SSS rank Mother-In-Law to an Invincible Family

Meanwhile, in the Eastern Continent of Nexara.

Chen Zemin, the head of the Chen family, was reviewing a report about the incident involving the evil organization's plans and the city lord's death.

"So, who are these evil cultivators?" he asked his most trusted subordinates, who were also reading the information that had been circulating worldwide at an alarming rate.

This was the first time the world had seen evil cultivators, and the revelation that the city lord was part of the organization made it even more unsettling.

However, it was also a wake-up call. They had never expected that city lords could become evil cultivators, willing to sacrifice anyone just for more power.

"We are not sure, master, but we know they won't give up after this failure. They'll strike even harder next time," a middle-aged man said, stroking his chin thoughtfully.

Hearing this, everyone in the room nodded, agreeing with his assessment.

Chen Zemin gave a slight smile as he spoke,

"I think so too. That's why we should gather all the top families in the Eastern Continent and conduct a widespread search for these evil cultivators.

I know this will be difficult, which is why we'll use this opportunity to unite the top powers in the continent and form a special force trained specifically to deal with these cultivators."

The people in the room nodded again, agreeing that his approach was the right one.

They couldn't help but admire how quickly Chen Zemin had formulated a plan, something few family heads would have done so swiftly.

Most of the older inhabitants came from a world where violence was rare, and laws were set to protect people.

But in this world, those kinds of laws were ineffective. The structure of this new world—and the Void in general—was based on strength.

This meant that, in certain situations, no law or rule could stop the strongest individuals, and that was exactly what was happening now.

However, judging by what they had seen, these evil cultivators weren't necessarily powerful.

Instead, they were cunning, preferring to work in the shadows and only reveal themselves when their plans were about to be executed.

Because of that, none of the top families had noticed their existence until the incident had already occurred.

"Alright, we can discuss how to deal with these cultivators later," Chen Zemin said, his expression serious.

"For now, we need to find out who this group is—the one capable of locating these evil cultivators and stopping them before their plans come to fruition."

"From what I understand, all the other top families are also searching for this group.

We believe that if we find them, we'll gain valuable information about these evil cultivators.

We might even learn how they managed to stop this group of lunatics who were willing to sacrifice an entire city in their first major attack," one of the subordinates added.

"Yes, we need to make sure we are prepared for similar incidents on this continent. And we have to ensure that all the top families understand the seriousness of the situation," Chen Zemin said firmly.

At that moment, one of the men hesitated before speaking. "Should we contact the Xu family?"

The room fell silent as everyone turned to Chen Zemin, awaiting his response.

He thought for a few moments before answering, "I don't think we need to. They should have already received a detailed report.

If I'm not mistaken, they've likely already gathered information about the evil cultivators. In fact, they might even be the ones who took action in this incident."

Chen Zemin's response surprised everyone in the room. They hadn't considered that possibility, but it seemed plausible now that he mentioned it.

Some of them exchanged glances, while a few in the back of the room looked at Chen Zemin with admiration.

However, they quickly masked their reactions, not wanting to draw attention to themselves. They silently made a mental note to report this to their captain.

But they were not worried as they have been told about his personality and from what they have seen, it would not be odd for him to think in that direction.

Meanwhile, the others were focused on their master's theory. They couldn't deny it, as they knew very little about the Xu family.

Over the past year, no one had seen much of the family's strength except for the rapid expansion of the forces controlled by the wives of the family head, who had not shown his face to the public.

What they didn't know, however, was that Xu Qianghua had indeed shown his face and was part of all the inner circles formed by the top families to share information and exchange resources.

Xu Qianghua had used a special item he had obtained from a sign-in reward over several months to maintain his secrecy.

The system—or its clone—allowed him to stack weekly sign-ins to draw better-quality items that would be useful to him.

The item was called:

Phantom Veil Pendant (Universal)

Description: The Phantom Veil Pendant is a rare item that allows the wearer to create a false identity, complete with a fake background, history, and even a fabricated organization or group behind it.

It conceals the wearer's true identity, replacing it with a new one that appears completely authentic to anyone who investigates.

Effects:

Identity Hiding: Completely masks the wearer's true identity and gives them a new one, including a fake name, history, and cultivation level.

Fake Force: Creates a false group or organization that appears real to anyone who checks. Any investigation into the wearer's origins will lead to believable details about their new identity.

Spiritual Aura Masking: Hides the wearer's true cultivation level and shows a false power level that fits the new identity.

Fake Evidence: If anyone investigates further, they will find fabricated records, places, and individuals that support the false identity.

Limitations:

If the pendant is removed or broken, the real identity is revealed.

Most people will be fooled, but very strong or skilled cultivators might sense that something is off if they dig deep.

The item can only create up to seven fake identities.
