Matrilocal Son-in-law Is Supreme

Shen Lang and Que De quickly walked out of the room. The first thing they saw was an old man with a kind face and a strong spirit. He looked to be in his seventies, and looked to be quite the sage. The old man was standing on the open space in front of the door, chatting with a few miners without any airs of arrogance.    

    

"Elder Xiao, if you don't see us in person, why have you come in person? If you have anything to say, make a phone call. We'll head to Source Alliance to receive your orders." Que De walked forward and said politely.    

    

"I can't sit around all the time. Come out for a walk." Xiao Youzhi chuckled.    

    

"Elder Xiao, please come in." Shen Lang said, "It's a little simple and crude inside, please take care of it."    

    

"Sorry for the trouble." Xiao Youzhi said politely to Ge Ye behind the two and said, "Bro, thank you for the message."    

    

"I do not dare, I do not dare. You are too courteous. It is what we should do …" Ge Ye was so scared that he almost knelt down in front of Xiao Youzhi.    

    

"We overseers are too timid, we get nervous whenever we meet big figures." Que De said, "Elder Xiao, please come in."    

    

After entering the room, Que De put away the instant noodles on the table and used the hot water in the thermos to make a pot of tea.    

    

"There's no need to be busy. I'll just say a few words and leave." Xiao Youzhi said as he took out a crystal clear black bead and placed it on the table.    

    

"This little thing is called the Bead of Silence. It is also a special kind of magical equipment. One injection of Origin Energy can isolate sound within a circumference of three meters. If we speak now, no one can hear us more than three meters away. "    

    

Xiao Youzhi's actions confused Shen Lang and Que De.    

    

"Shen Lang, Que De, it's hard to hide one's identity just by forging an identity card. It's easy to find out if one's identity hasn't changed." Xiao Youzhi chuckled and said, "Aiya, don't be nervous. I can't beat you two either."    

    

However, Shen Lang and Que De were very vigilant. Xiao Youzhi only met them once yesterday and said their real names.    

    

Then, Xiao Youzhi took out his phone and clicked on a photo.    

    

The photo was of Shen Lang, Que, Fu Pingtao, Dong Ping, Xiao Yan, Da Shun, Xu Mang, and a few others sitting around a wine table. It was taken when they had parted ways.    

    

"Didn't you guys know a little bastard named Xiao in the past?" Xiao Youzhi said, "He never mentioned a word to me?"    

    

"You're Xiao Yan's grandfather?" Shen Lang and Que De stood up and said respectfully.    

    

"Sit down, don't be so polite." Xiao Youzhi said, "My good-for-nothing grandson just sent me this photo a few days ago and made a phone call. I recognized you both as soon as I saw you yesterday. Don't worry, I'll handle your files. As long as I don't give any orders, no one will investigate you. I heard from Xiao Yan that in the army, the two of you took special care of him and even saved his life. As for that young man called Tu Dou, he died to save Xiao Yan. I have done my best to settle down his family and will take care of him in the future. Later on, didn't you guys still give him the Source Core and a very precious blade? This Soundproof Pearl is a little gift from this old man. Take it with you and it will be more convenient for you to do business in the future. "However, you all are indeed very cautious. The soundproofing of this house is very good."    

    

"We're all like brothers, it's only right that we take care of each other." Que De said.    

    

Knowing that Xiao Youzhi was Xiao Yan's grandfather, Shen Lang and Que De immediately felt that he had become more amiable.    

    

"That's right, Shen Lang, in the future, try not to make any moves here." Xiao Youzhi said, "You must be the one who stole all the bodies of the Source Energy from the refinery a few days ago, right?"    

    

"It's me." Shen Lang smiled awkwardly. Since Xiao Youzhi had mentioned it, it meant that he already knew about it and there was no need for him to hide it anymore.    

    

"I have already stepped into the True Rank and am relatively sensitive to energy. When you made your move last night, I could already feel the boundless Origin Energy in your body. However, no one else present will be able to detect it. " Xiao Youzhi said, "Source Cultivator close to the True Rank like me, when you circulate your Origin Energy, you can sense the Origin Energy in your body within a thousand meters. If it was a real True Rank Source Cultivator, the distance would be around five thousand meters. Therefore, when you attack here in the future, you must think of an idea to hide it from others. "    

    

"Thank you for the reminder." Shen Lang said.    

    

"There's no need to be courteous to me." Xiao Youzhi laughed and said. He took out a yellow booklet and a wallet, "I came this time for no other reason but to remind you to be careful. Moreover, this ancient tome on how to change one's appearance through acupuncture, you can use it after leaving the Blood-red Desert. Inside this wallet, there are some gold needles. "    

    

"Thank you so much." Shen Lang received it respectfully.    

    

"If you two have any questions, you can ask me. I've been here for almost fifty years, so I know some things. " Xiao Youzhi said.    

    

"Elder Xiao, there really is one." Que De poured a cup of tea for Xiao Youzhi and said, "Where did that monster come from last night?"    

    

"Oh, that, the Winged Bat came out of the Unknown Region." Xiao Youzhi drank a mouthful of tea and started to narrate the origins of the Winged Bat.    

    

Xiao Youzhi explained the situation of Unknown Region first.    

    

Unknown Region was the largest region within the Blood-red Desert, while the red sand area could only be considered as the outer perimeter. Within the Unknown Region, there was a thin layer of fog all year round that covered everything inside and blocked all detection from the outside world. Through the research of a few experts, they discovered that there was some kind of extremely strong restriction in the Unknown Region that restricted the creatures inside from coming out. Those outside would be killed quickly by the creatures inside as well, and naturally, they would not be able to survive.    

    

Of course, not everyone who entered the Unknown Region was unable to come out like the rumors. In history, there were some Source Cultivator with great strength that wandered around the outskirts after entering, but they did not dare to enter deeply, and in the end, they did return unscathed. Inside the Unknown Region, they discovered that the thin layer of mist was not only capable of blocking the detection abilities of human senses and machines, but also possessed the ability to create illusions. From what he saw outside, the beasts and birds of Unknown Region and the oasis forest were all lies. There were indeed oases and animals inside, but the real situation was much more tragic. Corpses were strewn all over the place, and monsters ran rampant.    

    

And Winged Bat, was one of the monsters that lived outside the Unknown Region. This kind of monster was born with the strength of a Source Cultivator at the early stage of True Rank. Most of the people who trespassed into the Unknown Region were buried by their hands.
