Chapter 1252 - Something Peculiar Happened to Lin Xiang

Panda Novel

“Xiang Xiang!”

“Sister!”

Chen Xiaobei and Lin Xiang both called out at the same time to the person strolling towards them.

Her dark hair fell around her shoulders, caressing the white, supple skin of her neck.

Over her tall frame, a cotton cheongsam hung just loose enough to show off the lusty curves of her body, undulating and bulging in all the right places.

As she walked out of the cave, the sunlight washed away the shadows, revealing her lovely countenance.

It was Lin Xiang.

Once a gentle, obedient damsel, Lin Xiang had rid herself of her frailty in exchange of resolution!

“Shijie!”

Instead of addressing Chen Xiaobei and Lin Nan, Lin Xiang greeted Lin Chaoyin, the expression on her face gaving nothing away.

“Sister! What happened to you? Did all that cultivating damage your brain? Why didn’t you react to us?”

Lin Nan frowned, unhappy with his sister’s attitude.

Chen Xiaobei said nothing. It was no surprise, considering Wei Shenjing’s strange behavior earlier. Something was going on!

Lin Xiang was watching Lin Chaoyin quietly, as if Lin Nan had not spoken at all.

“Faction Leader Lin! What’s wrong with my sister?” Lin Nan was so troubled that he forgot his manners. “Every time my father called, you told him that my sister is perfectly fine! But why doesn’t she recognize me now?”

“Er…” Lin Chaoyin appeared to be as taken aback as Lin Nan. “Shimei Lin, what happened? Yesterday when I told you that Mr. Chen and your brother are visiting, you were very excited but why –”

Before Lin Chaoyin could finish her sentence, Lin Xiang suddenly drew a dagger.

Zing!

The blade was moving quickly towards Lin Chaoyin’s throat at a speed of about 7,000- 8,000 combat power, the later phase of Qi refining stage.

It may not sound very fast but Lin Xiang was standing very close to Lin Chaoying, who was caught completely off guard!

The dagger glowed green which meant that it was soaked in poison. The attack would be fatal!

As the dagger was just inches away from her throat, Lin Chaoyin’s pupils contracted, her heart skipped a beat as she braced herself for what was about to come!

She would never have in a million years thought that she would die in the hands of Lin Xiang!

Swoosh!

Suddenly, a shadow flashed past. It moved so quickly that even the Celestial Cultivation Lin Chaoyin could only see a blurry figure!

The shadow grabbed the dagger in from Lin Xiang and placed a hand on an acupuncture point on the nape of her neck, and she fell to the ground unconscious.

“What just happened?” Lin Nan swallowed. He had only felt a gust of strong wind move past him but saw nothing.

“Mr. Chen, you saved me.” Lin Chaoyin was still in a state of shock!

The sudden attack had shaken her up.

And the strength Chen Xiaobei had demonstrated only added to her bewilderment.

If it were not for the fact that the dagger was in Chen Xiaobei’s left hand and an unconscious Lin Xiang was on his right, Lin Xiang would not have believed that this callow kid had such formidable strength!

“Don’t just stand there! Go get Wei Shenjing! She knows something!” Chen Xiaobei instructed.

“Alright, I’ll go.” Lin Chaoyin had yet to recover from the fright, but she was lucid enough to move as quickly as she could, doing as she was told.

“Brother-in-law? What happened? What is wrong with my sister?” Lin Nan asked, apprehensive.

With Chen Xiaobei’s medical skills, he was able to tell, with just one look if Lin Xiang was unwell. But right now, he had ruled out ailment and poisoning.

“Maybe someone used Tame Head on her?” Another possibility came to mind. Chen Xiaobei tossed the dagger aside and produced a golden colored beetle. “Xiao’er, take a whiff and tell me if there’s a Hexworm scent?”

Lin Nan was too strung out to notice the little creature.

“No,” Xiao’er said confidently. “There’s no Hexworm scent at all.”

“Huh…” Chen Xiaobei was astonished.

Lin Xiang’s deviance was most certainly induced by external influence.

But other than illness and poison, Tame Head was the only other thing Chen Xiaobei could think of that could be used to control another person’s behavior.

If all of these possibilities were eliminated, Chen Xiaobei had no other theory.

“No! Brother-in-law! Even you don’t know?” Lin Nan was on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

To him, there was no one else who could match up to Chen Xiaobei. So, if even Chen Xiaobei did not know what to do, then did it mean that his sister would never be able to recover?

Lin Nan hunched over miserably at this thought.

Since an early age, he and his sister were dependant on each other. Raised by his sister, Lin Nan’s attachment to Lin Xiang superseded his attachment to his birth father, Professor Lin. If Lin Xiang could never return to being herself again, his whole world would crumble!

“Calm down! We still have a chance!” Chen Xiaobei said. “That Wei Shenjing knows something! We only need to find out the cause for me to be able to cure your sister!”

“Really? I knew it! Brother-in-law, you’re the best! There’s nothing you cannot do!”

Lin Nan’s eyes reddened.

“Mr. Chen! I got her!”

This was Lin Chaoyin’s turf after all. Wei Shenjing was captured before she could make a run for it.

“Tell me everything you know, right now! And I might let you live! Of course, even if you refuse to talk, I know one hundred ways to make you open your mouth! Any of those methods will make you wish you were dead!”

Chen Xiaobei’s eyes bore into Wei Shenjing like a pair of gimlets.

Wei Shenjing inhaled sharply, when she felt a cold bout of pressure hovering over the top of her head!

It was like a hovering ice mountain that would crumble down on her, breaking every bone in her body, if her answer was not to Chen Xiaobei’s satisfaction.

“I’ll talk! I’ll talk! As long as you don’t kill me, I will tell you whatever you want.”

Wei Shenjing went down on her knees. Chen Xiaobei’s pressure had broken her.
