1253 Brainwashing Medicine (1/2)
”It's Hu Bawan! This is all Hu Bawan's doing!” Wei Shenjing dared not hide anything.
”Which Hu Bawan?” Chen Xiaobei asked.
Lin Chaoying explained. ”He was the one at the auction whom I fought with over the White Jade Ganoderma. The Faction Leader of Wrath Wave Faction, Hu Bawan!
Chen Xiaobei remembered him.
The auction had taken place during Chinese New Year. Hu Bawan had declared that he would kill whoever who dared take the White Jade Ganoderma from him! In the end, Lin Chaoying bought the Ganoderma and gifted it to Chen Xiaobei!
All these months, Hu Bawan did nothing and then all of a sudden, he attacked Lin Chaoyin in a bid to take her life!
This man was like a poisonous snake sneaking quietly in its hole. When it came out of hiding, it would put lives at risk!
”Why is Lin Xiang like this?” Chen Xiaobei questioned. ”Based on what I know, Hu Bawan is just a common cultivator! How is it that he was able to control Lin Xiang's consciousness?”
”He's using a spiritual Item!” Wei Shenjing stammered. ”Hu Bawan told me that the Spiritual Item's Special Ability is to brainwash somebody permanently. The victim will never be able to recover his or her consciousness ever again.”
”How could this be! Why must it be permanent? You sick bitch! Give me back my sister!”
Lin Nan exploded. He stormed towards Wei Shenjiing and began to pummel her uncontrollably.
Chen Xiaobei and Lin Chaoyin did nothing to stop him. Wei Shenjing was too afraid to fight back or employ her True Qi.
As Lin Nan continued to hit her, the bruises on her face darkened and swelled. But Lin Nan was not going to stop.
Permanently brainwashed? Never to recover her consciousness!
How was that any different to being dead?
All those years, for over ten years, Lin Nan had lived a carefree, nitwitted life. It was Chen Xiaobei who had pulled him out of a gambling pit and taught him to treasure his sister.
But right at this very moment, Lin Nan came to a realization like never before, that his sister was the most important person in his life!
Losing his sister was like the end of the world to him! The apocalypse!
”Alright! Enough! Lin Nan, stop it! I know a way to save your sister!” Chen Xiaobei said.
”What? Is that true? Brother-in-law, do you really know a way? If you heal my sister, I'm willing to be a slave for you!”
”What nonsense! We are a family! This is my duty!” Chen Xiaobei patted Lin Nan on the shoulder.
”That's… That's impossible,” Wei Shenjing said disbelievingly. ”Hu Bawan said so himself that no one, not even himself can rectify this type of brainwashing! That's because there's mental damage inflicted deep in Shimei Lin's subconscious. A Spirit Curse has been planted in her mind like the way a plant's roots attaches itself to the soil. It's already fixed in place. There's no way to pull it out.”
Smack!
Lin Chaoyin hit Wei Shenjing so hard across the face, she fell backwards onto the ground, throwing up blood.
”You traitor! You knew that the consequences were grievous yet you still chose to conspire with an outsider! Look at what you've done to Shimei Lin! There's no way that you can redeem yourself anymore!”
Lin Chaoyin was so outraged, she completely lost control, raising her hand again.
