The Dominance of the Son-in-Law: My Wealthy and Beautiful Wife

Just.

Qin Feng's attitude made Old Lady Liang feel very helpless.

No one has ever treated her with such arrogance.

"This way, as long as you are willing to respectfully call me 'Granny', then..."

Old Lady Liang said.

She also wanted to save face for herself, as long as the other party showed respect, it would mean they had bowed to her, which she could accept.

Unexpectedly.

She hadn't finished speaking when a bird flew by not far away.

And Qin Feng, paying no attention to her words, saw the bird and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, then immediately gave chase!

The Golden Bird!

He, Xiao Wu, and Yu Xing'er had encountered this bird on the way to the Red Fire Palace!

According to Yu Xing'er, this was the Spirit Bird of the peerless beauty who disappeared more than a decade ago in Qinling, which was Xiao Wu's mother's bird.

When Xiao Wu encountered this bird, she immediately vanished in pursuit of it.

Now, many days had passed.

Qin Feng saw the bird again, but Xiao Wu was nowhere to be seen, worrying him that something might have happened to her.

So he didn't care to listen to what Old Lady Liang had to say and pursued immediately!

This Golden Bird, stronger and faster than ordinary Spirit Birds, was difficult to follow with common movement techniques. Even Qin Feng, who had absorbed Crane Fairy Bai Yu's power, found it exceptionally hard to catch up.

He wanted to chase it using the Human Emperor Step.

But the Golden Bird flew very high, vanishing in a blink into the woods.

"I must catch up!"

Qin Feng said with a furrowed brow.

Just as he was about to use the power of the Six Jia Opening Veins to resume the chase, Old Lady Liang blocked him and Qingcheng.

Old Lady Liang didn't know Qin Feng's worries about Xiao Wu and said, "You would give up something more valuable in pursuit of a mere Spirit Bird. Don't you think it's like throwing away a watermelon to pick up a sesame seed?"

"Out of the way!"

Qin Feng didn't have time to explain and planned to pursue again.

But Old Lady Liang's movement technique was not to be underestimated. Having previously caught up to the Human Emperor Step, she demonstrated her strength by continuing to block the way, frustrated, she said: "How about this, you first come with me to see Ling Xiao Fairy's portrait, and then I'll tell you where the Golden Bird is, okay?"

"Really? You know where it is?" Qin Feng finally looked at her seriously.

"Of course." Old Lady Liang said.

"Fine, then let's not dawdle, hurry up!" Qin Feng spoke.

"..."

Old Lady Liang felt stifled inside.

Seeing Purple Cloud Immortal's portrait was a tremendous opportunity for him, one that many people desperately sought and she would not let just anyone see, now she had to set terms to plead with Qin Feng to go.

It was incredibly humiliating.

There was no choice.

With nobody left in Qinling...

Resignedly,

Old Lady Liang led Qin Feng back to the courtyard of the Purple Cloud Pavilion.

"Inside is the Purple Cloud Immortal, follow me, and be sure to have a heart of reverence!" Old Lady Liang instructed.

In the center of the room stood a white Jade statue!

It was nine meters tall, crafted entirely of Nephrite Jade, exuding a gentle luster. The statue was exquisitely lifelike, as if it were a real person.

"Beautiful..."

Qin Feng exclaimed in surprise.

But from the Jade statue alone, one could feel her beauty, like a fairy!

Or rather, it was a fairy!

"Aren't you going to kneel and pay homage?"

At this moment, Old Lady Liang, already kneeling on the cushion in front, called out to Qin Feng.

Qin Feng merely bowed slightly, showing his respect for the statue.

For an unknown statue, he would not kneel indiscriminately.

Granny Liang had no choice, unable to scold him on this occasion, she could only proceed like this, then kneeling before the statue again she said, "Lady Immortal, now that the first heir has been found, we are not far from fulfilling your will."

As she finished speaking.

Qin Feng was astonished to discover that the eyes of the stone statue flickered with a burst of light, as if it heard Granny Liang's words.

Then.

Granny Liang turned to look at Qin Feng and said, "I think it's necessary to clarify the situation before you inherit the power of Lady Immortal."

"Speak!"

Qin Feng urged impatiently.

He now only looked forward to finding the Golden Bird to see how Xiao Wu was doing.

"It's like this..."

Granny Liang began her tale.

The Purple Cloud Immortal, which the stone statue depicted, was originally a being from the Upper Realm.

Three years ago, she was gravely wounded in conflict, her life hanging by a thread!

Before her death, she turned all of her power into the Five Elements, sealed them within her body, and shattered space and time to come here.

She intended to find someone to inherit her power to help fulfill her dying wish.

She ultimately chose to pick individuals from the Five Great Holy Lands of Huaxia,

Namely Kunlun, Shu Mountain, Tianshan, Changbai Mountain, and Qinling.

This has also been one of the reasons for the great wars among the Holy Lands in these three years.

As long as one becomes the foremost within a Holy Land, they may inherit one of the powers of the Purple Cloud Immortal.

However.

Once inherited, one must fulfill her last wish, otherwise, they will suffer from the "Heavenly Curse" and explode into their demise!

"I have made everything clear."

Granny Liang said to Qin Feng, "Are you willing to inherit the power of Lady Immortal?"

"I am not willing." Qin Feng said.

Pfft!

Granny Liang almost spat out blood and said, "Why are you unwilling? Do you know that the power of Lady Immortal is 'Immortal Power'? It's a force that ordinary people could never possess!"

Qin Feng shrugged and said, "Plainly speaking, it's about giving her our 'benefits' in exchange for hiring us to 'work' for her, isn't it? I don't even know what her will is, what if it involves climbing mountains of swords, plunging into seas of fire? In short, you should make the conditions clear first!"

"We cannot say now, only after the appropriate candidates from all Five Great Holy Lands have been chosen, can we tell you."

Granny Liang said, clearly frustrated.

The power of the Purple Cloud Immortal, to ordinary people, was nothing short of a reward, yet he equated it to their "work," which was utterly unreasonable!

"Alright! Even if it's easy to achieve, I'm still not willing."

Qin Feng said again.

"Why not?"

Granny Liang was perplexed.

"Because what you're doing is too despicable!" said Qin Feng, "You want to select some strong individuals to 'work' for you, then go find them yourself! Why must it be that only those who are first in the Five Great Holy Lands can inherit, causing the already chaotic Cultivation World to become even more disordered, with countless deaths and injuries, don't you think you are the instigators?"

"Only those who make it to the first place have the right to inherit the power of our Lady Immortal!"

Granny Liang said angrily.

"But, so many people from our world have died, how can you justify that?"

Qin Feng stated.

"Where there is a struggle, there is sacrifice, and moreover, do you think it's us who caused countless deaths and injuries in your world? Not necessarily, in some way, we are also saving you!" Granny Liang said, "You are not from the Upper Realm, you may not yet know, and before long, your world is going to experience an apocalyptic war!"

"Oh?!"

Qin Feng's eyebrows sharpened.

Granny Liang continued, "I don't mind telling you, your world has been targeted by those above!"

"Above?"

Qin Feng's eyebrows grew even tighter.

"That's right, those above have already decided to make your world a sacrificial lamb, if preparations aren't made early, once the disaster strikes, your world will be devasted," Granny Liang said, "Now, our efforts are akin to rallying you all together in advance, it is for your own good, not to be in panicked disarray when the time comes..."
