The Spirit World

Chapter 709 [,]

[I knew they were pitiful when they were born... because their parents couldn't even support themselves, how could they expect to support them well? ]

There will no longer be an experimental subject named α17503038 in the world, only a "person" named Chang Yufeng will remain.

I, Chang Yufeng, will become the hope of everyone in this world...

This is the true face of this world.

【Longxing Building, banquet hall】

"Finally, with the good news of the Dragon Expedition Conference being confirmed, I solemnly announce to everyone a piece of good news about myself, to wish the Dragon Expedition Conference a smooth success and to contribute to the talent pool of the Principality." Locke put all the manuscripts behind his back, and stretched out one hand like a blade out of its sheath towards the steps of the inner hall. There was a secret door there, and inside the secret door stood Lin'er...

She will be solemnly introduced as the youngest daughter of this man. To the outside world, she is the daughter left behind, and internally, they have no relationship. However, she must have this title.

Because she was threatened. She was told where those girls were going, and if she didn't cooperate, those girls would disappear from her sight one by one.

She had seen the bone of a little finger.

In order to let her know what the shape of the little finger joint is, Locke gave her a bone lesson.

It's very short, only a few minutes, because you only need to recognize the bones of the little finger...

Locke held her shoulders and watched Monica's little finger being cut off. Monica's eyes changed from horror to complaint in just a moment when the knife passed by because she refused Locke's request.

In Locke's opinion, it is too easy to control a person or destroy a person... So when he saw Lin'er's refusal, he cut off the little finger without blinking. His eyes were fixed on Lin'er, as if Lin'er was the culprit who caused the little finger to fall on the table.

And on that table, there was a clear cut mark. That table was now used as the most important table, where the representatives of the four major families sat. The blood on it had long been wiped clean. It was the blood of a girl named Monica, and the blood came from her little finger, but it was no longer important.

History is history, and the past is the past.

"I, Locke, have never had a daughter in my life... I am afraid I will regret it for the rest of my life and die alone. I am so sad that I cannot recover." Locke gestured to Lin'er to move forward with some sadness, but the pain was still evident in his eyes. What he said was of course true. He should have died alone. Perhaps it should be like this now...

"I thought I would never be able to find my little girl. But, here she is...Lin...my daughter...come and say hello to everyone...they want to see you."

Locke seemed to know the purpose of everyone's visit, which was this girl, because he had already released the news. Locke welcomed her daughter, a unique genius in the world and the future successor of Longxing Society.

Lin'er took a step forward, as if everyone's eyes knew that there would be such a person between the partitions. That person's name was Lin. That person would be Locke's daughter and the backbone of Longxing Society in the future.

Will be a puppet behind the scenes.

In fact, no one cares so much about what Locke said... Sometimes, what everyone knows in their hearts may be more than what he says.

Longxing Society, Locke, is fighting for a future for himself.

"Is it finally here?" Freddy looked at the figure on the steps. The person who was still hesitating whether to come up to the stage was like a timid little rabbit. She didn't know what was in front of her...

She didn't understand how everyone was looking at this place.

They may be looking forward to it, or they may be afraid...

Lin'er looked at those people's faces. Even though she didn't recognize any of them, everyone would recognize her at this moment.

She saw the section of her little finger fall to the ground. Monica's resentful face was like the tip of a knife stabbing into her eyes, causing her upper eyelid to tremble, then pulling her eyelid upwards, causing her hand to tremble as well.

Locke was able to come back to his senses and see Lin'er. He looked at Lin'er calmly, waiting for Lin'er's response.

Lin'er saw his eyes, so calm that it made her feel a little scared. It was not the expression of any emotion, but the chill in her spine that was like falling into an abyss with no bottom.

Lin'er took another step forward.

"Are you shy?" Xiao Er stared at Lin'er's shadow suddenly. If she was a very confident person, she would not be so shy.

"Is it... strange?" Lilimaren looked at Shaw, who nodded.

"At least you shouldn't be stage-frightened..." Shaw believed that if Locke needed to find a future successor, he shouldn't be stage-frightened. Longxinghui was not an ordinary inherited family, but a very extreme mess.

An ordinary family heir would not look for a stage-fearing person, unless that stage-fearing heir is the heir in line, which would also be very troublesome and cause trouble.

In short, no one would leave a large family to a child who is not brave enough to face others.

Of course, this is what Shor thought too. In fact, there are not so many rigid rules for the character of any family heir. It can only be said that the Theatus family is like this. As the heir of the family, Shor does not understand Freddy and Lilimarlene, or even Anna at all, because when they were six years old, they were really like six-year-old children, afraid of strangers, not daring to speak loudly in the crowd, and they did not have the adult demeanor of a young parent at all. This is completely incomprehensible to him.

Lin'er was a little stage-frightened and of course hesitant.

"Come here, daughter...Everyone wants to meet you and can't wait."

Locke's mouth was moving, but it was as if these words had never come out of his mouth before. Lin'er even felt a little nauseous...

This afternoon, she heard rumors about Locke. From the little boy she had been looking for day and night, she learned that all the money of the Longxing Society came from the disgusting Red Flower District and Green Flower District. To put it bluntly, the money was really dirty, and as a modern person, she was resistant to it.

There is no absolute prohibition on soft pornography or hard pornography among modern people, and we cannot ask the spiritual world to ban such things. We can only say that such things are indeed difficult to say. In ancient times, there was the Yihongyuan, brothels, and singing girls. It would be too strange to say that there were no such things in the spiritual world.

However, it would be too disgraceful for those who have made their fortune in this industry to have any conscience or virtue. All we can say is that such things can exist, and as long as they have nothing to do with ourselves, there is no problem. But if they are related to ourselves, all kinds of problems will arise.

A person who can only rely on his looks and body to earn money is nothing new. After all, there is nothing new under the sun. It is immoral, so let it be immoral...

It seems natural that miserable people do miserable things...

If a person can only be a screw all his life, then it is better for him not to study, because he will see how beautiful the outside world is. But if he can only farm in obscurity all his life, anyone would go crazy. It is better for him not to go out at all.

Lin'er has no parents. She follows her master and never practices martial arts or swordsmanship, but she has learned a good outlook on life. The greatest pleasure of following her master is to go to lectures and travel around the world with those strange immortals. Only then can you know the real fun. No one can travel around the world. Either you are carefree or you have enough money to buy the services of others.

Everyone has troubles. There is no need to worry about who is rich. That is all bullshit. The essence of wealth accumulation is to crush others. Whoever wants to be rich cannot escape this weird circle.

"What are you thinking?"

Dressed in red, like a moon splattered with blood, she stood beside Lin'er, calmly on the steps.

"I was thinking, could I... not do this..." Lin'er thought of the boy who was hit on the mouth and head, and he told himself that he should not trust Locke.

"If you don't do that, a lot of people will die." She was much taller than Lin'er, her height was even close to Locke's. She was incredibly slim, but her height was not very ladylike.

"I know... but to be honest, they don't have a strong relationship with me... I mean... they are not that important... I met them in a flood-stricken area... They are just... another group of poor children..."

She retreated a little... because of Monica's fear and resentment... She didn't know if she could really bear so much kindness...

"Hello..." A voice sounded in Lin'er's ears.

She and Lin'er looked over there and saw Chang Yufeng standing behind them.

"Lin'er... come with me and leave here..." Chang Yufeng looked at Lin'er standing in a daze in the shadow of the stairs. He saw this scene when he came out of the prison.

He walked through various halls and realized that they were placed here.

"Your...heart?" She looked at Chang Yufeng's face, hugged the sword in her hand to her chest, and said unconvincedly: "It's really annoying... It seems like you want to love him for the rest of your life..."

Chang Yufeng didn't know that she thought he couldn't see her, so he frowned, looked at her, and reached out to grab Lin'er's hand.

"Why are you here?" Lin'er looked at Chang Yufeng in surprise. His arrival made her surprise even louder.

Her hand was pulled unexpectedly at first, but she wanted to break free and pulled Chang Yufeng inward.

"I actually want to ask you why you are here." Chang Yufeng glanced at her and spoke to Lin'er in a very soft voice: "It's just that there is no time now... We must leave here quickly... Otherwise, we will be in trouble..."

Chang Yufeng's face was also fair and beautiful in the shadows. No one could understand why he was more beautiful than a girl...

Maybe it’s because the gods are close to heaven and earth, and when heaven and earth are close to them, they become truly “beautiful”.

He knew that this matter could not be delayed, so he pulled Lin'er to leave... But Lin'er wanted to move but did not move...

"Long..." Lin'er lifted her heels off the ground and slowly pressed down...

"You can't take her away..." The corners of her mouth slightly raised, and then slowly let go: "No one can take him away... This time... It's just... fate."

"Is it my destiny to become the daughter of a villain?" Chang Yufeng frowned and looked up at her.

She saw his eyes and suddenly squatted down. As Chang Yufeng's gaze moved down, their eyes met, and she smiled even more happily: "Fate...can't be escaped...haven't you realized yet? This girl...is just such a chess piece."

"I know. So, I don't want her to repeat it pointlessly..." Chang Yufeng glanced at Lin'er and wanted to pull her forward again, but there was no response. Lin'er looked at her with a strong desire to leave, but she was as firm as a female stake. Chang Yufeng couldn't pull her at all...

"You are also a repetitive person... Although you have the possibility, it is nothing but asking for trouble..." She snorted, pressed Chang Yufeng's head with her big palm, and pushed hard against her forehead.

Chang Yufeng's forehead hit hers with a bang.

“Hahahaha… You’re actually pretty good at realizing this… Among hundreds of thousands of you, there’s only one sheep like you…”

She stood up, put away the sword using magic, and slowly stood there.

"I can't leave... Many people will die because of me..." Lin'er looked at Chang Yufeng. Locke, who was on the podium, put down the manuscript and walked over with some confusion.

He didn't see Chang Yufeng, nor did he see her. He only saw a girl standing there in a daze.

This girl's name is Lin...perhaps she is Locke's daughter in the future.

"You must leave... otherwise..." Chang Yufeng's hand grabbed Lin'er's arm like a claw, and the red blood began to flow slowly...

"Lin... please don't let me down..." Locke looked at Lin'er's arm that was suddenly bleeding, pulled her over, and dragged her slowly towards the bright podium.

"No!" Chang Yufeng's hand was pulled very long, and he was swaying like a noodle on a swing due to the force of being dragged...

"Lin'er..." Chang Yufeng shouted on the spot, his face slowly turned into Monica's ferocious face...The woman in red also stood quietly on the spot, slowly disappearing.

"I don't..." Lin'er blurted out, but Locke grabbed the bloodstain, held it tightly, and broke it fiercely, making her speechless for a while due to the pain.

"Look at the audience..." Locke grabbed Lin'er's hand, gritted his teeth, and conveyed these words to Lin'er in a vibrating voice.

On the stage, Monica and a group of little girls sat quietly below. Next to each of them sat an adult who looked like a parent... There was no light in their eyes...

Not even timid...

And she seemed to have seen someone he shouldn't have seen.

Chang Yufeng stood in the audience, and when everyone's eyes were on Lin'er, Chang Yufeng also stared at her.

The light in Lin'er's eyes slowly dissipated. Perhaps those stars could not save anyone.

She wanted to break free, but her right hand was held tightly, accidentally breaking a bone. Although her body was slowly repairing the bone, the pain was still so severe that it went straight to her heart.
