Feng Ruoxing said, "Almost all the experts in the northeastern esoteric world are concentrated in Long Province, and the Meng family's exorcists are among the most outstanding."

"During the Meng family's heyday, they reached the point of dominating a province. Although they are not as glorious as they once were, their position in the esoteric world of Long Province is still pivotal."

"Let's put it this way! If the Meng family goes to war with the Ao Xue Sect, neither side will gain much advantage."

I waved my hand dismissively, "Let's not talk about the Meng family for now, this matter of a live-in son-in-law is completely unfounded! There's no need to pay attention to it."

Feng Ruoxing didn't think so, "You can't say that. There's no smoke without fire. There must be some reason why the Meng family came looking. Maybe Uncle Li really had a marriage agreement with them, you just don't know about it."

I pondered for a moment, and there was indeed such a possibility.

My dad kept everything to himself and rarely spoke out. Didn't he keep the chicken farming a secret from me for more than ten years?

Plus, things happened so suddenly back then, he left in a hurry. Apart from teaching me how to escape, he didn't explain anything else before he left.

Perhaps, there really is such a possibility.

I curled my lips and said, "So what if he forgot to tell me about a childhood betrothal? What's done is done, I won't admit it anyway. If the Meng family dares to cause trouble, then so be it."

As soon as I finished speaking, I saw Ye Yang staring at me with his eyes wide open, not blinking.

I was startled by him, "What are you looking at?"

Ye Yang said with a straight face, "I want to see if there's anything different about you. Why does the Meng family have to find you?"

Feng Ruoxing chimed in, "What Ye Yang said is the key point. With the Meng family's strength and status, if they want a live-in son-in-law, not to mention exorcists, they could easily find some talented young men in the secular world. Why do they have to find Li Po?"

Feng Ruoxing said, "If it's just to honor a promise, I don't think it's very likely. After all, Uncle Li has been missing for many years, and this promise may not be worth much anymore. Moreover..."

Feng Ruoxing glanced at my face, "Li Po hasn't returned to his hometown for many years, how did the Meng family find Li Po? Aren't these things worth questioning?"

I also fell silent. I really hadn't thought about so much just now.

Feng Ruoxing said, "I think, if the Meng family comes again, Li Po shouldn't get angry first, and see what they really want to do before deciding."

I nodded slightly on the surface, but I felt even more uncomfortable in my heart.

Even if my dad really had some agreement with the Meng family back then, the Meng family didn't need to be so arrogant. What did they take me, Li Po, for? A live-in son-in-law who had to climb the Meng family's high branch?

Besides, I can completely understand that the Meng family's daughter doesn't want to marry a stranger. I don't care about canceling the engagement. We don't even know each other, what is there to talk about marriage?

However, I can't understand her actions. The Meng family sent someone over as her maternal uncle. That Meng family's daughter, whom I've never met, couldn't possibly not know what kind of person her maternal uncle was. Letting such a person come to flaunt his power, that Meng family's daughter is not a kind person either.

I said I wouldn't do anything, but I didn't think that way in my heart.

The Meng family better not provoke me. If they do, I'll turn their triple happiness into white lanterns hanging at the door (a sign of mourning).

My face was stern for three days, and the Meng family came to my door.

This time, the Meng family came prepared. Just the first-rate experts acting as guards numbered twenty. The middle-aged woman leading the group said as soon as she entered, "You are Li Po?"

My face darkened and I was about to speak, but Feng Ruoxing, who was standing beside me, pressed on my shoulder, meaning: let me speak politely.

I suppressed my anger and said, "I am Li Po, who are you?"

The woman looked at Feng Ruoxing and said, "My Meng family's son-in-law cannot be touched by any woman. You don't need that hand anymore. Go and cut off her hand for me."

As the Meng family guards drew their swords and stepped forward, Ye Yang's sword light burst forth, cutting off the arm of the person holding the knife with a single strike.

Before that person could scream, my twin sabers followed closely, two crescent moons of cold light sweeping across the opponent's knees, leaving his legs on the ground.

The two curved sabers drew an arc and flew back into my hands.

I said with a gloomy face, "My Liangjie Hall is not a place where anyone can enter. I want his legs."

The corners of the Meng family woman's mouth couldn't help but curl up into a sneer, "As expected, you're useless. You can't even distinguish between a person and a puppet. With that, you're only fit to be a live-in son-in-law."

As the Meng family woman spoke, the guard who had fallen to the ground had already turned into a wooden puppet.

I said lightly, "You were so close, and you didn't even know that my attack didn't injure your guard. It seems that the Meng family is just all show and no substance."

The Meng family woman's expression changed slightly, and a scream had already come from the crowd. Blood spurted out from the wrists and feet of the guard standing in the back row, instantly staining the ground red.

"Curse!" The old man standing next to the Meng family woman's face changed, and he pushed away the guard in the crowd.

I said lightly, "What's the rush? I have a sense of propriety. I just severed his tendons. Find a doctor to reattach them, and he won't be disabled."

Except for the guard who fell to the ground and subconsciously let out a cry, the remaining twenty-odd members of the Meng family all stood still. They didn't even move their eyeballs much.

Although I spoke lightly, I couldn't help but take a higher look at the Meng family in my heart.

A well-trained, unflappable guard is the foundation of the Meng family.

A trace of emotional change finally appeared on the Meng family woman's face, "Curse and martial arts combined into one, your cultivation is passable. You deserve your recent reputation."

The Meng family woman sat down, "Live-in son-in-law's first test, you've passed."
