Recently, there has been an unprecedented stir in the city, and the level of discussion is even higher than before.

"Hey, have you heard? The Wolf King has adopted a goddaughter." A falcon cultivator said excitedly, with a gossipy gleam in his eyes.

"Isn't it just adopting a goddaughter? What's the big deal?" The snake cultivator who was listening responded indifferently.

"Do you know who he recognized?" Monk Falcon deliberately kept people in suspense and didn't say anything clearly.

"Who is it? Your wife?" the snake monk joked.

"Go to hell! You little alchemist!" Falcon Xiu revealed the answer with great interest.

The other demon beast cultivators in the surrounding area immediately pricked up their ears and listened to their conversation attentively.

"Really? Impossible!" The snake cultivator's eyes widened instantly, and his pupils became straight with shock.

"It's absolutely true. My friend works at the Wolf King's Mansion. He said it himself that the young alchemist is living in the mansion now." Falcon Xiu had a very genuine expression on his face, and his eyes revealed a bit of pride that he was the first to know it.

Lu Xiu, who was eavesdropping on the side, couldn't help but join in and questioned, "But the young alchemist is from the fox clan, how could he recognize the wolf king as his father? The wolf clan and the fox clan are not on good terms, so why would the fox clan agree?"

"That's right, if this is the case, the two tribes will definitely fight each other." The other cultivators couldn't help but join in the gossip.

"Hey! You don't believe it? I guarantee with my life that it is indeed true. It will spread all over the city in two days." Falcon Xiu said in a firm tone, as if it was up to you to believe it or not.

It’s no wonder that people don’t believe it, but the wolf and fox tribes have been fighting each other fiercely in recent years.

It turned out that after the fox tribe knew that the wolf king had brought back a human woman, he made her his queen, making the fox tribe a laughing stock again.

So, the fox tribe settled all the old and new grudges and kept writing letters to the city lord to target the wolf tribe.

The wolf tribe was not willing to be outdone, and the two tribes were basically in a tit-for-tat state on many issues.

The relationship between the two tribes became increasingly worse, reaching a critical point.

That day, Ji Yunchen saw that it was getting late, so he sent someone to the Wolf King's Mansion to pick up the person, but he never expected to be rejected by the people in the palace.

Because the wolf and fox tribes are not on good terms, he will not go to these two palaces alone, and will ask them to come to the City Lord's Mansion if there is anything.

One reason is that it is too troublesome. If you go to one store, you have to go to the other store as well, which shows fairness.

Secondly, if he went, this one would ask for another one, which really gave him a headache.

Thinking that she was detained by the Wolf King, Shen Rui was planning to go to her house in person to ask for her release, so he came in person.

"City Lord." Shen Rui saluted and said respectfully.

"Why did the Wolf King come to see me so late?" Ji Yunchen said lightly.

"I came here this time to thank the city lord for saving my daughter's life." After saying that, Shen Rui bowed deeply to him.

Ji Yunchen was stunned for a moment, then frowned slightly, not understanding what he was singing about.

"When did this city lord save your daughter?"

"Xiao Wu is my daughter," Shen Rui said with a cheerful smile, and then said, "My daughter has settled down in the palace. I was afraid that you might be worried, so I came here to let you know."

"Xiaowu is your daughter?" Ji Yunchen stared at Shen Rui sharply.

Shen Rui is a wolf monster, and Xiao Wu is a completely human being. How could she be the daughter of the Wolf King?

Could it be that the Wolf King wanted to use this opportunity to detain Xiao Wu? Alchemists are truly sought after.

Ji Yunchen narrowed his eyes and said in a bad tone, "Wolf King, do you think this city lord is easy to fool?"

"Well, it's my fault for not explaining clearly. I picked up Xiaowu when she was a child and adopted her for five years. Half a year ago, I sent her to a sect in Cangxuan Continent to study and cultivate. Unexpectedly, an accident happened and she appeared in this world. I only found out she was here today." Shen Rui explained.

Then he added, "I heard her say that you rescued her outside the city, and that you brought her to the Wolf King's Mansion today. Her mother couldn't bear to leave her, so she asked me to come back to you."

Hearing this, Ji Yunchen pondered the credibility of these words, as if it were really true.

Shen Rui was afraid that he wouldn't believe it, so he continued, "If you don't believe me, City Lord, I'll bring her to thank you in person someday when I'm free. You can ask her then."

Seeing that Shen Rui said so, Ji Yunchen believed it a little.

His expression returned to normal, and he said calmly, "Your family has just reunited, so I don't want to disturb you. I'll go to the palace to see her in a few days."

"I will prepare a few glasses of wine to thank the city lord." Shen Rui nodded.

"Okay." Ji Yunchen responded.

"Then I won't disturb the city lord's rest. I'll leave first." Shen Rui said politely, eager to go home.

At Ji Yunchen's nod, Shen Rui left.

After Shen Rui left the City Lord's Mansion, Ji Yunchen said coldly to the empty room, "Go check."

"Yes." The secret guard's respectful response came from the air.

Ji Yunchen stood under the eaves, his light-colored clothes fluttering in the breeze.

He put his hands behind his back and looked up at the sunset, but his eyes were cold.

At the beginning, Shen Rui learned that the young alchemist was from the fox clan and was worried that she would not want to treat his wife. When he was in the treasure pavilion, he arranged for a hermit to capture her and bring her to the palace.

Unexpectedly, the little alchemist turned out to be his own daughter. It must be God’s mercy on the couple.

In order to allow Shen Daixing to live smoothly in the palace, the Wolf King spread the news and adopted her as his goddaughter.

The fox clan had received this news a long time ago. The fox king was so angry that he smashed things and prepared to snatch the person back. His fox clan’s young alchemist must have been controlled!

......

Wolf King's Mansion, inside the pavilion by the water.

Ji Yunchen and Shen Daixing sat opposite each other.

The pavilion is surrounded by clear water, lotus flowers are in full bloom, and the breeze blows by, bringing a faint fragrance.

"So, your real name is Shen Daixing?" Ji Yunchen was stunned, and he couldn't help but think of someone.

The woman who died in the secret place of the deep forest, who was as beautiful and special as a fairy, was also called Shen Daixing.

"Yes, my mother gave me this name. Distant mountains are covered with dark clouds, and the Milky Way has flying stars. Doesn't it sound nice?" Shen Daixing admitted it generously with her eyes curved into crescents.

There are so many people with the same name in the world. Besides, she is still a child, and there is no way she can be connected with her previous self in the secret realm.

"It sounds nice." Ji Yunchen responded softly.

His beautiful peach blossom eyes softened, his expression gentle and affectionate, as if he was looking at an old friend who had left a ripple in his heart many years ago.

They look alike, they really do. I thought she looked like her before, and now I know that they even have the same name.

It turns out that he was reincarnated.

Shen Daixing was chewing a juicy peach, looking up and blinking her big watery eyes, responding to his compliment with a smile in her eyes.

Apart from her parents who named her, Ji Yunchen should be the second person in the world who knows her name.

After such a long time, they could meet again and sit together to chat, which gave her a magical feeling.

"Why did you lie to me and tell me your name was Long Batian?" Ji Yunchen asked puzzledly.

"When you're out there, you give yourself an identity, so it's better to be cautious." Shen Daixing laughed, then changed the subject: "Besides, you didn't tell me you were the city lord."

"Is this my fault?"

Shen Daixing nodded seriously, and Ji Yunchen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Two people, one big and one small, were chatting, and from time to time the children's laughter like silver bells could be heard, and the lotus flowers outside the pavilion swayed in the wind.
