Chapter 375 – 375. Problem In Wang Family Clan (2)
"The clan head of the Jun family reigns not only in his territory but also in the center of the city. Everything that happens in that place must be with his knowledge."
"And there has never been a clan that dared to dispute the decision of the clan head of the Jun family, not even the other two clans as if they were all submissive and obedient to that family Clan."
Fu Xie Lan who heard Zhou's words fell silent again, not knowing how to respond.
"Do you know Elder Huang Bao, he is a wizard too?" asked Fu Xie Lan suddenly remembering her Master.
"Elder Huang Bao? I feel familiar with his name, Miss. What's wrong with that elder?" Zhou asked back.
"Nothing, I was just asking."
"He is my Master, and he was also the one who ordered me to see Wang Chu," added Fu Xie Lan.
"Is that true?" Zhou's brows furrowed as if he was contemplating something. But only a few seconds later back to normal.
"Do you mean Elder Huang Bao who is from the Phoenix academy?" Zhou asked trying to guess.
"Erm, that's right. Is there any other elder named Huang Bao besides him?"
"He used to visit here often, Miss," Zhou replied.
"But it's been a very long time," he added.
"Is that true?"
"Elder Huang Bao has a close relationship with my Father."
"I don't know how he will react when he hears that his friend will receive the death penalty in the city center."
"Death penalty?" Xue Ning was shocked.
"I thought that the punishment wouldn't be that severe," she added, never expecting it.
"The Jun family clan, apart from being strong. They are also ruthless, Miss."
"Anyone who gets into trouble with them will receive the death penalty, even if it's a small mistake," he added, his face turning gloomy again.
"Whereas here, the Wang family is the victim. And the Wang family must also receive the death penalty."
"It's so sad," Fu Xie Lan muttered.
"Ah, I seem to have told you a lot of things. I'm sorry, Master, Miss," Zhao said then took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, trying to control his emotions and feelings.
"Don't need to think about what I am saying," he added.
"No problem. Don't say things like that," Xue Ning replied in that instant.
"If you don't need anything, I want to say goodbye," Zhou said then rose from his position.
"Wait!!" prevent Fu Xie Lan. Immediately everyone turned to look at her again. Waiting for what the girl will say next.
"What is it, Miss?" Zhou asked.
"Sit back down, I want to ask you something again," Fu Xie Lan replied. And after that, Zhou landed his body on the chair.
"What is it, Miss? I'll try to answer as much as I can," the man said after clearing his throat.
"You ever heard of Ruby star stone?" asked Fu Xie Lan directly without further ado.
"Ruby star stones?"
"What is it, Miss?" Zhou asked with his eyebrows knit together in confusion.
For a moment, Fu Xie Lan was silent on the spot. Assessing Zhou secretly. Thinking that the man might just be pretending not to know, however, Fu Xie Lan didn't find the expression she was looking for.
The man seemed to know nothing about the Ruby star stone. But, how can that be? While that thing is in this castle.
"You never heard of the name of that thing?" asked Fu Xie Lan again.
"No, Miss. This is the first time I've heard of such a thing," replied Zhou.
Xue Ning, Wan Lie, and the others had the same confusion that Fu Xie Lan felt.
"What kind of thing Miss do you mean? I mean what are its characteristics?" Zhou asked, feeling slightly uncomfortable when he saw the expressions of those sitting with him.
"It may be a piece of stone, it is red as bright as blood and very small in size," replied Fu Xie Lan in that instant.
"Stone?" Zhou repeated.
Fu Xie Lan nodded in approval while noticing the change in the man's expression.
"I don't know what kind of thing you are referring to, but the Wang family has a large collection of magic stones, Miss."
"The stones, all of them are relics of our ancestors. And we store them in a special room," he added.
"Is that true?" asked Fu Xue Lan that very second.
"That's right, Miss. If you want to see it, I can take you to that room," Zhou replied with a nod.
"May I?"
"Is it okay?" Fu Xie Lan asked again feeling unsure, because the last time she got the ruby star stone, she destroyed Fairy's territory. It seemed a little impossible if she could obtain it this easily.
"Of course, Miss. Besides, I don't know if what you're looking for is among the stones," Zhou replied.
"Okay then, when can we see it?" asked Fu Xie Lan.
"I can only bring you guys tomorrow. Today I have something to do, Miss," Zhou replied.
"Hmm, fine. We will wait, don't worry," said Fu Xie Lan again.
Zhou just nodded.
"Do you still have…"
Before finishing his sentence, the sound of footsteps climbing the stairs again sounded with a very fast rhythm. Maybe the figure was running?
"Young Master Zhou…." someone shouted from downstairs, and seconds later the figure of a middle-aged man in a red robe embroidered with stars wrapped around his slender body appeared at the end of the stairs.
"Young Master…" the middle-aged man called again, still trying to catch his breath.
Zhou immediately turned his head, "What's wrong? Why such a rush?"
"Your mother… Madam ran away from her room, sir."
"WHAT?!" Zhou immediately rose from his position.
"Master, Miss. Looks like I have to go now," said the man again.
Getting a nod from Fu Xie Lan, Zhou immediately left the second floor without waiting any longer, together with a middle-aged man who had suddenly appeared.
And now only Fu Xie Lan and the other four remained.
"How pathetic," Xue Ning mumbled, yet still managed to reach everyone's ears.
"Xie Lan, if only we had more time. I want to help this family," Xue Ning said immediately.
Fu Xie Lan who heard Xue Ning's words just stood still. What the girl said was true. To be honest, deep down in her heart, she was also eager to lend a helping hand to the Wang family clan. It was just that she had a business that had to come first, except now. They are free. Maybe helping them a little wouldn't be a problem right?
Immediately Fu Xie Lan rose from her position, with violet eyes scanning everything she saw without a hitch.
"Where are you going, Xie Lan?" Wan Lie asked when he saw his mother suddenly stand up, he also did the same thing.
