Shocking! The female protagonist unlocked her powers by killing people!

"As for replacing her and Zhuyu," Lin Tianliang looked at Lin Chengze, "you two grew up with me and your mother since you were little, enjoying everything. Zhuyu was born without a mother. If I don't replace her, she won't even have a father. As for your sister, your nanny, out of consideration for your mother's kindness, found a good family to raise her. She hasn't suffered at all. What's there to feel wronged about?"

"As soon as she returned, Zhuyu lost her status as the eldest daughter of the Lin family. As the eldest daughter of the Lin family, shouldn't she do something for the Lin family?" Lin Tianliang looked at Lin Chengze: "Don't you know why you're preventing Zhuyu from marrying the Third Prince?"

"I did all this for the Lin family. Only when the Lin family is doing well can you all be doing well. But what about her?" Lin Tianliang said sternly, "As the eldest daughter of the Lin family, she is unwilling to contribute to the Lin family. She often makes a fool of herself because of etiquette. The Third Prince said that she has no manners and told her to learn the rules properly. What's wrong with that?"

"She doesn't understand our good intentions at all. Every day she either cries and makes a scene or threatens to die. If she had really died, that would have been fine, but she didn't die. What did she do after her suicide attempt failed?"

"She laid a hand on me, her father, and on your mother. Now she's killed Yu'er. She's clearly arrogant and ruthless, yet you're blaming me. Lin Chengze, have all the years of raising you been for nothing?"

"That's not it! That's not how it is at all!"

In the past, Lin Chengze wouldn't have thought about these things, but now that he understands, he won't be affected by them anymore: "You say that as the eldest daughter of the Lin family, she is unwilling to contribute to the Lin family, but has she ever enjoyed any of the treatment that a young lady of the Lin family should have?"

"If she had enjoyed it, it would be her duty to contribute to the Lin family, but she didn't. You brought her back and now you want her to marry someone, give her an identity, and marry her off to someone who isn't a good match. What's wrong with her not wanting to?"

"Lin Zhuyu is the one who enjoys the treatment of a legitimate daughter, so why is she unwilling to marry?" Lin Chengze looked at Lin Zhuyu: "Does she want her to marry the Crown Prince and gain greater benefits?"

"Why should someone born to a concubine marry the Crown Prince?" Lin Chengze looked at the two of them, laughing and crying at the same time. "Wait, how could I forget? If Ling Yi hadn't exposed this matter, we wouldn't have known that Lin Zhuyu was your child with a concubine, and the Crown Prince probably wouldn't have known either. After all, it happened so long ago. If no one bothered to investigate, who would know?"

"If Ling Yi hadn't exposed this matter, we wouldn't know, the Crown Prince wouldn't know, what kind of identity Father plans to arrange for her so that she can marry the Crown Prince?"

“Father said that if the Lin family prospers, we can prosper even more, and that’s true. But those who enjoy it have to pay the price, and Ling Yi has never enjoyed it!” Lin Chengze said, “She hasn’t enjoyed it, but she can choose not to!”

"presumptuous!"

Lin Tianliang angrily said, "I am her father. Your mother and I gave her this life, so she should listen to your mother and me. What's wrong with that?"

Lin Chengze looked at Lin Tianliang and shook his head repeatedly: "Our family can be very happy. If you didn't have a mistress, we would be very happy, and none of this would have happened!"

“Since ancient times, men have had three wives and four concubines. I respect your mother and have never taken a concubine. My affair with Yunniang was an accident. Yunniang is pregnant with my child. How could I not care?” Lin Tianliang took advantage of the fact that the person was dead and there was no way to verify the story, and cleared himself of any wrongdoing: “At that time, I couldn’t bear to see your mother sad, so I arranged for her to stay outside.”

"Was it really an accident?" Lin Chengze looked at Lin Tianliang: "Did Father accidentally end up in that kind of place?"

"Or should we say that someone else invited you and you couldn't refuse?"

"After this happened, did Father really not bring the person back because he didn't want to hurt Mother, or because he didn't want this incident to ruin your reputation in the business world?" Lin Chengze roared. "Or were you afraid of being blamed by your maternal grandparents?"

"Lin Chengze, how dare you!"

Lin Tianliang was furious that his son had torn away his fig leaf, but because his hands were crippled, he couldn't even slap the man. All he could do was yell, "Get out!"

"Get out of here!"

Lin Chengze took a deep breath: "I will leave, but not now. What I need to do now is to make arrangements for my fourth brother's funeral."

When Lin Chengyu was mentioned, Lin Chengze temporarily suppressed his anger: "Have the people in the manor make preparations."

Lin Chengze responded coldly, then looked at Lin Tianliang and said, "Father, you're right. You're not good to Ling Yi, but you're not bad to us. That's why I'm saying all this directly. I hope you know that we were all wrong. It's not too late to apologize to Ling Yi. Otherwise, we'll be the ones who die next."

Lin Tianliang sneered, completely ignoring what Lin Chengze said. Lin Chengze, seeing his father's expression, understood and could only say, "Father, Ling Yi is a cultivator."

Lin Chengze said, "Father, didn't you think about that?"

“I am a level two spiritual master, my fourth brother is a level one spiritual master, and you are a level three spiritual master, but neither you nor I are a match for Ling Yi. Haven’t you ever thought about why?”

Lin Tianliang's expression changed upon hearing this, and he said in a deep voice, "She didn't use any spiritual power when she made her move yesterday..."

Lin Chengze said, "But she used it to kill Chengyu today, but not yesterday, which only shows that she can deal with us without using spiritual power."

"Father, apologize to Lingyi, otherwise none of us will escape."

"Absolutely impossible!" Lin Tianliang said sternly, "So what if she's a cultivator?"

"Is she the only cultivator in our family?" Lin Tianliang's gaze darkened. "No matter what, can she be more powerful than your eldest brother?"

"I will contact your older brother and ask him to come back."

Lin Chengze asked incredulously, "You want my elder brother to deal with Ling Yi?"

"Father, are you crazy? Ling Yi is our own sister!"

"Yu'er is still her own brother, has she let Yu'er go?"

"We were the ones who wronged her first!" Lin Chengze said. "Precisely because our fourth brother is gone, we should turn back in time, instead of going further and further astray!"

"Lin Chengze, listen carefully. The Lin family will never bow down to Ling Yi." Lin Tianliang looked at Lin Chengze coldly: "Even if Chengtian is not allowed to deal with Ling Yi, there are others."

“If you think you’re wrong, if you want to admit it, that’s your business. Don’t interfere with my plans.” After saying that, Lin Tianliang looked at Lin Chengyu’s corpse: “Now take your brother out.”

"Instead of wasting your time talking nonsense with me, why don't you go see your mother and see if she will forgive Ling Yi?"

Lin Chengze looked at Lin Tianliang and said with a bitter smile, "Father, if you do this, the Lin family will be completely wiped out."

Lin Tianliang roared, "Get out!"

Lin Chengze didn't say anything more, and carried Lin Chengyu's body out of the room.

That noon, white silk was hung up at the Lin residence.

Upon receiving the news, Lin Chengtian, who was at the National Capital Academy, returned to the Lin family immediately.
