SSS rank Mother-In-Law to an Invincible Family-Chapter 414: Let’s Celebrate

Meanwhile, at the altar where Xu Qianghua stood, the atmosphere was a little tense, especially for those who were not from the Xu family.

The reason for this was simple, as the display of power had left a deep impression on them, and they did not know how to react.

But there were a few people who were not bothered by this, and they were the leaders of the other clans, as they had already seen the Xu family's true power before and were not too surprised about what had just happened.

Meanwhile, high above Nexara, hidden within a pocket of space untouched by the world's natural laws, Xu Qianghua's parents watched everything unfold.

From the moment the World Upgrade began, to the Space Pirates' release and their inevitable slaughter, they had observed it all.

Xu Qianghua's father sat in his chair, his expression calm but thoughtful. His wife stood beside him, arms crossed as she watched the last remnants of the pirates vanish from the world.

"He's grown a lot," his wife commented.

Her husband nodded, his eyes narrowed.

"But that was... surprisingly one-sided."

"I was expecting a little bit more resistance," his wife added, "but I suppose the World's Will did not expect our son to turn out this powerful, which turned a world incident into this."

Her husband hummed.

"Maybe."

Then, after a brief pause, he sighed.

"But there were no losses," she murmured. "Not a single one."

That was what truly set this timeline apart from the last.

In their previous lives, the First Upgrade Challenge had been a disaster.

The world's leaders at the time hadn't been prepared.

They had underestimated the enemy.

They had relied on their own strength without proper battle experience, and by the time they realized their mistake, the damage had already been done.

The casualties had been staggering. Tens of thousands of cultivators—some of the most talented of their generation—had died before they could even fight back properly.

And yet now, here they were.

Not a single human had died.

Not a single Xu family soldier had fallen.

In fact, the only casualty had been the pirates.

It was almost unbelievable.

The difference was astounding.

Her husband sighed, his eyes filled with pride and concern.

"He has surpassed my expectations," he admitted. "To think that his cultivation would reach such a level..."

His wife nodded.

"I agree."

For a moment, the two of them were silent.

Then, his wife chuckled.

"But, you know, the Space Pirates did not really have a chance against our son and his wives."

Her husband smiled faintly.

"Indeed. To be able to defeat the first group of Space Pirates without even breaking a sweat and having the other groups wiped out in a few minutes... he has truly grown beyond what I imagined."

Her eyes flashed.

"Well, what can I say? He is our son."

"And it looks like the others have noticed that too," her husband said, nodding towards the distant figures of the other family heads.

"Indeed. I imagine they will start to treat him a little bit differently from now on."

"I would not mind," her husband replied. "I would rather see him gain their respect and support rather than have them be wary and cautious around him."

His wife smirked.

"But it's not like they can do anything to him now, especially with his recent breakthrough and the way he killed those pirates," she said.

"Oh, they will certainly try, and they will fail, but they will learn not to mess with us," her husband agreed.

"As expected."

....

Back in Nexara.

After the World's Will's decree, the Xu Family Army and the rest of the people had been dismissed and allowed to return to their normal lives, and since the challenge was completed, there was no need to stay here.

The Xu family army returned to their hidden bases, which the other families had not found yet. This is due to a large number of formations, which made anyone who got close to the base forget everything about this and transported them to a city on a different continent.

But due to their remote locations, the number of times these kinds of incidents occurred was minimal, so it was not such a big deal.

Meanwhile, Xu Qianghua and his wives were celebrating the successful world upgrade in a luxurious restaurant owned by Liu Meiying's chamber of commerce.

All the wives were gathered around the table, chatting excitedly about the future, their faces flushed with happiness and satisfaction.

The wine flowed freely, and the conversation was lively.

Xu Qianghua was relaxed; his mood was also lifted as he watched all these beautiful women having fun, and he couldn't help but think about how all of this was different compared to his previous life.

At that time, no one was in the mood to celebrate as the casualties were so many that there was always someone's family member or friend who had died, which made everyone feel bad and sad, but now, all of that had changed.

And not only was this the case, but the world's overall situation was much better.

The food and the drinks were plentiful. The atmosphere was joyous. And the women were smiling.

"So," he said, raising his cup. "To the future!"

"To the future!" The others echoed.

Clink!

The cups touched, and the alcohol was drained.

It was a good feeling.

The atmosphere was warm and relaxed, and everyone was happy.

There was no sense of danger or urgency.

It was just a time to enjoy life.

"To be honest, I didn't expect things to turn out like this," Xu Qianghua admitted. "To think that the Space Pirates would be so easy to take care of and that we wouldn't suffer any casualties at all."

"It's not really that surprising when you think about it," Lin Yue said.

"After all, we are much stronger and more experienced than the last time the world was upgraded."

"I guess so."

"But still, it's hard to believe," An Zhihao chimed in. "This is all so surreal. It's like a dream come true."

"Well, not exactly," Xu Qianghua chuckled. "In a dream, there are no challenges, no risks, and no failures. In the real world, there is a chance that we could lose, but in the end, it is worth the risk."
