My Ares Son-in-Law

The reason why Cheng Tianan had such extraordinary courage and dared to take such a tough action against Atuo under the noses of the Oracle Gate and the Hero Valley was naturally given by Xiao Chen.

Cheng Tianan has known Xiao Chen for a long time. In many past experiences, he has witnessed with his own eyes the powerful strength displayed by Xiao Chen.

It was a power that was enough to make all things in the world tremble, as if Xiao Chen was the master of this world and could do anything.

In Cheng Tianan's heart, Xiao Chen's strength has long exceeded his imagination. Even when facing a powerful force like the Oracle Sect, which is famous in the martial arts world and makes countless people tremble in fear, Cheng Tianan firmly believes that Xiao Chen can easily deal with it by his own strength.

This absolute trust in Xiao Chen, like a belief deeply rooted in his heart, supports him to face any danger and challenge without fear and to move forward courageously.

At this moment, he stood here, his heart full of confidence, with a firm light flashing in his eyes, as if announcing to everyone that with the towering mountain of Xiao Chen behind him, he was fearless.

However, the atmosphere in the restaurant became tense because of Cheng Tianan's decisive action.

Shen Lingling and Huang Ting's faces instantly turned like the gloomy sky before a storm, with dark clouds and terrible blackness. Their eyes were wide open, staring at Atuo, who was lying on the ground struggling in pain with a broken arm and bleeding all over the ground, with shock and disbelief in their eyes.

In their eyes, although Atuo was not a top expert, he was definitely not an ordinary person. In the Valley of Heroes, he was considered a top figure with his own strength, and he did a lot of things for them on weekdays.

But now, in just such a short moment, they were easily defeated by Cheng Tianan. How could they accept this?
Shen Lingling's lips trembled slightly, and she wanted to say something, but was shocked and speechless. Huang Ting's face turned pale and blue, and his body trembled slightly, which was a sign of extreme anger.

Although Atuo was not strong, he was definitely not weak. Cheng Tianan was able to subdue Atuo so neatly, which showed that he was quite capable. Moreover, what was most difficult for them to accept was that Cheng Tianan dared to be so bold and do such a thing.

In their opinion, one should consider the owner's face before beating the dog. But Cheng Tianan was different. He didn't even ask a question. He just swung a big stick and beat their "dog" to a pulp. He did it in front of their two "masters". This was a blatant provocation and humiliation to them.

Huang Ting finally couldn't hold back his anger. He took a step forward, stretched out his right hand, pointed at Cheng Tianan with trembling fingers, and shouted angrily: "How dare you commit a crime in the Hero Valley? It's simply lawless! What do you think this place is!"

His voice became distorted due to anger, and it echoed in the restaurant, attracting the attention of the diners around him. At this moment, he was filled with anger and unwillingness. He could not tolerate someone being so presumptuous in his territory, and he wanted Cheng Tianan to pay a heavy price for his actions.

When Cheng Tianan heard Huang Ting's roar, a look of disdain appeared on his face. He raised his head slightly and glanced at Huang Ting with a hint of contempt in his eyes.

"Everyone saw it clearly," he said slowly, his voice clear and steady, echoing in the restaurant, "He was the one who stabbed me first. I was acting in self-defense, which is reasonable. If anyone were in my position, no one could say that I was unreasonable."

As he spoke, he glanced at the people around him, his eyes full of confidence. He knew in his heart that his behavior was reasonable, and no matter from which angle he looked at it, he was right. Huang Ting wanted to use this as an excuse to attack him, but it was completely untenable.

Huang Ting was choked by Cheng Tianan's words and was speechless. His face became even uglier and uncertain. He gritted his teeth and secretly thought about how to save the situation. "Do you really think that you are so powerful that no one here can deal with you?" He said viciously, with a fierce light flashing in his eyes, as if announcing to Cheng Tianan that he would not let it go.

When Cheng Tianan heard this, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a sarcastic smile.

"We should ask you this question," he met Huang Ting's gaze fearlessly and asked, "You want to destroy someone just because of a disagreement. Are you being reasonable? Do you really think that Haohan Valley is invincible?"

His voice was full of questioning and disdain. In his opinion, the behavior of Huang Ting and others was truly unreasonable. They relied on the power of Haohan Valley to act recklessly.

His words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Huang Ting's heart hard, leaving Huang Ting speechless for a moment.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the restaurant became increasingly tense. Everyone held their breath, staring at Cheng Tianan and Huang Ting, not knowing how this conflict would end. It seemed as if everyone was waiting for an even more thrilling drama to take place.

Huang Ting gritted his teeth, the anger in his heart surged like a raging tide. His hands unconsciously clenched into fists, his joints turned slightly white due to the force, and his body leaned forward slightly, as if he was ready to rush up and fight Cheng Tianan at any time.

However, beneath the angry appearance, a trace of fear was like a quietly growing vine, entwining his heart, making his feet seem to be nailed to the ground. He could not take a step and looked quite cowardly.

His eyes were fixed on Cheng Tianan, filled with complicated emotions.

Although he couldn't judge exactly what level Cheng Tianan's strength had reached at the moment, the scene of Cheng Tianan easily controlling Atuo just now was like a picture deeply imprinted in his mind and could not be erased.

Atuo was considered quite capable in the Hero Valley, but he was completely powerless in front of Cheng Tianan. It seemed that Cheng Tianan was definitely not a simple character. Huang Ting secretly speculated in his heart that maybe Cheng Tianan was a Dragon Pill Realm warrior like him.

However, he was very clear about his own strength. He was only at the low level of Dragon Pill Realm. As for Cheng Tianan, judging from the strength he displayed, he might not be just at the low level.

What's more, Atuo, who was lying on the ground with blood gushing out of his broken arm and howling in agony, looked so miserable that it was like a silent warning, reminding Huang Ting at all times.

All this proves that Cheng Tianan is definitely not a merciful person. From the moment he acted decisively, it can be seen that he is a ruthless and fearless person.

When Huang Ting thought of this, he could not help but feel a chill on his back. He repeatedly weighed the pros and cons in his mind. If he rushed forward rashly, he would be no match for the opponent if he made a mistake in judgment. He might be the next one to become disabled like Atuo. (End of this chapter)
