"You bastard, kill me if you want, but don't think about getting my body," Song Yao's face darkened as she glared at Lin Xiaotian.
"Heh heh, what are you thinking about? I said I want you to work for me, to help me with tasks. As for that other thing you're thinking of, I have no interest in you," Lin Xiaotian said dismissively. He then took out another talisman from his person, chanted an incantation, and several ant-like black worms moved on the talisman.
He placed the talisman on Song Yao's forehead, and Song Yao's consciousness seemed to fade, her entire being becoming dazed. Lin Xiaotian continued his incantation, and several rays of light flashed from the talisman. A hint of green light gradually appeared in Song Yao's eyes.
A moment later, Lin Xiaotian removed the talisman and calmly asked Song Yao, "Miss Song, are you willing to tell me truthfully now who is above you?"
"He is the Pavilion Master of Ciyun Pavilion, and also my second uncle, Song Zhenshan," Song Yao said unconsciously.
"Ciyun Pavilion? Second Uncle?" Lin Xiaotian's heart trembled. He hadn't expected the Pavilion Master of Ciyun Pavilion to be Song Yao's second uncle! Could Ciyun Pavilion also be closely related to the Tianluo Diwang?
Coming back to his senses, he continued to question Song Yao about this matter. Song Yao nodded seriously and said, "Yes, my second uncle is also a member of the Tianluo Diwang, and one of its core members."
"Ciyun Pavilion controls Songzhou City's largest entertainment market, with numerous underground forces. For years, it has made significant contributions to the Tianluo Diwang."
"And who is he serving?" Lin Xiaotian pondered seriously and continued to ask.
"I don't know. I only work for my second uncle. If I betray him, the people of Tianluo Diwang will not let me go," Song Yao replied truthfully.
"So that's how it is. So everything about you, including seeking revenge for Song Hui, was all your second uncle's command, wasn't it?" Lin Xiaotian, having a general understanding of the situation, asked directly.
Song Yao nodded seriously and replied, "Yes, my second uncle told me to use the Liu family to kill you and avenge my brother. After I failed my mission, my second uncle found a Void Realm expert to help me deal with you, but that plan also failed."
"Heh, your second uncle is quite persistent. It seems I need to find some time to meet him." Lin Xiaotian, having obtained a major clue, gently patted Song Yao's shoulder. Song Yao suddenly woke up.
She opened her eyes and looked at Lin Xiaotian curiously, asking, "What did you do to me? You bastard, you didn't take advantage of me while I was unconscious, did you?"
"Don't worry, I'm not interested in your scrawny frame. Go back and tell your second uncle that I, Lin Xiaotian, will definitely come for him. Let him prepare a grand feast to welcome me."
"I have other matters to attend to now, so I'll be leaving first." Lin Xiaotian turned and left潇洒ly, without further troubling Song Yao. She was merely a tool of Ciyun Pavilion, and killing her wouldn't bring him peace. To find peace, he had to confront her second uncle. However, it was getting late. After leaving the entertainment club, he returned directly to Chu Corporation to find Chu Nianxue and take her out for a candlelit dinner.
Meanwhile, Song Yao's expression became extremely grave after Lin Xiaotian left. She didn't know how Lin Xiaotian had learned about her second uncle. Could that brat Lin Xiaotian read people's minds?
It wasn't until Liu Song on the ground gradually recovered that he came over to tell her everything that had just happened. Upon learning that she had fallen into Lin Xiaotian's trap, her face flushed with anger, and she clenched her fists, saying, "That bastard, how dare he use me! I hope I never see him again."
"Miss Song, I'm afraid I can't help you complete the mission anymore. Lin Xiaotian has sealed my meridians, and I can't exert any true qi. Even if I find Liu Zhen, I won't be his match," Liu Song said with his head bowed, full of shame.
Song Yao understood his predicament. If it weren't for Lin Xiaotian today, the plan wouldn't have been ruined like this. After a few seconds, she looked at Liu Song and said, "It's alright. I will explain the situation to my second uncle truthfully. You can go back and recuperate for now. The plan is temporarily on hold."
"Yes, Miss Song," Liu Song agreed, bid farewell, and left. Song Yao gritted her teeth, a fierce glint in her eyes, and stomped her foot in anger, saying, "Lin Xiaotian, I remember you. You have offended our Song family, which is like poking a hornet's nest. I will make you understand what a price is."
*Hoo hoo!* After leaving the entertainment club, Lin Xiaotian happily got into his car, whistling all the way back to Chu Corporation. Chu Nianxue had already finished her work in advance, waiting for Lin Xiaotian to invite her to dinner. Seeing Lin Xiaotian walk in, a smile appeared on her face, and she stood up proactively, saying, "Xiaotian, I'm done with my work. Let's go eat."
"Wife, you're so quick to get ready. Alright, let's go," Lin Xiaotian said joyfully, taking Chu Nianxue's hand as they left.
However, as they walked out of the company together and were about to get into the car, a pink sedan suddenly drove up from a distance. The car stopped, and Ye Wantong got out angrily, rushing straight to Lin Xiaotian and grabbing him, saying, "Lin Xiaotian, you stop right there."
"Oh, why are you here, girl? Your face is all purple. Don't tell me you're sick," Lin Xiaotian asked her deliberately. In fact, Lin Xiaotian could roughly guess her purpose for coming. This afternoon, he had asked the old man to go find her for money. Such a stingy person wouldn't give it and would have argued with the old man. The target of her anger would naturally be him.
"How dare you say that? It's all because of you! Who told the old man that I would refund his expenses? You made me lose eight hundred thousand for nothing," Ye Wantong glared at Lin Xiaotian and complained fiercely.
Lin Xiaotian looked surprised and couldn't help but ask, "No way, you actually charged him a million? I only helped him exorcise evil. The normal price is only a few hundred yuan."
"I... what business is it of yours? It's a case of 'one willing to hit, one willing to be hit'," Ye Wantong said, her eyes darting nervously. She then glared at Lin Xiaotian again, "On the contrary, I kindly introduced you business so you could make money, and you still scammed me?"
"Please, I didn't ask you to introduce me to business. You did it out of your own goodwill. We both 'one willing to hit, one willing to be hit,' so if you suffered a loss, don't come looking for me. It has nothing to do with me," Lin Xiaotian said, finding her puffed-up appearance incredibly amusing and couldn't help but grin.
Her anger was still simmering, and she wanted to continue settling scores with Lin Xiaotian, but she suddenly saw Chu Nianxue beside him, looking curious and asking, "Cousin, where are you going? You're usually busy at the company at this time."
"I'm going to dinner with Xiaotian. Do you want to join us?" Chu Nianxue said with a slight smile.
"You're going to dinner? Of course, count me in! Let's go," Ye Wantong said, her stomach rumbling a few times. She immediately forgot about being angry and happily got into the car!
