My Ares Son-in-Law

Xiao Chen's voice was low and powerful, echoing on the silent road, like an alarm bell, striking Jiang Yixiu's heart heavily.

Naturally, he had fired that iron nail at an extremely fast speed. With his extraordinary strength and accurate judgment, he saved Jiang Yixiu, who was nearly stabbed in the back, at the critical moment.

Dead? In the distance, the Dragon Blood Realm warrior who had been standing there calmly watching the situation with a cold eye, was struck by lightning at this moment, and was completely dazed. His eyes were wide open, full of shock and fear.

To be honest, he didn't see clearly how Xiao Chen made his move. At that moment, Xiao Chen's movements were as fast as a ghost. He only vaguely saw a flash of cold light, and then, a stream of blood shot out from his men's eyebrows, and they fell straight down.

He couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, realizing that he had really hit a wall this time and met a tough guy with unfathomable strength.

The rest of the people lying on the ground also watched this scene in horror. They were so frightened that their faces turned pale as paper, and their hands and feet became weak, as if their bones and muscles were pulled out.

At this moment, they no longer cared about the pain in their bodies. They rolled and crawled desperately towards the direction of the Dragon Blood Realm warrior. It seemed that only by hiding beside that person could they feel a little sense of security.

Their eyes were filled with despair and helplessness, and their mouths let out bursts of terrified whimpering sounds, like wounded beasts wailing in despair.

Xiao Chen had a calm expression, and he was playing with a few iron nails with one hand. The iron nails were flexibly rotating under his fingertips, flashing a cold luster. He raised his head slightly, his eyes were like knives, and he looked at the remaining people coldly. A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, but the smile was full of endless chill, which made people shudder.

His voice was low and slow, and he spoke word by word, "Since you like to play dirty so much, how about I play some fun with you?" There was an unquestionable majesty in his words, as if he was announcing to these people that they were about to face a nightmarish punishment.

The Dragon Blood Realm warrior, named Gong Lan, was perhaps the only one among the few who could still keep calm and speak in this chaos and panic. His legs were trembling slightly, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, which sparkled in the sunlight like tiny pearls.

His eyes were filled with fear and uneasiness, and with a hint of pleading, he stammered, "We...we admit defeat, but we are only entrusted by others. The mission assigned by the superiors is just to teach you two a lesson. There is really no need to cause a death, right?"

As he spoke, he secretly glanced at the lifeless body on the ground, and a trace of pity and fear flashed in his eyes.

"Even if I kill him, what can you do?" Xiao Chen's eyes were as sharp as torches, and his gaze was so cold that it seemed to be able to freeze people. His gaze was like a substance, piercing straight into Gong Lan's heart. He took a step forward, and a strong sense of oppression emanated from his body. The air around him seemed to tremble slightly because of his step.

He said coldly: "Let me ask you a question now, who are you, who sent you, and who entrusted you with the task?" Every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, revealing an irresistible majesty.

"This... this doesn't seem to be a sentence, right?" Gong Lan's mouth twitched slightly, and a hint of depression appeared on his face. He secretly complained in his heart, thinking that this mission was as simple as taking something out of a bag.

When he received the mission, according to the intelligence provided by his superiors, although Jiang Yixue was at a high level, he had almost no actual combat experience. He could easily take her down by sending a few of his men. Even if he did not take action, his men could successfully complete the mission with their strength. But who could have expected that reality would give him a hard slap in the face. The bodyguard next to Jiang Yixue was not only incredibly powerful, but also had a wealth of actual combat experience. Every move and every shot was full of sophistication and precision. Even he, after seeing his ghostly speed of attack, could not help but feel a deep admiration from the bottom of his heart.

Gong Lan was filled with regret. If he had known that this mission was so difficult, he would never have taken it. But now, the situation was completely out of control, and the man in front of him didn't seem to be someone who was easy to talk to.

He secretly calculated in his mind, trying to find a way to save his own life and the lives of his men, and to allow both parties to end the situation with dignity.

After hesitating for a moment, Gong Lan gritted his teeth and said bravely: "Your Excellency, why do you have to push me too far? You have already killed one of us, which is considered to have completely offended our East City New Martial Arts Association. However, we are magnanimous and will not bother with you. Let's just let it go and let bygones be bygones. But if you push us too far, our East City New Martial Arts Association is not someone you can easily mess with."

As he spoke, he tried to straighten his back, trying to regain some dignity and confidence as a Dragon Blood Realm warrior.

"Although the New Martial Arts Association usually keeps a low profile and doesn't like to show off, that's only because the Ami Group is too high-profile and has stolen the limelight."

Gong Lan raised his chin slightly, a hint of pride on his face, and continued, "If we really talk about strength, our East City New Martial Arts Association is the undisputed strongest force in this HDD area. The so-called eight major families are simply a joke in front of our New Martial Arts Association."

His voice gradually became louder, as if he was trying to cheer himself up and intimidate Xiao Chen.

"Think it over. If you have figured it out, let's leave quickly and pretend that what happened today never happened." After Gong Lan said this, with a hint of expectation in his eyes, he looked at Xiao Chen cautiously, silently praying in his heart that the other party would accept the settlement proposal he proposed.

As he spoke, Gong Lan pretended to be calm, but there was still a trace of nervousness and uneasiness in his eyes. He slowly turned around, took a step, and tried to walk in the direction he came from.

In his heart, he was already certain that what he had just said was clear and sincere, which not only demonstrated his own magnanimity, but also appropriately displayed the strength and deterrence of the New Martial Arts Association.

He thought that Xiao Chen was such an intelligent person that it was impossible for him not to hear the meaning of compromise in his words, so there was no reason for him not to agree to reconcile.

As for Jiang Yixiu, in his opinion, she was just a pampered young lady with little practical experience, and he would not refuse such a solution that would save face for both parties.

"Stop!" Just as Gong Lan was about to take the second step, Xiao Chen's voice, as cold as a frost blade in the cold night, suddenly rang out. This voice was like a thunderclap exploding in the ground, echoing on this quiet and tense road, making Gong Lan's eardrums buzz. (End of this chapter)
