The City’s Strongest Son-in-law Chapter 1437 - 1436: You Meng’s Madness

Wang Junyi’s legs went weak, and he almost fell to the ground. The little beggar he always looked down upon, the little girl he thought had some charm, turned out to be the top expert of Xingluo, You Meng!

Upon learning this news, Wang Junyi nearly cried, recalling the offensive words he once said to You Meng. Considering You Meng’s strength, if she wanted to kill him, he’d probably already be a corpse.

"What to do, what to do..." Wang Junyi’s face was filled with panic. Just thinking about how he had repeatedly offended the Primordial Master of Xingluo made him anxious, fearing that if You Meng wanted to settle accounts, his life would be forfeit.

Noticing Wang Junyi’s reaction, Baili Luoyuan realized he must have offended You Meng at some point; otherwise, he wouldn’t have reacted like this.

However, with Su Changfeng present, You Meng naturally would not act rashly against Wang Junyi, so there was really no need for him to worry.

"You don’t need to be afraid. After all, with your master here, You Meng won’t do anything to you," Baili Luoyuan said.

"Right, right, as long as my master is here, he’ll protect me, he’ll surely protect me." Despite saying this, Wang Junyi remained restless inside, worried that You Meng might cause him trouble.

In Baili Luoyuan’s view, with You Meng around, matters involving Yu Changfeng should be easier to handle.

However, they could never have imagined that now not only Yu Changfeng is dead, but even You Meng, the Primordial Master, is no more than an ant in Su Changfeng’s eyes.

The top expert of Xingluo in everyone’s eyes now merely has to curry favor with Su Changfeng.

But this, presumably, is hard for anyone to believe.

Bear in mind, You Meng is certainly the top expert of Xingluo. Even the Emperor has to give her some respect, so why would You Meng need to curry favor with anyone?

However bizarre it may seem, the fact remains that You Meng now indeed has to carefully curry favor with Su Changfeng. This is because she wants to advance, which requires more Fate Fruit, and to get it, she absolutely must find ways to stay by Su Changfeng’s side.

Originally, Su Changfeng had given her an opportunity; if she seized it, she could earn Su Changfeng’s trust. But because of that moment of hesitation, she missed that opportunity.

Thus, she’s left with no choice but to find other ways to regain Su Changfeng’s trust.

Once Chen Qingqing’s body recovered sufficiently, Su Changfeng went to visit Hua Qingyao and happened to encounter You Meng.

Of course, this was not a coincidence, but rather You Meng purposely waiting there.

"I’ve made myself very clear; why haven’t you left Changfeng Sect yet?" Su Changfeng said, expressionlessly looking at her. For someone he couldn’t control, Su Changfeng certainly wouldn’t show any favor.

Now in an unfamiliar place, he naturally couldn’t trust people easily, for one wrong step could lead to absolute disaster for him.

No matter how it’s said, You Meng is working for the Emperor. But Su Changfeng will eventually confront the Emperor, and so will inevitably stand opposed to You Meng.

"Tell me, what must I do to make amends?" You Meng asked bluntly. Her ability to say such words proved that when facing Su Changfeng, she had set her position very low.

The top expert within Xingluo Territory had never been so humble before, but You Meng had no other choice now.

On one hand, Su Changfeng’s ability to easily kill Yu Changfeng proves his strength far surpasses that of a Primordial Master. This alone warrants You Meng’s reverence.

On the other hand, You Meng wishes to break through into the Holy Spirit Realm, which requires Su Changfeng’s assistance. Hence, for her, carefully currying favor is nothing, because she needs Su Changfeng and, therefore, cannot act arrogantly.

"You Meng, you, a dignified Primordial Master, bowing low before me, a lowly Sect Master, isn’t that quite inappropriate?" Su Changfeng asked.

"For so many years, I’ve wanted nothing more than to become an expert in the Holy Spirit Realm. But after pursuing this for so long and fruitlessly, I’ve even questioned whether this realm truly exists. Yet after meeting you, I believe that the legendary Holy Spirit Realm is indeed real, and you are the one who can make me a Holy Spirit Expert," You Meng confessed.

Now, she no longer needed to hide anything. Su Changfeng wasn’t a fool; naturally, he already knew what she was thinking.

"But what reason do I have to help you become a Primordial Master? Given my current strength, it’s likely I could dominate the Three Kingdoms. Why should I cultivate a rival to challenge myself?" Su Changfeng asked, raising a brow at her.

With his current strength, he could be considered the top expert on the Tianyuan Continent, so naturally, Su Changfeng had no need to help You Meng increase her power.

Anyone with a little intelligence wouldn’t want to nurture someone with equal power through their own hand, creating their own rival threat, would they?

Besides, Su Changfeng is not yet a true Holy Spirit Expert himself; his ability to enhance is merely supported by the bone’s strength.

If he helps You Meng become a Holy Spirit Expert, she’d gain strength greater than his, and Su Changfeng couldn’t guarantee she’d willingly be under his control.

Faced with Su Changfeng’s concern, You Meng was momentarily speechless, as she couldn’t prove that she would never betray him. His worry was quite reasonable, wasn’t it?

However, she has pursued this goal for so many years solely to experience what the Holy Spirit Realm is like. For this goal, she’s willing to bear some cost.

Her life’s pursuit revolves around this. Without this goal, she wouldn’t know what she lives for.

"I know you’ve previously created a contract that can be used on people. If you don’t trust me, you can form a contract with me," You Meng said softly, bowing her head.

Su Changfeng frowned, entirely taken aback by her words.

You see, contracts of this kind are used by Beast Tamers on Exotic Beasts to ensure their loyalty. Beforehand, Su Changfeng, in order to control Zhou Hongyun, had slightly altered the contract so it could be used on humans.

But he never imagined You Meng would willingly be subjected to someone else’s power.

Because once the contract is formed, You Meng would become a puppet under his control. Whatever she wants to do must first get Su Changfeng’s consent, and most importantly, once the contract is successfully established, with just a thought, Su Changfeng could kill You Meng.

If it comes to that, even if she does raise her power, what meaning would it hold?

"You Meng, have you gone mad? Do you truly wish to be under my control?" Su Changfeng frowned at You Meng, mainly because coming from her, he felt the credibility seemed rather low.

"I’m sincere, I’m not joking with you," You Meng replied.
