Ignoring the Han clan chief's bewilderment, the city lord continued to explain to him.
“Our Momo has been loving towards his brothers, uniting his clan, and caring for his friends since he was a child. Everyone in our Yu family, as well as his friends, has never said a bad word about him.”
Si Er couldn't help but steal a glance at the City Lord.
Really? I don't believe it.
Although Brother Yu is indeed a good person, he often complains about him.
I reckon Brother Jun and Brother Quan often complain about him too, because the four of them are such good friends, they hardly ever say anything nice about each other.
Lord of the Imperial City: ...
Ah, after living for so many years, this was the first time he had ever experienced being sabotaged.
The key point is that Si Er undermines others without realizing it, and the City Lord doesn't dare to refute it, so he can only continue to shamelessly promote his son.
"Look at my eldest son, isn't he exceptionally handsome? Standing next to your Xiaoqing, they are a perfect match."
Chief Han felt he had to get to the bottom of this: "Which one is talent and which one is appearance?"
The City Lord said, "Both of them are talented and good-looking. They are also both ice-attribute, so they will definitely have a lot in common when it comes to cultivation in the future."
Chief Han shook his head: "But I don't think it's a good thing that the attributes are the same, as it will easily lead to resource competition in the future."
The city lord said speechlessly, "I would believe it if others said this, but it's not right for Brother Han to say it."
"Um?"
Chief Han was puzzled. How did he suddenly become Brother Han?
"As far as I know, all members of your Han family are of the ice element, and the partners you find are either of the ice or water element."
"Why is it that there was no competition for resources in previous generations, but we're afraid of it now?"
The Han clan chief said calmly, "The Ice Plains is a naturally suitable place for ice-attribute soul cultivators to cultivate. As long as the Ice Plains are not destroyed, we will never lack resources. But your eldest son..."
The city lord clapped his hands: "That's easy, just let him live on the ice plains too, right?"
"Huh?" Chief Han was shocked. "You mean, you want Yu Beimo to marry into our family?"
The city lord laughed and said, "We are all cultivators, so why should we distinguish between marriage and other matters? How they live their lives and where they live their lives are their own business, and I will not interfere too much."
"Brother Han, it doesn't matter whether he marries or marries into the family."
"Anyway, living on the ice plains is beneficial and harmless to Momo, so let him stay there."
Chief Han still couldn't understand: "But he's your eldest son, he shouldn't inherit your mantle..."
The city lord waved his hand: "What do I have here that he can inherit? The position of city lord?"
"Don't be ridiculous. The four border city lords are all appointed based on merit. They can only be appointed by themselves through examinations, not by direct succession."
"Most of the time, the city lord of our Beiye City is chosen from among the Yu family members. But if no one in the Yu family is capable in any generation, then it is possible to choose from other resident families."
“The most outstanding child of our Beiye City generation is not Momo. He doesn’t have this problem at all. He can live wherever he wants.”
Yu Beimo: Although it's the truth, the truth is just so unpleasant to hear.
"As long as he still remembers me and his mother, and knows to bring his partner home to visit during holidays, I will be content."
“I’m usually on the front lines and don’t see him much, so I just let him stay wherever he wants.”
