The Strongest Urban Son-in-law

Chapter 154: Chapter 152 Reasons

”Damn, Chief, you’re too despicable. We said you should have lost already, but you held on, and it turns out you used some tricks...” Everyone looked at Cha Fu with disdain in their eyes.

”Get lost!” Cha Fu shouted, then helplessly looked at Ye Feng, ”Brother Ye Feng, you really are amazing. Indeed, the water in the cup has reached its limit. You’ve seen through my tactic. I admit defeat. If I were to put a marble in it, the water in the cup would definitely overflow.”

Ye Feng nodded. Lu Kang, Li Xue’er, and Li Linfeng watched Ye Feng excitedly, never having imagined that Ye Feng could achieve victory under such circumstances.

”Dad, you’re terrible at this. Aren’t you the one who claims to be the gambling freak of our White Miao Clan? Even with using tricks, you still can’t beat Brother Ye Feng. Maybe you should stop calling yourself a gambling freak,” Little Ai joked as she looked at Cha Fu.

Cha Fu grumbled, ”What do you know? Gambling, there is no such thing as being undefeated. If there were, it would definitely involve tricks. It’s just a pity Brother Ye Feng saw through my method. But I still don’t understand, Brother Ye Feng, how did you do it? The water in the cup really was at its limit!”

Ye Feng smiled slightly. Now that he had won, there was no need to hide anything.

Ye Feng lifted the cup and pointed to its bottom, ”What is this?”

Everyone looked toward the bottom of the cup and saw a melted chocolate mark.

Seeing the mark, everyone still didn’t understand and curiously asked, ”That looks like a melted chocolate mark, but what does that matter?”

But at the sight of the mark, Cha Fu suddenly realized, ”So that’s it, I understand now!”

Little Ai, looking puzzled, said, ”Dad, what do you understand exactly? Can you say it all at once without keeping us in suspense?”

Cha Fu explained, ”That’s why Brother Ye Feng wanted to eat chocolate! He had already put the chocolate under the cup when he was inspecting it. The chocolate pieces were very small, which caused the cup to tilt slightly rather than being flat on the surface. This made the cup hold less water. We all thought that Ye Feng wanted to use the sunlight to evaporate the water in the cup, but we were wrong. Brother Ye Feng wanted to let the chocolate under the cup melt from the sunlight. Once melted, the cup would sit vertically on the stone table again, allowing it to hold more water!”

”That’s right, that’s exactly what happened. Chief Cha Fu is very clever,” Ye Feng said with a slight smile.

”Clever... no matter how clever, I still lost to you...” Chief Cha Fu said helplessly.

”So that’s it, Brother Ye Feng is really amazing. He had everything prepared from the beginning!” Li Xue’er excitedly looked at Ye Feng, her eyes shining with admiration, turning into Ye Feng’s super little fan girl.

Everyone greatly admired Ye Feng, not only for his strength but also for his intelligence.

After all, in the beginning, no one knew the rules of the competition Cha Fu would use.

Yet, Ye Feng instantly came up with a solution as soon as he understood the rules, just in case.

If the competition had been about simply tossing marbles into the water cup, Ye Feng was utterly confident. But if it involved tricks, Cha Fu was well-prepared.

And in such a tense situation, Ye Feng was able to prepare on the spot, leaving everyone impressed.

”Amazing! Amazing!” Cha Fu kept saying, ”Brother Ye Feng, I am completely convinced by my loss this time. Tomorrow, I’ll have Little Ai take you to the Holy Land. You can take a Spirit Stone from inside.”

Upon hearing Cha Fu’s words, Ye Feng’s expression became serious as he looked at Chief Cha Fu, ”Chief Cha Fu, now that we’ve gotten familiar, let me be frank about the purpose of my visit.”

Seeing Ye Feng so serious, everyone looked at him with curiosity.

Ye Feng said, ”Chief Cha Fu, do you know the value of Chiyou Divine Cave?”

Cha Fu nodded, ”Of course, we only take one Spirit Stone from it each year, and it already makes all our people well-fed and happy. Its value is unimaginable.”

”If you only took one Spirit Stone each year, that would be fine. But now Chiyou Divine Cave might have been targeted...”

”Oh? What do you mean, Brother Ye Feng?” Cha Fu furrowed his brows.

”Actually, I’ve come on behalf of Dragon Country. Chiyou Divine Cave, within the territory of Dragon Country, is not only the property of the Miao Clan but also a precious mine of Dragon Country. I’ve come here representing Dragon Country. Dragon Country doesn’t want to take your Holy Land, but instead hopes to mine it with you, and jointly protect it.

And that Fu Kun, he used a Flash Bomb that came from Country Y. I suspect Country Y has set its sights on Chiyou Divine Cave. I hope that after we enter, you’ll be willing to cede Chiyou Divine Cave. Dragon Country will not only help you drive away foreigners but also mine together with you,” Ye Feng said solemnly.

Cha Fu helplessly shook his head, ”Ah... Brother Ye Feng, I had already figured your identity wasn’t simple. I didn’t expect you to come on behalf of Dragon Country. Do you think we really care about the Holy Land? Although it’s called a Holy Land, it has been thousands of years. Our Miao Clan’s witchcraft and heritage have been lost countless times, and we no longer possess our ancestors’ mindset.

If it were possible to mine, we would have done it years ago. The only reason we take just one Spirit Stone each year is that there’s another entity in the Holy Land. As long as it exists, mining Chiyou Divine Cave is off the table!”

”What is it?” Ye Feng furrowed his brow, curious.

”That’s our taboo, we also dare not mention it. It’s a symbol of bad luck. As long as it exists, we won’t mention its name. Brother Ye Feng, if you really want to mine the veins of Chiyou Divine Cave, I don’t refuse, but the condition is that you must be able to destroy that thing. If it disappears, our White Miao Clan will cooperate in everything,” Cha Fu said.

After all, Cha Fu also felt that foreigners had targeted Chiyou Divine Cave. Rather than having it stolen, better to share it with Dragon Country.
