Chapter 559 I Have An Illegitimate Daughter
Not only the White Tiger clan, but also other royal clans and even the major noble clans immediately took action after receiving the news, selecting the most outstanding women from their own clans as quickly as possible.
It's not just about talent, appearance also needs to pass the test. Otherwise, it's not just a matter of whether they can be presented or not, but it's also an insult to the deputy alliance leader, bringing disgrace upon oneself.
Although there aren't many stunning beauties, each clan still has some, especially the royal clans and even the smaller tribes below.
For them, they don't have the qualifications to compete with the royal clans for now. Being able to receive the deputy alliance leader's rewards and favor is already a pleasant surprise. So they can only arrange as much as possible. As for how many can bear the deputy alliance leader's children, it depends on their own abilities.
If they truly win the favor of the deputy alliance leader, having more children is not a problem. The quantity of gifts doesn't necessarily represent the number of children born.
Even though the royal clans are powerful, they dare not extend their hands into the deputy alliance leader's harem.
At Qin Changqing's current status and strength, he is no longer the son-in-law who can be easily manipulated. Others have to consider his opinions before acting.
And the most troublesome clan is the Black Tortoise clan.
Among the royal clans, they have the fewest stunning beauties, to the point where they are almost nonexistent. Although some of them have decent looks, they are far inferior to the beauties around Qin Changqing. This is naturally related to their own bloodline.
Inside the Black Tortoise clan's main hall.
The clan leader, Wu Changkong, had a solemn expression as he looked at the people below and sighed, "Do any of you still have daughters or nieces? It's already this late, as long as they have the bloodline of our Black Tortoise clan and outstanding looks, anyone will do!"
The people looked at each other in silence.
"Clan leader, we really don't have any. The list of women who can be presented has already been given to you!"
An elder bowed and said.
Others nodded one after another. This matter represents the future of the Black Tortoise clan, and no one would hide anything.
When one person achieves success, the whole family rises. If they have an exceptionally talented descendant, not only will their resources be allocated better in the future, but their status within the clan will also rise. Everyone understands this principle.
Wu Changkong scanned the faces of the people and looked at the list in his hand, feeling sorrowful. There were too few people!
In this way, their side will definitely be surpassed by other royal clans, losing at the starting line.
"This doesn't seem right!"
Suddenly, a burly man glanced at the black-faced man next to him and smirked, "Third brother, I remember a few thousand years ago when I was traveling, I saw you staying in a certain city. You were acting suspiciously, so I followed you and saw you strolling around with a little girl. Your mouth was stretched from ear to ear. That girl had good talent and was obviously a beauty. Tell me honestly, who is she to you?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's gaze fell on the black-faced man, their eyes filled with suspicion.
Wu Changkong also became spirited and quickly said, "Third elder, is there really such a thing?"
The black-faced man suddenly jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, pointing at the burly man and cursing, "Old Six, you're talking nonsense! When did I have a illegitimate daughter? Don't make things up!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that he had accidentally revealed something in his emotional outburst, and he froze in place.
The others stared at him with strange and silent expressions.
Wu Changkong sighed, "Third elder, you're really not good at lying. Since it has come to this, just tell us. Don't worry, we will keep it a secret!"
"Yeah, yeah, Third brother, speak up. We can keep our mouths shut!"
"Yes, we are all cultivators who have lived for tens of thousands of years. It's normal to have a few illegitimate children!"
"Third Elder, you really need to think this through. It concerns the fate of our Black Tortoise clan. If there are suitable candidates, how can we hide it?"
After a series of persuasion, coercion, and temptation, the man with the black face finally couldn't resist and spoke up.
It turned out that this guy did indeed have a mistress outside, a pretty human woman. Several thousand years ago, she gave birth to a daughter for him named Wu Menghuan. She inherited her mother's genes and had a beautiful appearance, not inferior to some Phoenix clan women. Her talent was also decent, with a good bloodline.
Upon hearing this, Wu Changkong slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "Third Elder, if that's the case, why didn't you say so earlier!"
The man with the black face was speechless, "How could I dare to say? You all know how fierce my wife is. If she finds out that I have a mistress outside, she will definitely tear me apart, let alone the fact that I married a human..."
Before the unification of the Beast Realm by the Evergreen Alliance, humans were considered the lowest-grade race in the Beast Realm.
The Black Tortoise clan held the highest position in the Beast Realm, so how could the Third Elder's wife possibly agree? It was very likely that she would go over and directly kill this woman.
Everyone finally understood why the man with the black face didn't dare to speak up, and they couldn't help but find it amusing.
Wu Changkong cleared his throat. He wasn't interested in the Third Elder's family matters and asked, "Is the Third Elder willing to let your daughter serve as the Deputy Alliance Leader?"
Since everything had been exposed, there was nothing to hide. If his daughter could give birth to a talented grandchild, it would be great.
The man with the black face nodded, "I'll talk to Huan'er about it later. She probably won't refuse."
Wu Changkong immediately showed a satisfied smile. Through this incident, he had opened up a new train of thought and his mouth curled up, "Elders, this matter concerns the future of our Black Tortoise clan. If any of you have suitable candidates, please inform me as soon as possible. You can tell me secretly if you want. I, as the clan leader, will keep it confidential!"
The situation of the Black Tortoise clan was different from other races. Their family traditions were stricter, either having no partners or having only one partner. It was rare for them to have multiple wives or concubines.
However, cultivators had long lifespans, and even the most beautiful women could become tiresome, not to mention that most of them were not beautiful.
Many people had mistresses to varying degrees, but they just didn't announce it publicly.
Wu Changkong naturally knew about this and turned a blind eye to it. Everyone was a man and could understand.
But now, it concerned the future of the Black Tortoise clan, so it had to be said, especially since someone had already taken the lead.
"The clan leader is joking. I am devoted to my wife and would never have an illegitimate daughter!"
"That's right, I am known in the clan as a faithful and good man. This is absolutely impossible!"
Everyone laughed and nodded. Whether it was true or not, they couldn't possibly admit it in public.
Wu Changkong chuckled, "It will take some time to gather all the women. There's no rush. If anyone has any issues, feel free to come find me. I'll be in the palace."
After saying that, he flicked his sleeve and flew away.
As everyone watched Wu Changkong's departing figure, they rubbed their chins and their eyes flickered, pondering something.
At this moment, the man with the black face looked a bit worried. He clasped his hands and pleaded, "Everyone, please keep this matter a secret. If my wife finds out, I'll be skinned alive!"
Everyone smiled and patted his shoulder, "Third Elder, don't worry. We are all men, having a wife is nothing to be ashamed of. We are brothers, how could we talk about it outside?"
"That's right, Third Elder, you can trust our character!"
