The Crazy Son-In-Law

Strolling along the winding mountain path, Xiao Shun was unaware that his upcoming battle with Nie Jiuchong would affect the choices of many. The Eastbrook Old School Society, without a doubt, would inevitably join the New School Society afterwards. As for how many Seniors on the mountainside would join, it was hard to judge, as some Senior with deep scheming had not yet expressed their opinions. But these were not the things Xiao Shun should be concerned about at the moment.

The mountaintop was within sight, and his battle with Nie Jiuchong was about to begin. Due to Nie Yue’s death, Xiao Shun and the Old School Society’s leader had long been at odds. If it weren’t for this matter, his current identity would not be Mr. Xiao, but merely a branch head of the Old School Society.

With a slight surge in his heart, Xiao Shun stepped onto the mountaintop. Unlike the lush vegetation covering the mountainside, the Cliffside was bald and barren. Standing next to the cliff on the eastern side was an old building, the “Hanging Flask Inn,” which had witnessed the changes of the world over countless years of exposure to sun and rain.

At this moment, a middle-aged man was sitting motionless at the entrance of the Hanging Flask Inn, gazing at Xiao Shun with electric eyes and a gloomy expression. “I must admit, to break through the ‘Unification Phalanx’ at such speed is quite surprising,” he said slowly, standing up and walking towards Xiao Shun with his hands behind his back.

Xiao Shun smiled faintly and walked towards the middle-aged man. As they faced each other, a fierce fighting spirit arose between them. After a moment, they stopped five meters apart, composed and ready. Amidst the raging wind, the mountaintop exuded a solemn and murderous atmosphere. The middle-aged man stared coldly with his eyes, a hint of a sneer on his lips. “Heh, I never expected that someone who I once could easily control as a branch head would now stand here with me,” he said with a cold voice.

Hearing this, Xiao Shun casually fixed his wind-blown clothes and chuckled, “Master Nie, you’re still as arrogant as ever, aren’t you?” Seeing Xiao Shun’s nonchalance, Nie Jiuchong’s anger flared up. Suppressing the urge to rush forward and strike, he gave Xiao Shun a cold glance. “Do you know why you’re still alive?” Xiao Shun smiled without confirming, standing tall and proud. “It’s because I was too kind to you!”

Nie Jiuchong answered himself. He continued with seriousness, “After Yue’s death, I didn’t pay much attention to you, a mere branch head, but I ordered my disciple, Gu Baiyi, to avenge my slain son. However, due to the obstruction of a group of rats, we failed in the end.” “When the ‘Hero Cup’ was held, I still didn’t take you seriously. Little did I know that you had already made a name for yourself then, destroying my Daoxin, and now you have become Mr. Xiao, ready to confront my Old School Society!”

Faced with Nie Jiuchong’s long speech, Xiao Shun only replied with four words. “Reap what you sow.” Yes, all of this was Nie Jiuchong’s own doing. Why did Nie Yue die? It was his own actions. Why was Gu Baiyi beaten so badly? It was because he had previously condoned Yang Zinuo’s humiliation of Song Ling’er. Xiao Shun had to avenge this insult. As for why the Old School Society was in the current situation, that was a long story, best left untold. And now, Nie Jiuchong was blaming all of this on Xiao Shun, who couldn’t be bothered to argue.

Whoever wanted to take the blame, let them take it. In the end, it would come down to fists speaking. Just as he was silently cursing inside his heart, Nie Jiuchong said in a deep voice, “Xiao Shun, the enmity between us, whether public or private, is irreconcilable!” “Then why waste words?” Xiao Shun chuckled. “Because I feel that simply killing you won’t soothe the hatred in my heart!” With his hands behind his back, Nie Jiuchong’s face showed a cruel expression.

“Killing me?” Xiao Shun shook his head, looking at Nie Jiuchong with a playful smile. “I’m afraid you don’t have what it takes!” “Although we are both in the Anterior realm, you have only recently broken through, probably only at the first level of the Anterior realm, while I have stood at this level for many years.

Besides, you must have consumed a lot of energy climbing the mountain. With this give-and-take, you are still so shameless?” Squinting his eyes, Nie Jiuchong looked calmly at Xiao Shun. Seeing this, Xiao Shun disdainfully said, “I was wondering why Master Nie was standing alone at the mountaintop.

So it turns out you were planning this, truly a fame-seeking individual.” He had been curious why Nie Jiuchong hadn’t intercepted him with the other Seniors on the mountainside. It turned out he wanted the other Seniors to consume Xiao Shun first with a formation, so Nie Jiuchong could take the opportunity to attack him on the Cliffside to clear the name of the Old School Society.

“What kind of person are you if you can’t even defeat my subordinates? Do you deserve to fight me?” Nie Jiuchong sneered, justifying his actions. Surprisingly dignified! Xiao Shun would not engage in verbal disputes with him. He simply said with no emotion, “Now that I’m here, shouldn’t Master Nie make a move?”

“If you wish! Ni” With a thunderous roar, Nie Jiuchong instantly activated his formidable Arcane Vigor, creating an unparalleled pressure as he attacked Xiao Shun. The momentum was like a raging wave, stirring up flying sand and rolling stones around them. With his cultivation at the third level of the Anterior realm, it was truly impressive. Standing amidst the violent Arcane Vigor, Xiao Shun remained calm, murmuring softly, “The third level of the Anterior realm, not bad.”

With a wave of his hand, a fierce wind surged from his sleeve, meeting Nie Jiuchong’s pressure head-on. The collision produced a resounding boom at the Cliffside, and the intense airflow swept from the mountaintop to the base, causing trees to sway and leaves to rustle. In the bamboo forest, Jiang Jian exclaimed, “My god, is this what it’s like when Arcane Vigor of the Anterior level clashes?” “It’s terrifying.

If I were watching the battle at the mountaintop, I fear I would be killed on the spot by the impact!” Xiao Lie was amazed. Initially, he had doubts about Xiao Shun, but witnessing this scene, he was impressed! At this moment, someone puzzledly remarked, “But isn’t Mr. Xiao too powerful? He climbed the mountain in less than half an hour and is now already fighting with Master Nie at the mountaintop?”

“Hiss!” As soon as the person finished speaking, there were countless gasps around him. Everyone had not noticed this earlier, as the two powerful forces on the mountaintop were too terrifying to ignore, leaving them no attention to spare for other matters. Jiang Jian sighed, “Anyone who can go head-to-head with Master Nie is not surprising.”NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
