The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

”I understand what you mean, and I’ve already considered it, but finding the space tunnel back isn’t easy at all? At least for now, we have no way to do it, we can only leave it to fate. However, destroying the array is absolutely not feasible,” Su Changfeng said.

He naturally understood Chen Qingqing’s intentions and knew she was keen to help the exotic beasts destroy the array, but doing so would certainly bring endless disasters to the Tianyuan Continent.

The Tianyuan Continent still has so many people just like them, flesh and blood civilians. Su Changfeng didn’t want, for the sake of stability in one world, for them to find a peaceful way back, to cause widespread devastation.

Unless absolutely necessary, Su Changfeng would never choose to do so.

”Brother Changfeng, am I being very selfish thinking this way?” Chen Qingqing said, hanging her head.

”No, actually having such thoughts is only human nature, but you must understand that if we really did it, wouldn’t it be the same as when the Tianyuan Continent invaded Earth? While we may not be saints, the principles and bottom lines we should have must definitely be followed,” Su Changfeng said.

Chen Qingqing nodded and continued, ”Brother Changfeng, there’s actually another matter. Earlier when I was talking with an elder, I learned that a powerful woman has appeared in Dongling, accompanied by a little girl. She defeated many experts in Dongling, and there’s a rumor she’s already a Holy Spirit realm expert, which means our plan might face obstacles.”

”It seems you’ve gotten along quite well with the Xingluo elders,” Su Changfeng said with a smile.

”Of course, they know all about our business, so I definitely have to dig into Xingluo matters through them,” Chen Qingqing replied.

”I remember when I first met you, you were still a simple and kind little girl. Now to see that you’re already using tactics, truly impressive,” Su Changfeng teased.

Seeing Chen Qingqing’s resentful look at him, he finally coughed and said seriously, ”This matter is indeed worth paying attention to. After all, we’re not just dealing with Xingluo; if there’s really a Holy Spirit realm expert appearing within Dongling, then that’s naturally not good news for us.”

”Brother Changfeng, aren’t you quite charming? Why not just release some charm and make her like you? This way, we lose a threat and gain an ally, hehe,” Chen Qingqing said playfully. This girl still remembered how Su Changfeng teased her earlier, and with a chance at hand now, she certainly wouldn’t let it pass.

Su Changfeng, successfully rendered speechless for a moment, smiled helplessly and said, ”What nonsense are you saying? Doesn’t she already have a child? Are you suggesting I go become a stepfather?”

”What’s wrong with that? Wouldn’t that give Niannian more company, isn’t it better?” Chen Qingqing raised her brows and said.

”Qingqing, are you doing this on purpose? If Sister Hanxue finds out, I won’t have to live,” Su Changfeng looked at her helplessly. His feelings for Shen Hanxue shouldn’t allow for any third party interference, or he might really never return to Earth.

”How could that be? We’re already in another world, no matter what you do, Sister Hanxue won’t know,” Chen Qingqing laughed and said.

”Are you setting me up, to threaten me when we go back?” Su Changfeng pretended to be angry and looked at her.

However, Chen Qingqing had long been indifferent to such antics, and hearing this, she seriously said, ”Am I that kind of person? No matter what, you’re my brother, I definitely have to help keep it a secret for you. But in the future, if I ever need your help with something, you must help me.”

”Haha, it seems you’re quite idle, how about I find out if there are any grueling tasks that need doing, for you to handle?” Su Changfeng said coolly, looking at her.

Chen Qingqing’s mouth twitched, she laughed dryly, and dashed away.

Meanwhile, when You Meng and Yu Changfeng arrived at Chenguang Hall, it was already a day later. To cover the distance from Fengming City to Chenguang Hall in just a day, ordinary experts couldn’t achieve this.

”I can’t go on, I’m really going to die of exhaustion, is it necessary to rush like this?” Yu Changfeng gasped for breath, and forcing a Primordial Essence master like him into such a state was proof of how pressing the journey was.

You Meng’s situation wasn’t much better; even though it was just traveling, the energy expenditure was no different from fighting a battle.

”Alright, hurry up and meet the Emperor,” You Meng glared at him unamusedly. She too was very tired, but the matter of the Sourceless Forest was of great importance, leaving them no room for relaxation.

When they reached Chenguang Hall, the guards outside let them pass without hesitation. They were responsible for protecting the Emperor and naturally recognized You Meng, who was granted the privilege of free entry and exit at Chenguang Hall.

Inside Chenguang Hall, the Emperor was already waiting.

”Elder You, your rushed return, is it because of the Sourceless Forest?” the Emperor asked.

”Yes, what exactly is going on in the Sourceless Forest?” You Meng asked directly.

”The guards over there sent word that a battle occurred in the Sourceless Forest, but the reason for it remains unclear,” said the Emperor, glancing at Yu Changfeng beside You Meng as he spoke; he hadn’t seen this person before.

”He’s Yu Changfeng, a Primordial Essence master from Dongling Country,” You Meng was naturally aware of the Emperor’s curiosity and didn’t conceal anything, actively explaining.

The Emperor was somewhat shocked. He had certainly heard of Yu Changfeng’s name. However, what surprised him was why Yu Changfeng would appear in Xingluo.

”I did not know Mr. Yu would visit, pardon for not extending an invitation, I hope Mr. Yu won’t take offense,” said the Emperor.

”Emperor, it’s nothing, I’m the one who’s intruded,” Yu Changfeng said, cupping his hands.

”Emperor, previously when Yu Changfeng passed through the Sourceless Forest, he encountered some matters. We’re here precisely to tell you about these,” said You Meng. The issue with the Sourceless Forest was something Yu Changfeng had personally experienced, so naturally, he must convey it to the Emperor.

”Oh? What kind of matters?” the Emperor asked.

Following this, Yu Changfeng recounted his experiences within the Sourceless Forest, and when the Emperor heard the news about the awakening of the Silver Flood Dragon, his complexion drastically changed.

As the Emperor, he naturally understood the consequences of the Silver Flood Dragon’s awakening, and knew how frighteningly powerful such an exotic beast could bring about changes to the Tianyuan Continent.

If the array within the Sourceless Forest was destroyed, releasing the Silver Flood Dragon, then the Tianyuan Continent would indeed face widespread devastation.

”Mr. Yu, are you sure of this? Is it truly the Silver Flood Dragon?” the Emperor reconfirmed.

”While I may be old, I’m not so much that I’m confused. If the Emperor doesn’t believe me, how about sending someone to have a look in the Sourceless Forest?” Having sensed the Emperor’s skepticism, Yu Changfeng felt somewhat displeased.
