Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 885 Meeting Between Mother-in-Law and Daughter-in-Law (3k2!)
Opinions on the Soul Palace have always been varied and differing.

Some people condemn it as heretical, some envy its arrogance, but most people fear it like the plague.

Without exception, no one has ever said that the Soul Palace is weak!

Even the alchemists who harbored the deepest hatred for the Soul Palace never dared to speak ill of its strength when mentioning the name of the Soul Palace.

This is true reputation!
Now, that gentle and kind girl, whom Xiao Li once regarded as his younger sister-in-law, has transformed into the evil young master of the most powerful force in Zhongzhou.
Even though Xiao Li considered himself to have an extremely strong mental fortitude, he was completely unable to withstand the enormous impact of this, and even his voice began to tremble.

"Miss Ruoruo"

Xiao Li stammered, unsure whether to be happy or worried.

Seeing this, Hun Ruoruo felt even more agitated. She sighed softly, forced herself to maintain her usual demure demeanor, and said in a low voice, "Second Brother Xiao Li, this matter is complicated. Please allow me to explain it to you later."

"oh oh"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Li seemed to snap out of his daze. Noticing the slightly strange atmosphere on the scene, he quickly chuckled and said, "Look at my memory, I almost forgot. You've come all the way from Zhongzhou, you probably haven't had a proper rest yet, have you?"

"This isn't the place to talk. Since you've come all this way, why don't we go back to the Xiao family home for a visit? How about it?"

Xiao Li's words immediately drew agreement from those around him. Even Xiao Zhan, who had been frozen in place, reacted and expressed his approval.

"I can't refuse such hospitality."

Looking at the familiar faces before him, Xiao Yan clicked his tongue and then joked, "Well, since Second Brother has spoken, why don't we stay here for a few more days?"

Sensing the other party's large hand that kept causing trouble, Hun Ruoruo's pretty face changed slightly. She tried to shake it off without making a sound, but after struggling for a few times to no avail, she finally said something in a low voice in annoyance.

"what ever."

"Got it!"

Xiao Yan chuckled and shamelessly agreed, then looked at Xiao Li and teased, "In that case, I'll have to trouble you, Second Brother."

"Hahaha, you little rascal, you're being so polite with your second brother!"

Seeing that Xiao Yan looked exactly the same as before, Xiao Li finally relaxed, turned around, and laughed loudly: "Thanks to Miss Ruoruo, today's day of great battle is probably going to turn into a day of great joy."

"We, who belong to Gama, shall go home!"

Although Xiao Li's cultivation level was not particularly high, the words he shouted at this moment resonated with everyone present.

"go home!!!"

The soldiers, who had been fully armed, removed their armor and cheered as they embraced each other. Even the members of the Lion Nether Sect, who had previously been enemies, put aside their differences and showed expressions of relief.

For soldiers, dying on the battlefield is certainly the best ending, but returning home safely is the only hope of their elderly wives and daughters who are eagerly waiting for them.

"Just come back."

Silently watching the young man chatting and laughing with the crowd, Xiao Zhan smiled faintly and said this.

With Xiao Yan in charge, the distance between Xuanhuang Fortress and the Jia Ma Empire naturally becomes negligible.

With the Ancient Dragon Wings, his spatial mastery alone is already on par with that of ordinary half-saints. In addition, the space in the Northwest Region is extremely fragile compared to that in the Central Plains, so he can easily create even the boundary gate that connects the two worlds.

Such a miraculous skill refreshed everyone's understanding, even the strongest player on the field, Lion Sky, looked like he had seen a ghost.

You must know, he is the Heavenly Venerable of the Soul Palace!
In his understanding, even the most venerable and respected Heavenly Venerable Sijiu would likely be far from capable of such a feat, let alone an ordinary Heavenly Venerable like himself.
"As expected of the prince consort, he accomplished what we could not do with ease!"

Lion Sky looked on with longing and admired Xiao Yan to the point of complete awe.

Peak Dou Zun? Half-Saint?
No, at this moment, Shi Tian didn't even want to dwell on just how terrifying Xiao Yan's strength was; his mind was filled with only one thought—

He actually hooked up with a prostitute!

What are titles like "Battle Venerable" and "Half-Saint" compared to the title of "Imperial Son-in-Law"? They're nothing but a fart.

This child must possess great fortune and extraordinary abilities.

Thinking of this, Lion Sky took a deep breath and pondered, "Even if I can't stay by his side, I must stay by the old master's side. If I can get some benefit from it, Lord Four Nine Heavenly Venerable will definitely praise my Lion Dark Sect."

"At that time, my name, Lion Sky, will surely resound throughout the Dou Qi Continent!"

But soon, Lion Sky's idea fell through.

Upon arriving at the Gama Empire, the soldiers on the field bowed and bid farewell before heading towards the town. The Xiao family, however, did not choose to return to the capital but instead went back to Wutan City, which they had been away from for a long time.

Upon arriving in Wutan City, Jia Xingtian and his companions wisely stopped. Apart from Hai Bodong and Queen Medusa, the rest of them did not choose to enter the Xiao family compound, thus maintaining peace and tranquility.

Similarly, in a place where even Great Dou Masters are few and far between, Wutan City is clearly not a place that can accommodate a great god like Lion Sky.
"You mean, Uncle Xiao doesn't want you to be his dog or lion?"

Looking at the sorrowful face of Shi Tian, ​​Hun Ruoruo frowned and sighed softly, "In my Soul Palace, there is no business of serving as someone else's mount."

"Now that your misunderstanding with the Xiao family has been resolved, Mo Yu will naturally not cause you any trouble, so there is no need to be so timid."

"No, Miss, you are unaware of my true nature. My dream is to spread my fame throughout the Dou Qi Continent and become a well-known figure!"

Lion King kowtowed and hurriedly said, "With my talent, it is obviously impossible to do this. Therefore, there is only one method left."

"That means being someone's dog!"

Lion Sky's eyes were bloodshot as he excitedly said, "As long as his reputation is renowned enough, then as his mount, my reputation will surely spread throughout the continent as well!"

Listening to the other party's impassioned words, Hun Ruoruo couldn't help but hold her forehead and rub her throbbing temples. That Mo Yu guy always manages to find these oddballs to pledge their loyalty to her.

"In that case, go to the Xiao family's gate and replace those stone lions."

"What?! Thank you for your guidance, Miss. I will obey!"

"Don't bother me anymore if there's nothing else."

She impatiently waved away Shi Tian, ​​then gazed at the brilliant lights in the Xiao family's reception hall, resting her chin on her hand, lost in thought.

Gradually, he became somewhat lost in thought.

The scenes of annulling the engagement, making deals, cultivating, and frolicking in the Xiao family in the past, like fleeting clouds, kept appearing in her mind.

In fact, nothing has changed.

The only thing that has changed is that the girl who teased Xiao Yan back then has moved from outside the game to inside it.

"Ah, it's so annoying!"

Her thoughts grew increasingly agitated, and Hun Ruoruo finally couldn't help but ruffle her hair and bury her head in her knees: "Why did I say so many nonsensical things back then?"

If she hadn't so resolutely declared she would never marry, then even if things were awkward now, she should at least be able to face Xiao Yan's family with some composure.

But unfortunately, there is no if.

Hun Ruoruo still remembers the scene when Xiao Zhan talked to her. His unusually kind attitude and caring manner clearly showed that he had long regarded her as his daughter-in-law.

But she was completely unaware of this and even accepted the other party's kindness, not knowing that those 'free' acts of kindness had already secretly come with a price tag.

Yes, so she lost money.

Not only resources, but everything she owned, including her undergarment, and even herself, was lost.

Thinking about this, Hun Ruoruo, who never did anything that didn't lose money, felt a tightness in her chest and shortness of breath for the first time—

This was the first time she had ever lost so completely.

"Xiao Yan."

Glancing at the girl sitting alone outside the courtyard, muttering to herself, Hai Bodong swirled the wine in his glass, offering a subtle reminder.

"Ok?"

Following the other person's gaze, Xiao Yan stared at the stunningly beautiful girl who stood apart from the crowd, and was momentarily stunned.

However, before he could react, the drunken Xiao Li reached out and poked Xiao Yan in the waist with his elbow, grinning mischievously, "What are you waiting for? It's a rare opportunity, why don't you let your sister-in-law meet your father?"

"Don't tell us that after all this time, you still haven't made any progress."

Xiao Ding, who was originally sitting at home, also cast a mocking glance his way.

Suddenly pushed by Xiao Li, Xiao Yan, who hadn't used his fighting spirit to digest the alcohol, was thrown forward uncontrollably and stumbled out of the hall.

"hiss--"

Xiao Yan gasped sharply, and couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Two bachelors who haven't found wives in their own lives have the nerve to criticize me?"

He was about to get up when he suddenly stopped in his tracks, looked up, and was immediately struck by the girl's dreamlike, beautiful face reflected in the twilight.

"Uh, Ruoruo."

Xiao Yan's face immediately stiffened.

Although the other party agreed to go to the Xiao family with her, she seemed to be quite nervous about meeting Xiao Zhan, which even affected her mood at one point.

Now it seems things are even more serious.
"What are you here for?"

Hun Ruoruo said stiffly with a straight face, "Isn't it better to continue playing the hero in front of those people? Xiao Mei is practically feeding you wine."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan sobered up a bit. He then leaned forward and, with a smile, asked the girl near her delicate earlobe, "Jealous?"

Hun Ruoruo opened her mouth and bit back: "Who's jealous of you?"

Although Xiao Yan's injuries have not yet healed, his physical condition has recovered considerably. No matter how much Hun Ruoruo bared her teeth and claws like a tabby cat, she was not harmed in the slightest.

In front of everyone, the two of them joked and laughed, just like they did back in Wutan City, with no more pretense.

".never mind."

After a while, as if realizing that her attack could not break through this guy's defense, Hun Ruoruo snorted coldly, glanced at the group of people with mocking smiles not far away, her pretty face slightly reddened, and then she turned her head away and slowly stood up.

"Ruoruo?"

Xiao Yan was stunned when he saw the girl suddenly stand up.

"What are you still doing?"

Hun Ruoruo looked slightly unnatural, but still said stiffly, "It's just seeing your father once. I'm not the kind of person who goes back on my word."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's astonishment instantly turned into delight, and he grinned broadly, saying, "Yes, sir!"
