My Ares Son-in-Law

When Hailong heard Xiao Chen's words, his face turned even paler. He shouted with all his might: "Help! Someone save me!" His voice echoed in the night sky, carrying a hint of despair and helplessness.

However, the people around him did not dare to take action at all. They looked at Xiao Chen's cold and ruthless eyes, felt the powerful aura emanating from him, and were filled with fear and awe.

Xiao Chen was too cruel and too powerful. No one here could be his opponent. They could only stand aside silently, watching Hai Long struggling in despair, but they were powerless.

Hailong's shouts gradually became weaker, and the light in his eyes lost its luster, as if at this moment, he had completely given up struggling.

He knew he had no way to escape and could only accept his fate. And Xiao Chen, like a cold judge, stood quietly in front of him, ready to give him the final punishment.

"I've already told you that I won't kill you. Why are you so excited? I will only cripple you and make you unable to even live as an ordinary person." Xiao Chen looked at Hailong with a smile, but there was an unquestionable determination hidden in that smile.

His movements were swift and precise, and in just a few moves, Hai Long's limbs were crippled. Hai Long's eyes flashed with despair, and he tried to struggle, but found that he was powerless.

From now on, Hailong's world will be completely changed. Not only can he not practice martial arts, he has lost the power he once was proud of, and he can't even be an ordinary person.

His limbs hung limply, unable to support his body any longer. He could only lie helplessly on the ground, wailing in pain, his voice filled with despair and unwillingness.

Dozens of warriors around were watching this scene in horror, their eyes full of shock and fear. Hailong was the second most powerful warrior among them after Yingqi, but he was crippled by Xiao Chen.

Their heartbeats quickened and beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads, for they were afraid that they would become Xiao Chen's next target.

They began to recall the days when they had done evil together with Hailong, and their hearts were filled with regret and uneasiness.

Hai Long's fate seemed to be a warning to them not to follow in his footsteps. They began to realize that Xiao Chen was not someone who could be easily provoked, and his strength and methods were far beyond their imagination.

There was a depressing atmosphere in the air, and everyone was carefully observing Xiao Chen's movements, fearing that they would accidentally anger this cold and powerful man. And Hailong became a permanent shadow in their hearts, reminding them not to repeat the same mistakes.

This kind of thing, just thinking about it makes people feel cold. An indescribable fear rises quietly from the bottom of the heart and quickly spreads throughout the body.

Imagining the bloody and violent scene, my calves began to feel numb involuntarily, as if they were being pricked by millions of tiny needles, making me feel uncomfortable all over. Even my breathing became rapid, and I suddenly felt an unprecedented discomfort.

This chill seemed to have a physical body, spreading through the crowd, causing the originally somewhat contemptuous and mocking looks to be instantly replaced by endless fear. They looked at each other, their eyes full of fear and uneasiness, as if they saw the god of death approaching step by step.

Today, how many people will die in this seemingly peaceful place? This thought hovers in everyone's mind, like a dark cloud pressing down on one's head, suffocating one.

"Haha, I never thought that someone in Tianhai would dare to challenge the majesty of the Shadow King. This is beyond my expectation." At this tense moment, an arrogant and lazy voice suddenly came from the cave, like ice piercing the bones, making people's hearts tighten. Then, an old man with silver hair and gorgeous robes slowly walked out of the cave. His steps seemed leisurely, but revealed a majesty that should not be underestimated.

The old man slowly raised his eyelids, his deep eyes seemed to be able to see into people's hearts. Just one glance made everyone present feel an invisible pressure, as if even the air had solidified.

"Prison Clan!" Xiao Chen's voice was low and firm, and his eyes instantly became as sharp as a knife, as if they could penetrate all disguises. For ordinary people, the difference between the Prison Clan and the human race might be difficult to detect, but for Xiao Chen, it was obvious.

He had fought with the Prison Clan countless times, and was already familiar with the Prison Clan's unique and disturbing aura, almost forming a conditioned reflex. Once he sensed this aura, a strong sense of vigilance and hostility would immediately surge in his heart.

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, the old man paused slightly and a look of surprise flashed across his face.

Obviously, he did not expect that someone in this remote place would be able to recognize his true identity at a glance. His eyes stayed on Xiao Chen for a moment, with complex emotions flashing in his eyes. There was surprise, anger, and deep worry.

The next moment, the old man's eyes became cold and ruthless, and murderous intent spread in his eyes. He knew very well that since he had been recognized, there was only one way to go - to kill and silence him.

He must not allow his secrets to be exposed, let alone let anyone know his true identity and origins. Otherwise, he will face endless pursuit and encirclement, and may even lose his life.

The old man slowly raised his hands, his fingertips trembling slightly, as if ready to launch a fatal attack at any time. A cold aura began to permeate his body, forming a sharp contrast with the surrounding air.

Xiao Chen could feel a powerful pressure approaching him, as if an invisible giant hand was slowly tightening, ready to crush him into powder.

"Young man, I don't know what you are talking about." The old man from the Prison Clan spoke with a hint of joking, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, as if he was joking with an ignorant child.

He smiled and slowly approached Xiao Chen. Every step he took seemed so calm, as if everything was under his control.

However, beneath this seemingly peaceful appearance, there was an endless murderous intent. When the old man was less than three meters away from Xiao Chen, the smile on his face suddenly became ferocious, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a frightening smile.

It was a smile full of cruelty and cunning, as if it had already seen Xiao Chen's tragic ending.

The next moment, the old man's body suddenly turned into a phantom, and he arrived in front of Xiao Chen at an astonishing speed, almost in the blink of an eye. His movements were smooth and swift, like a cheetah ready to go, bursting out with all his strength in an instant.

The two were only about a foot apart at this time, so close that they could almost hear each other's breathing. (End of this chapter)
