My Ares Son-in-Law

"Just took care of a Blood Demon Society assassin."

Xiao Chen spoke into his phone in a calm tone, as if he were talking about the weather. The cigarette between his fingers burned to the end, and the ashes fell silently.

On the other end of the phone, Di Tianyan's breathing suddenly stopped, and then he reported rapidly, his voice like a drumbeat:
"Alliance Leader! The Blood Demon Society is the number one cancer in the martial arts world of the Dragon Kingdom. Its influence has spread to seven major regions, and its actions are ruthless and without any bottom line... As long as the commission is high enough, they dare to assassinate even the core disciples of hidden sects! The provincial capital branch of the Western Region is controlled by 'Blood Blade,' a scoundrel nicknamed 'Soul Chaser Blade.' His cultivation has reached the minor completion of the Celestial Realm. His fast sword technique is so fast that it is difficult to catch his afterimage. No fewer than fifty martial arts celebrities have died under his blade, not even sparing women and children. He is a notorious mad dog!"

He paused slightly, then changed the subject, his tone full of awe: "However, in front of you, such scum are ultimately just ants, not worth worrying about."

"But the Blood Demon Society's rules are harder than steel." Di Tianyan's voice deepened, becoming so heavy it could be squeezed out of water. "Once a job fails, they will send even stronger ones to follow, fighting to the death! Back then, there was a mid-level martial arts family that was wiped out overnight by the Blood Demon Society simply because one of their bronze-rank assassins was accidentally killed. Even newborn babies had their necks snapped. The cruelty of their methods is enough to make anyone who hears about them shudder!"

Xiao Chen stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the night outside, which was as dark as ink. The city's neon lights spread out in dark red spots in the distance. Wisps of smoke drifted from his fingertips. He only gave a faint "hmm," without revealing any emotional fluctuation.

"Alliance Leader, I request permission to mobilize the core forces of the War God Alliance and raze their western branch to the ground overnight!" Di Tianyan's voice was filled with suppressed fighting spirit. "We can take this opportunity to wipe out this cancer in the western martial arts world and eliminate it forever!"

"No need."

Xiao Chen slowly straightened up, his gaze piercing through the deep night, landing on the area deep in the city where the neon lights shone brightly. His eyes were as cold as frost in the dead of winter: "Let them come, we'll deal with them as they come. Let them come."

He paused, a cold smile curving his lips: "Let me see just how much this so-called number one assassin organization in the Dragon Kingdom really is."

"...Alliance Leader, your strength is boundless, so you naturally have nothing to fear from the Blood Demon Society. However, I am worried that they might target those around you!" Di Tianyan urgently reminded him. "In that case, you will inevitably be overwhelmed and create unnecessary trouble!"

Xiao Chen frowned slightly.

Di Tianyan's concerns were not unfounded. He cared about many people, and he couldn't protect everyone under his wing all the time.

"Why not have my subordinates lead the entire War God Alliance in an attack to eradicate the Blood Demon Society completely?" Di Tianyan pressed his advantage, "That way you can rest easy!"

"No need."

"But……"

I said, no need.

Xiao Chen's voice was completely calm, yet it carried an undeniable authority.

There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone, followed by Di Tianyan's respectful reply: "Yes, Alliance Leader. Your subordinate obeys."

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Chen casually stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray. The night was as dark as ink, and the neon lights of the distant city looked to him like splattered bloodstains.

Blood Demon Society!

A chilling smile curled at the corner of his lips as he murmured, "Looks like the lesson from last time wasn't painful enough."

He turned around and headed straight for the cultivation room on the second floor of the villa.

The moment his foot landed, five top-grade spirit stones flew out of his storage ring, hovering in the center of the cultivation room, emitting a faint, lustrous glow. Xiao Chen sat down cross-legged, slowly closing his eyes. To cope with the storm to come, only strength was the most solid foundation!
With a thought, the "God of War Technique" was activated! Within his dantian, the vast and boundless true energy surged like a raging river, instantly breaking through his limbs and bones, and a series of slight humming sounds came from his meridians!

He flicked two crimson "Heaven-Burning Pills" into his stomach. The pills melted instantly upon entering his mouth, and their fiery medicinal power exploded like a volcanic eruption! The spiritual energy of heaven and earth around the villa surged wildly, forming a visible pale golden vortex that roared into Xiao Chen's body from all directions!

His robes moved and fluttered even though there was no wind!
Streams of golden energy, refined to the extreme, burst forth from the acupoints all over the body, vaguely coalescing in mid-air into a majestic and domineering dragon shadow, spiraling and rising. The deep dragon roar echoed in the cultivation room, causing the air to tremble slightly!
After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Chen slowly opened his eyes.

A flash of golden light appeared in his eyes, and a surging power instantly filled every meridian. His five senses became unprecedentedly sharp, and his divine sense spread out, allowing him to grasp every movement of the grass, the chirping of insects, and the scurrying of rats within a radius of hundreds of meters!

He slowly raised his hand, palm facing upward, and a wisp of golden true energy quietly emerged, pulsating slightly in his palm, emitting a subtle yet sharp sword-like sound!

A casual wave.

laugh……!
The walls of the cultivation room were made of a special alloy, which was extremely hard. However, this wisp of true energy silently cut a smooth cut about an inch deep, and the cut surface was charred black, as if it had been scorched by high temperature.

"Not bad." Xiao Chen nodded in satisfaction, got up and went to the bathroom, took a cold shower, and suppressed the churning effects of the medicine in his body.

When I came out, it was already dawn, and the eastern horizon was beginning to lighten.

I had just changed into a clean set of casual clothes when I heard the faint sound of keys turning downstairs, followed by deliberately quiet footsteps, as if afraid of disturbing something.

Xiao Chen's expression shifted slightly, and he quietly walked to the bedroom door.

The door was gently pushed open a crack, and a delicate and pretty face cautiously peeked in. Long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings, and big eyes blinked mischievously.

Eyes facing each other.

"Oh!" Yun Yuyan was startled, then pouted and said with some annoyance, "Why did you wake up again? I wanted to give you a surprise, but it turned into a fright!"

Xiao Chen gave a helpless wry smile: "This isn't a surprise, it's more like you scared me!"

He stepped aside to let Yun Yuyan into the house, feeling rather helpless. He had agreed to let her stay here temporarily, but he hadn't expected this girl to be so restless. Even though she knew he already had a wife, she still kept testing him like this.

What a headache!

Yun Yuyan walked into the room, raised her head, and stood on tiptoe to carefully examine his face. Her fair fingers gently traced his brow, and her tone was somewhat serious: "You seem different again... Have you encountered some trouble again?"

"They're just a bunch of clowns," Xiao Chen said calmly, not wanting her to worry too much.

"Then you mustn't be reckless!" Yun Yuyan cautioned, her tone full of concern. "Now, because of you, the Yun family in the ancient city is paying a lot of attention to our branch of the family. I've also become the influential eldest daughter of the Yun family again, and I'm quite capable! Although I may not be able to help you much, but..."

As she spoke, her voice gradually faded, and a hint of dejection appeared on her face. (End of Chapter)
