"Oh? Your father?" Jiang Che raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah, that's what he calls himself, but I really hate him!" Yu Wan'er muttered with a pout. She had actually already guessed that she might really have an incredible biological father. After all, Big Sister Yaoyao had a super badass background, said to be the reincarnation of some Supreme Forgetfulness Immortal.
As Sister Yaoyao's closest best friend, it wouldn't be strange for her to have an awesome background too.
But so what?
She didn't want any father. The first time she ever called someone "Daddy" was to Jiang Che. She didn't need a biological father at all, and she certainly didn't want one!
She was already very happy with her current life. She had so many good sisters around her, and although Jiang Che was a dog of a man... he treated her very well. Her mother had also gained immortality... and even stepped onto the path of cultivation.
Her life was only a few babies with Jiang Che away from being absolutely perfect.
"He came looking for you?" Jiang Che raised his eyebrows. He figured Yu Wan'er's biological father must have a significant background, otherwise, how could he not trace any signs of his existence?
"Yeah! It was a few days ago when we were playing in the mortal realm. But I really hate him... I used a few One-Hit Kill cards from your system and chased him away!"
Yu Wan'er puffed out her cheeks, looking extremely rebellious. This was already the second time she had used a One-Hit Kill card on her own father.
"Uh..." Jiang Che's mouth twitched, but this really did fit Yu Wan'er's personality.
"Jiang Che, I suspect that this person claiming to be my biological father might be plotting against you!" Yu Wan'er's small face tightened.
It wasn't that she was a conspiracy theorist, but she was somewhat worried. Jiang Che was out in the open while he was hiding in the dark. If he was really a good person, why would he hide himself?
He definitely wanted to use her name to harm Jiang Che!
This was what worried her the most. If he really was her biological father but had a grudge against Jiang Che, wouldn't she become a sinner for no reason?
What if Jiang Che made things difficult for her then?
Although she knew very well... with Jiang Che's personality, he wouldn't make things difficult for her, she just didn't want such an unstable factor to exist.
She hadn't had a father since childhood, so naturally, she had never felt fatherly love. Yu Wan'er's feelings for Jiang Che actually contained a kind of daughter-like dependence.
"Whoa, if he really is your dad, that would be a hilarious display of filial piety," Jiang Che laughed unhurriedly.
"I'm serious!!! I have absolutely no feelings for that guy... If one day he really poses a threat to you, don't hesitate... just kill him!" A ruthless look appeared on the girl's face.
Jiang Che had never seen such an expression on Yu Wan'er before.
The girl nestled in Jiang Che's arms like a little sloth. Spoiled by him, she had become completely dependent on him.
"What biological father? Giving birth but not raising the child makes one unworthy of being human!"
Seeing Yu Wan'er acting like a little angry bun, Jiang Che chuckled. Although he didn't know who Yu Wan'er's biological father was, his status shouldn't be as high as his own, otherwise, he wouldn't keep hiding in dark corners.
"Jiang Che... do you think I might be a tool?" Yu Wan'er suddenly looked up, a trace of imperceptible caution in her eyes.
"What tool?" Jiang Che frowned.
"I... I always feel like I'm not that great. Even if you are a perverted lolicon, you don't lack petite girls around you. I... I suspect that my very existence might be used by someone."
"Do you think it's possible that my existence was predetermined? That even without me knowing... after getting close to you, I would deal a fatal blow to you at some moment in the future?"
It had to be said, Yu Wan'er's intuition was almost on par with some conceptual-level ability. She had actually guessed most of it right!
The girl's mood was quite low, and even her hair drooped.
"Heh, are you having a bout of persecution paranoia?" Jiang Che chuckled softly. Deal a fatal blow to him at some moment?
With her tiny frame?
"Hey, hey, hey... I'm worrying about you, okay? You megalomaniac!" Yu Wan'er was so angry she laughed.
Jiang Che reached out and rubbed Yu Wan'er's head. "Don't overthink it. I'll investigate that guy who claims to be your biological father. I also hate things that act all mysterious and play tricks all day."
Sneaking around... and he wants to be Young Master Jiang's father-in-law?
Keep dreaming!
Given how much he spoiled his girls, anyone who made Yu Wan'er unhappy... that guy hiding in the dark was destined to meet a bad end!
...
Drunken Immortal Pavilion.
"Li Qinghuan, let me tell you! The suffering I've endured... you'll have to go through it too sooner or later," the Little Loli Sword Spirit lay on the futon with her butt sticking up, her eyes full of resentment as she looked at Li Qinghuan.
Li Qinghuan's gaze was evasive. Although her little sword spirit was very mischievous and extremely short-tempered, seeing her current state was just too miserable!
How arrogant was this little sword spirit before? She feared nothing in heaven or earth, but now she only dared to be arrogant in front of her. She must have suffered immensely under Jiang Che.
"Here, here, here. This is a Sword Dao Source Soul, take it to nourish yourself, okay?"
Li Qinghuan took out a pure blue crystal block from her pocket, which contained a rich Sword Dao will.
The Sword Dao Source Soul was a rare immortal material that could only be born in the world's rarest Ten Thousand Sword Tombs. It had immense benefits for tempering immortal swords.
Of course, for a sword cultivator of Li Qinghuan's level, the Ten Thousand Sword Tomb in her eyes... was one of the top ten forbidden areas of the Nine Heavens, a tomb of demonic swords sealed for millions of years. Even for an Immortal Venerable like her, it was fraught with danger.
"Hmph, hypocrite! I don't want your things... Boohoo, I'm not clean anymore!"
Whenever the little sword spirit thought of her encounter, she felt immense lingering fear. Could she... could she be pregnant with a little sword spirit?
There were many sword cultivators in this world who had achieved 'man and sword as one', but someone like Jiang Che who truly took 'man and sword as one' so literally was just too rare and bizarre.
"Take it or leave it!"
"Give it here!" The Little Loli Sword Spirit, with teary eyes, snatched the Sword Dao Source Soul and threw it into her mouth.
"Li Qinghuan, you've been targeted by that guy too. Sooner or later, you're doomed as well."
Li Qinghuan waved her hand in slight annoyance, "I know!"
Her being by Jiang Che's side was only a matter of time. Who knew, maybe one day Jiang Che would come looking for her under the guise of practicing the sword and seeking the Dao...
But suddenly, her divine sense flickered!
"That's right! I almost forgot that I am a Five-Tribulation Immortal Venerable. Jiang Che is merely a cultivator in the Nirvana stage. Even if I suppress my cultivation to become an ordinary person... my Immortal Dao Source is still there... Even if Jiang Che wanted to unite with me, it would be absolutely impossible to accomplish."
Li Qinghuan's mood instantly improved greatly!
The gap in their Immortal Dao Sources was simply too massive. No matter how heaven-defying Jiang Che was, he could never cross this chasm of the Immortal Dao Source!
