“Older brother, older brother?” The young girl struggled to see the person before her, calling out with an anguished and aggrieved expression.
That’s right. This young girl was none other than Lin Ye’s biological younger sister, Lin Xue, born to the same parents.
“How did they send you here?” Lin Ye discovered that his voice was trembling more violently than ever before.
What kind of person could do such a vicious thing? Incest violated the heavenly dao and human morality in every world!
If he truly did something that should never happen with Lin Xue, not only would he be ruined, Lin Xue’s entire life would be over as well!
“Older brother, save me!” Lin Xue painfully shed two clear tears. She did not know what was wrong with her; she only knew that she felt extremely uncomfortable and craved her older brother’s closeness.
“System, can you help my younger sister detoxify herself?” Lin Ye asked anxiously in his mind.
“This System can only remove the aphrodisiac from the host’s body. It cannot provide an antidote to help others.” The System’s reply to Lin Ye was utterly despairing.
“Older brother, I feel so awful.” Lin Xue walked up to Lin Ye in the blink of an eye. Her flushed, smiling face looked on the verge of tears as she spoke in a choked voice.
“Older brother, please help me, all right?” Lin Xue uncontrollably rubbed herself against Lin Ye. She discovered that his body was cool and chilly, able to ease the heat inside her that was nearly burning her alive.
“Xue’er, calm down. Bear with it for a while and let older brother think of a way, all right?” Lin Ye took a deep breath as he soothed Lin Xue while frantically searching for a way to remove the aphrodisiac.
“Older brother, I’m so hot.” Lin Xue muttered with a sob in her voice, beginning to pull off her clothes as she spoke.
“Xue’er, calm down first. Don’t do this.” Even though Lin Ye racked his mind, he still could not think of a way to undo the effects of Mandarin Duck Powder.
“System, since you said you would help me become a Supreme Card Master, can’t you even undo a mere aphrodisiac?”
However, the only answer Lin Ye received was a silence maddening enough to drive anyone insane.
“Older brother, I feel so awful. You know how to save me, don’t you? You clearly know how much I’m suffering, so why won’t you save me?” Lin Xue looked at Lin Ye aggrievedly and asked.
“Who is it? Come out!” Suddenly sensing movement in the corner, Lin Ye turned his eyes, which seemed ready to erupt with flame, toward it and roared furiously.
“Hehehe, I didn’t expect to see such a wonderful show right after arriving!” A fourteen- or fifteen-year-old girl in a pink dress gracefully approached Lin Ye’s door. Covering her red lips with a small handkerchief, she laughed softly.
The moment he saw the girl, a glimmer of understanding suddenly appeared in Lin Ye’s eyes, immediately followed by icy killing intent.
“Han Yan! Just what have I done to offend you, Lin Ye, to deserve such vicious treatment?”
“You can’t blame me for this. You can only blame your grandfather, who has been missing for twenty years. If he hadn’t arranged a marriage pact between you useless trash and me, would I have been mocked for so many years because of you garbage?”
Han Yan slowly lowered the handkerchief, and her hideous expression completely ruined her beautiful face.
“If you’re dissatisfied, come at me. Why drag my younger sister into this?” The killing intent on Lin Ye’s face grew increasingly intense. Two bright-red spirit cards suddenly appeared in his hands. The spirit cards flashed faintly, and a mass of water and flame instantly merged together before shooting toward Han Yan’s head.
However, Han Yan did not even draw her own Spirit Card. With nothing more than a light wave of her small hand, the merged water and flame instantly dispersed in midair and vanished without a trace.
“Come at you? What are you, exactly? If I fought you, would you even be able to withstand one move from me?” Han Yan sneered disdainfully. “Even though I am a woman, I am the most talented person in all of Cold Night City. If I killed you, I would only be afraid of dirtying my hands.”
“So you wanted to use my younger sister to harm me?” Lin Ye was not surprised that his attack had been casually deflected. He took a deep breath, a storm brewing in his eyes.
Han Yan sighed softly and shook her head. “How can you call it harming you? Your younger sister is so beautiful. Letting you enjoy yourself before you die is clearly a blessing from me to you!”
“Older brother, help me.” Most of the clothes on Lin Xue, who was in Lin Ye’s arms, had already been removed. The blood vessels throughout her body had swollen, and her consciousness had begun to blur. If this continued, her blood vessels could burst at any moment, killing her.
“Han Yan, give me the antidote, or I swear I’ll make you regret ever coming into this world!” The more anxious and furious Lin Ye became, the calmer he grew. The agitation had vanished from his face, and the killing intent radiating from his entire body was enough to make Han Yan, a four-star martial master, shudder coldly.
“Hmph, stop daydreaming. That’s impossible.” Han Yan suppressed the fear gradually rising in her heart and shook her head indifferently.
“Ding!”
“System mission: Defeat Han Yan. Mission Requirements: The System will use 1,000 points of spirit card essence to stimulate the host’s life force potential, forcibly raising the host’s strength to the two-star martial master Realm for one minute. Mission rewards: None. Does the host accept?”
“Accept!” Lin Ye responded in his mind without hesitation. At present, he had no time to care about whether spirit card essence was being consumed. Killing the wretched woman before him was what mattered most.
“Ding!”
“Mission accepted successfully. The host’s life force potential has been stimulated. Duration: three minutes. The countdown begins now.”
As the system notification voice appeared in Lin Ye’s mind, a force erupted from within his body and surged through his limbs and bones like a tide, filling him with unprecedented strength.
“Drop dead!” The two spirit cards that had appeared in Lin Ye’s hands at some unknown point suddenly radiated blazing red light. In the next instant, two masses of water and flame, pure to the extreme, merged together, giving rise to a faint red-and-blue radiance before violently smashing toward Han Yan outside the cell door.
“Nothing but a dying struggle.” Looking at the light orb flying toward her, Han Yan curled her lips into a disdainful, mocking smile and lightly waved her fair hand as she had before.
“Ah!”
However, the Water-Fire Light Orb was not casually swept aside as Han Yan had expected. It struck her face without deviating in the slightest. If she had not instinctively turned her body slightly the instant she sensed danger, her entire face would likely have been destroyed.
Even so, the light orb grazed the left side of her face, leaving behind a charred, hideous wound.
“Ah! My face!” Han Yan suddenly felt a searing pain spread across her cheek. Her hand instinctively touched it, but the sensation beneath her fingers made her cry out in shock and dismay.
“Lin Ye, I’m going to kill you!” Han Yan roared with her eyes wide, lunging toward Lin Ye with her fingers clawed.
However, before she could make a move, another Water-Fire Light Orb shot toward her.
