Shi Hao: Your daughter is adorable, and she's my wife now.

"Wait... what are you doing? You cannot disturb the Master." Seeing the Fire Emperor about to hit Shi Hao, the Vermilion Bird quickly stepped in to stop him. She wasn't worried that the Fire Emperor would hurt Shi Hao, but rather afraid that he might be accidentally injured by the Master.

After all, he was the father of the child who had kissed the Master, and he was also the Human Emperor of the country she protected.

The Vermilion Bird couldn't let anything happen to him.

Although both were at the Peak of the Venerable Realm, having practiced Dual Cultivation with Shi Hao, she had already stepped one foot into the Divine Fire Realm.

Stopping the Fire Emperor was an easy task.

The Fire Emperor, blocked by the Vermilion Bird, was now fuming with rage, his rationality long gone.

"Listen to me, it is your daughter's fortune to be with the Master. Behind the Master is an incredibly powerful Senior backing him. With this child following the Master, achieving Immortal Ascension in the future will be no problem. Do you really want to stop your daughter from achieving Immortal Ascension?" The Vermilion Bird kindly reminded the Fire Emperor.

Unfortunately, the Fire Emperor, currently in a fit of rage, couldn't listen at all.

Seeing his refusal to listen, the Vermilion Bird could only sigh and shake her head.

"Calm down." After speaking, she directly suppressed the Fire Emperor and then bound him with a Formation.

Just as she finished, Shi Hao also released Fire Spirit, whose face was flushed red from being kissed in his arms.

Fire Spirit's mind was currently in a daze; she had just been forcibly kissed, and by a man she was meeting for the first time.

And it was right in front of her father.

Looking at the dazed Fire Spirit and the ferocious-looking Fire Emperor opposite him, the corner of Shi Hao's mouth curled into a smile. "As expected of my wife, truly cute." Shi Hao pushed Fire Spirit toward the Vermilion Bird and then looked at the bound Fire Emperor.

"What do you mean your daughter? She is clearly my wife. It's only natural for me to kiss my own wife. I won't just kiss her; I want her to bear me many big, healthy children."

"Bastard! You dare! I won't let you get away with this!" The Fire Emperor looked at Fire Spirit, struggling desperately to break free from the restraints, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free at all.

"She's my wife, why wouldn't I dare?" Shi Hao wasn't lying; Fire Spirit was originally his wife, he was just being intimate with his wife ahead of time.

Besides, didn't you, Old Fogey, support it quite a bit?

In the original work, this Old Fogey couldn't wait for him to marry Fire Spirit.

"She is my daughter!" the Fire Emperor roared.

"What daughter? She's clearly my wife." Shi Hao didn't want to waste more words with the Old Fogey.

"I'm taking Ling'er away. Next time, when she's pregnant, I'll bring her back to visit you." After Shi Hao finished speaking, he turned and went to the Vermilion Bird's side, preparing to leave with her and Fire Spirit.

Unexpectedly, in the next second...

A powerful aura suddenly erupted from Fire Spirit's body, directly shaking off both the Vermilion Bird and Shi Hao.

This scene shocked both the Vermilion Bird and Shi Hao, and even the Fire Emperor was the same.

"Master? This isn't right." The Vermilion Bird looked at Shi Hao.

A serious expression appeared on Shi Hao's face. Seeing the power radiating that was no weaker than Fire Spirit's own, Shi Hao prepared to act.

"Big Scoundrel! What did you do to my Father Emperor?" Suddenly, Fire Spirit opened her eyes, her round face flushed red with anger.

"Apologize to Father Emperor, or else don't even think about touching me again, and I won't bear any babies for you." Fire Spirit's sudden change left the Fire Emperor stunned.

Even the Vermilion Bird and Shi Hao were the same.

"Wait? You saw the future too?" Shi Hao suddenly thought of something and looked at Fire Spirit with a face full of surprise.

"Hmph! What do you think? You Big Scoundrel." Fire Spirit gave Shi Hao a bashful and annoyed glare, then hurriedly went to her father's side and reached out to release the restraints on him.

"Wait... Ling'er, how did you see the future too?" Shi Hao came to Ling'er's side. He hadn't expected Fire Spirit, like the Willow Deity, to be able to see a glimpse of the future.

"You playboy, you're so wicked." Looking at Shi Hao, Fire Spirit thought of herself in the future she saw, and the countless women around Shi Hao.

This guy actually married so many women, and even more outrageously, he made her bear so many babies.

"Ling'er, what's wrong with you?" Looking at his daughter's appearance, the Fire Emperor felt she was a bit unfamiliar. Was this his daughter?

"It's nothing, I just saw some images I shouldn't have seen." Fire Spirit didn't know how to explain it to her father.

She hadn't expected that she really was this Big Scoundrel's wife. After being kissed by Shi Hao just now...

She was instantly transported to a vast white space. Inside, she saw her entire life, from birth to growing up, then meeting Shi Hao, eventually falling in love with him, and also seeing everything that man carried on his shoulders.

The memories in her mind made her feel as if she had experienced it all personally. Her previous resistance to Shi Hao now felt natural and justified.

"Big Scoundrel, you... did you come back just to bully me?" Thinking of the images of Shi Hao fighting the Eerie Army alone, her heart, which originally wanted to complain, suddenly softened.

She could only ask him why he wanted to bully her as soon as he returned.

"You saw the future... then you should know that you are the closest to me! If I don't come to bully you first, who else can I bully? The Willow Deity? Did you see her?" Shi Hao tried to ask Fire Spirit.

"Ah? You bullied Lady Willow Deity too?" Fire Spirit's eyes widened as she looked at Shi Hao.

"It seems you didn't see everything, did you? I've confirmed it; what you saw were the images from the last time. You haven't seen the latest one, and neither has the Willow Deity." Thinking of this, Shi Hao smiled.

"In other words, in the future, as long as he saw Qing Yi, Yue Chan, the Witch, and the others, he just needed to kiss them a few times, and they would be able to see themselves in the original plot development."

This would save him a lot of trouble.

"Big Scoundrel, you really did that to Lady Willow Deity?" Fire Spirit looked at Shi Hao in disbelief.

"You'll know when you see the Willow Deity. Since you've seen our future, I don't need to go through so much trouble. Explain things clearly to your Father Emperor, and then follow me back to Shi Village."

"I'll have the Willow Deity help you with a Baptism and boost your strength while I'm at it." After Shi Hao instructed Fire Spirit, he took the Vermilion Bird and left the courtyard, letting Fire Spirit say her goodbyes to her father.

"I know, then wait for me outside for a bit." Watching Shi Hao leave, Fire Spirit turned back to her shocked father.

She then began to explain. After explaining to her father for an hour...

"That's how it is. I can't say more about what follows, as it involves great figures. It's better if you know less, Father Emperor. Don't worry, the Big Scoundrel is very good to me. Also, after Lady Willow Deity helps me with the Baptism, I'll come back to visit you. If you miss me, you can also come to Shi Village to find me. I'll tell you where Shi Village is." After Fire Spirit told her father the location of Shi Village...

After saying a few more simple things, she brought her father out.

Shi Hao, waiting outside, looked at the father and daughter coming out, then looked at the Fire Emperor. Under Fire Spirit's watchful eye, he bowed and apologized to the Fire Emperor.

"Shi Village welcomes your arrival." Finally, Shi Hao welcomed the Fire Emperor to visit Shi Village.

"Alright, Father Emperor, the Big Scoundrel has apologized, so I'm going back with him." After saying that, Fire Spirit came to Shi Hao's side and took the initiative to hug him.

Seeing this, the Vermilion Bird also revealed her true form and then carried Shi Hao and Fire Spirit back to Shi Village.

Looking at his departing daughter, the Fire Emperor's face still showed he couldn't keep his composure.

His precious daughter just ran off with a man she met for the first time. Goddamn Shi Hao!

Please keep reading. The trial starts tomorrow, and I really want to advance.
