2024-01-20 03:14:43Jenny, who had lived with the Andersons for three years, isn't ignorant of what Old Ye said. The Anderson patriarch had told Jenny several times to convince her grandfather to sell Ye's ancestral land to the Daniels, but she had refused; she hadn't expected Old Ye to already be aware of it.
Tears clouded her eyes as she realized her years of suffering in the hands of the Andersons, all to protect her grandfather from blame, were coming to an abrupt end.
Tears began to roll down her eyes. Emperor Dao, who has been numbed of human feelings for billions of years, felt this usual feeling of concern and anxiety towards Jenny who was weeping. Old Ye became flustered and unable to know how to act.
"Stop crying," Old Ye said forcefully, attempting to hide the surging emotions within, which only added to the awkwardness of the situation."
"Grandpa, I will sign the divorce papers. I have been putting up with the marriage so that you won't blame yourself," Jenny responded, swiping away the tears rolling down her cheeks with the back of her hand.
Old Ye exhaled in relief when he heard what Jenny said; he didn't expect the matter to be settled smoothly.
Taking the divorce papers from the hands of Old Ye, Jenny angrily signed the divorce papers. After signing, she let out a sigh of relief.
Old Ye retrieved the divorce papers from Jenny with satisfaction. He patted Jenny's back and comforted her: "There is no need to be sad; the Andersons won't live long to celebrate their wickedness. When I get back, I will make you as good as new."
"Thank you, Grandpa." Jenny nodded and then forced a smile. She didn't believe the words of Old Ye; the Anderson family were not people they could contend with.
Old Ye didn't try to convince her; he took the divorce papers and walked out of the courtyard. If one watched his feet while walking, one would notice that his feet didn't come into contact with the ground.
The moment he left the rusty gate, he blended with the environment and teleported directly to the gate of the Anderson mansion.
When he arrived, they were already fixing the gate he had damaged earlier.
"Humh!" Old Ye snorted in dissatisfaction, and a turbid air came from his nostrils and smashed the gate.
The gate collapsed onto the workers, eliciting painful wails.
How can Emperor Dao allow something he has destroyed to be rebuilt?
Old Ye jumped over the gate crushing the workers that it fell on, and headed towards the Anderson mansion.
Except for the servants moving around and a few bodyguards around the big mansion structure, the crowd of people Old Ye saw earlier was no longer in sight.
"Stop right there!" a thundering voice roared in rage when Old Ye wanted to barge into the mansion arrogantly.
Old Ye looked in the direction the voice came from and saw a young man in his early twenties; he was the fifth son of Old Anderson. Looking at the haughty boy, Old Ye lost his impatience and retorted in rage, "Brat, are you talking to this lord?"
In Old Ye's memories, this brat has a name, and his name is Tony. He has made fun of former Old Ye's times without a number; most of the time, he was the one sending the former Old Ye away. The grudge between them is deep.
"Little madman, who let you in? security! security!!" Tony shouted in anger; he didn't expect the handsome-looking man to call him a brat, and he hated people who looked better than him. With the summation of Old Ye's crimes, it would be strange if he didn't call the guards not to beat him up immediately.
Ten burly men dressed in black security uniforms with batons assembled immediately at his command.
Old Ye looked at them condescendingly; if not for the fact that he didn't want to cause too much havoc, he would have killed them all at once.
"Little bastard, I will forgive you for being ignorant; this Lord didn't have the time to entertain you and those ants; this is the divorce papers; the Anderson family has no marriage alliance with the Ye family from today henceforth," Old Ye said coldly and tossed the divorce papers towards Tony and the ten burly security men.
Tony's face was filled with surprise and then anger. He didn't expect someone from that wretched Ye family to talk so arrogantly and even act overbearing in the Anderson family, where tigers and dragons lowered their heads when seeking an audience.
"Stop right there! Where do you think you are running off to?" Tony shouted; he was yet to process his anger when Old Ye turned around and left.
Old Ye didn't even stop walking, and neither did he look back. Tony's anger soared when he saw Old Ye's action.
"Fuck! Grab that madman and beat him up until he realises that this daddy isn't someone a pauper could look down on." Tony gave a series of orders with gnashed teeth, he looked down at the divorce papers lying on the ground, and his anger rose once again.
He roared in rage and raised his leg to stomp on them, but to his surprise, anytime he landed his foot on the ground, the papers would move and dodge.
"What is going on?" Tony asked and rubbed his eyes in shock. He couldn't believe it. He tried once again and failed. Cold sweats filled his back in trepidation.
When he raised his head and saw that the security guards that went after Old Ye had been running towards him but couldn't get close to him, no matter how hard they tried, they were all covered in sweat and exhaling heavy breaths, yet they couldn't capture Old Ye.
"What is going on?" Old Anderson came out of the house, saw the situation, and asked immediately. One of the servants who witnessed the confrontation told him about the matter.

Old Anderson was already fuming because of the calls he had received while inside the mansion. The military had captured his sons, relatives, and grandsons without employing a soft approach. He had tried to find out the reason, but all his contacts in the military were not even willing to answer his calls.Facing such a situation, Old Anderson was already filled with frustration and anger. When he saw what was going on in the courtyard, he was even more angered.Before Tony could respond to his father, he felt a stinging pain on the left part of his cheek that forcefully craned his head. "What do you think you are doing?" Old Anderson asked balefully; he had seen the divorce papers he had waited for years to come on the floor, and his good-for-nothing last son was trying to ruin them.Tony's face was filled with shock. His father had never laid a hand on him before; this was the first time, and he was dazed with confusion. "Dad, why did you slap me? I have never done anything wrong,"
THE URBAN EMPEROR DAO Chapter 9: The Power of the Beauty Pill
It was only natural for Old Ye to have such thoughts after seeing the grand structures around the city.When he looked around the room, his eyebrows furrowed in displeasure.As Emperor Dao, how could he tolerate living in a house that was inferior to his worship temples in the immortal world?""Grandpa, how do you intend to get the money to build a new house?" Jenny asked with a face filled with concern, apart from selling vegetables in the market, Old Ye doesn't have any means of income.Seeing the concern on her face, Old Ye shook his head and retorted, "Sell vegetables? Why would I ever do such a thing? This Lord has no interest in selling vegetables, you shouldn't worry about how I will get the money; I will think of a way." After dismissing Jenny's concern, he said, "Before I forget, here is the beauty pill, take a bath the moment you swallow it."He opened his palm, revealing a blue pill. Jenny hesitated before receiving it.Old Ye left the living room for the kitchen, and immed
THE URBAN EMPEROR DAO Chapter 10: The Intruder
"Little child, you should quickly kowtow to this old man, caring for you for so many years has not been easy." Old Ye sighed and said he was excited to see another of his grandsons.The more, the better. He couldn't wait to assemble them all, imagine eleven of them calling him grandfather at once. How exciting!While Old Ye was imagining such a fantastical scenario, he didn't realise that calling himself an old man was odd because he was so young—very young—that Hayden, who had toiled all his days as a cleaner, looked older.Strange facial expressions appeared on Hayden's face and Jenny and John's."I ask you who you are, and you are blabbering nonsense? Who did you take care of for many years? You better explain things clearly."Hayden roared in rage; he folded his sleeves immediately, ready for a fight.Although Hayden was a good-tempered person, he had suffered lots of grievances for so many years because he was suppressed by the Daniels and all the aristocratic families coveting h

Those were only probabilities. Hearing what Old Ye said, the red robe expert was very infuriated; he didn't expect a day like this would come when a young man who hadn't even grown a beard would look at him and utter such insolent words."Little Brat, you have angered this old man; this is the first time someone has dared talk to this old man like this for the past sixty years. I will make sure you wish for death but won't have it." Done speaking, the red robe expert's internal qi surged, and his aura exploded. A pressure like a mountain surged towards Old Ye like a tide.The red robe expert's eyes widened in shock; he didn't expect that Old Ye was still standing calmly without any strain at all; his powerful aura didn't even seem to make an impact on his outfit at all.That was the first time the red robe expert doubted himself. He looked around and saw the trees prostrating, but Old Ye stood there calmly.Dumbfounded, the red robe expert asked Old Ye suspiciously, "Brat, what kind

"If you expect me to still be someone who would do nothing and allow every cat and dog in the street to walk over my head before I become your grandfather, then that is impossible. I am now a changed man; I will be someone whom dragons and lions will bow to; I will stand at the top of the world, and everyone will bow to me," Old Ye proclaimed arrogantly. He has the capital to be unbridled with his words.With his temper as Emperor Dao, he had said too little.Although Hayden was suspicious of the young man claiming to be his grandfather, he felt relieved that Old Ye's personality had changed.He was very aggrieved at how his grandfather and sisters, along with his brothers and himself, were maltreated these past few years; they were tortured to the extent they couldn't even fight back, and the former Old Ye didn't have the intention to fight back even if they wished to."Those who try to ruin me will be doomed; those who favour me will be rewarded; and every debt will be paid accordin
THE URBAN EMPEROR DAO Chapter 13: Catching the Bicycle Parts Thieves
Glancing at John, Old Ye opened his mouth to speak, already knowing his thoughts. "Those you offended, naturally, you have to ask for forgiveness, and those who offended you are meant to seek forgiveness from you; that is the natural order of things. Hurry up and prepare for school; no one can make my grandson beg forgiveness; even gods and demons with leviathans can't achieve such a thing."Old Ye's words were overbearing, and he didn't fail to exude the awe in his bones.But all these were meaningless before Jenny and John, who had never cultivated before; their faces were filled with shock rather than worship.Very depressing.Sighing Old Ye waved his hand and said impatiently to John, "Hurry up and take your bath; if you don't arrive at school early, they will have a legitimate reason to punish you. Also, take this beauty pill I promised you last night."Hearing Old Ye's words, John regained his senses. Receiving the beauty pill excitedly from Old Ye, he returned to his room to ta
THE URBAN EMPEROR DAO Chapter 14: Lacking the Heart of a Thief
The bicycle thief's swift action of surrendering and pleading for mercy rendered Old Ye speechless.He has not even started playing with the thief yet, and he caved in immediately. Old Ye didn't expect that the thief didn't have any backbone; in the immortal world, he had run into countless thieves who had hundreds and thousands of means of escaping calamities.Looking at the snot and tears covering the thief's face as he pleaded fearfully, his tongue clicked."I won't kill you," Old Ye replied softly. His imposing posturing was already gone; there was no need for it with the way the thief was behaving."Thank you, thank you," the blue-shirt youth thanked him incessantly while kowtowing with his head slamming down the concrete pavement."Hand over the money," Old Ye demanded.The blue shirt youth sprung to his feet and handed over all the money he had counted earlier fawningly. He was even smiling, but the smile plastered on his face was uglier than his crying face."The ones in your
THE URBAN EMPEROR DAO Chapter 15: The Bicycle Ride
Old Ye didn't know the concept of clothes making a man.He was used to putting on a set of outfits for thousands of years in the immortal world.A blank look creased his face as he looked at Jenny and John, clueless about what they were hinting at.Realising that if she didn't explain properly, Old Ye wouldn't be aware that the set of clothes he was putting on was unacceptable."Grandpa, if you are going to put on that and take John to school, reaching the gate won't be impossible, but entering the school will be impossible. I doubt if you will even get to the gate before running back home in shame," Jenny said.Jenny was speaking lightly about the issue. With what Old Ye is putting on, he will be mocked from the gate till he reaches the school; the tag of a madman is even more likely."I will go and change then," Old Ye responded; he wasn't long-winded.Done speaking, he returned inside the house to change the dirty button shirt and the faded trousers.The moment Old Ye left, Hayden

"That is him; he is the one that isn't here for the audition but to 'cause trouble," the young man who brought the security man pointed his finger at Old Ye and said.Old Ye sat calmly, acting like the young man or the security man standing before him didn't exist; in his eyes, the two of them were not worthy of his attention."Hello sir, if you are not here for the audition, please leave; this is a place meant for people who are here for the audition," the security man told Old Ye with an expressionless face."Please, sir, he came with us; he is my father," Andrea chimed in to douse the tension.The security man and the young man who brought him stiffened in shock. Old Ye, who doesn't look older than Andrea, is her father.What a joke!"Slap him, and I am going to help you," Old Ye told the security man, shocking the security man and the young man who brought him.With eyes wide open, the young man shouted angrily, "Nonsense! How can you help anybody when you haven't helped yourself?
Chapter 59: The Audition
Old Ye caught Jenny looking at him, and he chuckled and asked teasingly, "Why are you looking at me? Am I too handsome, and you can't take your eyes off me?"Jenny looked at Old Ye seriously and responded, "Dad, you are awesome.""Of course, I am awesome; if I am not awesome, how will I become your father?" Old Ye reposted proudly.When they came out of the training school, they saw Wing leaning on her car."Hey! Hey! Hold on," Wing said while walking towards Old Ye and Jenny.Old Ye didn't bother responding to her; he kept on flagging down a taxi that sped past them."I am talking to you; are you deaf?" Wing asked angrily.Old Ye turned to her with a glare. He was still happy over what Jenny just said; he didn't expect someone to suddenly ruin his happy mood."Hey, I will give you a check for ten million dollars. I want you to leave the school and never dance in your entire life," Wing said arrogantly. She was covered in branded products from head to toe, and her luxurious car showed
Chapter 58: Arrogance
With a glance, Old Ye could guess what was on his mind."My daughter could do it; if you are not doubting, you can take her to the training hall and confirm it yourself," Old Ye suggested.Jenny looked at Old Ye, wondering why he had so much confidence in her. He didn't spare any praise when it came to her, the blind support he gave was too overwhelming.Henderson didn't think too much either; he decided to bank on Jenny. He turned to his secretary and said, "Jim, tell Miss Wing; she can go ahead; our school cannot afford her.""Sir," Jim called out anxiously. Although Wing was arrogant and unbearable, she was the only hope for their school to make a comeback at the A-City dance competition in a few weeks."Go ahead and do as I said," Mr. Henderson said, dismissing her impatiently with a wave of his hand.After Jim left, Henderson brought Jenny into one of the training halls. Old Ye followed them from behind and sat in a corner."Do a complete circle spin," Henderson said, and Jenny d
Chapter 57: My Granddaughter Is the Best
Old Ye gritted his teeth in anger. He had never been annoyed like this before, to the extent he was still furious when he walked into the house.He went into his room and meditated throughout the night. The next morning, a knock at the door distracted him from meditating.He got up and opened the door. Hayden stood before him, and before Old Ye could say a word, he was embraced by Hayden. "Thank you so much, grandpa! The cream was perfect." Hayden said happily, he spent the entire night experimenting with the formula before achieving it, and the cream he produced was perfect, so he left the laboratory and rushed back home to appreciate Old Ye for his help."As your grandpa, that is what I ought to do." Old Ye patted his back in joy; the smile on his face was bright. Old Ye had never smiled like that before.Hayden broke the hug and then said, "Grandpa, I will be rushing to get a patent for the formula and cream and also send it for approval."The moment Hayden was done talking, he tu

"One-"The moment Old Ye started counting, the thugs Philip Anderson came with took off, racing towards the gate wildly. The only regret they had then was that their parents didn't give birth to them with three legs to enable them to run faster.Philip Anderson was left standing alone, dry, and without any support."This isn't over yet," Philip Anderson spat out in rage and got into his car, driving off. He didn't care about the van or the thugs he brought with him.Luckily, the car wasn't utterly damaged by Old Ye's smack on the bonnet."You are so powerful, you sent them running away with just a slap and a few words," Lucy praised while demonstrating Old Ye's poses while facing Philip Anderson and the thugs he came with.Old Ye glanced at Lucy Alloy with an expressionless face before walking inside the house without saying a word. Lucy ran after him, excitedly chattering non-stop.Jenny Wilson joined them inside the house, and when she came in, she saw that Old Ye was already sittin

Edwin wanted to say one or two words to Jane Wilson, but to his surprise, Jane Wilson was already on her feet. "Mrs. Edwin, we will be on our way."Jane Wilson opened the door and strode out, leaving Mr. Edwin alone in his office, looking confused and frustrated.He had planned so much for this encounter, but in the end, he couldn't achieve anything.His face contorted with rage as he gritted his teeth and said, "Let me see how you are going to join the A-City dance competition without my help."Mr. Edwin has already made up his mind to work against Jenny Ye while she was outside his training school with Old Ye by the side and Lucy Alloy tagging along."Jenny, I know a good dance coach; why don't I call him over? He stays in the capital," Lucy Alloy suggested, smilingly."No need" Old Ye rejected her immediately without opening any room for negotiation; he didn't want to owe Lucy Alloy any favour.Lucy Alloy gritted her teeth and snorted in anger. "I wasn't talking to you."Just then
Chapter 54: Overprotective Grandpa
Old Ye furrowed his eyebrows; he was pleased with some parts of Lucy's words, but with others, he was dissatisfied.Before he could make a move, Lucy clung to his arm, and Old Ye stiffened.Although in the immortal world, he has many celestial maidens who want to be his dao companions, he has never given them any chance.He dedicated his entire life to studying alchemists and cultivating; he has never had a romantic relationship with any woman; his closeness with a lady was this moment Lucy grabbed his arm.For the first time, Old Ye, who was the Emperor Dao of the immortal world and who could control the wind with a word and create a world with just a wave of his hand, created over two thousand secret realms for fun, became flustered.When Jane Wilson saw their closeness, she felt tightness in her chest, suppressing her jealousy. She said, "Let's go."She got into her car first.Old Ye looked at Lucy with a face filled with anger, but Lucy smiled at him, looking as innocent as possib
Chapter 53: The Little Ancestor
When Lucy heard what Old Ye said, she stood on her feet with a charming smile plastered on her face."Were you listening to me while I was singing?" Lucy asked smilingly.Old Ye shook his head in pity; the little ancestor was truly irredeemable.With his hand inside his pocket, he left the living room, ignoring Lucy, but Lucy didn't give up; she followed him out."Where are you going?" Lucy asked curiously when she saw that Old Ye was going to the back of the house.Old Ye clasped his arms behind his back and continued to keep silent, but Lucy didn't give up; she kept on talking non-stop.Old Ye suddenly stopped walking, and she also stopped. She stared at Old Ye intently; the more she stared at Old Ye's face, the more her eyes glowed."This Lord isn't in the mood to entertain a loquacious guest like you; return inside the house," Old Ye said with a frown on his face. He had never seen someone who pesters like a fly the way Lucy does."You don't need to entertain me; I will be fine if

"Follow me," Old Ye told Hayden, and then he walked into the house. Hayden followed immediately.Old Ye barely took ten steps when he suddenly stopped, turning back. His face became frosty when he realised Lucy was following from behind."Little ancestor, I didn't ask you to come with me; why are you following me?" Old Ye asked coldly as he glared at Lucy.If this little ancestor wasn't his granddaughter's friend, he would have tossed her out of the house; he had never seen someone who made him exasperated as she did.Lucy's face changed drastically, and then her eyes became teary as she asked emotionally, "You just called me an ancestor; am I that old and ugly?"Old Ye snorted in anger; he felt like smacking her death with a palm, but he couldn't, which made him frustrated and irritated.He turned around and strode away, ignoring Lucy, but Lucy didn't give up; she chased after him, saying excitedly, "Hey handsome, you have not told me your name."A strange expression appeared on Hayd
