As the saying goes, “Shame should not be exposed outside the family,” and the Dragon Ancestor God also did not want this matter to be known by too many members of the Dragon Clan.
He needed some time to digest everything slowly.
After all, this was quite unexpected for him. As the Dragon Ancestor God himself, how could his own son be so hideously ugly?
If he at least resembled a phoenix, that would be one thing, but the truth was he was nowhere near as majestic as a phoenix. If he looked somewhat like a member of the Dragon Clan, that would also be acceptable, but the fact was, from head to toe, he didn’t resemble either in the slightest.
“Ooooo-kaaa!”
The chick nestled in the woman’s arms softly crowed, seemingly savoring the moment, though he hadn’t forgotten his agreement with his big brother.
This performance had to continue.
Zi Feng gently stroked the chick’s head and turned to Lin Fan, saying, “Thank you for bringing my child back.”
Zi Feng knew her son had been in the Xuan Huang Realm, and now that he had returned, it was something she had never dared to imagine.
She had originally thought she might never see him again in this lifetime, so naturally, she was overjoyed to see him now.
Back then, she had been summoned from the Xuan Huang Realm by the Dragon Ancestor God, at a great personal cost.
Lin Fan smiled calmly, “No need to thank me. I’ve known the chick for a long time, and helping him reunite with his family is only natural.”
“Chick? Is my son’s name really Chick?”
“Ooooo-kaaa!”
The chick crowed once more, clearly showing his approval of the name.
“If my son likes it, then we won’t change it,” Zi Feng said, seeing her son’s delight and deciding not to argue further.
For Zi Feng, being reunited with her child was already a tremendous joy; she had no room for other concerns.
However, the Dragon Ancestor God found this hard to accept. As the son of the Dragon Ancestor God, how could he bear such a ridiculous name? Wasn’t that embarrassing?
But looking at the current situation, it was clearly not his decision to make. He figured that if he even uttered a single word of objection, he might be swarmed and beaten up.
“Everyone, disperse,” the Dragon Ancestor God waved his sleeve, signaling for everyone to leave.
This was a family matter, and he certainly didn’t want so many fellow dragons watching.
For the members of the Dragon Clan, today’s events were rather complicated.
That creature, looking like a chicken, was actually the descendant of the Dragon Ancestor God—something that would be hard to believe if told to others.
“Zi Feng, let’s go back first and talk more,” the Dragon Ancestor God said gently.
The events of today had been quite a shock for him. He hadn’t been prepared for this child to show up so suddenly, and now he was at a loss about what to do.
Dragon Ancestor Tower.
The Dragon Ancestor God and Zi Feng sat there, while the chick was lovingly held in Zi Feng’s arms, never out of her sight.
Lin Fan sat below, deep in thought, wondering what to do next.
The purpose of bringing Chick to the Dragon Clan this time was to get some Sun Pill treasures.
But now, Chick’s identity had exceeded Lin Fan’s expectations. The Dragon Ancestor God was Chick’s father—this was going to be a massive scam.
“Cough, cough!”
At this moment, the Dragon Ancestor God lightly coughed, wanting to say something, but he couldn’t find the right words.
For the Dragon Ancestor God, the current situation was confusing—was it something to laugh or cry about?
Seeing how doting Zi Feng was on the child, the Dragon Ancestor God felt a sense of crisis creeping into his life.
“Why still can’t my son speak?” Zi Feng gently stroked the chick’s head, asking with some confusion.
“Here, my son, swallow this, and you’ll be able to speak.”
Zi Feng then took out a pill. Though not a miraculous divine pill, it was made from rare ingredients and primarily served to awaken intelligence and grant the ability to speak human language.
The chick swallowed the pill in one go, and immediately his entire body burst into flames.
Zi Feng gently caressed the flames, completely unbothered.
“Ooooo… Mama!”
Suddenly, the chick spoke, and with that one word, he made Zi Feng’s heart bloom with joy and happiness.
At this moment, Lin Fan remained silent, knowing that now was Chick’s time to perform.
Whatever he said would be useless; it was up to Chick to carry on the act.
“Dad!”
The chick spread his wings and rushed toward the Dragon Ancestor God. The Dragon Ancestor awkwardly embraced him, his face full of disdain. If Zi Feng hadn’t been there, he might have thrown the chick away.
“Hmph!”
Seeing the Dragon Ancestor God’s expression, Zi Feng raised her eyebrows and gave a cold snort, clearly signaling, “You know what to do.”
Seeing Zi Feng’s expression, the Dragon Ancestor God awkwardly patted the chick’s head, “Good… good boy…”
“Dad, Mom, Chick has finally seen you two! When I opened my eyes in the Xuan Huang Realm, only my big brother was there to protect me. Later, my big brother told me you two were in the Upper Realm, so all these years, Chick has endured many hardships and suffered many injuries.”
“Every time I was in danger, I would think that as long as Chick improved his cultivation, I could go to the Upper Realm to find you two.”
“Every time I thought about that, Chick felt full of strength.”
…
Now that Chick could speak, these words moved everyone to stunned silence.
Even Lin Fan was somewhat shocked.
Since when had this chick become such a smooth talker, and not only that, but his words were actually touching?
“My child, it’s all Mama’s fault. I let you suffer so much,” Zi Feng said, clearly moved by Chick’s words.
“Mama, I’m hungry,” Chick said.
“Oh, my child is hungry. Mama will prepare something for you right away,” Zi Feng hurriedly replied.
“No, I want pills. I want lots and lots of Sun Pills,” Chick coquettishly said.
At this moment, Lin Fan, upon hearing Chick’s words, immediately straightened his expression—this was the key part.
“My child, what kind of pills do you want?” Zi Feng asked.
“Sun Pills! I want lots and lots of Sun Pills!” Chick replied.
“Alright, alright. Later we’ll go to your father’s treasure vault. Whatever my son likes, you can take it,” Zi Feng lovingly said.
“This…” The Dragon Ancestor God’s expression changed upon hearing this, showing some reluctance.
“What? Are you unwilling or something? If you can’t afford it, I’ll take my son back to the Phoenix Clan. I’m sure many people would be willing to help raise him,” Zi Feng coldly said.
“No, no, that’s not what I meant,” the Dragon Ancestor God quickly replied.
“Oh, Mama, Dad, I also have three sons. One of them eats even more than me and needs a lot of food,” Chick added.
“What!” Both Zi Feng and the Dragon Ancestor God were stunned for a moment, then Zi Feng joyfully said, “Quickly, bring them out for Mama to see!”
At this moment, the Dragon Ancestor God was also excited. Thinking about it, his own son looked nothing like him, so surely his grandsons would resemble him more.
But for the Dragon Ancestor God, this change was just too sudden.
Without warning, he had gained a son and even three grandsons.
This was just too much.
Lin Fan hesitated. Would Zi Feng and the Dragon Ancestor God really want to meet Chick’s three monstrous sons? He could only hope they wouldn’t be too shocked afterward.
