I feel that Lin Hang's teasing and free-spirited nature doesn't seem at all like someone raised by the strict and prestigious Lin Family. "Hey, Yu Longting, what exactly is Lin Hang's status?"
"This guy is your maternal grandfather's brother's grandson. You guys are at most distant relatives."
Yu Longting explained to me.
I carefully calculated it, and my relationship with Lin Hang is quite distant indeed, "Truly distant relatives, then. In that case, he's not a direct descendant of the Lin Family."
"Yes, his family is just a branch of the Lin Family, living miles away, but they do have a certain understanding of the Lin Family's internal affairs," Yu Longting answered.
"So you, last night, went to bring him here?" I remembered the message from Yu Longting's WeChat last night, saying he was miles away.
Yu Longting narrowed his eyes slightly, "Exactly, my magical cave is nearby where he lived. I also took the opportunity to return to my cave and dealt with some affairs of my own sect."
"Oh." Although I knew of Yu Longting's identity as Snake Lord, Beichen is the only person I know from his sect. This was the first time I heard him discussing sect affairs.
Yu Longting seemed to be expecting something, his finger hooked my chin lightly, "Oh, just oh? Don't you have anything you want to ask?"
"What's there to ask? I don't understand the affairs of your Immortal Clan's sect. But you haven't been back there for so long, I'm sure there must be a lot of matters piling up to be dealt with."
I didn't really care much about Yu Longting returning to his sect, but now that he asked specifically, I felt there must be something.
Could it be that there was some significant trouble in the sect? Or was it dissatisfaction among the disciples with his constant absence?
After all, as the sect leader, it probably isn't good to always be away.
"Let's go out and interrogate Lin Xinmei. It feels weird to do it in the restroom." Yu Longting walked over, picked up Lin Xinmei by the collar of her clothes as if lifting a small chicken, and brought her out of the restroom.
The moment Lin Xinmei saw Yu Longting, she flared up, her fury causing the red lines on her body to suddenly darken, "Let go of me, Snake Lord! You freak! Do you want to strangle me? Su Wan, you've fallen! After sleeping with a monster, you can't tell right from wrong... allowing the Snake Lord to insult your own kind... "
"Do you think I don't hit women? If you think since I'm Snake Lord, you should treat me as benevolent, you might have miscalculated," Yu Longting said, casually throwing her on the sofa in the living room, and picking up the matchbox on the table.
His fingers gently caressed the surface of the box.
The matchbox suddenly snapped open.
A red centipede with completely transparent wings flew out.
Upon seeing the crimson centipede, Lin Xinmei shuddered in fear, "Centipede Gu, are you going to torture me with Centipede Gu?"
"Let her feel pain," Yu Longting said, deliberately annunciating these three words.
Xiao Honghong didn't move at all and recited a strange incantation.
Although I could understand Xiao Honghong when it spoke, when it chanted the incantation, there was no automatic translation.
I couldn't understand it at all, but it sounded somewhat like the Ancient Dian Language spoken by a friend of my dad from the Miao ethnicity.
Lin Xinmei's skin on one hand turned completely blood-red, and in pain, she collapsed onto the floor, "Painful... painful... just kill me if you want... don't torture me..."
"Yu Longting, maybe let's just stop, alright? Although she's upset you with her unchecked mouth, you've been insulted before, too. Why are you so angry this time?" Although I detested Lin Xinmei's actions and felt she wasn't a good person, the scene before me was still too much to bear.
Lin Hang, frightened, shrank his neck and added, "Maybe this girl is just being rebellious because of adolescence, that's why she cursed you. Don't hold it against a child. Cousin is right; you've been often called a psycho and a freak. You should be used to it by now." Google seaʀᴄh NoveI★Fire.net
"I admit I'm a psycho and a freak, it's not really an insult, at best, it's an objective assessment," Yu Longting said, his fingers propped against his forehead, his cold and murderous aura pervading, like a death god looking down on all living beings, "Wanwan, she shouldn't have talked about you."
