The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Capítulo 1017: Chapter 1016: Rising Stronger in Battle

“From a moral standpoint, I truly shouldn’t take your life. After all, doing so might bring great disaster to this world. However, I have compelling reasons, so under any circumstance, I must kill you.” Yang Junming said helplessly to Su Changfeng.

Su Changfeng didn’t understand why Yang Junming would say this, but he was not afraid in his heart. At this moment, Su Changfeng actually wished for a battle, perhaps even more so than Yang Junming. He also wanted to see how much potential he still had.

“If you want to take my life, you should see if I’m willing.” Su Changfeng said coldly.

Yang Junming, who had just had his hands behind his back, now placed them in front, appearing ready for a serious confrontation.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Mr. Wu jumped down from the tree because he knew that Yang Junming was now serious and wouldn’t be like before. So he had to find a suitable position. If he remained in the tree, and Su Changfeng couldn’t withstand the attack, then it would be too late for him to save anyone.

Elder Wu also reached the lakeside and gently stroked his white beard.

And Shen Hanxue, who had been observing the battle, suddenly saw someone familiar in the crowd and ran over directly.

“Grandpa, you finally arrived, I beg you to help Chang Feng.” Shen Hanxue pleaded to Elder Wu.

“Don’t worry too much. Since I promised you earlier, I will ensure his safety without a doubt,” Elder Wu said calmly, as if everything was under control with him around. Even if Yang Junming intended to kill Su Changfeng, he would be able to protect Su Changfeng.

The always anxious Shen Hanxue felt somewhat reassured after hearing this, but her heart still ached terribly as she looked at Su Changfeng.

In the crowd, Guan Shan, who kept his head down with a black hat, naturally noticed the sudden arrival of an elder. When he saw Elder Wu, his pupils dilated instantly. He never expected Elder Wu would appear here, and now with him present, Yang Junming killing Su Changfeng was impossible.

A cold sweat broke out on Guan Shan’s forehead, and he only had one thought in his mind: to leave here as fast as possible, making sure Elder Wu didn’t notice his presence.

Yet he was unwilling to leave just like that. After all, through this battle, Elder Wu might view Su Changfeng more favorably, and if Su Changfeng really joined Tuo Shi, it would definitely affect his status.

“Who am I, Guan Shan? How many people have been defeated by me? Why would I fear a commoner? Even if he really enters Tuo Shi, so what?” Guan Shan kept reassuring himself, trying to convince himself that Su Changfeng wasn’t worthy of being his rival.

But no matter how he reassured himself, regardless of what words he used to convince himself, the fact remained that when he descended from Tuo Shi Mountain intending to kill Su Changfeng, it already explained everything; he was afraid of Su Changfeng and thus exerted such effort.

Seeing the plan fail this time and being unable to kill Su Changfeng, Guan Shan had no choice but to lower his hat and quietly leave the crowd.

Now with Elder Wu personally present, Guan Shan dared not make any moves even if he was bold enough to.

Previously those things were all done secretly, but now with Elder Wu here, those things couldn’t be shown.

“I’m sorry to tell you, despite all this, today I still must take your life.” Continuing to be torn, Yang Junming finally resolved to kill Su Changfeng.

Even if killing Su Changfeng might bring many troubles to this world, if he couldn’t protect his child, how could he have the face to claim to protect the world?

Su Changfeng felt the power within him surging, and his gaze turned icy. Hearing Yang Junming’s words, not a trace of fear was present, instead, he felt excitement.

For Su Changfeng, it’s a rare opportunity; he’s never fought so fervently.

“This battle, I’ll fight joyfully. Even if I die by your hand today, I will willingly accept it.” Su Changfeng said excitedly to Yang Junming.

The moment the words fell, he again leaped into the air, launching an attack.

In the sky, two figures flew back and forth. Even though Su Changfeng was not as experienced as Yang Junming in combat, he relied on excitement and his internal power to fight Yang Junming evenly. Even when momentarily disadvantaged, Su Changfeng could quickly adjust and prepare to attack again.

Everyone’s gaze was fixed on Su Changfeng and Yang Junming’s battle, afraid to miss any exciting moments. To them, it was definitely a good show, more gripping than any TV drama scene, as one was real while the other was mere acting, not authentic.

Meanwhile, Elder Wu, observing from the side, was particularly shocked, as Su Changfeng’s performance was truly beyond his expectations.

The pity is, Su Changfeng’s combat experience fell too short compared to Yang Junming, thus despite the back-and-forth, effective attacks were few. This expends energy, and soon enough, he may be defeated.

“Under my guidance, in less than a year, beating Guan Shan aside, even Yang Junming wouldn’t defeat you. But whether it’s Guan Shan or Yang Junming, achieving their prowess took heaps of effort and time,” Elder Wu said, eyes fixed on Su Changfeng.

Guan Shan has always been considered Tuo Shi’s shining star, breaking many records therein, and even Elder Wu thought no one could surpass him. But after this battle, Elder Wu realized the records Guan Shan set would one day be broken by Su Changfeng.

The title of Tuo Shi’s prodigy might just change hands.

“Grandpa, won’t you step in to save Chang Feng now?” Shen Hanxue asked Elder Wu worriedly. Although Su Changfeng is fighting back and forth with Yang Junming, Shen Hanxue watched attentively and noticed that Su Changfeng was always on the receiving end, and if it continued, she’d truly fear Su Changfeng might not survive.

“If I intervene now, he would surely resent this old man,” Elder Wu hesitated before saying, “You should be able to see; he’s quite enjoying the fight.”

Shen Hanxue indeed noticed Su Changfeng thoroughly enjoyed the fight, despite being disadvantaged, he was utterly engaged, which led Shen Hanxue to bewilderment; could it be Su Changfeng always wanted to be beaten like this?
