“Good question.” The Lion King smacked down with his foot. “This question… I don’t know the answer either!”
“Ah?” Su Luo's face went blank.
“After graduating, the City Lord’s disciples were dispatched elsewhere. Once they left, they never returned…” The Lion King’s eyes were squinting halfway and sparkling with the excitement of gossip. “I have my reasons to suspect that those disciples are all helping the City Lord find someone!”
‘Find someone?’
Su Luo’s heart suddenly thumped.
Who else could the City Lord be looking for? It definitely had to be her mother, who was a great romantic.
At this time, the Lion King watched Su Luo with bright and shiny eyes, staring at her until she felt scared.
“You’re very curious as to how this old man was able to figure out your identity, right?” The Lion King asked, feeling immensely proud of himself.
“I am indeed curious.” Su Luo remembered that when she came in, she had not said a word. Yet the Lion King’s eyes lit up straight away when he saw her, and he treated her extremely well.
“Actually, I’ve seen you before.” The Lion King gazed into the distance. He thought for a moment before saying, “That was a matter from a very, very long time ago. At the time, you were still in an egg.”
“Pu!”
Su Luo choked on her saliva!
Egg… Egg… Inside an egg???
She was inside an egg???
Su Luo stared at the Lion King with wide eyes. She seemed to have become a bit like a fool and had totally forgotten how she should respond. This piece of information was truly too shocking!
However, the Lion King spoke as if it was undoubtedly right: “What’s strange about that? When normal fetuses are born, they’re in human form. However, you’re the fetus of an ancient deity—one that took several hundred years of incubation before finally emerging. So how could you possibly be the same as normal people?”
Su Luo: “…”
“I… was really hatched from an egg?” Su Luo was truly made speechless by this question.
“Can this be faked?” The Lion King said with an air of complacency. “When your mother came to see the City Lord back then, she was carrying a cradle, and inside that cradle was you as an egg.”
Su Luo: “…”
“How long ago did that happen?” Su Luo put a hand to her forehead.
This matter was too shocking for her, and she truly was somewhat at a loss as to how to react.
“Very long ago… Too long ago that I can’t remember clearly. In any case, it hasn’t been that long since you broke out from the deity’s egg.”
Su Luo: “…”
Getting to the bottom of the matter, Su Luo wondered if perhaps either her father or mother was a super powerful immemorial beast deity that transformed and had her? Otherwise, how did she become an immemorial deity’s fetus? What a wonderfully mysterious matter this was.
While Su Luo was speaking with the Lion King, the Fourth Elder had been present the whole time.
He was puzzled by what he heard, feeling like his head was amidst the clouds and mist. Nevertheless, he managed to accurately pick out the main point.
‘Su Luo… The City Lord… Adopted daughter…’
“Y-You… You’re truly the City Lord’s adopted daughter?” The Fourth Elder pointed at Su Luo with shaking legs.
The City Lord had many batches of disciples. Since he had so many of them, he never really cherished them. However, he only had one adopted daughter!
“I said it early on, but you didn’t believe me.” Su Luo had on an innocent face as she spread open her hands in a shrug.
The Fourth Elder almost spat out blood. ‘Who would believe you just because you say it?’
It took him this whole time to realize the reason why the Lion King treated Su Luo so well was the old man’s discerning eyes. He had managed to figure out Su Luo’s identity with one glance.
Furthermore… she’s… an immemorial deity’s fetus!!!
The Lion King said to the Fourth Elder, “Take your leave first.”
