While you were growing up, Dad wasn’t by your side.
Dad owes you a lot, and he also owes Xiaotian. Dad can endure this bit of pain, just think of it as Dad repaying his debt, okay?
Go ahead and hit . Even if you beat Dad to death, Dad won’t bla you. Besides..."
Rong Shaoze looked up, eting Yuan Ye’s smiling gaze, and said calmly, "Dad won’t die easily. Our family will surely co out of this alive."
Hearing the firmness in his voice, Xiaocong felt a glimr of hope.
Could their family really leave this place alive?
But if they keep beating him, Dad will be beaten to death.
"Co on!" Rong Shaoze stood up straight. Suddenly, Xiaocong thought his figure looked so tall and grand. There was no one more great than his dad in this world.
"...Alright." He nodded and continued to attack Rong Shaoze.
"Hit harder!" Rong Shaoze shouted. Xiaocong could only close his eyes and hit him randomly.
Rong’s mother slowly regained consciousness. Seeing this scene, she was so shocked that she couldn’t utter a word.
Xiaocong’s strikes were not light. Rong Shaoze spat out another mouthful of blood, his tall, upright body falling heavily to the ground with a loud thud.
Lin Xinlan’s heart shattered into pieces. It could never be put back together again.
"Enough, stop!" she scread, her voice hoarse and exhausted.
"Don’t hit him anymore. If we’re going to die, let’s die together! Rong Shaoze, let’s not be threatened by him anymore. Our whole family will die together, and even if we go underground, we can be together!"
On his knees, Xiaocong cried as he said, "Dad, let him kill my little brother. We’ll go down there to accompany him. Our family should always be together, no one can leave."
Rong Shaoze’s empty eyes were open, his body trembling slightly. His fingers moved, but he had no strength left.
Seeing this scene, the other mbers of iying and Yanhuang closed their eyes in sorrow, unable to watch anymore.
"Clap, clap!" Yuan Ye applauded, smiling faintly, "What a touching family. Seeing you in such pain, my heart... feels overjoyed! Haha..."
He laughed triumphantly. Lin Xinlan glared at him with hatred and mocked, "What, are you jealous of our family’s love? Yuan Ye, I bet you’ll never experience such emotions in your entire life. People like you live like the walking dead. Is there any emotion in your world at all? Your world is completely empty. In this life, you’re living worse than a dog!"
Yuan Ye’s smile instantly vanished. His face turned grim and contorted.
His sharp, cold gaze bore into Lin Xinlan, a flash of murderous intent passing through his eyes.
Raising his gun, he aid at the rope tying Lin Xinlan up, and smiled lightly, "Do you know what the consequences will be if I shoot now?"
Lin Xinlan and the others were hanging high in the air, at least seven or eight ters above the ground.
A fall from that height would either cripple or kill a person.
Lin Xinlan showed no fear at all, she replied coldly, "It’s nothing but death! Do you think I’m afraid to die? In my eyes, people like you are the ones most afraid of death. If you’re scared of dying, don’t naively think that everyone else is!"
Her words hit right at the heart of Yuan Ye’s thoughts.
He was indeed the most afraid of death, and so he believed everyone else was afraid of death too.
He narrowed his eyes dangerously, and said coldly, "Since you’re not afraid of death, alright, I’ll send you on your way!"
