The Crazy Son-In-Law

“If you want me to submit, you must show corresponding strength. Right now, you’re still far from enough!” Louis roared, and immediately, a crimson light surged around him, obviously pushing the functionality of the spirit pattern engraving to its extreme.

He was not someone who liked to submit. Even though Xiao Shun’s current strength was impressive enough to shock anyone, it still couldn’t completely sway this top assassin!

Watching Louis’s increasingly high spirits, Xiao Shun smiled playfully. “Still not enough?”

As the words fell, Xiao Shun’s momentum suddenly soared, his iron fist tearing through the already tense atmosphere, gradually approaching Louis amidst his utterly bewildered expression.

“Roar!”

A dragon’s roar faintly sounded, and the fist, like a raging dragon emerging from the sea, with an air of disdain for the world, roared towards Louis.

“Ah!”

Faced with this scene, Louis shouted loudly, fiercely striking out in an attempt to block Xiao Shun’s imposing fist. Yet, his attempt was futile even though he tried his best to resist.

The fist, with boundless momentum, drove straight in, finally coming to a stop firmly at Louis’s chest. The previously boundlessly ferocious momentum quieted at that moment.

“Now, is it enough?” Xiao Shun looked at Louis, his eyes filled with a profound sense of amusement.

Pale-faced, Louis stared at Xiao Shun. At that moment, he felt the breath of death! The feeling was so real, as if it could plunge him into hell in an instant.

This was the first time he had experienced this feeling since he began his career, and it also gave him a different perspective on Xiao Shun’s strength. This man was very strong, and he was far from being his match!

Seeing the sardonic expression on Xiao Shun’s face, Louis said lightly, “I only admire the strong, and you are far stronger than me.”

With that, he completely retracted the crimson light that covered his body, and his spirits, once high and mighty, now turned feeble and exhausted.

Seeing this, Xiao Shun nodded with a light laugh, then withdrew his fist from Louis’s chest, saying confidently, “Heh, you won’t regret your decision today, as being an assassin is far less beneficial than what you could gain by being by my side.”

“I only care about how to make myself stronger,” Louis said expressionlessly.

“It seems that your personality is quite similar to Zhu Que’s. I believe you two will have a lot in common in the future. Work hard, young man. With me, you will gain the strength you have dreamed of, I assure you,” Xiao Shun patted Louis on the shoulder.

He wasn’t boasting. Since he could make Zhu Que stronger, he could also help Louis reach new heights, provided that the other was genuinely willing to form a mutually beneficial alliance.

Now was the time to test Louis. Since the other had already yielded, Xiao Shun naturally saw no need to be polite and instead went straight to the point that concerned him the most.

“What’s the deal with the spirit pattern engraving inside your body?”

“It’s a form of affirmation from the Pope towards me,” Louis replied.

Xiao Shun was puzzled by Louis’s words, so he asked for clarification, “What do you mean?”

“Each time I complete a mission for the Pope, he has an elderly man from the East draw some lines on my body. Initially, I didn’t know what these lines meant, but when the pattern was completed, I understood what it represented.”

Louis had already experienced the power of the spirit pattern engraving the first time it was activated. It was because of this powerful skill that he was able to single-handedly annihilate a special operations team from the United States on an island in the Pacific during a mission.

“So, someone helped engrave the spirit pattern on you?” Xiao Shun noticed a certain figure mentioned by Louis and became particularly interested.

“That’s right,” Louis nodded. “I don’t know much about that person. He only taught me how to activate the spirit pattern engraving. Apart from that, I know nothing about him. However, judging by the Pope’s attitude toward this person, he must be a very powerful individual.”

An individual whom even the powerful Pope treated with great respect must possess remarkable strength.

Seeing that Louis knew nothing about the mysterious person, Xiao Shun couldn’t help but feel disappointed. Nevertheless, he quickly asked another question.

“How do you activate the spirit pattern, then?”

When he first clashed with Louis, he had already learned that the other was able to activate the spirit pattern without relying on spiritual energy, a discovery that had astonished him.

“It’s all thanks to this thing.” With that, Louis tore off a pendant hanging from his chest, then broke it and passed a piece to Xiao Shun.

As he looked at the small piece handed to him, Xiao Shun’s expression changed drastically. “This is…”Louis glanced at Xiao Shun, who was dumbfounded, and explained, “Relying on this thing, I can activate the spirit pattern design, but there is a time limit. If it’s activated for too long, it could endanger my life.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Shun murmured, “Dark Gold can actually activate the spirit pattern!”

He had never heard of such a thing before. Even when his master initially taught him the technique of spirit pattern engraving, he had only mentioned that spiritual energy was the sole way to activate the spirit pattern, never once mentioning Dark Gold!

“You call this thing Dark Gold? That name seems quite fitting!” Louis said to himself.

Subsequently, Xiao Shun asked Louis some more questions, but did not receive any answers.

The clues seemed to have been completely cut off, but he wasn’t particularly disappointed. Instead, he thought that if he had the opportunity in the future, he would go to see the Pope of Caesar’s Voice and find out more about the specific situation. He also intended to inquire about the mysterious individual.

An entity possessing advanced spirit patterns and Dark Gold was indeed terrifying!

“Let’s go, let’s head back,” Xiao Shun said as he returned the small piece of Dark Gold to Louis and slowly walked towards the edge of the small forest.

Observing this, Louis was puzzled. “Aren’t you going to give me an acupuncture treatment?”

“There’s no need for that,” Xiao Shun waved his hand.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

He didn’t need to doubt others; it was his consistent style. Moreover, he had already known that Louis was a principled person. Now that the other had submitted, there was no need to be on guard at every turn.

He’s a confident fellow indeed! Louis smiled slightly, impressed by Xiao Shun’s current demeanor.

He was truly a principled person, and his principles weren’t based on relationships but on those who possessed formidable strength.

The two walked back to the villa side by side. Zhu Que, who saw them approaching, had a change in her expression for a moment, but quickly resumed her usual demeanor.
