Dating My Scumbag Ex's Uncle Chapter 928 Hostage

A comforting warmth gradually spread through my abdomen. While a flicker of worry surfaced, I felt an undeniable surge of strength coursing through my limbs, a power I couldn't even begin to suppress.

Lin Nan let out a soft chuckle. "Nanxing, be a good girl. You truly have no other choice."

One of the timid, foolish women hesitantly asked, "If we remain obedient, does that mean we won't face death?"

Lin Nan immediately interjected with a gentle tone, "Indeed. All of you were innocent from the start."

Several pairs of glistening eyes turned towards me.

I couldn't help but let out a sigh from deep within my heart.

Lin Nan raised her hand, signaling the archers stationed at the door. They promptly drew their bows, aiming directly at us. "Nanxing, this is your final opportunity. I shall count to ten..."

Before she could complete her sentence, I stomped my feet, landing behind Lin Nan. With a swift kick, I sent the guard behind her flying. My left hand snaked out, seizing her by the neck. "There's no need for you to count," I stated coldly. "I shall do the counting for you!"

The pressure from my grip caused Lin Nan's face to turn a disturbing shade of purple, her eyes rolling back. Releasing her, I declared in a clear voice, "Lower your crossbows. My temper is not easily managed. Provoke me, make me nervous, and your master's life will be extinguished."

The archers exchanged glances, their movements faltering with hesitation.

I lifted my leg and propelled Fu He, who was visibly terrified, into the assembled crowd. A collective scream erupted from Fu He and those he collided with.

Addressing the crowd, I spoke with cold determination, "The thing I despise most in this life is moral manipulation. How I choose to use my blood to save individuals, and whom I choose to save, is entirely my prerogative. No one else possesses the right to interfere. I've stated this before: whether I save lives or take them rests solely on my whim. If you intend to force my compliance, then let us engage in battle. The victor shall reign supreme. What say you?"

As I tightened my grip, Lin Nan's eyes rolled back further, eliciting gasps of shock from the ladies present, who stumbled back in fear. The archers outside also lowered their weapons, aiming them toward the ground.

I let out a sneer. "Does anyone else still wish to depart? I have made my decision to remain. I am not anyone's savior, and I bear no obligation to rescue anyone from peril. I expect no gratitude from any of you. Those who wish to leave are free to flee for their lives. As for those who choose to stay, I shall not interfere. My promise to everyone remains valid: I will guarantee the safety of those who depart. Should the need arise in the future, you will always be welcome at the Tong family for cooperation!"

My gaze shifted to the individual blocking the doorway. "If your master's life holds any value to you, then stand aside. If not, prepare yourselves. I vow to fight you to the very end!"

I released Lin Nan's hand from her neck. She immediately doubled over, gasping for air.

The instant she bent over, she cunningly countered with an elbow strike aimed at an acupuncture point before my chest. I intercepted Lin Nan's hand, and simultaneously, I bent my knees, delivering a powerful blow to her abdomen.

The very moment I initiated my attack, my strength surged. My transformation ability must have returned.

Lin Nan collapsed to the ground, writhing in pain. I seized her, then swiftly retrieved all the silver needles from the concealed pouch on her waist. Before everyone's watchful eyes, I deliberately pierced my own left arm and hurled the needles at the guards who had seized the opportunity to raise their crossbows.

The silver needles lacked perfect accuracy; only three or four guards were struck. The bolts that were fired, however, were all aimed directly at me. I weaved and dodged, evading left and right. Tragically, a few of the foolish women were struck by the arrows, collapsing to the ground with pained screams.

I kịp time to grab Lin Nan, who had managed to get up and was attempting to flee. Smearing the blood from the silver needles on my left arm onto her own, I stated coldly, "Do you not wish to aid all living beings? Then I shall have you experience the Phoenix Blood first!"
