Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy novel Chapter 31

Chapter 31: Chapter 31 Hoeing Millet on a Blistering Midday

Wu Tian took out his phone from his pocket and glanced at the caller ID. It was an unfamiliar number.

Usually, a call from an unfamiliar number was either a scammer or someone in multi-level marketing. Just as Wu Tian was about to reject it, the little one in his arms suddenly called out, "It’s Mommy."

His wife was actually calling him? This was something he had not anticipated. He immediately answered the call.

"Is the baby with you?"

"Yes," Wu Tian replied.

So disappointing. All she cares about is the baby!

"So where are you right now?"

"At a friend’s house. What’s the matter?"

"With Liang Qingren?"

"Yes," Wu Tian did not lie. "I’m at her place with the baby. We might have dinner here. Is there a problem?"

On the other end, Qin Yuhan was clearly unhappy.

"Wang Ma, throw out the food you’ve cooked."

Wu Tian felt sullen. He said into the phone, "Do you know the saying, ’Hoeing weeds at noon’?"

"Yeah, Mommy! And do you know *Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival*? And ’the city in spring, overgrown with grass and trees’? Or *The Legend of the Immortal Sword*?"

What was all this? Wu Tian felt even more sullen. What on earth was the little guy talking about? Why can’t I understand a word?

BEEP. Wu Tian’s phone died and shut off.

This left Qin Yuhan sullen as well, her pretty face clouding over as she assumed Wu Tian had hung up on her.

That bastard, how dare he hang up on me? This is the first time anyone has ever hung up on me. Doesn’t everyone else jump at the chance to talk with me longer? Why is Wu Tian such an exception? He’s really asking for a beating!

At the same time, Qin Yuhan recalled the phrases the baby had mentioned, like the *Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival*. What were all those? How could my baby possibly know about them? It must have been Wu Tian who taught him. Is that man really trying to corrupt my precious child? That’s something I will never allow.

She also thought of another matter: Wu Tian was now at Liang Qingren’s place. If this keeps up, won’t things get out of hand? My anxiety isn’t because I like Wu Tian. It’s because, no matter how you look at it, he’s my fiancé in name. If people find out that my fiancé has fallen for someone else, what will I do? That must be why I feel so unsettled. That was the explanation she told herself.

DING-DONG, DING-DONG.

Suddenly, the villa’s distinctive doorbell rang.

Wang Ma went to open the door and brought in a handsome young man. With a smile on his lips, he said, "President, I have completed the plan you ordered. With this, there will definitely be no issues in our cooperation with the multinational corporation tomorrow."

「Meanwhile」

Wu Tian was having dinner with the baby at Liang Qingren’s house. Liang Qingren cooked the meal herself; the food was passable, but Wu Tian didn’t care about such things.

He continued to listen to Elder Madame Liang talk about the Martial Path.

External Strength, Inner Strength, and the Transformative Realm were all divided into four stages: Entry Level, Minor Achievement, Great Achievement, and Perfection.

Inner Strength corresponds to the Foundation Establishment Stage in the Immortal Emperor Realm, and the Transformative Realm corresponds to the Tongxuan Stage. Without a doubt, the system in the Immortal Emperor Realm is more complete.

She really couldn’t understand what her grandmother was thinking.

"You don’t understand the value of an Innate master," Elder Madame Liang said, her eyes narrowing as she looked at her granddaughter. Mm, she’s pretty enough. Seducing a man should be no problem.

"But our family doesn’t have a person like that," Liang Qingren said.

"No, there is a way for our family to have such a person," Elder Madame Liang said, shaking her head.

She turned to look at her beautiful granddaughter again. Her beauty greatly surpasses my own when I was young. Such stunning looks are one in a thousand.

Elder Madame Liang thought it over and decided it was best to be completely honest with her granddaughter.

"I want you to seduce him," she said, her face serious.

"What?" Liang Qingren was shocked. "But... but he already has a wife and child!"

"Indeed, he has a wife and child, but that doesn’t mean you’re without hope," Elder Madame Liang said. "You must understand that he is a master of the Transformative Realm at the peak of the Martial Path. For someone like him, having three wives and four concubines isn’t unusual. The ordinary laws of the city can no longer bind him."

"How is that possible? Aren’t you exaggerating?" Liang Qingren’s mouth dropped open, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief.

"Do you know of Iron Zhongtang?" Elder Madame Liang asked.

"Are you talking about the person you once said was the number one in Dragon Country?" Liang Qingren asked.

Elder Madame Liang nodded. "He once killed every single person in a village."

"What? Then shouldn’t he have been..."

"He wasn’t," Elder Madame Liang said, shaking her head. "The rules of the city are useless against some people; they can only bind the weak. There’s a saying that a prince who breaks the law should be punished like a commoner, but have you ever seen a prince truly punished like one?"
