Urban Immortal Cultivation Supreme

Bufan is definitely not the kind of person to compromise.

"Look, uncle, what era are we in that we still use letters?" Bufan sneered, "Don't try to fool me with just a piece of paper, I'm not that easy to deceive."

Mi Tao didn't care about Bufan's attitude at all, and continued with a slight smile: "Bufan, marrying my daughter would actually bring you a lot of benefits. Why do you keep refusing?"

Bufan was stunned; he thought Mi Tao would pressure him with his identity, but he didn't.

However, if Mi Tao really chose to do that, there would absolutely be no room for further discussion.

"Benefits? What benefits could there be? Haven't the Mi Family tricked me enough? Tell me! What are you planning to trick me with this time?" Bufan said with keen interest.

"Hehe, Bufan, that's not trickery! That's mutual benefit," Mi Tao chuckled.

Bufan's mouth twitched uncontrollably, damn it, that old man Mi planned against me step by step, and now you're trying to trick me after your grandfather did. You must think I'm easy to fool.

At this moment, Bufan felt like walking up to Mi Tao, slapping him twice, and then shouting at him: "Hey! Old boy, I risked my life to get that bone for you on Iron Coffin Mountain, going through life and death, and you can't even throw a banquet for me in a five-star hotel to welcome me back. Now you want to trick me again, do you really think I'm a fool?"

Bufan despised Mi Tao in his heart.

"Really! Mutual benefit, huh? I am almost losing my life for this, although my life might not be worth much money, it is priceless to me," Bufan replied.

"Yes, your life is priceless. But let me tell you, there will be no danger this time. Look at how old you are now, still single. I'm offering you a free wife, aren't you happy? Besides, marrying my daughter, you can also inherit my fortune. And having me as your father-in-law, who is so capable, just think about it, isn't it a worthwhile deal? Why wouldn't you want it?" Mi Tao persuasively said.

"Hehe, very worthwhile! Worthwhile to the extent that I have to sacrifice my body to save your daughter, very worthwhile indeed!" Bufan mocked.

"..." Mi Tao.

Mi Tao was speechless. What do you mean by sacrificing your body? A grown man like you claiming to 'sacrifice your body'—my daughter marrying you would be the real sacrifice!

If it weren't for your Pure Yin constitution, would a person of my status talk to you so humbly?

"Bufan, you have to understand the feelings of a father! If you were a father right now, could you bear to watch your daughter leave you just like that?" Mi Tao's face was filled with pain, looking like he could burst into tears at any moment.

"Playing the emotional card with me?" Bufan thought to himself.

"Ah, Uncle Mi! You have to understand me, the younger generation too! Look at your daughter's icy face; I'm afraid I'd freeze to death if I even come close. And then, her mother is from the Demonized Organization, isn't there any heritage? Marrying your daughter, I'd have to live in fear every day, risking losing my life or ending up in an empty home," Bufan said with an awkward, distressed, and helpless expression.

Mi Tao frowned deeply.

"This little guy is definitely cunning," Mi Tao thought to himself.

However, Zhu Bufan did make a valid point, which was that the Demonized Organization would target the Mi Family because of Mi Cai's excessively special physique.

Mi Tao regretted saying some truths to Zhu Bufan back then; he should have completely made up a lie instead! Why didn't he just tell the entire set of lies? Mi Tao suddenly felt utterly depressed.

Looking at Mi Tao's deeply furrowed brow.

Zhu Bufan thought to himself, "Do you really think I'm a fool? Joking, I certainly know that not only do you see me as a life-saving remedy, but you also want me to be your daughter's free bodyguard, haha..."

"Is that so?! Uncle Mi, Zhu Bufan is timid, so I'm afraid this isn't going to work," Zhu Bufan continued.

Mi Tao's brow was tightly locked, but it relaxed after a moment.

Initially, Zhu Bufan was pleased to see Mi Tao's eyebrows furrowed, but then he saw them relax again, which made him internally exclaim in dismay.

"Zhu Bufan, I forgot to tell you one thing," Mi Tao said with a smile.

Zhu Bufan suddenly felt uneasy.

"Your parents, I've already sent someone to pick them up. I've informed them that you and my daughter are engaged, and I am bringing them here to hold a grand engagement banquet in their presence," Mi Tao said with narrowed eyes, a scheming triumphant look on his face.

"Damn it, you old rascal, this is so unprincipled! I, the person concerned, have not agreed, and you just go ahead with it, acting first and reporting later? I won't go; what can you do to me?" Zhu Bufan thought to himself.

"Ha ha, Zhu Bufan! I know what you're thinking. You must be thinking, 'I won't go that day.' I advise you not to do that because I have already widely publicized this in your area. Your three aunts, eight great-aunts, distant cousins, even the old yellow dog at your uncle's house know about your engagement. Think about it, if you don't show up, the engagement won't happen. It might not matter to you, but have you thought about your parents? They are quite old now, what do they care about the most? It's their reputation! Not showing up would completely ruin it," Mi Tao said slowly.

"Of course, you might ask if the Mi Family isn't afraid of losing face? Let me tell you, you will be disappointed because if you don't show up that day, I will immediately hold a press conference claiming that this was all deliberately done to slander the Mi Family. By then, your own parents will be even more ashamed! Zhu Bufan, don't think that Uncle Mi is threatening you; it's just that Uncle Mi has no choice. If Mi'er cannot be with you, she has less than a year left. Right now, she doesn't even know about this herself. I hope you can understand Uncle Mi's desperation," Mi Tao said.

Initially, Zhu Bufan was ready to explode in anger, his Achilles' heel being his parents. He couldn't forgive Mi Tao for using his parents as a threat, and moreover, Zhu Bufan was not one to be intimidated by threats.

But by the end, Zhu Bufan genuinely felt the heart of a father who, for his own child, felt helpless, pained, resolute, and reckless of consequences.

Zhu Bufan believed that if it were him, his own parents would do the same.

In an instant, Zhu Bufan felt immense sympathy for Mi Tao.

"I agree to marry your daughter! But..." Zhu Bufan slowly said.
