Return of the Immortal Emperor Daddy-Chapter 135 - s of Fusang, Unconvinced

"If you have an opinion, speak up!" A glint of sharp light flashed through Wu Tian’s eyes, and the invisible pressure in the space intensified.

Zhang Jifeng and the others felt as if a massive mountain was pressing down on them. Their bodies shook, and they collapsed to the ground. Faced with this irresistible force, Zhang Jifeng and his companions finally submitted.

"We yield!"

"Yes, we have no opinion! No opinion at all!"

"We are willing to let her be our Sect Leader!"

The Wudang disciples, each trembling, spoke up one after another.

"I... I am also willing to assist her," Zhang Jifeng finally added.

"Good." Wu Tian nodded.

The Blood Mist gradually dissipated, and the figure within it vanished as if it had never been there. Zhang Jifeng and the Wudang disciples finally understood what it meant for a Divine Dragon to be so elusive, appearing and disappearing without a trace.

As the Blood Mist shrouding Wudang finally faded, the people at the foot of Wudang Mountain breathed a collective sigh of relief.

"I just filmed a video of that!"

"I got photos!"

"Blood Mist enveloping Wudang... I’ve never seen such a bizarre phenomenon."

"I’m posting this to my feed."

"I have to post this online!"

The reporters looked at each other. As journalists, they had one guiding principle: be fearless and get the story. Gritting their teeth, they finally decided to head up Wudang Mountain.

Meanwhile, atop the mountain, the terrifying presence from the Blood Mist was gone. Zhang Jifeng and the others felt a mixture of regret and horror. They regretted having finally encountered such a legendary figure without ever seeing his true face, but they were horrified by the visitor’s lethal methods.

"Now... now we must clean up the scene!" Zhang Jifeng suddenly realized, directing the Wudang disciples to start moving. They meticulously disposed of every trace of blood and flesh.

"Jifeng, when do you think we should go to Yang City First Kindergarten?" one of the disciples asked. With no one else to turn to, they now looked to Zhang Jifeng for leadership.

"As soon as possible," Zhang Jifeng said solemnly after a moment of thought. "That child, despite being in kindergarten, must be extraordinary to have been chosen by that divine being. I will personally accompany you to welcome our new Sect Leader. No one is to disrespect her because of her age or say anything foolish. Anyone who does will be expelled from Wudang."

"Yes, sir!"

When Wu Tian returned to Yang City, he personally escorted Guli Weileng home. On the way, he told her what had transpired at Wudang.

Guli Weileng couldn’t believe it. I was only unconscious for an hour... How could so much have happened?

By the time they reached Baiyun Mountain, Xiao Liang and Tellam had already received word of Wu Tian’s arrival and were waiting at the main gate. Many official figures resided on Baiyun Mountain, and seeing Xiao Liang and Tellam waiting for someone piqued their curiosity. The question on everyone’s mind was the same: What kind of person could make someone like Xiao Liang—and Tellam, the Family Head of a powerful European family—wait for them personally?

"Could it be some important figure from Longjing?" one neighbor mused.

"Yes, that’s very likely."

"Or maybe someone from the Rothschild Family. They are the number one family in Europe, after all."

"Yes, yes! If it’s not a dignitary from Longjing, it must be a guest from a great European family. It has to be one or the other!"

Finally, a Land Rover arrived. The first to get out was Guli Weileng. She thanked Wu Tian for his help; she knew that without him, it would have been nearly impossible to escape from the clutches of Lu Yunsheng. Not only that, but she would have been controlled by Wujizi and forced to marry him. I never imagined my own master could be such a cruel person.

From the surrounding villas, curious onlookers watched from their windows, their speculations running wild.

"That’s Guli Weileng."

"She’s Madam Tellam’s granddaughter."

"To have her own granddaughter personally welcome the guest... This person’s status must be incredibly high. We were just guessing before, but now we can be certain. He must be the son of a major figure from Longjing or the scion of a prominent European family."

"Right, right! And look at the smile in Madam Tellam’s eyes. She definitely wants to matchmake Guli Weileng with the person in that car." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Finally, Wu Tian got out of the car.

"It’s him?!"

Many people recognized him as the man who had crippled Nalan Feng, the so-called number one young master of Yang City, at the Gambling Stone Field. More recently, Wu Tian had earned a legendary SSSSS rating in the business world, making him a household name in Yang City.

Similar conversations broke out in the surrounding villas.

"How strange. Why is it him?"

"And why not?"

"Think about it. He’s a young man that Xiao Liang thinks highly of and that Tellam values. Logically, he should be the one showing them respect, not the other way around."

None of them could make sense of the relationship between Wu Tian, Xiao Liang, and Tellam.

Wu Tian and Guli Weileng then walked into Xiao Liang’s villa.

"Mr. Wu Tian, I am truly grateful for your help this time," Tellam said, looking at Wu Tian with deep appreciation now that she knew what had happened.

"It was nothing," Wu Tian replied flatly.

Despite his dismissive tone, Tellam remained deeply thankful. She knew that if Guli Weileng had been taken away and the deed was done, even her powerful family background would have been of no use.

"This is bad, this is bad!"

Just then, Xiao Tianzan returned. The normally composed man rushed in, muttering that something was wrong, as if a major crisis had occurred.

"Is there a problem?" Wu Tian asked, his expression calm. In this mortal world, what could possibly happen that I would consider a major issue?

"I’ve taught you since you were a child not to be so rash! What is going on?" Xiao Liang demanded.

"Mr. Wu Tian is here! That’s wonderful." Xiao Tianzan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Wu Tian. "I’ve received a directive from the higher-ups. It’s a message sent to all the top provincial officials."

Hearing this, both Xiao Liang and Tellam frowned.

Xiao Liang asked, "What could possibly be so important that it would warrant a direct order from the Head of State?"

Tellam interjected, "Every Head of State your Dragon Country has had since the Great War and the subsequent partisan struggles has been exceptionally shrewd. For your leader to take such action, something extraordinary must be happening."

"It is indeed a major issue, and one that is highly relevant to the Martial Arts World," Xiao Tianzan said, stepping closer to Wu Tian.

"What is it? Speak," Wu Tian urged, a flicker of interest in his eyes.

"Yes, of course." Since Wu Tian had asked, Xiao Tianzan immediately explained, "As you know, in this day and age, there are no open conflicts between nations. But a weak country has no diplomacy and no dignity. I won’t comment on who was truly stronger during the Great War between Dragon Country and Fusang, but Fusang has always held a grudge. What’s more, Fusang is now a developed nation while our Dragon Country is still a developing one. They have always believed they should have been the victors back then. Now, Fusang has finally made a move. It isn’t a declaration of war, but if Dragon Country loses this challenge, our national dignity will be shattered."

"What move has Fusang made?" Wu Tian asked, his brow furrowed slightly.
