It's a verb phrase, not a noun phrase. See examples:

黨內人士研判,黃雖是玩笑話,但話中有刺,表達出對卓、羅參與總統蔡英文輔選的不信任。

沒想到這位朋友瀕臨離婚,大概覺得蔡康永話中有刺、或者覺得是在可憐她,

老油條的司機慢條斯理不疾不徐,臉上帶笑卻話中有刺,

如果他的臉色不對勁或話中有刺,你可要忍耐,要微笑、微笑,知道嗎.

NC ~ one's/sb's words carry barbs/a sting : 他話中有刺。There was sarcasm in his words.
Diff:
- 話中有刺 话中有刺 [hua4 zhong1 you3 ci4] /hidden barbs in one's words/hostile subtext/
+ 話中有刺 话中有刺 [hua4 zhong1 you3 ci4] /one's words carry barbs/one's remarks are sarcastic/
