Chapter 26: Powerful Suppression, Dragon Caiwei Returns

The Wang Family Elder breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Wang Xuan was not dead, only severely injured.

He wanted to flare up in anger, but remembering how Xiao Fan had shifted the position of the falling seal earlier, he shook his head with a bitter smile. If the opponent hadn't shown mercy, Wang Xuan would likely be dead!

“Xiao Fan actually won...”

“He defeated Wang Xuan, the fourth-tier Huaqi Realm Wang Xuan?”

“My God, I’m not dreaming, am I...”

Many people around were in a daze, finding it all inconceivable. A "waste" son-in-law actually defeated the Genius Wang Xuan?

With this kind of ability, you came to be a live-in son-in-law?

This is the Xiao Family's "waste"? If this is a "waste," then what are we?

At this moment, the disciples of the various families felt extremely conflicted. It was hard to accept this reality; they felt their hearts had taken a massive blow.

But they had to admit that they were indeed inferior to this "son-in-law."

Xiao Fan stood where he was and took a deep breath. Using the Throat Crushing Lock just now had consumed most of his remaining strength, but the power had not disappointed him.

If he had aimed that move at Wang Xuan's neck... The members of the Dragon Family looked at Xiao Fan with complex expressions. Dragon Anhai never expected the son-in-law he had always looked down upon to be so strong. Dragon Yi's face was stiff; he hadn't expected Xiao Fan to win, and his own actions? They had only served to build the other's reputation.

Dragon Xiaotian's expression was complicated, his thoughts unknown.

Seeing Xiao Fan win, Dragon Miaoyin was so moved that tears almost fell. Seeing Xiao Fan covered in blood, she felt incredibly pained.

“Who else wants to challenge me?”

At this time, the stationary Xiao Fan turned around and calmly looked at the disciples of those families.

At this moment, Xiao Fan was covered in blood and filth, with over a dozen bloody gashes on his body. Even the webbing of his right thumb had split open from using the Throat Crushing Lock... He was covered in injuries, but facing this Xiao Fan, they felt no Battle Intent at all.

Was this a joke? The guy fought like a madman; even Wang Xuan was nearly killed. Would they go up just to seek death?

Under his gaze, these young Family disciples all backed down, lowering their heads and not daring to meet Xiao Fan's eyes.

At this moment, Xiao Fan thoroughly solidified his title as the number one person among the young Family disciples present!

Dragon Anhai looked around. He knew it was time for things to end. The combat power Xiao Fan displayed made him see him in a new light; he even estimated that in a few years, Xiao Fan could reach his current level of cultivation.

“Everyone, I think this sparring between children can stop now. Let’s go back and continue drinking.”

When Dragon Anhai spoke, the elders of the various families were naturally willing. Especially those whose disciples were too scared to speak; they couldn't wait for it to end.

The people around dispersed and walked toward the main hall. Everyone deliberately kept their distance from Xiao Fan as they moved, afraid of provoking this S煞星!

Dragon Miaoyin rushed over immediately, checking Xiao Fan's injuries from top to bottom. She only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming there were no fatal wounds.

Xiao Fan smiled. “Don't worry, I'm fine.”

“Let's go back. I'll apply some medicine for you and you can change into new clothes,” Dragon Miaoyin said, pulling Xiao Fan to leave.

Xiao Fan didn't move. Instead, he shook his head and smiled. “It's fine. My injuries aren't serious. I can go back and change by myself. Today is your father's birthday; it wouldn't be good if you left with me. Wait for me here, I'll be back after I change.”

Because of her birthmark, this was the first time in many years Dragon Miaoyin had attended her father's birthday banquet. Xiao Fan didn't want her to leave halfway to accompany him.

Seeing her still hesitating, Xiao Fan spoke softly, “Don't worry, these are just superficial wounds. I'll be back soon.”

Only then did Dragon Miaoyin listen and turn to enter the main hall... In mid-air, the Long Family Old Ancestor's eyes shone with a strange light. Others might not be clear, but he saw it very clearly.

“This kid is actually settling and tempering himself during battle. Good lad... bold enough. But what exactly was that Martial Skill he used at the end? Its power was so strong.”

Back at the courtyard, Xiao Fan's Divine Sense entered the Star Chart. He consumed some remaining Spirit Medicine to recover from his injuries. There wasn't much left after his last battle with Dragon Xiaotian.

Fortunately, he had maintained his sense of proportion and wasn't heavily injured; they were all just superficial wounds.

After taking the medicine in the Star Chart, Xiao Fan opened his eyes, a smile appearing at the corners of his mouth. “As expected, improving strength through battle is the fastest...”

In this battle with Wang Xuan, he could have directly found an opportunity to use the Throat Crushing Lock to defeat the opponent.

However, Xiao Fan had changed his mind midway. He wanted to improve his strength, using Wang Xuan as a stepping stone to temper himself, pushing himself to the limit to seek growth in strength. Now, Xiao Fan was confident he could enter closed-door cultivation to reach the third-tier Great Perfection and then shatter the third star... In the Dragon Family's main hall, the atmosphere was somewhat low after the recent match.

The Family elders at Dragon Anhai's table couldn't save face. After all, their own direct-line geniuses had been defeated by a live-in son-in-law... And the geniuses at Dragon Xiaotian's table were all too embarrassed to say a word... After all, they had lost face big time.

As for Wang Xuan, Su Ming, and Geng Yu, those who were unconscious remained unconscious, and those receiving treatment were away; none were present. Dragon Miaoyin sat quietly without speaking.

As for the guests at the other tables, seeing that the two main tables were silent, they didn't dare to speak loudly either.

Dragon Anhai felt a bit awkward. His birthday had suddenly become so full of Death Qi; his mood was certainly not good.

At this moment, a servant suddenly rushed in from outside. “Master, the Fourth Young Miss has returned!”

Hearing this, Dragon Anhai was overjoyed. “Haha, where is Caiwei?”

“Father, I'm back.”

Everyone looked toward the door. A woman in a green robe walked in. She had a tender face and watery phoenix eyes. She didn't seem as dignified and proper as traditional women, but rather gave off a lively and cute feeling.

Dragon Caiwei skipped over to Dragon Anhai, who doted on her and stroked her face.

“You haven't been home for so long, don't you miss your father?”

Dragon Caiwei smiled. “Not at all, didn't I make it back in time for Father's birthday?”

Dragon Caiwei was Dragon Anhai's fourth child. She was usually his most pampered and was also the youngest of all his children.

Dragon Anhai had three wives. The first wife gave birth to Dragon Xiaotian and Dragon Yi; she was Dragon Anhai's primary wife. The second wife gave birth to Dragon Miaoyin but died not long after her birth. The third wife was Dragon Caiwei's mother.

Women's status in the Dragon Family was very low. Even Dragon Anhai's primary wife was the same; she wasn't even qualified to attend an occasion like today.

But Dragon Caiwei's mother was different from the others. Her mother's Family was powerful, and after an argument with Dragon Anhai, she simply went back to her parents' home.

This time, Dragon Caiwei had also returned from her mother's side.

“Father, I heard a live-in son-in-law came to the Family and married Second Sister. Where is he?”
