My Ares Son-in-Law

All members of the Black Phoenix Organization, whether they are the domineering, fierce and brutal leaders who usually lead their subordinates to dominate the ancient city and no one dares to provoke them, always have an arrogant look in their eyes.

They were still those meticulous and cunning advisors, always plotting behind the scenes, using insidious means to scheme against their opponents, with a cold, unpredictable smile often playing on their lips.

At this moment, they all seemed to be frozen in place, like clay or wooden sculptures.

Their eyes were wide open, like copper bells, and a look of terror flashed wildly in their eyes as they stared intently at the pool of blood that was spreading rapidly on the ground.

The bloodstains were shockingly red, like an evil flower blooming in the depths of hell, exuding a nauseatingly bloody stench that constantly assaulted their senses.

And then there was Xiao Chen, standing on the edge of a pool of blood, still expressionless. He was like a cold, aloof iceberg, radiating an aura that sent chills down people's spines.

His eyes were calm and indifferent, as if he hadn't just killed someone, but it was just an ordinary little thing.

In front of all the core members and high-ranking members of the Black Phoenix Organization, and right before their leader Situ Cang's eyes, Xiao Chen so decisively and cleanly killed a leader with considerable strength.

That leader was a fierce member of the Black Phoenix organization, with many loyal followers, and was a fearsome figure in the ancient city.

But now, he was easily crushed by Xiao Chen like an ant.

This is no longer a provocation!
The provocation might have carried a hint of testing and fear, but Xiao Chen's actions clearly trampled the dignity and authority of the Black Phoenix Organization underfoot.

This is a blatant declaration of war!
It was a challenge issued to the entire Black Phoenix Organization, as if to say: "In my eyes, you are nothing but a rabble, and I can crush you at any time!"

This is utter contempt that crushes everything!

It reflects disdain and contempt for everyone in the Black Phoenix Organization, from top to bottom.

"Squeak..."

Situ Cang, who had been as steady as Mount Tai and as unshakable as a mountain peak, finally stood up slowly from the main seat.

Although his body was somewhat aged, the aura he exuded when he stood up was like that of a lion awakening, radiating a terrifying majesty.

The wrinkles on his face were so deep, as if carved by a knife and axe, each wrinkle seemingly recording the hardships and bloodshed he had endured in the martial arts world over the past few decades.

Those cloudy old eyes, which usually exuded a sense of depth and wisdom, were now blazing with a sharp light, like two razor-sharp daggers, containing boundless rage and icy killing intent, locking onto Xiao Chen.

The Black Phoenix Organization has dominated the ancient city for over a decade!
Over the past decade or so, they have built their own dark empire in the ancient city, bullying and tyrannizing the market and committing all sorts of evil deeds.

The people in the ancient city dared not speak out against them, and other gangs also treated them with awe.

Never!

No one had ever dared to kill so recklessly in front of Situ Cang!
Even powerful opponents would be wary of Situ Cang and the Black Phoenix Organization, and would not dare to provoke them easily.

But what about Xiao Chen?

He was like a reckless fool, killing people in the heart of the Black Phoenix organization without any regard for the consequences.

This is simply trampling on the face of his Black Phoenix Organization and the reputation of Situ Cang that he has built up over decades!
Situ Cang was burning with rage. He vowed to make Xiao Chen pay a terrible price, to let everyone know that anyone who offends the Black Phoenix Organization has only one fate—death! "Boy..."

Situ Cang, his body hunched over, slowly rose from the main seat, each step seemingly carrying the weight and pressure of time.

His voice was deep and hoarse, like sandpaper being rubbed hard on a rough wooden surface, producing a dry and harsh sound.

Yet, this voice also possessed a chilling, penetrating power, like a cold, sharp arrow, echoing wildly in the deathly silent hall.

"You went too far."

"My Black Phoenix Organization has no past grievances or recent enmity with you. Why did you resort to such a vicious act, destroying my sect and killing my brothers?!"

Situ Cang's murky yet fierce eyes stared intently at Xiao Chen, as if trying to see right through him.

The Black Phoenix Organization flag behind him fluttered in the breeze, and the black phoenixes embroidered on it seemed to become ferocious in the tense atmosphere.

The Black Phoenix Organization has been entrenched in this ancient city for many years, and they have always been the ones bullying others. When have they ever suffered such humiliation?

Today, some kid who appeared out of nowhere dared to wreak havoc in their lair. How could he tolerate this?
As his words fell, the remaining gang members and experts in the hall, who were still immersed in shock and fear, instantly regained their ferocious nature like wolves that had been awakened.

Their eyes turned fierce and bloodthirsty, like a pack of hungry beasts spotting their prey.

The internal energy surged subtly, like an underground torrent, ready to erupt at any moment.

The weapon in his hand was gripped even tighter, his knuckles turning white from the force, forming a faint encirclement that tightly surrounded Xiao Chen.

They would pounce on the arrogant brat like tigers descending a mountain, tearing him to pieces to vent their hatred, all at the leader's command.

"pass?"

Xiao Chen's lips curled up slightly, revealing a mocking smile.

He casually flicked away his half-smoked cigarette, which traced a faint arc in the air before plummeting into the pool of blood like a shooting star.

A spark flickered in the darkness, fell into the pool of blood with a soft hiss, and went out instantly, as if it were the last sigh of those innocent lives as they perished.

He slowly raised his eyes, which were so cold they held no warmth, like two sharp ice blades, and stared directly at Situ Cang, saying without fear:
"The batch of 'goods' you handled was like a bunch of venomous snakes, roaming freely through the streets and alleys of the ancient city."

Those drug addicts who froze to death in the freezing cold, they originally had warm families and bright futures, but because they got involved with your "goods", they became neither human nor ghost, and in the end, they could only die alone in the cold wind.

Those families forced to sell their children, how happy and fulfilled they once were, but your "goods" are like a merciless knife, shattering their lives and plunging them into endless pain and despair.

And what about those innocent people who lost their families and died in the streets because of 'goods'? What did they do wrong?
They just wanted to live a peaceful life, but you pushed them into the abyss for your own selfish interests.

Are these things not enough?!

Xiao Chen's voice echoed in the hall, each word striking the hearts of everyone in the Black Phoenix Organization like a heavy hammer blow. (End of Chapter)
