It was Saturday morning.
At the Nine Dragons Bay villa.
The Patriarch of Hell looked at the tree that bore the black fruit. He said with his dog eyes wide open, "Master, what exactly is this tree? What's the fruit on it? "
"Aren't you a Tribulation Almighty? You don't know it? "Ye Chen said coldly.
The Patriarch shook his dog ears and walked around the tree. He smiled awkwardly. "Buttface, I've been cultivating in the Cultivation World for more than eight thousand years. I think I'm omniscient, and I've seen many spiritual herbs and exotic plants. But I've never seen anything like this."
He gulped as he spoke to this point. "I think we should pick the fruit and taste it. I'll be the first to taste it. I'll be the first to taste it. If it's poisonous, I'll be the one to die."
"You're quite loyal." Ye Chen chuckled.
The tree could release spiritual energy when it bloomed. It even helped him break through to intermediate-stage Spirit Assembly. How could it be poisonous?
The Grand Patriarch rolled his eyes.
'Although this fruit looks a little strange, it should be edible. If I eat it when this devil isn't paying attention …'
How could Ye Chen not know what it was thinking? He said with a scoff, "You can try. I'll kill you as soon as a leaf is missing, let alone eating a fruit."
"Master, I was just kidding. Don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously." The patriarch jolted and smiled apologetically immediately.
Ye Chen did not bother with it. He walked to the tree and studied the black fruit from top to bottom.
A few days passed.
There were no changes at all.
Ye Chen could not help but frown.
The green liquid in the Immortal Drift Bottle had been used up. He would have to wait until the middle of the next month to produce more.
Without the green liquid, he could not speed up the ripening process at all.
Ye Chen suddenly lifted his head to look at the Patriarch of Hell next to him as he thought to this point. "I have a question for you."
"Go ahead, Master. I'll definitely tell you everything I know." The Patriarch of Hell wagged his tail in a flattering manner.
Ye Chen coughed dryly and said, "Erm, what do you usually do?"
The patriarch's hair stood on end.
The patriarch's hair stood on end. He retreated a few steps back and looked at Ye Chen with his guard up. "You can't do that to me. I won't do it even if I die."
According to the habits of ordinary dogs, when they needed to pee or poop, their owners would take them outside for a walk.
However, the Patriarch was different.
The Elder Ancestor used to be a human, so he might as well be killed if he was asked to raise his legs and defecate and pee in front of everyone like a dog.
Therefore, every time the Elder Ancestor needed to relieve himself, he would sneak out. As for where he did it, no one knew …
"I'm just asking. Don't be so agitated." Ye Chen could not help but rub his nose in disappointment after sensing the patriarch's strong determination.
The dog that the Patriarch was currently possessing was no longer an ordinary dog. The feces of ordinary animals could be used to fertilize crops. If the Patriarch's feces were used, would it be …
After studying the tree for a while, he realized that there was still nothing to be gained.
Ye Chen could only give up. He got the butler, Ah Fu, to take care of it and returned home with the patriarch.
In the end, he found that both his parents were at home, and his daughter, Meng Meng, was secretly hiding in the room, looking very mysterious.
Ye Chen said while smiling, "Dad, Mom, why aren't you guys at work today?"
Ye Hai and Wu Lan had changed jobs. One of them was a secretary in the town hall while the other was in charge of taking care of the retired bosses in the nursing home.
The two old men were confused about that. They thought their luck had changed and they were lucky.
However, Ye Chen knew very well that it must have been the Gu family's help. Putting aside the town hall, the nursing home alone was a place where many people would do anything to get into.
Ye Hai looked at the room that the little girl was in and said in between tears and laughter, "Your mom and I are taking the day off today. We want to spend the day with you."
'Spend the day with me?'
Ye Chen was stunned and walked to the little girl's room in deep thought. "Mengmeng, what are you being so secretive about? Open the door and let me see you. "
"Don't open the door, Daddy," the little girl said nervously as she peeked her head out from a gap in the door.
"Alright, alright, I won't open the door."
Ye Chen shook his head, feeling amused and annoyed at the same time. He activated his Divine Consciousness to scan the house by instinct.
He saw the little girl putting candles on a three-tiered cake. She would turn her head to look out every now and then, afraid that she would be discovered.
'A birthday cake?'
Ye Chen was stunned at first, then he could not help but laugh.
Was it his 30th birthday today?
However, he did not show it to satisfy the little girl's mystery. Instead, he pretended to be impatient and said, "Mengmeng, I'm going out if you don't open the door."
"Alright, alright!
Daddy, don't go! "
As expected, the little girl panicked. She smiled slyly after opening the door. "Turn around, Daddy."
"Why do I have to turn around, Daddy?" Ye Chen asked even though he knew the answer.
The little girl stomped her feet and began acting like a spoiled child. "Oh, Daddy, just turn around. I'll ask you to turn around."
"Alright."
Ye Chen smiled and turned around. However, he saw the little girl turn around and return to the house through his Divine Consciousness. She walked out carefully while shaking while holding the cake in her hands.
"Alright, Daddy. You can turn around now."
Ye Chen secretly chuckled and turned around to look at her.
The little girl said excitedly while holding the cake while blushing, "Happy birthday, Daddy!"
"Is it Daddy's birthday today?" Ye Chen looked surprised. After that, he cooperated and performed the little girl's act.
The little girl placed the cake on the table and rolled her eyes at Ye Chen. "Daddy, you're dumb. You have a bad memory. It's your 30th birthday today. I remember it."
"Do you really remember it?"
Ye Chen looked at his parents next to him and said wryly, "Don't tell me Grandpa and Grandma told you that?"
"You're naughty, Daddy. I'll remember it in the future." The little girl blushed after being exposed.
The little girl ran to Ye Hai and Wu Lan after saying that. Like a female military officer giving out orders, she said, "Grandpa, Grandma, let's wish Daddy a happy birthday. Say it with me.
you!”
Ye Hai and Wu Lan were speechless. "Ha Jiubo died a horrible death …"
"No, no, your pronunciation isn't correct."
The little guy waved his hand and said with a look of disgust, "It's Happy.
you!”
Ye Hai and Wu Lan said again, "Ha Jiubo died a horrible death …"
The little girl was completely defeated. "Grandpa, Grandma, you guys are so dumb."
Ye Chen patted her head angrily. "Your grandpa and grandma barely went to school when they were young. Aren't you making things difficult for them by forcing them to say English?"
Ye Hai shook his head helplessly. "Mengmeng, Grandpa is testing you. Do you know how to say 'coal mine' in English?"
"I don't."
The little girl stuck her tongue out and looked curious. "Grandpa, do you know how to say it?"
Ye Hai nodded and said in all seriousness, "Of course. Listen up, this is how you say 'coal mine' in English. It's a big, black lump."
Ye Chen was speechless.
Wu Lan snickered and glared at Ye Hai angrily.
The little girl failed to react at the moment. She realized that she had been fooled when she saw Ye Chen and Wu Lan's expression. She stomped her feet. "Grandpa, you're a bully. You're bad. I won't talk to you anymore!"
"Alright, Grandpa is just joking with you. Aren't we celebrating Daddy's birthday? Cut the cake for Daddy, "Ye Chen said while smiling.
Mengmeng rolled her eyes at him. "Daddy is a silly man. You haven't made a wish yet."
Ye Chen pressed his palms together while smiling immediately and said, "My wish is for my precious daughter, Mengmeng, to grow up healthy. I don't ask you to be outstanding, nor do I ask you to be rich. It's because I can give you these things whenever you want them."
"Oh, Daddy, you can't say your wish out loud. Otherwise, it won't come true." The little girl looked at Ye Chen as if she was looking at a fool next door.
"Don't worry. If it doesn't come true, Daddy will think of a way to make it come true!"
Ye Chen smiled.
"Daddy's wish is so simple," the little girl mumbled and rushed to cut the cake with excitement written all over her face.
The family began eating a piece of cake each.
Ye Chen pointed at his face. "It's Daddy's birthday today. Aren't you going to give Daddy a reward?"
The little girl put the cake down. She did not even wipe her mouth and smacked Ye Chen's face.
She could not stop giggling when she saw the cake on Ye Chen's face. "Daddy is a tabby cat now."
