The City’s Strongest Son-in-law Chapter 1428 - 1427: Power Boost

What he needs to do now is to quickly learn to control this power, because the substantial increase in a short time leaves Su Changfeng a bit unaccustomed.

He clearly feels a subtle pull of power between the skull and the leg bone, which makes Su Changfeng a bit worried because they clearly belong to one master.

Su Changfeng couldn’t help but wonder, if he collected all the bones, could he possibly be controlled by this set of bones that doesn’t belong to him, and at that time, he would no longer be himself.

He secretly resolves that unless absolutely necessary, he will try to avoid this amplification method, for if such a thing occurs, it would be truly irreversible.

After spending a day and a night, Su Changfeng finally stabilized the power within his body and could control it at will.

At this moment, Su Changfeng appears more ordinary, without any trace of a strong presence, perhaps this is the so-called return to simplicity; the stronger the existence, the more hidden and understated they become.

When he stepped out of the room, You Meng was prepared to see a completely new Su Changfeng, but upon seeing him, she felt the man in front of her seemed even more ordinary, and she was somewhat unable to react.

"You... what’s going on?" You Meng asked Su Changfeng with a face full of confusion.

The Su Changfeng in front of her didn’t seem to be stronger as she expected, and in fact, seemed even weaker. Could it be that eating too much Fate Fruit made Su Changfeng unable to absorb its energy, not only failing to strengthen him but making him weaker than before?

"You’ve been keeping watch outside?" Su Changfeng raised an eyebrow at her.

You Meng subconsciously nodded; she used to clearly sense Su Changfeng’s changes, so facing his current change was quite unbelievable to her.

"You ate the Fate Fruit, how come you haven’t gotten stronger? You even seem weaker than before?" asked You Meng.

Su Changfeng chuckled; he certainly noticed the change. The aura on him now seemed effortlessly simple yet profound, but whether he has gotten stronger or weaker is likely only known to him.

The current Su Changfeng feels completely confident facing You Meng, a confidence never felt before.

"Any news from Yu Changfeng?" Su Changfeng inquired.

You Meng didn’t answer but instead walked up to Su Changfeng and scrutinized him closely, looking as though she wanted to see through him.

"With your current strength, can you possibly beat Yu Changfeng?" You Meng asked suspiciously.

"There’s no need for you to concern yourself with that," Su Changfeng said with a smile.

Given the current situation, can he still laugh?

For unknown reasons, seeing Su Changfeng like this, You Meng felt a surge of anger. With his current state, if he couldn’t defeat Yu Changfeng, rescuing Chen Qingqing would be pure fantasy. If he ate all Fate Fruits, Chen Qingqing would surely perish.

"You still have the mood to laugh? Have you really forgotten the current situation? If Yu Changfeng doesn’t get the Fate Fruit, he certainly won’t spare Chen Qingqing," You Meng said.

"Who told you I can’t defeat Yu Changfeng?" Su Changfeng looked at the agitated Chen Qingqing, unable to suppress a smile. At this moment, he felt more confident than ever before; why would he put Yu Changfeng as someone to fear?

"Do you have any clue whether you can beat him or not?" You Meng retorted.

Almost as soon as she finished speaking, Su Changfeng suddenly exudes a thick aura from top to bottom, suppressing You Meng, almost giving her a sense of unsteadiness.

"You... you..." You Meng looked at him with terror, her voice trembling because at this moment, Su Changfeng gave her an overwhelming sense of oppression, making it hard to breathe.

To know, she is a Primordial Master, and if even she feels this way, then Su Changfeng’s strength...

"Now take a look again, am I weaker or stronger?" Su Changfeng smiled, looking at her.

You Meng’s breathing hastened involuntarily; this level of suppression on a Primordial Master, could it mean Su Changfeng now truly is a Holy Spirit Expert?

You Meng’s expression gradually turned dazed, she asked numbly, "Did you... have you possibly reached the Holy Spirit Realm?"

Throughout, the Holy Spirit Realm exists only in legend, so Su Changfeng hasn’t seen or experienced it, making it hard for him to judge his current rank.

But if being above Primordial Essence means the Holy Spirit Realm, then Su Changfeng’s current strength probably aligns with that mythical realm.

However, Su Changfeng’s Holy Spirit Realm differs from the true Holy Spirit Realm, as his enhancement comes not from his own strength elevation but from skeletal fusion reasons. If strictly ranked, his current state can only be considered Pseudo-Saint Spirit Expert.

"I didn’t expect you to rise so fast, quite how many Fate Fruits did you eat?" You Meng couldn’t help but ask.

Wasn’t she worried that he consumed all the Fate Fruit, leaving none for her?

Su Changfeng chuckled, looking at her, "If you like, I’ll give you one."

Upon speaking, Su Changfeng pulled one from his pocket; he initially cared deeply for the Fate Fruit because it was a tremendous aid in critical moments. But now, the Fate Fruit feels insignificant, almost like a useless appendage.

"What is the meaning of this?" You Meng frowned at Su Changfeng, knowing she confided so much to Su Changfeng purely to obtain the Fate Fruit, yet he hadn’t agreed before. Now, without her doing anything, he freely gave her one, making her reluctant to accept casually.

"What? You don’t want it anymore? Then never mind," Su Changfeng smiled.

Upon hearing this, You Meng instinctively snatched the Fate Fruit from Su Changfeng’s hand. Despite being unclear why he would give her the fruit, she knew missing this opportunity would mean potentially losing it forever.

Feeling the cool touch of the Fate Fruit in her palm, You Meng’s heart finally eased, and she then asked Su Changfeng, "Why give me the Fate Fruit? With your current rank, Yu Changfeng poses no challenge, right?"

You Meng thought through it clearly; she definitely knew Su Changfeng wasn’t giving her the fruit to enlist her help against Yu Changfeng, as Su Changfeng, given his strength now, need not view Yu Changfeng as a threat.
