Chapter 28 Dongyao City

In Dongyao City, the City Lord's Mansion.

City Lord Si looked at the tablet of his deceased wife, recalled the dream of last night, and had a lot of thoughts in his mind.

Soul cultivators don't dream easily, either someone came in their dreams, or they have a warning.

He gently touched his wife's tablet with one hand and whispered, "A Luo, did you come in my dream?"

At this moment, City Lord Si's waist suddenly felt hot. He took out the jade pendant from his waist and saw the message from Si Xu.

It said that Si Ran was not his brother, and his real brother was in Xuanwu Academy.

City Lord Si thought: Could it be that Xiao Xu also had the same dream as him? Or has Xiao Xu already seen the child?

City Lord Si really wanted to go to Central City to take a look, but...

"Second brother! Second brother!"

At this time, the voice of Si Laozi knocking on the door came from outside the room.

The other party even wanted to break in directly, but unfortunately the door was restricted by City Lord Si, and Old Master Si couldn't break it at all.

"Father, what's wrong?"

City Lord Si quickly put away his emotions and walked out to open the door.

As soon as Grandpa Si saw him, he yelled, "What's wrong with Xiao Xu? How can he, as an elder brother, always argue with his younger brother? He even unilaterally canceled the marriage I arranged for him!"

"Does he still take me, his grandfather, seriously?"

"And he has a wood-attributed physique, but he didn't go to the Qinglong Academy that suits him best, but instead went to the declining Xuanwu Academy. He is ruining his own future!"

"How can you, as a father, let him be so willful? I've seen with my own eyes that he is unfilial and unwise!"

City Lord Si's face gradually darkened, "Father, what you said is too much, isn't it? When has Xiao Xu ever been unfilial?"

"He delivers your festival gifts and birthday gifts on time every year, and has never asked you for anything. Unlike Xiao Ran, he has several children from his eldest brother and third brother's families who need your extra support. Is this unfilial?"

"What do you call those kids who take the initiative to ask you for Soul Stone Flowers and often forget to give you holiday gifts? Extremely unfilial? Shameless?"

"How can you say that about your sons and nephews?" Old Master Si was so angry that his beard was shaking. "It's normal for children to have bad memories. I gave them those things voluntarily!"

"Xiao Xu only did a good job on the surface, but he even dared to cancel the engagement I made for him! He..."

"Why can't this engagement be cancelled? Even if Xiao Xu doesn't cancel, I will find a time to cancel it."

When he said this, City Lord Si became even angrier: "Father took advantage of my absence from the city to arrange a marriage for Xiao Xu without authorization, and the one he arranged was such a fickle, arrogant and frivolous person. Why do you have such deep hatred towards Xiao Xu?"

City Lord Si really hated the old man's partiality. Among the three sons, he favored the third son the most, valued the eldest son, and often ignored him.

That was fine, after all, he had been obsessed with cultivation since he was a child, so he didn't care about this. It was just

that when he succeeded the position of city lord, the old man had some hateful people, insisting that the eldest brother was the eldest and the most suitable for the position of city lord, and asked him to give up the position to his eldest brother.

But the city lord is chosen from all the children of the Si family, and the standard is the capable one, not just from the three brothers. Is it his turn to give up the position?

If he gives it up, the position of city lord will belong to the little cousin of the third elder, and his eldest brother will have no chance.

After that, the three brothers each had children, and City Lord Si was ready for the old man to dislike his three children.

After all, the old man doesn't even care about his own son, so how can he care about the other three children?

As a result, the old man especially cares about Si Ran, and always takes sides among the three children, causing Xiaoyi and Xiaoxu to suffer a lot.

Tsk, now that I think about it, the old man really doesn't like his children. I don't know whose wild child Si Ran is.

City Lord Si didn't want to think too much, but when he thought of Si Ran's face that looked a bit like his own, he guessed that Si Ran's father was also a member of the Si family, and it was even possible that he was from their family!

Although the eldest brother was mediocre in talent, he was a good person and would not do such a thing. But the third brother who always felt that he had stolen his things...

City Lord Si quietly clenched his fists. If it was really the third brother who did it, then this city lord's mansion could no longer let their family live there.

Old Master Si didn't know what City Lord Si was thinking, and he was still talking about Si Xu's faults.

"Xiao Xu is inferior to Xiao Ran in every way. He is so thoughtful and scheming, and he can't stand his younger brother being better than himself. He..."

"Enough!" City Lord Si couldn't help but say in a low voice, "It's still uncertain whether Si Ran is my son!"

"What are you talking about?" Old Master Si almost fainted from anger, "Xiao Ran is also your son, how can you be so partial!"

"..."

How dare you ask this, old man?

City Lord Si took a deep breath and said, "Xiaoyi and Xiao Xu's eyebrows and eyes are very much like A'luo, but Si Ran doesn't have a single place similar to A'luo."

He couldn't directly say that the news was provided by Si Xu. The old man didn't believe anything Si Xu said. He would only say that Si Xu was jealous of his younger brother and wanted to destroy him.

"Over the years, I have been investigating A'luo's premature birth, and I found out that Si Ran might not be A'luo and I's child. Our real child should be in Central City now."

"As for Si Ran, he might be the third brother's child..."

"You, you, you..." Old Master Si kept saying "you" for a long time, but couldn't say a word to refute.

Because he knew that what City Lord Si said was very likely to be true.

His youngest son has always been a playboy, and he once had a confidante who looked 50% similar to Si Ran.

Old Master Si had noticed it a long time ago, and was afraid that this matter would cause a quarrel between the second and third sons, so he had been pretending to be deaf and dumb.

But he also felt that it was pitiful that Si Ran could not live with his parents, so he took better care of Si Ran. After all, Si Yi and Si Xu had their biological father to love them.

Although City Lord Si spends most of his time fighting evil beasts outside the city due to his duties, and can only come back a few times a year, and can only stay for a few days each time. Although

Third Master Si often hangs around at home and clearly shows his preference for Si Ran, Old Master Si feels that his Third Master and his grandson Si Ran are both wronged.

But if they really let the father and son recognize each other, Old Master Si would not dare.

So he put on a loving smile and said to City Lord Si: "Second brother, Dongyao City is one of the important defense lines of the Ten Thousand Beasts Continent. As the city lord of Dongyao City, you can't leave this city easily!"

"How about this, I'll just go to the Central City, and you can stay here with peace of mind..."

City Lord Si interrupted him directly: "I will use my soul clone to go there, I must see the child with my own eyes."

The soul clone is a kind of clone unique to Soul Emperor masters. First, a puppet of your favorite is refined from special materials and your own blood essence. When you need to use the clone, you split half of your soul and enter the puppet.

The process of splitting the soul is undoubtedly painful, and it also has a certain damage to his spiritual power.

But as the city lord of Dongyao City, as long as the evil beasts are not exterminated, he has to stay here forever.

As a father, he must figure out who his own child is and make up for his real child.

In the central city, Si Er, who was decorating his own courtyard, sneezed several times in a row. He felt that many people had been talking about him these two days.

Are the villagers from the small mountain village back? They would be worried if they couldn't see the original owner, right?

Fortunately, they have a short vacation after the first course, and they can rent the fastest mount in the academy to go back home.

He has to think carefully and buy some suitable gifts, and then go back to see everyone.

After all, without them, the original owner would have starved to death.
