Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy novel Chapter 675

Chapter 675: Chapter 678: Let’s See Who Kills Whom First [Second Release]

"This..." Yuwen was stunned. He couldn’t believe Wu Tian’s words were so sharp, demanding his silence from the very start. Beside him, it wasn’t just the civil officers; even the military officers frowned slightly. If Si’er hadn’t been watching them, these people would have already stepped forward to berate Wu Tian. After all, Yuwen’s influence was widespread throughout the Xiuyuan Realm. Some of his students had become civil officers, others military officers, and even some of their students had achieved such ranks. His network of connections was vast and complex.

Yuwen recovered his wits and smiled indifferently. He considered Wu Tian a mere greenhorn and said earnestly, "My young friend, I appreciate straight-talkers like you. Now, I have two matters to discuss with you."

"First, regarding the champion for the upcoming battle, I have decided it will be Great General Wu Wei." His words were meant to keep Wu Tian off the field, letting Great General Wu Wei take all the glory.

Hearing this, Si’er was displeased; after all, she was the Queen. From the ranks of the military officers, a young man stepped forward. This was Great General Wu Wei. His father had been one of Yuwen’s students, and while he himself had few accomplishments, he had been promoted through the influence of his elders. Now, Yuwen was offering him this great honor. How could he not be pleased? Even before anything was settled, he was already bowing with his hands clasped, saying to Yuwen, "Thank you, Grandteacher, for your patronage."

Yuwen nodded slightly. With his disciples spread far and wide, he dared to act this way. He believed that even if Si’er resented him, she wouldn’t dare do anything to him!

Yuwen then turned to Wu Tian and said, "My young friend, the second matter is this: I request that you divorce your wife."

Qin Yuhan’s expression turned frosty.

Wu Tian suddenly spoke up. "Was it you who sent Yuhan’s portrait to that so-called Crown Prince?"

Yuwen nodded. Si’er would find out sooner or later, so there was nothing to hide. I’ve spent enough time in the Three Stars Star Domain and found it dull. It’s time to see the Four Stars Star Domain. Qin Yuhan is the very gift I plan to offer the Crown Prince as a token for our first meeting.

"Divorce your wife, and this Supreme Treasure will be yours." Yuwen smiled and produced a Supreme Treasure—a jade slab fifty centimeters long and over ten centimeters wide. He shook it gently, and Spiritual Power fluctuated within.

"You must know, this is a superior-grade Profound Level item," Yuwen stated with an air of pride. He had investigated Wu Tian. Since Wu Tian had been willing to give the Jade Pure Kunlun Fan to Si’er, Yuwen was certain that Wu Tian also had Supreme Treasures of his own. He must be a Supreme Treasure enthusiast. What grade is the Jade Pure Kunlun Fan? I don’t know, but it can’t possibly be better than my jade slab. This slab will be a fatal temptation for him.

"So, what do you say?" Yuwen smiled. "My young friend, this is the finest piece in my collection. It can be yours, as long as you divorce your wife." Yuwen cherished this jade slab dearly, but for the sake of advancing his career, he was putting it all on the line.

Hearing his words, however, Wu Tian couldn’t help but laugh. "You want to use this jade slab to buy me off and make me divorce my wife?"

"Yes," Yuwen nodded. "You might not know who it is that fancies her, do you? That’s the Crown Prince of Tianlong from the Four Stars Star Domain. Moreover, the Crown Prince has powerful figures supporting him. You can’t afford to offend them. Why not just divorce her? I’ll put in a good word for you with the Crown Prince and have him award you several young, beautiful singers. How about that? It’s a good deal, trading one for many."

Yuwen had now fully revealed his intentions. "Besides, you’ll get my jade slab. In the future, whether you’re in the Three Stars Star Domain or the Four Stars’ Artifact Domain, I guarantee you can travel unhindered."

They helped Yuwen up. His old eyes bored into Wu Tian as he ground his now-toothless gums. His speech was slurred, but he managed to ask, "Wha’ do you mean by this?" What does he mean by this? Why did he hit me for no reason? That’s what Yuwen wanted to ask.
