The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1569 - 1568: Speaking Up in Support

"I don't know, I know nothing, and don't expect to get anything out of me. Kill or cut as you wish!"Compared to Tang Rao, Yan Lin was more wary of the person behind him.

A man who could conjure clouds with one hand and rain with the other, a man who could make his life a living hell. Just the thought of the consequences of betraying this man made Yan Lin tremble uncontrollably.

"I'm not such a bloodthirsty person. You know Zhou Runfa, right? The late-stage God who tried to kill me several times? Just yesterday, I rewarded him to my brothers. My brothers like to skin people alive. If you don't prove your worth, you'll probably end up among them. By the way, your face is much better-looking than those balds. He'll definitely like it!"

Tang Rao spoke a few truths, never intending to intimidate Yan Lin, but Yan Lin took Tang Rao's words to heart.

Yan Lin was drenched in cold sweat. What happened in Kao Shan Sect's prison yesterday was already spread widely outside, especially the emergence of eight faceless corpses, shocking all of Tingzhou and the entire West Island.

In the future, never say Tang Rao is incapable of anything, as that would be an insult to him.

The things that happened to Tang Rao could be divided into two categories: those Tang Rao deemed important and those he didn't. After reading through it twice, there was no mention of anything Tang Rao feared.

"Just kill me. Whether I speak or not, I'm dead either way. Rather than living a fate worse than death, just give me a quick death at your hands."

Wishful thinking!

Just when Tang Rao noticed Yan Lin was about to bite his tongue to kill himself, he chanted a mnemonic to double the strength of the Binding Immortal Rope. Once Yan Lin felt the pain on his body, he naturally forgot about committing suicide by biting his tongue.

"In this world, death is the hardest thing, yet also the easiest. As your number one enemy, how could I fulfill your wish to die when you want it so much?"

Tang Rao bared his teeth, showing two neat rows of teeth that gleamed chillingly white in the sunlight, making Yan Lin's scalp tingle.

"This thumb ring is quite nice. You say how do you Soul Capturing Masters capture souls, is it true skill or just by touching a thumb ring? How about I try capturing your soul, from now on you'll be my experiment."

To endure life but unable to die, Yan Lin remained silent, and that was his outcome.

Perhaps hearing a commotion in the backyard, Bai Xiaotong rushed to the back after finishing her tasks in the front and kicked Tang Rao upon seeing him.

"I knew you were a troublemaker. Besides causing trouble, what else can you do in this place of tenderness? Do you know how much it affects my business when you attack the guests here?"

Money, the greater the impact, the more money lost. Tang Rao understood this reasoning all too well.

"Tang Rao, quickly release the guest, and apologize regardless of what offensive words he might have said earlier. Just for your Auntie's sake, it's not the time to expand the conflict. The things you broke earlier, Auntie won't ask you to compensate, alright?"

Bai Xiaotong was like a chanting monk to Tang Rao, who only saw her as noisy.

"Auntie, asking me to release a criminal before you understand the situation, could it be that you have some indescribable relationship with the criminals of East Island?"

What, criminals of East Island? Indescribable relationship?

Bai Xiaotong almost couldn't spit saltwater at Tang Rao.

"Nonsense, I'm just trying to salvage the reputation of this place of tenderness. You're the one with an indescribable relationship with this criminal, not me, and I won't admit it at all."

Bai Xiaotong took a closer look at Yan Lin. Actually, she genuinely wanted to say that Yan Lin was not bad-looking, but unfortunately, he's not her type. Really talking about developing any other relationship, there's no chance.

"You still haven't told me why you tied him up, what did he do to offend you?"

Today she must get to the bottom of this, not allowing Tang Rao to wrong an innocent person.

Yan Lin gave a big thumbs-up to Tang Rao's genuinely kind-hearted aunt. He now placed all his hopes on Bai Xiaotong.

"Miss, you should know I came from East Island to North Island, wanting to start a small business here. However, I've had no luck. After much consideration, I felt North Island wasn't suitable for my development, so I thought about returning to East Island. I came to this place of tenderness to have a drink, even if I left, there would be no regrets. But this gentleman said I have a grudge against him, that I harmed people, and wanted me to reveal some 'mastermind.' I swear I know nothing. Please help me, or he'll skin me alive!"

Yan Lin's acting was on point, even squeezing a few tears while speaking. Coupled with his youthful and notable face, he gained quite some sympathy points with Bai Xiaotong.

"Look, this young man says he's wronged. Why are you accusing him? With such delicate skin, who would believe he could do such heinous things? Today, Auntie will make the decision, you release him right away. You must understand the longing to return home, so don't trouble him anymore."

Bai Xiaotong extended her hand, "Release him quickly, or I'll get really angry."

A beautiful woman getting angry, in front of others, they'd just give in, of course, listening to the beauty, and quickly release. But Tang Rao wasn't like others, instead, he slapped Bai Xiaotong on the head, making her forehead hurt.

"I say, are you really that naïve? Your nephew and niece-in-law almost fell into his hands, and when faced with beauty your elbows bend outward. Are you going to listen to my explanation?"

It had always been Yan Lin and Bai Xiaotong talking, not giving Tang Rao a chance to speak.

"The Soul Capturing Master that Xiao Xiao encountered some time ago was him. Knowing the truth, do you still plan to release him?"

"Release... No, what did you say, he's the Soul Capturing Master?" Bai Xiaotong pinched herself hard twice, saying, "Alright, so you are the Soul Capturing Master, you had the nerve to lie to me saying you came for business. No way, let's see how I deal with you later!"

To have deceived even this lady, what's intolerable is intolerable, not to mention Bai Xiaotong's niece-in-law, lively and lovely, was heard to wash her face with tears every day at home after being soul-captured by Yan Lin, no longer as lively as before. All of this was because of Yan Lin. Yan Lin must be punished, severely punished.

"Tang Rao, I heard about the skinning happening in the prison yesterday. Zhang Wang should have enough human skins, how about we change the way to torture people and play with throwing them in oil while alive?"

Bai Xiaotong gave a sly smile, undeniably, she had never watched someone being thrown into an oil pot alive. Imagining that scene, her little heart was pounding, she was quite excited.
