The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Capítulo 740: Chapter 741: The Mysterious Old Madam

Shangguan Xuanjie’s face was sullen. If things were really as Shangguan Wan’er said, then his efforts to find Su Changfeng would be of no help at all in the struggle for the position of Family Head.

Su Changfeng listened to their conversation beside them. Although there was no change in his expression, his heart was not calm.

The other dimension Shangguan Wan’er mentioned, could it be what Grandpa Huo talked about before?

If it’s true, then this time he could leverage the Shangguan Family to make contact with people from another dimension, maybe he could understand how the sudden power in his body came about.

Before the dinner began, the arrival of Shangguan Sichen made everyone in the dining room stand up instantly, just like greeting a big figure. This similarly demonstrated Shangguan Sichen’s influence within the Shangguan Family.

And the young man following him was Shangguan Wenchuan, now wearing a smug smile, and deliberately glancing at Shangguan Xuanjie and Shangguan Yunjie, as if showing off.

The white-haired Shangguan Sichen waved his hand, signaling everyone to sit down.

But Su Changfeng was not qualified to sit, only allowed to stand behind Shangguan Xuanjie.

As Shangguan Xuanjie was about to introduce Su Changfeng to Shangguan Sichen, Shangguan Sichen stated, “Idle people, hurry up and leave now.”

Shangguan Xuanjie looked embarrassed. Shangguan Sichen referred to idle people, wasn’t he talking about Su Changfeng?

“You go outside first,” Shangguan Xuanjie said helplessly.

Upon hearing this, Su Changfeng turned and left directly, without hesitation. Given the current circumstances, he didn’t need to show how defiant he was, and the aura from Shangguan Sichen, generated from long-standing superiority, evidently surpassed Ye Qingtian, making Su Changfeng unwilling to antagonize such a person on his first day in the Shangguan Family.

Such a powerful noble family as the Shangguan Family was something Su Changfeng experienced for the first time, while those so-called upper-class noble families in Beijing were not even fit to carry shoes for the Shangguan Family.

Su Changfeng was aware that his situation here would undeniably become more difficult and would be looked down upon by the Shangguan Family’s people, but for the potential rescue of Ye Nianhai, all he could do was endure.

However, one thing Su Changfeng couldn’t understand was, with Shangguan Xuanjie orchestrating the entire event, why would he consistently target him throughout the process?

Su Changfeng was smoking when suddenly, an elderly Old Madam with a cane came to Su Changfeng. Her face full of wrinkles, she seemed to be a century old, resembling an exhausted individual.

“Is your name Su Changfeng?” the Old Madam asked Su Changfeng.

Upon hearing this, Su Changfeng frowned slightly. How could someone in the Shangguan Family possibly know who he was? It seemed impossible.

“Old Madam, how do you know what my name is?” Su Changfeng asked, puzzled.

“Your grandmother, Shangguan Feihong, how is she recently?” the Old Madam asked.

Su Changfeng’s heart tightened. Why would this person casually mention Shangguan Feihong!

“Old Madam, do you… do you know Shangguan Feihong?” Su Changfeng’s breathing, for some unknown reason, became somewhat rapid. Shangguan Feihong, the Shangguan Family, could there be some connection between them? How increasingly absurd!

Could it be that Shangguan Feihong was a member of the Shangguan Family?

“You ungrateful thing, calling your grandmother directly by her name! Don’t you even know the basic courtesy?”

Su Changfeng had never considered Shangguan Feihong as his grandmother, because her continuous bias made all of Su Changfeng’s feelings for her vanish. Even when she was forced to hang herself, Su Changfeng’s heart showed no emotion.

If it weren’t for Shangguan Feihong, Su Changfeng’s childhood would not have been so dark.

“She never considered me her family, so she also isn’t qualified to be my grandmother!” Su Changfeng said coldly.

Upon hearing this, the Old Madam became visibly more agitated, suddenly raising her cane to strike Su Changfeng.

Su Changfeng did not dodge, as the strength of such an elderly person couldn’t possibly cause him any harm; the cane hitting him felt more like tickling him.

“Kneel immediately, bow your head and admit your mistake to her,” the Old Madam said furiously.

Su Changfeng’s expression tightened as he coldly said, “Regardless of the relationship between you and her, you have no right to make me kneel to Shangguan Feihong; it’s simply impossible. Besides, I can tell you right now, she’s no longer in this world.”

The Old Madam was stunned upon hearing this, and after a long period, she shook her head, sighed, and turned around, trembling as she left.

Su Changfeng hadn’t yet asked about her relationship with Shangguan Feihong when he saw the elderly figure, seemingly becoming even more hunched suddenly.

“Shangguan Feihong, who exactly are you? Could it be that someone has been secretly manipulating everything behind the scenes?” Su Changfeng muttered. He couldn’t foresee the entire situation yet, but eventually, the whole matter would be thoroughly investigated.

After dinner, all members of the Shangguan Family went to the Shangguan Martial Arts arena.

This place was built for the younger generation of the Shangguan Family. Shangguan Sichen hoped that the younger generation could achieve something in Martial Arts, but unfortunately, since the completion of the venue, the Shangguan Family hadn’t produced a single overly powerful expert.

“I’m ready here, Grandpa, we can start any time now.” Shangguan Yunjie said eagerly, coming before Shangguan Sichen; he was desperate to showcase his abilities and didn’t want to watch Shangguan Wenchuan steal the spotlight.

Shangguan Sichen nodded and said to Shangguan Xuanjie, “Where is the helper you brought back? Let him perform.”

Shangguan Xuanjie glanced at Su Changfeng, signaling him to step forward.

Su Changfeng did not hesitate and immediately walked towards the stage. However, compared to Shangguan Yunjie, Su Changfeng’s stature was vastly different, like a person from a small country facing someone from a giant country.

The scene made many people laugh loudly.

“Where did Shangguan Xuanjie find such trash? Did he find him in the land of little people?”

“I heard Shangguan Xuanjie destroyed Purgatory for this guy, but this waste doesn’t seem to have any outstanding qualities. Purgatory annually brought substantial funds to the Shangguan Family.”

“Just wait and see, Shangguan Xuanjie will definitely be held accountable by the Family Head. This trash is useless, and Shangguan Xuanjie actually destroyed Purgatory for this person. It’s truly an enormous joke.”
