Genius Daddy in the City - Chapter 768
Chapter 768: Young Master, the Young Mistress Awaits!
With the departure of the various forces, it meant that this year’s martial gathering that was held once every three years in the entire Tianfeng sea area had finally come to an end.
However, as the people left, the news that Ye Chen, the useless son-in-law of the King Mu Fort, killed the previous martial gathering’s champion Situ Yu overbearingly spread throughout the entire Tianfeng sea area like waves.
“What? The son-in-law of the King Mu Fort isn’t trash? He’s actually a grade-2 Mystic Master?”
“Killing the young master of the Vile Valley and killing Situ Yu with one punch. Impressive, impressive. The King Mu Fort got themselves a treasure this time!”
“…”
Shi Qianhan’s name resounded across the entire Tianfeng sea area. Countless forces were flabbergasted after learning about the martial gathering.
In the King Mu Fort, Jiu’er kept chattering around Ye Chen, “Young master, you’re a famous person in Tianfeng City now!
“Right now, there are many well-bred young ladies outside the King Mu Fort who want to see you. If not for the fort master’s order to stop them, the door would have been broken…”
She stole a glance at Ye Chen and said shyly, “There are a few maidservants in the fort who asked me secretly if you need a bed-warming maid…”
Ye Chen chuckled softly upon hearing that. He did not seem to care at all. Compared to fame, he valued the Earth Immortal Fruit more.
If he was not mistaken, the Earth Immortal Fruit would ripen by tonight at the latest!
Meanwhile, inside Grand Elder Mu Sansi’s room, the current atmosphere was incomparably cold and deathly still.
Mu Xuanzhen looked at Mu Sansi with a ferocious expression, and his eyes were filled with fierce killing intent, “Father, I must kill that Shi guy!”
Ever since the father and son duo left the Spirit Fog Island in a hurry and returned to the King Mu Fort, they heard everyone praising Ye Chen.
The limelight completely overshadowed him, the son of the Grand Elder. He was reputed to be the most talented person in the younger generation of the King Mu Fort.
How could he not go mad with jealousy?!
“Bastard, complaining is all you do!”
The Grand Elder, Mu Sansi, shouted, “We couldn’t even touch that little bastard with the surname Shi before. Now that he has become a great contributor to the King Mu Fort, how can we do anything? Do you think that King Mu and Mu Caiwei are blind?”
Mu Xuanzhen’s expression changed as he gnashed his teeth and said, “Do you mean we’ll just watch that brat continue being complacent?”
“Complacent?”
Mu Sansi immediately revealed a cold smirk, “There’s a saying that goes ‘The tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind’. This brat killed the young master of the Vile Valley and Tianfeng City’s City Governor Situ Yun’s son. The resentment of having their sons killed is absolutely irreconcilable. Let me ask you, how could these two forces let him off?!”
Mu Xuanzhen was delighted, “Father, what do you mean?”
“I’ll make a trip to the City Governor’s Mansion tonight!”
Mu Sansi stood up and walked to the window, his expression incomparably sinister, “All these years, I’ve been patiently laying out my plans. It’s time for me to reveal my cards to that old fox, King Mu!”
…
Night fell, inside the main study of King Mu Fort, King Mu looked at Ye Chen who was standing before him with a complicated expression. A few seconds later, his lips moved slightly as he said, “If I’m not mistaken, you haven’t lost your cultivation base, right?”
At first, he thought this young man before him had his cultivation base crippled, so he reluctantly agreed to take him in as his son-in-law. It was all for the sake of a useless person who was not a threat.
However, after Ye Chen killed everything on Spirit Fog Island and won the martial gathering, he suddenly had no idea how to face Ye Chen anymore!
He was grateful!
After all, without Ye Chen, the King Mu Fort would never be able to take back the Spirit Fog Island!
However, there was even more fear because this young man had lied to everyone in the King Mu Fort, as well as everyone in the world!
Since he had such strength, why did he have to suffer the disdain of others to marry into the King Mu Fort? If he did not have ulterior motives, what else could it be?
Following his words, a series of hurried footsteps could be heard outside the study. There were shadows on the paper windows, and soon, the entire study was surrounded!
They were all warriors from the King Mu Fort!
In an instant, murderous intent filled the air, and the atmosphere was chilly!
Facing such a scene, Ye Chen smiled lightly, “Does it matter whether I’ve lost my cultivation base?”
“Isn’t it important?”
King Mu narrowed his eyes and glared at him, “Tell me, why did you hide your strength and marry into my King Mu Fort? Are you after my fort’s power or Caiwei’s beauty? As long as you tell me the truth, I can spare your life for Caiwei’s sake!”
“You want to kick me to the curb after I’ve outlived my usefulness?”
Ye Chen’s expression remained the same. Instead, he sat down slowly and said, “That’s right. There’s a reason why I married into your King Mu Fort. However, I’m not doing it for the fort’s power or Mu Caiwei’s beauty!
“It’s because of this!”
After saying that, he slowly placed a map in front of King Mu, “The item on the map is called the Earth Immortal Fruit. It’s very useful to me, and the Earth Immortal Fruit is above the Spirit Fog Island. That’s why I’m helping your King Mu Fort to obtain the management rights of the Spirit Fog Island.”
“Earth Immortal Fruit?”
King Mu took the map and examined it closely. His expression kept changing, “What’s the use of this?”
“You don’t need to know that!”
Ye Chen said with a faint smile, “That’s all I have to say. If you still think that I have other intentions for the King Mu Fort, you can order people outside to charge in!”
Meeting his gaze, King Mu’s eyes flickered several times. Finally, he sighed softly and said, “All of you retreat!”
The warriors outside retreated.
He turned around slowly and waved at Ye Chen with his back facing him, “Go. Caiwei is waiting for you!”
Ye Chen stood up and walked out of the study.
“Thank you very much for your help this time. When my King Mu Fort takes over the Spirit Fog Island tomorrow, you can choose anything on the island!”
A complicated voice slowly came.
Ye Chen chuckled and walked out of the study. He saw a maidservant waiting outside, “Young master, the young mistress waits!”
“Lead the way!”
He nodded slightly before following the maidservant to Mu Caiwei’s residence. The maidservant silently led the guards outside and left.
A cold voice came from inside the room.
“Young Master Shi, please come in!”
Creak!
Ye Chen pushed the door of the room open casually. However, there were no lights in the room at all. Instead, the moonlight seeped in through the crack of the door.
Under the hazy moonlight, a graceful figure was currently seated beside a mahogany table.
At that moment, a candle inside the room lit up.
Ye Chen was slightly stunned when he saw Mu Caiwei in the house clearly. Surprise flashed through his eyes.
At this moment, Mu Caiwei had just finished dressing herself. She was dressed like a bride, but there was no red phoenix crown on her head.
Under the candlelight, the beauty’s features were like a painting. Her skin was as fair as snow, and her long black hair flowed down her slender waist like a waterfall.
Together with her slightly shy face, it stunned Ye Chen for a moment.
Under his gaze, even the usually cold Mu Caiwei could not help but blush.
