The Crazy Son-In-Law

The sun in the depths of winter always disappears early behind the mountain slope. Even though it was only half past five in the afternoon, the sky was already a murky gray.

On Apex Peak, the twilight had already descended, but at the foot of the mountain, the lights were shining brightly. Adorned by the lights, “Apex Academy” seemed to be covered by a layer of misty brilliance, looking breathtakingly beautiful.

On the vast playground, there was a bustling crowd at this moment. Despite the cold outdoor temperature, everyone sat upright.

The person currently giving a speech on the platform was Song Qingzhou. Most businessmen in Harrow did not know the origins of this person, and their curiosity about the vice principal only intensified.

But when someone mentioned that he was a big shot from the capital government, everyone quickly straightened up in their seats.

Later on, these businessmen secretly decided to inquire about the conditions for joining this school tomorrow, hoping to climb up to such a high branch.

Xiao Shun had already noticed the eager crowd below the stage. The reason he appointed Song Qingzhou as vice principal was actually very clear – he simply wanted to send a signal externally.

And now, it seemed that this move had paid off handsomely!

Song Qingzhou’s appearance had won over a large group of businessmen, and presumably there would be enthusiastic participation in the school’s sponsorship work in the future.

Next, it was time for him to win over the cultivators!

“A month from now, I will host the first pellet trading conference at the ‘New School Society’s Pellet Pavilion. Everyone is welcome to participate enthusiastically. I guarantee that the pellets sold that day will be cheaper and more effective than those bought on the market!”

As soon as the words fell, the whole room was in an uproar. A month later, it would be the annual spring pellet auction hosted by the Old School Society, and wasn’t Xiao Shun clearly trying to compete openly or secretly with the Old School Society?

What was even more astonishing was that Xiao Shun had openly declared that the pellets he would sell would be more cost-effective than those of the Old School Society.

At this thought, everyone was eagerly looking forward to the “pellet trading conference.”

Of course, many people sneered at this, as the “New School Society” was still a far cry compared to the Old School Society.

With the strong support of the Zhou family, even though Xiao Shun had the addition of “Hanging Flask Inn,” he was still no match for the Old School Society.

At the same time, a group of people suddenly walked into the school gate, with the man in front wearing a striking purple suit.

Immediately, the man in the purple suit spoke loudly, “Mr. Xiao, am I late?”

At the sound of his voice, everyone was shocked. How could he appear here?

Just as everyone was dumbfounded, Xiao Shun on the stage laughed heartily, “Ha ha, Mr. Zhou, welcome. Please excuse our oversight!”

At this moment, someone whispered, “My goodness, how did Zhou Tianheng end up here?”

Another person replied, “It’s obvious, since he can appear in such an important event, it means that the Zhou family and the Old School Society have fallen out. Look at the group of people following Zhou Tianheng, aren’t they all from the Zhou family?”

Upon hearing this, everyone was astonished.

Zhou Tianheng had completely cut ties with the Old School Society and joined the “New School Society”! What prompted him to make this change was the defeat of Gu Baiyi on the “Hero Cup,” which made him see Xiao Shun’s strength and thus decided to join him without any reservations.

The unveiling ceremony at Apex Academy continued amidst jubilation.

Meanwhile, the Old School Society was in a gloomy state. Water stains appeared at the feet of Nie Jiuchong, and several pieces of white porcelain shards were scattered all over the floor.

In the not-so-large meeting room, there was a thought-provoking atmosphere.

After a while, Nie Jiuchong spoke coldly, “Is it confirmed?”

“Just now, a scout reported seeing Zhou Tianheng and his family heading to the unveiling ceremony at the school held by Xiao Shun. This information is definitely true!” The branch head replied, wiping the fine sweat on his forehead, his expression uneasy.

With a bang, a priceless yellow rosewood tea table turned into a pile of debris under Nie Jiuchong’s relentless palm. Waves of forceful energy smashed against the branch head, making him feel like he was in a storm.

Then, he heard Nie Jiuchong’s deep voice, “Why did we receive the news so late?”This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

The branch head cautiously reported, “Recently, due to dispatching a large number of members to Cliffside, the surveillance on the Zhou family was significantly reduced, and Zhou Tianheng took advantage of the opportunity to escape with his family!”

The issue at the Cliffside medicinal garden led Southeast Old School Society to dispatch a large number of troops to search, but there was still no progress, only futile searches in the rugged mountains.

It was precisely because Zhou Tianheng seized this rare opportunity, taking advantage of Old School Society’s unpreparedness to break through the encirclement and escape to join Xiao Shun, that he managed to do so. Otherwise, he would not have been able to make his way through the tight blockade to join Xiao Shun.

Nie Jiuchong was in a difficult situation himself, and was now extremely bitter. He could not contain his anger and said, “Xiao Shun has repeatedly struck our forces!”

At this moment, the branch head had an instant thought.

” Branch head, why don’t we make a big scene at Cliffside? As long as we can lure Ning Zhiyuan and his disciples back to Cliffside, I don’t believe Xiao Shun will sit idly by. When the three of them arrive, we can capture them all at once!”

Upon hearing this, Nie Jiuchong was slightly surprised, “What do you mean?”

“Send someone to warn Ning Zhiyuan. If he does not return to Cliffside, let’s dismantle his ‘Hanging Flask Inn.’ Considering Ning Zhiyuan’s respectful and obedient nature, he will definitely not disregard this matter!”

At this point, the branch head paused momentarily, then smirked, “Hehe, Xiao Shun probably already knows about the medicinal garden incident and will most likely accompany them. Then we can capture them all at Cliffside!”

It had to be said, this person was truly sly and cunning, having a profound understanding of his opponents’ psychology!

“Ha ha…” Nie Jiuchong suddenly burst into hearty laughter, obviously very pleased with his subordinate’s proposal. He couldn’t help but pat the branch head’s shoulder heavily and praised, “Your idea is excellent. Let’s do as you said. I will send someone to warn Ning Zhiyuan tomorrow!”

The school’s unveiling ceremony went very smoothly. Because Zhou Tianheng had unexpectedly changed sides and joined the “New School Society” midway through, it left many forces in shock.

As a result, many who were previously undecided decisively left the Old School Society and wholeheartedly joined Xiao Shun’s organization.
