Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy novel Chapter 290

Chapter 290: Chapter 292: How Can One Have It All in the World (3/7)

The reporters were shocked, yet they still took photos. They believed that if this matter were publicized, it would surely stun the whole nation into disbelief.

A child becoming the president of the Chinese Medicine Association? This child was far younger than Gan Luo had ever been.

Wu Tian was aware of the reporters’ presence through his Spiritual Sense, but he didn’t mind them promoting the little guy, or even himself. He wanted everyone in the South to know that he was the king.

Ignoring everyone’s astonishment, Wu Tian stared directly at Wu Fa and Wang Cai. "Come with me," he said.

Family affairs?

Xiao Tianzan and the others thought it best not to intrude, so they stayed behind to manage the situation. Murong Yezi, Qin Yuhan, the little one, Wu Fa, and Wang Cai all followed Wu Tian.

They soon arrived at the Heavenly River area, next to the Great River of Pearls. It was daytime, and the place was deserted. In the evening, many people would gather here to dance, skateboard, sell barbecue, sing, and more. This was something only the residents of Yang City’s Heavenly River district knew.

"Now, let’s sort out some family matters," Wu Tian said. His voice was as ethereal as a cloud and as amiable as the wind, yet his words weighed heavily on the hearts of Murong Yezi, Wu Fa, and Wang Cai.

"So, how do you wish to settle this?" Wu Fa asked. This matter had troubled him for many years, and he often berated himself for what he had done.

But how can one have it all in life?

If he hadn’t left the pregnant Murong Yezi back then, Ghost Valley would have eventually found him. At that point, neither Murong Yezi nor the child in her womb could have been spared. And returning to Ghost Valley meant he could never walk away unscathed.

How can one have it all, to be true to Ghost Valley and true to one’s beloved?

"No one can hear or see us here. Say whatever you want, speak freely," Wu Tian said, looking at the conflicted Wu Fa and shaking his head. He then pointed a finger into the Void.

Instantly, a cloud of Blood Mist billowed out and enveloped the area, shrouding Wu Tian and the others within. The entire region was blanketed by the Blood Mist. No one dared to approach; to do so was a path to certain death.

For example, one man—a member of Ghost Valley’s Horizontal Sect and a guardian at Wu Dao’s side—wanted to find out what they were doing inside. Gritting his teeth, he risked entering the Blood Mist and was immediately turned to ash, leaving behind nothing but a wretched scream.

Wu Tian’s methods were, as always, astonishingly beyond the means of the so-called Mundane World.

Wu Fa sighed. This iron-willed man now exuded an air of desolation. "I’m tired," he said, "truly tired."

"Yezi, all these years, I’ve been thinking of you, missing you, and worrying about you and our child. I worried that you, a mother alone with her child, were not living well. Do you believe me?"

Before Murong Yezi could answer, Wu Fa gave a bitter chuckle. "Actually, it doesn’t matter if you don’t believe me. Women always think men’s words are false, that only actions are true. But there’s another side to it that you women don’t know. I wanted to act, I really did, but I didn’t have the freedom to..."

This stoic man’s eyes welled with hot tears, which streamed down his cheeks, landing on the ground with audible sounds.

DRIP. DRIP.

If he didn’t repay it, could he even call himself human?
