My Ares Son-in-Law

As for those who did not retreat because of Xiao Chen's warning, their eyes were flashing with greed and determination. Obviously, the temptation of profit had made them lose their reason and decided to take a risk.

They were either standing or standing, and their shapes were different, but the desire for unknown challenges and the persistence for victory were clearly revealed on the faces of each of them.

The whole scene froze at this moment, the air seemed to become heavy, and a silent contest quietly unfolded in everyone's heart.

Ares' face was twisted with anger and unwillingness, a cruel arc appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes seemed to be able to spit out fire, shooting directly at the warriors who chose to withdraw.

His voice was low and hoarse, carrying an unquestionable threat: "You few losers, do you really think you can escape? Once you deal with this guy, your fate will not be much better."

His tone was filled with deep hatred for the betrayer, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, bringing a bone-chilling chill.

His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. They suddenly turned and fell on the remaining crowd, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.

"The rest of you, stop hesitating! No matter how strong this guy is, can he handle so many of us at the same time? Come on together and use our strength to prove that no one can stop the Tianhai Chamber of Commerce!"

His voice resounded throughout the venue, carrying an irresistible force, arousing the fighting spirit and enthusiasm in the hearts of the warriors present.

Following Ares's command, it was as if some invisible restraints were released. Except for the three Tongtian realm warriors who were obviously extremely powerful, the rest of them rushed towards Xiao Chen with roars like enraged beasts.

Their eyes showed both the desire for victory and the fear of the unknown, but more importantly, a kind of blindness and impulsiveness driven by collective emotion.

Xiao Chen stood there, not moving an inch, but a complex compassion flashed across his eyes. It was a profound insight into the greed and ignorance in human nature, as well as helplessness and sigh for what was about to happen.

"I had no intention of hurting anyone, but the world forced me to this point." He sighed in his heart, revealing a hint of sadness in his tone, "I didn't kill anyone, but people insisted on seeking death. Who can escape the cycle of cause and effect in this world?"

In this moment of silence, Xiao Chen seemed to be isolated from the surrounding noise. His figure appeared particularly lonely and determined amid the crazy charge of the crowd.

The next moment, Xiao Chen's movements were swift beyond imagination. He tapped the ground with his feet, as if there was some subtle resonance between him and the earth. His whole body instantly turned into a stream of light, like the brightest lightning in the night sky, cutting through the sky and leaving behind a series of dazzling afterimages.

The air seemed to be filled with the slight hum of wind as he moved, a testimony to his extreme speed.

Whoosh!
Whoosh!
The trajectory of Xiao Chen's body quickly shuttling through space intertwined together to form a melody that belonged only to speed and power.

In this brief moment, Xiao Chen's figure seemed to blend into the surrounding air and became illusory. Even those well-trained warriors with vigilant eyes could only capture an indescribable blur and were unable to lock onto his specific location.

The warriors around had their eyes filled with astonishment and disbelief. The scenery before their eyes flashed, and Xiao Chen disappeared without a trace.

It was so fast that it was as if time had fast-forwarded on him, making everything unreal. They all widened their eyes, trying to catch a clue from their blurred vision, but they could only feel a deep sense of powerlessness and frustration. Then, a sudden pain attacked their bodies without any warning. It was a fear and despair rising from the depths of their souls, as if some indescribable force was tearing through their defenses and hitting their vital points.

Their faces turned pale as paper in an instant, beads of sweat oozed from their foreheads, and their eyes were filled with fear and confusion about the unknown.

Then, everything returned to darkness. Their consciousness began to blur, and the world before their eyes gradually became dim and finally fell into a dead silence of darkness.

Their bodies lost support, like shells without their souls, and fell limply to the ground, their lives or deaths uncertain. However, Xiao Chen was always ruthless in his attacks, so the chances of their survival were slim.

At this time, Xiao Chen had quietly returned to his original position, as if the thrilling contest just now had never happened.

His face was as calm as water, and there was a faint light flashing in his eyes, which showed his absolute confidence in the control of power and his deep understanding of the coexistence of fragility and tenacity of life.

The air around him seemed to become heavy and solemn because of his presence, and those warriors who fell to the ground, except for the three Tongtian Realm masters with unfathomable strength and Tie Meihua, all fell into deep silence, and their life or death was unknown.

Xiao Chen's gaze was like an icy blade, sweeping across Tie Meihua's face without any warmth. There was a complex emotion in his eyes - both disdain for the weak and indifference to the truth that was about to be revealed.

"Do you know why I don't kill you?" His voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to hit Tie Meihua's heart like a hammer.

Tie Meihua felt an unprecedented chill, and her body trembled involuntarily, a fear rising from the depths of her soul. Only then did she suddenly realize how naive and ridiculous her previous judgment was.

She once thought that the second of the Three Monsters of Taoyuan, who were notorious and rampant, could protect her and even make her feel proud in front of Xiao Chen.

However, the reality was cruel. The two monsters were killed by Xiao Chen as easily as ants. This sudden change caught her off guard. The fire of hope in her heart was extinguished in an instant, and was replaced by endless despair and fear.

She hurriedly looked for shelter and finally hid behind Ares, which seemed to be her only safe haven at the moment. Ares' tall figure partially blocked Xiao Chen's sight, but the chill that surged from the bottom of her heart could not be completely isolated.

Tie Meihua cried in a terrified voice, "Xiao, don't be complacent. There are three masters of the Tongtian Realm here. Each of them has the ability to move mountains and overturn seas. Do you really think you can win all this?"

Although her voice was loud, it could not hide the trembling and helplessness in it. It was as if she was making a last-ditch struggle, trying to regain a bit of dignity with verbal intimidation.

"Haha, you ignorant bitch, I have spared your life many times, but you still don't know what is good for you. Since you are so stubborn, today, I will personally send you to where you should go."

Xiao Chen's voice was as cold as the winter wind, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, with an unquestionable determination. (End of this chapter)
