The latter immediately fell to the ground, clutching his face.
The arrogant expression on his face shattered in an instant.
He looked at Qin Luo with an ugly expression.
The force of this slap was unlike the delicate force of his wife's hand - this was excruciatingly painful!
Moreover, he thought indignantly, I only allow my wife to slap me. Since when did I permit this lackey to do so?!
This lackey!! Taking advantage of his master's power!!!
Once I regain my strength in three days, I will annihilate you!!
His initial thought of merely destroying the other's cultivation instantly vanished.
"Your Majesty?!"
Seeing Xiao Tian acting up again, Lin Wanrong's face alternated between shades of green and white with anger.
But for some inexplicable reason, she felt that this usually useless son-in-law suddenly... had an aura of dignity about him.
Why?
What had happened to this son-in-law?
Of course, this layer of dignity instantly dissipated as he was slapped to the ground by Qin Luo. Lin Wanrong snapped back to reality.
She immediately turned to Xiao Tian on the ground and slapped him.
Slap!
"Useless trash!"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! What illness are you suffering from now, Xiao Tian?!"
"I brought you here to kneel and apologize to Miss Su!"
"Why! Why do you keep harming our Lin Family like this!"
Lin Wanrong was utterly disappointed in this useless son-in-law.
A tear slid down from her eye.
She had given Xiao Tian many chances, but this waste just didn't know how to cherish them.
Her Lin Family had treated him so well, yet he repeatedly offended Miss Su everywhere!
Xiao Tian, insulted, humiliated, and beaten, clenched his fists tightly.
Damn it, it was understandable that Wanrong didn't believe he was the Dragon King.
But this lackey... probably due to his low status, also didn't know his identity.
However...
"Su Muwan!! You should know who I am! Do you know what your Su Family will face if you anger me?!"
Xiao Tian shouted angrily at Su Muwan from the ground.
The lackey might not know my identity, Lin Wanrong might not know my identity.
But! You, Su Muwan, should know, right?!
After all, he had already asked his master to spread the news that he was the Dragon King.
Normally, a big family like the Su Family should know this.
"Arrogant!"
This Dragon King must be an idiot, right? How come he never learns his lesson?
Qin Luo sneered, just about to step forward to give him a few more slaps.
"Qin Luo, that's unnecessary."
Su Muwan calmly spoke, stopping Qin Luo, then slowly stood up.
She swept her indifferent gaze over Xiao Tian's angry face.
She calmly revealed Xiao Tian's identity, saying disdainfully, "Your identity? The current Dragon King of the Dragon King Palace?"
Hearing this, Lin Wanrong's expression changed. She hurriedly said to Su Muwan, "Miss Su, this useless trash is not the Dragon King, he's just a madman! Please don't be fooled by this kind of waste!"
Hearing his wife humiliate him like this, Xiao Tian clenched his fists tightly.
But he quickly relaxed, taking a deep breath.
His expression gradually eased.
It's okay, in three days, when the truth is revealed, Wanrong... will understand exactly what kind of top-tier existence I am.
He slowly propped himself up, looking haughtily at Su Muwan, and began to speak, "Since you know who I am, then..."
Before he could finish speaking.
Boom!!!!
A blast of icy true qi, imbued with overwhelming dominance, instantly struck Xiao Tian's chest.
"Puchi!!!"
Xiao Tian was hit by this sudden attack, his eyes nearly popping out. He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, his body flying backward like a kite with cut strings.
Bang!!
Only when he crashed into the wall beside the main door did Xiao Tian stop, slowly sliding down to the ground.
Buzz!!!!
His brain went blank from this strike.
His ears were ringing.
I... was attacked?
All the meridians in my body are shattered, my dantian damaged...
Am I... crippled????
One strike, one strike crippled all my cultivation?!!!
Xiao Tian immediately sensed the condition of his body, his face full of shock and disbelief.
Wh... why?
Xiao Tian coughed up blood, looking up with some terror at Su Muwan, who stood before him with a cold expression, still emanating an aura of icy true qi.
He saw the disdainful look on Su Muwan's face, which deeply etched itself into his mind. Xiao Tian's expression froze, and he asked with a slightly trembling voice, "You... you know I'm the Dragon King?"
Judging by Su Muwan's expression, she should know I'm the Dragon King!
But... but why did she still attack?
Hearing this, Su Muwan slowly withdrew her hand after crippling him with one palm strike.
The icy true qi swirled around her, making Su Muwan appear even more cold and domineering. She looked down at Xiao Tian haughtily and said coolly, "So what if I know? Let alone the Dragon King."
"Even the Dragon King Palace is nothing."
"If they dare come, this young miss can destroy them with a flick of a finger."
"This palm strike, I've helped your master teach you a lesson about being humble."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Tian's expression froze, he was dumbfounded.
What?!
This Su Family's young miss, not only has such powerful strength, but even... such an arrogant personality?!
She actually thinks she can deal with the Dragon King Palace?!
Qin Luo blinked.
Huh?
Xiao Tian is crippled just like that?
What's going on?
According to the original plot, shouldn't Xiao Tian be alive and kicking until the grand finale?
Could it be...
Hiss!
Qin Luo's expression changed in surprise.
Don't tell me we've already reached the "villain severely injures the protagonist and cripples his cultivation, but not only does the protagonist survive, he even rises from the ashes, eventually returning after cultivation to gather his companions and defeat the villain" stage?
At this moment.
[Detected plot derailment in "Urban Son-in-Law Dragon King"!!]
[Now issuing "Protagonist Containment" mission!]
[Mission: Contain Xiao Tian]
[Description: Please help the villain target make the Dragon King Palace do the bidding of others at the "Lin Family Birthday Banquet" three days later!!]
[Reward: Destiny Mental Hospital x1 (Can contain all destined individuals defeated by the master or villain target! All knowledge of the contained individuals will be passed on to the master!)]
(⊙o⊙)
Qin Luo blinked.
Hm?
If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have thought I was in a horror world.
Even containment and mental hospitals have come up.
Qin Luo looked at the dazed Xiao Tian and suddenly had a good idea.
Ah, got it!
Thinking this, Qin Luo looked at Xiao Tian and activated his mental powers.
Swoosh!
[Mystic Ghost Fourteen Needles] activated!!!
Lin Wanrong was so scared her face turned pale.
This world reveres martial arts, and martial arts competitions are held regularly.
But this was indeed the first time she had personally witnessed a powerful expert like Su Muwan who could send someone flying with a distant attack.
It's simply... simply!!
"It's simply unparalleled, Young Miss!" Qin Luo immediately flattered.
Lin Wanrong also came to her senses and praised, "As expected of Miss Su, this trash offended you and got sent flying, which is exactly what he deserves! Even now he's still delusionally believing he's the Dragon King. Miss Su, well done!"
Su Muwan slightly raised her chin, clearly pleased with the praise.

s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever." Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ...

saw a female celebrity tied up and stuffed in the trunk! Little did he know, countless cameras were aimed at him at this moment - this was a new type of reality show. The first randomly selected passerby was caught in less than an hour. But when Xu Moru was selected, things started to take an unexpected turn. "Damn, this isn't how the script goes. This Xu Moru is too bold, he's not following the rules at all." "Crap, is this guy taking it seriously?" "The female celebrity has been scared to tears!"

uld barely embark on the path to immortality. Just as he was on the verge of death, his golden finger awakened. No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight. From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.

e vast world of cultivation, where he becomes the master of the Heavenly Ruins Sacred Hall, a dying old man with barely a tenth of his former cultivation remaining. He is immediately confronted with a deadly crisis: his subordinates have rebelled, and his protectors are forcing him to abdicate. At the critical moment, the system descends from the heavens: [Ding! The host has been detected facing a life-or-death crisis. The system is now officially activated!] [As a gift, you have received the Supreme Beginner’s Pack and awakened the ultimate cheat: ten thousand years of pure cultivation essence every second!] Yin Tianjue: “Wait… ten thousand years of cultivation every second?

Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. You’re the strongest chosen one, blessed with heaven-defying destiny? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. From this day forth, I have only one thing to say: “I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. Now, how exactly are you supposed to deal with that?”
