I saw that you were so imposing and extraordinary during the day, and I was quite taken with you. I happened to obtain a pot of fine wine, so I wished to share a drink with you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who doesn't know what drinking late at night implies?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coupled with Komurasaki’s flower-like face, her large, watery eyes, and her soft, alluring voice, even an iron man would be three-tenths melted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Luo Xing, who had long been on guard and knew Komurasaki’s true identity, felt only amusement in his heart, while his face put on an expression of infatuation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For a beauty to show such kindness, I am truly flattered!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took the opportunity to grab Komurasaki’s jade-like hands, half-embraced her, and they entered the room together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Komurasaki offered half-hearted resistance as she nestled into Luo Xing’s arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two walked straight to the side of the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Komurasaki said in a delicate voice: \"My lord, no need to rush. Let us first share a cup of nuptial wine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then broke free and poured two cups of wine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One for her, one for Luo Xing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This wine definitely has a problem!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Xing appeared infatuated, but deep within his pupils, he was perfectly clear-headed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not refuse; he wanted to see exactly what Kozuki Hiyori was planning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two crossed arms and drank the nuptial wine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Komurasaki’s face flushed red, looking shy and hesitant to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Xing moved to embrace Komurasaki, but suddenly touched his forehead and said: \"My head is so dizzy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he collapsed onto the bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Komurasaki’s beautiful red lips curled as she glanced at the \"unconscious\" Luo Xing:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I thought you were so extraordinary during the day, but it turns out you’re no different from those other stinking men!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But this is good; it makes things easier for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Komurasaki stood up and went to rummage through Luo Xing’s luggage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After searching for a long time, she did not find what she was looking for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s not here. How could it not be here? Could the Monster Cells not be with the Beasts' Imperial Son-in-Law, but with Plague Queen instead?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Komurasaki was very confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That shouldn't be right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Monster Cells were invented by the Beasts' Imperial Son-in-Law, and his status was clearly higher than Queen’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reasonably and logically, the Monster Cells should be with Luo Xing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A voice behind her, sounding half-smiling, made Komurasaki’s face turn pale with fright!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, Miss Hiyori, you came looking for the Monster Cells. I’m truly sorry, I didn't bring them at all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>21. Luo Xing’s Strength, the Canary in the Cage (Seeking flowers, ratings, and monthly tickets)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice in her ear was like a thunderclap, leaving Komurasaki’s mind blank for an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long while, she turned around with a trembling body, looked at the man who was hugging his chest and smiling half-heartedly, and said bitterly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You... were you just pretending earlier?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When... when was I exposed?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Komurasaki was very puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just now, she definitely hadn't shown any flaws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, she had been doing this for over a decade. From a very young age, she had mastered exquisite acting skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Xing shrugged, but his words made Komurasaki feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Before you even walked into this room, I knew you were trouble, Miss Hiyori.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Komurasaki’s legs went weak, and she almost couldn't stand steady; her exquisite, flawless face turned frighteningly pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You know my identity too. Orochi, Kaido—do you know about them as well?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not exactly. Currently, only I know your true identity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Xing paced over to stand in front of Komurasaki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He extended a finger and hooked the beauty’s delicate chin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kozuki Hiyori was like a lonely little beast, trembling, completely unable to resist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the next moment, she bit her lip hard, actually gathered her courage, and dodged Luo Xing’s finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Xing gave a light \"Oh,\" and said with surprise:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As expected of a woman who dared to infiltrate the enemy’s base for over a decade; you truly have some guts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Komurasaki replied word by word: \"Because I am the daughter of the Kozuki family!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A trace of admiration flashed in Luo Xing’s eyes, but he immediately mocked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well said. However, it’s a pity that without sufficient strength to back it up, all the courage in the world is in vain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Komurasaki bit her lower lip tightly, her whole body filled with a sense of powerlessness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She already knew that in front of this man, deception, courage, and charm were all completely meaningless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Before you kill me, can I ask you a question?\" Komurasaki said after a moment of silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ask away.\" Luo Xing was indifferent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You just said you didn't bring the Monster Cells at all. Can I take that to mean you are deceiving Orochi?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Very smart!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Xing snapped his fingers and laughed:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I admire you more and more. In this situation, you still have the mood to think about other things.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why are you doing this? Aren't your Beasts Pirates and Orochi in a cooperative relationship?\" Komurasaki pressed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, no, no, it’s not a cooperative relationship. Kurozumi Orochi is just a dog under my father-in-law. If a dog doesn't listen, of course, it must be slaughtered.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Xing’s tone was casual, as if he were talking about some trivial matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Komurasaki’s body shook violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She never expected that Luo Xing’s goal was actually to kill Kurozumi Orochi!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But another problem arose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he wanted to kill Kurozumi Orochi, why hold a ceremony, invite famous figures from all over Wano, and even broadcast it nationwide using video Den Den Mushi?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Komurasaki could ask, a loud crash suddenly occurred; the door was shattered, and a figure rushed in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Hiyori, run!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The figure’s voice was urgent. While speaking, he drew his sword and slashed toward Luo Xing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Denjiro!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Komurasaki recognized the figure as Denjiro.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, Denjiro had seen that she hadn't returned for so long, realized something had happened to her, and came to save her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Komurasaki took a step, intending to run; she could not let Denjiro’s sacrifice go to waste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the next second, she froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her beautiful eyes were filled with horror!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She saw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man named Luo Xing suddenly turned his palm black, casually swatted Denjiro’s sword aside, then leaned in and delivered a palm-blade strike across Denjiro’s shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Denjiro let out a miserable scream as his entire right arm, which was holding the sword, was sliced off!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, that palm, which was like a demon’s, moved upward and fiercely gripped Denjiro’s neck, making it so the latter couldn't even let out a scream!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Xing’s voice said calmly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems I’ve never shown my strength, so now any stray cat or dog dares to attack me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dead silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hellish dead silence.\u003C\u002Fp>",1212,"2026-06-16T21:07:38.461Z","2026-06-16T21:36:16.474Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","ee3d4ec6b221c0dd9d59b3e329551f3fe643a97f9636f14ccb69fe5dc18d38d3","father-in-law-kaido-forging-the-strongest-beast--chapter-19","father-in-law-kaido-forging-the-strongest-beast--chapter-17",289,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffather-in-law-kaido-forging-the-strongest-beast--cover.jpg"]
