Chapter 277: 277 It’s just the Lin Family, what’s there to be afraid of? [1 More]In the city of Yunjing, dragons hide among men, and there is no shortage of remarkable talents.
Furthermore, with the headquarters of Bureau 723 also in Yunjing, the Lin Family’s guards were extremely cautious when taking action, fearful of jeopardizing Lin Shiyuan’s mission.
However, the young man had not expected Lin Qin to come out of her room in the middle of the night for some air, which gave them an enormous advantage.
The young man controlled Lin Qin with one hand and waved the other at the accompanying guards.
He then leaped from the hotel’s public balcony with Lin Qin, and the other guards closely followed suit.
The intense sensation of weightlessness caused Lin Qin’s brain to start lacking oxygen, her face turned beet red, but because her mute acupoint was sealed, she couldn’t make a sound.
When her vision cleared again, she found herself in a dense forest on the outskirts.
"Whoosh!"
The young man’s finger touched Lin Qin again, releasing her mute acupoint, but he immediately sealed her other acupoints, rendering her immobile.
"Where is the Secluded Zither?" he asked coldly. "Speak, where is it?"
Such an important item, and Lin Qin hadn’t kept it with her in her room.
But as they had come to kidnap someone, they couldn’t cause too much commotion tonight and had to first get Lin Qin under control.
Although Lin Qin was frightened, with tears swirling in her eyes, she bit her teeth tightly and didn’t utter a word.
She was no fool; she could guess that those who came to capture her were from the Lin Family Main House.
It’s no wonder Lin Weilan refused to return to Yunjing after entering Jiangcheng.
If the Main House was filled with such ruthless people, could one expect a peaceful and stable life upon return?
"Will you speak or not?" The killing intent in the young man’s eyes moved. "If not, your life will end here."
His gaze carried much scorn.
At the same age of eighteen, Lin Shiyuan had already practiced the Heavenly Music Method to the Sixth Layer.
He had even defeated two elders from the Elders Council by himself.
Now at the age of twenty-five, Lin Shiyuan’s strength was inscrutable, causing even the Supreme Elder to hesitate to take action against him.
Branch family descendants remain branch family descendants, and even with a fine zither in their possession, they can only expect a mediocre life.
Lin Qin forced the tears back and replied with dignity, "Then kill me. If you do, you’ll never get your hands on the Secluded Zither."
Upon hearing this, one of the guards laughed furiously, "Do you think we wouldn’t dare?"
A daughter from a branch family; even if she learned the Heavenly Music Method, she was only at the rudimentary stage. What talent or ability did she have?
Lin Qin’s voice also grew cold: "Then kill me."
"You—!"
"Enough!" the young man rebuked. "If you kill her, are you not afraid the Secluded Zither will be destroyed too?"
Although the Secluded Zither didn’t require a chosen master like the three great ancient zithers, it was a famous instrument, and since it had been played by Lin Fanyin, it possessed its own spirituality.
If Lin Qin were killed, then the Secluded Zither might indeed self-destruct.
"Take her away first," the young man said. "As long as we have her, we’re not afraid of not getting the zither."
Threatening Lin Weilan with her most outstanding granddaughter, they were confident she would hand over the Secluded Zither and reveal all secrets!

At 6 o’clock in the morning, biological clocks roused many students from sleep.
"Qinqin? Qinqin, did you go out?" A girl rubbed her eyes, noticing the bed beside her was empty, "Qinqin?"
When she had looked around and also found Lin Qin’s cell phone left in the room, she realized something was wrong and immediately reported it to the teacher leading Jiangcheng No.1 Middle School’s team.
The teacher leading the team panicked.
The competition for Jiangcheng No.1 Middle School was starting in the afternoon, so where could Lin Qin have gone at such a time?
He did not consider the possibility of a kidnapping.
The hotel they were staying at was in the center of Yunjing, with top-notch security personnel, so how could a kidnapping have occurred?
"Wenli, have you been able to contact your cousin?" The leading teacher had no choice but to seek help from Lin Wenli. "Where would she go?"
Lin Wenli shook his head.
Though Lin Qin was a bit rebellious, she understood the weight of important matters, so something must have happened.
"Teacher, I’m going to look for my cousin," Lin Wenli turned and hurried away.
He gasped for breath as he stopped Ye Wanlan, "Sister, Qinqin is missing. We’ve
He stared at Yan Tingfeng, feeling that sense of familiarity growing stronger and stronger.
Where on earth... had he seen this man whose appearance was excessively splendid?
"It’s said that newborn babies haven’t yet been tainted by the murky air of the mortal world, so they can see things that adults cannot," Yan Tingfeng spoke as if in deep thought, "However, they lose that ability as they grow up."
"There is such a saying, but I had only seen a wisp of breeze just now," Ye Wanlan withdrew her gaze, "We must bring Qinqin back."
Missing the final round of the physics competition is a minor issue; Lin Qin’s life and safety are of major concern.
She would not allow anyone to harm her relatives.
Yan Tingfeng said in a very soft voice, "I’ll go, Xiao Wan can rest easy."
The Lin Family, what is there to fear?
"That’s not possible," Ye Wanlan rejected, "Last time you forcibly used your inner strength during a recurrence of your illness, if you do it again this time, I think you really don’t care about your life."
Bing He scratched his head, "Otherwise, shall we inform the Xiang Family? Young Master Shaoyu hasn’t been busy with anything lately."
Ye Wanlan shook her head.
Even though Xiang Shaoyu now has considerable power, after all, he is not the head of the family and also has limitations.
She walked to the window and said to Xie Linyuan, "There’s another thing, I fear Lin Shiyuan already has a fifty percent certainty that the Primordial Lost Sound Zither is in my hands."
She had heard Xiang Shaoyu, Rong Yu, including Rong Qi mention Lin Shiyuan, saying how astute and almost demonically smart Lin Shiyuan was, once finding the hiding place of a thief who infiltrated the Lin Family based on just a few clues.
Often when others were still trapped in cognitive loops and logical fallacies, Lin Shiyuan had already found the correct answer.
Since she was already targeted by Lin Shiyuan last time, this time, Lin Shiyuan would definitely be able to deduce that the Primordial Lost Sound Zither was with her, based on the fact that the Secluded Zither was in Lin Qin’s hands.
Xie Linyuan frowned slightly, "Is that all?"
"That’s all," Ye Wanlan smiled faintly, "No wonder she is hailed as the strongest genius after Fanyin."
"But Ah Yin would never be so ruthlessly decisive," Xie Linyuan said coldly, "Thus, she is not worthy to inherit the Heavenly Sound Sect."
His Ah Yin was always kind, choosing to hurt herself rather than allowing others to be harmed.
"Little Junior Sister, don’t do anything about this," Xie Linyuan’s fingers slowly clenched, "I’ll go."
Ye Wanlan looked up, "Big Senior Brother?"
"I will take care of bringing your cousin out of the Lin Family, and teach them a lesson," Xie Linyuan said, "That way, you don’t have to reveal your trump card, and the Lin Family won’t prematurely take action against you."
Three hundred years ago, he failed to save Lin Fanyin.
Three hundred years later, could he not save a descendant of Lin Fanyin?
