Chapter 310 Mutilation
“Why? Why not be a proper person and choose to be a dog?”
Hu Siniang’s eyes were bloodshot. The spiritual damage was far greater than the physical. She couldn’t understand why Hu Yulin had betrayed her.
Among dozens of siblings, Hu Yulin was the one she treated best. Yet, the best among them had betrayed her.
Hu Yulin chuckled upon hearing this, “A dog? Aren't we foxes? Is there a difference?”
“Besides, being a dog for you or for someone else is the same. Since it’s all about being a dog, I’ll naturally go with whoever offers more benefits!”
However, upon hearing his words, Hu Siniang did not lash out at him. Instead, she stared at Hu Yulin, her gaze unwavering.
Hu Yulin felt a bit uncomfortable under her gaze and subtly turned his head away.
Seeing this, Hu Siniang let out a low, chilling laugh.
“You are simply delusional,” she suddenly said for no apparent reason.
Hu Yulin’s head snapped back, looking at Hu Siniang with surprise.
As if sensing Hu Yulin’s thoughts, Hu Siniang said with a sinister smile, “I am your sister. I understand you.”
Hu Yulin’s expression had returned to normal. He scoffed, “If you understood me, you wouldn’t be hanging here now.”
As soon as these words were spoken, ferocity and anger reappeared on Hu Siniang’s face.
Her whole body suddenly floated into the air, and she kicked Hu Yulin in the chest.
Hu Yulin neither dodged nor evaded, directly taking Hu Siniang’s kick to the chest.
When Hu Siniang’s body, restrained by chains, fell back down, Hu Yulin lightly dusted off his chest and said casually, “Sister, in your next life, do not be a fox clan.”
His words were delivered with genuine emotion, but then, with a wave of his hand, the two chains holding Hu Siniang detached from the wall. Hu Siniang plummeted to the ground, collapsing and completely still, as if that kick had used up all her strength. Her human form seemed to be failing, her entire being growing ethereal and translucent, with the phantom image of a giant fox faintly emerging.
But Hu Yulin showed no mercy. He reached out and grabbed the two chains, dragging Hu Siniang towards the basement. A long bloodstain was etched onto the ground behind him.
As Hu Yulin dragged Hu Siniang into the office, Alex, who had produced a sharp dagger from somewhere, was meticulously trimming his nails.
Seeing Hu Yulin return and noticing Hu Siniang being dragged behind him, Alex smiled.
“Hu, I truly admire you for being able to do this to your own sister. I can’t. Look at my brother, he’s already been crippled like this, and I still need to find a way to save him.”
Alex said this, but as his gaze swept over the "mummy" opposite him, his eyes revealed undisguised disgust.
“She’s not my real sister,” Hu Yulin quipped softly.
However, Alex clearly paid no mind, even letting out a dismissive laugh.
Then he walked over, took the chains from Hu Yulin, and lifted Hu Siniang. He used the dagger in his hand to push aside Hu Siniang’s long hair, revealing her pale cheek.
Fox clan members were inherently beautiful, and Hu Siniang was no exception. Not only was her appearance first-rate, but she also possessed a charming allure that could make any man’s heart flutter at a single glance.
Even with her pale complexion and closed eyes, she could evoke pity.
She might not have been a beauty to topple nations, but she was certainly a captivating enchantress. Otherwise, Alex’s younger brother wouldn’t have been lured all the way from afar to Great Xia.
“Truly beautiful,” Alex couldn’t help but exclaim.
Then, he used the dagger to cut a long gash across Hu Siniang’s cheek, from ear to mouth, causing blood to well up.
At that moment, Hu Siniang’s eyes suddenly snapped open, revealing their crimson depths. She opened her mouth and spat out a cloud of colorful smoke, a sweet, cloying fragrance instantly filling the room.
Alex, caught off guard, inhaled a wisp of the smoke. He immediately felt a wave of dizziness, countless malicious thoughts surged within him, and his consciousness began to blur.
Alex instinctively released his grip. At this moment, the smoke spread throughout the entire office. Hu Siniang, who had fallen to the ground, used the obscuring smoke to prepare for her escape. Just then, Hu Yulin suddenly inhaled sharply, drawing all the smoke into his mouth.
Alex, acting with extreme decisiveness, plunged the dagger directly into his own temple. Not content with that, he even twisted it a couple of times before yanking the dagger out. Blood mixed with brain matter gushed out in a gruesome, savage display.
Alex’s pupils instantly dimmed, his consciousness vanishing. This signified his death. His body went limp, about to topple backward, but at that very instant, his eyes regained their light, and he gasped for air. The wound on his temple healed rapidly.
His first reaction upon regaining consciousness was to kick Hu Siniang in front of him.
Hu Siniang, already injured and delayed by Hu Yulin’s disruption of her technique, losing her chance to escape, was struck in the chest by the kick. She slammed into the wall behind her. The kick was incredibly powerful; blood splattered against the wall behind her back, then slowly dripped down, creating a painting that surprisingly held a sense of tragic beauty.
In that brief moment, Alex had fully recovered. He strode forward and directly hauled Hu Siniang up.
Hu Siniang had completely lost consciousness by now.
Alex paid no heed. He intended to drain her blood. He glanced at the "mummy" seated on the chair and was startled.
Because the "mummy" had a flushed face, eyes wide open, but unfocused, and had completely stopped breathing.
“Useless trash,” Alex cursed with a grim expression.
Then he turned his furious gaze towards Hu Yulin, who stood beside him, completely unharmed.
Hu Yulin quickly raised his hands, indicating he had nothing to do with it.
Alex’s expression shifted, but he eventually softened. Although he desperately wanted to kill Hu Yulin, he was a crucial pawn for them now. If he killed Hu Yulin and disrupted his uncle’s plan, he would also face severe consequences.
However, his brother was dead, and he had no intention of letting Hu Siniang off the hook. He hoisted her up again, preparing to use the dagger to drain her blood. Just then, his ears twitched, and a serious expression crossed his face. “Someone’s here.”
Hu Yulin sniffed the air and then showed a hint of confusion.
“Why is Nineteenth Sister back? Where is Connors? Why did she return? Is it to save Fourth Sister?”
“It’s your Nineteenth Sister,” Alex’s eyes gleamed with desire.
“Her scent is very special. I haven’t smelled such a uniquely fragrant aroma in a long time. Her heart must be very pure, and her blood must be fragrant.” Alex’s long tongue flicked out, licking his lips.
Hu Yulin frowned slightly, a sense of unease settling in his heart.
At that moment, the door exploded open, and three women appeared before them.
“Three of them?”
Alex and Hu Yulin’s faces drastically changed.
