She picked up the crystal energy gun and pressed it against Qi Chengkai's forehead, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.
Lin Ruo then smiled and said, "Actually, there's something else I want to ask you."
Seeing Lin Ruo's expression, Qi Chengkai subconsciously took a step back, "What..."
Lin Ruo moved swiftly and appeared beside Qi Chengkai. "Why is everyone in your family a superhuman? As far as I know, that energy rain only lasted for half an hour. Did your whole family go out in the rain during that time, or did you collect the rainwater?"
Qi Chengkai turned his head to the side and sneered, "You think I'd tell you?!"
Lin Ruo was not disappointed at all; on the contrary, her eyes lit up. She knew the reason behind Qi Chengkai's words.
“Normally, you wouldn’t say, but there are always exceptions,” Lin Ruo said, her finger flicking as her spatial domain suppressed Qi Chengkai, rendering him completely immobile. Then, her immense mental power enveloped Qi Chengkai’s crystal core, preventing him from using his powers again.
"You're also a psychic!" Qi Chengkai was shocked. This woman could control water flow just now, and now she can control mental power. What exactly is her ability? Could it be that, like Qi Chengtian, she has absorbed the abilities of others?!
Lin Ruo naturally did not answer Qi Chengkai's question. She simply used spatial energy to lift him into the air. The same kind of extremely fine ice needles appeared beside her again. Looking at Qi Chengkai's somewhat shocked eyes, she slowly said, "I used this method before to learn about the secret manual and videos from your family's ability users. Now it seems you want to try it too."
Qi Chengkai's pupils contracted. He knew the tolerance of the superhumans in his family to torture, but the fact that such tiny ice needles had made them spit out their mouths meant that the pain must have reached an extreme level. He couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Lin Ruo smiled again, "Don't worry, it only hurts a little."
With that, she waved her hand gently, and thousands of ice needles pierced into Qi Chengkai's body.
Qi Chengkai's eyes widened involuntarily. In that instant, he felt as if thousands of ants were crawling all over his body, making him incredibly itchy!
No wonder! No wonder those people with superpowers in the family couldn't handle it.
He wanted to scream, to frantically scratch his body, to tear his flesh apart, to pull those itchy bones out of his body! But he couldn't move an inch!
Lin Ruo stood beside Qi Chengkai, watching his face become more and more distorted, and his eyes slowly turned blood red. In just a few minutes, Qi Chengkai could no longer bear it. If it were a knife scraping his flesh, he wouldn't even flinch, but this was simply extreme torture!
He unconsciously gave Lin Ruo a pleading look.
With a thought, she loosened the spatial energy suppressing Qi Chengkai, but the ice needles in his body didn't stop. Qi Chengkai was able to speak again, "Please, I can't take it anymore! Please!"
"Speak?" A faint blue light flickered in Lin Ruo's palm, and the ice needles that were slowly moving through Qi Chengkai's body slowed down.
Qi Chengkai was panting heavily. He had just experienced what it felt like to wish for death but not be able to die; it was incredibly painful.
“There are a few ancestral precepts passed down in our family. Anyone who becomes the head of the family or the heir will know the contents of these ancestral precepts.”
"The content of this ancestral instruction is about the coming of the apocalypse and that energy rain."
"Because we knew in advance, we gathered all family members to go out in the rain when the energy rain came."
Lin Ru frowned. Her mental energy was constantly focused on Qi Chengkai, and none of his reactions escaped her notice. She could clearly sense that Qi Chengkai was not lying.
"Then why are your ancestral teachings about the apocalypse and energy rain? Besides these, is there any other information about the apocalypse, such as when this apocalypse will end?"
But Qi Chengkai laughed, "Do you think we would be in this situation if we knew what you were telling us?"
Lin Ruo frowned again, "Then where did you get these ancestral precepts from?"
Qi Chengkai's breathing finally calmed down. "I am not yet the head of the family, so I don't know that much detail. These are secrets that are not to be shared with outsiders. They are only conveyed by the previous head of the family when the successor takes over the position."
When the most crucial information was missing, Lin Ruo frowned even more. She could kill Qi Chengkai, but she couldn't touch the head of the Qi family for the time being.
She lightly stroked the box in her hand with her fingers, and when she looked up again, the spatial blade had already sliced across Qi Chengkai's neck. With a "swoosh" sound, the blade cut through flesh, and a line of blood appeared on Qi Chengkai's neck.
Lin Ruo withdrew the spatial energy around him, and with a "bang," Qi Chengkai's headless corpse fell to the ground, his head rolling once before stopping at Lin Ruo's feet.
Lin Ruo flicked her finger in the air, and a spatial blade once again sliced open Qi Chengkai's head. The water flow dug out the crystal core in Qi Chengkai's brain, washed it clean, and presented it to Lin Ruo.
Lin Ruo put all the items in front of her into her spatial storage, looked at the corpse on the ground that had been cut into several pieces, turned around and disappeared into the tent.
Qi Chengkai was right. From the moment she entered the tent, she had no intention of letting him go. She wanted to steal the manual and the video, and there were many ways to do so without him finding out, but the method she chose was outright robbery.
Since he likes her cousin so much, let them reunite in the afterlife, so they can meet each other's parents and stay together forever.
Lin Ruo used teleportation to leave the Qi family's cave. As soon as she left, the water membrane that had been set up outside Qi Chengkai's tent shattered.
The strong smell of blood in the tent immediately drew the attention of the other ability users nearby. They frowned slightly, wondering what the young master was doing in the tent, making such a strong smell of blood.
Finally, someone was still worried and walked to Qi Chengkai's tent, calling softly, "Young Master."
There was no reply from inside the tent. The man turned to look at the person next to him, and when he spoke again, his voice was filled with anxiety, "Young Master, are you alright?"
The tent remained silent. The man stepped forward and yanked open the tent flap, immediately seeing a body inside that had been cut into several pieces. "Ah! Help! The young master has been murdered!"
