With a mix of coercion and kindness, Yin Fengxue was subdued. What he didn’t know, however, was that this new boss of his was also his son’s boss!
"Boss, please follow me." Yin Fengxue’s Sun God personally led the way, bringing Wu Tian to a cave at the bottom of the river. "This is the Three Treasures Fruit," the Sun God explained as Wu Tian nodded.
The Three Talents are heaven, earth, and man. The Three Treasures are water, fire, and wind. This fruit was the convergence of these three energies, making it exceptionally precious. For Immortal Seekers, it was a treasure beyond compare. First, it contained a vast amount of Spiritual Energy. Second, as earth has its three treasures of water, fire, and wind, consuming the fruit could bestow upon someone the Three Spiritual Roots of water, fire, and wind. It might even awaken the legendary great Spirit Root of the earth!
It was precisely because of the fruit’s value that the masters of the two Demon Palaces, who had stumbled upon it while their Sun Gods were out exploring, had come to blows over it.
"Good, I’ll take it." Wu Tian accepted the fruit and stored it inside his Nine Dragon Ring.
The Three Treasures Fruit was caked in the filthy river water. Of course, for the sake of their cultivation and the chance to acquire the great Spirit Root of the earth, an Immortal Seeker would be willing to eat filth, so what was consuming this fruit in comparison? Wu Tian, however, had other methods. Unlike other Immortal Seekers who would swallow it whole, he simply absorbed its Spiritual Energy directly.
"Boss, how did you end up in the One and Three-Fifths Underground River?" Yin Fengxue’s Sun God inquired.
Wu Tian explained that he was heading to the Eastern Taizhong Palace.
"What a coincidence! Such a coincidence!" the Sun God exclaimed. "I’m also taking my newly-found son to the Eastern Taizhong Palace! Boss, let’s meet up there!"
Wu Tian nodded, and Yin Fengxue’s Sun God swiftly returned to its body.
Wu Tian then started toward the surface, preparing to leave the Underground River. Along the way, the river creatures were so terrified they didn’t dare move. The terrifying, imposing aura of Wu Tian’s Blood Mist sent all nearby creatures scattering in panic, some even losing control of their bladders and bowels.

At that moment, on the surface of the Underground River, Qin Yuhan and the others on the underground shark realized Wu Tian still hadn’t returned.
"What’s taking him so long? He didn’t drink that much water, did he?" Qin Yuhan wondered. She directed the underground shark toward the large rock where he had been, but there was no sign of him.
"Where is he?" A worried, frightened look appeared on Qin Yuhan’s beautiful face; for a moment, she was at a complete loss and had no idea what to do.
"Dad probably saw something pretty and ran off to look at it," the little girl said, trusting her intuition.
"Something pretty? Like what?" Qin Yuhan asked.
"Like a beautiful woman, or maybe..." The little girl trailed off, but Qin Yuhan didn’t hear the rest. The words "beautiful woman" alone were enough to make her frown.
Just then, Wu Tian returned. Hearing his daughter’s words, he gave a wry smile and walked over. "Come on, little one. Don’t tease your mother."
"Oh!" Realizing she’d been found out, the little girl gave a sheepish giggle and playfully stuck out her tongue.
Seeing Wu Tian, Qin Yuhan’s face lit up with joy. She rushed forward and threw her arms around him. "Where did you go? Do you know I was thinking about you? Do you know how worried I was?" It was no small thing for the icy and beautiful CEO to say such words, making it clear just how panicked she had been. Feeling her concern and love, Wu Tian hugged her back tightly.
The little girl watched this scene and rolled her eyes. Could you two be any more obvious?
