Chapter 241: Soul Searching Secret Technique

The four women exchanged worried glances, reading the panic in each other's eyes. Without a word, they attempted to flee.

If they stayed any longer, Zhao Ling would arrive and deal with them harshly.

However, the hummingbird prop on Ah Yin's shoulder spoke in Zhao Ling's voice:

"Don't act rashly. There are people watching you at the courtyard gate. I don't know who they are."

The women's faces fell. People are watching us? Who sent them?

It was a sobering reminder of their carelessness. Given their strength, they should have noticed the lurking presence earlier.

Deciding to retreat into the house, they reasoned that once inside, Ah Yin could use her Blue Silver Emperor ability to extend her vision through the nearby Blue Silver Grass. This would help them assess the strength and intent of the individuals outside.

But just as Ah Yin prepared to connect with the grass, the hummingbird spoke again:

"Yin'er, no need. I'm already at the gate. I'll handle them."

"Already here?!"

The four women exchanged despairing looks. Their plans of escape were dashed. Resigned, they waited for their husband's inevitable arrival.

At the main gate outside Liu Erlong's courtyard, a man dressed as a beggar crouched with a broken bowl in his hand. Suddenly, a shadow loomed over him.

Looking up, he saw Zhao Ling standing before him. His face paled with fear, but before he could speak, Zhao Ling grabbed him by the neck and hoisted him into the air.

"Who are you?" Zhao Ling demanded coldly. "Why are you spying on my wives?"

Hearing the commotion, several others lurking near the courtyard walls rushed over to investigate. But upon seeing Zhao Ling strangling their companion, they panicked and turned to flee.

Unbeknownst to them, Zhao Ling had already set up a barrier of heaven and earth energy covering a 300-meter radius around the courtyard. No one could enter or leave without his consent.

Zhao Ling tightened his grip on the beggar's neck and spoke in an icy tone:

"Tell me, who sent you? If you don't talk, I'll crush you to death. Or I can use my soul-searching technique to extract your memories. But fair warning—using it will leave you a mindless idiot. The choice is yours."

The beggar sneered inwardly, refusing to believe such a technique existed. To him, Zhao Ling's threats were mere bluffs. At worst, he'd die—but his family would be cared for by their organization.

Seeing the man's defiance, Zhao Ling wasted no time. Pressing his palm to the beggar's head, he activated the soul-searching technique.

Within half a minute, the man's body went limp, his eyes dull and lifeless.

Zhao Ling smirked. "So, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family sent you. How pathetic. They plan to investigate the women around me to target my family? Ridiculous."

He paused, his smirk widening. "And they don't even know Long'er's identity. If they realized she's the daughter of their second-in-command, it would throw their entire family into chaos."

Fortunately, the spies hadn't acted rashly. They wanted to confirm the true owner of the courtyard before reporting back. Otherwise, his wives might have been captured by now, creating a far more dangerous situation.

Though Ah Yin and Ah Rou had reached the Soul Saint level, their soul beast origins would be difficult for even Yu Yuanzhen to detect. Xiao Wu, however, had not yet reached that level, making her identity easier to discern.

If Yu Yuanzhen realized that A Rou and Xiao Wu were mother and daughter, he would undoubtedly deduce that A Rou was also a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

Zhao Ling's gaze darkened. With a swift motion, he snapped the neck of the now-idiotic beggar and let his body drop to the ground.

Meanwhile, the remaining spies were horrified to find themselves trapped. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't escape the 300-meter barrier.

One moment, they thought they were running away; the next, they found themselves circling back to the courtyard wall.

One spy felt a sudden force strike his face. His head spun violently on his neck before darkness claimed him.

Another spy's head was crushed into his chest by an invisible force, his body crumpling lifelessly to the ground.

The last remaining spy, trembling with fear, knelt and begged for mercy. But Zhao Ling was unforgiving. With a mere wave of his hand, the man's head exploded.

Having dealt with the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family's spies, Zhao Ling turned his focus back to his wives.

He wouldn't let the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family go unpunished, but for now, his priority was bringing the women back home. They had spent enough time running and hiding.

Once they were safely back, he would ensure the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family learned a lesson they wouldn't forget.

Last time, the havoc caused by the hummingbird props hadn't deterred them. This time, Zhao Ling resolved to deliver a far harsher punishment.
