The Strongest Mad Son-in-law

Chapter 1680 1683: Yielding to Gentleness, Not Force

If Si Wen directly claimed that this famous sword belonged to her Xuanmen, I would definitely not agree.

But now she's using a strategy of retreat to advance, saying she wants to give the sword to me, yet I'm someone who responds better to kindness than force. You treat me well, and I'll reciprocate even better.

So I'll surely return the favor to them.

Xu Hao understood her intention, but it wasn't really a scheme, more like an open plan where everyone wins!

"I agree with the Sect Leader, but just as Miss Zhou said, even if I have it, I can't wield it, so for now, let Miss Zhou use it," Xu Hao said without hesitation.

Compared to others in Xuanmen, although Zhou Shuran is quite annoying, she's more familiar to me, so Xu Hao still chose to let her use this famous sword whose name he didn't even know.

Zhou Shuran was stunned for a moment and quickly said, "Hey, big bad guy Xu, are you trying to take advantage of me? Otherwise, why are you being so generous?"

Xu Hao laughed, "If you want to let me take advantage of you, I wouldn't mind. After all, taking advantage of a beauty is something I'd also like. If you agree, then come to my room tonight, and we'll have a good talk."

"Get lost!" Zhou Shuran was instantly furious, spat at Xu Hao.

Xu Hao chuckled and said, "Let's not talk about distant matters now. Let's solve the immediate problem first. This Dragon Locking Hook isn't easy to handle. Does anyone have a plan?"

The Moon Goddess Successor stepped forward and said, "Let me do it. But after I break this Dragon Locking Hook Formation, these three Dragon Locking Hooks must be mine."

Everyone agreed.

After all, even Xu Hao, without using his trump cards, could not break the Dragon Locking Hook completely.

Zhou Shuran, somewhat skeptical, said, "Can she really do it? The front is very dangerous."

The Moon Goddess Successor suddenly turned her head, gave a sweet smile, and said, "Little girl, don't worry, I'm very capable. If I manage to retrieve the three Dragon Locking Hooks intact, how about you come to my room tonight?"

Zhou Shuran shivered all over, covered in black lines, and said, "You... you're even scarier than that pervert big bad guy Xu!"

Her body retreated repeatedly, looking at the Moon Goddess Successor with fear.

The Moon Goddess Successor smiled, no longer teasing this little girl Zhou Shuran.

Everyone watched as the Moon Goddess Successor slowly walked forward, her hands constantly forming seals, and gradually an imprint about one foot square appeared in the air. Then, under her control, it was directly sent toward the dark area in front.

"Clang!"

Everyone heard the sound of metal clashing, then saw three golden Dragon Locking Hooks emerge from the darkness and fall into the hands of the Moon Goddess Successor.

Everyone was shocked.

This... was it really that simple?!

Could it be that this thing only looked impressive but was actually fragile?

The Moon Goddess Successor seemed to sense what many people were thinking, lifted one Dragon Locking Hook, and smiled, "Would anyone like to try its power?"

Everyone shook their heads; the power of this thing was terribly strong, only a Late Stage Grandmaster level's master could handle it.

Xu Hao, deep in thought, glanced at her and sent a voice transmission, "Are you from the Tang Sect?"

"Of course not, if I were from the Tang Sect, how could I be the Moon Goddess Successor? The Tang Sect develops in Tiannan, and the Moon Goddess left the Huaya Continent for Australia ages ago, they're worlds apart. You tell me I'm a Tang Sect disciple?

Moreover, no current Tang Sect disciple could unlock the Seal in the Dragon Locking Hook. Without unlocking the Seal, there's no way to control this thing at will." She repeatedly denied it, but Xu Hao didn't notice the hint of a sly smile in her eyes.

Hearing her words, Xu Hao felt it made some sense and didn't pursue the question further.

Having unlocked the Dragon Locking Hook's formation, the group proceeded inward, and although there were various traps, they couldn't stop Xu Hao and his team.

Eventually, they reached the deepest part of the tomb and opened the Stone Door.

Inside the tomb, it was extremely simple, just a table, a bed, and a horsetail whisk.

Zhou Shuran curiously asked, "Did Lord Yunsa really live here? How did he manage? With so many traps outside, it must have been very troublesome to come and go."

"You're really silly!"

Xu Hao playfully flicked her forehead and said, "Wouldn't Lord Yunsa shut off the traps when coming and going? There must be a main switch here."

"I... I didn't know... why do you have to be so rough... you're so annoying..." Zhou Shuran rubbed her head resentfully.

Chuckling helplessly, Xu Hao and the others began searching for the famous sword inside the tomb.

Outside the tomb, things started getting restless again.
