Chapter 371 Many Doubts (1/2)

After Darren returned to the Chu Clan, he completed all necessary arrangements, including ordering the three invited guardians to take action in times of crisis. If they acted at whim, they would break the rules of all Holy Lands, which would trigger repression. At that time, if Darren were absent, there would be trouble.

Satisfied with the preparations, Darren called the three elders to a private room.

One of the reasons Darren had undertaken this journey was to figure out his true identity.

”Elders, please tell me honestly, am I the son of the Chu Clan?” Darren asked directly.

The three elders froze for a moment. They didn't know what prompted Darren to ask this question.

From among them, the Chief Elder was the first to speak. ”Darren, what made you question your lineage? Of course, you are the biological son of Gavin. Unfortunately, your poor father was killed on that day. Alas! We have never learned the identity of his murderer.”

Darren probed the Chief Elder with his Spirit Power and found that he hadn't lied.

A frown appeared on Darren's face as a strange feeling coursed through him. Darren had been gifted with a good memory—right since childhood, he could remember incidents that others had forgotten. He was three years older than Belle and clearly remembered the busy scenes in the yard when his sister was born. But Diana had said that he and Belle had not been birthed by the same mother.

So, who was his mother?

Creak.

At this time, the door opened, and a tall figure entered.

”I know the truth. You are correct. You are not Gavin's son,” the man said.

Darren's elder uncle, Reed, had interrupted the conversation.

”What nonsense? I was present on the day of Darren's birth,” the Third Elder declared. Agitation coursed through him when he heard Reed's absurd response.

”Sir, what I have said is the truth. Gavin picked up Darren. No. It's not completely accurate to say so,” Reed replied.

The elders were confused.
