My Ares Son-in-Law

"Beep beep..."

The call was forcibly disconnected.

The air in the communications room suddenly froze, and a terrifying rage erupted from Xiao Chen's body, sweeping across the entire area like a volcanic eruption!

"Bang……!!"

The concrete wall beside him exploded with a bang, spiderweb-like cracks spread rapidly, dust fell in a flurry, and the entire communications room trembled slightly!
Di Tianyan's pupils shrank suddenly, and his face turned pale... He had followed Xiao Chen for many years and had never seen the Alliance Leader so out of control with his anger. That overwhelming killing intent almost tore space apart!

"Alliance Leader..." Di Tianyan was about to ask for instructions when he was interrupted by Xiao Chen's cold voice.

"Prepare the plane." Xiao Chen's voice was like a knife tempered by ten thousand years of ice, sharp enough to cut through the air. "Now, immediately, I need to get to the ancient city."

"Yes! I will arrange it immediately!"

"No need, I'll go myself! It'll be faster!" Before Xiao Chen finished speaking, his figure had already transformed into a blur, his true energy erupting beneath his feet, and he soared into the air like an arrow, instantly disappearing above the War God Alliance's dome...

He couldn't wait for the plane; every second that was delayed increased the danger for Yunmiao and the others!
……

Twenty minutes later, at the headquarters of the Ancient City Seeking Ginger Group.

Xiao Chen landed in the center of the square like a god descending to earth. As soon as he stepped through the gate, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his aura instantly became violent!

The glass revolving door was shattered into countless shards, reflecting a blinding light; the smooth marble floor was soaked with dark red bloodstains, and a strong, nauseating stench filled the air.

More than twenty security personnel lay sprawled across the hall, groans rising and falling... Some had their arms twisted at bizarre angles, clearly broken off; others had sunken chests, barely breathing, blood trickling down from the corners of their mouths, staining most of their clothes red.

Fortunately, no one died.

He later learned that it was Zhou Hongyan who led the people of the Underworld to arrive in time, which narrowly prevented a catastrophic disaster.

“Mr. Xiao!” A security guard, his face covered in blood, struggled to raise his head, his eyes filled with guilt and urgency. “President Liu… was taken away by Chen Ziyan’s men half an hour ago… They were too strong, we couldn’t stop them…”

Xiao Chen clenched his teeth, his knuckles turned white, and his joints turned bluish-white.

It's still too late.

He took out a white jade medicine bottle from his pocket, flicked it with his fingertip, and dozens of shimmering white pills flew out like shooting stars, accurately landing in the mouths of each wounded soldier. His voice was deep but carried a soothing power: "Swallow them, circulate your internal energy to heal your injuries, and you will recover quickly."

Before he could finish speaking, his figure had already become a blurry afterimage, bursting through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the hall and disappearing instantly at the end of the street.

Target... the Yun family!
He never expected that even a declining family like the Yun family, who had never sought worldly success, would be dragged into this mess by the venomous woman Chen Ziyan! If he had known, he should have nipped her in the bud back then and never let her live to this day!

This time, he intends to raze the entire Chen family to the ground, leaving no one alive!

……

In front of the Yun family's old house, Xiao Chen landed, his black boots sinking into the sharp shards of glass scattered on the ground, making a screeching sound.

The gate had already been violently smashed and lay askew to one side; the glass windows inside the courtyard were shattered and shards were scattered everywhere.

The interior was a scene of utter devastation. Tables and chairs were twisted into scrap metal, a huge hole was dented in the freezer door, and valuable antique vases were shattered, their dark red bloodstains forming eerie patterns on the floor. The pool of blood in the living room, not yet fully congealed, was particularly glaring, like a needle piercing Xiao Chen's eyes.

"Chen, Zi, Yan".

The three words were squeezed out from between his teeth, carrying a chilling aura and overwhelming killing intent. In an instant, the air above seemed to distort, and a terrifying aura swept around, causing even the old trees in the courtyard to tremble and scatter their leaves!

Just then, my phone started vibrating rapidly.

Li Can's voice came through the receiver, speaking so fast it was almost non-stop: "Mr. Xiao! The Underworld has located Chen Ziyan! In the Qin family in the ancient city... the old house that shares the same lineage as the main family in the provincial capital! She's leading the New Martial Arts Association and is besieging the Qin family!"

Xiao Chen's breath hitched, and the killing intent in his eyes intensified.

Qin Fang and Qin Lingling of the Qin family had been of great help to him in the past. Although they were unable to help him with the Reverse Scale Sword this time, he had never forgotten their kindness.

Chen Ziyan dared to mess with the Qin family; she's practically courting death!

"Thanks."

With those two brief words, Xiao Chen soared into the air once more, transforming into a black lightning bolt that tore through the sky and sped towards the Qin family manor.

At this moment, he no longer cared about shocking the world... Today, anyone who associates with Chen Ziyan will die!
……

The Qin Family Manor in the ancient city of the western region.

Chen Ziyan, dressed in a crimson dress, stood before the vermilion gate. The embroidered gold tassels on the hem of her dress swayed gently in the evening breeze, reflecting a dazzling light.

She raised her chin, her eyes haughty, and swept her gaze over the solemn-faced members of the Qin family in the courtyard as if they were ants, a contemptuous smile playing on her lips.

"I heard the Qin family wants to curry favor with Xiao Chen?"

She chuckled softly, her voice sweet as honey but carrying a chilling edge. "What a pity, you bet on the wrong horse. Now Xiao Chen is barely able to protect himself and is about to become a victim of the New Martial Arts Association. Your Qin family should be buried with him."

Qin Fang, the head of the Qin family, stared intently at the terrifying martial artists behind Chen Ziyan with a grim face. Their auras were as deep and unfathomable, and they exuded a suffocating sense of oppression. Any one of them could cause bloodshed in the Qin family!
“Miss Chen,” Qin Fang gritted his teeth, suppressing his anger and fear, “the Qin family and the Chen family have no past grievances or present enmity. When the Chen family was in trouble, the Qin family never took advantage of their misfortune. Why do you want to kill us all?”

"So what?" Chen Ziyan tilted her head, her expression as innocent as if she were discussing the weather, but her eyes were devoid of warmth. "Isn't the rule of the martial arts world that whoever has the strongest fist gets to speak? Now that I have the New Martial Arts Association backing me up, making your Qin family disappear is just a matter of saying a word."

Her smile vanished abruptly, her eyes turned icy, and her tone became undeniably domineering:
"Qin Fang, kneel down, kowtow, admit your mistakes, and hand over all the antiques treasured by the Qin family, and I might spare the lives of the rest of the Qin family. Otherwise..."

She paused, then spoke each word with extreme ruthlessness:

"Today, not a single member of the Qin family will be spared!"

"You!" Qin Fang's expression changed drastically, he trembled with rage, pointed at Chen Ziyan, and shouted, "Don't go too far!"

Chen Ziyan lazily raised her hand and pointed at Qin Fang's hand, her tone tinged with impatience: "Old Guo, I don't like being pointed at."

As soon as she finished speaking, a gaunt old man in a gray robe behind her moved.

Without a trace, without a sound, without even a visible movement… in the blink of an eye, he stood before Qin Fang like a ghost. His withered, bony hand rose lightly, imbued with unparalleled true energy, and struck Qin Fang's right shoulder. (End of Chapter)
