The Crazy Son-In-Law

Chapter 793: Provocation



Xiao Shun’s calm and composed demeanor incited a visceral hatred in Ruan Jinshui.

A fiery rage surged in his chest, igniting his entire being in an instant.

In his fury, Ruan Jinshui fired three shots in quick succession.

These shots were no mere threat; all were aimed directly at Xiao Shun’s shins.

Given the power of an M4, at a distance of less than ten meters, shattering a man’s legs was easily within reach.

However, what happened next left everyone present agape.

“Clang, clang, clang!”

Sounds of metal striking metal emanated from Xiao Shun’s shins.

Then, three deformed bullets fell to the concrete floor.

“Ting!”

The sound of the bullets hitting the ground was faint, but it sent shockwaves through the hearts of all who heard it.

The mere flesh and bone of a man standing strong against the impact of bullets was indeed a terrifying notion.

Most present were experts, and had Xiao Shun raised a protective shield to block the bullets, perhaps they wouldn’t have been so surprised.

But now…

Ruan Jinshui was utterly petrified, yet Song Linger and the “Wild Gu People” beside him bolstered his courage, and he viciously said, “Xiao Shun, you are courting death!”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Hearing this, Xiao Shun scoffed coldly, “Ha, isn’t it clear that your actions are intended to kill me?”

His words choked Ruan Jinshui speechless.

Staring at Xiao Shun with a flustered look, he spat out hatefully, “Bastard, if you want to save Song Linger, kneel down!”

“Kneel?” Xiao Shun’s eyes narrowed, a chill spreading from within.

Under his intense gaze, Ruan Jinshui felt as if he’d fallen into an ice cellar, quickly hiding behind the “Wild Gu Person,” and anxiously said, “Master Ada, this bastard wants to kill me!”

Upon hearing this, “Wild Gu Person” Ada stepped forward, his dull eyes suddenly shooting sharp daggers of light at Xiao Shun, commanding, “Kneel!”

Xiao Shun curved his lips slightly, “I haven’t even seen my disciple’s face, why should I obey your commands?”

Ada squinted at him, then turned to Ruan Jinshui and said three words: “Show him!”

Hearing this, Ruan Jinshui’s face was a picture of astonishment, “Master, this bastard is full of tricks, what if he takes the chance to attack…”

Before he could finish, Ada shot him a cold glare, “Are you doubting the strength of the ‘Wild Gu People’?”

Ruan Jinshui trembled, not daring to bear the brunt of such an accusation.

Although he could use the renowned gu skills to command Ada’s assistance, it didn’t mean he could freely direct him. Angering the old man could spell disaster for his entire family.

With this in mind, he ordered his men to bring down Song Linger from the second-floor office.

Seeing this, Xiao Shun felt a wave of relief.

Ada’s confidence had indeed done him a great favor!

Though secretly relieved, Xiao Shun showed no sign of it on his face, as Ruan Jinshui was watching him intently, ready to catch any hint of deceit.

The boy was truly vigilant!

Soon, the unconscious Song Linger appeared in the hallway on the second floor, supported by two men.

To ensure nothing went wrong, Xiao Shun chose not to act immediately but to wait until they were closer to use his silver needles on the acupoints.

Just at this critical moment, Ruan Jinshui suddenly shouted at the two men trying to bring Song Linger downstairs, “Stop!”

At his command, the men immediately halted and looked down from the second floor.

Ruan Jinshui turned to look at Xiao Shun, his face alert as he said, “Now that you’ve seen her, what else do you have to say?”

Xiao Shun was so furious he wanted to slap the scoundrel to death!

After controlling his anger, he slowly spoke, “I’ve seen her, but how do I know you haven’t harmed her? From this distance, how can you expect me to check?”

Hearing this, Ruan Jinshui snorted angrily, “Hmph, stop playing tricks here, don’t think I don’t know what you’re plotting!”

Xiao Shun ignored him and turned his gaze to the silent Ada, taunting, “You ‘Gu People’ are reputed to have unmatched sorcery skills, and cast spells so quickly one cannot react. Or is all that just flattery?”

The old man was extremely arrogant, so Xiao Shun decided to provoke him verbally to close the distance between himself and Song Linger.

As expected, Ada was successfully provoked by his challenge. He nodded to the two people upstairs, signaling them to bring her down.

Seeing this, Ruan Jinshui immediately warned, “Master, you…”

“Three strikes and you’re out. If there’s a next time, even if someone powerful protects you, I will turn you into a puddle of pus!” Ada coldly glanced at Ruan Jinshui, who was about to speak, his eyes filled with a chilling threat.

Intimidated by his threat, Ruan Jinshui covered his mouth, holding back his words.

Thus, Song Linger appeared at the top of the stairs on the first floor, supported by two strong men, stopping thirty meters away from Xiao Shun.

This time, Ada dared not be negligent. Having witnessed Xiao Shun physically block bullets, he was wary of his formidable physique and made sure not to let Song Linger get any closer.

Then, Ada looked at Xiao Shun and commanded, “Kneel!”

As soon as he spoke, Xiao Shun stepped forward and shockingly struck out a palm at Ruan Jinshui.

Out of necessity, Ada released a cloud of poison to block the attack for Ruan Jinshui.

In the moment of panic over Ruan Jinshui’s safety, a silver needle quietly pierced Song Linger’s core.

Xiao Shun had anticipated that Ada would protect Ruan Jinshui first rather than trigger the sorcery in Song Linger, given his arrogance and pride; he would never let his charge die before his eyes!

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Shun’s palm force collided with Ada’s poison cloud, sending a fierce gust swirling around them.

“Boom, boom!”

Flames burst forth amid the chaos, and two armed strong men attacked Xiao Shun simultaneously.

Ada, pale-faced, grabbed Ruan Jinshui and instantly tried to activate the “Colorless Gu” to take Song Linger’s life.

But just as he formed the thought, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

“Impossible…”

Clutching his chest, Ada looked in Xiao Shun’s direction.

Xiao Shun’s lips curved into a mocking smile, and he swiftly dashed toward Song Linger.

Seeing this, Ada’s eyelids twitched, and he roared at the two men controlling Song Linger, “Damn it, keep that woman under control!”

Before he finished speaking, two heads soared into the air, spraying blood like a fountain, shocking everyone present.

At the same time, Xiao Shun embraced the falling Song Linger, his fingers releasing a burst of energy that shot through the man about to speak to her.

In an instant, he had taken down three enemies.

In the blink of an eye, bloodshed ensued.
