Chapter 584: Chapter 585: I am your Father
Blood surged in Luo Bu’s body, rushing to his head, almost causing him to lose his sanity.
Ru Hua seemed caught in a nightmare, ranting on her own, "Lord of the City! Not only has Ayue been cheating on you, she’s also lied to you. Yadang is not your cub at all. Ayue thought she had leverage over me, forcing me and Luo Bu to help her. She threatened to reveal my relationship with Luo Bu if we didn’t help her cub become the young master."
Luo Bu roared with anger, "Shut up! Have you gone mad?!"
As he moved towards Ru Hua, intending to knock her out and stop her from talking anymore.
But as soon as he moved, Ru Hua stumbled back like a frightened bird, explaining hurriedly with a panicked face.
"Lord, I had no choice but to help her deceive you. I realize my mistake now. Can you forgive me, please? Ayue is a cold-blooded female, don’t let her deceive you anymore."
Luo Bu picked up a stone and slammed it against Ru Hua’s head. Ru Hua immediately fell to the ground, unconscious.
It was only then that Luo Bu breathed a sigh of relief. He turned and looked at Yali on the stone bed, his face terror-stricken. He gave a compassionate smile,
"Don’t be scared, cub. Your mother is just taking a nap. She’ll wake up soon."
Yali was still staring dumbfoundedly at Luo Bu, his lips trembling slightly, managing to squeeze out a word, "You..."
Seeing no one else around, Luo Bu decided to stop hiding, nodding and sighing, "Yes, you’re indeed my cub. But only your mother and I know this secret. Don’t worry, the young master of Upper Beast City will be you. Your father will help you."
When Luo Bu said this, he felt very proud.
After all, he and Ru Hua had kept this a secret for so long, and no one had realized that Yali was actually his cub.
Moreover, the Lord of the City was extremely confident in his words, considering Yali to be a favored cub of the Beast God. He had awakened his superpower even before the rites, and he was deeply cherished by him.
But in fact, Yali had already gone through the rites.
Ru Hua had conceived her cub nearly half a warm season earlier than Ayue, but at that time the Lord of the City was all about Ayue and didn’t pay any attention to the other females.
So Yali was actually half a warm season older than ’Yadang’, but Luo Bu suppressed the news, and everyone thought that Yali was just a day older than ’Yadang’.
Engrossed in his self-satisfaction, Luo Bu didn’t notice the horrified look in Yali’s eyes.
"Don’t be scared, Ali. The doctor will be back soon, and we’ll have him check your injuries. What’s wrong with your eyes? Are you uncomfortable? Come over here and let me have a look."
Luo Bu beckoned to Yali, but Yali shook his head frantically and kept retreating into the corner.
His reaction left Luo Bu puzzled, "Ali?"
"Quite a fond way to call out, priest." The voice of Keli echoed from the cave entrance.
Luo Bu’s body stiffened immediately.
He quickly composed himself, turned around, and bowed to Keli, "Lord of the City, I didn’t expect your sudden visit."
Keli’s face was calm, revealing nothing. He spoke up casually, "Oh? Do I need to inform you when I come over here?"
Luo Bu bowed lower, beads of cold sweat forming on his forehead, "That’s not what I meant."
