1734 Punishment 3 (1/2)

”Bro… Brother-in-law, why… why did you do this to me? I… I just wanted to destroy a wooden statue… Gu Xijiu is still alive, but she built a credit temple for herself; how could you allow it? Even you don't have one…”

'Brother-in-law?! The Lord was the brother-in-law of this princess mermaid?' It was definitely breaking news to the ordinary people. At this moment, everyone was looking at each other with a shocked expression.

Lan Yaoguang just could not wait to shut his sister's mouth up! He immediately yelled, ”Jingyi! Shut up! Xijiu is also our sister! She…”

”She's not.” Di Fuyi suddenly interrupted Lan Yaoguang.

Lan Yaoguang glimpsed at Di Fuyi with his mouth wide open. ”Brother Huang, I thought you told us that Xijiu was reincarnated from one of my sister's souls…?”

”She has nothing to do with Lan Jingke.” Di Fuyi casually continued, ”She's always been herself; no one else. Lan Jingke has passed away, and she is truly dead; just like how the other mermaids' souls have broken into pieces, she will never be reborn again…”

Lan Yaoguang's face turned pale, and he took a step back. ”How… how is it possible? Brother Huang, I thought you said…”

”Lan Jingke was worried about you and your sister, and she was afraid that you might end up doing something silly as a result of depression; hence, she begged me to design a lie so that you will have something as your mental support…” Di Fuyi explained in an icy tone.

Lan Yaoguang stuttered, ”But…”

”There is nothing much for you to argue with me. Yaoguang, I'll definitely take care of you and your sister since I've promised your eldest sister to do so when she passed away during the battle; that's also why I helped you to manage all the administrative works of the mermaid kingdom and even helped you to ascend the throne. In fact, I've already repaid your sister since you have already dominated the entire ocean for more than 5000 years...

Lan Yaoguang remained silent.
