My Ares Son-in-Law

Xiao Chen bent down and exhaled all the pungent smoke from his lungs onto Chen Ziyan's face.

She choked, tears streaming down her face, and coughed violently, but dared not flinch. She simply stared wide-eyed at the devilish man before her.

“Miss Chen,” Xiao Chen’s voice was as cold as ice in the twelfth lunar month, devoid of any warmth, “with a good family background and good looks, you could have lived a peaceful life. Why do you insist on challenging my bottom line time and time again?”

He flicked his long, slender fingers at the cigarette ash, which landed on Chen Ziyan's elegant dress, burning small holes in it: "You provoke me time and time again, but I can't be bothered to pay you any attention."

He paused, his eyes growing even colder: "It's not that I'm afraid, it's that I feel it would dirty my hands."

Chen Ziyan trembled even more violently, like a leaf, her teeth chattering uncontrollably, making a "clucking" sound.

“But now, you’ve touched people you shouldn’t have.” Xiao Chen abruptly stubbed out his cigarette, sparks flying. “Where are Yun Miao and the others? I’m only asking this one last time.”

The woman's lips trembled, her eyes flickering with struggle. She couldn't speak! If she did, Ao Tianchen would never let her go, and she would truly have no way to survive!

The next second, as if grasping at the last straw, she suddenly screamed at the top of her lungs, "Xiao Chen! I was wrong! I really know I was wrong! I can make it up to you, you can have anything you want, do anything you want, please, please let me go!"

"Oh!"

A dull, loud thud! Xiao Chen grabbed her long hair, and with a forceful slam, slammed her entire face against the hard bluestone slab!
"Crack!" The crisp sound of her nose breaking rang out along with Chen Ziyan's shrill scream. Blood instantly gushed from her nostrils and the corners of her mouth, staining the ground red.

"My patience has run out." Xiao Chen's voice was filled with chilling killing intent, like a whisper from hell. "If you utter another word, I'll twist your head off and use it as a football."

A terrifying aura surged from his body like a tidal wave, engulfing the entire mansion.

Chen Ziyan seemed to see mountains of corpses and seas of blood unfolding before her eyes, with countless wronged souls wailing within them. A fear originating from the depths of her soul completely overwhelmed her!

"The provincial capital! The new factory area of ​​Xunjiang Group!" she screamed in despair, her voice hoarse and distorted, "They were sent to Ao Tianchen! Ao Tianchen arrested them! Please, I'll tell you, please let me go!"

Xiao Chen took a deep breath, released his grip on her hair, and turned to walk towards Qin Fang, whose face was pale but whose eyes were burning with passion. He took out a smooth, lustrous pill from his pocket and put it into Qin Fang's mouth.

The pill melted instantly upon entering his mouth, and a gentle yet powerful medicinal force spread out in an instant, repairing Qin Fang's damaged meridians.

Chen Ziyan collapsed to the ground, like a limp rag doll, gasping for breath as if she had just survived a catastrophe. She greedily inhaled the air, her mind filled with only one thought: She survived! She survived!

at this time.

Xiao Chen stopped at the threshold.

"Are you misunderstanding something?" He didn't turn around, his voice as calm as if he were talking about something trivial. "I just don't want your blood to stain my shoes."

The moment he finished speaking, he casually flicked his right toe.

The broken blade fragments on the ground seemed to come alive, shooting out instantly! A silver light pierced the air, emitting a sharp, ghostly shriek, its speed reaching its limit, leaving a trail of afterimages in the air!
"Pfft!"

The shard pierced precisely between Chen Ziyan's eyebrows, and a trickle of blood slowly seeped out.

Her pupils dilated suddenly, filled with disbelief, shock, and resentment. Her body slowly fell backward, and she fell completely silent. The Qin family mansion was deathly still, like a graveyard.

Looking at the tall, straight back in front of him, Qin Fang felt a chill run down his spine, yet he was also filled with endless gratitude and excitement.

If Xiao Chen hadn't arrived in time, the Qin family would have been destroyed long ago!

He knelt down with a thud and kowtowed three times, his forehead hitting the ground with a dull thud: "The entire Qin family will never forget Mr. Xiao's life-saving grace! From now on, the Qin family will go through fire and water for Mr. Xiao's every command!"

Xiao Chen shook his head: "Don't thank me. In the end, it's me who dragged you into this."

He glanced at Qin Fang and said, "Take the pill, and your injuries will heal within three days. I need to hurry to the provincial capital to save someone, so I won't stay any longer."

As soon as he finished speaking, he moved swiftly, shooting into the sky like an arrow released from a bow. His black trench coat drew a graceful arc in the night sky as he soared away, leaving only a blur behind.

Qin Fang, Qin Lingling, and the others stared in disbelief at the direction he had disappeared, their faces filled with shock.

This was the first time they had ever witnessed someone flying, and flying so fast!

……

The provincial capital, the new factory area of ​​Xunjiang Group.

Tonight, the lights are dazzling, as bright as day. Luxury cars fill the factory area, with rows of cars worth millions neatly arranged, showcasing the status and prestige of their owners.

The powerful and influential figures and martial arts masters from half of the western region gathered here, their elegant attire and gleaming hair creating a scene of revelry, all to celebrate the re-election of the new Martial Arts Association's president, Ao Tianchen.

Ao Tianchen originally did not want to hold a grand ceremony, after all, his brother-in-law had recently died a violent death and his body was still warm.

But the reason for making such a grand spectacle today is only one: to let everyone see with their own eyes how Xiao Chen, the "devil" who dared to kill his brother-in-law and dared to oppose him, Ao Tianchen, was reduced to ashes!
He wanted everyone to understand that in the Northwest, Ao Tianchen was the one who called the shots! No one could challenge his authority!
Inside the makeshift banquet hall, melodious music filled the air, creating a festive atmosphere. Men and women in elegant attire chatted and laughed, seemingly in harmony, but beneath the surface, tensions were running high.

However, upon closer observation, one will notice that many people have shifty eyes, glancing frequently toward the entrance of the resort, their expressions complex, a mixture of anticipation, worry, and, more often, amusement at the spectacle.

Everyone knew in their hearts that this seemingly grand birthday banquet was actually a trap woven for the "devil" Xiao Chen.

Ao Tianchen had laid a trap, just waiting for Xiao Chen to walk right into it.

"Commander-in-Chief, congratulations!" An elderly man with white hair stepped forward with a big smile, holding a wine glass. "Judging from your restrained divine light and concentrated aura, you must have made another breakthrough! This is truly a cause for celebration!"

Holding a white jade wine cup, Ao Tianchen stood in the main seat, nodding slightly, his expression disdainful, exuding the majesty and domineering aura of a superior.

He hosted a banquet for the heroes of the Northwest, ostensibly to celebrate his re-election, but in reality to establish his authority and to wait for the arrogant Xiao Chen to come knocking on his door.

"Rest assured, everyone," Ao Tianchen put down his wine glass, his voice not loud, but clearly carrying throughout the hall, filled with undeniable confidence, "Whoever comes tonight, I will show them who truly rules this Northwest." (End of Chapter)
