The City's Strongest Son-in-law
Chapter 1195 - 1194: Excessive Ego
"Yin Lulu, stop dreaming, you can’t beat me!" Su Changfeng sighed and said.
But at this moment, Yin Lulu was clearly resolved. She was determined to rely on her own strength to crush Su Changfeng.
She had never craved strength like this before, because only then could she stomp Su Changfeng underfoot.
At this moment, a figure hurriedly rushed over, clearly an assistant to Elder Wu.
He went to Su Changfeng’s place but didn’t find anyone after looking around. Anxious and panicked, he fortunately inquired about Su Changfeng’s whereabouts since Su was already well-known in Tuo Shi.
"Su Changfeng, what are you doing here?" the assistant asked.
Su Changfeng certainly wouldn’t reveal his purpose to others. Mu Tian and Wu Wen were his assurance while he stayed here, so even if he didn’t safely return from the Outer Domain, there was no need for Shen Hanxue to worry too much.
"You were looking for me?" Su Changfeng asked.
The assistant glanced at Yin Lulu. Back then, this woman openly expressed her murderous intent towards Su Changfeng, and that led to her current situation. She brought it on herself.
Actually, the assistant never liked Yin Lulu. She always bullied others because of her status. If she wasn’t Yin Zhengyuan’s daughter, she probably wouldn’t even qualify to join Tuo Shi.
"Follow me." the assistant said.
Su Changfeng nodded and as he left, he made a point to glance at Yin Lulu, a smile tugging at his lips.
He wasn’t mocking her; he simply found Yin Lulu ridiculous. Seeing her reminded him of Chen Xueqi.
Yin Lulu seemed like the same type of woman as Chen Xueqi, but she was evidently worse, as if a man deserved to live only if he submitted to her.
"Su Changfeng, wait and see, one day you’ll kneel down begging me to spare you!" Yin Lulu shouted at Su Changfeng’s back.
Upon hearing this, the assistant smiled disdainfully. With Yin Lulu’s strength, wanting Su Changfeng to kneel to her was truly laughable.
"Yin Lulu has always bullied others, and previously she openly declared she wanted to kill you and even cursed at Elder Wu. That’s why Yin Zhengyuan demoted her to the Yellow Level. She’s really something, even like this, she refuses to change." The assistant couldn’t help but sigh.
"There’s nothing that can be done. This world does have those extreme people, who believe they are the center of the world and cannot be ignored. Clearly, Yin Lulu is such a person." Su Changfeng said.
"You’ve already become a Heavenly Level member so quickly, what does she count for? Wanting to defeat you is simply a pipe dream!" The assistant laughed as he spoke.
"You came to find me just to flatter me?" Su Changfeng suddenly looked at him.
The assistant paused slightly, finally recalling his business and quickly said, "You should quickly go back to Jiang City."
"What happened? Did something happen in Jiang City?" Upon hearing this, Su Changfeng’s expression changed. Seeing the assistant’s tense look, Jiang City must have had some incident.
Jiang City had things Su Changfeng couldn’t let go of, so he naturally didn’t want anything to happen there.
But he thought again, he had given all the necessary instructions before he left. With Zhu Lie there, presumably, there wouldn’t be any problems.
Moreover, even if there were troubles Zhu Lie couldn’t handle, wasn’t Shangguan Sichen still there?
"After the incident at Infinite Cave, everyone thought you were dead, so Elder Wu sent Yang Junming to Jiang City to deliver the news to them." The assistant said.
"Damn!" Su Changfeng couldn’t hold back and cursed. If Shen Hanxue heard he was dead, she wouldn’t be able to bear it.
"When did Yang Junming leave?" Su Changfeng asked.
"It’s been a few days now, he’s probably already in Jiang City." The assistant said.
Su Changfeng let out a heavy breath, after so many days, they probably were preparing for a memorial by now?
"How could you do such a thing? Without seeing a body, you just assumed I was dead? Isn’t that screwing people over?" Su Changfeng said with some helplessness.
"In Infinite Cave, would there be any remains?" The assistant awkwardly touched his nose.
Su Changfeng thought of the bones scattered throughout Infinite Cave and didn’t speak, their thinking wasn’t entirely unreasonable.
"Help me tell Elder Wu I’m leaving now." Su Changfeng said.
"Alright, go ahead, it was originally Elder Wu who wanted you to return quickly." The assistant nodded.
Su Changfeng didn’t waste any more time and rushed back to his residence, though he wanted to hurry back to Jiang City, he couldn’t just leave Chen Qingqing in Tuo Shi.
Zhao Xiaona was also in Jiang City, since they were going back, it was good for them to meet.
"Qingqing, hurry up, we’re going back to Jiang City." Su Changfeng pushed open Chen Qingqing’s room door and shouted inside.
The air suddenly went silent, Chen Qingqing, who was about to change clothes, was startled by the sudden change.
Meeting eyes, neither of them reacted, and Su Changfeng’s gaze instinctively went downwards.
"Sor...Sorry!" Su Changfeng finally reacted, quickly dashed out, and closed the door.
Apart from being momentarily stunned, Chen Qingqing didn’t show any other emotion. She felt a faint sense of disappointment in her heart, hoping that Su Changfeng would stay a bit longer.
After changing, Chen Qingqing opened the door calmly and asked Su Changfeng, "Brother Changfeng, what happened? Why the sudden hurry?"
Su Changfeng glanced at Chen Qingqing’s expression, seeing her calm demeanor, not the embarrassment he expected, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"We must hurry back to Jiang City." Su Changfeng said.
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingqing’s expression finally changed, Su Changfeng’s urgency suggested something happened.
"What happened? Did something happen to Sister Hanxue or Niannian?" Chen Qingqing asked anxiously.
"Let’s go first, I’ll explain on the way."
They didn’t pack anything and simply left Tuo Shi.
On the road, Su Changfeng explained to Chen Qingqing, and Chen Qingqing couldn’t help but chuckle, never expected that in the few days they stayed at Infinite Cave, such a big commotion arose outside.
But they could understand Elder Wu’s approach, as he had personally experienced the challenges of Infinite Cave and naturally knew its terror, thinking they were dead wasn’t surprising.
Meanwhile, in the Tuo Shi Yellow Level zone, Mu Tian and Wu Wen felt the changes in their bodies after digesting the fruit, experiencing sensations they’d never felt before.
"Master, Su Changfeng was right, this fruit is truly incredible. I feel a force surging within, my strength has increased by more than double." Wu Wen said excitedly.
"What double, I think it’s increased by at least triple!" Mu Tian was also very excited. He had been in Tuo Shi for over ten years, but was always in the Yellow Level, he’d even resigned himself over the years. Unexpectedly, Su Changfeng brought such a great change.
