The Crazy Son-In-Law

After a bumpy ride, the competition venue came into view. Harrow had spared no effort to host the “Hero Cup” event, having built a temporary competition venue on the outskirts half a month ago. The venue, about the size of a football field, had four arenas and seating for a thousand spectators. It was rumored that the ticket prices for this event had skyrocketed to a hundred thousand in the hands of scalpers, with front-row seats reaching astronomical figures. Those fortunate enough to attend were either wealthy or influential.

After parking, Xiao Shun and his companions met with Wen Yao at the entrance of the venue. Wen Yao had slimmed down noticeably in the past few days, but in Xiao Shun’s eyes, she was still far from fully recovered and would need to soak in medicinal baths a few more times to regain her strength.

After exchanging a few words, Wen Yao hesitantly said, “Originally, due to my injury, I hadn’t planned on participating in this competition. But after hearing Linger mention it, I found myself looking forward to it, so I decided to come and broaden my horizons!”

Her strength was not weak, but previous training errors had hindered her progress. With hope for recovery, she intended to validate her learning.

No one was surprised by this. Shortly after, the group hurried into the venue.

Upon entering, Yang Tiancai was awestruck. “Wow, to think they could build such an open-air arena in just half a month. It truly lives up to the title of ‘building maniac’!”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Xiao Shun and his companions had already arranged their participation qualifications through Duan Jia the day before, with a total of three identity cards handed over to the staff by Xiao Shun. Wen Yao had also taken care of her qualifications the day before when she came out.

After verifying everyone’s identities, the young staff returned the cards to the four of them, then gestured towards a nearby area. “There’s a dedicated area for the competitors to rest ahead. You can go over there and wait for the start of the competition!”

Glancing over, they saw about a dozen competitors already seated in that area, each with an eager expression.

The staff then looked at Zhu Que and Louis accompanying Xiao Shun and said, “The event also has a designated area for attendants and family members, right next to the competitors’ rest area!”

“Thank you!”

Xiao Shun nodded at the person and then proceeded to the designated area. Louis and Zhu Que, after bidding him farewell, also headed towards the designated viewing area.

Their task for today was very simple, as Yao Cen had put it, absolutely no room for any mishaps!

Originally, Zhu Que was hesitant to promise this, but now with Louis by her side, she readily agreed to Yao Cen’s deployment. If she teamed up with Louis, their combined strength wouldn’t simply be one plus one, but would show geometric growth.

Just imagine, Louis confronting enemies up close with the spirit pattern inscribed on his body, while Zhu Que used spirit pattern weapons to shoot from a distance. What a powerful combination that would be!

For the past few days, Zhu Que and Louis had been studying this combat plan. Now, they were able to coordinate seamlessly.

“I’m really interested in this person named Gu Baiyi,” Louis said with interest while sitting in his chair.

“You’re no match for him,” Zhu Que replied calmly.

“What if we team up against him?”

“At most, we can only hold him off for five minutes, and that’s with a mindset of facing death.”

Upon hearing Zhu Que’s resolute answer, Louis couldn’t help but show a trace of shock in his eyes.

Two world-class assassins teaming up could only hold out for five minutes, and that’s under desperate circumstances. How formidable must this person be?

At this thought, Louis subconsciously looked in the direction of Xiao Shun.

Perhaps only he could deal with someone so formidable?

He wasn’t just pondering; he was questioning himself.

At that moment, Xiao Shun and Song Linger, among others, walked into the preparation area and sat down. Facing the upcoming competition, Xiao Shun felt calm and free of worry. His goal had been clear from the start-forceful revenge!Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Shortly after they sat down, a few people suddenly entered the area. Wen Yao happened to be looking in their direction and her expression changed upon seeing them. The group consisted of her cousin Wen Ting, Wen Yan, and their cousin Wen Xuan.

Soon, the three from the Wen family also noticed Wen Yao’s gaze, and for a moment, they appeared extremely surprised. After all, Wen Yao no longer looked as bulky as before and had regained her previous graceful figure.

However, their surprise was short-lived. Once they regained their composure, their faces were filled with mockery.

“Hey, isn’t that our cousin Wen Yao? It seems like your recent weight loss is working well for you. Did you eat some kind of weight loss medicine? The effect is so good?” Wen Ting sneered, taking slow steps toward Wen Yao.

Wen Yan, not to be outdone, smiled and said, “I heard that taking those kinds of medicines has significant side effects. By then, cousin, you might end up even fatter than before. You might end up as fat as a pig!”

“Haha, that’s right!” Wen Xuan burst into laughter, his smile filled with mockery.

Yang Tiancai couldn’t bear to listen any longer. Although he hadn’t known Wen Yao for long, he was very fond of this gentle and kind girl. How could he sit still when she was being humiliated like this?

He stood up from his chair, his gaze cold as he looked at the three people mocking Wen Yao.

“You bunch of…!”

Before he could finish his sentence, Wen Yao had already pulled him back.

Seeing Yang Tiancai, his face full of anger for her sake, Wen Yao couldn’t help but feel touched and shook her head at him.

“Tiancai, it’s okay.”

Seeing this, Yang Tiancai said indignantly, “Since you called me ‘genius brother,’ how could I let others treat you like this?”

As they were talking, Wen Xuan suddenly sneered at Yang Tiancai.

“Huh, where did this idiot come from, daring to be so arrogant?”

The Wen family held a revered position in Harrow, and even the richest man, Tan Haohan, showed them great respect. It was unexpected that they were now being looked down upon by an unknown person. The three siblings naturally wouldn’t let this go.

Despite Yang Tiancai often appearing jolly and carefree, he was a strong and formidable loose cultivator.

Faced with such ridicule, of course, he couldn’t bear it.

So, he glared resentfully at the arrogant Wen Xuan and, without looking back, said to Wen Yao, who was holding his arm, “Sis, don’t stop me. Today, I must make this guy kneel and beg for mercy!”

Seeing Yang Tiancai in a fury, Wen Xuan sneered disdainfully.

“Just a piece of trash, and yet he dares to meddle in our Wen family’s business? With your abilities, I could crush you with just a flick of my finger!”
