“Sister!” the Dao Child of the Demon Clan called out.
Gu Chaoyan felt a wave of exasperation as she faced him.
“Sister, I just wanted to let you know that Brother will be back tomorrow,” the Dao Child of the Demon Clan conveyed the information with the enthusiasm of sharing excellent news.
‘Brother?’
This Dao Child had an older brother?
“Okay,” Gu Chaoyan replied, maintaining a composed demeanor.
The Dao Child of the Demon Clan seemed a bit taken aback by her response, then tilted his head and departed.
Only after his departure did the Dragonman cautiously emerge from the blanket. In the Dao Child of Demon Clan’s presence, it had hidden, unwilling to expose itself.
“The Dao Child of Demon Clan has a brother? Who is his brother?” Gu Chaoyan inquired.
The Dragonman had acquired considerable knowledge about the Demon Clan from its father, including details about significant figures within the clan. Gu Chaoyan hoped to determine if the Dragonman was familiar with this individual.
“It’s also the Dao Child of the Demon Clan,” the Dragonman responded.
Another Dao Child of Demon Clan?
Wasn’t the Dao Child of Demon Clan a unique position? Why did his brother also hold the same t.i.tle?
“The Dao Child is a position within the Demon Clan, pa.s.sed down to the next generation. Typically, the successor to the Dao Child of the Demon Clan is also a cultivation prodigy. So, the status of the Dao Child of the Demon Clan remains prestigious within the Demon Clan. The previous Dao Child of the Demon Clan had two sons, making both of them Dao Children of the Demon Clan,” the Dragonman explained with an expression that hinted at recollections from the past.
Gu Chaoyan recognized the reminiscent expression on the Dragonman’s face, mirroring the way its father spoke about the Dao Child of the Demon Clan.
The Dragonman had never explicitly discussed its father, but Gu Chaoyan understood the unspoken yearning. In occasional conversations recounting its father’s past teachings, the Dragonman revealed a silent longing for its absent parent.
“I see,” Gu Chaoyan acknowledged before drifting into sleep.
The next day…
A knock echoed through the door, prompting Gu Chaoyan’s immediate a.s.sumption that it was the Dao Child of the Demon Clan.
Opening the door, she observed him closely.
Then, she took another look.
The Dao Child of the Demon Clan appeared strangely unpredictable.
Yesterday, he had been full of enthusiasm, but today, his countenance resembled that of a stoic specter.
Moreover, she was adorned in the black robe and the eyeball necklace he had given her.
Upon seeing him, Gu Chaoyan lifted her hand and lightly slapped his forehead. “Don’t you think you look good? Why the cold expression today?”
“If you persist, I might accidentally misplace the necklace,” Gu Chaoyan warned.
The Dao Child of the Demon Clan appeared somewhat uneasy.
Once again, the Clan Leader had mistaken him for his younger brother.
The Clan Leader consistently displayed this confusion, unable to distinguish between the two siblings. Moreover, he never made an effort to differentiate them.
Regardless of whether it was him or his younger brother, they were both treated like children.
Despite holding the esteemed position of the Dao Child of the Demon Clan, he found himself subjected to her blows and admonishments.
Initially harboring doubts, the recent palm strike and the mistaken ident.i.ty now cast a shadow on his suspicions about the authenticity of the Clan Leader.
“You look good,” the Dao Child of the Demon Clan conceded reluctantly.
Gu Chaoyan’s brow furrowed slightly.
She removed the necklace.
This presented an opportune moment to refrain from wearing the unsettling accessory.
