Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy novel Chapter 253

Chapter 253: Chapter 254 Truly a Qilin Child

Everyone was drawn to Wu Tian’s disdainful laughter. On the high platform, Murong Ziqi ceased his sword dance.

"What do you mean by that?" Murong Guangfu could never quite look favorably upon his nephew, Wu Tian.

Too arrogant. A person like that, even if they find success, will only enjoy it for a moment. It won’t last. Only his son, Murong Ziqi, whose arrogance is backed by genuine talent, can be timeless.

"What I mean is," Wu Tian’s laughter subsided as he spoke calmly, "even if your son cultivates for another hundred years, he couldn’t defeat a single one of my fingers."

This statement caused the members of the Murong Family to shake their heads.

This time, even Murong Dawei did the same. He thought he knew all of Wu Tian’s secrets. As the Prime Minister’s heir, Wu Tian’s political power would one day certainly surpass Murong Ziqi’s. But his martial prowess? How could it possibly compare to Murong Ziqi’s?

Murong Yezi, Qin Yuhan, and the little one, however, thought differently from the others.

Murong Yezi hoped that the Murong Family wouldn’t provoke her son too much. Otherwise, there would be no need for anyone else to come and destroy them.

"Father, it seems Cousin Wu Tian doesn’t quite understand the realms of martial arts, nor does he grasp the true gap between us," Murong Ziqi said as he descended from the platform. He seemed to be in a good mood about something, so he wasn’t angered by Wu Tian’s words.

"It seems you were behind this," Wu Tian said, looking at Murong Ziqi, whose face was beaming. He must have done something the previous night to be in such high spirits.

"No, whatever happened at a subsidiary of Qin Corporation has nothing to do with me," Murong Ziqi quickly responded.

"I haven’t even said what happened, so how could you possibly know about it?" Wu Tian let out a cold laugh. "It’s barely past seven. The newspapers are probably still being printed, and the journalists are busy writing their articles. How is it that you already know?"

"..." Murong Ziqi was momentarily at a loss for words.

Did I just give myself away? Still, he wasn’t afraid. So what if Wu Tian knew? What could he possibly do? With the Sword Emperor’s help, he had already reached the Innate Realm. His strength was no less than Huang Xuantian’s in his prime, making him the rightful heir to Huang Xuantian’s position among the Seven Saints of Dragon Country.

"After the banquet, you will learn the consequences," Wu Tian said, his voice light.

Murong Ziqi sneered and replied in a low voice, "Good. I’d like to see what you can do to me, cousin!"

Although no one knew what had passed between Wu Tian and Murong Ziqi, the tension in the air was palpable.

Murong Guangfu immediately stepped forward. "Wu Tian, your mother hasn’t had a single proper birthday since she left the Murong Family. This time, we will host a grand birthday banquet for her and show you what a true high-society birthday party looks like."

Wu Tian simply shrugged, indicating he would wait and see what tricks the Murong Family had up their sleeves.

The atmosphere subsequently calmed down. Wu Tian held the little girl, feeding her slices of apple and pear, but she wanted meat. The child pleaded with her beautiful eyes for a long time, but Wu Tian just kept giving her fruit.

"Hmph!" The little girl wriggled in his arms unhappily. "Daddy, don’t you love me anymore? Did you find another little girl?"

The statement hit like a thunderous roar. Qin Yuhan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Wu Tian sighed. "You’re the only one."

"Then to prove that I’m your only little princess, give me meat," the child stated her true desire.

Wu Tian was frustrated. Aren’t fruits good? How does such a young child already know that meat tastes better than fruit? I’m only forbidding you from eating meat for your own good. When girls grow up, they all cry about needing to lose weight. For the sake of your future beautiful figure, I’ll take care of all this meat myself! Of course, given Wu Tian’s personality, he would only think these words, never say them aloud.
