The City’s Strongest Son-in-law Chapter 1403 - 1402: Killing for Treasure

Faced with the Silver Flood Dragon, Yu Changfeng truly had no confidence; back then, countless masters were lost before the array of the Sourceless Forest was established to put the Silver Flood Dragon to sleep.

But now on Tianyuan Continent, there aren’t as many masters to handle such matters, so the best solution Yu Changfeng can think of is to leave.

"I admit you make a valid point, but don’t forget, who led the Tianyuan Continent then? Even he has no remains, so how can you accomplish this?" You Meng asked.

Mentioning that person made Yu Changfeng’s heart involuntarily sink. That person in the legends of Tianyuan Continent was the only one in the Holy Spirit Realm. Though his strength could no longer be verified, the Secret Scripture recorded that he truly was the only one who could command the three armies, yet he ultimately failed.

"What do you mean no remains, his bones are scattered across Tianyuan Continent, and it is said that a master like him, even his bones carry unimaginable energy. So over these years, I have also been searching, but sadly, I haven’t found a single clue yet." Yu Changfeng sighed deeply as he spoke.

It is widely known that the Fate Fruit can help enhance one’s power, but Yu Changfeng believes it’s not the only way. If he could find that person’s remains, he could also enhance his power; however, accomplishing this task is as difficult as obtaining the Fate Fruit from the Sourceless Forest.

"To be honest, I’ve been the same all these years," You Meng did not hide it. As a Primordial Master, her lifelong pursuit is to break through to the Holy Spirit Realm. Since there is such a legend, how could she not be tempted?

"Do you have any clues?" Yu Changfeng asked.

He is a sly old fox; the reason he is so honest to You Meng is that he hopes You Meng can be honest with him too. Since they are both Primordial Masters, he naturally knows that You Meng is also pursuing a higher realm.

"No." You Meng sighed deeply, saying: "I haven’t found a single clue."

Yu Changfeng wasn’t surprised by this result. The person’s remains are scattered throughout Tianyuan Continent and aren’t eye-catching objects themselves, so finding them is not easy, to say the least.

"It seems impossible to become a master in the Holy Spirit Realm." Yu Changfeng said helplessly.

"That’s not necessarily true; even if we can’t find his remains, there’s still the Fate Fruit." You Meng said.

Yu Changfeng laughed immediately. Of course, he knew there was still the Fate Fruit, but is the Fate Fruit so easy to obtain? Moreover, given the current situation in the Sourceless Forest, who would dare to go seek the Fate Fruit lightly?

"You Meng, have you gone mad? The Fate Fruit is in the Sourceless Forest, and I believe it’s guarded by the Silver Flood Dragon. Do you think you can take the Fate Fruit from beside the Silver Flood Dragon?" Yu Changfeng looked at her helplessly. Going to the Sourceless Forest to find the Fate Fruit now is clearly a death mission.

Moreover, even if the Silver Flood Dragon hasn’t awoken, they don’t have the guts to venture into the Sourceless Forest easily. There’s a chance they could lose their lives with a single misstep.

"Who says there’s only Fate Fruit in the Sourceless Forest?" You Meng said. She hadn’t forgotten the words that Su Changfeng once shared.

In fact, she inexplicably believed that Su Changfeng wasn’t joking with her; otherwise, why would he bring the Fate Fruit out for auction?

Hearing this, Yu Changfeng’s expression gradually became serious, and he asked: "I heard someone wanted to auction a Fate Fruit in Xinluo City before; do you know anything?"

"The one who auctioned the Fate Fruit was Su Changfeng, and he told me that he not only had one Fate Fruit." You Meng said.

A trace of killing intent appeared in Yu Changfeng’s eyes. Upon hearing this news, his first reaction was to kill for treasure. Once he killed Su Changfeng, wouldn’t the Fate Fruit in his hand fall into his possession?

"Does he really have more Fate Fruit?" Yu Changfeng asked seriously.

You Meng understood Yu Changfeng’s intentions upon seeing his reaction and kindly reminded him: "Don’t forget, Su Changfeng’s strength isn’t something that you and I can easily discern. If you plan to kill him, it’s best to think about whether you have a way to retreat unharmed. Otherwise, you might end up losing your life without getting the Fate Fruit."

Upon hearing this, Yu Changfeng felt as if he’d been hit by a rod, suddenly waking up. You Meng was right, wanting to kill Su Changfeng for the treasure wasn’t so easy. With one careless move, he might just die at Su Changfeng’s hands.

"Do you think he truly has more Fate Fruit?" Yu Changfeng asked.

You Meng thought for a moment, then nodded: "He should have more; he has no reason to deceive me."

Yu Changfeng frowned, showing a hint of concern on his face, and said: "How could that guy obtain the Fate Fruit? Who exactly is he, could it be that the Sourceless Forest belongs to his family, and he can enter freely?"

"That’s why I think the Dragon Tamer might be related to him." You Meng said. She wouldn’t connect the Dragon Tamer and Su Changfeng without reason, and it was because of this reason that she had such a suspicion.

As Primordial Masters, they understood how difficult it was to obtain Fate Fruit; yet Su Changfeng not only had one, showing he must have been to the Sourceless Forest, and even obtained Fate Fruit from powerful Exotic Beasts.

"According to what you said, it might just be like this; could it be that the burden of saving Tianyuan Continent will ultimately fall on him?" Yu Changfeng asked.

You Meng couldn’t confirm this yet, but even if Su Changfeng wasn’t related to the Dragon Tamer, with his strength, facing the Silver Flood Dragon, he should be able to help a bit, so forming alliances with Su Changfeng is something they must do.

Unfortunately, Su Changfeng is too wary of her, and it’s not easy to make him trust her.

"Changfeng Sect is about to formally open now, right? It seems we won’t be able to see it." You Meng sighed involuntarily, with a look of regret.

"What does it matter if we see it or not, he won’t welcome you in the slightest." Yu Changfeng said with a smile.

Although he’s only met Su Changfeng once, he can already sense his hostility toward You Meng, so if You Meng doesn’t go and meddle, Su Changfeng will probably feel happy.

You Meng glared at Yu Changfeng with irritation, saying: "I don’t welcome you either, so when do you plan to leave?"

Yu Changfeng has lived for hundreds of years, and his face has long been cultivated. Hearing this, he wasn’t angry, and said jovially: "With the situation so urgent now, how can I leave? Besides, the Sourceless Forest is so dangerous, if I go, I might just never return."

"Don’t worry, at worst, I’ll have the Emperor open the War Path for you, and you’ll definitely return safely." You Meng said blandly.
