The City’s Strongest Son-in-law Chapter 1672 - 1671: Shock
Previously on The City’s Strongest Son-in-law...
Even when Wu Chen was very famous back then, Ye Qingtian was still a nobody.
Ye Qingtian recalls Wu Chen had already retreated to live in isolation on the mountain by then.
"Wu Chen had retreated previously, yet during this competition, he appeared once more, even facing off against Su Changfeng as his opponent," Ye Tian continued.
Ye Qingtian’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing this. Although Ye Tian hadn’t detailed what had happened, Ye Tian’s expression already told him everything!
Su Changfeng actually defeated Wu Chen?!
Ye Qingtian couldn’t believe what he was hearing; he even thought it was all fabricated. Yet Ye Tian’s reaction convinced Ye Qingtian that it seemed to be true!
Ye Tian continued: "After Su Changfeng defeated Wu Chen, he rose to fame, and now everyone believes Su Changfeng will certainly be the final champion!"
Ye Qingtian was greatly shocked, thinking of what Shangguan Sichen had said long ago; was this why Shangguan Sichen was willing to release him?
However, Shangguan Sichen’s status and position in this world are extraordinary. Even if Su Changfeng defeated Wu Chen, Shangguan Sichen shouldn’t be afraid of Su Changfeng.
After all, Shangguan Sichen also has many experts behind him. To deal with Su Changfeng would certainly be a very simple matter!
Could it be that Su Changfeng is even more formidable than they realize?!
Ye Qingtian was silent for a while, then looked at Ye Tian and said: "But how did Su Changfeng suddenly become so powerful?"
Ye Tian also felt very puzzled about this; previously, Ye Tian had inquired but couldn’t find out anything.
Thus, Ye Tian said: "I’m not sure. I also asked Huo Tian before, but he knew nothing about it either."
"Alright, I understand. I’ll go and talk to Huo Tian,"
Ye Qingtian nodded. Previously, Su Changfeng had always been following Huo Tian to practice, so Huo Tian should know how powerful Su Changfeng truly is.
Upon reaching home, Shangguan Feihong and Ye Weijun hadn’t returned yet, and as for Huo Tian, seeing Ye Qingtian didn’t find it shocking unlike Ye Tian. After all, Huo Tian knew Ye Qingtian was actually alive.
"I expected you’d come back, but I didn’t anticipate you’d return at this moment," Huo Tian said.
Ye Qingtian felt helpless upon hearing this. It seemed Huo Tian knew he would surely be released by Shangguan Sichen.
Yet Ye Qingtian himself never thought Shangguan Sichen would release him.
Ye Tian said: "Do you know there’s actually a prison within the Shangguan Family, and that place is basically a point of no return. Anyone confined there is only released upon death."
Huo Tian nodded, smiling: "I know, but I thought you’d return, and it seems my assumption was right."
Ye Qingtian sighed helplessly. Actually, Ye Qingtian’s appearance here has nothing to do with him; Shangguan Sichen released him entirely because of Su Changfeng.
If it weren’t for Su Changfeng, Ye Qingtian would probably still be imprisoned.
Thus, Ye Qingtian said helplessly: "This has nothing to do with me; I never thought I’d come out. My presence here now is due to Su Changfeng."
Huo Tian also cherished Su Changfeng dearly, and when Shangguan Feihong was always very harsh on Su Changfeng, only Huo Tian silently treated Su Changfeng well.
Yet even Huo Tian felt very puzzled about the changes occurring with Su Changfeng.
Even Ye Qingtian saying he would return due to Su Changfeng?
Huo Tian furrowed his brows and said: "Why would you say that?"
Although Su Changfeng is indeed very famous now, Shangguan Sichen might not release Ye Qingtian just because of Su Changfeng’s fame.
"Shangguan Sichen personally found me, even released me, and told me he himself is very afraid of Shangguan Sichen, which I find hard to believe," Ye Qingtian said, shaking his head.
Even on his return, Ye Qingtian didn’t understand why Shangguan Sichen feared Su Changfeng.
Someone like Shangguan Sichen shouldn’t feel any fear because of Su Changfeng’s current status. Thinking of this now, Ye Qingtian also found it very mysterious.
"Does Shangguan Sichen himself admit to it?"
Huo Tian said in shock, equally shocked by Ye Qingtian’s words.
"Yes!"
Ye Qingtian nodded. Not for being here, he might even feel like he’s dreaming.
"Shangguan Sichen came here some days ago, and I thought at that time Wu Chen might suddenly become Su Changfeng’s opponent, likely related to Shangguan Sichen, since after Wu Chen retreated, no one had seen him."
"The person who could have Wu Chen come back is likely only Shangguan Sichen. But even if Su Changfeng defeated Wu Chen, Shangguan Sichen has no reason to fear Su Changfeng," Huo Tian said very puzzled.
Though Su Changfeng’s status has constantly risen since defeating Wu Chen, becoming the most formidable person in Yanjing, there’s still no way to compare him with Shangguan Sichen, right?
Ye Qingtian furrowed his brows and said: "Wu Chen came here likely because Shangguan Sichen initially wanted to see how skilled Su Changfeng truly is. But the reason behind this is unclear."
Huo Tian also found this reasoning makes sense, but what is the real reason?
Huo Tian shook his head and said: "Maybe only Shangguan Sichen himself knows."
Ye Qingtian furrowed his brows and continued: "If these matters concern Su Changfeng and Shangguan Sichen, then I wouldn’t ask Su Changfeng to say anything about it. I even feel now Su Changfeng can’t be seen as a child anymore."
"Whatever Su Changfeng does, he has his own ideas and goals. I believe Su Changfeng now knows clearly what he’s doing it for."
Basically, Ye Qingtian now knows what Su Changfeng has been doing all this time. Knowing that Su Changfeng has even established a company himself, Ye Qingtian felt very gratified.
