My Son-in-law Is A War God
Chapter 379 Jun Moxie_1

Chapter 379: Chapter 379 Jun Moxie_1

Zhili Prefecture, Wang Family.

The atmosphere was somewhat oppressive.

This time, their joint effort with the Xu and Huang Families to eradicate the Ding Family was supposed to be easy.

But no one had expected it to come to this point today.

They had poured in heaps of gold and silver, only to hear not a sound in return; instead, they had lost Wang Chen and others in the process.

It was entirely a transaction that cost them both their wife and their soldiers.

"Bang!"

A loud noise startled everyone present.

It was the Patriarch of the Wang Family.

He looked indifferently at Xu Shaocong, who was kneeling there.

This man was the only survivor of this fiasco.

After escaping from the Ding Family, Xu Shaocong did not return but directly left Tianhai City, thus becoming the one who slipped through the net.

Whether this fish had slipped through or had been intentionally let go was a matter of question.

"What happened? I entrusted you with capable men, and they are all dead, yet you are the one who’s still alive!"

Patriarch Wang roared.

Xu Shaocong, frightened, hurriedly knelt down and wept, "Patriarch Wang, we all miscalculated.

I barely escaped from their clutches too."

"Escaped?"

Patriarch Wang coldly looked at Xu Shaocong’s severed hand and said, "Tell me exactly what happened. If there is the slightest falsehood,

I will have you join your father down below!"

Xu Shaocong swallowed hard.

He knew that Patriarch Wang truly dared to kill him.

Now that he was of no further use,

he had to find a way to make himself valuable.

"Patriarch Wang, it was all Xiao Chen from Jiangnan Prefecture!"

With gritted teeth, he had no choice but to tell the truth.

The Wang Family’s intelligence network was highly developed, and if he lied, they would easily find out.

In that case, he would be truly doomed.

"Xiao Chen?"

Patriarch Wang was taken aback, as if he could not recall who this person was.

"Patriarch, this Xiao Chen is the same person who once caused us to lose control in Jiangbei."

Someone beside explained.

"It’s that man again!"

A glint of cold light appeared in Patriarch Wang’s eyes.

The Jiangbei incident had significantly reduced the Wang Family’s sources of income,

and he still harbored resentment to this day.

"Xiao Chen isn’t the one to be afraid of, but rather his Ghost Blade."

The person beside Patriarch Wang continued, "Ghost Blade killed Long Chen on the Bajiang Bridge.

Many people witnessed it."

"Long Chen isn’t worth much; the Long Family has declined and regards such a person as their top expert."

Patriarch Wang said disdainfully, "An individual who can’t even use Vigor is not a true expert.

The most fearsome aspect of the Long Family is actually the old men lurking behind the scenes.

Ghost Blade might be strong enough to kill Long Chen, but at best, he is only on par with Wang Chen.

How could he have killed all ten top experts?"

The Wang Family was not afraid of Xiao Chen.

The reason they hadn’t tried to seize Jiangbei Prefecture was that they had been caught up in a power struggle with the Long and Ding Families.

They couldn’t afford to pay attention to that matter.

"Aside from Ghost Blade, who else could it be? Surely not Ding Mulan?"

Someone asked.

"It could really be Ding Mulan; she has already mastered the basic usage of Vigor.

Among martial artists, she is at the Entry Level.

Killing Wang Chen wouldn’t be surprising," another person added.

"It’s neither Ding Mulan nor Ghost Blade!"

Xu Shaocong shook his head, "The most terrifying is Xiao Chen!

He’s the one who killed Wang Chen and the others; he’s the most horrifying of all.

That guy is the Devil!"

"How laughable, an upstart son-in-law; how skillful could he be?"

The man beside the Patriarch Wang disdainfully said.

This person was Patriarch Wang’s eldest son, Wang Tian.

Much trusted and relied upon by Patriarch Wang.

Just a bit too proud.

"I actually think that looking down on him just because he married into the family is the real foolishness!"

Suddenly, someone standing in the corner spoke up.

"Nonsense, this is our Wang Family’s meeting; do you, an outsider, have any right to chime in?"

With a cold look, Wang Tian turned to that man and said, "This matter is most likely the Ding Family sending experts to assist covertly.

Otherwise, our Wang Family would not have failed!"

"Brother, Mo Xie is not an outsider!"

Jun Moxie, the son-in-law who married into the Wang Family, took Wang Ling’er, the youngest daughter of the Wang family, as his wife.

That’s why Wang Tian called him an outsider.

"Hmph, if he’s not an outsider, then what am I?"

Wang Tian snorted coldly, "As a son-in-law who married into the family, you should be aware of your place.

Do you even deserve to speak in this kind of situation?"

Wang Ling’er spoke back defiantly, "Since Mo Xie has come to the Wang Family, he naturally is one of the Wang Family.

Big brother, don’t forget, he has done a lot for our family and resolved many troubles.

Can’t he even say a word?

Moreover, I think what he said makes sense.

That Xiao Chen is definitely not someone we should overlook; otherwise, we might be the next ones to suffer!"

"Alright, Ling’er, your elder brother is right.

This incident mostly involved the Ding Family sending experts over."

Patriarch Wang spoke indifferently, "Mo Xie, you shouldn’t take it too much to heart, your brother speaks about the matter, not the person.

In meetings like this, it’s better you listen rather than speak rashly.

If Xiao Chen were so great himself, why would he need Ghost Blade to deal with Long Chen?

He could have just killed Long Chen himself.

So, there’s no need for further discussion about this.

Let’s just wait quietly, the situation in Tianhai City isn’t just our Wang Family’s concern; those real aristocratic clans might even be more anxious than us.

They will help us find out who exactly aided the Ding Family!"

Jun Moxie sneered disdainfully.

But he quickly controlled himself.

Then, bowing his hands, he said, "Mo Xie understands!"

He didn’t feel like explaining anything because he knew that Patriarch Wang believed him.

It was just to save his eldest son’s face

That he had spoken as he did.

Mo Xie didn’t care, after all, he was just a despised son-in-law who had married into the family.

As long as Wang Ling’er still treated him well, that’s enough.

He had no reason to make an enemy out of Wang Tian for such trivial matters, there was no benefit in it for him.

"That’s enough, let’s end the meeting!"

Patriarch Wang waved his hand, yet his brows were still tightly furrowed.

Six top experts had died in Tianhai City, and they didn’t even know who the killer was.

How could this not worry him?

Although he found Jun Moxie’s words somewhat convincing, could he really believe that Xiao Chen was that strong?

"Mo Xie, I’m sorry, my brother’s bad temper... if he knew that the things I’ve accomplished were with your help in the background,

he wouldn’t have treated you like this.

But why must you keep it a secret?"

Back at home, Wang Ling’er asked Jun Moxie.

"It’s naturally for revenge!"

Jun Moxie said coldly, "The Jun Family, one of the ten great aristocratic clans of Dragon Country.

Although I am from the Jun Family, I wish to destroy the Jun Family.

All this still depends on the Wang Family."

"I’m sorry for bringing up your painful memories," Wang Ling’er apologized.

"It’s fine, I’ve grown accustomed to it,"

Jun Moxie shook his head. His own twin brother, in order to vie for the position of the sole heir, had framed him.

And his father had actually believed it,

And married him off into the Wang Family.

To serve as the bond between the Jun and Wang families.
