"I've already told you, I'll be your dog. And with the video evidence you have, I wouldn't dare defy you. If you release that video, I'll be completely ruined."
Wang Tianhua's voice trembled violently. "As long as you let me off this time, I promise to follow your lead from now on."
"If you find me displeasing, I'll leave immediately and guarantee I'll never appear before you again."
"You've got me by the scruff of my neck, so I definitely won't dare seek revenge."
"For a good-for-nothing like me to go against your entire Wang family is an incredibly unwise choice. If you let me go, I'll handle things with my family. They absolutely won't stand against a master like you because of a nobody like me."
Lin Xiaotian smiled and casually stepped on Wang Tianhua's leg, then applied a little more pressure.
*Crack!*
The sound of bone shattering was accompanied by Wang Tianhua's piercing scream.
"Why are you still tormenting me?"
"I'm already in such a miserable state. Most of my bones are broken, and I can't even crawl. We don't have such deep enmity between us, why do you want to condemn me to death?"
Lin Xiaotian said with a half-smile, "Do you really think I can't see what's going on in your mind?"
"As for what you said, I consider it all to be utter nonsense."
"I'm too lazy to play mind games with you. I could just kill you directly, including your entire family. If anyone dares to defy me, I'll crush them with a single palm. Why waste time with you?"
"Only by making you feel pain will you learn to fear. Without fear and reverence, your thoughts will never cease."
"Besides, you yourself said you are the most outstanding heir of your Wang family. If I cripple you, do you think the other members of your family will just explode? Even if you're reduced to a cripple, they won't easily let this go for the sake of their reputation."
Upon hearing this, Wang Tianhua knew he was finished.
His eyes were filled with terror.
"Please, don't kill me. I'll do anything you ask."
The imminent threat of death caused fear to spread uncontrollably through his heart. At this moment, he had only one thought: as long as he could live, he would do anything.
A brilliant smile appeared on Lin Xiaotian's face. "You'll do anything?"
Wang Tianhua thought he saw hope and nodded vigorously, like a pecking chicken.
"I will agree to do anything you ask. I'll charge through mountains of knives and seas of fire. I know my value is very limited now."
"The wealth of our entire Wang family is beyond your imagination. If you are truly as powerful as you claim, you can take me back to the Wang family."
"There will definitely be many people in our family who won't be convinced. If you beat them into submission and make me the head of the Wang family, I'll gradually transfer all those industries to you."
"I can generate countless profits for you."
The smile on Lin Xiaotian's face widened. "I'm not interested in playing those games. If I want to make money, I have plenty of ways."
"Money is inexhaustible, what's the point of having so much? And I don't need you to do such complicated things. Your brain is too stupid; if you were to do them, the other members of the Wang family would see through it at a glance."
"Absolutely not. My father is the current head of the Wang family."
"As long as I can survive, he will never easily give me up. Even if my own strength is gone, I can still demonstrate my value in business."
"Our Wang family also needs an heir."
Wang Tianhua would say anything to save his life.
His eyes were filled with pleading.
The smile on Lin Xiaotian's lips grew more pronounced. "What you're saying holds no temptation for us. What I want now is to see the expressions on the faces of the other members of your Wang family."
"My request is very simple: I will package you up like a delivery and send you to the Wang family hall."
"I'll deliver it myself!"
Wang Tianhua felt a slight sense of relief. As long as he could live, anything was possible.
But if he died, then nothing mattered.
Before his thoughts had fully settled, Lin Xiaotian produced several silver needles and inserted them into his body.
Wang Tianhua felt pain surge through his entire body like a tide.
Compared to this agony, the pain from his broken bones was insignificant.
Before he could even scream, Lin Xiaotian removed a needle, sealing all his acupoints, rendering him unable to utter a sound, leaving only muscle spasms.
"Don't worry, you definitely won't die. But you will spend the rest of your life in this agony."
"This pain will only affect your body, not your mind significantly. So, as long as you receive medical treatment, you can live on, until you're old."
"This is the consequence of daring to covet my wife."
"I won't kill you, but I will make you wish you were dead."
His voice was calm, as if announcing a trivial matter. Wang Tianhua, however, felt a chill run down his spine. The intense pain tormented him, making him wish he could just smash his head against something and end it all, not wanting to endure another second of this suffering.
Unable to move an inch, his only hope was to return to the Wang family.
Lin Xiaotian had initially intended to inform Chu Nianxue first, but then decided against it.
After all, it wouldn't take him long to visit the Wang family.
He disliked trouble but never feared it. Since Wang Tianhua had come, and he had dealt with him this way, the next Wang family member wouldn't be far behind. It was better to deal with them all at once.
Driving to the provincial capital took just over an hour.
Lin Xiaotian drove at breakneck speed, the wind whistling past.
The Wang family, being a clan with centuries of heritage, had built a large estate around their core.
The entire mountain was Wang family territory.
As his car approached the mountain road entrance, security personnel blocked his path.
"I'm sorry, external vehicles are only allowed to drive to the entrance. If you have business, you can take our shuttle bus directly to the estate."
"But you must have an appointment and clearly state which Mr. Wang you wish to see."
Upon hearing this, a faint smile appeared on Lin Xiaotian's face. "I'm here to deliver a gift."
