The City’s Strongest Son-in-law Chapter 1460 - 1459: Facing It Together
Previously on The City’s Strongest Son-in-law...
Wang Junyi hurriedly said, "Master Aunt, where are you going?"
"I’m going to the Sourceless Forest." Chen Qingqing replied coldly.
Upon hearing this, Wang Junyi panicked immediately and rushed over to grab Chen Qingqing. However, before he could say anything, his abdomen was hit by a punch from Chen Qingqing.
Wang Junyi cried out in pain and said, "Master Aunt, please don’t go. Master plans to use the power of the Heavenly Punishment against the Silver Flood Dragon. With your abilities, if you go there, not only will you be unable to help Master, but you might also cause trouble for him."
Chen Qingqing turned around and looked coldly at Wang Junyi, saying, "Then what do you expect me to do? Just let him venture into danger alone?"
"Only Master can deal with the Silver Flood Dragon. At such a critical moment, you must not hold Master back. If Master gets into trouble because he is concerned about you, you’ll regret it for the rest of your life." Though Wang Junyi didn’t want to discourage Chen Qingqing this way, under the current circumstances, he had no other way to stop her.
"I can protect myself." Chen Qingqing said coldly.
"Are you sure you can protect yourself against the power of the Heavenly Punishment? If you go, you’ll only distract Master from focusing on the Silver Flood Dragon. You might disrupt his plans instead. Do you think what you’re doing is right?" Wang Junyi gritted his teeth.
Chen Qingqing walked up to Wang Junyi, her eyes filled with murderous intent.
Wang Junyi showed no fear at all, staring at Chen Qingqing and continued, "You have no idea about the power of the Heavenly Punishment, nor do you understand the strength of the Silver Flood Dragon. You can’t even handle Yu Changfeng."
"Shut up!" Chen Qingqing angrily clamped her hand around Wang Junyi’s neck, and if she exerted even a little force, Wang Junyi would really be in mortal danger.
Yet, Wang Junyi was not afraid at all. He knew in his heart that he must stop Chen Qingqing; otherwise she might disrupt all of Su Changfeng’s plans.
"Have you forgotten what happened before? Master rushed back from afar because you couldn’t match Yu Changfeng’s strength. You think you’re impressive and can help Master, but now you can’t even beat Yu Changfeng." Wang Junyi continued.
Chen Qingqing was mainly too worried about Su Changfeng, which was why she insisted on going to the Sourceless Forest. As for whether she could actually help Su Changfeng, she hadn’t considered it.
Wang Junyi’s words indeed hit her hard, but he was right. If she couldn’t even handle Yu Changfeng, how could she help Su Changfeng against the Silver Flood Dragon?
If she went recklessly, she might indeed end up holding Su Changfeng back, as Wang Junyi said. Thus, Su Changfeng would not only have to deal with the Silver Flood Dragon but also take care of her.
Seeing that Chen Qingqing finally seemed to have no intention of leaving, Wang Junyi was relieved and advised, "Master Aunt, the only thing we can do now is wait for Master here. On the Tianyuan Continent, he’s the only one capable of resolving this matter. Anyone else going would be going to their death."
Chen Qingqing took a deep breath and finally let go of Wang Junyi.
Wang Junyi struggled to stand up, looked at Chen Qingqing, and asked, "Master Aunt, do you believe in Master?"
"Of course I believe in him." Chen Qingqing said without hesitation.
"That’s good. I believe in him too. He will definitely handle this matter smoothly." Wang Junyi said.
"This time, he’s risking himself for the Tianyuan Continent. If anything happens to him, I will make sure the entire Tianyuan Continent pays the price." Chen Qingqing said expressionlessly.
This sounded somewhat absurd, as with Chen Qingqing’s current abilities, she couldn’t achieve that.
However, Wang Junyi refused inexplicably; he knew she was serious.
Meanwhile, on another side, Jingwu Mountain in Dongling.
Shen Hanxue held the sleeping Ye Nianhai and looked towards the direction of the Sourceless Forest.
Now, no one dared to challenge Jingwu Mountain anymore. Shen Hanxue had overpowered Dongling’s many experts with her strength, and though this situation made many experts hang their heads in shame, no one was willing to risk being brutally beaten by Shen Hanxue.
Gently patting Ye Nianhai’s back, Shen Hanxue murmured, "You haven’t even seen Niannian yet, how can you risk such danger?"
From the moment Shen Hanxue realized Su Changfeng forcibly restrained the aura within his body, she understood his plan. Now that Su Changfeng was in the Sourceless Forest, she was even more convinced of her guess, although she knew better than Su Changfeng that such a plan was bound to fail.
After merging with Fu Yao’s memories, Shen Hanxue knew more about the Silver Flood Dragon than anyone else; it had already undergone the Heavenly Punishment. Su Changfeng wanting to use the Heavenly Punishment against it was like a pipe dream.
Unless a miracle occurred, Su Changfeng was doomed.
"No matter what we have to face, we’ll face it together with you." After saying this, Shen Hanxue stood up.
At that moment, Ye Nianhai seemed to have sensed something and opened his eyes with a face full of innocent curiosity, asking Shen Hanxue, "Mom, are you going to take me away?"
Shen Hanxue smiled and nodded, showing no fear of facing danger, saying, "Yes, we’re going to find Dad now, okay?"
The little one perked up at hearing the word ’Dad’, and his remaining sleepiness vanished, excitedly saying, "Dad? Can we go find Dad now?"
Seeing the little one’s excited look, Shen Hanxue lovingly kissed Ye Nianhai’s little cheek, saying, "Niannian, Dad is currently in a dangerous place. Are you scared?"
Ye Nianhai shook his head seriously and said, "Niannian is not scared. Niannian just wants to be with Dad."
Shen Hanxue nodded and said, "Okay, then we’ll go find Dad soon. When Dad sees Niannian, he’ll definitely be very happy."
Then Shen Hanxue descended the mountain. Ever since she came to Dongling, she had never left Wangyun Mountain. Now that she was about to descend, she immediately attracted the attention of a group of experts.
"She’s going downhill. She’s actually leaving!"
"What does she mean by this? Is she planning to confront someone?"
"Please don’t confront me; I can’t beat her."
"..."
Such a small action made many experts in Dongling wary. This also demonstrated the psychological shadow Shen Hanxue had bestowed upon Dongling’s experts during this time.
Even the Dongling Emperor was startled upon learning of this news, afraid that Shen Hanxue might cause more trouble. After all, no one in Dongling now could stop Shen Hanxue.
Due to this, the Dongling Emperor had to rush over again.
"No need to worry, I’m about to leave. I won’t cause any trouble for you." Shen Hanxue said lightly upon seeing the Dongling Emperor.
