The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

”Mom, but where is Dad? Niannian misses Dad.” Ye Nianhai continued to ask.

”Niannian, be good. We’ll find Dad soon, but it seems Dad went to a very dangerous place. Are you scared?” Shen Hanxue asked.

”Dad isn’t scared, so Niannian definitely isn’t scared!” Ye Nianhai said without hesitation.

This secret chamber completely failed to awaken Shen Hanxue’s memory. Since that’s the case, staying longer held no meaning, so she quickly walked out of the mountain wall.

Outside, Elder Wu was still kneeling there. Seeing Shen Hanxue emerging like that, he asked blankly, ”You came out so quickly?”

”I went in and looked, but didn’t feel anything at all. Maybe you guessed wrong.”

Guessed wrong?

Elder Wu was stunned; how could this be possible?

If Shen Hanxue isn’t Yang Ling, how can we explain her memory and abilities? Maybe some ancient memories have been sealed and haven’t yet reached the time for awakening?

”So what are you planning now?” Elder Wu asked.

”Naturally, heading to the Outer Domain. Let’s go quickly.” Shen Hanxue said matter-of-factly.

On the other side, at a remote courtyard on the Tianyuan Continent.

Since You Meng was left in the courtyard, Qiutang Yu’er started seeing her as a competitor, always cautiously guarding, even intentionally showing off in front of Su Changfeng.

But compared to Qiutang Yu’er’s constant vigilance, You Meng appeared very calm, never attempting to compete with Qiutang Yu’er. It seemed she didn’t care at all, and when Qiutang Yu’er wanted to compete, she’d even step back voluntarily.

On this day, Su Changfeng sat in the pavilion with a face full of worries, sighing constantly. After noticing his odd behavior, You Meng walked to his side.

”What’s wrong? Are you hesitating about whether to go to Xingluo?” You Meng asked.

Su Changfeng had long been used to this girl’s inquisitive nature, but his worries weren’t because of Xingluo; rather, it was a strange feeling, as if he had a bad premonition.

”You’re overthinking it; it’s not about Xingluo.” Su Changfeng said.

”Not about Xingluo? Then what are you worried about?” You Meng asked with a puzzled look.

Su Changfeng shook his head. He couldn’t really express why, just felt that something was bound to happen, yet from his current situation, there was nothing for him to worry about.

After all, even the Emperor of Xingluo held him in high regard, ensuring there would be no trouble within Xingluo Territory.

But the feeling in his heart was too obvious to ignore.

Could it be something happened on Chen Qingqing’s side?

”How is my sister now; is she okay?” Su Changfeng looked at You Meng and asked. The main reason he allowed You Meng to stay was to get news about Chen Qingqing. If his premonition was about Chen Qingqing, she should know.

”She’s fine, so don’t worry.” You Meng immediately reassured.

Su Changfeng looked at You Meng with suspicion; this little girl suddenly appeared, her identity unknown, her origins unclear, though she seemed knowledgeable, leaving Su Changfeng unsure how to deal with her.

”I let you stay mainly because of my sister. If you deceive me, I won’t take it lightly.” Su Changfeng stated.

”Relax, she’s perfectly fine, and once I’m done playing, I’ll definitely take you to see her.” You Meng said with a smile.

”Done playing?” Su Changfeng asked, puzzled, looking at You Meng.

”My life is quite dull, so I decided to follow you around. If you make me happy, I don’t mind letting you see her sooner.” You Meng replied.

For a girl like You Meng, wanting to have fun shouldn’t be difficult, so why cling to him? That’s why Su Changfeng wouldn’t take her words seriously.

”Alright then, since you like fun, let’s leave Tianshui City quickly. There’s nothing interesting here.” Su Changfeng said.

”Where do you plan to go?” You Meng asked, filled with anticipation.

Lately, Su Changfeng had been researching the cities within Xingluo Territory, and since he didn’t need to search for Chen Qingqing anymore, naturally, he wanted to go somewhere more unique to learn more about the Tianyuan Continent.

After his research, he developed a strong interest in a place called Xinluo City. Rumor has it that Xinluo City is a hub of auctions, with hundreds of auction houses of various sizes.

There’s even a saying that anything can be auctioned off in Xinluo City; nothing can’t be done, just things you can’t imagine.

For this reason, Su Changfeng wanted to see what Xinluo City had to offer and could also check what goods were being traded here to better understand the world.

”I plan to visit Xinluo City.” Su Changfeng announced.

”Are you planning to buy some magic treasures or something?” You Meng asked curiously.

”No, just going to have a look. If I find something interesting, I might buy it, but only if I have the money.” Su Changfeng replied.

In his world, Su Changfeng had attended auctions and could acquire anything he liked without worrying about money, but things were different now. He didn’t have much money; even his normal living was covered by Wang Junyi’s help.

”When do you plan to leave?” You Meng asked.

”Tomorrow, I need to inform Wang Junyi in advance so he can prepare.” Su Changfeng responded.

You Meng nodded and continued, ”If you need money, just let me know. I’m quite wealthy.”

Su Changfeng looked skeptically at You Meng; her appearance hardly suggested affluence. Besides, he remembered that when she first appeared, she seemed like a little beggar. Now she claims to be wealthy; isn’t she exposing herself?

”Have you completely given up on hiding now? You haven’t forgotten how you first appeared before me, have you?” Su Changfeng commented.

”Why? Can’t beggars have money? Can’t rich people be beggars?” You Meng retorted.

Su Changfeng was at a loss for words. Generally, only those without money would be beggars. If someone was wealthy, why beg?

However, based on his past experiences, beggars might not necessarily be poor. In his world, many begged deliberately, treating it as a job. This isn’t something strange.

”I hope your identity doesn’t surprise me too much; otherwise, I might not be able to handle it.” Su Changfeng joked.
