The Crazy Son-In-Law

Chapter 768: The Crisis at Silvermeadows



“Two Spirit Stones!”

Xiao Shun looked up at Miao Xiuyun, his eyes filled with anticipation.

“What attributes?”

“Gold and Earth!” Miao Xiuyun replied without hesitation. “Over the years, our Silvermeadows has obtained quite a few Spirit Stones from the spiritual veins. These were brought out at great risk!”

Hearing this, Xiao Shun suddenly thought of a small wooden box.

Could it be that Silvermeadows used that box containing the Water Spirit Stone to secretly transport Spirit Stones?

He didn’t ask this question aloud because the answer was already clear.

Xiao Shun smiled slightly at Miao Xiuyun.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Since Chief Miao is so generous, I won’t refuse. Let’s head to Silvermeadows immediately!”

Miao Xiuyun was overjoyed. “Leader Xiao, you are too kind. You are going to save Silvermeadows from disaster. If I don’t show enough sincerity, it would seem petty of me. Besides, we will be one entity in the future!”

This old fox is only afraid that I might go to the spiritual veins alone and get killed by the martial arts expert there, thus ruining Silvermeadows’ chance to regain freedom. That’s why he’s willingly offering two Spirit Stones.

Xiao Shun, with his deep understanding, instantly grasped the meaning behind Miao Xiuyun’s actions.

The two then headed towards Silvermeadows together.

Along the way, Miao Xiuyun explained the real reason why their bodies were suppressed by Gu techniques.

It was because experts from the Gu Clan had fed them a certain drug to suppress the Gu techniques in their bodies.

This was an effective method of enslavement, saving time and preventing rebellion among Silvermeadows’ people-a truly insidious tactic!

It seems my master knew all about the characteristics of the Hidden Families. No wonder he warned me that the Gu Clan is the most difficult to deal with.

Xiao Shun pondered silently. Soon, he saw a plume of smoke and flashes of red light ahead.

Miao Xiuyun’s expression changed drastically.

“Damn it! It must be other Meadowfolk taking advantage of the situation!”

“Hmm?” Xiao Shun was puzzled.

“Most likely, enemy scouts discovered that our elders were injured and launched an attack on Silvermeadows. Damn it!” Miao Xiuyun said angrily.

Xiao Shun knew that conflicts among Meadowfolks were constant. In recent years, Bronzemeadows and Redmeadows had allied against Silvermeadows’ dominance.

With four elders of Silvermeadows severely injured tonight, Qinghong Meadowfolk would naturally seize this opportunity to attack Silvermeadows.

This situation had something to do with Xiao Shun since he was the one who injured Silvermeadows’ elders. At that time, they were enemies, but now they were allies. He couldn’t just stand by and watch.

With this thought, Xiao Shun patted Miao Xiuyun’s shoulder reassuringly. “Let’s go; I’ll help you fight them off!”

Miao Xiuyun’s spirits lifted upon hearing this.

He had been worried that he couldn’t fend off the other two chiefs alone and was about to ask Xiao Shun for help. But before he could speak, Xiao Shun volunteered.

“Leader Xiao, after tonight, Silvermeadows will be united with you!” Miao Xiuyun said emotionally.

Waving his hand dismissively, Xiao Shun smiled. “No need for empty promises. Just make sure you contribute to New School Society in the future.”

With that, he stepped forward and swiftly moved towards the blazing area ahead.

As they got closer, Xiao Shun saw two groups confronting each other not far away.

The larger group was naturally Qinghong Meadowfolk.

Miao Ruohu and his men were clearly outnumbered.

“Miao Ruohu, your elders are injured; you’re severely weakened. Hand over control of several jade mines and leave half of your elders behind. We will let you go!” A middle-aged man in a red robe holding an incense burner spoke arrogantly.

This man was Miao Erye, the Great Elder of Redmeadows!

His status in Redmeadows was second only to the chief’s, and his strength was on par with Silvermeadows’ Second Elder. His mastery of Gu techniques was exceptional.

Just as Miao Ruohu was about to rebuke Miao Erye, someone stepped forward from the opposing side with a sneer on his face.

“Miao Erye is too kind! We should leave all of Silvermeadows’ elders behind to clip their wings. That way, Qinghong Meadowfolk will control these mountains!”

With that, he stood beside Miao Erye, glaring at Miao Ruohu.

Miao Erye glanced at him and shook his head.

“Qingfeng, we are all Meadowfolks; exterminating them might be unwise.”

The man called Qingfeng was Miao Qingfeng from Bronzemeadows’ Third Elder-known for his ruthlessness and feared by many Meadowfolks.

“Hmph! You are just a bunch of scoundrels trying to destroy my clan while our elders are injured!” Miao Ruohu said angrily as he glanced at his opponents.

Then he declared boldly: “As long as I have breath left tonight, I won’t let your plan succeed! There’s no way I’ll hand over our elders!”

After receiving orders from his father, he had been rushing back to the village but was intercepted by other Meadowfolk along the way.

They were still several miles from the village and surrounded by elderly and wounded people; their situation was precarious.

Despite this, Miao Ruohu remained defiant, moving those around him deeply with his resolve.

“Young Master, you should leave. There’s no need to fight these villains for us!” Second Elder shook his head helplessly.

Third Elder agreed: “He’s right; go back to the village! If you get hurt too, our clan will fall apart!”

The remaining Fourth Elder and Fifth Elder also looked resolutely at Miao Ruohu, urging him to leave quickly.

The clansmen supporting the elders spoke with grief: “Young Master, just go! We’ll stay behind and take down a few enemies with us!”

Seeing everyone’s determination made Miao Ruohu hesitant.

He wasn’t afraid of death but worried about his father’s situation. If he fought here and got injured or killed, there would be no one left to lead Silvermeadows-they might even face extinction!

As Miao Ruohu struggled with his decision, Miao Qingfeng laughed sinisterly.

“What a touching scene!”

Then he changed his tone mockingly: “Disgusting! Don’t worry; none of you will escape tonight. I’ll send you all to meet your maker!”
