The Crazy Son-In-Law

Xiao Shun took a few slow steps forward, positioning himself as a mere observer among the crowd. His first impression of the man named Ye Bang was that he was very powerful, but he had never even heard of the “ancient martial art of Hong Quan” that was mentioned. His master rarely spoke of Riverdale, only mentioning that it was a place where dragons hid and the overall strength of the cultivators there was much greater than inland, at least when the “hidden sects” did not reveal themselves. The practitioners active in the eyes of the public in Wradeogon could not represent the pinnacle, which belonged to the ancient sects hidden among the famous mountains and rivers, rarely emerging.

Could this young man be a disciple of one of those old monsters? Otherwise, how could he dare to be so arrogant towards Qiu Zhan, an “Anterior” level master? With this thought in mind, Xiao Shun immediately dismissed it. After all, disciples of the “hidden sects” were rarely so aggressive; it was more likely he was a disciple of some master who had moved to Riverdale in the past. Nodding to himself, Xiao Shun felt more certain of his guess and his eyes unconsciously drifted towards Xiang Qianghua. To have such a skilled person under his command, Xiang must hold significant power in Riverdale.

The crowd of onlookers was growing. With many from Riverdale attending the event with Xiang Qianghua today, a verbal skirmish naturally ensued.

“Holy shit, that Ye Bang is so arrogant? He’s probably just a charlatan. Mr. Nie is a Veteran of the Old School Society, how dare such a nobody challenge him?”

“Idiot, what do you know? You country folks have no idea about our Riverdale’s might. The Old School Society is nothing over there!”

“Fuck you, old farmer, you think your broken place can compete with the bright moon?”

“Big shot from Riverdale 14K, you idiot, dare to come over and try?”

“I’ll banana your ass, I’m the head of Eastbrook Kindergarten, you wouldn’t even need me to act, those three or four-year-old kids would take care of you, you fool!”

Banana Guy, hearing this, was grinding his teeth in anger, his hand shaking as he held his glass, veins popping on his hands. At that moment, a burly man came over, cursing loudly and stood next to the furious Banana Guy, scornfully saying,

“Your societies were only impressive when not under British control. Afterward, which wasn’t hiding like a turtle? I was born in the wrong era; otherwise, a single slash would have settled you lot!”

“Who the hell are you?” Banana Guy glared, sizing up the burly man. Because this was the mainland, he dared not use Riverdale’s methods here; otherwise, the place would have turned into a river of blood by now.

Of course, the presence of this burly man gave him a strong sense of crisis, likely a tough character from the same rough path. Banana Guy prepared to gather information for potential revenge later!

While Banana Guy was plotting internally, the burly man chuckled, “Heh, I don’t change my name or seat; I’m Zheng Yingxiong, president of the Eastbrook Sun and Moon Guild!”

Then, a Hong Kong big brother interjected, “A real hero? If I went up against you in Riverdale, I’d beat you into a bear!”This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

Unable to stand it, a lackey by Zheng’s side roared, “Fuck your mother, how dare you talk to my boss like that?”

“I’ll fuck your boss and your whole family, you idiot!” retorted the big brother.

“I’ll kill you, you bastard!” The lackey roared, grabbing an empty wine bottle from a nearby table, ready to fight. His temper was incredibly fiery.

Seeing this, the people from Riverdale were not about to just stand there; they began looking for handy weapons.

Ironically, while Qiu Zhan and Ye Bang had not even started fighting, the two groups of onlookers were ready to settle their scores. These street folks really couldn’t keep their cool!

Xiang Qianghua, seeing the situation spiraling out of control, immediately gestured for the clan leaders to calm down. “Gentlemen, don’t be rash!” His words were effective. Banana Guy and the others, though reluctantly, calmed down and did not let the conflict escalate.

Xiao Shun squeezed out of the crowd and stood next to Zheng Yingxiong, patting his shoulder. “Brother Zheng, we came here to eat and drink, not to fight. Let’s have our brothers put away their weapons.”

“Since Mr. Xiao has spoken, we naturally dare not disobey.” Zheng Yingxiong nodded, then signaled his followers not tobe impulsive. The Sun and Moon Guild was actually privately owned by Ye Nantian, and now that the Ye family had pledged allegiance to the “New School Society,” the guild was naturally incorporated into Qing Zun.

At this point, whispers started among the crowd. “Who is this guy who just stopped Brother Zheng with a single word?” “You must be out of the loop. This young man is the future big shot of Eastbrook, the leader of the ‘New School Society.’ I heard from the grapevine that the downfall of Inspector He and others today was because of him!” “I heard the same, and just this afternoon, all the guilds in Eastbrook were renamed to Qing Zun Guilds, which are under Mr. Xiao’s control!”

The events of Eastbrook today were the topic of much discussion, and everything they said was true. Xiao Shun had taken firm control of Eastbrook in less than a day; now, his word was law there. His influence was unparalleled, far surpassing that of Harrow.

“Hehe, a bunch of fools, only good at making noise!” Ye Bang sneered coldly, scanning the surroundings disdainfully when his gaze fell upon Zheng Yingxiong and the others, showing extreme contempt. “Whose dog is this, running around biting people without a leash?”

Haitang spoke up sharply. Now, not only was she a high-ranking member of the Old School Society, but she was also one of Wradeogon’s own, and seeing her compatriots so belittled, she shared their outrage. “To defeat you, I only need three moves!” Ye Bang said disdainfully, giving Haitang a scornful look.

Hearing this, Haitang’s gaze sharpened, and her fighting spirit surged. Her cultivation was on par with Gu Baiyi, both being “half-step Anterior realm” practitioners. Faced with such provocation, she could hardly stay seated.

Seeing this, Xiang Qianghua walked over to Qiu Zhan, laughing heartily. “Ah, the vigor of youth… Mr. Qiu, since the opportunity is rare, why don’t we have a friendly exchange match?” Qiu Zhan looked deeply at him, feeling like he had walked into a trap. Everything today seemed orchestrated by this scoundrel, and his purpose was clear after a slight thought. Clearly, the cultivators from Riverdale were looking to make their mark on the mainland, and the Old School Society was just a stepping stone for them to gain fame!

Qiu Zhan disliked the feeling of being led by the nose, but now he was in a difficult position. If he refused, it would inevitably damage the prestige of the Old School Society. “Veteran?” Haitang glanced at Qiu Zhan beside her, his eyes flickering.
