Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy

Chapter 593 - 594: A small grove, a man and a woman [First update]

Ye War God didn’t believe for a second that he would face any bloody disaster. He insisted on following, so Ye Qingxian and the others could only let him have his way.

"Little princess Si’er, I’m telling you, that con artist can probably only fool you," Ye War God repeated this sentence all the way there. Si’er ignored him, but he just kept on talking.

Upon arriving at Duke Guang’s Mansion, the gluttonous monk Dao Feng called out, "Senior Sister has arrived!"

Hong Ji and Lan Niang also looked toward Si’er and said, "Senior Sister!"

With a serious expression, Si’er nodded. She then glanced at Ye War God and asked, "Does your face hurt?"

"It hurts!" Ye War God replied, stunned. He had just claimed that Wu Tian could only deceive Si’er, but now there were three people here, all of them genuinely Wu Tian’s disciples. It was a slap in the face, so of course it hurt.

"Brother Sect Leader!" she said, running over to Wu Tian with joy.

"Did you sleep well yesterday?" Wu Tian asked casually.

"Yes, yes." Si’er nodded sweetly.

She adored her Brother Sect Leader; this was how a big brother should be. Her actual older brother, on the other hand, was not nice at all. He always wore a cold expression, as if everyone in the world owed him something.

"Hey, don’t just talk to her. I’m standing right here, you know?" Seeing Wu Tian ignore him yet again, Ye War God huffed, his face full of arrogance.

"But I really like women, so I can’t bring myself to pay attention to you," Wu Tian said, looking troubled.

"..."

Yi Ren, Si’er, Ye Qingxian, and the others present all wore strange expressions.

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Ye War God felt like he was about to spit blood. He sensed the others’ strange looks growing even more peculiar and exclaimed, "I like women, too! Women!"

"Forget it. Even if you liked men, it would have nothing to do with me." Wu Tian, acting as if he hadn’t heard a word, waved his hand dismissively. "I’m about to start instructing my disciples. You and Yi Ren can leave now."

"Fine, we’ll leave." Ye War God started to go, but something suddenly occurred to him. He looked at Ye Qingxian, then back at Wu Tian. "Why can she stay?"

"Because she’s pretty," Wu Tian stated.

Ye War God was speechless. "..."

Yi Ren, meanwhile, was about to explode with anger. What did Wu Tian mean by that? So, Princess Ye Qingxian from the neighboring country was beautiful? And I’m not? I’m the Grand Princess of Xiuyuan Country! Countless princes and noblemen dreamed of winning my favor. Some even knelt outside the Royal Palace for three days and three nights just for a chance to see me. How could Wu Tian not find me beautiful?

"I’m going to stand right here and see how you fool everyone." Ye War God refused to leave. If his own sister could stay while he was kicked out, how could he show his face in public if word got out?

"Get out." Wu Tian walked toward him. Ye War God stood his ground, wanting to see just how Wu Tian would make him get out.

Wu Tian threw a direct kick.

Ye War God—whose birth name was Ye Fan, a name he felt wouldn’t lead to any great achievements and thus changed to Ye War God—tried to dodge, but he failed to account for Wu Tian’s experience and extraordinary perception. Wu Tian had already foreseen his exact movement. Changing the angle of his kick, he sent Ye War God flying.

"You should go, too," Wu Tian said, looking at Yi Ren. "Surely you don’t want me to kick you out as well, do you?"

"You..." Yi Ren was flushed with shame and fury. She certainly did not want her tender backside to be kicked. Gritting her teeth, Yi Ren left on her own.

Wu Tian had kept Ye Qingxian around because he was very curious about her relationship with the Empress. The records in the Royal Library mentioned that a supreme female figure had vanished from the world. Could this supreme female figure be the Empress? Wu Tian wondered.

Coming back to himself, Wu Tian looked around and said to Si’er and the others, "You are all truly fortunate and deeply blessed. Having me as your Sect Leader is a stroke of luck you’ve cultivated over eight lifetimes."

"..."

Wu Tian was being completely serious. Back when he was the Wutian Celestial Emperor, countless people had knelt and begged to enter his sect. But Si’er and the others didn’t understand. Hong Ji, Lan Niang, and Dao Feng exchanged baffled looks.

Sect Leader, is this what they call spouting utter nonsense with a straight face?

Even Si’er felt that her Brother Sect Leader might be exaggerating just a little.

"Confucius once said, ’In teaching, there should be no distinction of classes’!" Wu Tian thought for a moment, then stood with his hands clasped behind his back, radiating the commanding aura of a sect master that demanded submission. "It is also said that one must teach according to a student’s aptitude! The skills each of you must learn are different. In a moment, you will separate. When I call your name, you will come with me into the grove."

There was a small grove in Duke Guang’s Mansion. Though small, it was very private.

"Si’er, you’re first. Come with me." After calling her, Wu Tian entered the grove himself.

"Okay, Big Brother!" Si’er skipped happily into the trees.

The gluttonous monk Dao Feng had a strange expression on his face. "Calling us in one by one... something incredible is definitely going to happen."

Lan Niang and Hong Ji frowned slightly and couldn’t help but ask, "What kind of thing?"

"A man and a woman, entering a grove alone together... what do you think will happen?" Dao Feng crossed his arms and said with a tremor in his voice. Heavens, I’m a man! What am I going to do? My body is not for sale!

"..." Lan Niang and Hong Ji shuddered, frightened by Dao Feng’s suggestion.

Si’er entered the grove and stood before Wu Tian. She was nervous and curious. What exactly was Wu Tian going to teach her?

She had originally wanted to learn the Great Penetrating Fist and had even told Wu Tian so. But now, Si’er was starting to regret it. She felt she would never be able to learn it!

Her own brother always ridiculed her. "Little sister, you want to learn our royal family’s Great Penetrating Fist? Hehe, you should be happy just to learn the basics. As a member of the royal family, you’ve lived a pampered life of luxury. You have only one purpose: to marry for the sake of our family, either to win over an important minister or to forge an alliance with another nation!"

Her brother’s words echoed in her ears. Si’er felt a wave of sadness. Her brother himself had only reached an intermediate level with the Great Penetrating Fist. Could she ever achieve perfection?

Just then, Wu Tian’s voice sounded in her mind, snapping Si’er back to reality.

"Demonstrate the Great Penetrating Fist for me," Wu Tian said, looking at her with a calm expression.

He planned to mold Si’er into someone like Bai Qian. He had no choice. After all, wasn’t the Jade Pure Kunlun Fan the most suitable Magical Treasure for her?

Thinking this, Wu Tian chuckled to himself. Does that make me Mo Yuan?

"Alright." Si’er nodded. She had little confidence in herself, but since her Big Brother wanted to see, she immediately complied.

She performed the Great Penetrating Fist, but it lacked any martial ferocity. Instead, it was filled with a unique feminine gentleness. The style of the Great Penetrating Fist was completely at odds with Si’er’s nature. Soon, she finished the set.

Wu Tian nodded.

"Big Brother, I know I’m not suited for the Great Penetrating Fist. If it’s not a good fit, I’ll never be able to master it. Do you think I should switch to another Martial Arts Technique?" Si’er hesitated before finally voicing her thoughts.

Wu Tian shook his head. "Don’t worry. If I say you can learn it, you can learn it."

"But..." Si’er hesitated.

"The reason you’re so soft-hearted is because of the haunted house incidents you kept encountering as a child, isn’t it?" Wu Tian stated directly, recalling the clear records of everyone on the Investiture of the Gods.

"How... how did you know?" Si’er gasped in astonishment, her beautiful eyes wide and her cute mouth agape, as if she could swallow a pear whole.
