Genius Daddy in the City

Upon hearing the footsteps, Gu Yingying instinctively turned around and shouted, “Didn’t I tell you not to let anyone in?!”

The moment she finished speaking, she froze.

​ 

She was not the only one. Even Old Master Gu and Gu Shaokun, who had turned around after hearing the noise, were shocked.

“M-Mr. Ye!”

When he saw who it was, Gu Shaokun felt his scalp go numb and almost fainted.

“Ms. Gu sure is arrogant!”

Ye Chen ignored everyone’s gaze and sat on the couch slowly. He poured himself a cup of tea and said after tasting it carefully, “Even I can’t enter your house now.”

“Mr. Ye, I didn’t mean that…” Gu Yingying’s pretty face changed. She wanted to explain herself.

“Say no more!”

Ye Chen put down the teacup heavily and interrupted her. He lifted his head and looked at Old Master Gu, “Old master, someone is right. I’ve always respected you!

“Because you’re China’s hero. Without someone like you, China wouldn’t be what it is today!”

Hearing this, Old Master Gu’s body shook slightly.

“I will continue to respect you, but today is the last time I will come to your Gu residence. From now on, I will have nothing to do with the Gu family.

“That’s all I have to say. Take care!”

Ye Chen took a big step out after saying that. He did not even turn his head back. Throughout the entire process, he had never looked at Gu Shaokun.

“Mr. Ye let me go! He let me go!” Gu Shaokun could not help but cry in joy.

On the other hand, Gu Yingying looked desperate.

“No, no…”

Old Master Gu closed his eyes bitterly and opened his mouth with difficulty. The old man’s hands that were placed on the wheelchair were shaking non-stop.

Old Master waved at Gu Shaokun, “Come here.”

The latter knelt in front of him and held his hand, “Grandpa, I know my mistake. I will definitely change…”

“Your parents died early!”

The old master reached out a hand and caressed his face. He sighed and smiled, “You’ve been with me since you were eight months old. I was the one who raised you. It’s all my fault for indulging you and causing you to commit such a terrible crime today.”

“Grandpa…” Gu Yingying begged.

“Everyone makes mistakes in their life!”

The old man muttered to himself, “Some mistakes can be corrected, but some mistakes have to be paid a price. This is the bottom line and the basis of justice.”

Gu Shaokun’s expression changed slightly. He seemed to have realized something and struggled to escape. However, he realized that the old master’s hand was holding him down.

“Don’t worry, go ahead. As for Ping’er, I will educate him well. In the future, I will get him to join the army to pay your debt!”

With that, the old master gently pressed his hand on the former’s head.

Thump…

A cold corpse fell heavily to the ground.

That day, the wealthy Gu family of Tiannan announced their disbandment. All of their wealth was handed over to the national treasury. Old Master Gu, who was only in his seventies, ignored the advice of his former subordinates and returned to the front line of the coastal county.

A real man should defend his country to the death!

This was his debt to the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who had died in battle because of Gu Shaokun, as well as a punishment for himself!

…

That afternoon in Fengdu’s North County of Bayu, an armed helicopter slowly landed less than five kilometers away from Fengdu’s Ghost City. Someone immediately went forward to welcome it.

After Ye Chen walked out of the helicopter, a middle-aged man stepped forward and said, “General Wen Zhen greets Heavenly King Ye!”

“How’s Fengdu now?”

After Ye Chen landed on the ground, he lifted his eyes to look into the distance. What he saw was black fog. It looked like a terrifying beast standing there.

“Around two in the afternoon, a huge fog appeared in Fengdu, and tourists disappeared. In less than three hours, the fog had already covered a radius of ten kilometers!”

Wen Zhen said quickly.

Ye Chen frowned, “Are there any casualties?”

“Yes!”

Wen Zhen said with lingering fear, “A few of our soldiers rushed into the fog to search for the tourists, but they never returned. Some of them were instantly swallowed by the fog.”

“Who are they?” The Patriarch of Hell pointed at the crowd at the edge of the fog.

Wen Zhen said, “They are all mutants and cultivators. We really couldn’t stop them and could only let them go.”

“You guys stay where you are and wait for orders from us. We’ll investigate!”

After saying that, Ye Chen led the patriarch and the rest straight to the fog.

Along the way, they saw many groups of mutants and people from the cultivation world. Among them, there was no lack of supreme big shots.

The Patriarch of Hell said thoughtfully, “Fellow Ye, why do you think there’s a sudden change in Fengdu? Could it be that it’s really like the legends in China? Is this the place that leads to the land of the dead?”

Although he was not from Earth, he had been on Earth for quite some time, so he naturally knew a lot about that.

“Probably not!”

Ye Chen shook his head lightly, “If there’s hell or something like that, wouldn’t there be heaven and the Western Paradise as well?”

“That’s true!”

The patriarch gave a startled smile, “Earth is just a small dimension after all. It seems that there are no immortals in the Spirit Realm.”

At that moment, an old man with a powerful aura looked around and said, “Guys, have any of you entered the fog to investigate?”

“I’ve already gone in quite a few times!”

A mutant in silver armor could not help but comment, “However, no one has ever come out before. Furthermore, I noticed that this fog is very strange. It seems to be able to swallow the flesh and blood of living humans.”

“Not only that!”

Another person said with fear, “The deeper we go into the fog, the stranger it gets. I once saw a level-9 mutant turn into a skeleton less than 30 meters into the fog.”

The crowd fell into an uproar.

Those who had just arrived and were about to go in to investigate had goosebumps on their bodies. They immediately dismissed that thought.

Even a level-9 mutant could not withstand the fog!

They would die if they went in!

Ye Chen suddenly stopped when he was less than three meters away from the fog. There was a flash in his eyes when he looked at the fog.

It was because he realized that the black fog before him was similar to the black fog outside the ghost ship.

Thinking to this point, he could not help but frown, “Strange, why would the fog outside the ghost ship appear here?”

At that moment, there was a commotion behind the crowd. There was the sound of horses’ hooves.

Ye Chen turned around.

A group of carriages flew over from afar. It was a carriage pulled by nine warhorses, and on the carriage sat a man wearing a black dragon robe.

The man’s face was imposing without being angry. He looked like an ancient emperor who was out on a patrol, and around his carriage were four armored men with monstrous murderous auras guarding him.

“It’s him!”

Ye Chen’s gaze froze.
