Genius Daddy in the City

The sudden voice shocked Ye Chen.

He followed the voice and realized that the water lily before him was shaking slightly, “Is that you talking?”

“B-Bad guy, of course it’s me!”

A childish voice that sounded like that of a five-year-old girl sounded again. The water lily started to tremble more and more, “Bad guy, can you not kill them…”

“Interesting!”

Ye Chen raised his brows and looked at the water lily carefully. He did not expect it to be able to speak. After all, Demonic Beasts could not speak unless they were at Foundation Building. To turn into a human, they would need to be at Golden Core.

“Why can’t I kill them?”

Ye Chen said with great interest, “Since you can speak, you must have some intelligence. Then, you should know that these two Demonic Beasts have been waiting for the day you mature to eat you.”

“I know!”

The water lily said innocently, “But I’ve been here for 300 years, and they’re usually the ones who talk to me. If you kill them, I’ll be bored, upset, and die.”

Ye Chen did not know whether to laugh or cry, “How dare you threaten me? Do you know that you can’t even protect yourself?”

“I know that too!”

The water lily’s timid voice sounded again, “Last time, a big bad guy like you discovered me, so I knew I can’t protect myself.”

Ye Chen asked, “Was he a Formation Master?”

“That’s right. He was a Formation Master, an old man. He’s much more disgusting than you. The moment I saw him, he started dancing and grinning. However, we ignored him.”

At this point, the water lily said in an incomparably immature manner, “Bad guy, as long as you don’t kill them, I will give you the fruit, is that okay?”

“Sure, but you have to promise me one thing!”

Ye Chen’s eyes flickered as he said, “After you mature, not only will you give me the fruit, but your real body will also follow me. You must know that you’ve been exposed. You know what will happen if you continue to stay here.”

“Like hell I believe you! You’re just as bad as that old man. Both of you want me!”

Ye Chen was speechless when he heard that, “I only want the Earth Immortal Fruit. The reason why I want your body is because you’re the root of the earth. Staying here is like a pearl covered in dust. If you leave with me, you might be able to break free from the shackles of your body and turn into a human one day.

“Of course. If you disagree, then I’ll kill these two beasts right now and wait for the day you mature. By then, you won’t have a choice!”

Ye Chen looked at the two giant loaches after saying that. Extreme killing intent exploded in his eyes.

Seeing that he was about to turn hostile, the water lily trembled violently and immediately let go, “Don’t, I’ll promise you that!”

“Alright!”

Ye Chen then retracted his killing intent and said to the giant loaches expressionlessly, “The same goes for you guys. Hand over your soul blood.”

The two giant loaches hesitated for a while. In the end, they opened their mouths and spat. Two streaks of red blood that looked like earthworms landed in Ye Chen’s hands.

Ye Chen said while standing with his hands behind his back, “From now on, your lives are in my hands. As long as you’re loyal to me, you don’t have to worry about your safety. I’ll guide you to achieve Foundation Building in the future.”

The two giant loaches growled in agreement.

“Great. From now on, you’re responsible for guarding the Earth Immortal Fruit. You’re not allowed to steal or expose yourselves. I’ll return in three days!”

After arranging everything, Ye Chen left the Spirit Fog Island quietly. The venerable stage powerhouse who was in charge of guarding the island did not notice him at all.

…

As soon as he returned to the entrance of the King Mu Fort, he realized that the entire fort was brightly lit, as if a great enemy was invading.

An Illuminating Pulse martial artist guarding the door was stunned when he saw Ye Chen. He then rushed into the fort in a hurry and said as he ran, “Fort Master, young mistress, that piece of trash is back. No, it’s Young Master!”

In an instant, the entire King Mu Fort was in chaos.

Soon, Mu Caiwei walked out quickly with her people. She heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Ye Chen.

“Disperse!”

She did not say anything else. She waved her hand and signaled for all the warriors in the fort to leave.

On the other hand, Wang Chengliang, who was in charge of guarding the King Mu Fort, jumped out. He pointed at Ye Chen’s nose and scolded, “Useless thing, where did you go? Do you know…”

“Shut up!”

Before Ye Chen could speak, Mu Caiwei shouted coldly, “Wang Chengliang, remember this. I’m Mr. Shi’s fiance now, and he’s also the future son-in-law of King Mu. If I hear that you’re being disrespectful to him again, you’ll bear the consequences!”

Wang Chengliang’s face was extremely flushed. He could only look at Ye Chen with resentment. Never would he have thought that Mu Caiwei would reprimand him for Ye Chen.

“Come with me!”

Mu Caiwei did not care about Wang Chengliang’s expression. She left after taking a good look at Ye Chen.

…

In Mu Caiwei’s room, she looked at Ye Chen in shock, “Where did you go?”

Half an hour ago, the King Mu Fort discovered that Ye Chen was missing. The entire fort was in an uproar. Countless people were looking for Ye Chen everywhere.

Countless thoughts flashed through Mu Caiwei’s mind at that time. She thought that Ye Chen had run away or that some enemy forces like the City Governor’s Mansion had captured him.

Ye Chen smiled lightly, “I was bored, so I went out for a walk!”

“The current situation is unclear, and tomorrow is the day of our wedding, so it’s best that you don’t walk around. If you’re really bored, I can get Jiu’er to show you around the King Mu Fort.”

Mu Caiwei did not ask further. She was smart enough to know that Ye Chen had probably gone to the Spirit Fog Island. However, from her perspective, Ye Chen had not entered the Spirit Fog Island at all.

After all, the City Governor’s Mansion’s commander, Situ Lei, was guarding the Spirit Fog Island, and he was a venerable stage cultivator.

Ye Chen suddenly said, “Right, I want to ask you a question!”

After saying that, he took out the Legends of Mountains and Seas that he found on the first floor of the library and pretended to ask curiously, “Who wrote this book?”

Mu Caiwei’s pretty face changed slightly, but she quickly hid it and asked, “Why are you asking this?”

Ye Chen watched her reaction and said while smiling, “No, I think the content in this book is too ridiculous. However, it’s quite interesting, so I want to know who wrote it.”

“This is a forbidden book. Don’t read it anymore. Otherwise, it will bring disaster to you and even our King Mu Fort!”

As Mu Caiwei spoke, she took the book and destroyed it before Ye Chen.
