In the dimly lit room, Liao Nings eyes widened as she beheld a sight of horror. Chained in a corner was a white wolf cub, tubes attached to its body, with red liquid flowing out.
âLiao Nai! Liao Nailâ Liao Ning exclaimed, her voice filled with excitement.
Hearing Liao Ningâs voice, the wolf cub weakly lifted its head, lacking the strength to stand.
Sami arched an eyebrow and glanced over her shoulder, expressing disdain. âOh? He still has some strength left? It appears the anesthesia isnât sufficient.
But we canât administer too much, or the blood quality will be compromised.â
âWhat do you want?â Liao Ning attempted to maintain control over her voice, but she couldnât help but notice its trembling, tinged with fear.
Indeed, she was afraid. Liao Naiâs condition remained uncertain, his evil value had escalated, and he was being drained of his blood. Liao Ning wondered how much longer he could endure.
âWhat do I want? I want to live a life of luxury, but youâve ruined everything!
Curse you, Liao Ning!â
Samiâs face turned pallid, her eyes bloodshot. She seethed with anger, as if she could burst out of the camera and tear Liao Ning apart.
However, her expression quickly transformed into one of sorrow. âMy mother is ill, and she requires blood from the Liao Family to heal. But she was captured and fell into a coma. She has no connection to the Sam Family. She is innocent.â
Liao Ning cautiously inquired, âLiao Xi?â
âYou know everything!â Samiâs countenance reverted to fury. âIf you wish for your nephew to survive, save my mother and contact me. You have three days, or else youâll be collecting his lifeless body!â
Upon hearing Samiâs threat, Liao Nai shouted at the camera, âNo, no, Auntie, donât come!â
Sami pivoted and delivered a series of kicks until Liao Nai ceased moving.
âHe remains alive for now because he still possesses value, but I cannot guarantee his fate afterward,â Sami panted heavily. âTime is limited. Begin the countdown now.â
Following the conclusion of the video, Liao Ning received a notification from the system.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for initiating a new mission: Rescue the Rebellion. Mission Description: Save Rebellion No. 1 and reduce their evil value to below 20%. Mission Reward: 2,000 system points and 20,000 interstellar space coins.]

Additional reward for the hidden mission: Unlocking Liao Ningâs background.]
Liao Ning was left speechless, overcome by shock. The system had assigned her two missions, both intricately connected to the Liao Family.
The sight of the tubes connected to Liao Naiâs body haunted her thoughts. Could it be that the blood of the Liao Family possessed some unique properties?
However, time was slipping away, leaving her with little room for pondering the reasons behind Samiâs actions. Her priority was to save her mother and then to find a way to substitute Liao Nai.
Just as she contemplated how to leave the room, the door swung open, and Zhou Ling entered.
Having discovered the video of Sami abducting Liao Nai but unable to locate
them, Zhou Ling shared the information. Samiâs early-morning kidnapping had allowed her to evade capture when the Sam Family was raided.
Liao Ning recounted her conversation with Sami to Zhou Ling, and then she inquired, âWhere is Samiâs mother?â
With a grave expression, Zhou Ling replied, âThe Sam Family has been apprehended. Earl Samâs wife is currently comatose and being held in the heavily guarded basement cell. Sneaking in will be incredibly challenging.â
Liao Ning contemplated for a moment before asking, âCan your necklace alter my appearance as well?â
âI am uncertain if it will work,â Zhou Ling shook his head. âMoreover, you canât be left alone in the cell with an unconscious woman, can you?â
Liao Ning realized that this plan was not feasible. Even if they managed to infiltrate the cell, neither she nor Zhou Ling would be capable of removing the unconscious Liao Xi.
In a sudden realization, Liao Ning remembered Samiâs words about Liao Xi being in a coma, requiring the bloodline of the Liao Family to save her.
Considering the extraction of Liao Naiâs blood, Liao Ning scrutinized her own arms and murmured softly, âWhat if Liao Xi awakens?â
