The gathering haze covered the starry sky. Oris gently moved his son away from him, and then looked at the middle-aged man who landed in front of him with a serious expression.
"Sir, I wonder what you mean?"
Oris bowed slightly and placed his position very low.
After all, let alone Titled Douluo, even Soul Douluo and Soul Saint are rare to see in Soto City!
Even Du Yu, the city lord of Soto City, is just a level 68 soul emperor!
He, Oris, was an auxiliary soul master with only over thirty levels of soul power. He couldn't help but be careless when facing a titled Douluo.
"Master Oris, I have a letter here from His Highness the Crown Prince. Before I read the letter, I need to know what your choice is. Should you continue to follow His Highness the Second Prince, or choose to support His Highness the Crown Prince?"
She Long showed a smile, but it was extremely scary against the dim starlight, "Moreover, you may be planning to defect to the Star Luo Empire!"
boom!
Like five thunderous explosions, Oris felt that his breathing was a little difficult.
He had only mentioned this idea to Du Yu, but how could this titled Douluo, who seemed to belong to His Highness the Crown Prince, actually know about it!
"Sir, the villain is just a bookkeeper, so he naturally follows the Lord of the City. As for who he wants to be loyal to, the villain himself has no independent opinion. You can ask the Lord of the City."
Oris licked his lips, and the dry and cracked feeling made him understand that if he didn't answer well, his family's lives might be ruined tonight!
"Hey, Du Yu?"
She Long shook his head and said with some emotion, "He is a smart man. He should have made a decision long ago. What is still preventing him from making a decision is the many nobles and soul master families in this city. I believe that,
He will definitely make the right choice in the end, are you right, Chief Oris?"
Being stared at by She Long, Oris looked away uncomfortably.
She Long smiled slightly and took out a sealed letter from his arms. There was no writing on the outer package.
Oris took the letter from She Long with both hands and opened it carefully. The content of the letter was only one sentence!
"If the lord of Soto City does not give a reply within three days, Oris will be the chief lord of Soto City and his son Oscar will be sent to the Tiandou Royal Soul Master Academy to study."
It was a simple sentence, but it made Oris break into a cold sweat and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief.
The lives of my wife, children, and children seem to be fine. Although I don't know why His Highness the Crown Prince chose me, at least useful people will not be abandoned.
Seeing Oris finish reading the letter, She Long stretched out his hand to grab the letter and completely destroyed it with his soul power.
"Sir, my son is only two years old, how can he enter the Tiandou Royal Soul Master Academy?"
Oris asked cautiously. In three days, based on his understanding of Du Yu, it was absolutely impossible to make a decision.
This also means that in three days, he may take over the position of Lord of Soto City on his behalf, and his child will be sent to Tiandou City by then.
This should be considered a proton.
However, Oris, who loved his son, wanted to try to see if there was any other way to make the Crown Prince feel at ease with him. Even if there was someone watching and controlling him, it would be better than sending his only son to the distant Tiandou City.
Facing Oris's inquiry, She Long also felt his scalp numb. He thought that what Lu Xiao was looking for was a genius or something, but he didn't expect that it was a child who was just over two years old.
Isn't this a joke?
"Ahem, His Highness is very optimistic about your son's talent and wants to focus on cultivating him. Aren't you willing?"
Oris had a grimace on his face, naturally he didn't dare to refuse.
"Okay, I'll wait for three days, and I'll come back after three days."
She Long nodded, and then disappeared under the starry sky, leaving only Oris with a solemn face and Oscar, who was still sleeping and didn't know anything!
"It seems that Lord Du Yu needs to make a decision as soon as possible. As long as the decision is made within three days, I will not need to ascend to the position of city lord, and Oscar will not need to be sent to Tiandou City."
In Oris's heart, the reason why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants Oscar to enter Tiandou City is entirely because Oscar is his most beloved son. If he becomes the city lord, as long as Oscar is in the hands of the Crown Prince, he will never betray the Crown Prince.
Therefore, as long as he does not become the city lord, Oscar will not be in any danger.
In the Prince's Mansion in Tiandou City, Lu Xiao fell into deep thought.
The information passed back from Soto City made him a little surprised. It was not surprising to Lu Xiao that Oscar's family was powerful in Soto City. After all, it could be seen from the scene where the Shrek Seven Devils first met that Oscar was not that kind of person.
A sociophobic person.
He is very good at diplomacy, and at the same time, he dares to boldly pursue Ning Rongrong, who is either rich or noble. Even when Ning Rongrong informs the sect of the rules in the future, he chooses to go out and practice hard instead of giving up.
Most people can't stand firm in front of the Qibao Glazed Sect, let alone challenge the rules of the Qibao Glazed Sect.
However, what Lu Xiao didn't expect was that Oscar's father turned out to be from the Lord's Palace of Soto City.
Thinking of the time when Qian Renxue was poisoned and killed the second prince in the original work, and Oscar became an orphan, Lu Xiao made a bold guess!
If he had not appeared, the second prince Xue Luochuan would definitely have deepened his ties with many city owners in the next two years, while Qian Renxue chose to directly eliminate Xue Luochuan's influence from the source.
After killing Xue Luochuan, those city lords who had colluded with Xue Luochuan were naturally unlikely to be safe and sound. Soto City was destined to have a bloody storm, and Oscar probably lost his family in that turmoil!
As for why this is the case.
Haha, Lu Xiao said, how is it possible that you, a member of the protagonist's team, don't have a grudge against the villain boss?
In addition, among all the people, Oscar's family is the most ambiguous.
Ma Hongjun was adopted by Flanders since he was a child. Because of the relationship between Flanders and the master, he was destined to be at odds with the Wuhun Palace.
Not to mention Tang San Xiaowu, the revenge of killing his mother describes the entire plot.
Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai are the princes and concubines of the Star Luo Empire, and their family ethics make people's scalp numb.
Ning Rongrong even has a sect background.
It’s just an Oscar, and there is no specific description from the moment it appears until the curtain call.
It is said that he was adopted by Flanders, but his relationship with Flanders is not as cordial as Ma Hongjun's. Even Ma Hongjun once said that he was a fire phoenix that jumped out of a grass nest. He was a sausage martial soul with innate soul power.
But there is no family introduction.
Don't think that a food-type soul master with innate soul power is not a genius. Lu Xiao is very sure that Flanders adopted Oscar after he awakened his martial soul at the age of six!
Otherwise, with Flanders's picky character, would he adopt a street kid for no reason?
There are probably seven to eight hundred street children in Soto City, if not eighteen thousand!
