My Ares Son-in-Law

Master Yuan knew very well how dangerous his situation was at the moment, and he clearly felt the terrifying power contained in the flames.

If it falls on him, he will inevitably be disfigured or even suffer worse consequences. His heart was filled with fear and regret, but at this moment, he was powerless and could only watch Xiao Chen approach step by step...

"Will you tell me or not?" Xiao Chen's voice was as cold as ice, and every word was like a heavy hammer hitting Master Yuan's heart. There was no warmth in his eyes, only persistence in the truth and disgust for deception.

Master Yuan was trembling, his eyes wandering between Xiao Chen's constantly jumping flames and Xiao Chen's stern face. He wanted to use silence as a final resistance, but Xiao Chen's unquestionable attitude and the pain brought by the flames made him collapse instantly.

"Ah——" A scream pierced the air, and Master Yuan could no longer bear the approach of the flames. His arm was lightly touched by the flames, and his skin and flesh were instantly torn apart. Sizzling smoke and a burning smell spread. The pain surged like a tide, and he almost fainted.

“I’ll tell you! I’ll tell you!” Master Yuan finally broke down, his voice filled with tears. “It’s just an ordinary sugar pill, made of flour and sugar. It’s not an elixir at all… But I swear, it won’t kill you. I really… I’m not lying.”

Xiao Chen's eyes flashed with mixed emotions when he heard this. He slowly retracted the flame, but his coldness and majesty did not diminish. Master Yuan collapsed on the ground, holding his burned arm tightly with both hands, pain and fear intertwined on his face.

At this moment, Li Na, who was standing aside, was shocked, and her eyes moved back and forth between Master Yuan and Xiao Chen. She had never thought that the "master" she had invited with so much effort was actually a complete liar.

The embarrassment and panic came over her like a tide, making it almost impossible for her to stand. She bit her lips tightly, trying hard not to let her tears fall, but the disappointment and anger in her eyes were difficult to conceal.

The air around them seemed to freeze, and everyone's heart was filled with complicated emotions. This sudden change not only exposed the true face of a liar, but also made everyone present fall into deep thought.

The expressions of the eight poisoned people at this moment were extremely complicated, with shock, shame, and regret intertwined. They seemed as if they were hit by a sledgehammer, and their faces were as pale as paper.

They had previously accused Xiao Chen of being a bastard who had done evil things, but now that the truth was out, they realized that they were the most blind and ignorant spectators, easily deceived by the liar. At this moment, they looked at each other, with mixed feelings in their hearts that were hard to describe.

Xiao Chen looked at them, his eyes without any sympathy or pity, only insistence on the truth and contempt for deception. He said coldly: "Just admit it." These short words were as piercing as ice, making Master Yuan and the poisoned people feel an unprecedented chill.

Afterwards, Xiao Chen did not say anything more, but took out his cell phone and called Zhang Tingsheng. On the other end of the phone, Zhang Tingsheng's voice was a bit urgent and concerned: "Mr. Xiao, I just came back from Tianhai and was about to go to Su's Pharmaceutical. What's the emergency?" Xiao Chen explained the situation concisely: "Ask your men to come up immediately. There is a liar who calls himself Master Yuan here, and he actually cheated me." His words revealed unquestionable majesty and determination. Obviously, he could no longer tolerate this kind of fraud.

After saying that, Xiao Chen hung up the phone without hesitation, as if one more second of conversation was a waste of time. He turned around and glanced at the poisoned people again, his eyes full of warnings and admonitions, as if to say: "This is the fate of trusting scammers."

At this time, Zhang Tingsheng, after receiving the call, immediately realized the seriousness of the situation. He quickly deployed and ordered his men to rush to Su Pharmaceutical as quickly as possible. In his heart, Xiao Chen was not only his friend, but also a strong man he admired. Anyone who dared to challenge Xiao Chen's dignity would be severely punished.

Master Yuan's face was extremely ugly, as if covered by a thick haze. He tried to use his last struggle to gain a glimmer of hope. He swallowed his saliva, and his voice was trembling and pleading:
"Brother, I... I haven't done anything that is harmful to the world. Can you please spare me? To be honest, I do have some connections with Dragon Guards and some connections with some big shots in the capital. If we can make peace today, we can smile when we meet in the future. Why should we plant hidden dangers for our future for such a small matter? If your company really has a grudge against me, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles in the future."

Master Yuan's words were full of threats and inducements, trying to use his background to intimidate Xiao Chen, while also revealing his deep concern about the consequences. However, to Xiao Chen, his words were nothing more than a struggle before death.

"Shut up!" At this moment, a deafening roar rang out like thunder, instantly breaking the silence at the scene. Zhang Tingsheng's face was gloomy, and he walked over with heavy steps. His eyes revealed unquestionable majesty and determination.

He first cast a respectful and firm look at Xiao Chen, then slowly bowed, with a hint of apology and determination in his tone:
"Mr. Xiao, although this man has a thousand connections with our Dragon Guards and even has some connection with a big boss in the capital, this cannot be a reason for him to escape punishment. He dared to offend you today, which violated the bottom line of the Dragon Guards and was a blasphemy against justice. Please rest assured that I, Zhang Tingsheng, will enforce the law impartially and bring him to justice, and will never tolerate it!"

Every word Zhang Tingsheng said was powerful. His resolute attitude and strong tone made everyone present feel his majesty and responsibility as the leader of the Dragon Guards.

Master Yuan completely lost his last hope in this sudden change. His face became even paler and his eyes were filled with despair and unwillingness.

There was an unquestionable determination in Xiao Chen's words, and his eyes were deep and sharp, as if he could see into people's hearts.

"I leave it to you, Commander Zhang." He patted Zhang Tingsheng's shoulder gently, his tone showing both trust and expectation. "If anyone dares to stand up and plead for this liar, don't hesitate, just tell me directly. I want to see who dares to openly protect such a shameless person and challenge the bottom line of justice in this bright and clear world."

Xiao Chen's eyes flashed with an inviolable light. He knew that his mission was far more than this, and there were many more important things waiting for him to complete, so he didn't want to dwell on this matter too much. (End of this chapter)
