Jaw-Dropping Son-in-Law

“What do we do? Do we just keep waiting?” Ming asked with a worried frown while pacing about anxiously.

A few days ago, Chu Yuan's messenger arrived at Sky Mountain and urged the Demonic Duo to head back to China with Tang Yun as soon as possible.

Naturally, they knew something serious must've happened over at Jiangdong.

After all, Chu Yuan wouldn't have summoned them back unless it was something even he couldn't handle.

Xuan kept quiet as he stared at the top of Sky Mountain with a solemn expression.

“Say something, Xuan! Do we continue waiting? It doesn't look like Ms. Tang is going to come out anytime soon. Something big must've happened if Old Mr. Chu demands our immediate return! I think we should hurry back to Jiangdong and help him out!” Ming urged.

Xuan's frown deepened as he said after giving it some thought, “Old Mr. Chu is a god realm master. What sort of danger do you think he's in if he's ordering our return so urgently?”

That question caught Ming completely off guard.

“C-Could it be the War God Castle?”

That was the only possible answer Ming could come up with after racking his brain.

After all, he believed that the people in War God Castle were the only ones capable of posing a threat to the Chu Sect.

Xuan shook his head. “The supreme grandmasters from the War God Castle may be able to put up a fight against the others, but they're nothing but bugs to Old Mr. Chu. He could easily squash them all with a single strike if he so much as felt like it. Therefore, those from the War God Castle are not the ones we should be worried about.”

“What is it, then?” Ming asked.

Xuan fell silent for a brief moment before replying, “There are only two possibilities, the first being that kid has returned.”

What?

Ming gasped in shock when he heard that.

“Are you referring to Zhenghong's son, Chu Tianfan? That's impossible! That kid killed himself back then, didn't he?” he exclaimed in disbelief.

“You and I have both witnessed what he is capable of, so you should know that he's the most gifted member of the Chu family we've ever seen. He has Chu Yunyang's blood running through his veins, so there's no way he'd die that easily. I've always had a feeling that Chu Tianfan survived that ordeal,” Xuan replied solemnly.

Ming disagreed with him, though. “I think you're overestimating that kid a little too much, Xuan. As gifted as he may be, Old Mr. Chu had him surrounded with the most powerful fighters from all over the world! There's no way he'd make it out of there alive! Maybe you should tell me the second possibility instead.”

“The second possibility is intervention from The Grand Old Lady.”

Huh?

Ming went pale the moment he heard that. His head felt like it would explode from the shock alone.

“A-Are you serious? That's not possible, right?”

He couldn't bring himself to imagine how things would turn out if Chu Yuan's mother were to intervene.
