Lan Yan's face darkened instantly, and he asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?"
Lan Yan's expression suddenly changed from sunny to gloomy, which frightened everyone. They returned to the silence where you could hear a pin drop, and looked at Lan Yanfeng, waiting for his answer.
Lan Yanfeng replied seriously, "A couple of days ago, I happened to hear from Ou Jingyao that a girl with purple eyes appeared in Lanxuan City, so I sent someone to investigate. The girl is fifteen years old this year, her name is Lan Ziye, also known as Lan Twelve Young Master, the Street King of Nanwang Street. She's quite powerful and well-known on the black market. The key is that every time she kills a monster, her dark pupils turn purple." After a pause, seeing Lan Yan's shocked face, Lan Yanfeng continued, "I just received news that Lan Twelve Young Master had accepted a mission to kill monsters, so I didn't come to the meeting and went to stake out. Sure enough, I saw that Lan Twelve Young Master was quick and accurate, and his pupils turned purple when he killed monsters!"
"That's right! In the entire Lanxuan Continent, apart from the daughter of my Lan family, who else could have purple eyes? Thousands of years ago, purple eyes were the symbol of the head of the family, and they were extremely noble!" Lan Yan finalized by slamming the table.
"But... whose child is this?" Lan Yi looked around at his eight brothers cautiously and spoke.
According to the Lan family genealogy, only legitimate descendants of the Lan family could give birth to a daughter with purple eyes, a symbol of the Lan family's purest bloodline. Therefore, to ensure the birth of a daughter with purple eyes, they married young ladies from aristocratic families with special abilities, and would never waste their energy on ordinary women. But the question is, where did this girl come from? Could she have sprung from a crack in a rock?
"Tell me, whose child is this? Who made my granddaughter wandering outside for more than ten years?" Lan Yan's face darkened again, and the atmosphere instantly reached freezing point.
Everyone looked at Lan Yi with resentment. What a mess! Now the old man is unhappy again? →_→
Lan Bing was the smartest one, and he said, "It doesn't matter whose child it is. What matters is that Zi Tong, with the surname Lan, must be the daughter of our Lan family. Dad, we should take that girl back home as soon as possible!"
Lan Ding rolled his eyes and agreed, "Yeah! Xiao Yeye has suffered so much outside for so many years. We can't let her live outside anymore!"
"Dad, if no one claims to own it, just put it under my name. Just treat this daughter as mine. I will definitely treat her a thousand times better than I treat those brats!" Lan Wu interrupted with great righteousness.
As soon as these words came out, they were instantly met with contempt from everyone. Everyone knew that this suddenly appearing granddaughter would be a hot commodity in the future. This Lan Laowu really knew how to take advantage of others. →_→
As expected, Lan Jia said with a dark face, "This little girl was discovered by my Feng'er, so naturally she should be enrolled in the name of my eldest wife. Besides, how could such a precious little girl not be enrolled in the name of my eldest wife and given the most honorable status?"
"Okay, let's talk about these things after we meet that girl. Let's go!" Lan Yan said majestically as he walked out of the meeting room.
Everyone looked at Lan Yan's back in shock. The eldest brother, Lan Jia, spoke first, "Dad, are you going there in person?"
Lan Yan turned around and gave Lan Jia a cold look: "For such a big matter, do you think I can not personally take action?"
Lan Jia shrank his neck and dared not say anything. This matter was indeed big enough!
