Chapter 1274 Once Again, He Escaped Death

"Alright, I'll go back and make some preparations. We can't do this alone."

Samuel knew that Nicole was eager to find her second uncle, but what just happened should have
alerted Aaron. He didn't know if he would make another move immediately.

Now it depended on who reacted faster.

Nicole nodded.

After returning, Samuel brought a small group of people and Nicole up the mountain overnight.

The back mountain was very big, and it was connected to the surrounding mountains. Nicole and
Samuel did not know where her second uncle was, so they could only search the mountains one by
one.

As soon as Jarrod went back, someone whipped towards him. He didn't even dodge and directly took
the whipping.

The whip was barbed.

After Jarrod was whipped, his skin and flesh were immediately torn apart. The smell of blood filled the
room, but he didn't even blink.

"Bastard! You've forgotten who raised you, haven't you?"

The lights in the room immediately lit up.

There was a man in his fifties sitting in the middle of the house, and there was a woman sitting beside
him. The woman looked at Jarrod with a seductive expression. She smiled and stroked Aaron's chest.



She smiled and said, "Aaron, why are you so angry? No matter what, Jarrod and he are brothers. It
seems impossible for him not to contact Samuel."

"Shut up! You have no right to speak here!"

Jarrod's gaze was like sharp swords, flying towards the woman. Those cold eyes scared her.

The woman involuntarily trembled. Then, she thought of Aaron beside her and hurriedly said in
grievance, "Aaron, look at your son. What is his attitude towards me?"

"Alright, shut up. I'm talking to my son. Don't interrupt."

Aaron frowned slightly and was somewhat dissatisfied with the woman's noisy voice.

This time, the woman did not dare to speak at all.

Jarrod looked at Aaron. He was still bleeding, but as if it didn't hurt at all, he said coldly, "Father, can
you let him go? He doesn't know anything now."

"He doesn't know? Why did he come to the Harper Town? Do you really think he brought his wife and
children here for a trip? Jarrod, don't forget whose son you are! Go kneel in the ancestral hall. You are
not allowed to treat your wound, eat, or drink water without my permission. Think about what you
should and shouldn't do. You may think that I won't kill you because you're my son. But if you ruin my
plan like this again, I don't mind trapping you at the foot of the mountain so that you'll never see the
sunshine again."

Aaron's expression was extremely vicious, as if the person in front of him wasn't his son, but a stranger.

Jarrod's heart was in pain. He thought of Vincent who always smiled heartlessly but had his own
beliefs.



He still remembered how happy and warm Vincent was when he talked about Samuel. He had never
seen such warmth on his father's face.

If he hadn't done the paternity test behind Aaron's back, he would have doubted whether he was
Aaron's biological son.

Ever since he was young, Aaron had treated him very harshly, so harsh that a few times, he almost
couldn't hold on.

At that time, he wanted to have a mother by his side. He would be satisfied even if it was just a hug, but
he couldn't have that. He envied that Samuel could grow up with Vincent. Even if there was any pain,
they would share it with each other. But Jarrod had always been alone.

Jarrod turned around coldly and went straight to the ancestral hall without saying anything.

The ancestral hall here was somewhat different. There was only one person's tablet, and that was
Alice's.

Looking at his mother's tablet, Jarrod suddenly felt sad.

He knelt on the ground. The wounds on his body were burning with pain, and fresh blood was also
flowing. However, Aaron seemed to not see, and Jarrod did not care.

He only looked at the tablet, his eyes slightly moist.

"Mom, Dad said that you wanted me to grow up healthy when you gave birth to me, but now that you're
gone, Dad seems to have changed. These years, he has become even more indulgent. There were
different women around him, and he seemed to have forgotten about you, but every time I do
something wrong, he still punishes me to kneel in front of you. Isn't that ridiculous?"

Jarrod said with mockery, and the door suddenly opened.



He was slightly stunned when he saw Aaron walk in with a cold expression.

"Are you complaining to your mother again? Did you tell her that I punished you?"

"No."

Jarrod's back was very straight, as if this was the only way to show his stubbornness.

Aaron glanced at Alice's tablet and suddenly took out a small porcelain bottle.

When Jarrod saw the white porcelain bottle, his expression changed.

His hands were tightly clenched together, and there was a trace of fear in his eyes, but he didn't say
anything.

Aaron acted as if he hadn't seen Jarrod's reaction. He touched the porcelain bottle and whispered, "Do
you know what the job of the people in your mother's town was? They were bug Raisers. They had
learned how to practice and raise bugs since generations before. Your mother was an expert, but why
did she give birth to such a trash like you? You share the blood of the Harper family, yet you are so
dumb with bugs. I wished you could do better, but you've always disappointed me. Jarrod, how can you
do this to your dead mother?"

Jarrod didn't say a word as he stared straight at her mother's tablet.

Aaron was a little upset with his attitude.

"What is your attitude? I'm talking to you, but you ignored me, right? Do you think you are strong
enough to be against me? Do you think those lame killers you trained can take me down? Jarrod, I
gave you your life. You must do whatever I want you to do. How dare you to ruin my plan today. You
like to get in touch with Samuel, don't you? Alright, then remember this day forever! I want to see if
Samuel will come to save you today. "



After Aaron finished speaking, he directly opened the porcelain bottle, and a small black bug suddenly
crawled out. It smelt the blood and instantly crawled into Jarrod's body.

"Damn!"

Jarrod knelt on the ground and hugged himself tightly His entire body was twitching, and cold sweat
dripped down on the floor.

The bug crawled into his wound and swiftly flowed along his vessels. As it went through his body,
Jarrod felt so painful that he wanted to commit suicide.

However, Aaron said coldly, "You are Alice's son, and you have the blood of the Harper family. If you
want to survive, find a way to kill this bug. Otherwise, no one can save you. I have only one son, but if
you really die, I can still have a child with Lina. You know, she is only in her twenties. If you want to live,
then practice your mother's abilities."

With that, Aaron walked out and locked the door.

Jarrod rolled on the ground in pain.

There was nothing in the ancestral hall expect a few large vats.

The vats were filled with bugs. Some of them had just been captured, and some of them were raised by
Jarrod. Every time that he knelt in the ancestral hall, he would experience this pain. Jarrod thought that
he was used to it, but this time, Jarrod felt a little wronged.

He groaned in the intense pain. His red eyes stared fixedly at Alice's tablet on the table and asked,
"Why? Mom, why? My younger brother doesn't want to talk to me, and my father didn't like me. Why
did you give birth to me? Why?"

He slammed his head on the table and his forehead was bleeding.



The bug in his body seemed to smell blood and became even more excited. It ran around in his body.

Jarrod finally couldn't help but scream. Hearing the scream in pain, the security guards of the ancestral
hall trembled in fear.

He wished he could die, but he couldn't.

How could he die after suffering for so many years?

Bugs!

This time, the bug Aaron put into Jarrod's body was so powerful.

Jarrod's clothes were drenched in sweat.

He felt that every inch of his skin was being bitten by something, and every inch of his bones were
being cut apart.

He took out a bottle from his pocket, stuffed the medicine into his mouth with his trembling hands, and
soon began to vomit.

He spat out large amounts of black blood. The bugs in the blood were wriggling, making his entire body
feel numb.

Jarrod gasped before finally taking out his lighter and igniting his black blood. The crackling sound
made his eyes look extremely gloomy.

He looked like a devil, without any emotion.

Taking a deep breath, Jarrod aimed the lighter at his wound.



The intense burning feeling caused the bug in his body to become restless.

Jarrod immediately sensed its exact location and immediately took out his military dagger. Then he
stabbed towards his chest without hesitation.

At the same time, he smashed a large vat beside him. The moment the poisonous scorpion fell on the
ground, Jarrod directly grabbed it with his hand and stuffed it into the wound on his chest.

The two bugs started fighting in his body.

Jarrod was in so much pain that he almost fainted, but he couldn't.

He could only clench his teeth and endure it bit by bit.

More than an hour later, the poisonous scorpion finally killed the bug that Aaron had put into his body,
but the poisonous scorpion was almost dead.

Jarrod picked it out with a dagger and burned it to death. Then, he took out a bottle and poured himself
a detoxification pill. Only then did he lie on the ice-cold floor.

Once again, he escaped death. Now, he was so skilled in dealing with the bug every time. But his body
was full of wounds.

However, his heart was still restless.

Before, he didn't know why he wanted to live like this, but now, he had a goal.

A very clear but crazy goal.

Jarrod looked at Alice's tablet on the table and smiled evilly.



"Mom, did you see that? This is the man you chose as your lover. You told him not to let me touch the
bugs. I did not take the initiative to touch the bugs, but I had to touch these things to survive since I was
four years old. Would you still think your decision was right if you were here now?"
