On the night of the full moon, on the top of Mount Tai.
A world-shocking bolt of lightning descended from the sky, causing an area of 5km around Mount Tai to be bathed in the glow of lightning. For a time, the heavens and the earth were destroyed, and not a single blade of grass grew.
"Which expert is undergoing tribulation here?"
"There's a phenomenon in the sky, a monster must be descending!"
The top powerhouses of China looked at each other in shock. They only dared to head to Mount Tai to investigate after the lightning dissipated. In the end, they found nothing and returned in disappointment.
…
What no one knew was that three days after the spectacle of Mount Tai disappeared.
Tiannan City, Jinyang District.
A young man stood at the entrance of the district in a daze, causing the passersby to cast sidelong glances at him. This was because the young man's clothes were ragged and his hair was disheveled, as if he was a savage that had walked out from the mountains.
"Five years!"
"Jinyang District, I, Ye Chen, am finally back!"
Ye Chen watched the familiar yet unfamiliar scene before him quietly. His body trembled lightly, and he seemed to be sad yet happy at the same time. However, he ignored the strange looks on the passersby's faces.
No one could understand what he was feeling right now.
Five years ago, he was tied up and sunk into the Surge River. He thought he would definitely die. Who would have thought that he would merge with a magical bottle at the bottom of the river? When he woke up, Ye Chen realized that he had traveled to a cultivation world where demons and immortals roamed.
With this bottle, Ye Chen spent three thousand years cultivating from a mere mortal to the Unparalleled Immortal Venerable Stage. He was known as the Mad Southern Immortal Venerable and founded the Eastern Heavenly Court. He was known as the Heavenly Emperor Ye by all clans. In three thousand years, he had trampled on the geniuses of all clans and conquered everything in the universe.
However, he did not expect to be betrayed by his most trusted disciple, Yu Wenxuan. In order to seize the position of the Heavenly Emperor, Yu Wenxuan joined forces with the Demon Realm, Devil Realm, and Buddha Realm to invade. That battle was unusually fierce. Ye Chen shattered the Emperor Armament, the Heavenly Emperor Sword, and shattered the Tier Nine Immortal Artifact, the Night Demon Battle Armor. In the end, he was thrown into the void rift.
This spatial rift led to Earth. Three days ago, Ye Chen had woken up on Mount Tai. However, his shocking cultivation base had long disappeared and his physical body was on the verge of shattering. If it were not for his special cultivation method, his recovery would not have been so fast.
Meanwhile, Ye Chen found out that he had disappeared for five years.
He had parents in this world, and he even had a beautiful girlfriend.
He wondered how his parents were doing.
And her, Su Yuhan!
Five years had passed. Was she still …
Ye Chen took a deep breath in and walked into the neighborhood after calming himself down.
The Jinyang District used to be a village in the city. Five years ago, a thermal power plant was being built. The residents nearby were compensated with either money or houses. Ye Chen's family got a house too.
Soon, Ye Chen arrived at his house based on his memory. He saw a hunchbacked middle-aged lady with white hair sweeping the floor at the door from far away.
Ye Chen stopped less than ten meters away from her. His voice was extremely hoarse.
"Mom …"
The middle-aged lady lifted her head to look at Ye Chen by instinct. She was stunned at first, then the broom in her hand fell to the ground with a thud. She rubbed her eyes in disbelief. "L-Xiaochen?"
It was Ye Chen's mother, Wu Lan.
Plop!
Ye Chen knelt hard in the water and knelt toward Wu Lan one step after another. He felt like crying. "Mom, I've been unfilial. I've made you guys worry about me for five years!"
As the saying goes, when one's parents are around, one doesn't travel far.
He could imagine how anxious and worried his parents must have been during the five years he had disappeared.
"Xiaochen, why are you only home now?!"
Wu Lan recognized Ye Chen too. The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried, "You silly child. You didn't even call us when you went somewhere. We didn't even see your body. Do you know how sad your father and I have been all these years?"
"Mom, I've gone somewhere far away. I can't contact you guys, but there's not a day that goes by that I don't miss you guys," Ye Chen said with teary eyes.
"It's great that you're back. It's great that you're back. Let's not talk about the past!
Let's go in. I'll call your dad now. He'll be happy to know that! "
Wu Lan wiped her tears and dragged Ye Chen into her house. She then called Ye Chen's father to tell him the good news. Ye Chen looked around the house quietly.
At that moment, a little girl who was four or five years old ran into the house and cried, "Grandma, Xiaohu from next door bullied me again."
The little girl had two braids on her head, revealing her arms that looked like lotus roots. Her long eyelashes could not stop fluttering. She looked like an exquisite porcelain doll from far away. However, her cheeks were puffed at the moment. She looked like she was wronged.
'Grandma?'
Ye Chen was stunned at first. He then looked at the little girl in disbelief.
'Grandma …
'She's mine …'
Only then did the little girl notice Ye Chen. She hid behind Wu Lan by instinct after she stopped crying. She peeped at him with her head out of fear.
Ye Chen looked at Wu Lan immediately. His heart was racing. "Mom, s-she's …"
"Yes, Mengmeng is your and Yuhan's child."
Wu Lan nodded and said while smiling while holding the little girl's hand, "Yuhan got pregnant a few days after you disappeared. She gave birth to Mengmeng a year later, but this girl …"
Ye Chen could not listen to his mother anymore. He walked to the little girl by instinct. "Mengmeng? My daughter? Yuhan gave birth to a sweet little girl for me? "
Never had he thought that he would have a daughter after disappearing for five years. Moreover, she was all grown up now.
He did not believe it at first. To be exact, he could not accept it.
However, he recalled that he had touched Yuhan once half a month before he disappeared. That was the last time, and Yuhan was the one who initiated it. They had sex all of a sudden back then, so they did not take any safety measures.
Moreover, the little girl looked 40% to 50% similar to him.
'I have a daughter now!
Hahaha, I, Ye Tiandi, the Mad Southern Immortal, have a daughter now! '
The emotions of being a father for the first time surged within him. Ye Chen could not wait to hold the little girl in his embrace and take a good look at her.
However, the little girl hid behind Wu Lan again. She pulled Wu Lan's sleeve anxiously, clearly afraid of Ye Chen.
"Mengmeng, this is your daddy. Haven't you been asking for a daddy?" Wu Lan said with a kind expression.
Nobody knew where the little girl got her courage from. She said while blushing, "He's not my daddy. I don't have a daddy!"
"Silly girl, how did you give birth to a daughter if you don't have a daddy?" Wu Lan was between laughter and tears.
The little girl said, "My mother gave birth to me."
Wu Lan was amused by what she said.
However, Ye Chen could not bring himself to laugh. Instead, he felt endless guilt and regret.
It made sense. He had disappeared for five years. He had never seen his daughter since she was born. He had not even fulfilled his responsibility as a father for a day.
Therefore, it was normal that she did not recognize him.
Wu Lan pulled a long face. "Mengmeng, be good. He's really your daddy. Quick, call him daddy."
"No!" Mengmeng looked stubborn.
Wu Lan pretended to be mad and stretched her arm to slap him.
Ye Chen stopped her immediately. "Forget it, Mom. It's okay if Mengmeng doesn't want to call him daddy."
Wu Lan sighed. "Sigh, I suppose you haven't eaten yet? I'll cook for you now. Play with Mengmeng. "
After she left, the father and daughter stared at each other. Ye Chen forced a smile on his face and asked, "Your name is Mengmeng?"
The little girl harrumphed hard and did not give him a good look. She then walked straight to the couch and sat down. She took out a checkered book from her bag and began doing her homework with a focused expression.
Ye Chen moved closer softly, but the little girl blocked him with her hand immediately. Ye Chen did not mind. Instead, he asked while smiling, "Mengmeng, tell daddy. What's your name?"
The little girl did not want to talk to him, but she said in her baby voice, "My name is Ye Mengmeng!"
Ye Mengmeng!
His surname was Ye!
Ye Chen's heart skipped a beat. He resisted the urge to pull her into his embrace and said while smiling, "Ye Mengmeng, that's a great name. Did Mommy give you that? Where's Mom? "
He was a little confused too. He had not seen Su Yuhan since he entered the door. Could she have gone to work?
The little fellow raised her head and glared at him. Her face was stupefied. "Mommy was taken away by the bad guys!"
Captured by the bad guys?
Ye Chen was shocked. Just when he was going to ask something,
Clatter.
The pen in the little girl's hand fell to the ground and she fell onto the sofa. Holding her head with her hands, her face was full of pain. "It hurts, it hurts. Grandma, it hurts so much …"
"What's wrong with you?" Ye Chen carried her in his embrace immediately. He was shocked to find out that there were many red spots on the little girl's body and her nose was bleeding.
Ye Chen stopped her bleeding in a flurry. "Mengmeng, are you alright? Don't scare me!"
Wu Lan came out of the kitchen wearing an apron. After seeing this scene, she hurriedly took out a bottle of medicine from the cabinet and poured a few pills for her to eat.
Mengmeng's condition was alleviated.
Ye Chen felt terrible looking at the little girl who had passed out. "Mom, what happened to Mengmeng?"
He had finally seen his daughter, so he really did not want anything to happen to her.
Wu Lan sighed and said in a sobbing tone, "Mengmeng has leukemia!"
Buzz!
Ye Chen's head exploded!
