Chapter 18 Kill Xia Xialong

Soon, the vermilion gate of Xia Mansion and two mighty stone lions at the entrance appeared in front of Lin Yan.

Perhaps, except for Lin Yan, everyone else in Qingyang Town also thinks that the Xia Mansion is strict in managing the family and has a good family style. If someone dares to come to the house to find the Xia Mansion, it must be that this person is unreasonable.

However, today, Lin Yan not only wants to be an "unreasonable person" in the eyes of others, but also wants to kill Xia Tianlong, the head of the Xia family whom they regard as the "incarnation of justice and fairness in Qingyang Town"!

It is midsummer, and the sun is scorching, and the noise of cicadas does not stop people from sleeping. At noon, people are used to taking a nap.

At this moment, the Xia Mansion was very quiet. Lin Yan walked around the back of the mansion, climbed over the wall and entered the backyard, and then he got to the house of Xia Tianlong, the head of the Xia family.

Lin Yan did not bring a weapon, and the remaining long sword had already turned into rotten iron with the explosion of the corridor, but Lin Yan did not intend to find a weapon to kill him.

First, Xia Tianlong does not know how to do martial arts, second, he is just here to kill Xia Tianlong, not to wash away the Xia Mansion.

There was no one else in the quiet and ventilated corridor, and Lin Yan leaned against the door and listened carefully for a while.

After obtaining the goblin energy, his hearing became better. At this moment, he could easily hear someone snoring slightly in the room, and there was only one person.

Lin Yan felt relieved, pressed his hands on the door latch position, and tried to push it gently. The door latch was not inserted, and the door easily cracked a crack, making a nearly inaudible sound.

Until one-third of the door was opened, entered the room smoothly and closed the door again, Xia Tianlong, who was sleeping on a carved mahogany bed, was still snoring and not awake.

Lin Yan quietly walked to the bed and stared at Xia Tianlong with a calm face.

The Xia Mansion is particularly strict. Although the servants will not suffer abuse, if there is something that is not done well, it is common to be punished and scolded. Therefore, when the servants do things and serve their masters, they are usually careful, and they dare not walk too quickly, and they dare not make loud noises and chat and laugh, so that the Xia Mansion is extremely silent.

Lin Yan initially thought that Xia Tianlong was so upright that the Xia family style was so strict, but now looking at Xia Tianlong's face, Lin Yan felt a thick mask wearing it on the other person's face.

After a long time, Lin Yan kept staring at Xia Tianlong and did not let go of his sight.

Xia Tianlong, who was sleeping soundly, finally sensed something, and seemed to feel very uncomfortable. He first wiped his face with his hands a few times, as if he had wiped out dirty things. Then, he still felt uncomfortable, turned his body a few times, and slowly opened his eyes.

When a young face covered with frost appeared in his sight, Xia Tianlong's sleepy eyes suddenly opened wide. In addition to the uncontrollable surprise, there was also unconcealed anger and a hint of messy in his eyes.

Xia Tianlong held the bed with both hands and sat upright, maintaining the demeanor of a big family leader. He did not shout desperately for help, and even tightened a button of his clothes without panic, and said lightly: "You are so brave, you dare to break into my room without notice."

Lin Yan was furious, and he didn't expect that this old man was very arrogant, but then he understood again, knowing that this was just a calmness that Xia Tianlong pretended to be. The surprise and anger that appeared in his eyes when he woke up at first showed that Xia Tianlong was very nervous.

So, Lin Yan deliberately mocked a few words and said sarcastically: "Then it's still time to inform me now, my beloved head of the Xia family."

"You, you are arrogant!" Xia Tianlong seemed unable to stand others despise him so much, but he actually forgot his situation and was still scolding his servants as a head of the family.

"Stupid fart!" Lin Yan spat angrily, "You think I am still a servant, you are still the head of the family in my eyes, bullshit!" Lin Yan simply cursed mercilessly.

Before Xia Tianlong could speak, Lin Yan continued, "I see you so calm when you sleep, I must be at ease. I thought I had not shown up for so many days, so I must have died in the Niutou Mountain explosion, right? But I want to disappoint you, I am not dead, but the six people you sent were dead, including your younger brother Xia Shihu. And I might as well tell you one more thing, they were not crushed to death by stones, but at my hands!"

Lin Yan directly put a dose of strong medicine.

He knew Xia Tianlong, who was extremely hypocritical and liked to pretend to be righteous in front of others, but he was very greedy and afraid of death.

Sure enough, when she heard that Xia Shihu was dead and was still killed, Xia Tianlong obviously had a stagnant expression and his body trembled.

"You should know what I mean. Since I even killed Xia Shihu, there is nothing I dare to go into your room and kill you today!"

Lin Yan continued to apply strong medicine.

Xia Tianlong's mouth was already trembling, and his hands were trembling and pointed at Lin Yan and said angrily: "If you dare to kill me, no one in Qingyang Town will let you go!"

Lin Yan angrily shouted without hesitation: "So what if I kill you? The world is so great, is there no place for me, Lin Yan?" After that, Lin Yan took a step forward suddenly, exuding a cold murderous intent, oppressing Xia Tianlong.

Xia Tianlong was really scared. He was about to use his bitter plan to get Lin Yan's sympathy and forgiveness, but suddenly he thought of something, but he suddenly lost his fear. Instead, he was like a person who suddenly had bargaining chips and no longer panicked.

"No, you can't kill me, because I can do something for you."

Lin Yan pretended to be interested, then took a step back and restrained the murderous intent on his body.

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"I can rehabilitate you and Yu Ling."

"I have killed so many people, do you still care about the infamy of having an affair? Moreover, the fifth lady is dead. If she knows it underground, she will be afraid that she will raise her hands to agree to kill you! Besides, don't forget that Xia Ping, who framed me and the fifth lady, is your son!" Lin Yan said angrily.

Xia Tianlong thought he had seized the bargaining chips of negotiation, so he naturally refused to give up and continued to "induce": "Killing me doesn't mean much to you, and only I can remedy your grievances. Maybe you don't know that her family already knows about Yu Ling. For this reason, her family regards Yu Ling as a shame and refuses to let Yu Ling enter the ancestral hall and enter the family tree. He heard that Yu Ling's body happened to be discovered and salvaged by an acquaintance downstream. When she was sent home, her family buried her in the wilderness and did not enter the family cemetery. If she could wash away her grievances, it must be what Yu Ling wanted to see the most. After all, the reputation of a woman is very important whether she is alive or after she dies."

"But you are willing to embarrass your son? Isn't Xia Ping just smearing you in the face? With your temperament, would you be willing to do this?" Lin Yan asked back.

Before coming to Xia Mansion, he had already decided to kill Xia Tianlong. Now he took a step back because he pretended to see if he had the chance to make the fifth lady feel wronged. After all, Xia Tianlong was right. At present, only Xia Tianlong himself can rehabilitate their grievances.

"It's better to be embarrassed than to lose your life." Xia Tianlong said seriously, "I don't want to die, and Ping'er did it wrong."

Lin Yan was silent for a while, then sneered: "It's okay for me to spare your life. Anyway, killing you one more is not useful. Hurry up, write down my affairs clearly and stamp it with my fifth wife."

When Xia Tianlong heard this, he first covered up Xise very well, and then asked with concern: "How can I believe you? How do you know that you will not kill me after I finish what you asked?"

"I said I'll spare you." Lin Yan pretended to be impatient and shouted.

"You can swear." Xia Tianlong refused to give in.

"Okay," To Xia Tianlong's surprise, Lin Yan did not hesitate, nor did he suddenly attack him and force him to write the truth, but agreed directly, "I, Lin Yan, swear that as long as you, Xia Tianlong, write the truth, and give me justice and the fifth wife, I promise not to cause any trouble in the Xia Mansion in the future, and no longer touch a hair of Xia Tianlong. If you violate this vow, you will be hit by the five thunders and will not die well."

Xia Tianlongzai carefully listened to Lin Yan's oath word by word. At the end, he still reminded him: "Lin Yan, this is a great oath."

"If you want to tell me, of course I know. Why are you still standing there? Don't force me to change my mind." Lin Yan said coldly.

Although Xia Tianlong knew that Lin Yan hated him to the core, since the other party even made a poisonous oath, he could only choose to believe it. Otherwise, he would not have any doubt that Lin Yan would fight for the truth and not need to be cleansed of grievances, and would also kill him.

So, he got off the bed, walked straight to the desk, spread the paper, picked up the brush, pondered for a moment, and wrote down the morning events in detail, including the date of the occurrence, the person involved, the truth of the matter, and the real murderer. Finally, he, as Lin Yan, said, opened the drawer and took out his private seal, stamped the seal, and signed his name before handing the paper to Lin Yan.

Lin Yan looked carefully and confirmed that this piece of paper could make the fifth lady feel unjust and relieved. When the ink was dry, she carefully put it in her pocket.

"I've finished the matter. I will announce the truth in person in the Xia Mansion and give you justice and Yu Ling. Now, it's time for you to carry out your promise."

Xia Tianlong felt calm when he saw that Lin Yan did not turn against him on the spot, so he spoke calmly.

"No, it's time to execute your death." Lin Yan said lightly.

Xia Tianlong was shocked and said in a trembling voice: "Lin Yan, you, are you going to violate the poisonous oath?"

Lin Yan smiled coldly and said, "For the person who wants to kill me, I must kill him. Even if I betray my oath and get hit by the five thunders? If you don't kill you, God will blame me and abandon me! The fifth lady will crawl out of the grave and blame me! Xia Tianlong, you will die!"

After saying that, Lin Yan quickly moved forward, and his right palm covered with energy slapped Xia Tianlong's left chest. The terrifying vitality immediately poured into Xia Tianlong's chest, smashing a black heart to pieces!

Xia Tianlong even had time to scream and fell into the Grand Master's chair and died!

Lin Yan glanced at the corpse, then pushed open the door and walked out.

Afterwards, Lin Yan took several turns in the corridor and arrived in front of the door of the Fourth Master Xia of Xia's house.

Xia Anzhi is a scholar who likes traveling. On the morning of the day when things happened, Xia Anzhi was not in the mansion. This is one of the reasons why Lin Yan was ordered to drown in a hurry. If Xia Anzhi was there, with the honesty of this middle-aged scholar, he would definitely suggest that the matter be investigated carefully first.

Pushing the door and Lin Yan was shocked by Xia Anzhi who was reciting a book.

Lin Yan did not greet Xia Anzhi, ignored the surprise on Xia Anzhi's face. He took out the piece of paper written by Xia Tianlong and handed it over, saying calmly: "Xia Tianlong is an accomplice to kill the fifth lady. He also sent six people from the Xia Mansion, including Xia Shihu, to chase me, and I killed him. The content written on this piece of paper restores the truth about the incident that morning. It was written by Xia Tianlong himself. I hope you can tell the truth to Xia Mansion and Yu Ling's family."

Then, Lin Yan changed into a cold tone: "Don't try to get rid of it. I still have a copy of the same one here, which was also written by Xia Tianlong. If I asked me to find out the truth about the matter and were not told to the two families, I wouldn't mind sending the paper in my arms to the Hou family in Qingyang Town. The Hou family hated the Xia family to the core. I must be happy to see the Xia family scandal broke out and were ruined."

After saying that, Lin Yan stopped looking at Xia Anzhi and calmly left the room. Then he thought of something. He found a secret lattice that hid silver from his previous room, put the saved three ingots of broken silver into his arms, and then flipped over the back wall and left the Xia Mansion.

Lin Yan believed that whether Xia Anzhi was a scholar or the consideration of the entire Xia family, he would definitely help him and the fifth wife get rid of that embarrassing shame.
