The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

”Hmph, it seems Su Changfeng really told you too much about Tuo Shi. By doing so, he has violated the rules of Tuo Shi. As the Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion, I have every right to judge him. As long as he returns, I will definitely punish him,” Yin Zhengyuan said.

”These things, he doesn’t need to tell me about. I am well aware of them in my heart. In fact, my understanding of Tuo Shi far surpasses each and every one of you,” Shen Hanxue said.

”Nonsense, you’re just an ordinary person. How could you possibly know about Tuo Shi? I’ve lived here for decades,” Yin Zhengyuan said, full of disbelief.

There seemed to be some confusion in Shen Hanxue’s eyes. Indeed, she was just an ordinary woman, but ever since she stepped into Tuo Shi, her mind had been filled with many memories. Even she couldn’t quite understand what was happening, but these things were remarkably clear, as if they had happened just yesterday.

”Wait for him to return? Where on earth is he?” Shen Hanxue asked coldly.

Yin Zhengyuan snorted coldly and said, ”He may never have the chance to return. You claim to know Tuo Shi so well, but don’t you understand about the hidden secrets, the most dangerous places in Tuo Shi?”

Hidden secrets of Tuo Shi? The most dangerous places?

Shen Hanxue thought hard, but the information in this regard hadn’t awakened yet. She genuinely didn’t understand what Yin Zhengyuan meant.

Seeing Shen Hanxue’s reaction, Yin Zhengyuan couldn’t help but mock, ”You keep saying you know Tuo Shi well, but aren’t even aware of this? Hasn’t Su Changfeng told you?”

Shen Hanxue stood up, placing a foot on Yin Zhengyuan’s back, speaking coldly, ”Do you believe that with just one step, I can break your spine and completely cripple you?”

A flicker of fear crossed Yin Zhengyuan’s eyes. As the Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion, he was already accustomed to his lofty status. If he were truly to become crippled, he would surely lose his position as Pavilion Master, not to mention becoming a laughing stock. Such a thing was utterly unacceptable to him.

”Shen Hanxue, I’m telling you, you’d better not act recklessly. Do you know, by doing this, you are declaring war on Tuo Shi? Even if you don’t care about yourself, do you not care about your daughter?” Yin Zhengyuan threatened.

Hearing this, Mu Tian sneered inwardly, calling him a fool for not realizing the current context. How could Yin Zhengyuan still think he could threaten Shen Hanxue? How could this kind of mindset get him to the Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion?

With the strength Shen Hanxue had just shown, how could she possibly care about Yin Zhengyuan’s threats? What does it matter even if she declares war on Tuo Shi?

”Master, Yin Zhengyuan has always been arrogant. He probably long since forgot what compromise means,” Wu Wen said, looking at Yin Zhengyuan in distaste.

Mu Tian nodded, sighing again, ”You’re right. He’s always been used to others compromising with him. He’s never had to bow his head to anyone. It seems this time, Yin Zhengyuan will find it unforgettable for life.”

”Having been in that high position for too long, do you no longer know how to speak equally with others?” Shen Hanxue said indifferently.

To Yin Zhengyuan, in the entire Tuo Shi, except for Elder Wu, there’s probably no one who can stand on equal footing with him. Over time, he had forgotten what it felt like to lower his head.

Moreover, in his opinion, Shen Hanxue was just a worldly woman. The people of Tuo Shi were insignificant in his eyes, let alone someone like Shen Hanxue.

Therefore, even at this point, even when the situation seemed unfavorable to him, he still had not thought of compromising with Shen Hanxue.

”Shen Hanxue, you’d better think clearly, don’t you really worry about Tuo Shi taking action against you and your daughter?” Yin Zhengyuan said.

Shen Hanxue spoke indifferently, ”The top ten experts of Tuo Shi, even with you and the Pavilion Master of Shangyun Pavilion combined, cannot beat me. So what do I have to fear?”

These blunt words made Yin Zhengyuan full of indignation. He never expected that the woman before him would look down upon Tuo Shi so much!

But thinking seriously about it, given the power she displayed before, she might really be capable of such a feat. No wonder she’s so arrogant.

Having such formidable power naturally grants someone the right to be arrogant!

At this moment, Yin Lulu hurried over. In that instant she saw her father, whom she always regarded as a top expert, being trampled underfoot by Shen Hanxue, her expression became momentarily dazed.

To her knowledge, Yin Zhengyuan had always been one of the top experts of Tuo Shi, never defeated by anyone. But now, he was subdued under the foot of a woman, unable to fight back.

”Dad!” Yin Lulu almost broke down crying.

Yin Zhengyuan didn’t dare to look at his daughter, nor did he want Yin Lulu to see him in such a disgraceful state.

Yin Lulu rushed to Shen Hanxue, her expression fierce as she said, ”What are you to dare treat my father like this? He is the Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion! Let him go immediately!”

”In Tuo Shi, strength is revered. What does it matter if he’s the Pavilion Master of Lingxiao Pavilion? He cannot defeat me yet dared provoke me, naturally, he must pay the price!” Shen Hanxue replied indifferently.

Yin Lulu knew she couldn’t beat Shen Hanxue, and charging at her would yield no benefits. Suddenly, from the corner of her eye, she saw Ye Nianhai, a malicious light flashing in her eyes.

If she could control Ye Nianhai, then Shen Hanxue would certainly not stay arrogant.

But how to capture Ye Nianhai? She needed to think carefully, since Mu Tian and Wu Wen’s powers were also formidable, and with her Yellow Level abilities, she naturally couldn’t stand against Mu Tian and the others.

”Mu Tian, Wu Wen, what are you doing now? Are you really planning to betray Tuo Shi together with this woman? If you know what’s good for you, hand over Ye Nianhai to me, and I won’t hold today’s incident against you,” Yin Lulu said coldly to Mu Tian and the others.

Upon hearing this, Mu Tian smirked. Did Yin Lulu really plan to use Ye Nianhai to threaten Shen Hanxue? What wishful thinking. Given her words, it’s not excessive for Shen Hanxue to kill her outright!

”Yin Lulu, do you really have a death wish? You’ve come this far and still don’t know how to repent!” Wu Wen glanced at her disdainfully.

”Even if she’s powerful, she can’t contend against the entire Tuo Shi. Are you sure you want to side with her?” Yin Lulu gritted her teeth and said.

Mu Tian and Wu Wen would never betray Su Changfeng. They had already resolved to stand with Shen Hanxue, even if it meant betraying Tuo Shi, because their current achievements were entirely due to Su Changfeng.

Moreover, given the level of strength Shen Hanxue showed earlier, if they truly defected at this moment, they would certainly meet no favorable outcome.
