Name: The Ultimate Son-in-Law Strikes Back
Author: Blood-Colored Splendor

Synopsis

Li Haotian is a top student at Tianhai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, with excellent grades and a bright future.

But when his adoptive mother suddenly falls gravely ill, the 300,000 yuan surgery bill crushes his impoverished family. With no way out, he accepts the terms offered by the Lin family, a third-rate clan in Tianhai: he will marry into the family in exchange for a chance to save his adoptive mother.

The Lin family’s eldest daughter, Lin Miaoxue, is stunningly beautiful and has countless admirers. Among them is Zhou Hao, the young master of the second-rate Zhou family, who is determined to have her. Arrogant and notorious for his misconduct, he is exactly the kind of man the Lin family wants to keep their daughter away from. In a hurry, they decide to find her a husband, choosing Li Haotian, who desperately needs the money.

On their wedding night, Lin Miaoxue gives him a cold reception and says outright that their marriage is only a transaction. His mother-in-law, Wang Shufang, is spiteful and sharp-tongued, often resorting to insults and beatings. His father-in-law, Lin Tianming, doesn’t make things difficult for him, but has never once looked him in the eye. Even the Lin family’s servants dare to sneer at him. Li Haotian swallows his anger and lives under everyone’s contempt, becoming Tianhai City’s laughingstock, a man living off his wife.

When Zhou Hao learns that Lin Miaoxue is married, he flies into a rage. He has Li Haotian beaten until he is gravely injured, then leaves him for dead in the wilderness. His blood seeps into the soil, accidentally awakening a slumbering immortal will that has lain beneath the earth for a thousand years: the remnant soul of the Heavenly Doctor Immortal Emperor.

“Young one, fate has brought us together. I’ll pass on the Heavenly Doctor Canon and grant you the Heart of the Heavenly Doctor. May you heal the world and remain true to the way of medicine.”

Golden light pours into his body, and his grievous wounds heal. The Heavenly Doctor Canon in his sea of consciousness contains everything: cultivation techniques, peerless medical arts, Daoist techniques and formations, and the secrets of feng shui. It is vast and profound. From then on, Li Haotian embarks on the path of cultivation, a live-in son-in-law with astonishing abilities hidden beneath the surface.

When the useless son-in-law everyone once trampled on begins to reveal his edge, what price will those who looked down on him have to pay?
