The Crazy Son-In-Law

From the moment Wenfeng saw Miao Hong remove the Arcane Vigor shield and switch to offense, Xiao Shun knew Miao Hong was doomed to lose. What happened next confirmed his prediction. Without the toxic mist, Miao Hong’s Gu insects were merely frightening in appearance but posed minimal threat to Wenfeng. Wenfeng only needed to keep the insects at a distance, which was not difficult for a Posterior stage cultivator.

After dispersing the toxic mist, Wenfeng charged directly at Miao Hong. Seeing this, Miao Hong gritted his teeth and shouted, “Bastard, I’ll fight you to the death!” Without the assistance of his Gu insects, he was like a toothless tiger, barely even a cat. He managed to withstand two moves from Wenfeng before being struck down and heavily thrown off the stage.

Most of the audience were ordinary people and were stunned by Miao Hong’s sudden defeat. The host swallowed hard, looking pale as he glanced at the unconscious Miao Hong lying nearby. He then discreetly looked at the Silvermeadows clan members, many of whom were visibly angry. The host felt uneasy but had no choice but to announce the winner despite not wanting to offend the Silvermeadows clan.

With a trembling hand, he picked up the microphone and announced in a shaky voice, “The winner of this round is Wenfeng!” Immediately, boos erupted from the crowd. Ignoring the jeers and cold glares from the Silvermeadows clan, the host approached Wenfeng on stage and asked, “Mr. Wen, would you like to rest or continue your challenge? As the victor, it is your right.”All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Wenfeng did not respond immediately but looked at Miao Hong being carried away with a satisfied smile. His purpose for coming to Heaverpool was to settle scores with Miao Hong for attacking his sister. Now that Miao Hong had been punished, Wenfeng had no desire to continue fighting. He shook his head and began to speak when a man in white robes from the Silvermeadows clan stepped forward and interrupted with a heavy snort.

“Hmph! You injured my brother. If you have guts, fight me now for three hundred rounds. I, Miao Lijiang, will not let you off!” Wenfeng smiled slightly. “Provocation won’t work on me; I don’t care about your taunts.” Miao Lijiang’s eyes narrowed as he sneered, “Then I’ll go after your sister and settle our score with her!”

Wenfeng’s expression hardened as he glared at Miao Lijiang. Unfazed, Miao Lijiang continued with a cold laugh, “The choice is yours: fight me now or wait for me to find your sister.” “Come up here and face death!” Wenfeng replied with just four words.

Wenfeng and Wenyao were siblings who had been bullied by their cousins due to family circumstances. Despite being young then, Wenyao always protected her brother without complaint, even if it meant getting hurt herself. When Wenyao’s cultivation went awry recently, Wenfeng searched high and low for reclusive masters to cure her. A month ago, he learned that his sister had returned home cured. He rushed back only to hear about how Miao Hong from Silvermeadows ambushed her.

Considering Wenyuan’s influence and backing from Old School Society, Wenfeng had held back on settling old scores until now. Upon hearing about Heaverpool’s events, he hurried over to avenge his sister. His deep bond with Wenyao made any threat against her intolerable.

Seeing Miao Lijiang on stage ready to fight, Wenfeng’s expression turned icy. “Boy, are you ready to face my wrath?” Miao Lijiang taunted with a smile. Ignoring him, Wenfeng asked the host if he could start. The host wisely said nothing and sprinted off the stage before loudly announcing, “The match begins!”

As soon as those words left his mouth, Wenfeng lunged at Miao Lijiang with a swift step. His dagger flashed towards Miao Lijiang’s shoulder in a blur of motion. A hum filled the air as cold light sliced through it and ripples spread outwards.

Miao Lijiang quickly formed seals with his hands as black mist emanated from his body-his refined Gu poison! Unlike Ruan Jinshui and Miao Hong who relied on Gu insects, Miao Lijiang had turned his own body into a Gu vessel-known in the Gu world as a “Flesh Gu.” This made his Gu techniques faster than those who used insect Gu.

The sudden poison mist interrupted Wenfeng’s attack; he withdrew his dagger and unleashed Arcane Vigor into the air instead. The powerful energy clashed with the poison mist before dissipating without a trace.

Wenfeng’s heart skipped a beat in shock while Miao Lijiang laughed maniacally. “Haha! My brother and I are very different; trying to wear me down like you did him won’t work!” With that, he flicked his wide sleeve and shot out a “black arrow” composed of poison.

The sinister arrow reached Wenfeng in an instant. At the critical moment, Wenfeng didn’t retreat but advanced instead, slashing at it with his dagger enveloped in Arcane Vigor’s glow.

A streak of light cut through as the blade struck the black arrow.

“Bang!” A cloud of black mist exploded in front of Wenfeng; tendrils of poison spread outwards.

Not good! Alarmed by this turn of events, Wenfeng darted to his left to avoid being engulfed by the toxic mist.

He hadn’t expected Miao Lijiang to be so formidable that just one casual move could put him in such dire straits!

After dodging five steps away safely out of reach from spreading poison clouds-just when he thought he could catch his breath-two more poison arrows came hurtling towards him while hearing Miao Lijiang’s mocking voice echoing nearby: “Hehe! Dodged one move? Let’s see if you can dodge two!”
