The Strongest Mad Son-in-law

Chapter 1655 - 1658: Greed Upon Seeing Wealth

Shi Changdong glanced at the dozen or so people from Xuanmen. Although they couldn't discern others' strength with a single glance like Xu Hao, they could still make a rough estimation.

He immediately said, "This must be Miss Zhou Shuran, the new generation young powerhouse of Xuanmen, right?"

Zhou Shuran glanced over and said, "Shi Changdong, what do you mean by this? We from Xuanmen arrived first, shouldn't your Shi Family leave this place?"

Shi Changdong chuckled lightly, "I didn't expect Miss Zhou to be so domineering. But you seem to have forgotten, although this place was reached by you first, the treasure here hasn't found its owner. If we follow what you said, then perhaps we should all stop fighting over it and hand it over to the Lü Family, since technically, this is within their territory, right?"

Shi Changdong was quite disdainful of Zhou Shuran's words, thinking, is this woman not very bright?

Zhou Shuran snorted coldly, "Hmph! No matter what, there has to be some notion of first come, first served, right? We arrived first, so naturally, the treasure belongs to us."

"Hehe, that statement is meaningless. Even if you've got your hands on that object, we can still snatch it. Besides, you haven't even touched it yet." Shi Changdong waved his hand lightly, and the twenty or so people from the Shi Family immediately prepared for action.

If negotiations fail, they'll have to make the first move; the Shi Family is determined to obtain this item.

Zhou Shuran coldly said, "Hmph! To think that the Shi Family's eldest son is nothing but a bandit! If you want to start a fight, Xuanmen will accompany to the end! But should other forces arrive, can you still hold them off?"

"Hehe, there's no need for Miss Zhou to worry about that. A beautiful lady like Miss Zhou, I'm quite reluctant to lay hands on. Should a scratch break your skin, I'd be heartbroken for a long time." Shi Changdong laughed softly as he slowly approached Zhou Shuran.

He knew Zhou Shuran had only been cultivating at Xuanmen for half a year. No matter how strong her talent was, it was unlikely she had cultivated to a level that could rival his peak Late Stage Grandmaster level.

When Zhou Shuran felt the powerful pressure released from Shi Changdong, her face instantly changed.

This Shi Changdong's strength surpassed hers!

She snorted coldly, "Are you forcing me to use the Emperor Qin?! Once the Emperor Qin is unleashed,"

"Emperor Qin?!"

Shi Changdong immediately halted his steps, his face changing unpredictably, muttering, "No wonder Xuanmen was so reassured to let you come; it's because you're carrying the Emperor Qin on your back! It appears Xuanmen has invested heavily to obtain that sword. But it puzzles me, why would they invest so much and yet the Sect Leader herself isn't here?"

"Hehe, so you want to probe the whereabouts of our Sect Leader? You're overthinking it! However, if you dare make a move against us, I would rather exhaust a large amount of Qi Force to shock you!" Zhou Shuran coldly said, as she opened the package on her back, taking out the Emperor Qin.

When the Emperor Qin revealed its appearance, the Shi Family members all retreated several steps!

The might of the Emperor Qin was evident!

At this moment, a sudden burst of laughter echoed, "Hahaha! I initially thought the little girl was carrying just an ordinary zither on her back. I didn't expect it to be the Emperor Qin, Xuanmen's sacred artifact! Si Wen, your Xuanmen's Emperor Qin has always been stored away, rarely seeing the world. Today, to snatch that sword, you're willing to let your disciple bring it out!"

Zhou Shuran's face changed again. Si Wen was the name of Xuanmen Sect Master; the newcomer not only knew the Sect Master's name but dared to call it directly, indicating an extremely strong strength, not fearing the Sect Leader of Xuanmen at all!

Zhou Shuran coldly snorted, "Who is coming? Daring to call our Sect Master's name directly!"

As soon as Zhou Shuran's words dropped, a figure of a middle-aged man appeared in everyone's sight.

Shi Changdong was immediately surprised, "Father, why are you here?"

The newcomer was precisely Shi Changdong's father, Shi Ran, Family Head of Tian Nan Shi Family, whose power reached Great Perfection of Peak Late Stage Grandmaster level!

Back then, when their Shi Family wanted to cut off Xu Hao's luck, only Shi Changdong led the team. If Shi Ran had led, the mere Tu Family wouldn't stand a chance!

However, they must thank the Tu Family; otherwise, Shi Changdong and others might have long been dead.

Getting back to business, Shi Ran glanced at his son and said, "I knew this task of yours wouldn't go smoothly, so I followed behind. Upon seeing the Emperor Qin, I naturally came to have a look. Si Wen, aren't you coming out?"

"Hmph! Shi Ran, you're still so shameless, eyes greedy for the Emperor Qin? But I'll tell you, the Emperor Qin already has an owner." Xuanmen Sect Master Si Wen walked in from the cave entrance, gazing lightly at Shi Ran as he spoke.
