217: Making a movie with Huan Ying

"What?!" Lin Xiaotian could hardly believe his ears.

Lin Dong trembled with rage, "Mother, Little Sister, what are you saying?"

"What do you mean 'a mistake every woman in the world makes'? What do you mean 'don't be too concerned'?"

"Do you know what you're saying?!"

Zhao Wei said with eyes full of grievance, "Dong'er, since Lin Xiaotian and I married all those years ago, we have treated each other with mutual respect every day, and life has been dull."

"But Cao Bu gave me a passion and happiness I've never had before."

"I am also a woman, and I have emotions and desires too. What's wrong with that?"

Lin Rou followed suit, "That's right, Father, Big Brother. You are men; you don't understand a woman's loneliness at all."

"Cao Bu is a bit of a beast sometimes, but he is gentle, considerate, knows how to cherish someone, and is powerful."

"I just want to pursue my own happiness. Is that wrong?"

"You... you..." Lin Xiaotian trembled with rage, and a mouthful of fresh blood sprayed straight out.

He recalled every little detail of his time with Zhao Wei.

At this moment, it all became a joke.

Lin Dong's face was ashen, and his hand trembled as he pointed at Zhao Wei. "Mother! How can you say such things?!"

"Has Father not been good to you? I've seen you treat each other with mutual respect since I was a child, and I always thought your feelings were deep!"

"But you actually... actually said such shameless things!"

Zhao Wei bit her teeth and suddenly shouted, "Mutual respect? You call that mutual respect? That's called indifference!"

"Lin Xiaotian, ask yourself, in all these years, have you ever truly cared about me?"

"Have you ever cared about what I wanted?"

"Impudent!" Lin Xiaotian roared, "Zhao Wei! I, Lin Xiaotian, have treated you well!"

"I gave you whatever you wanted. Who in the entire Lin Clan doesn't respect you as the Lady?"

"How dare you slander me like this!"

Lin Rou's eyes were red as she said, "Father! Do you know why I was willing to go with Cao Bu?"

"Because by his side, I finally feel like a living person!"

"A woman of flesh and blood who can cry and laugh!"

"You two shameless sluts!" Lin Xiaotian could no longer restrain himself and struck a palm toward Zhao Wei.

Lin Dong also attacked Lin Rou in a fit of rage.

The two of them showed no mercy, aiming straight for their lives.

Zhao Wei and Lin Rou's faces turned pale with fear, and a hint of pain flashed in their eyes.

It turned out to be exactly as Cao Bu had said.

They really wanted them dead.

At the critical moment.

Fang Ruodan appeared silently in front of the two women, waving her fair hand lightly.

A terrifying power far exceeding the ordinary Emperor Realm swept out, and Lin Xiaotian and Lin Dong's attacks instantly dissipated.

The next moment, Fang Ruodan flicked her finger, and two streaks of light entered their bodies.

"Pfft—"

"Pfft—"

Lin Xiaotian and Lin Dong simultaneously spat out a large mouthful of blood. Their auras rapidly withered, and within a few breaths, their cultivation vanished into nothingness, while their Primordial Spirits also shattered into pieces, liable to collapse and dissipate at any moment.

"Pill Emperor!"

Lin Xiaotian collapsed to the ground, looking at Fang Ruodan in terror.

Lin Dong was stunned on the spot, his mind going blank.

Gone.

His cultivation was gone.

"Ah—! My cultivation!"

Lin Dong fell to the ground, letting out a shrill wail.

Only then did Lin Xiaotian react, trembling with rage.

He pointed at Fang Ruodan and roared, "Pill Emperor, this Emperor has no grievance with you. Why did you abolish my cultivation?"

Fang Ruodan didn't even look at him, turning instead to look at Cao Bu on the ground.

Cao Bu slowly opened his eyes and stood up, dusting himself off. He didn't look injured in the slightest.

He smiled slightly, walked to Zhao Wei and Lin Rou, and handed two gleaming daggers into their hands.

"Now you should finally understand." Cao Bu's voice was calm and cold. "Kill them to prove that you have made a clean break from the past."

Zhao Wei and Lin Rou held the daggers, their hands shaking uncontrollably.

Seeing this, Lin Xiaotian and Lin Dong both stopped wailing and looked at Zhao Wei in horror.

"Mother, are you really capable of such an act as killing your husband and son?" Lin Dong swallowed hard, his body instinctively backing away.

Lin Xiaotian was also scared now and hurriedly said, "Zhao Wei, you must think clearly. If word of this gets out, how will you establish yourself in the Spirit Realm in the future? Are you really not afraid of people pointing at your backbone and cursing you?"

"Shut up!" Lin Rou suddenly erupted.

She blurred and charged straight in front of Lin Dong. Under his terrified gaze, she plunged the dagger deep into his chest.

Lin Dong looked at the dagger in his chest, then at the cold-eyed Lin Rou. Blood spurted from his mouth as he struggled to speak, "Why? I'm your big brother!"

Lin Rou's eyes were full of madness, her voice bone-chillingly cold. "Big brother? I don't have a big brother like you."

She turned to Zhao Wei and said, "Mother, have you forgotten? When they wanted to kill us just now, they didn't hesitate for a second."

After a pause, she added, "If you can't bring yourself to do it, I'll kill him for you."

As she spoke, she twisted the dagger several times in Lin Dong's chest. Lin Dong's eyes bulged, staring with unwilling eyes as he died completely.

At this moment, Zhao Wei finally reacted and hurriedly shouted to stop Lin Rou. "Rou'er, move aside. I want to personally finish off this beast."

She walked toward Lin Xiaotian step by step.

Lin Xiaotian retreated in terror. "Wei'er, Xiao Wei, I was wrong. I agree to let you be with Cao Bu. I will never stop you again."

"Is that okay? I only ask you to spare my life and let me live out the rest of my days."

The struggle in Zhao Wei's eyes completely vanished, replaced by a final resolve.

"Lin Xiaotian, so you're afraid of death too."

"Do you have any idea how ridiculous you look right now?"

"I even regret how I could have ever fallen for you."

She came before Lin Xiaotian and looked down at him from above.

"Lin Xiaotian, if I could do it all over again, I, Zhao Wei, would never have married you."

"Xiao Wei..."

A cold light flashed; Zhao Wei gave him no more chances to speak.

The sharp dagger sliced directly across his throat.

Blood sprayed, staining the grass red.

Lin Xiaotian slowly collapsed, disbelief still lingering in his eyes.

In the distance, Huan Ying watched, dumbfounded and chilled to the bone.

These two women are too terrifying.

They are more demonic than Demonic Cultivators. To be with Cao Bu, they actually killed Lin Xiaotian and Lin Dong with their own hands.

If word of this got out, how could they ever show their faces again?

Immediately, Huan Ying moved her feet, turning to fly away and escape.

Fang Ruodan had been keeping an eye on Huan Ying. The moment she took flight, Fang Ruodan had already blocked her path.

"Huan Ying, where do you think you're escaping to?"

Huan Ying forced a smile. "Pill Emperor, what do you mean by this? Escape? Who's escaping? I'm Big Brother's little sister. Why can't I go where I want? If you don't believe me, ask Big Brother."

"Is that so?" Cao Bu flickered and appeared in front of Huan Ying. "You're really not trying to escape?"

Huan Ying felt a bit guilty but feigned confidence. "Who said I was escaping? I haven't done anything to wrong you, so why would I escape?"

Cao Bu sneered, "Stop pretending. You're the one who brought Lin Xiaotian here, aren't you?"

Hearing this, Huan Ying's expression changed, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes.

She bit her teeth and admitted it directly. "So what if I sent him a message? I didn't do anything to hurt you. I just wanted to watch a show. What's wrong with that?"

Cao Bu nodded. "True, you indeed didn't do anything wrong."

Huan Ying looked delighted upon hearing this. "Then Big Brother, are you letting me go?"

The corners of Cao Bu's mouth curled up, and a dark, indistinct light flashed in his eyes. "Since you like watching shows, why not become a character in the show?"

Huan Ying was a bit puzzled. "What do you mean?"

Cao Bu laughed. "Big Brother is going to film a Movie with only two people, and I just happen to need a female lead. I think you're quite suitable; you have the potential of literal: white purity."

Huan Ying was dazed. "Movie? literal: white purity?"
