Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy novel Chapter 684

Chapter 684: Chapter 687 I Want You to Fail as a Human [First Update]

"A true powerhouse gets angry when rejected once, Qin Yuhan," Crown Prince Tianlong said, his gaze cold and a menacing light flickering in his eyes. "Reject them a second time, and they kill."

"This prince will stay here. I will give you one day to consider my offer."

"If you still refuse after one day... this prince is merciful and never kills. However, I can’t guarantee what my men might do to some innocent commoners."

"Take this day to think it over carefully."

Having said that, Crown Prince Tianlong turned and left, leaving Qin Yuhan rooted to the spot, biting her lip in silent abhorrence.

Qin Yuhan left the Chief Minister’s residence with a terrible expression. She was no longer in the mood to visit any jade shop and instead trudged with heavy steps toward the Royal Palace.

Just as she reached her loft in the palace courtyard, a small figure leaped out and burrowed straight into her arms. Who else could it be but the little one?

"Mommy, sleep with me tonight," the little one said brightly. "It’s been so long since I’ve slept while hugging Mommy. I love how soft it feels. It’s the best."

"Baby..." Qin Yuhan looked up, her smile forced. "Why did you suddenly think to sleep with Mommy today?"

The little one pondered for a moment before saying, "Because my gut tells me you’re unhappy, Mommy."

Qin Yuhan froze for a second, then forced another smile. "Not at all."

"I don’t believe you," the little one said, hopping out of Qin Yuhan’s arms and scampering away, their tiny legs moving like the Wheels of Wind and Fire.

Qin Yuhan sat in her room, as silent and still as a stone. A short while later, the little one returned, pulling Wu Tian along.

"Baby says you’re unhappy? What’s wrong?" Wu Tian asked with concern the moment he arrived.

"Nothing," Qin Yuhan replied flatly.

"Really?" Wu Tian looked her up and down. "There’s a trace of dark energy between your brows. It seems like you’ve run into some trouble."

"When I say it’s nothing, it’s nothing," Qin Yuhan stated firmly. "Don’t worry about it."

A Four-Star Empire! Crown Prince Tianlong! What’s more, his trump cards seem to surpass even those of a Four-Star Empire. I can’t let Wu Tian get involved!

"Alright, if you say it’s nothing, then it’s nothing," Wu Tian said with a smile.

But the matter was not going to end so simply. Wu Tian was just playing along.

"Since you’re fine, I’ll take my leave."

With that, Wu Tian turned and left.

In the room, Qin Yuhan sat silently, her heart a mess of conflict. She was relieved she had successfully deceived Wu Tian. But at the same time, she was sad. Does he really care so little about me? Was it that easy to trick him into leaving?

「A day passed in a flash.」

In the pre-dawn darkness, Qin Yuhan slipped out of the Royal Palace, unnoticed. She didn’t realize that she was being followed by Wu Tian and the little one. Wu Tian had intended to come alone, but the little one had stayed up all night, insisting on joining him. He’d had no choice but to agree. Still, the little one’s filial devotion was quite precious.

Finally, Wu Tian, carrying the little one, followed Qin Yuhan to the Chief Minister’s residence.

Someone dares to covet my wife? It doesn’t matter who he is. I will make him less than human.

"You..." Crown Prince Tianlong was enraged. A man like him? What kind of man was he? He couldn’t see a single thing wrong with himself. In terms of looks, he could arrange clandestine nightly meetings with countless young ladies, and even married women. In terms of background, countless women shamelessly threw themselves at him, desperate for any connection. How was a man like him not good enough? Crown Prince Tianlong truly couldn’t comprehend it.

"Well said," Wu Tian declared, arriving with the little one in his arms.

The little one, nestled in Wu Tian’s embrace, clapped their hands and added, "Mommy, I’m so proud of you."

Crown Prince Tianlong hadn’t expected Wu Tian to show up. But he wasn’t worried. He clapped his hands as well, and in an instant, black-clad figures swarmed the area, ready to ensure Wu Tian would never leave.

Sizing Wu Tian up, Crown Prince Tianlong had to admit the man’s handsome features were not inferior to his own. However, there was a difference. Wu Tian’s was a genuine, sunny attractiveness, while his own, upon closer inspection, was a more effeminate kind of beauty.

Crown Prince Tianlong stepped forward and smiled. "I must admit, you’re quite impressive. Let’s introduce ourselves properly. I am Tianlong, Crown Prince of Qian Zhong, a Four-Star Country."

"I have no interest in knowing you," Wu Tian said mercilessly. "Are you going to kill yourself, or should I beat you to death? Or... I could make you less than human."

"You have a strange sense of humor." Crown Prince Tianlong’s mouth twitched, surprised by the sharpness of Wu Tian’s words. He still managed a smile. "Since you’ve given me a few choices, this prince shall offer you a few as well."

"First, divorce your wife."

"Second, Wu Tian, you will become my dog."

"Third... if I can’t have her, no one can. Wu Tian, you will kill Qin Yuhan yourself."

Qin Yuhan stared coldly at Crown Prince Tianlong, thinking he was not just brutal, but a complete psychopath.

Wu Tian looked at Crown Prince Tianlong with equal coldness. "It seems a man like you truly deserves to die."
