《System of Gods and Devils》Chapter 14: Gong Lingxin
Advertisement
In a dark bedroom, a girl can be seen sitting with her hands tied to the bed. The girl was dressed in all white. Her hair danced along with the breeze from the window. Her facial features were so perfect that she would definitely be considered a Heaven toppling beauty when she grew older. And her eyes didn't show any fear despite being tied to the bed. Her blue eyes seemed searching for a way to escape.
While she was searching for a way to escape the door suddenly opened. An arrogant looking young man entered the room. His face was full of pimples. After he enters the room, he saw her youthful figure with lust filled eyes and said "You bitch. You should stop searching for an escape. No one would help you. If you promise to become my plaything, I'll help you escape. That scum always enjoys women but not allows me to do so. He says I should consider you as a sister and do you think just because of his protection you will be safe here. Dream On. Just accept being my plaything, and I will help you escape, and your mom doesn't have to marry my ugly Dad. What do you say? Don't you want to protect your mom?" said the guy.
Looking at this ugly face, she gritted her teeth. She did want to save her mother, but at the same time, she can't help but disgust at his ugly face. Who In the right mind would even marry a guy like him? She thought of seducing him and escape by beating him to a pulp. But she feared her mother and her brother would be implicated for her crime, and so she gritted her teeth not knowing what to do? Even she considers herself strong-willed, but at the situation, her eyes can't help but tear and her heart wanting herself to depend on someone who protects her from this situation.
Looking at her cry, the guy laughed maniacally and said: " A girl like you would only cry when they accept something they don't like." as he brought his both hands with a lustful eye near the crying girl to cope a feel.

When she was feeling desperate, she heard two low thuds. She looked down to find the hands of the guy who tried to assault her been separated from his body. She then looked at his ugly face which was filled with shock.
"Ahhhhh........" suddenly a loud sound assaulted everyone's ears on the mansion.
Hearing his son's shriek his father ran to their bedroom to find his son unconscious in a pool of blood with his hand separated from his body.
Looking at his son like this his heart filled with pain. Even though he never liked him that much, he is still his own flesh and blood. Looking at him lying in a pool of blood his heart filled with anger.
He then looked at the girl he kidnapped who still seemed tied to the bed, and she seemed to be looking at the direction of the window with shock and confusion filled eyes.
He also looked at the direction to find a youth been sitting leisurely on the window and watching her with a smile on his face. The teen had a long black hair with black eyebrows and pitch-black eyes within whites looking devilish handsome and captivating but his eyes seemed to have a peculiar feeling like one eye is Good and other is Evil.
He felt a dangerous sensation emanating from the youth, but his anger blinded him from the sensation. He roared "Who are you? Why did you kill my son?"
He looked never even looked at him and seemed only concentrating on the young girl. The girl also seemed to be captivated by his black eyes. Looking at both of them treating him like air, his anger exploded. He removed the Saber from his sheath, and with the Full Initial Foundation Stage Qi exploding from his body he swung at the youth.
The Youth looked at the exploding Qi towards him, and he felt it like an ant trying to bite an elephant. He disdained even to take his sword, and he just swung his arms. The power from his hands threw the middle-aged man with full force breaking two walls and laying within the debris lifeless. He didn’t even got the chance to retaliate or beg in front of the power from the youth. He died before even he can regret.

The youth then came before the girl and asked “Hello. I'm Roger Dream. Are you little Bo's sister?"
Looking at the youth mentioning her little brother's name, she felt less vigilant and relaxed. She then nodded "Yes. He's my little brother. And I'm Gong Lingxin. Thank you for saving me" she said.
"No need for thanks. I promised your mother to save you. Let's get back to your mother. She might be worried." said Roger Dream as he came near her to untie. As his hands touched hers while helping her untie, she blushed. She had a strange feeling of gratitude and nervousness looking at him. She can't blame herself as every female has a soft spot to whoever saves them from a desperate situation.
And then a guy looking like a butler entered with guards to the room. Roger Dream looked at them and felt irritated and thought of finishing them. When he was going to swing his arms, Lingxin came before him and said "Please don't hurt him, he was the one who helped me from the Lord's son from putting his hands on me. He's not a bad guy."
After listening to her, he stopped. The butler who came with guards looked at their Lord who was laying lifelessly in the rubbles. The expression of the butler was of pity, and for the guards, some looked nervous, and some looked happy, and there were even some of them crying with gratitude. Roger Dream looking at the guards who were happy and some were with tears like they were sending their daughters to their husbands. It was a comical scene. At first, he thought the guards might try to take revenge, but that's not the case. Looking at them for the first time in his life he felt fulfillment.
After having a word with the butler, he found out some of the guard's wives been raped by the lord's ugly son, and they've been eager to take revenge but due to his powerful father, they can't even open their mouths. Looking at son and father pair lying lifeless they felt elated and thanked heavens for justice.
The Guards then took Roger Dream and Lingxin through a carriage like treating a VIP. Then dropped them off and returned to mansions. After town people knowing the situation that a powerful cultivator has killed the town lord due to him kidnapping Lingxin, they felt shocked and happy. Some of them felt like this was their chance to become the next Town Lord as hidden wars were taking place in the town for the seat of lordship. But Roger Dream cared none for that he just brought her home.
After her Lingxin's mother watched them return via carriage, she cried of relief. Then both of them hugged each other and cried for a while. Little Bo'er also hugged them from the back and cried because he saw them crying. It was a warm scene for Roger Dream as he was reminiscing about the past about his family.
After 5 minutes of crying, the duo then thanked him "Thank you for saving my her. We'll never forget your kindness."
"No. It's my pleasure. I also owed you for your food. By the way, I also earned something from the trip. So no worries." said Roger Dream with a smile. His last sentence made them confuse, but they never put much thought into it and then invited him inside.
