The Crazy Son-In-Law

“Hmph, to avoid the tracking of the Gu insects, this person must have used ‘Scent Nullifier’. I didn’t expect those Meadowfolks dogs to dare collude with outsiders. They really have some nerve!” Mu Jiu said resentfully, then hurried towards the last place where Xiao Shun had vanished.

Before long, he arrived where Xiao Shun had applied the ‘Scent Nullifier’ not long ago. Observing the Gu insects circling in mid-air, having lost their target, he pulled open the bamboo tube and collected them inside.

Storing the bamboo tube inside his voluminous clothing, Mu Jiu slowly walked to the side of the highway.

“With so many footprints along the way and numerous traces of cars having stopped here, it appears the Meadowfolks have just left. How dare they betray my Hidden Families. Silvermeadows truly deserves death!”

He no longer bothered to chase the Meadowfolks but pinched his fingers together and chanted a curse, intending to activate the ‘Forbidden Gu Technique’ within the bodies of the Silvermeadows clan!

The curse had barely started when Mu Jiu’s face changed dramatically, and he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, disbelievingly saying, “The Gu technique has been undone!”

The backlash he suffered while chanting proved that the ‘Forbidden Gu Technique’ he had personally laid on the Silvermeadows had been removed.

After swallowing a pitch-black pill, Mu Jiu quickly recovered, speaking furiously, “Who could possibly have such capability!”

At this point, he could guess without much thought that the same person who encouraged the Meadowfolks to leave and stole the spirit vein was involved!

Had he known things would turn out this way, he wouldn’t have gone back to check on the spirit vein the night before last but would have captured that audacious person instead.

Mu Jiu’s irritation quickly dissipated, replaced by a cold, mocking laugh.

“Hehe, the elder just said the New School Society and the Old School Society are hostile and currently at a disadvantage. These Gu masters can indeed provide some assistance to someone named Xiao Shun. I’m increasingly suspicious of this person now!”

With his target confirmed, it would be easier to search.

With his hands clasped behind his back, Mu Jiu walked slowly towards the outer edges of the mountain.

Meanwhile, Xiao Shun, after some time spent refining, finally fused five types of spirit stones together, obtaining the true ‘Five Spirit Stone’!

The fusion of five colored Spirit Stones produced a pearl in his hand, emanating a faint white light and a rich aura of Anterior Heaven.

“As long as I consume this, I’ll be able to breakthrough!”

Without hesitation, Xiao Shun stuffed the ‘Five Spirit Stone’ into his mouth and swallowed it.

Instantly, a formidable Anterior Heaven aura enveloped his body, expanding his meridians several times over and wrapping his dantian in a golden light, causing earth-shattering changes!

The transformation inside his body lasted for two hours.

When he opened his eyes again, a golden light shot forth.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

A faint golden speck appeared in what was once a pitch-dark passage.

This was the unique ‘Consolidation’ practitioner’s Spirit Eye, capable of discerning illusions and making it easier to touch the essence of all things.

Using his Spirit Eye to scan the surroundings, Xiao Shun found he could see directly through walls to a place nearby rich in Ethereal Essence, even without using any divine powers!

He then stood up, walked to the window, and gazed out at the mountains stretching before him, murmuring, “Such rich Ethereal Essence must surely be where the ‘Gu Clan’ is located!”

Only places inhabited by Hidden Families would have such concentrations of Ethereal Essence.

Looking down again, he checked the condition inside his body.

Now his meridians had truly expanded more than tenfold compared to before, and as for the Ethereal Essence gathered in his dantian, it could only be described as vast as the sea!

At this moment, every movement he made was filled with an explosive energy that resonated from within his body.

Trying to clench his fist tightly, Xiao Shun reflected, “Although I have yet to test the terrifying extent of ‘Consolidation,’ the enhancement of my physical body is like the difference between heaven and earth compared to before!”

Now here in the hotel, he hadn’t yet had the chance to test his enhanced abilities, but the range his spiritual sense could cover now extended up to one kilometer!

That meant, as long as he activated his spiritual sense, Xiao Shun could capture every movement within a one-kilometer radius.

What a staggering enhancement this was!

After enthusiastically experiencing the revolutionary changes within his body, Xiao Shun fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Xiao Shun woke up and called Song Linger to inform her of his upcoming trip to Southeast Asia.

After hearing his news, Song Linger asked, “Master, have you obtained the item you wanted?”

Xiao Shun chuckled softly, “Hehe, I have it!”

“So, you are now…”

“Yes, I am now a ‘Consolidation’ practitioner!”

Upon hearing this, Song Linger laughed joyously over the phone.

The breakthrough of her master naturally thrilled her as his disciple.

Xiao Shun could already imagine Song Linger’s current expression, surely even happier than he was!

With a light smile, he asked, “How are things going with the Xia family?”

“I tried using elixirs to resolve their gu techniques, but to no avail. It seems only you can handle it, Master!” replied Song Linger.

Xiao Shun nodded, “Okay, I’ll come over right away and bring you the ‘Water Essence’ for body tempering to help you break through your current realm!”

He had an extra “Water Spirit Stone” on hand. Last night, while refining the “Five Spirit Stones,” he had also transformed the extra Spirit Stone into Spirit Essence to aid Song Linger in breaking through to ‘Anterior Heaven’!

Naturally, Song Linger was very pleased with this.

She had been at the peak of Posterior Heaven for some time, complaining just a few days ago about not knowing when she would break through. Yet, just a few days later, Xiao Shun had brought her a great surprise!

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Shun left the hotel and headed straight to Heaverpool Airport.

Just as he was about to change his ticket, he received a call from Qin Zhenhuan.

“Senior, is there something you need?”

“Leader, our people have already gathered on the Southeast Old School Society side, ready to make a move tonight!”

Hearing this, Xiao Shun inquired, “How’s the situation been investigated?”

Qin Zhenhuan, enthusiastic, replied, “Nie Jiuchong’s death hasn’t been made public, and just as we suspected, the Southeast Old School Society is in disarray! Everything will go smoothly according to the plan, and we will certainly succeed easily!”

“With the help of Master Miaoxiuyun and other gu technique masters, our mission should be quite easy,” Xiao Shun said calmly.

“Hehe!” Qin Zhenhuan chuckled, then uttered four words: “Victory without bloodshed!”

“Well, then I’ll wait for your good news. If we can take down the Southeast Old School Society, our New School Society’s power will surely increase significantly, narrowing the gap with our rivals even more. The goal is in sight!” Xiao Shun remarked thoughtfully.
