Immortal Emperor's Life As A Son-in-law

The middle-aged man's tone was very light, but as he spoke, his eyes didn't leave Xiao Chen's face.    

    

Initially, he thought that Xiao Chen would be somewhat touched upon hearing this.    

    

However, Xiao Chen's expression did not change, as if he had heard of an old hen laying an egg just now.    

    

"As expected, you are able to have this kind of self-discipline at the age of twenty. I have never seen a young man who is more outstanding than you."    

    

The middle-aged man wasn't disappointed. Instead, he sincerely praised him.    

    

Seeing that the tea Qi in front of Xiao Chen was gradually disappearing, he continued, "Why? Does it not suit your taste? Or are you afraid that I will poison you?"    

    

Just now, it was like an old friend talking about the heavens, but this did not seem like a joke, making the atmosphere a little tense.    

    

"Where is he?" Drinking tea with an enemy? Even with Xiao Chen's cultivation, he did not want to waste this time!    

    

"Since those two kids told you everything, then you should know the rules. I never touch the target."    

    

"I'm asking you, where are they?" Xiao Chen asked again. He did not believe such nonsense.    

    

"I do not understand what you mean!" The middle-aged man shook his head. He did not waver because of Xiao Chen's cold tone.    

    

"You should understand!" Xiao Chen sighed helplessly. The killing intent on his face became stronger.    

    

"He is indeed young and aggressive. Don't be so agitated. Drink some tea first and calm down. If it is cold, it will not be good to drink anymore!"    

    

As he spoke, the middle-aged man directly pushed the teacup in front of Xiao Chen towards Xiao Chen with a smile on his face.    

    

Xiao Chen couldn't help but glance at the cup, then swept his gaze over the middle-aged man. Only then did he pick up the cup and drink it in one gulp.    

    

"Even if it's hot tea, it doesn't taste good!"    

    

The old man filled another cup for Xiao Chen, but this time he didn't try to persuade him to continue. He turned his head and glanced at the sky.    

    

"I have a question that I have always been curious about. I have wanted to ask you in person from before."    

    

The middle-aged man said that he wanted to ask Xiao Chen for guidance, but he did not wait for Xiao Chen to answer at all.    

    

"Why did you use ten million to buy my place back then? I don't think I should give myself away."    

    

"It's nothing. I just suddenly wanted to spend money." Xiao Chen said in a low voice.    

    

This was just his animal instinct. It was also the alertness that he had raised from countless dangerous experiences in his two lives.    

    

The main reason was that he suspected the car. So he also suspected the abandoned car park.    

    

The sudden offer of ten million "sky high" to buy this abandoned car park was just a test out of habit.    

    

However, although this middle-aged man rejected his proposal, he did not display any excessive vigilance and vigilance.    

    

Moreover, a cripple who could not even defend a car was naturally at a disadvantage.    

    

Therefore, Xiao Chen finally dispelled that suspicion and did not even walk in to take a look.    

    

The middle-aged man was also smart. Looking at his appearance and hearing his tone, it was obvious that he didn't want to talk about this matter.    

    

The middle-aged man did not insist and squatted down to take another sip of the tea.    

    

"Indeed, it has been deserted for too long. This person has accompanied us to drink tea and chat. His mood is much better than before."    

    

"Perfect. I remember what you asked. A few days ago, a friend lent me a place to put something."    

    

Xiao Chen heard him and immediately asked in a deep voice, "So, where is he?"    

    

But she had been paying attention to the aura that was hidden in the dark.    

    

He only scanned the entire shed once, but he did not find any place to hide people.    

    

That was why he was patient and pestered this middle-aged man. Otherwise, he would have made a move a long time ago!    

    

This person was too smart, so Xiao Chen did not dare to act rashly.    

    

The Liang family's old man could die, but he definitely could not die in Xiao Chen's hands. He was afraid that this middle-aged man would set him up!    

    

"I didn't say it was a person. I am a good citizen. If I didn't do anything about imprisoning others, I wouldn't do it in the future."    

    

Although this fellow had indirectly admitted that he was secretly targeting the people on the Dawn Jade Platform, he had never personally admitted anything.    

    

Up until now, this guy was still as cautious as ever.    

    

"But if you're interested in the things my friend stores, I can bring you to take a look."    

    

Xiao Chen originally did not have much patience and had already considered whether he should use force or not.    

    

However, the middle-aged man suddenly changed his mind, which made Xiao Chen unable to react in time.    

    

The middle-aged man did not say anything else. He placed the teacup down and slowly stood up from the chair. He also patted his butt.    

    

He then grabbed the crutch and limped to the side. Just as he passed by the door, he suddenly grabbed the wall.    

    

After a crisp sound, the entire floor suddenly tilted.    

    

Xiao Chen was caught off guard and rolled into the black hole along with the tables and chairs.    

    

As soon as he landed, the light above his head dimmed.    

    

Then... There was a crisp hissing sound. A thick layer of smoke spread down along the tubes hanging from the underground walls.    

    

From low to high, first it was the ankle, then it went over Xiao Chen's knee, and then it went all the way to the top of his head.    

    

In less than two to three minutes, the thick smoke filled up the entire underground space.    

    

Xiao Chen's body, which was still barely able to stand, also shook a few times, and with a bang, he fell onto the cold ground.    

    

Poison gas, that's right, this was poison gas! It was even stronger than the poison in the tea just now.    

    

In this enclosed space, the poison would be maximized.    

    

Xiao Chen's limp figure gradually curled up and stuck to the wall, trembling. His face also instantly turned white.    

    

Time did not stop because of this. Every second in the underground space seemed to have passed a year.    

    

In the end, Xiao Chen's trembling body stopped, and he weakly stood on the ground. He had already let out a lot of air, but not much.    

    

It was only at this moment that the sound of a drum could be heard.    

    

As the sound continued, the poisonous fog that filled the basement was instantly extracted from the space.    

    

The misty space gradually regained its clarity. It was only when the poisonous gas was completely expelled that the electric lamp lit up.    

    

Then, a human figure walked out from the stone wall beside it.    

    

On the wall, there was a stone door that was opened and connected to another basement.    

    

In that space, a person who looked like a dumpling was tied up in a chair. There were no wounds on his body.    

    

However, he was the same as Xiao Chen. He didn't get much air, but he got more air. He rolled his eyes and was in a daze.    

    

The owner of the car walked in with a gas mask. He took out something and tested it on the ground. Then, he threw the mask away.    

    

He calmly put the chair in front of him and sat down with his cane.    

    

"Being young and aggressive has never been a compliment. Do you know how much effort I have put in to lure you here? Even though it is not the result I want the most, but after you die, I will send the entire Chu's to hell with you!"    

    

At this moment, a ferocious expression finally appeared on his face. He stared at Xiao Chen and laughed exaggeratedly.    

    

It was like a person who had been suppressed for decades and had never laughed before had finally been released at this moment.    

    

"Why, why did you have to do this to me?" Lying on the ground, Xiao Chen asked weakly.
