Rebirth Of The Queen

Chapter 383 – Weak Clan (2)

"What other hope do we have for this clan's main family?"

"So to prevent any harm from entering the Wang Family Clan's territory, we agreed to not allow anyone to pass through the gate," said one of them as he continued to assess the people who were with Zhou.

"Let us pass," said Zhou.

"No, Young Master."

"Why did you enter the city center anyway?" the man asked again.

"This is none of your business," Zhou replied.

"Then you'd better go back. We'll never let you through," said the man.

Fu Xie Lan who saw the man next to her being treated like that only sighed harshly, feeling embarrassed. Even though the main family was weak, that didn't mean they could treat Zhou arbitrarily.

"So what if I want to go through that gate?" said Fu Xie Lan suddenly interrupting the two.

"Are you deaf? We said we would not let anyone through the gate," said the man again.

"So what? Is the gate broken?" asked Fu Xie Lan pretending to be stupid.

Several Vampires in front of them laughed loudly at Fu Xie Lan's words, "Miss, I don't know if you are joking or if you are stupid."

"Our clan is so weak, if the gate opened and allowed one to enter the city center, we wouldn't know what danger he would bring to this clan. If it's just him then it's fine, we are afraid that people who enter the city will get into trouble and affect this clan."

"If such a thing were to happen, with our weak strength. We won't be able to repel it and in the worst case, this territory will be taken over by another clan," answered one of them. His tone still sounded very polite when compared to the previous man.

Fu Xie Lan who heard about it more or less agreed. What they did was very right, moreover, the main family of this Clan was in trouble right now.

The girl understood what they were doing, it was just that their way of doing it was wrong, and she didn't like it.

"I can guarantee, something like what you said will not happen, Master," Fu Xie Lan replied.

"After all that you guys are doing is supposed to be through the approval of the main family. Not by acting alone, if it's like this, then it's the same as not respecting the existence of the main family."

"I know we are weak. But torn apart like this, wouldn't that be a disaster for this clan itself?" said Fu Xie Lan.

Those who heard it fell silent, especially Zhou and the few Vampires who insisted on blocking it.

Even the man who looked disrespectful earlier fell into silence and seemed to be thinking.

Fu Xie Lan who saw their reaction all smiled behind the cloth covering her face.

"Acting alone and suspecting each other is tantamount to suicide, you know?" she added again.

"Even though it's weak, it doesn't mean we have to act like this," she said patronizingly as if she were part of the Vampires.

They all just listened silently, trying to properly digest everything that was said by Fu Xie Lan.

While on the other hand, for some reason Zhou felt touched after hearing the girl's sentence. As one of the sons of the main family, he should have said that. But never had the slightest courage, even to voice everything that was on his mind.

And at this moment, what he was holding back had been voiced out directly by Miss Xie Lan.

Those who were blocking before now had their expressions slowly softened.

"A-alright, pardon our previous treatment, Young Master Zhou," said one of them while bowing, followed by the others.

"No problem, forget it. It's over," the man replied instantly.

"Then may we know your purpose for entering the city center?"

"I want to bring my father back," Zhou replied that instant.

"B-but, Young Master… The Jun family clan will not allow this to happen."

"I know that. However, I can't just sit around waiting for the news of my father's death," Zhou replied.

"You don't have to worry about anything. What I'm about to do, I guarantee it won't have any impact on our clan," he added.

"B-but how?"

"You don't have to think about it. Let it be my business," Zhou replied.

"Very well, Young Master. We will wait for your return here," said one of them.

"Thank you," Wang Zhou replied.

A faint sigh escaped from Fu Xie Lan's lips, it was fortunate that these Vampires had an easy-going disposition.

Zhou, Fu Xie Lan, and the others then passed through the gate unhindered.

It was already morning, the sun was shining brightly.

Setting foot in the center of the City, the first thing that awaited them was the intense stares of the people who were there. Immediately Zhou and the others became the center of attention.

It turned out that Fu Xie Lan's previous guess was wrong. She thought the situation in the city center would be quiet during the day. But what did she see now? Very crowded, like the city center in general.

"Come on, Miss," Zhou said then took the first step.

Fu Xie Lan just nodded in response.

The people they met did not hesitate to give a disdainful look. However, none of that had any effect on Fu Xue Lan though, and the others. Except for Zhao, since entering the city center, the man looked restless and very worried.

It was the first time in decades that he had appeared in front of so many clans like this again, making the man feel uneasy.

"Calm yourself," Fu Xie Lan muttered without turning to look at Zhao.

Sensing that Fu Xie Lan was talking to him, Zhou turned his head to the origin of the voice. "O-okay, Miss. I'm sorry," he said trying to control everything he was feeling.

"You know where the usual punishment is handed down?" asked Fu Xie Lan in the lowest possible tone of voice, yet still able to reach the senses of those with him.

"No, Miss. It's been a very long time since I last visited this place. And after that time, I've never been here again. During that time I've only heard stories from people," Zhou replied in one breath.

Hearing the man's answer, Fu Xie Lan took a deep breath. It seemed she had to move on her own to find information about it.

'Miss, I faintly feel a witch's aura spreading in this place,' Hao's voice buzzed in Fu Xie Lan's mind.

'Is that true? Doesn't it come from us?'

'No, Miss. This is different. It auras the same as the black-robed figure we fought in Fairy's territory,' Hao retorted.

'Ha?' Just as she finished her sentence, her sense of smell also felt the same way as Hao.

Fu Xie Lan reflexively looked back and found Wan Lie who was also staring at her.. It seemed, that man also felt the same way.
