“Little girl!”
Lin Hao snatched the blue brick from Lin Qingxin’s hand and asked with great concern, “What’s wrong? Did Lin Yuanshan and the others bully you?”
Lin Qingxin looked at Lin Hao before her and was stunned.
For a moment, she thought it was an illusion.
The next second, all the grievances and torment she had suffered surged out like a dam breaking.
She threw herself into Lin Hao’s arms and couldn’t help but burst into tears.
“Brother Lin Hao!”
“Brother Lin Hao, it’s you, it’s really you!”
“Wuwuwu…”
Lin Qingxin hugged Lin Hao tightly, crying continuously.
Her hands held Lin Hao very tightly, as if afraid he would disappear in the blink of an eye.
Lin Hao looked at his junior sister in his arms, her cries filled with grievance, and felt immense heartache.
However, his heartache was quickly replaced by rage.
As he scanned the room, he noticed only a bedding on the floor.
There was nothing else.
It was obvious that his junior sister had been locked up here.
Lin Hao took a deep breath, temporarily suppressing his anger, then raised his hand to rub Lin Qingxin’s head and said gently, “Tell me what happened, don’t be afraid.”
Lin Qingxin sniffled and wiped her tears, then choked out, “They wanted to marry me to Big Brother, but I refused, so they locked me in here.”
“In the past few days, they’ve been forcing me every day, and I couldn’t take it anymore, so… so I decided to commit suicide.”
“But they locked me in here, so I couldn’t even kill myself.”
“However, heaven rewards the persistent, and I still found a way to commit suicide.”
“Brother Lin Hao, look.”
As Lin Qingxin spoke, she turned and squatted down, pulling away the bedding with a flourish as if showing off.
There was a gap under the bedding, where a blue brick had been.
Lin Hao’s heart ached. He glanced around and noticed that the walls of the room were covered with something like sponge.
Only then did Lin Hao understand what his junior sister Qingxin meant by not being able to commit suicide.
Lin Hao forced down his heartache and looked at Lin Qingxin, “How did you pry this brick loose?”
Lin Qingxin seemed to have forgotten about suicide and giggled, “I searched around and suddenly found that this blue brick was a bit loose, so I tried to pry it loose every night.”
“It only took two or three days, and I actually managed to pry this brick loose.”
“Brother Lin Hao, don’t you think I’m amazing?”
“Yes, our little girl is amazing.” Lin Hao wanted to laugh but couldn’t, so he could only reach out and touch Lin Qingxin’s forehead.
“Brother Lin Hao, you’re still calling me a little girl, but I’m already eighteen!” Lin Qingxin pouted, pretending to be a little unhappy.
Hearing Lin Qingxin say that, Lin Hao realized that his junior sister’s height had reached his chin.
He was 1.8 meters tall, and his junior sister was at least 1.7 meters.
Her appearance hadn’t changed much; she was still as pretty and cute as before.
It was just that her body looked a bit thin.
“Brother Lin Hao, what’s wrong?” Lin Qingxin was startled when Lin Hao suddenly fell silent, thinking he was angry.
“Nothing.”
Lin Hao rubbed his junior sister’s forehead, then said coldly to Lin Yuanshan, Lin Yuanqiao, Lin Yuanting, and the others who had been eavesdropping outside the door, “Have you heard enough? If you have, let Lin Qingsong come here to die.”
Lin Yuanshan, standing outside the door, his expression changed drastically upon hearing Lin Hao’s words.
His instinct was to curse at Lin Hao, but the words stopped on his lips as he forcibly suppressed them.
He glanced in the direction of Lin Hao in the house and then gritted his teeth, “I’ll go call Song’er over, but you have to listen to my explanation when he gets here!”
With that, Lin Yuanshan turned to leave.
However, he wasn’t actually going to call his son Lin Qingsong, but rather to call his son and tell him to escape quickly.
Now that things had reached this point, the marriage with Lin Qingxin was definitely off.
Since there was no hope, it was better to let his son escape quickly.
As long as his son escaped, he didn’t believe Lin Hao could really kill him.
He was Lin Hao’s own uncle.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuanshan turned to leave.
But after taking just two steps, Lin Hao’s voice came from behind him.
“Don’t forget, I am also a member of the Lin family, and the Lin family’s blood flows through me. You must know the power of the Lin family’s forbidden Bloodline Curse.”
“So, don’t think about letting Lin Qingsong escape.”
“Even if he flees to the ends of the earth, killing him is as easy as lifting a finger for me.”
Lin Yuanshan’s face changed drastically upon hearing Lin Hao’s words, and his footsteps immediately stopped.
At this moment, his heart was like a stormy sea.
Bloodline Curse!
Lin Hao actually learned the Bloodline Curse too!
Impossible!
This is impossible!
Lin Yuanshan, as the eldest son of the Lin family, naturally knew what the Bloodline Curse Lin Hao mentioned was.
The Bloodline Curse, full name Bloodline Curse Technique, was one of the forbidden arts passed down in the Lin family.
The reason it was a forbidden art was that this technique was too bizarre and vicious.
And its function was simple.
Just as its name suggested, the caster could remotely kill anyone through the connection between the same bloodline.
Moreover, the person being killed would die as if from a sudden illness, unable to detect any danger, and others would not be able to track the caster.
Furthermore, the higher the caster’s realm, the more people they could kill through the Bloodline Curse.
For example, the Lin family had fifty to sixty close relatives.
If Lin Hao’s realm was high enough, he could kill all fifty to sixty members of the Lin family in Modu through the Bloodline Curse.
And these fifty to sixty members of the Lin family would not know who killed them until the moment they died, nor would they be able to trace the murderer.
Lin Yuanshan stopped in his tracks, unable to advance or retreat, as he thought about these things.
At this moment.
Lin Yuanqiao and Lin Yuanting, who had also heard Lin Hao’s words, immediately pointed at Lin Hao and cursed.
“Lin Hao, you’re too malicious!”
“You dare to use a forbidden art like the Bloodline Curse, are you still a disciple of the Lin family!”
“Did the old man teach you all his skills just so you could poison the younger generation of the Lin family!?”
“Rebellious son! Simply a rebellious son!”
“Do you still have the Lin family in your eyes!?”
Lin Hao looked at his two uncles and third uncle, who were full of anger and talking incessantly, his expression icy.
Now they considered him a member of the Lin family?!
In the past, the entire Lin family wished they could eat his flesh and drink his blood.
From childhood to adulthood, he knew of at least five attempts to frame and murder him.
If his grandfather hadn’t protected him all along, he feared he would have died at the hands of these three good uncles long ago.
Thinking of this, Lin Hao sneered, then said with an icy tone, “One more word of nonsense, and you’ll all die!”
