The Crazy Son-In-Law

Zheng Yingxiong was furious to see his current boss being scolded so harshly. “You know nothing, this is Xiao…” he began, but before he could finish, Xiao Shun signaled with his eyes not to reveal his identity. The boss’s gaze was as sharp as lightning, and Zheng Yingxiong dared not overstep, immediately silencing himself.

“Such a nobody thinks he can challenge the masters? He’s seeking death,” jeered Banana Brother, his face twisting mockingly. A gang member chimed in, laughing, “Right, boss! With one chop from me, he’d either be dead or severely injured!”

Nie Jiuchong’s reaction was unknown, but he was probably furious enough to tear these fools apart. After all, even the ‘Stag’s Sever’ forged from precious metals and meteorite dust hadn’t cut this kid down. And now they think a mere machete could seriously injure him? What a joke!

Autumn Zhan and Haitang were unexpectedly watching Xiao Shun. They hadn’t anticipated him stepping up at this moment. It was clear that the Riverdale experts were using the Old School Society to establish dominance, aiming to quickly expand the Qingyun Association’s influence in the mainland. Yet, Xiao Shun, an enemy of the Old School Society, stood up for them, a move that was truly surprising.

The head of Pili Sect, Lei Zhenxiao, known for his temper, mocked, “Today, our only opponents are the Old School Society. You, just a nobody, better scram and stop wasting our time!”

“Even though your target is the Old School Society, the words you spoke earlier were quite displeasing to me,” Xiao Shun said calmly, a smile forming at the corner of his mouth. His gaze swept across the three Riverdale experts, adding, “Since you hold such disdain, I must seek justice for the mainland cultivators. This isn’t for the Old School Society, but for all mainland cultivators!”

The crowd erupted into applause as Xiao Shun spoke. His words ignited a strong spirit of resistance among the onlookers, much to the annoyance of the Riverdale group. How could this be allowed?

Led by Banana Brother, the gang members united once more, mocking Xiao Shun for overestimating himself and courting disaster. Xiao Shun paid them no mind, stepping beside Autumn Zhan and Haitang, joining forces with his old rivals.

“You have no right to stand here!” Ye Bang glared at Xiao Shun, furious that such an insignificant figure dared challenge the seasoned Riverdale elders.

“Jumping clown!” was all Xiao Shun replied.

“What did you say?” Ye Bang’s face was full of murderous intent.

“You heard me,” Xiao Shun stood, hands behind his back, completely composed.

Enraged, Ye Bang stomped his foot and revealed his muscular arm, striking towards Xiao Shun with a visible surge of Arcane Vigor.

Xiao Shun simply smiled, casually waving his hand. Immediately, a strong wind emanated from his palm, reaching Ye Bang in an instant. As the wind hit him, Ye Bang scoffed, “Trash! You think this Arcane Vigor can break my Hong Fist? Ridiculous-”

A scream cut him off, followed by blood spattering as Ye Bang fell heavily, a long trail of blood at the corner of his mouth. Xiao Shun’s casual gesture had severely wounded him.

Silence fell over the venue. Everyone’s eyes were on Xiao Shun, their faces filled with shock.

As Xiao Shun approached the fallen Ye Bang, he looked down and shook his head, “Is that all?”

He then glanced at the three Riverdale experts, scoffing, “With such skills, you dare meddle in the mainland martial world? Laughable!”

At that moment, Xiao Shun’s arrogance knew no bounds.

“You’re courting death!” Ye Bang yelled furiously.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

“Shut up,” Xiao Shun kicked him. Ye Bang quickly covered himself with Arcane Vigor, confident in his protection.

“Don’t think a lucky strike means you can disrespect me. My Hong Fist protective technique is unmatched,” Ye Bang boasted, just before the sound of shattering glass echoed. The protective Arcane Vigor around him cracked.

“How is this possible?” Ye Bang was in disbelief. His technique should have withstood three attacks from an “Anterior” cultivator, yet it couldn’t withstand a single kick from Xiao Shun?

But his shock was short-lived as Xiao Shun’s kick broke through his defenses and struck his shoulder.

“Crack!” “Snap!” “Ahh!”

These sounds rang out simultaneously as Ye Bang’s shoulder blade shattered, and he was sent flying by Xiao Shun’s kick.

Standing still, Xiao Shun shook his head and muttered, “Unable to withstand even two of my casual moves, and yet you dare claim there’s no one in the mainlandworthy of challenge?” Applause and cheers once again filled the venue. “Damn, that gets my blood boiling!” “Well done, beat those losers!” …

Haitang glanced deeply at Xiao Shun’s retreating figure, then turned to Autumn Zhan. “Sigh,” Autumn Zhan sighed deeply, his expression somewhat desolate. Even he could not easily injure a “Half-Step Anterior” cultivator with casual moves. Now, he fully believed what Nie Jiuchong had said: Xiao Shun’s cultivation was far beyond his own, a true peak “Anterior Realm” powerhouse, far out of his reach.
