Matrilocal Son-in-law Is Supreme

Ever since her sister had passed away, Xiao Tiantian's daily clothes had turned black. Her previously bashful and bashful demeanor had turned silent. Although she looked similar on the surface, she gave off a completely different feeling.    

    

Shen Lang didn't have much to say to her change in attitude. He could only hope that she would be better after she recovered from her sadness.    

    

But now, she had an indescribable gloominess about her. It was hard to tell if she had heavy black eye makeup or dark circles under her eyes from lack of sleep, and her skin was even paler than before.    

    

"What's wrong, Mr Shen? Is there something on my face?" Xiao Tiantian asked.    

    

Shen Lang came back to his senses. "No …" You... How have you been? "    

    

"Mm, very good." Xiao Tiantian gave Shen Lang a sweet smile.    

    

Shen Lang asked her: "Why aren't you opening your store today?"    

    

Xiao Tiantian held onto the mop. "The employees in the store have been working hard recently, so I gave them two days off."    

    

"So that's how it is." Shen Lang looked into the kitchen. "Is there anything to eat? I'm hungry."    

    

An almost imperceptible expression of bewilderment flashed across Xiao Tiantian's face. "Erm … No, Mr Shen, go eat somewhere else. I need to go to the school library after I pack up. "    

    

Shen Lang stared at Xiao Tiantian and suddenly stepped forward to grab her wrist.    

    

Xiao Tiantian was shocked, "Mr Shen, you..." What is it? "    

    

"Strange, why is there one type of poison in your body … "It seems like I've encountered a strange power somewhere …" Shen Lang's brows gradually furrowed. Suddenly, his expression froze: "It's Gao Kun!"    

    

Hearing Gao Kun's name, a layer of black fog appeared in Xiao Tiantian's eyes. However, it disappeared in the blink of an eye. However, Shen Lang still saw it clearly.    

    

Xiao Tiantian shook off her hand, turned around and continued dragging the mop, "Mr Shen, aren't you hungry? Let's go to another restaurant to eat."    

    

That cold voice made Shen Lang a little stunned.    

    

The last time Shen Lang saw Gao Kun was at Xiao Qiaoqiao's memorial service. Not only was Gao Kun, who was supposed to have his neck twisted off, still alive, he seemed to have some extraordinary ability.    

    

It was also at that time that Shen Lang felt a strange power circulating in Gao Kun's body. However, he did not inspect Gao Kun's body closely at that time.    

    

And now, Xiao Tiantian had the same kind of power.    

    

This matter was out of the ordinary, Shen Lang had to get to the bottom of this.    

    

"Tiantian, why do you have a strange power in your body?" Shen Lang asked seriously.    

    

Xiao Tiantian didn't even raise her head, much less answer Shen Lang.    

    

"Do you know that this power of yours is almost exactly the same as Gao Kun's? It also contains a chilling intent. Just where did this power come from?"    

    

Xiao Tiantian's body stiffened. "Tell me …" He has that kind of power too? "    

    

Shen Lang bent his body slightly and put his hands on Xiao Tiantian's shoulders, "Tell me, what happened to you."    

    

Xiao Tiantian lowered her head. "It's alright, even if he has the same power, I can still …" "Kill him."    

    

Shen Lang was shocked. He suddenly felt Xiao Tiantian's body was emitting a faint black fog. His hands tightened and a golden light flashed in his palms. It was only then that the black fog was suppressed.    

    

Xiao Tiantian wanted to struggle free, but Shen Lang said in a deep voice, "This power is too strange. If you don't tell me the truth, I will dissipate it for you right now!"    

    

"NO!" Mr Shen! "No!" Xiao Tiantian looked up in fear. She could feel an unusual power surging out of Shen Lang's palm, slowly dissipating her own power.    

    

Seeing Xiao Tiantian's frightened and pitiful eyes, Shen Lang's heart softened and he let go of his hand.    

    

Xiao Tiantian bit her lips and hesitated for a while before speaking, "Three days ago, Gao Kun came here and told me that he caused my sister's suicide. If I don't hand over what he wanted, I will die too …" Even the employees of the store are threatened with death! "    

    

Shen Lang's expression turned serious: "What does he want?"    

    

"What he wants is the stone-like thing that elder sister gave you. I told him that I wouldn't give it to him, and even if it was in my hand, I wouldn't give it to him."    

    

"You can tell him that the thing is with me and ask him to come find me." Shen Lang said in heartache.    

    

Xiao Tiantian shook her head. "I can't bring you any trouble."    

    

Shen Lang's expression was complex: "Then, why do you have such an evil power?"    

    

Xiao Tiantian then told Shen Lang everything about her encounter with Xue Cheng, the genius in graffiti in the alley, and the series of strange events that happened afterwards.    

    

After hearing all of this, Shen Lang was extremely shocked: "You actually summoned the salesperson!?"    

    

Then, he came to a realization again: "I understand, Gao Kun's power also seems to come from the shop assistant."    

    

Xiao Tiantian tilted her head. "Mr Shen, you know about 'Trade Supervisor'?"    

    

Shen Lang's brows scrunched together into a knot: "This is a very mysterious existence. Some call them the emissaries of hell, some call them demons, and they call themselves business operators. In fact, they have a special title, called them — — Dark Apostle."    

    

"Dark..." Disciple? " Xiao Tiantian had a puzzled expression.    

    

Shen Lang scratched his chin: "Hmm, where did the Dark Apostle come from, no one knows, they seem to be something completely condensed from energy. Sometimes they would show themselves, but most of the time they were summoned. The summoner can sign a contract with the Dark Apostle and use the soul as the price to exchange for the ability or power he wants. This power was called the power of the Dark Apostle Contract. In order to guarantee that the owner can obtain a soul after the contract expires, the power of the contract will also allow the owner to obtain an immortal body within the contract time limit. "    

    

"The soul... The operator, oh no, that Dark Apostle, did indeed say that. Mr Shen, do you really have a soul? "    

    

Shen Lang explained, "The soul is a special kind of energy."    

    

"Oh …" It's the same as what the Dark Apostle said. "    

    

Shen Lang's face turned green: "You really signed a one-year contract with him? Do you know what you're going to face in a year's time? "    

    

Xiao Tiantian feigned a relaxed expression. "He'll probably die tragically like Xue Cheng, but for my sister's sake, I'm not afraid."    

    

Shen Lang shook his head: "That is not a tragic death, but a soul that was forcefully separated from the body bit by bit. Although the soul is essentially a type of energy, it still retains consciousness for a period of time after it has left the body. "Therefore, when someone's soul is forcibly snatched away, the person whose soul is stolen will feel a pain a thousand times more painful than Ling Chi's!    

    

Xiao Tiantian's face turned paler and paler. She clenched her fists and said, "I …" I... "It's still tolerable …"    

    

Shen Lang lamented from the bottom of his heart, "There is only one year left to live. After one year, you will be robbed of your soul and you will die of pain. Is that really worth it?" Your sister's last wish is for you to live well! Furthermore, if my guess is correct, Gao Kun also made a contract with the Dark Apostle. This means that you don't need to do anything, he will die in the most painful way. "    

    

Xiao Tiantian looked at Shen Lang. "Just treat it as me disobeying big sister's words …" As for Gao Kun, there's a difference between dying on his own and being killed by me, even if he dies tomorrow. If I can kill him today, then it would count as me personally taking revenge for my sister. "    

    

Only then did Shen Lang realize that this seemingly weak girl was even more stubborn than his sister.    

    

After a long period of silence, Shen Lang told Xiao Tiantian, "Gao Kun also obtained the power of the Dark Apostle Contract, which means he is no longer an ordinary person. How can you kill him?"    

    

Xiao Tiantian's expression relaxed a little. "About this …" It was just like reading a book. Although they were the same teacher, some students were able to get first place while others were only able to get last place. So... Even if he is the same as me, with the power of the Dark Apostle Contract, I am confident that I can kill him. "    

    

"You're right." Shen Lang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.    

    

"Mr Shen …"    

    

"Hmm?"    

    

Xiao Tiantian's cold hand gently held Shen Lang's big hand: "I know my decision very well, you …" "Don't feel sorry for me."    

    

Shen Lang lowered his eyes: "He came to find you three days ago but didn't get anything. He probably won't let it go."    

    

"Mm, he'll come again tonight. I gave the shop assistant a leave to wait for him to appear."    

    

Shen Lang looked at Xiao Tiantian's big eyes and said, "Since that's the case, I'll help you."    

    

Xiao Tiantian bit her lips. "I hope to avenge my sister on my own."    

    

Shen Lang lightly scratched the tip of her nose, "Little girl, you are immortal right now, and so is Gao Kun. Unless you two make a contract until the day it expires, there will be no difference between life and death. If you don't allow me to help, how will you avenge yourself? "
