The Crazy Son-In-Law

Chapter 778: Facing the Battle Alone



Retracting his gaze, Xiao Shun slowly walked back to the sofa.

Ordinary Gu practitioners posed no threat to him.

Even a master of Gu techniques was not to be feared when he activated his Dan fire.

As for someone like Nie Jiu Chong, who had already been defeated by him, there was nothing to worry about.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but laugh, “Haha, for Master Nie to come and face me this time, it must have taken a lot of courage!”

That night, at the entrance of Silvermeadows Village.

In the pitch-black night, Xiao Shun sat alone on a large rock. Behind him, Silvermeadows Village was brightly lit.

The Gu practitioners among the Meadowfolk were on high alert, watching the area outside the village intently.

Elder Er glanced at Miao Xiuyun, who looked serious, and suggested, “Chief, perhaps you should assist Leader Xiao. San and I have recovered about seventy to eighty percent of our strength. Although we don’t have our life Gu, we can still handle ordinary threats with our poison mist.”

Elder San nodded in agreement. “Yes, Leader Xiao is facing them alone. Even though his skills are unparalleled, two fists can’t fight four hands. Moreover, this time there’s also the Old School Society’s master!”

Miao Xiuyun shook his head seriously. “Leader Xiao said you are still in recovery and shouldn’t act rashly. I can handle things here at the village.”

“Sigh!”

The two elders sighed simultaneously but did not continue to persuade him.

Then they both looked at Xiao Shun’s back with a hint of worry in their eyes but felt powerless.

Unlike Miao Xiuyun and the others who were ready for battle, Xiao Shun’s mood could be described as calm and unperturbed, as if what was about to happen was no big deal.

Suddenly, a large red glow appeared in the forest ahead, like numerous torches moving toward them.

Seeing this, Xiao Shun’s lips curved into an amused smile.

Soon after, he saw a large group of people emerge from the dense forest, holding torches and appearing not far in front of him.

There were about twenty people in this group. Each one had a calm expression as they slowly advanced toward Silvermeadows.

Suddenly, the leader of the group paused and looked in Xiao Shun’s direction.

Huang Shan noticed and said solemnly, “Master Nie, tonight we must eliminate this scoundrel!”

Nie Jiu Chong laughed boldly. “Haha, with more than ten martial practitioners and four Gu masters against just one Xiao Shun, it will be easy!”

With that, his eyes filled with fighting spirit as he walked toward the person who had brought him endless humiliation.

The group stopped about ten meters from Xiao Shun. An elder from Old School Society shouted angrily.

“Xiao Shun! Do you know your death is near?”

“With just you?” Xiao Shun sneered.

Huang Shan glanced at him coldly. “Tonight our entire Old School Society has come out in force. With additional help from top Meadowfolk experts, how dare you be so arrogant?”

As soon as he finished speaking, other Old School Society elders began cursing Xiao Shun.

It was clear that this lineup gave them great confidence.

They remembered how confident they were at Cliffside before being thoroughly defeated by Xiao Shun’s strength.

It seemed they hadn’t learned their lesson!

Xiao Shun smiled helplessly and jumped down from the rock. His gaze swept over the excited elders opposite him before settling on one person.

“Master Nie, long time no see.”

Nie Jiu Chong nodded expressionlessly. “Indeed, long time no see.”

Then he shifted his tone and looked gloomily at Xiao Shun’s calm expression. “Ever since returning from Cliffside last time, I’ve been consumed by thoughts of revenge. I didn’t expect the opportunity to come so soon!”

He had come with excitement in his heart. With two Meadowfolk chiefs and two elders assisting him now, he was confident in his revenge plan.

“Haha, an opportunity?”

Xiao Shun spoke nonchalantly as if uninterested.

“Miao Xiuyun! Come out now! If you don’t want us to destroy Silvermeadows tonight, bring out your four elders immediately!” Miao A’man shouted angrily toward Silvermeadows Village.

Xiao Shun shook his head and advised him calmly. “Stop shouting. With me here tonight, none of you will get inside.”

His words made everyone opposite him furious.

“Arrogant!”

“Tonight I’ll make this kid kneel!”

“I can already imagine his guts being spilled!”

“Xiao Shun! This is originally a matter between us Meadowfolk. But you dared to interfere as an outsider and now want to take over our Meadowfolk? Such ambition! With Master Nie here tonight, let’s see how you can cause trouble!” Miao A’man said coldly.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Xiao Shun replied indifferently. “My New School Society’s vision has always been to unite all practitioners. You Gu practitioners are no exception. If you realize your mistake now and join us willingly, you’ll suffer less.”

Miao Wu laughed disdainfully. “Haha! With Master Nie here now and you still so arrogant? You’re courting death!”

Xiao Shun didn’t respond but remained composed.

“Everyone! Enough talk! Let’s begin!”

Hearing this made Nie Jiu Chong and others’ expressions change slightly.

Could he really intend to fight alone?

Even though Xiao Shun once fought like a god at Cliffside against Old School Society members effortlessly…

But today there were two Gu masters equal to Nie Jiu Chong present; how could he still be so arrogant?

For a moment everyone felt uncertain.

“Tonight will end what started that day!” Nie Jiu Chong said as he slowly drew his golden blade from behind him.

As soon as its golden light flashed outwards like sharp blades cutting through wind softly blowing across their faces making it feel more intense than ever before…

Xiao Shun stood tall letting all that blade intent wash over him while keeping that faint smile on his lips…

“Haha! Master Nie sure knows how to spend money easily forging such fine golden blades!”

“My blade?” Nie Jiu Chong asked half-squinting eyes remembering last time abandoning it unwillingly hoping someday retrieving it again…

But alas… Xiao Shun’s answer shattered those hopes…

“Melted!” Xiao Shun chuckled lightly recalling how he immediately melted down that precious blade forging new weapons rewarding loyal New School Society members…

Nie Jiu Chong felt rage boiling within unable containing anymore lifting weapon pointing directly at calm-looking Xiao Shun face full killing intent…

“Huang Shan lead Meadowfolk elders attack Silvermeadows Village! I’ll handle killing Xiao Shun along remaining chiefs!”

“Yes!” Huang Shan responded leading others charging towards Meadowfolk behind Xiao Shun…

Among them were Miao Song and Miao Yi too!

Clearly pre-planned strategy unfolding…
