My Ares Son-in-Law

Cheng Tianan frowned, thought for a while, and said:
"I don't know if Mr. Xiao will come to the rescue. After all, the Oracle Sect just threatened to kill Mr. Xiao. Mr. Xiao is not the type of person to repay evil with kindness. Mr. Xiao must be angry about being bullied by the Oracle Sect before. How could he forgive them so easily?"

His words made everyone fall into deep thought, and everyone felt that it was unlikely that Xiao Chen would take action.

Jiang Zhenghao smiled, his eyes revealing a hint of wisdom, and said:

"You are still too young. For anything, you have to consider whether the benefits are sufficient and whether the sincerity is sufficient. If Shen Huo can pay enough to make Mr. Xiao interested, it is not impossible to save him. Anyway, Mr. Xiao was not injured and he got the advantage.

In this world, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. As long as Shen Huo can show enough sincerity and benefits, Xiao Chen might change his mind. "

His words made everyone suddenly realize what was going on. They felt that his analysis made a lot of sense and they all looked forward to what would happen next.

Jiang Yixue pursed her lips lightly, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a meaningful smile, with a hint of inquiry and thought in her eyes, she slowly said:

"Yes, think about it carefully. Xiao Chen dealt with Shen Huo just to vent his anger. Look at how arrogant and aggressive Shen Huo was towards Xiao Chen before. Xiao Chen must have been very angry.

Now that the bad temper has been vented, he should naturally get some benefits. I just don’t know what he will want? Is it gold, silver, treasures, or some precious cultivation resources, or other things that will help him in his cultivation? "

Shen Huo stood aside, his face, which had been calm, turned red in an instant, like a ripe tomato. He unconsciously clenched his hands into fists, and his knuckles turned white from the force.

He had already made a plan in mind, thinking of finding a suitable time to have a private talk with Xiao Chen about this matter, even if it meant lowering his status, apologizing to Xiao Chen, and admitting his mistakes, as long as he could salvage the situation and not embarrass himself and the sect too much.

But the problem was that Xiao Chen had no intention of talking to him in private. It was as if Xiao Chen wanted to embarrass him on purpose, and he wanted to do it in public so that everyone could see how embarrassed he was.

The gazes of the people around him were like sharp needles, piercing his body and making him feel uncomfortable. He felt like he was under the spotlight, and all his shortcomings and failures were infinitely magnified.

"I really shouldn't have offended this person." Shen Huo secretly regretted in his heart, his eyes full of regret and helplessness. He thought of all the provocations and difficulties he had made to Xiao Chen before, and felt that he was really possessed by a ghost at that time.

"This kid is so cunning and vicious. If you offend such a person, you can only accept your fate." Shen Huo became angrier and angrier as he thought about it, and his teeth were chattering.

He knew that Xiao Chen not only wanted to humiliate him personally, but more importantly, he wanted to humiliate the sect behind him.

Xiao Chen's move was too cruel, causing him to suffer a crushing defeat. Not only did he lose face, but the reputation of the sect was also affected.

The more Shen Huo thought about it, the angrier he became. His eyes fell viciously on Shen Lingling who was standing beside him, and he wished he could slap her to death.

If Shen Lingling hadn't provoked Xiao Chen for no reason, he wouldn't have taken action against Xiao Chen, let alone fallen to such a state. Shen Lingling was like a frightened deer at this moment, lowering her head, not daring to look at Shen Huo's angry eyes.

Henqiang, who was standing by, looked at Shen Huo's angry and helpless expression and sighed softly. He knew his father's character too well. His father had been strong all his life and always said what he meant. It was harder than climbing to the sky to make him bow his head. In fact, in his opinion, if he apologized, he would apologize. If he was embarrassed, he would be embarrassed. If he was dead, what was the point of saving face?

But he didn't dare say it out loud, because he knew his father's temper. If he rashly said such words, his father would definitely be furious.

He could only stand by silently and watch his father struggle in anger and helplessness.

"Puff!" A dull sound, as if it was a ruthless blow from fate.

Shen Huo felt a surge of anger burning in his chest, like raging magma, instantly breaking through the dam of reason. His eyes were wide open, full of resentment and resentment, and his body was shaking violently with anger.

This moment of rage was like adding insult to injury to his already fragile injuries. He felt a sweetness in his throat and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth like a fountain.

The blood was scalding hot and drew a shocking arc in the air. It fell heavily to the ground, splashing blood and quickly dyeing the land beneath their feet red.

Looking closely, one can faintly see some black color in the red bloodstains, which looks particularly strange against the bright red background.

That was undoubtedly the poison. The poison was wreaking havoc in his body, entangled with his qi and blood, and constantly eroding his body.

Shen Huo just felt weak all over, and every cell in his body was groaning in pain, as if being pierced by countless needles at the same time.

Shen Qiang stood aside, his originally calm face turned pale in an instant, his eyes full of panic and fear. That was his biological father, the person closest to him in the world, and the pillar of their family.

If his father were gone, the consequences would be disastrous. Their lineage's status in the family would plummet, and he would no longer be able to act like a tyrant and enjoy the flattery of others.

He seemed to have seen the tragic scene of the future, in which he would be laughed at and bullied and lose all his dignity and status.

"My father must not die!" This thought flashed through Shen Qiang's mind like lightning.

A trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly looked at Shen Huo, and said with a trembling but extremely firm voice:

"Dad, your illness is very important! I believe there is nothing in this world that cannot be done with money. As long as you talk to him nicely and meet his conditions, I don't think he will refuse. Dad, just be patient for now. When you are better, we can make a long-term plan."

Immediately, Shen Qiang took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, then looked at Xiao Chen with a hint of flattery and helplessness in his eyes, and said:
"Xiao Chen, let's not beat around the bush. Just tell me what conditions you want. This time, we've failed and we admit it. As long as you can save my father's life, we can discuss any conditions."

"Conditions?" Xiao Chen raised his lips slightly, revealing a faint smile, which was full of sarcasm and disdain. He folded his hands in front of his chest, looking at Shen Qiang and Shen Huo calmly, as if everything was under his control. (End of this chapter)
