As soon as these words were spoken,
Su Muwan's expression changed.
She screamed internally.
What?!
The birthday banquet for the Lin family patriarch?!
Wasn't that when the Dragon King revealed his identity in her past life?!
How has it come a year early??
Could it be due to the butterfly effect caused by her reincarnation??
Just as Su Muwan was about to ask Qin Luo to decline on her behalf,
Suddenly!
A flash of inspiration struck.
Her villainous intelligence regained the high ground.
Su Muwan's expression darkened.
No!
She was already in a fight to the death with the Dragon King. Cowering now would certainly put her at a disadvantage!
Once his identity was restored, he would surely come after her.
Besides, the course of events in this life had become very strange.
Rather than let this Dragon King continue to run amok,
Why not...
Strike while the iron is hot!
In her past life, Su Muwan had been a ruthless villain.
Acting arrogant and domineering.
But for some reason, as she went along, she ended up offending more than a dozen chosen ones who couldn't be killed no matter how she tried.
Even more puzzling, despite her great strength, she still couldn't defeat that group of chosen ones.
All Su Muwan knew was that before she died, they shouted something about bonds and friendship and unleashed unprecedented power.
That kind of power filled with conviction had thoroughly frightened her.
That's why she returned to this life not wanting to cause trouble.
But not causing trouble didn't mean she was afraid of it.
Since she was already in a fight to the death with the Dragon King, then... given the circumstances.
Su Muwan's demeanor gradually became haughty and cold. She raised her eyes to look at Qin Luo and said flatly, "I understand."
Dragon King, it seems that in this life, you'll have to go offline ahead of schedule.
At this moment.
Outside Su Muwan's villa.
The Dragon King, Xiao Tian, wore a solitary and proud expression.
His face was as calm as still water, as if everything was under his control.
Shen Fei and the others watching him nearby were puzzled.
They exchanged glances.
What was up with this son-in-law? Hadn't he learned his lesson from before?
Why did he still look so arrogant?
Should they slap him a couple times for Brother Luo to see how he reacts?
The reason Xiao Tian was so calm was not because of anything else.
It was because...
He... no longer planned to conceal his identity!!!
When the time came and his powers were restored, everyone would kneel and submit to him!
And this was also with the approval of his master, the Old Dragon King.
On the day of the Lin family patriarch's birthday banquet, it would be time for him to reveal his identity as the Dragon King!
By now, all the forces around the world backing the Dragon King Palace should have received the news.
Everything was ready, just waiting for the right moment.
He, Xiao Tian, was just waiting for the Lin patriarch's birthday banquet three days later... to display his might!!
In fact, the reason he had come to the Lin family as a son-in-law and endured for so many years was for the Dragon King's exclusive cultivation technique, the "Divine Dragon Art"!!!
To fully cultivate the Divine Dragon Art, the practitioner must fully experience the seven emotions and six desires of the mortal world.
Love, anger, sorrow, shame, and so on, all needed to be fully experienced!
As it happened, when Xiao Tian was young, he had followed the Old Dragon King and caught a glimpse of Lin Wanrong from afar.
From that moment, he fell in love with her.
So he had the Old Dragon King arrange a marriage with the Lin family patriarch.
Until now... he had concealed his identity to marry into the Lin family!!
According to the Old Dragon King, he had to endure for six full years to master the technique.
But this was only the fifth year.
However, Xiao Tian was no longer willing to wait. He would rather start over than continue to endure.
Because he had a feeling that if he kept enduring, Wanrong might... leave him forever.
This was what he feared most. He could give up everything, but Lin Wanrong... he couldn't give her up!
That's why he had begged his master to restore his identity!
When that time came, his wife Lin Wanrong would fall in love with him again!
As for the Su family and that lackey.
Hmph, there was no need for them to exist anymore.
Oh, but that lackey had saved his wife's grandfather, so considering that...
He would allow him to cripple his own cultivation and live out his life as a useless person.
And Su Muwan, who had humiliated him repeatedly.
Hmph, he would certainly kill her on the spot later!!
Just as he was thinking this,
A calm voice came from inside the villa.
"Where is that son-in-law of yours?"
"Uh... Miss Su, that useless person from our Lin family is at the door."
Hearing this,
Xiao Tian sneered, instantly understanding.
So that's how it is.
Why did Miss Su ask this?
You might think it was to mock him again?
Wrong, wrong, completely wrong!
Actually, it was because the Su family's influence was much greater than the Lin family's, so they had already confirmed his identity as the Dragon King.
Therefore!
This change in attitude was to curry favor with him!
But unfortunately...
It was too late!
This Dragon King... will destroy the Su family!
Thinking this, Xiao Tian sneered, then strode inside.
In the living room on the first floor.
Su Muwan sat calmly on the guest sofa.
Just after Lin Wanrong answered her first question.
Click~
The door was pushed open.
Xiao Tian stood in the doorway with his hands behind his back.
Dazzling sunlight shone in.
Lin Wanrong, who had been chatting happily with Su Muwan, suddenly changed expression.
She immediately stood up and walked towards Xiao Tian with a twisted expression, scolding as she went, "Useless trash!! Did Miss Su tell you to come in?"
Slap!!
With that, she raised her hand and slapped Xiao Tian across the face.
She yelled, "Get out and kneel on the ground to apologize right now!!!"
Xiao Tian held his stinging cheek, but his expression remained extremely proud: "Wanrong... it's not like that, I wanted to..."
Slap!
"Don't call me Wanrong!! You! Are! Not! Worthy!"
Lin Wanrong screamed and slapped him again.
Xiao Tian's face was turned to the side, but his expression remained very proud.
Qin Luo also looked surprised at Xiao Tian, who had suddenly walked in talking to himself, been slapped twice, and still maintained a haughty attitude.
What was going on with this Dragon King?
Why did he just barge in so aggressively?
As for Su Muwan.
Seeing Xiao Tian walk in with inflated confidence, she couldn't help but think to herself.
This Xiao Tian really is planning to reveal his identity.
Well then... this threat can't be allowed to remain!
On Xiao Tian's side, he first glanced at the silent Su Muwan, then smiled at his visibly upset wife.
He lowered the hand covering his face and smiled confidently: "Get out?"
"Hahahahaha!"
Xiao Tian stood with his hands behind his back, slightly raising his chin. His gaze swept over Su Muwan as if looking down on all creation, and he slowly said, "Look at this Miss Su... does she dare to let this Dragon King..."
Before he could finish,
Before the word "leave" could come out,
There was a sudden!
Slap!!
"Ugh—!!"
Qin Luo instantly flashed in front of Xiao Tian, raising his hand to interrupt him with a slap.
He yelled angrily, "Useless trash! Just a son-in-law!! How dare you stand when my young miss hasn't told you to?!"
"Get down on the ground!!"
"And 'this Dragon King'?! Who do you think you are!"
