Making you a son-in-law is not about making you conquer the world.

"Brother Wang, stop! You can't kill him!" Just as Lin Ping was about to die, a white figure rushed in from outside the door.

Startled by the voice, Xia Linglong turned his head back in confusion, clearly trying to confirm the identity of the person who had entered.

"It's you?" Xia Linglong's eyes were full of disdain, his eyebrows slightly raised, showing no respect to the other party.

He is the Crown Prince, and in the entire Wu Kingdom, apart from the King, she has the highest status. She certainly doesn't have the habit of giving others a friendly look.

"Brother Wang, this man must not be killed," Xia Yeran said breathlessly, clearly having rushed over immediately after receiving the news, and even hurriedly went to find a carriage.

On the day of the wedding, Xia Yeran noticed Lin Ping's anger. After learning more about the situation, she planned to apologize in person when he calmed down a bit. However, he couldn't wait any longer.

If it had been any later, Lin Ping would have lost his life long ago.

"Can't kill? Give me a reason!" Xia Linglong glanced at him disdainfully, her teeth gleaming with intense killing intent, giving people an invisible sense of oppression, even making it hard to breathe.

"This..." Xia Yeran was speechless for a moment, stammering and unable to utter a complete sentence.

It wasn't that Xia Yiran couldn't find a reason to keep Lin Ping alive, but rather that there were too many reasons, and he didn't know which one to use. He was determined to use the simplest sentences to achieve the greatest effect.

"Hmph, since he can't say it, there's no need for him to continue living." Xia Linglong's voice was even colder and more contemptuous as he grabbed Lin Ping by the neck and lifted him above his head with his thick, powerful arm.

This is not only a humiliation of Lin Ping, but also an insult to his dignity.

I'll lift you over my head and see what happens? No need to try, you wouldn't dare!

"If he dies, Wang Mei will not survive either."

In a moment of desperation, Xia Yeran blurted out everything without reservation.

He knew Xia Linglong's personality too well, and he knew what she was thinking and who she loved.

Once she has chosen a man, she will follow him for life, and if he dies, she will not live on alone.

The more a princess is pampered from a young age, the more stubborn her personality becomes; not even ten oxen could pull her back.

Hahaha……

Xia Linglong suddenly burst into laughter, but his voice was filled with coldness and eeriness.

"Who said I'm going to kill him? I'm going to cut off his hands and feet, and ruin his face, to see if he can still win over my little sister." Xia Linglong's face was ferocious, and every word pierced Lin Ping's heart.

He couldn't help but think that there were other such vicious people in the world besides himself. This Yingtian Prefecture truly lived up to its reputation as the capital; it broadened his horizons.

As he spoke, Xia Linglong had already pulled out a gleaming dagger, a treasure that could probably cut through iron like mud. Just a light touch on Lin Ping's face would surely make him question his existence.

Lin Ping shuddered in fright. He was a man who made a living based on his looks. If he lost his handsome appearance, how could he assemble a legion of beautiful women to protect him?

Of course, he only had eyes for Jiang Yunying, but she was so beautiful that he was intoxicated by her beauty. If he were disfigured, how could he be worthy of her?

Lin Ping's eyes turned cold. If he hadn't been speechless, he probably would have already... apologized!

That's right, it's an apology. A true man can bend and stretch; what's a little apology? After all, he's the prince, so apologizing to him isn't a loss.

"Tsk tsk, what a handsome face. No wonder my little sister fell for you. I don't even have the heart to do it." Xia Linglong said sarcastically as he slapped Lin Ping's face with a dagger, while putting Lin Ping on the ground so that he could leave behind his last words before being disfigured.

After his throat was released, Lin Ping coughed violently for a while, then put on a pitiful look and looked at Xia Linglong directly, waiting for the thick phlegm in his mouth to finish accumulating.

tui……

A glob of pale yellow phlegm landed on Xia Linglong's nose, instantly bursting into a phlegm flower that spread evenly across his face.

Xia Linglong was stunned by this sudden display of phlegm; his eyes, nine parts surprised and one part angry, were filled with surprise.

"You brat, I'm going to kill you!" Xia Linglong went berserk, thrusting his dagger straight at Lin Ping's brow, not caring whether Xia Linglong would be heartbroken and commit suicide for love.

Lin Ping truly deserves to be remembered in history for daring to insult the Crown Prince in public!

"Am I going to die?" Lin Ping's pupils contracted as he stared intently at the dagger that flashed with a cold light. Besides fear, he felt even more resentment.

His purpose in coming to Yingtian Prefecture was to rescue Jiang Yunying, but now, he has lost his life instead of being rescued, which is a huge loss.

"No!" Xia Yeran shouted, even trying to take the blow for Lin Ping.

He and Xia Linglong were brothers after all, so the other party wouldn't want his life. But Lin Ping was different. Not only was he of low status, but he had also seduced the princess. This crime alone was enough to kill him a hundred times over.

Lin Ping didn't even know who to appeal to for justice. Had he ever said he liked Xia Linglong? Or had he ever done anything to hurt her?

not at all!

From beginning to end, it was all Xia Linglong's wishful thinking, yet he was the one who took the blame. It was simply because of his lowly status, he had no human rights whatsoever.

In this feudal society, in this society ruled by men, those with money and power possessed everything and could stand at the top of the food chain, slaughtering at will.

In Xia Linglong's eyes, Xia Yeran was also a piece of trash. His words had no effect whatsoever and might even have provoked his anger.

Lin Ping is just a lowly commoner, so why should his sister love him so deeply, and why should his brother risk his life to shield him from harm?

Xia Linglong felt that Lin Ping had threatened his position, and that he had to die.

Whoosh!

In an instant, a cold wind swept by, and Xia Linglong's dagger was flung from his hand by the powerful force, piercing deep into the solid roof beam with a "whoosh." The force was immense.

Everyone waited in silence, and Xia Linglong even lost his balance and fell to the ground.

The newcomer was a veiled woman dressed in white, her beauty still evident even through the thin veil.

"Wife? Is that you?" This was Lin Ping's first reaction, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets.

With that figure and those martial arts skills, who else could it be but Jiang Yunying?

As he asked the question, Lin Ping held the other person's left hand.

My dear wife is the best in the world at martial arts. She can defeat an enemy with just one finger. What makes you so arrogant, Xia Linglong? You should kneel down and lick my boots.

Upon touching her, Lin Ping panicked. It was such a treat! Her skin was so smooth and fair; he could enjoy it for half a day with just one hand.

"Could it be that everyone in Lotus Palace bathes in milk? To make my wife's skin even smoother, I'm completely reluctant to let go!" Lin Ping leaned half his body against the woman in white, as happy as a little bird.

The woman in white glanced at him with disdain, but did not struggle excessively. Instead, her cold and beautiful eyes formed a murderous aura, and her thin lips did not move, but her killing intent was already revealed.
