Dragon King Palace: Urban Affluent Son-in-Law-Chapter 1173: You Scoundrel, Finally Remembered Me?
Quiet!
The entire living room was filled with an eerie silence!
Amidst the stillness, Jiang Feng finally turned his face and looked toward the corner of the room at Nangong Jinming and Zhao Chunhua.
The "pitiful" couple was still clinging to each other, their bodies convulsing, foaming at the mouth, incontinent.
In the instant Jiang Feng glanced at them, they inexplicably started giggling, drooling at the mouth.
Clearly, during the earlier battle, they had been scared witless and turned into two imbeciles.
Jiang Feng thought it over again and again, ultimately suppressing the impulse to take action against them.
Two ordinary people who'd lost their wits, even if killed, would not convert much demonic Qi, only dirtying his hands!
He then operated the Devouring Sky Demon Technique, absorbing the demonic Qi from the scattered corpses and bloodstains on the ground and walls, cleansing everything as if it had been washed clean, and then he walked back into the small bedroom.
At this moment, Nangong Qingcheng was still curled up inside, her hands covering her ears.
Noticing someone entering, she immediately turned around!
The instant she saw it was Jiang Feng, safe and sound, she couldn't hold back her tears, immediately leaping from the bed, rushing to embrace him tightly.
"It's okay now," he softly said.
Jiang Feng gently stroked Nangong Qingcheng's back, calming her anxious emotions.
Nangong Qingcheng sobbed in Jiang Feng's arms for a while before lifting her tearful face, asking, "Jiang Feng, what's the situation outside, what about Uncle and Aunt?"
"Those bad guys have been punished and driven away by me. As for your uncle and aunt—"
Jiang Feng thought of a compromise, saying only they were driven away, rather than killed, to minimize Nangong Qingcheng's psychological shadow.
He refrained from killing Nangong Jinming and Zhao Chunhua also considering Nangong Qingcheng's feelings.
After all, slaying "family" would undoubtedly be a significant shock to Nangong Qingcheng. Better to let them fend for themselves!
"What happened to them?" Nangong Qingcheng asked anxiously.
Her feelings were complicated; on one hand, she resented those two for being treacherous, collaborating with outsiders to harm her and Jiang Feng.
Yet, they had been her relatives for nearly twenty years. Growing up calling them "Uncle" and "Aunt," such intimate bonds made her both angry and pained seeing them harmed.
"Go see for yourself."
Jiang Feng knew that ultimately Nangong Qingcheng would soften, he sighed and said.
Nangong Qingcheng hesitated, then reluctantly left Jiang Feng's embrace, ran out barefoot from the small bedroom.
Upon seeing the scene outside, she was instantly stunned!
No wonder she'd heard so many chaotic sounds before; had the whole place almost been torn apart?!
The living room was in complete disarray; the sofa, TV, coffee table, even the chandelier shattered, with glass shards scattered everywhere.
Yet, those five vicious elders were nowhere to be seen!
Only Nangong Jinming and Zhao Chunhua remained, clinging to each other in the corner, giggling and crying, seemingly trapped in a nightmare.
"Uncle, Aunt..."
Nangong Qingcheng's heart ached at the sight; she instinctively wanted to approach, but soon covered her mouth and nose.
The unbearable stench from their incontinence immediately repelled her.
"Jiang Feng, what's happened to them?"
Nangong Qingcheng turned back and asked Jiang Feng.
"Don't look at me, they made themselves this way. I wouldn't touch them; that would only dirty my hands." Jiang Feng said calmly.
Nangong Qingcheng hesitated to speak further; she trusted Jiang Feng but could only surmise that Uncle and Aunt had brought this upon themselves, punished by fate!
"What should we do now? Are we... completely safe? Should we report this?" Nangong Qingcheng asked again.
She remained somewhat on edge, the previous events too thrilling, too sudden for her to process!
If Jiang Feng hadn't returned today, she shuddered to think what those depraved men might have done once they regained their strength.
She had been so close to losing her dignity!
"We should report it."
Jiang Feng thought it over, deciding to call in the authorities to handle the scene was indeed a good choice.
The sudden appearance of two lunatics would surely attract attention sooner or later.
Although the earlier commotion went unnoticed, that was only because it was a working day and everyone was at work.
Once they returned to such a mess, they'd likely alert the authorities.
And since Jiang Feng had come to Guihua District, he was sure to be seen on security cameras, making him implicated.
So, it was better to proactively involve the authorities, sparing much unnecessary trouble.
Thus, he asked Nangong Qingcheng to wait back in the small bedroom while he took out his phone to call Situ Yan.
"Finally remembered me, did you?"
Upon connection, Situ Yan's voice came through, laden with reproach.
She'd been waiting for Jiang Feng's call for so long, and now he'd finally thought of her!
Jiang Feng was momentarily speechless, glancing at the bedroom, relieved that Nangong Qingcheng hadn't heard this, else he'd be thoroughly embarrassed!
"There's something I need you here for," Jiang Feng said succinctly.
"Hmph, only when there's something to deal with!"
Situ Yan sighed with exasperation and jealousy, "What is it? Tell me!"
"I'm at Guihua District, just now here..."
Jiang Feng left nothing out, describing the recent events in detail.
Upon hearing, Situ Yan realized the gravity, promptly setting aside her jealousy and replying: "Alright! Wait for me at the scene, I'm coming over with reinforcements immediately!"
…
After hanging up, Jiang Feng returned to the small bedroom to find Nangong Qingcheng sitting alone on the bed, dazedly holding her delicate feet.
She was crying again, her eyes red and swollen, silently sobbing.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Feng felt a pang of agony, approached, and sat at the edge of the bed asking.
"Jiang Feng, why would something like this happen out of nowhere? We were supposed to be a harmonious family..."
Nangong Qingcheng cried uncontrollably, tears streaming down: "Uncle and Aunt were so good to me before, treating me no differently from cousin, but now..."
"Do you feel sorry for them?" Jiang Feng sighed and asked.
"No, I'm heartbroken for Grandpa!"
Nangong Qingcheng's eyes were scarlet: "If he learns about Uncle and Aunt's state, how would he cope? He's already so old, not long ago burying his black-haired son as a white-haired father, and now his second son and daughter-in-law have both become imbeciles. I fear he can't endure it..."
