Chapter 24 Either a live-in son-in-law or three broken legs
Outside Soto, in the suburbs.
Just as the red-haired youth was about to raise his hand, he suddenly felt a powerful gust of wind surging towards him. Without thinking, he activated the Phoenix Rebirth Technique, and with a slight flap of his wings, his figure was blasted back several meters!
boom!
In just a moment, a dazzling golden light grazed past the boy's shadow, snapping a tree behind him in two.
Splash!
Looking at the clean, sharp break in the tree, a bead of cold sweat slid down the boy's forehead.
This attack won't kill anyone, but if you get grazed, you'll at least suffer broken bones and ligaments!
Moreover, if one fails to avoid vital organs, it is not impossible to die on the spot.
"Hongjun!!"
A girl's panicked scream rang out, and then Meng Yiran appeared, her hair disheveled and her figure staggering.
Seeing that Ma Hongjun was unharmed, a trace of color returned to her pale face.
Then, he glared angrily at the two figures behind him, "What are you doing?!"
The moment she saw the boy being attacked, she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and her breath almost stopped.
If he hadn't been unexpectedly strong, he would probably be lying on the ground by now.
"Hmph, this brat laid a hand on you, shouldn't Grandma beat him?"
"Yiran, you're too young and don't have much discernment. This kid doesn't seem like a good person."
Two aged voices rang out, and then an old woman and a tall old man appeared beside Meng Yiran.
The red-haired boy narrowed his eyes and, at that moment, saw the two of them.
The old woman looked to be in her sixties or seventies. Her full head of white hair was neatly combed, and she was in good spirits. Although she had many wrinkles on her face, her skin was as rosy as a baby's.
The old man was burly, with sinister eyes and two dragon-horn-like markings running down his eyelids, which had no eyebrows. His face was covered with wrinkles, and his gray beard covered his mouth and nose, giving him a rather dignified appearance.
That is
Unparalleled Dragon and Serpent!
Dragon Lord Meng Shu, Snake Woman Chaotian Incense!
One is a Soul Douluo, and the other is a Soul Emperor, yet they possess a powerful Martial Soul Fusion Skill, making their combat strength comparable to that of a Title Douluo.
In terms of fame, they are in no way inferior to the once-dominant Golden Trio.
They are also Meng Yiran's grandparents.
"You've managed to dodge my casual strike, so you're not bad."
Snake Granny Chaotianxiang's gaze was cold, and her words were icy.
"But that doesn't mean you can touch my precious granddaughter!"
She glanced at her and noticed that her precious granddaughter's eyebrows suddenly lifted and her eyes sparkled with desire, clearly indicating that her virginity had been broken.
Clearly, this happened last night.
She hadn't seen her granddaughter for a single night, and she found out that her precious granddaughter had been seduced. How could she possibly tolerate this?
If it weren't for the fear of leaving Meng Yiran with psychological trauma, the first move would have been a sure-fire killing blow.
"However, this kid has good talent, outstanding looks, and his martial soul seems to be a very high-level beast martial soul. Perhaps..."
Long Gong Meng Shu stroked his beard and winked.
"Old man, I don't think this kid comes from an ordinary family."
Chao Tianxiang frowned. "Break a few of his legs and arms, throw him in the river, and that'll be enough to punish him a little."
"Hmph, in this city of Soto, what family can possibly suppress us, the peerless dragon and snake?"
Long Gong snorted coldly, his sinister gaze fixed on Ma Hongjun, and an invisible oppressive aura slowly emanated from him.
"I'll give you two choices: either I break all three of your legs and you crawl away, or you get engaged to Yiran and become a live-in son-in-law."
Which one do you choose?
The surrounding air suddenly became viscous and thick like water, and the red-haired boy instantly felt some difficulty breathing.
Looking at the two people in front of him who were practically threatening him, the boy's lips curled into a mocking smile.
"I used to think of the Peerless Dragon and Snake couple as heroes, but now it seems they're just indiscriminate old fools who can't distinguish right from wrong and whose minds aren't clear."
Violence!
Amidst a resounding phoenix cry, crimson flames soared into the sky, and countless fiery feathers scattered and danced, enveloping the boy. His red hair moved without wind, and the temperature in the air rose sharply!
Under the astonished gaze of the Dragon and Snake couple, they actually suppressed their aura and burned open a huge gash!
With the power of a Great Soul Master, how can one break through the Soul Douluo's aura seal?
The elderly couple's eyes lit up. Although it was just a casual move by the Dragon Lord, the fact that he could break through at this age showed that his will and talent were both top-notch.
Add to that the crimson flames and wings, and that terrifying temperature, could it be the Phoenix, the top-tier martial soul of birds?
With such conditions, even the Snake Granny Chaotianxiang couldn't help but be tempted.
"Boy, provoking us won't do you any good. Besides, since you know we are the peerless dragons and snakes, you naturally understand what that means, right?"
Long Gong said proudly, "Besides, my wife is still a beauty of unparalleled grace and gentle as water. Even in the entire Heaven Dou Empire, she is a rare and perfect match. Don't be so ungrateful for getting such a good deal."
Ma Hongjun responded with a cold laugh.
He had heard every word of how the two were going to deal with him, and even now, he spoke with an air of superiority, as if this were some extraordinary reward.
If it weren't for Meng Yiran's sake, he would have started cursing long ago.
"Grandpa and Grandma, please stop making a scene! I've already said it's a misunderstanding. Hongjun is innocent; he was just trying to save me!"
Meng Yiran kept pleading, her eyes blurry with tears as she looked at the cold-faced boy, feeling as if her heart was being torn apart.
I've really been harming him all along.
"Yiran, don't speak. I'm just asking you, is it true that this kid took your body?"
The old woman wiped away her granddaughter's tears with a touch of heartache and asked seriously.
"this"
Meng Yiran was speechless for a moment. "That was to save me, at that time."
"That's enough. Okay, don't say anything. If you really like him, what's wrong with him coming to your place and spending every day with you?"
Chao Tianxiang shook her head, then turned her gaze to the indifferent red-haired boy, narrowing her eyes.
"Kid, I advise you not to be ungrateful. I don't care who's behind you or who your backer is, they're no match for us."
If this were in Tiandou, she would never dare to say such a thing, but this is Soto City.
Soul Emperors are all about dimensional reduction attacks, and as for Soul Douluos, they belong to the legends.
Long Gong crossed his arms, nodded seriously, and puffed out his chest with considerable pride.
"In this city of Soto, no one can save you. You'd better behave and we won't mistreat you."
If the boy still disagrees, then he will have no choice but to use force.
Meng Shu's idea was simple: he didn't need any emotional foundation. Even if there was no emotional connection, he could just take him back, break his legs, and lock him up for a year or two.
"What a boastful tone, Lord Dragon."
Just as he was waiting for the boy to agree, a slightly flippant and angry voice came from behind him.
