449: Can Lao Liu also hear the voice in your heart?

“Forget it. A kowtow and an apology would be too light a punishment for you, Sixth Cousin. I'm afraid it wouldn't appease Beastly Cousin's hatred.”

“At this point, only Mother, you can personally perform the 'strangle'!”

“Come on, Mom! Let Sixth Cousin, who has already found his own path to death, feel the pain!!!”

“...”

Tang Familys Third Young Master sighed and issued the 'strangle' command to his own mother.

The next second, Xu Shuyun, who deeply empathized, moved in response.

To help Lin Xuan calm down earlier and to secure a path to survival for her Good Son, Sixth Cousin.

She directly wrapped her elbow around Tang Hao's neck.

Mother's Strangle!!!!

Tang Hao was once again dumbfounded Σ(☉▽☉"a, unable to comprehend why the Tang Family would go to such lengths for Beastly Cousin?!?!

Fortunately, Xu Shuyun was just an ordinary person. Her “Mother's Strangle” skill looked intimidating but actually couldn't break Tang Hao's defense.

But Tang Hao still pretended to be suffocating, deciding to temporarily yield and endure, planning to privately inquire about the reason for the Tang Family's drastic change in personality later.

“I'm sorry! Cousin,”

“It's alright! To know one's mistakes and be able to correct them is the greatest good! Cousin, I am a magnanimous person, not someone petty.”

To be honest.

Lin Xuan was quite surprised by Aunt's family's protection of him, and his gaze towards Tang Hao also changed somewhat... [Sixth Cousin was so hostile towards me originally, I really didn't want to put on a warm face for a cold shoulder, to interfere with his inevitable death, letting him be sucked dry by Jiang Yangping would be fine.]

[But Aunt and the others are so biased towards me now, it really makes me feel a bit uneasy to just stand by and do nothing!]

[Later, why don't I find a reason to stop Sixth Cousin from crossing the river to find his master?]

[Anyway, Jiang Yangping's main targets are those Martial Artists, the stronger they are, the more likely they are to be targeted by him.]

[As long as Qingge and I stay in the restaurant and don't go anywhere, when Jiang Yangping starts killing and the Martial Artists are crying for their parents, Cousin will naturally arrive late at the last moment and start his show-off mode...]

[And after he defeats Jiang Yangping, he will naturally be hailed as a savior by the powerful figures and Martial Arts Grandmasters present, receiving all sorts of praise and flattery, hogging the limelight.]

[Tsk tsk tsk... A common old trope for showing off in web novels...]

...[However, with Sixth Cousin's love for showing off, he definitely won't listen to my advice. He'll turn around and stride with arrogant, impressive steps, under everyone's gaze, towards his most admired master.]

[Little does he know, his master, who has long since gone mad, will be the first to strike him, thus initiating today's prelude to slaughter...]

[Even until his dying breath, Sixth Cousin will still be in disbelief, shouting loudly:]

['Impossible, absolutely impossible!!! Master, you must be joking with me!']

[Then he will be instantly blown up by the demonized Jiang Yangping, his brains splattering, and he will be sucked dry.]

[Alas, we are relatives after all. Should I remind him later? Is it really bad to just stand by and do nothing?]

[After all, Aunt and Aunt are quite good to me. If I just watch them lose their beloved son, I feel a little uneasy...]

[According to the current timeline...]

[After Sixth Cousin dies, Aunt's hair turns white overnight, and Aunt almost cries her eyes blind.]

[And Sixth Cousin's death will also become the fuse, causing the relationship between Aunt and his wife to gradually develop cracks from then on, leading to arguments! They will start mutually blaming each other for their incompetence, until their relationship completely breaks down and they divorce...]

...When Lin Xuan's inner voice sounded, Tang Guoan and his wife's faces both lit up with joy, and they breathed a huge sigh of relief.

Finally... finally, they saw hope of rescue, finding a way out for their silly Sixth Cousin.

Originally, they were still racking their brains, wondering how they could rescue Sixth Cousin from such a powerful Martial Artist like Jiang Yangping?

Ordinary methods wouldn't work at all, and using force was even more ridiculous. Who could deal with a Martial Arts Grandmaster?!

A slight misstep, let alone saving Sixth Cousin, perhaps even the entire Tang Family could be annihilated in an instant.

Now with Nephew's inner voice as a hint, they finally knew the method to save their Good Son's life.

The only thing that surprised them was... this method was actually so simple? Just staying in the private room and not going out was enough???

Although they found it somewhat incredible, the Tang Family's trust in Lin Xuan was now an unconditional blind obedience.

They exchanged glances, tacitly nodding in unison, determined that no matter what Sixth Cousin wanted to do later, they would absolutely not let him leave this private room for half a step... If Sixth Cousin dared to disobey, stubbornly choosing the path to death... then they could only unite and take turns using the family's unique skill, passed down through generations, on Tang Hao—

Father's Strangle!!!!!

Mother's Strangle!!!!!

Brother's Strangle!!!!!

Sister's Strangle!!!!!

By combining the four powers of the Tang Family's affectionate strangulation, they didn't believe they couldn't keep Tang Hao?!?!

However, at this moment, the Tang Family still had an unresolved question in their hearts.

Who... was the Cousin that Lin Xuan mentioned?

To actually possess the strength to defeat a Martial Arts Grandmaster?!

Truly terrifying indeed~~~~

If that person was indeed Big Nephew's relative, rounded up, wouldn't that also count as their own relative?!?!

Hmm, such an extraordinary relative, if there's an opportunity, they must definitely get to know him well... What the heck?!

Why did that voice appear again?

Who? Who exactly was speaking?

Tang Hao's face was filled with suspicion and uncertainty, looking left and right, but he saw no one speaking. The voice seemed to appear suddenly in his mind, extraordinarily mysterious.

What made it even more baffling was... the other party actually said that his master had gone mad cultivating an evil technique, and that he would die by his master's hand???

And Dad Tang and Mom Tang would also have their relationship break down as a result? Choosing to divorce in the future?

Nonsense!!!!!

Ridiculous!!!!!

Master was righteous, always helping the weak, treating him like his own son, so how could he possibly dabble in evil techniques and even harm him???

And his parents had lived together in harmony and love for decades, during which they gave birth to their seven sons of the Tang Family, and their marital bond was indestructible.

How could their relationship break down, ultimately leading to divorce???

Impossible, absolutely impossible!!!!!

I have 95% absolute certainty that everything revealed in that voice will absolutely not happen!!!!!

Just then, the familiar inner voice sounded again... [Sixth Cousin is really stupid enough! If he had paid careful attention, he would definitely have noticed some clues.]

[For example, his fellow disciples, after leaving with Jiang Yangping, never appeared again, yet he didn't have the slightest suspicion?]

[Jiang Yangping's coming to participate in this arena competition, ostensibly to avenge his disciple, is false.]

[The real reason is that all those disciples have been killed by him, and he couldn't find more suitable Martial Artists for a while.]

[And the official arena competition is one of the places where Martial Artists gather the most...]

[In order to break through his cultivation bottleneck faster, Jiang Yangping chose to take a desperate risk, determined to go completely mad before his time runs out.]

...This voice? This address?

Tang Hao, realizing it belatedly, suddenly looked at Beastly Cousin in front of him, staring intently. He finally realized... why he always felt that mysterious voice sounded so familiar!

It was because that voice was exactly the same as Beastly Cousin's?!?

But he had just been staring intently at the other party's mouth, and Beastly Cousin clearly hadn't spoken? So where did this voice come from???

Wait, could it be—

Tang Hao's eyes widened, an incredible thought flashing through his mind. Could it be that what he heard... was Beastly Cousin's inner voice?!?

I accidentally awakened the superpower to eavesdrop on others' inner voices!!!!!

Thinking of this, Tang Hao was overjoyed.

He never expected... that he was not only a rare Martial Arts genius in a century but also awakened a special ability that only existed in comics.

This was clearly a protagonist's script, a chosen one!!!!!

Indeed, his future, Tang Hao, was destined to rule the world, be invincible, suppress all sides, create his own Sixth Cousin legend, and awe for thousands of generations!!!!!

At this moment, Tang Hao's mouth twitched, revealing a smile.

However, is this Beastly Cousin crazy? Or has he lost his mind?

(•́へ•́╬) To actually call me stupid in his heart?

And to fabricate the illusion that his fellow disciples were all tragically killed by his master?

Heh heh, truly... talking nonsense!!!!!

Absurd!!!!!

Master said that the reason he took away his fellow disciples was to teach them [Core Cultivation Method].

This was a secret art of the sect, a secret not to be passed on, and he would only allow his fellow disciples to re-emerge after they had completed their closed-door training and achieved mastery.

And Tang Hao had just entered the Inner Strength realm not long ago, so he was not yet qualified to learn the supreme martial arts. When he reached minor completion in Inner Strength, Master would naturally take him to meet his fellow disciples at their closed-door training location... As for Fang Mo, his senior brother!

He was ruined by the Han Family through despicable means, losing his family. He cultivated diligently under Master's tutelage, hoping to one day personally kill all his enemies.

Who would have thought... he died before he could even start.

The Han Family was actually prepared, setting up a trap and even finding an expert to assassinate Senior Brother Fang Mo.

Ultimately, Senior Brother died with unclosed eyes, filled with hatred.

When Master learned of this, he was furious and filled with grief, vowing to avenge Senior Brother Fang Mo!!!!!

How could such a good master, who loved his disciples like his own sons, have selfish motives?!

He came here today not for fame or profit, but only for that shred of justice in his heart!!!!!

Tang Hao firmly believed this, completely convinced that Beastly Cousin's inner voice was unreliable.

The only thing that surprised him was... how did Beastly Cousin know so much... about some things concerning him and his master?

Some secrets, besides those within the sect, no one else could possibly know???

As Tang Hao frowned in thought!

The Tang Family members present were also thoughtful. From Sixth Cousin's reactions just now, they concluded that Tang Hao could also eavesdrop on Lin Xuan's inner voice, and like them, was a chosen one.

Indeed, their Tang Family ancestral graves were smoking with green smoke; they were a truly unique chosen family in this world... On the other side.

Lin Xuan's attention was finally drawn to Huo Qichen, who was staring intently at him not far away.

Ah... this?!

I remember that in the original plot, this Overbearing CEO didn't show any signs of "atavism"?

When he saw Huo Qichen paralyzed in a wheelchair, with a crooked mouth and a distorted face, Lin Xuan was both surprised and somewhat schadenfreude.

He had occasionally heard some rumors recently, saying that Huo Qichen had experienced genetic atavism, suffering from "Hawking Syndrome," and would likely become a completely disabled person unable to care for himself in the future.

Originally, Lin Xuan thought the rumors were somewhat exaggerated, but he didn't expect the situation to be even "worse" than he had anticipated... [Cousin had mentioned before that he gave the Overbearing CEO a small punishment.]

[I always thought it was at most blocking the acupuncture points in Huo Qichen's waist, causing his lower limbs to be paralyzed, making him unable to leave the wheelchair for life.]

[But now it seems, Cousin's actions were much harsher than I thought...]

[However, I also suspect it's possible that the Huo Family's genes do contain a hereditary disease, but the probability of it acting up is extremely low, having little impact on the family's continuation.]

[As for Huo Qichen, this unlucky fellow, the reason he experienced "atavism"...]

[It's highly probable that under the stimulation of Cousin's acupuncture, certain unexpected chain reactions occurred in his body, directly triggering the hereditary disease!]

...[4000 words, to be completed.]

[Today I was busy revising the non-compliant parts, tomorrow I'll try to finish writing it all in one go, w(ﾟДﾟ)w I won't make up for it later.]

This book is temporarily alive again. Now it's just a matter of seeing if it can regain recommendations.

I found an editor today, deleted some things I mentioned before, and it was re-released after review.

However, this delisting had too much impact. I feel like the previous traffic can't be restored. Sadness flows like a river~~~~~(╥╯^╰╥)

Because after being put in the small dark room, it's equivalent to being labeled [vulgar and pornographic], just like coming out of prison. Society (review) will be stricter, and it will be harder to get various survival (recommendation) opportunities.

But I can only continue writing. I originally planned to write 2 million words, now I'm preparing to write 3 million.

Of course, it depends on how big the impact of this small dark room is. If there's no traffic, it's hard to persist. I hope I can maintain it as much as possible... Also, thank you everyone for your gifts and encouragement yesterday!!!!!
