.
“Feeling the pain now?
Why didn’t I see you crying out when you were playing hero?” Lin Yi gave Li Chen a glance and remarked.
“Didn’t you say that was playing the hero?
How could a hero cry out in pain in public?” Li Chen couldn’t help but laugh, although his face was still pale as he lay in bed, almost blending into the white sheets.
“But indeed, my brother-in-law is a hero,” Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly said.
Her eyes were still a bit red.
Lin Yi’s eyes were also a bit red.
She stopped talking and very carefully, tenderly applied dicine to Li Chen’s wounds.
“Next ti, you’d better not do this again,” Lin Yi warned Li Chen.
“Seeing you guys like that, how could I hold back?” Li Chen smiled again, his smile sowhat carefree.
If he could hold back in that situation, he wouldn’t be himself.
Lin Yi rolled her eyes, knowing she couldn’t win the argunt with Li Chen, and stopped talking.
However, she didn’t see that the hand Li Chen was hiding under the covers was tightly grasped by Lin Xiaoxiao.
