As they walked away, the Lin Family not far off was bustling with activity...
Previously, Lin Chong, who personally went to chase Lin Ling'er, felt the storm brewing outside and a faint cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth...
Before, after Lin Chong returned, he found the family atmosphere was a bit off!
After carefully understanding the situation, Lin Chong knew that the atmosphere was off because his uncle's health was getting worse!
Knowing he was preparing to give up the position of Family Head to enjoy his final years, Lin Chong was extremely pleased.
The only thing Lin Chong had cared about for so many years was the position of Family Head!
In order to successfully sit on the throne of Family Head, he resorted to all means and even went as far as to poison his own sister...
To be honest, when he poisoned her initially, Lin Chong felt somewhat conflicted!
But later, Lin Chong thought of his aspirations; he thought the Family Head position could only belong to him, so he had no choice but to forsake Lin Ling'er!
"This time, for the position of Family Head, I'm fully prepared, so I absolutely won't give anyone else the slightest chance!"
Speaking excitedly to himself, Lin Chong opened the window, looking coldly into the distance...
At that moment, Lin Chong saw many people hurrying around everywhere...
Lin Chong knew the younger generation in the family were trying every possible method to seize the position of Family Head...
He felt these people were completely wasting their time, as from the beginning to the end, the position of Family Head could only possibly be his. Besides him, no one else was qualified, because compared to him, they were far too lacking...
At this time, while he was envisioning a perfect future, in the next room, Lin Chong's henchman was sighing in frustration...
Previously, he failed in his mission to find Lin Ling'er, and failed thoroughly...
This complete failure had severely tarnished his image in Lin Chong's eyes.
So, he was truly at the peak of frustration!
He knew the family struggle was about to begin, so he wanted to quickly restore his standing in Lin Chong's heart, but he knew it wasn't going to be simple...
"Previously, those talismans failed at critical times, otherwise, I wouldn't have ended up so embarrassed!"
Previously, he used those talismans to track Lin Ling'er, but all the talismans failed...
This failure brought him complete disgrace!
So, even discussing this matter now left him feeling heartbroken...
Feeling somewhat on the brink of madness, he once again looked coldly at the talismans in front of him.
Soon, he stood there dumbfounded with a sudden shock!
The reason for this was that at that moment, he discovered all the talismans in front of him began to react.
"Why are they responding now, could it be... could it be that Lin Ling'er is nearby?"
As this idea flashed in his mind, he looked excitedly at the talismans...
In the next moment, he prepared to share his speculation with Lin Chong, but in the same instant, he was dumbstruck...
Because he saw every talisman begin to burn.
"This... this... this..."
Watching them turn to ash bit by bit, he was at a loss for words...
Two minutes later, he snapped out of his daze!
Looking bitterly at the ashes, he murmured, "What the hell is going on! How could these talismans completely fail all at once! Could it be... could it be..."
As he muttered to himself in this manner, he thought of one possibility.
At this moment, his face turned extremely grim...
"If my guess is right, then... then it's really quite terrifying!"
Muttering this to himself quietly, he took a deep breath, and in the next instant, he dashed out wildly from there...
Quickly, he arrived at the door of Lin Chong's room next door!
Under normal circumstances, he would have knocked patiently, but now there was no time...
Looking at the locked door, he pushed it open without hesitation.
...
"What the hell is going on?"
Inside the room, Lin Chong was imagining himself as the Family Head when he heard the door being quickly pushed open!
At this moment, he nearly wet his pants.
Quickly regaining his composure, he looked towards the door...
In the next second, he roared furiously, "Are you crazy?!"
Before, he was truly afraid because he worried the other candidates might want to eliminate him as an obstacle...
Upon hearing Lin Chong's furious roar, he knew just how angry Lin Chong was!
"Young master, I..."
"Don't explain, just tell me what's going on! I'm telling you, if it's not important, you're finished this time!"
Lin Chong looked at him with disgust!
Right now, Lin Chong recalled how useless he had been before!
In Lin Chong's view, if he couldn't offer a reasonable explanation now, he would have to settle all past grudges together...
Feeling Lin Chong's disgust, he knew what Lin Chong was thinking...
Taking a deep breath, he quickly spoke, "Young master, I... I really have something important to tell you this time!"
Having said that, he quickly recounted all the previous events in great detail...
Afterward, he looked at Lin Chong...
Lin Chong frowned deeply and said coldly, "You mean the talismans all burned up at once?"
Hearing this cold inquiry, he nodded vigorously, "Yes! That's exactly it, it shouldn't have been possible under normal circumstances!"
"Then why do you think this happened? Rushing here in such a hurry, you must have thought of some possibility!"
"Yes! I thought of one possibility, which is that her poison was neutralized by someone! The talismans detect the toxins in her body, so if her poison was neutralized, they naturally disappeared!"
"How likely do you think her poison being neutralized is?"
"This... ninety percent!"
Actually... actually he wanted to say one hundred percent now!
But he knew saying that number would make the scene even more awkward, so he hesitated and left a little leeway!
"Ninety percent? That means it's really possible she's been detoxified!"
Saying this, he coldly looked at his henchman, speaking icily, "Before, you assured me this poison was an absolutely terrifying symbiotic toxin, impossible to neutralize, now... now what's going on?"
"This... I don't know either! Logically, such a symbiotic toxin has no solution! Unless..."
Struggling to the end, he suddenly thought of one possibility, and his expression turned somewhat somber...
"Unless what?"
"Unless she is willing to remove her Ice Marrow Body! Young master, this toxin is symbiotic with her Ice Marrow Body, so unless she removes the Ice Marrow Body, there's really no way to remove it!"
"You mean even though she's detoxified now, she no longer possesses the Ice Marrow Body!"
"That's right!"
"Well, if that's the case, then there's nothing to worry about! The thing I feared most was her Ice Marrow Body, now that she doesn't have it, she poses no threat to me anymore!"
Previously, Lin Chong really feared Lin Ling'er's Ice Marrow Body the most!
Now, knowing her Ice Marrow Body is likely gone, he didn't care at all...
Because he knew Lin Ling'er without the Ice Marrow Body was like a tiger without teeth, posing no threat at all...
