My heart skipped a beat. I closed my eyes and focused. Sure enough, I could see a wet trail that extended into the darkness ahead.
I calmed my breathing and followed the trail. I tried my best to tread lightly. After all, this unknown darkness was very dangerous. I had no idea what was ahead.
I didnât know how long I walked, but I suddenly felt that there were changes to the walls. I felt marks left behind by tools.
I stopped. In this kind of darkness, my hearing would be better than my vision. I closed my eyes and focused on my senses.
After I unlocked Phoenix Blood my five senses became more sensitive.
âLin Nan, think carefully. He doesnât love you. He has someone he loves. Donât you already know their story? With your conditions, you can easily find someone better. Why must you want him?â
âFourth brother, I only want him, no matter the cost!â
I couldnât help but feel a chill in my heart.
This was Lin Nan and Lin Hua.
Then who was the âHimâ that Lin Nan was talking about?
Lin Nan spoke again. âFourth brother, do you know the feeling of love at first sight? Ever since I met him, my heart was no longer mine. Iâve never felt this way towards any man, so Iâm certain that he is mine. Other than him, I donât want anyone else!â
Lin Nanâs voice was very firm, but the content was really shameless.
Lin Hua sighed. âLin Nan, why bother? Itâs just a man. Do you think heâs more important or phoenix blood? Our Lin family has been practicing medicine for generations. Weâve been diligent. Now that weâve encountered Phoenix Blood, many of our problems can be solved. Donât you forget that phoenix blood is our most important goal?â
......
âFourth brother, this doesnât conflict at all! I want Phoenix Blood, and I also want this man!â
Lin Nanâs words were calm and natural. I really didnât expect that dignified and elegant woman to be so shameless!
No!?My heart suddenly became alert.
Didnât Lin Nan take an arrow for me? Why did she sound so fine? n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
I felt guilty earlier for implicating her, but this was a conspiracy all along. And the man Lin Nan coveted⦠It had to be Jing Tian!
My heart pounded wildly. âJing Tian was taken away by them?!â
Lin Hua said helplessly, âAlright, Lin Nan, since youâve thought it through, I wonât stop you. Iâve drugged him. If he didnât have sex with a woman today, heâd be crippled. I hope you wonât regret this.â
âDonât worry, fourth brother. I know what Iâm doing. Fourth brother, donât worry. Iâll get you the Phoenix Blood. With Jing Tian in my hands, I wonât have to worry about the phoenix blood not being obedient. This underground cave is enough for her to walk for a year. When Iâm done with Jing Tian, Iâll be able to subdue her. When that time comes, I only want Jing Tian. I wonât touch the Phoenix Blood!âThe confidence and pride in Lin Nanâs voice made my lungs explode!
âAlright, Iâm not a woman. I canât understand your thoughts. Why are you so obsessed with a man? But it doesnât matter as long as youâre happy. I canât give you much as your elder brother, so Iâll give you this man. His drug is about to act up soon. Iâll leave and wait for your good news!â Lin Hua said as he walked away.
The sound of his footsteps traveled in another direction. It seemed that there was an exit there.
Lin Nan was left behind with Jing Tian.
I have to save Jing Tian. This damn woman! She actually dared to drug Jing Tian. She was really shameless. I was so angry that my entire body was trembling.
