Chapter 2020: Begins

Book:The All-powerful Son-In-Law Published:2025-2-23

The woman in a blue dress had hair of a shimmering blue shade and eyes like water. Her delicate body exuded a powerful aura.
“They are from the hidden families, The Solitary family and The Storm family.”
“Leading them are two other prodigies, Cyrus Solitary and Celia Storm.”
The cultivators quickly recognized the newcomers.
Four of the five great prodigies had arrived!
Soon, the red flying boat and the blue sea boat came to a stop.
Looking at Noah Shadow and Monk Benjamin, Cyrus, a burly man with eyes burning like flames, said, “Noah Shadow, Benjamin, you two arrived quite early.”
There was a hint of battle intent in his words.
“Cyrus, you are the one who is late,” Noah Shadow replied with a sinister smile.
“Amitabha,” Monk Benjamin simply smiled faintly and chanted a Buddhist mantra.
Cyrus declared boldly, “Being early is useless. My Solitary family will surely obtain the final great opportunity!”
The relationships among the five great prodigies were not harmonious, each competing with the others.
Leo, who had been watching coldly, had a glint in his eyes.
“The Solitary family and The Storm family are both bloodline families. The Solitary family possesses the flame bloodline, while The Storm family has the water spirit bloodline. Both families have produced Spirit God realm experts,” Seraphina said softly beside Leo.
Leo had also learned a bit about these families from Mike.
The most famous hidden families in the Martial Dynasty were The Solitary family and The Storm family.
These two hidden families rarely appeared in the public eye.
The most talented young member of The Solitary family was Cyrus, and for The Storm family, it was naturally Celia.
Both were among the five great prodigies of the Martial Dynasty and were considered the most likely to break through to the Spirit God realm among young cultivators.
A powerful lion’s roar suddenly echoed across the sky.
In the distant sky, six golden giant lions pulled a massive chariot into view.
On the chariot stood about ten people. The person in the center wore a luxurious silver robe with a golden lion embroidered on it.
This person had sharp eyebrows that slanted into his temples, eyes as sharp as an eagle’s, exuding an aura of dominance.
Leo was not unfamiliar with this person, nor were most of the cultivators present.
This person was Salvador, the eldest prince of the Martial Dynasty.
Salvador possessed the royal golden lion bloodline and had received extensive resources from the royal family, making him one of the five great prodigies.
Other princes paled in comparison to Salvador in terms of means, scheming, and depth.
For instance, Prince Caius stood at the front of the chariot but did not attract much attention under Salvador’s aura.
Behind Prince Caius were several powerful elders.
As for the third prince and Prince Tyrese, they did not participate in this Pill Sovereign island expedition due to their lack of strength.
“Haha, as expected of royalty, making a grand entrance last,” Cyrus said with a smile as he looked at the eldest prince.
“Hehe, Cyrus is joking,” Salvador replied with a flash of light in his eyes and a slight smile.
Prince Caius noticed Leo standing in mid-air with his sword and his eyes lit up.
Prince Caius stepped forward and cupped his hands towards Leo’s direction.
Leo smiled and returned the gesture.
“The five great prodigies have gathered.”
“This Pill Sovereign island competition will be intense.”
“With the five great prodigies of the Martial Dynasty here, the prodigies from Godsbane Dynasty and Crescent Dynasty will surely come too…”
The arrival of the five great prodigies brought immense pressure to many cultivators present.
Leo’s gaze swept over the five: “Noah Shadow, young master of Yin Shadow Gate; Monk Benjamin, chief disciple of Diamond Fortress; Cyrus of The Solitary family; Celia Storm of The Storm family; and Salvador, the eldest prince.”
“Leo, these five are very strong,” Seraphina said with a hint of seriousness in her ethereal voice.
Leo nodded. With the five great prodigies of the Martial Dynasty and other dynasties’ prodigies coming, it was easy to imagine that this Pill Sovereign island competition would be extremely fierce and could even become very brutal.
Ten minutes later, the light curtain covering the entire island dimmed slightly, and the weak spots around the island became almost transparent.
“We can enter soon!” The cultivators’ eyes became fervent.
At the same time, cultivators began to put away their spiritual weapons, flying boats, and spirit pet mounts.
A minute later, the weak spots became completely transparent. Looking at it from afar, it seemed as if a hole had been bitten out of the light curtain by silkworms.
“We can enter now!” The nearest cultivators exclaimed with joy.
“Go!” A cultivator with a black broadsword on his back took the lead and rushed forward.
Seeing this, other cultivators unleashed their spiritual power and turned into streaks of light, rushing into the hole in the light curtain.
“Elders, follow me inside,” Noah Shadow said coldly to several black-robed elders behind him as a cold gleam flashed in his left eye.
With that, Noah Shadow turned into a mass of black mist and shot towards the hole in the light curtain.
The black-robed elders followed closely behind Noah Shadow.
“Haha, Noah Shadow, I’m coming too! Let’s see who gets the final opportunity on this Pill Sovereign island!” Cyrus laughed loudly as he turned into a streak of flame and rushed towards the hole in the light curtain.
The people from The Solitary family followed closely behind him.
After The Solitary family came The Storm family, Diamond Fortress, and then the royal family all rushed in as well.
In an instant, more than half of the cultivators above the sea had entered the island.
“Let’s go too,” Leo said to Seraphina beside him.
“Okay,” Seraphina nodded gently.
Then their figures turned into streaks of light and flew towards the hole in the light curtain.
As they approached the hole, Seraphina’s soft hand was suddenly grasped by a large hand.
“What are you doing?” Seraphina instinctively tried to pull away but couldn’t break free.
Leo explained, “Even if we enter at the same time, we might not appear in the same place. Let’s stay together.”
Seraphina did not refuse. Their figures disappeared into the hole in the light curtain together.
Seeing Leo and Seraphina enter hand-in-hand, Gilberto clenched his fists tightly, causing his knuckles to crack audibly.
“Let’s go. I’ll make sure he dies without a burial place on this island!” Gilberto’s voice was icy cold.
With that, Gilberto shot towards the hole in the light curtain first, followed by several elders from Runecarver Sect.
“So that kid really has an unusual relationship with Seraphina!” Ethan from The Yates family also saw them holding hands. His handsome face turned grim.
A beauty like Seraphina with such a unique constitution was not someone Ethan would easily let go of.
“Let’s go!” Ethan turned into a streak of golden light and rushed towards the hole in the light curtain. The people from The Yates family followed closely behind him.
The number of figures above the sea quickly dwindled.
