He raised his head and smiled at the old city lord, "I want to marry her. As long as she marries me, I will have to call you grandfather. We're family, so there's nothing forbidden or improper between us."
"Want to marry A-Zhao?" Old City Lord Mo raised his head, his bound arms twitching slightly.
It was as if they had heard the biggest joke in the world.
But even though it was a joke, the idea of marrying Ah Zhao still enraged him.
They were ruthless; once they caught him, they immediately crippled his spiritual power, fearing he might suddenly retaliate.
However, fearing that he might die during torture, they also used elixirs to keep him alive.
Lin Wenhuo nodded, "Yes, I want her to marry me willingly. Then, you'll feel sorry for me, your grandson-in-law, and the Soul-Stabilizing Pearl won't go to anyone else. We should keep the good stuff in the family."
Old City Lord Mo couldn't muster any strength, so he held his breath and spat out a mouthful of blood at him.
"Pah, a toad trying to eat swan meat."
Lin Wenhuo was standing too close and couldn't dodge in time, so he was spat on directly in the face.
His face darkened instantly, and he raised the iron fan in his hand and slammed it down hard.
The old city lord's face was slapped to the side, a bloody wound revealing bone running from his ear to his nose.
If the wound goes any further, the nose might be cut off.
"If you want to marry A-Zhao, you won't even know how you died." Old City Lord Mo chuckled, his bright eyes looking at him as if he were a dead man.
Lin Wenhuo wiped his face clean with his sleeve, looked up at Old City Lord Mo, whose face was covered in blood, which even flowed into his tail.
He spoke in a somewhat weak tone.
"Lord Mo, you'd better be sensible. I might be able to treat Mo Yunzhao well after I marry her because you're so sensible. Otherwise, I'll just make her my concubine, or sleep with her a few times and then give her away to someone else."
Lin Wenhuo stared at him with a ferocious expression.
The old city lord chuckled coldly, "Then let's wait and see who knows what's good for them."
Lin Wenhuo thought he was being incredibly tactless, holding an iron fan and eager to make a move.
Seeing this, Lin Xiang quickly stepped forward and pulled him back, "Alright, don't be impulsive, you'll die if you keep going. We'll just wait for Mo Yunzhao to arrive."
Lin Wenhuo then put away his iron fan and snorted coldly.
"Stop the bleeding, keep him breathing, don't let him die, and keep a close eye on him."
After saying that, he turned and left.
"ah!"
No sooner had they left than the old city lord Mo's screams echoed from behind.
It was because the hemostatic powder contained pain-inducing powder.
Adding pain-inducing powder can increase a person's pain sensation by hundreds of times compared to normal.
Tsk, this is worse than death.
Moreover, given Old Master Mo's age and the pain he's in, he would immediately faint if any medicine were applied.
Even though he was a tough guy, he couldn't hold on and gritted his teeth without shouting.
But no matter how loudly he shouted, it was no use.
The dungeon is very soundproof; not a single sound can escape.
Lin Wenhuo and the others were relieved. Even if Mo Yunzhao came, they didn't know where the old city lord Mo was imprisoned in the dungeon. Even if they did know, they couldn't possibly rescue him.
They are very reassured.
They were out of the dungeon.
Lin Xiang looked at Lin Wenhuo and said, "Clear out the women from your main courtyard, have the servants decorate the bridal chamber, prepare some betrothal gifts, and send out the wedding invitations."
Lin Wenhuo held a handkerchief and wiped the bloodstains off the iron fan. "It's just a casual marriage to Mo Yunzhao. Why bother decorating the bridal chamber and sending out wedding invitations everywhere?"
