Your Highness’ Mansion was dead silent. All three of them were stunned.
Even though Lin Hao had just been on a rampage, they had only been shocked. But for Lin Hao to dare to crush Duan Xinyu to death—that horrified them!
Wenren Yuxin and Chen Qian looked at Lin Hao as if they were seeing him for the first ti.
Lin Xinran’s body was even trembling slightly.
At that mont, they all thought of the sa person—Lin Wu!
Not even Lin Wu, that peerless prodigy of his generation who viewed all his contemporaries as nothing, would have dared to be as brazen as Lin Hao.
"Lin... Brother Lin, you have to run." Chen Qian’s mouth was terribly dry as he spoke.
By crushing him, Lin Hao had essentially brought the heavens crashing down.
Wenren Yuxin’s beautiful eyes flickered. She said nothing, her thoughts a mystery.
"Why should I run? I’m not the one who killed Duan Xinyu," Lin Hao said with a placid smile.
Chen Qian was confused, then his eyes flashed with realization.
Wenren Yuxin shot her head up, her beautiful eyes shining.
Lin Xinran’s expression, however, changed drastically.
They had guessed Lin Hao’s intention.
Lin Xinran tried to flee, only to slam into an invisible wall of energy.
Those words from Lin Hao ant she wouldn’t be escaping his clutches.
Lin Hao took a single step and appeared directly in front of Lin Xinran.
By now, Lin Xinran was so terrified by Lin Hao’s thods that she had completely forgotten she even knew martial arts.
Lin Hao pointed a finger, and Lin Xinran was instantly immobilized.
"Wh-what are you going to do?!" Lin Xinran asked, her voice trembling.
Lin Hao had dared to kill the illustrious Eighth Prince; she was nothing in comparison.
’Your Highness’ Mansion is sealed off. No one on the outside knows what happened in here. When the ti cos, he can just bla my death on what happened in the mansion, and there will be no evidence...’
The more Lin Xinran thought about it, the more terrified she beca.
Across from her, Lin Hao wore a brilliant smile.
But the more he smiled, the more terrifying Lin Xinran found him.
"I’m a kind person. Ruining a beautiful flower like you... it’s not sothing I usually do." Finally, Lin Hao spoke.
As he spoke, he produced a handful of pills as if by magic. There were red ones, green ones, black ones... a vibrant, multi-colored assortnt.
Fiddling with the pills, Lin Hao muttered to himself, "The Gut-Wrencher Pill. After you take it, your intestines turn black and stick together, and you eventually die from ceaseless abdominal pain. A bit too cruel, perhaps. The Thunder God Pill... after taking it, your organs rumble like thunder before finally bursting. That’s a bit better, but still cruel..."
Each ti Lin Hao described a pill, he would shake his head and put it away. He nad no fewer than ten types, and each description that left his lips made one’s skin crawl.
Finally, Lin Hao picked up a red pill, his eyes lighting up. "The Romantic Pill. For beauty and a youthful complexion. It’s perfect for you."
After speaking, Lin Hao pinched Lin Xinran’s chin and shoved the pill into her mouth.
The pill dissolved the mont it entered her mouth. Before Lin Xinran even had ti to react, it was already working its way into her system.
Lin Xinran was terrified. She refused to believe the pill Lin Hao gave her was for enhancing her beauty.
"What’s with that expression? It really does enhance your beauty, but it does require a small price." After Lin Xinran swallowed the pill, Lin Hao released her from his hold and spoke in an offhand manner.
The more casually Lin Hao acted, the more terrified Lin Xinran beca.
"Wh-what did you give ?" She bent over, trying to vomit, but of course, nothing ca up.
"After taking this pill, there’s a one-year incubation period. Then, you’ll develop an incredible craving for n. You’ll need to have your yin and yang balanced every day, and it can’t be with the sa man. But balancing yin and yang is the best way to keep your skin beautiful, am I right?" Lin Hao said with a broad grin.
Hearing this, Lin Xinran cried out and nearly fainted.
A different man every day... the re thought was horrifying to her.
Imdiately, she heard Lin Hao’s voice again: "If you ever miss a day, or if you use the sa man, your body will begin to age and fester, starting with your face. Also, if you don’t want to wait a whole year and are eager to start enhancing your beauty, I can trigger it at any ti... with just a thought."
As he said this, Lin Hao’s voice deepened, and a strange red light flashed in his eyes.
Across from him, Lin Xinran’s body shuddered. Her face flushed, her eyes filled with lust, and she started walking toward Lin Hao.
Just then, the red light in Lin Hao’s eyes vanished.
Lin Xinran stopped in her tracks. With a startled cry, she collapsed bonelessly to the ground.
A mont ago, a powerful urge had surged through her, a desperate need for a man. Even if he had been a beggar, she wouldn’t have been able to refuse him.
She knew Lin Hao hadn’t been lying.
A woman’s reputation and appearance were the two things she prized most.
The pill Lin Hao had given her could destroy both at once. Lin Xinran felt as if she had been plunged into a bottomless abyss.
"Lin Hao, what is it you really want from ?" But this Lin Xinran was no ordinary woman. It didn’t take long for her to force herself calm and ask the question.
’Since Lin Hao doesn’t want to kill , he must want to control to achieve so goal.’
"How did the Eighth Prince die?" Lin Hao asked, ignoring her question.
After a brief stun, Lin Xinran replied, "He wanted to kill you and sent out his death-sworn soldiers. As it happened, one of them practiced the vile Blood Transformation and Bone Refining Skill and transford into a giant. That giant killed everyone on sight. The Eighth Prince was killed by it, and the rest of us fought for our lives to finally slay it."
Hearing her story, Lin Hao couldn’t help but applaud.
Her story was a mix of truth and lies, but it was perfectly plausible, sounding for all the world like the truth.
"What else do you want to do?" Lin Xinran asked.
"You’re the grand young miss of the Lin family. How could I dare ask you to do anything for ?" Lin Hao said with a smile, shaking his head.
Lin Xinran bit her lip and said nothing more.
"Let’s go. This place is about to collapse." Lin Hao ignored her and turned to Chen Qian and Wenren Yuxin.
The mont he spoke, the entire area began to shake.
Then, the spot where Duan Xinyu had died was the first to collapse, and his body was instantly buried.
Behind Lin Hao, Lin Xinran’s eyes filled with utter horror.
She knew this was Lin Hao’s handiwork, yet he hadn’t seed to do anything at all.
Such thods were simply inconceivable.
RUMBLE! RUMBLE!
The area began to shake more violently. Lin Xinran took a step and realized the invisible wall of energy was gone.
Heedless of anything else, Lin Xinran’s figure flickered as she dashed outside, vanishing in an instant.
"Brother Lin, you’re really sothing else. Lin Xinran is as proud as a peacock, but you scared the life out of her. That pill, though... it was a bit much." Seeing Lin Xinran disappear, Chen Qian gave Lin Hao a thumbs-up.
Lin Hao just smiled. "Actually, the pill doesn’t have any of those nasty effects at all."
"What?!" Chen Qian’s eyes shot wide open, and then he burst out laughing.
With the threat of that pill, Lin Xinran was sure to behave herself for a long ti.
If Lin Xinran ever found out that Lin Hao was just bluffing, she would probably go berserk with rage.
Nearby, Wenren Yuxin’s beautiful eyes shimred as her understanding of Lin Hao reached a new level.
’Lin Hao’s actions seed brazen, but every step was calculated for victory. He had planned everything out long in advance. Thank goodness she wasn’t his enemy.’
