32: Chapter 32 Let's Play Big
“This is despicable! This bunch of scum, I’m going to kill them all!!”
Ye Qingzhu's stunning face was filled with anger and ferocity.
Upon hearing everything Tian Yingying had gone through, she was absolutely furious.
She felt immense sympathy for Tian Yingying's plight.
“Don't be sad. This won't just end here; we will definitely take revenge for you!!”
Ye Qingzhu said with great determination.
This provided great comfort to Tian Yingying.
At the very least, it made her feel that she wasn't alone; she still had teammates to rely on!
“Thank you!”
“However, let's not provoke them for now. I inquired about Lin Hao's background; he's from the Lin family, one of the Six Great Families. Although he's from a collateral branch, his family is wealthy and powerful, and he’s always surrounded by many followers.”
“We should focus on improving our strength. Once we are strong enough, we'll find an opportunity... to cut him down!”
A ferocity that didn't match her beautiful, delicate face appeared on Tian Yingying's face.
At this moment, she was like a young wolf—though born lowly and lacking in strength, she possessed immense resilience and ruthlessness.
Perhaps she couldn't take revenge immediately, but she would never forget the hatred.
She would choose to lie low, grow stronger, and then wait for the chance to finish him off!
“The Lin family? Could this be because of that Lin Cong?” Ye Qingzhu was very sharp and immediately made the connection to Lin Cong from yesterday.
W also nodded in agreement: “It's most likely him who instigated this. This guy is so petty; he sent people to retaliate against us just because of that small matter yesterday. Scum!”
W cursed viciously.
“Since this is targeted at us, they won't just go after Tian Yingying. We were busy this morning and didn't go, so only Tian Yingying went, which is why they only found her.”
“Why don't we all go together this afternoon and see what they plan to do?” Ye Qingzhu analyzed quickly.
“Then we need to tell Ling Yichen about this so he can be mentally prepared!” W quickly added.
When Tian Yingying heard the name Ling Yichen, her eyes brightened instantly.
She had her own unique understanding of Ling Yichen, as she had witnessed him effortlessly eliminate several veteran Awakened Ones.
Those veteran Awakened Ones' strength had reached at least E-rank!
Ling Yichen's power was something Ye Qingzhu and W didn't fully understand.
She had always kept his secret, and in her eyes, this was a secret that belonged only to them.
So, mentioning Ling Yichen now made her heart flutter inexplicably, and she couldn't help but wonder: “Would he be willing to step in and help me? Would he be willing to kill for me?”
Although Ling Yichen had killed people last time, she wasn't sure if it was intentional or just convenient for him...
“Yes, we are a team, we should consult with him!”
After saying this, Ye Qingzhu went straight out the door, peeked at Ling Yichen standing in the corridor outside, playfully crooked her finger at him, and called out softly: “Ling Yichen, come here!”
Although Ling Yichen had already known everything, he still walked over calmly, followed Ye Qingzhu into Tian Yingying's room, and listened as the three of them recounted the events over each other.
After listening, Ling Yichen's expression remained indifferent as he looked calmly at the three girls.
The three girls, seeing him so composed, immediately became restless.
“You... don't you have anything to say?”
“Don't you feel angry?”
“Don't you feel like gnashing your teeth? Don't you want to crush them all at once?”
Ye Qingzhu asked soul-searching questions.
Ling Yichen remained calm after hearing this and replied: “I am angry!”
“Uh... so this is how you act when you're angry!”
Ye Qingzhu looked at Ling Yichen strangely.
Ling Yichen looked back at her and said: “Everyone expresses emotions differently. Of course, that's not important. What's important is Lin Hao; Lin Hao must die. The only question that needs to be considered is how he dies, and how he can die without raising suspicion.”
“We are all ordinary people. The Lin family is a top-tier family here in the Central District, no, even in the entire Rainbow City.”
“Even if Lin Hao is only from a collateral branch, he's not someone our families can provoke.”
“I don't care. If something happens, I can take my sister and hide, living somewhere else, but can you?”
Ling Yichen looked at Ye Qingzhu and Tian Yingying.
Both of them were immediately speechless.
“I can. I'm all alone!” W said proudly.
Ling Yichen glanced at her, as if to say: “Is that something to be proud of?”
W immediately turned her head away, refusing to look at Ling Yichen.
Seeing this, Ling Yichen said: “This matter cannot be rushed. Right now, what you need is to improve your strength as quickly as possible, striving to reach E-rank, D-rank, or even C-rank!”
“In the world of Awakened Ones, strength is respected; only with strength do you have a voice.”
“Once your strength reaches a certain level, even the Six Great Families will have to look at you differently.”
“You should set your sights on more long-term goals, such as the Trial Tower!”
“I heard that those who complete the Trial Tower can enter Sky City. Don't you want to go to Sky City and take a look? Don't you want to bring your families to live in Sky City?”
After Ling Yichen said this, both Ye Qingzhu and Tian Yingying's eyes lit up with longing.
Only W looked at Ling Yichen quietly and muttered: “It's a pity you aren't a pyramid scheme leader; you sure can talk.”
She herself was from Sky City; if Sky City were really that great, why would she have run away?
Of course, she didn't say this out loud, nor did she intend to tell anyone else.
This was her own secret.
“As for Lin Hao and Lin Cong, you don't need to worry about them; I'll handle it!”
“This matter originally started because of me; Lin Cong is just taking his anger out on you. I will handle it properly.”
Ling Yichen said seriously.
But Ye Qingzhu was unhappy after hearing this.
“Tsk, we are a team, a whole. One person's business is everyone's business!”
Ye Qingzhu retorted just as seriously.
But after hearing this, Ling Yichen pursed his lips and smiled, agreeing: “Yes!”
“Then let's leave it at that for now. Let's eat first, rest this afternoon, and go to school together tomorrow to see if that Lin Hao or Lin Cong comes looking for trouble!”
Currently, they didn't have any good means of counterattack, so the main priority was to let Tian Yingying calm down. After all, having suffered such torment, letting her go to school alone in the afternoon wasn't a wise decision.
Everyone had no objections and nodded in unison.
Thus, the group returned to Ye Qingzhu's home, bringing Tian Yingying along as well.
When Tian Yingying saw Ling Yixuan, she praised her repeatedly, and she seemed to brighten up a bit.
After everyone finished eating, the three girls took Ling Yixuan back to Ye Qingzhu's room to play.
The three of them seemed to treat Ling Yixuan like a doll, dressing her up, changing her hair accessories, and styling her hair in different ways.
Ling Yichen was quite happy with this.
He returned to his room alone, silently thinking about the next plan.
As he had said, Lin Hao must die, and Lin Cong wouldn't escape either.
And it would be very easy for him to kill them.
He shifted his focus to Chu Qi, controlling her to conduct an investigation into Lin Hao's information. After reading his basic profile, he immediately set his plan in motion.
His plan was also very simple: he just needed to control a parasitized person to appear near Lin Hao and give the Worm a chance to enter his body.
Once Lin Hao was parasitized, his life and death would be in Ling Yichen's hands.
The same went for Lin Cong!
Therefore, he immediately controlled a parasite to head to the entrance of the Fourth Advanced Ability School to lie in wait for Lin Hao.
About an hour later, a luxury car stopped at the school gate, and Lin Hao stepped out arrogantly.
As he got out of the car, several students immediately crowded around him, holding umbrellas to shade him from the sun and clearing his path. He had such an air of importance that someone who didn't know better might think a leader had come to inspect the school.
However, he didn't know that precisely because there were so many people around him, one of them had already passed the Worm onto him.
As Ling Yichen issued the command, the Worm immediately began to parasitize.
Lin Hao's body shuddered, as if he had been bitten by something.
He didn't react much to this and continued to walk toward the school, surrounded by people, as arrogantly as ever.
As the parasitization was completed, the corners of Ling Yichen's mouth slowly curled up, and a cold sneer appeared.
He didn't choose to devour Lin Hao immediately because he planned to play for higher stakes.
He wanted to use Lin Hao as the center to completely parasitize the entire Lin family and make the Lin family his servants!
In this way, he would control a powerful family for his own use, and things like money and power would be as easy to obtain as reaching into his own pocket.
