The Crazy Son-In-Law

“Master Xiao, talk is cheap, why should we believe what you’re saying?” A disdainful voice rang out from the crowd.

At that moment, standing next to Xiao Shun, Yang Tiancai whispered in Xiao Shun’s ear, “Master, I know this guy. He’s a nobody from the Old School Society in the capital. Most likely, he was sent here by the Old School Society to gather information and cause trouble!”

As he said, the man who had just spoken on stage was indeed sent by the High Chieftain to cause chaos and spy on the New School Society.

His name was Hu Haitian, a henchman of the High Chieftain, and a staunch supporter of the Old School Society.

Of course, very few people present knew his true identity. If Yang Tiancai hadn’t had a business deal with him before, most would not have recognized him.

Meanwhile, several others began to question what Xiao Shun had just said.

Needless to say, these “righteous” folks probably had the same intentions.

Xiao Shun did not lower himself to the level of Hu Haitian and the others, and sneered, “If you don’t believe me, why bother coming here at all?”

After hearing this, Hu Haitian showed no embarrassment. Instead, he brazenly replied, “Master Xiao’s words are unreasonable. If you want us to join the New School Society, then you must present something substantial, not just talk!”

Indeed, he came prepared.

With a moment of internal disdain, Xiao Shun was about to say something, but then caught sight of a swaying figure entering the venue.

In an instant, his gaze hardened, and he disappeared from the stage.

Seeing this, many cultivators who were not participating in the “Hero Cup” competition were shocked. No wonder he was able to defeat Gu Baiyi with such strength.

Just as everyone was horrified, Xiao Shun’s tall figure reappeared on the stage, accompanied by a feeble old man.

“Master!” Even the disciples of the North Club, such as Luo Qianyi, recognized the old man and rushed to the stage, their faces filled with fear.

“Is this… Master Qin?” The rest of the people were dumbfounded.

Qin Zhenhuan’s strength in the Old School Society could be considered top-notch. So why was he severely injured now?

That was the first question that came to many people’s minds.

But for this question, Ye Xun had an answer. After all, he had heard some news before, and combining it with Qin Zhenhuan’s situation, the facts were clear.

Old School Society had made their move; they had chosen Northleap as their first target, aiming at the strongest person in the area!

In an instant, he broke into a cold sweat!

“Damn, energy pellets?” Suddenly, a cultivator in the audience exclaimed.

In an instant, countless eyes turned towards the stage, then fell into a daze.

Xiao Shun was holding a pale golden pill in his hand, radiating a faint luster under the light, looking exquisite.

Energy pellets, this was the rarest and most valuable pellets on the market, with powerful healing effects. Even the Old School Society couldn’t produce more than a few in a year.

And now, Xiao Shun casually took one out. It was truly unbelievable!

While everyone was in shock, Xiao Shun uttered an earth-shattering sentence.

“Senior Qin has suffered severe internal injuries. One energy pellet may not be enough to heal him. Linger, bring out the spare furnace. I need to immediately refine a concentration pellet to assist in his recovery!”

“Master, did I hear you correctly? Did Master Xiao just say he will refine a concentration pellet on the spot?” A young man in the audience looked at his master in astonishment.

His master hesitated before nodding, “It seems so!”

This master and disciple were ordinary cultivators, like Yang Tiancai, making a living by refining pellets for others.

For them, a concentration pellet was a legendary elixir! Even ordinary cultivators knew the value of concentration pellets, let alone those from the Old School Society.

The people in the audience were all in disbelief, looking at Xiao Shun with incredulity.

Refine a concentration pellet on the spot? Isn’t that too thrilling?

Even the alchemy masters of the Old School Society couldn’t easily achieve that. But Xiao Shun and his disciples seemed determined to shock the audience to death.

Song Linger walked over with the furnace, making a bombastic statement.

“Master, first help this senior with acupuncture therapy. Leave the matter of the concentration pellet to me and my junior brother. Our combined furnace and flames are enough to produce one concentration pellet.”

Their performance was supposed to be at the banquet to impress the undecided guests with the New School Society’s alchemy techniques. Unfortunately, the show had to start early as Qin Zhenhuan appeared with severe injuries.

The furnace was ready, and the herbs were prepared. With everything set, Yang Tiancai and Song Linger immediately started refining the pellet.

Xiao Shun still had some confidence in his disciples. Even though the concentration pellet was a high-level pellet, if Song Linger said it was possible, he didn’t think too much about it.

He immediately used the Ghost Door Thirteen Needles to treat the unconscious Qin Zhenhuan.

Qin Zhenhuan’s injuries were severe. Only through the combined effects of the energy pellets and concentration pellets could his damaged tendons and meridians be repaired. Xiao Shun retrieved the silver needles after expelling the violent inner energy in Qin’s body.

Seeing this, Luo Qianyi and others who had been anxious on the sidelines finally spoke up, “Master Xiao, what’s wrong with my master?”

“He has had his tendons and meridians injured,” Xiao Shun furrowed his brows.

Luo Qianyi was angry, “My master has never offended anyone, and his martial arts skills are strong. How could he have been severely injured by someone else?”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Shun revealed his speculation, “The one who made the move should be Nie Jiuchong.”

With that, Luo Qianyi had nothing more to say. He then led many disciples of the North Club to kneel in front of Xiao Shun.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Please, Master Xiao, save my master!”

“Get up, I’m already treating him,” Xiao Shun said, pulling Luo Qianyi to his feet.

Up to this point, the audience did not know what was happening. Due to Xiao Shun and Luo Qianyi’s hushed conversation earlier, the audience had not heard the content of their discussion.

However, the audience’s attention was not on them; instead, they were focused on Yang Tiancai and Song Linger, who were busy refining pellets.

Ten minutes passed, and a faint scent of herbs wafted from the furnace.

In less than a moment, the entire venue was filled with this refreshing fragrance!
