While everyone was waiting, Chen Jixian finally arrived.

He was wearing a windbreaker, and the black color enveloped him. He was obviously the Lord of the Dragon Palace, the hope of hundreds of millions of people in the Northern Territory, the father of the Chen sisters, the sun, and the warmth.

But when he walked past Chen Fan, Chen Fan inexplicably felt a chill all over his body.

This is not an illusion in my mind, it is really cold.

As he stepped in, the temperature in the living room seemed to drop a few degrees.

"Dad, are you injured?"

Chen Fan spoke first. He had a request to make to Chen Jixian, so he laid the groundwork.

"No problem, I just dealt with a small bug and got some of its scent!"

Chen Jixian waved his hand.

"What's going on? Lulu, speak slowly!"

He cast his gaze towards Chen Yunlu. It was clearly a very gentle look, but Chen Yunlu couldn't help but avoid his gaze.

She should be familiar with this kind of look!

She was the eighth child, ranked last in the family. Whenever she was a child, she was bullied and wronged while playing with her elder sister. When she complained to her father, her father would always look at her like this, hold her in his arms, comfort her with soft voice, and pretend to be very angry to vent his anger for her.

"I'm going to teach them a lesson right now. These older sisters don't act like older sisters!"

But now, it’s still that person, still that gentle gaze, why can’t she get close to him at all.

"It's just...Xiao Fan and I were arguing, and suddenly the soles of my feet changed!"

Thousands of words were only expressed in this one sentence.

Chen Jixian's gaze fell on Chen Yunlu's feet, which had already recovered.

Chen Yunlu's slender feet were in a pair of small slippers, and it was obvious that she was nervous because her toes were scratching the shoes.

"Dad, what's wrong with Xiaoba?"

"I heard that Xiaojiu was beaten to death by his father because he turned into a monster. Now Xiaoba is in trouble again. I hope I won't be the next one!"

"I'm scared! Dad!"

Before Chen Yunlu could react, Chen Shuxuan suddenly screamed, looking very frightened, and moved closer to Chen Jixian.

"Seventh sister..."

Chen Fan was about to say something, but when he saw Chen Shuxuan's expression, his heart moved.

This is Chen Shuxuan helping him. There are some things he can't say, but Chen Shuxuan can use her identity as a daughter to act coquettishly in front of her father.

Her words were not just casual talk, but involved a key issue: why would the woman of the Chen family have such a change, and would the change affect her?

Judging from her own experience, since the change has happened to her, will the Chen sisters also become different in the future?

Several children of the Chen family are here, so Chen Jixian can't make excuses.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!"

For the first time ever, Chen Jixian did not push away Chen Shuxuan who rushed over to him. Instead, he hugged her in his arms and gently stroked her head with his hand.

After calming Chen Shuxuan down, he glanced at everyone.

"I saw Lulu's look, and I think Xuanxuan's worries are also your worries!"

He motioned for everyone to sit down.

"Now that things have come to this, I won't hide it from you anymore!"

Chen Fan's heart was pounding. Was Chen Jixian going to be honest with him?

"In fact, I knew you were sick when you were born!"

As soon as Chen Jixian opened his mouth, the sisters all looked at Chen Fan.

Because Chen Fan also said this.

That's why he used blood as a guide to make medicine to help the Chen sisters. This was his contribution before he was kicked out of the Chen family.

Seeing everyone looking at Xiaofan, Chen Jixian laughed.

"Yes, Xiaofan also knows that before I faked my death, I specifically told him to take good care of you sisters! So from now on, you must treat Xiaofan as a relative!"

"So what's the connection between this disease and the changes in our sisters?"

"Don't be anxious, just listen to me slowly."

Chen Jixian took a sip of tea and spoke slowly.

"When I realized that Tingting had a problem, I no longer wanted Xue'er to give birth. Our relationship doesn't need a child to prove it."

The mother of the Chen sisters is named Jiang Yingxue.

Xueer is Chen Jixian’s nickname!

Chen Jixian felt a little sad.

"But Xue'er refused. She didn't want me and her child to be born with defects, so she would rather suffer physically and have one child after another... That's how you were born!"

"But at that time I didn't know what the consequences would be for you. I just heard someone said you wouldn't live long! I don't believe in superstition. If you're sick, just treat it. How can it be related to fate?"

"But plans can't keep up with changes. Something happened in the Dragon Palace, so I had no choice but to adopt Xiaofan. I hope Xiaofan can take care of you on my behalf!"

Having said this, Chen Jixian paused.

"By the way, Xiaofan, you should have seen those marriage certificates I wrote!"

The sisters of the Chen family suddenly blushed. At that time, they thought that the marriage certificate was forged by Chen Fan, and they took it as one of the evidences to drive Chen Fan out of the Chen family.

Chen Jixian smiled.

"Yes, I did write the marriage certificate myself. I was not in a good mood at the time. I thought about how much Xiaofan had sacrificed for our Chen family and how we had lived together for such a long time. It would be normal for him to marry several sisters. What's more, you both don't have a long lifespan..."

Facing the puzzled looks of the sisters, Chen Jixian burst into laughter.

"Of course, that was my thought at the time. I don't have that thought at all now."

Several people then breathed a sigh of relief.

"What then?"

Chen Jixian stopped laughing.

"Later...after I faked my death, I finally discovered the secret about you!"

"It's not a problem between me and your mother. Someone is trying to harm our Chen family. It's rare to have a family with nine children, and it's even rarer to have a family with nine daughters!"

"They are using your bodies to perform a ritual, a ritual that spans time!"

Chen Fan blurted out.

"Dragon Child Ceremony?"

Chen Jixian nodded.

"It seems that you have also discovered it. Yes, it is the Dragon Son Ceremony. The Nine Dragon Sons have always been a legend. Even the books of the Dragon Palace only record it, but no detailed description."

"During my research over the years, I discovered some information from an extremist organization that was wiped out."

"For the nine sons of the dragon to appear in the world, they must find nine brothers and sisters with the same blood relationship. This is the prerequisite!"

"Then we summon them out through a sacrificial ceremony."

"And you nine sisters were targeted before you were born, that's why your bodies changed like this!"

Silence, long silence.

The Chen sisters didn't expect that there were so many hidden secrets in this.

Have they been judged since childhood that they will have a short life?

Chen Fan remained silent. He did not expect Chen Jixian to be so frank.

He had just guessed that the sisters were related to Longzi, and he actually admitted it directly?

"Then, since you care so much about us sisters, why did you kill Xiaojiu?"

"Bring her back, maybe there is a way to solve it!"
