Chapter 875: Responsibility
"You don't know, Brother Luo actually..."
The butler burst into tears and corrected himself: "Your Majesty the Demon Emperor, Robin's last name is Shelby, not Luo."
You Chuiyun seemed not to have heard: "Brother Luo, he told me that if there is a next life, we must be brothers! We are brothers." Then he beat his chest and feet, and his tears fell down as if they were worthless.
The housekeeper seemed to be infected by his emotions. Except for Lian, whose ribs were broken and her neck was red from holding it in, everyone else in the mourning hall was crying... Even if some were pretending to cry, they had to show their dignity.
After all, Robin could be considered to have died an honorable death in legal terms. It was a duel second only to a king, and it would probably go down in history.
"Brother Luo, you died so miserably..."
Yu Chuiyun successfully transformed his image into Robin's half-brother, but to be honest, with Yu Chuiyun's majestic status as a demon king, calling Robin a brother is a step down from his dignity.
So when it comes out of his mouth, people are quite accepting of it, because people in real life always like romantic and nihilistic stories.
Just when the brothers and sisters were respectful in the mourning hall, an old man's figure appeared at the door, and then he applauded.
Snap, snap, snap.
When the head of the family came, everyone stopped crying and wiped the tears from their faces.
"I am grateful to His Majesty the Demon Emperor for his friendship with my grandson..." Old Tom walked in slowly. He had a kind of majesty about him. You Chuiyun had seen demons with this kind of temperament. Duke Ross was one of them, Feilong Wang wants to count two, and Old Tom can count one and a half.
"There's no need to be grateful. You can't control things like emotions. In the human race, this is called the fate given to us by God."
Of course, Old Tom could see through Yu Chuiyun's acting at a glance, but he had to say that this guy was too slick and had no position at all. The slicker the enemy, the harder it was to deal with him.
"Your Majesty the Demon King..." Old Tom couldn't help it, because the person didn't come to cause trouble, but seemed to come with good intentions and treat people with courtesy, so he had to bow and thank him: "This is the second time we have met. "
You Chuiyun also put his hands on his shoulders and responded with a demon courtesy: "I had some unpleasantness with you last time, so I came here to apologize."
"No, no, no, it's our Shelby family that lacks proper etiquette and has offended His Majesty the Demon Emperor. Our entire family is very sorry."
I saw You Chuiyun wiping a handful of tears, and then took out a wooden box from his arms: "I asked the devil for this drop of ancestral blood. I will treat it as a memorial to Brother Luo and apologize to you. You must Take it."
Saying that, You Chuiyun actually opened the box, and ancestral blood floated faintly inside, but the smell was enough to make all the demon tribesmen crazy, that was ancestral blood! Even if you eat it, you can prolong your life by hundreds of years! Who doesn't want that?
The breathing in the mourning hall suddenly became heavy, and the eyes of the demons were blood red. Only Old Tom's eyes were still clear. He was thinking about what kind of medicine was sold in Youchui Yun Gourd? But in short, it is definitely not a good medicine.
A drop of ancestral blood caused everyone to reveal their true colors. You Chuiyun sneered in his heart. I am afraid that the Demon Emperor's reputation for generosity will spread throughout the city today...
"This gift is too valuable. We must not accept it. We should ask His Majesty the Demon Emperor to take it back." Old Tom refused.
"No, no, no, this is my heart for the entire Shelby family. You must accept it. Even if it is for Brother Luo, I am willing to accept it."
You Chuiyun actually knelt on one knee in front of Robin's spirit, took back the drop of ancestral blood and placed it next to the coffin.
Old Tom narrowed his eyes and knew that there was no reason to refuse this drop of ancestral blood... This guy was so good at creating an atmosphere that even his confidant butler nodded repeatedly. It seemed that he completely believed in this guy.
"Okay." Old Tom had a headache. The housekeeper looked at him and wondered if it was an illusion. Why did the head of the house seem to show a trace of anger, but he hid it well.
"I will accept this drop of ancestral blood on Robin's behalf. Our Shelby family and His Majesty the Demon Emperor will be able to reconcile. If anyone attempts to split our relationship, they will suffer the angry revenge of our Shelby family."
Old Tom ordered calmly: "Butler, go get a gift of the same value and give it back to His Majesty the Demon Emperor."
"No need!" You Chuiyun immediately refused.
"No, Your Majesty the Demon Emperor, it is a rule to reciprocate with courtesy. You gave us such precious ancestral blood, how can we let you go back empty-handed?"
Soon, the housekeeper packed up two more carts of gifts, yelled at the Shelby tribe to load the carts for You Chuiyun, and warned them not to miss anything. He also sent people to ensure that the gifts would arrive - they had to be seen by everyone in the city. The Shelby family's return gift was huge.
This is social etiquette, which means that people should respect me a foot, and I should respect others a foot. It is also a necessary gentlemanly spirit.
You Chuiyun brought one or two more cartloads of gifts, which were presented gracefully by the Shelby family members with nods and bows, and then he returned home happily with the valuable gifts...
——
"ah!"
Old Tom overturned the table and told everyone to get off! The owner's inexplicable anger made everyone fearful and they quickly retreated to the side courtyard, especially Lian. Seeing the cold murderous intent in Old Tom's eyes when he glanced at her, Lian was very frightened and walked the fastest.
The housekeeper returned to the mourning hall and saw the overturned table. He was about to get angry, but when he saw only the master of the house there, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat: "Master of the house, why are you angry?"
"Because today is my shame and our family's shame!" Old Tom calmed down instantly after getting angry, but he still spoke through gritted teeth. He was playing with the wooden box in his hand, which contained precious ancestral blood.
"Master...I don't understand..."
"You Chuiyun, Sucha Harcan... Hahahaha, you think you can hide from my eyes? This drop of ancestral blood is poisonous and cannot be used at all... He used this useless drop of ancestral blood to blackmail us Xie Compared to the two most valuable cars in the family, why do you think I’m angry?”
Old Tom's calm eyes made the housekeeper sweat like rain and his legs became weak: "This drop of ancestral blood is poisonous? He wants to poison you, the head of the family? He is so brave! Isn't he afraid of our family's crazy revenge?"
"Haven't you seen it yet? He knew very well that I would not take this drop of ancestral blood, so he acted like this today, so that everyone in our family will change their view of him, and he can also claim to be reconciled with us... A drop of ancestral blood Blood is so generous.
I don’t know how many families will show kindness to him after today, but we are the only ones who are being used by him and can’t tell the truth even if we eat flies! This boy is really not simple. "
The more Old Tom talked, the more murderous he became: "I designed to kill my grandson, and today he even made a show to make our family like him. He sent this drop of poisonous blood, knowing that I would not take it, but just to disgust me... This is This is a method I have never seen in my life!"
The housekeeper gasped: "I'm going to ask them to pull the things back. When has our Shelby ever suffered such a loss? No, we can't let it go like this."
The butler didn't take two steps before Old Tom stopped him: "Come back! Isn't that embarrassing enough?"
The butler's expression became bleak, and he collapsed on the ground. Thinking of the man's acting just now, he regretted his own stupidity.
"The two drops of ancestral blood that Robin won back from the Demon King are also poisonous. With this drop, I already have three drops of poisonous ancestral blood. How lucky I am? Hahaha!"
A ball of light suddenly erupted from Old Tom's hand, and then the drop of ancestral blood was crushed and exploded along with the box.
"Now that I have reached the end of my life, right, you are trying every possible means to get me to eat the blood of the Poison Ancestor. I can choose not to eat it, but without me, the Shelby family is just a piece of meat on the chopping board - what a good plan, His Majesty the Demon King... ...Is Old Tom such a thorn in your side?"
Old Tom slapped the pillars in the mourning hall, and the whole building shook.
"Do you really think I can't get in touch with Jin Kaela's students?" Old Tom suddenly laughed: "Do you really think I will just sit back and wait for death?"
——
"How about it?"
As a Knight of the Round Table, Tie Xiong's students, Jin Jila, were invited by the Demon King but were all killed. He came to check the situation on behalf of the Demon King.
"They were all dead, not a single person was left alive...the ancestral blood was also taken away."
As the representative of the Demon King walking in the world, Tie Xiong personally came to check on the fate of the Jin Jia La students. As soon as he walked into the room, he was stunned by the blood all over the wall. It can be said that no corpses were left.
"Wang Jue, at least it was Wang Jue who took action." Tie Xiong exited the room and told the officials investigating the case: "The action was extremely quick, and he didn't even think about leaving anyone alive... It's no wonder that no one noticed that a Wang Jue was so cruel. Hands, it’s really unreasonable.”
The official in charge asked: "Can you tell which prince did it?"
"Nonsense, if I could tell, he could be a prince?" Tie Xiong left these words and returned to the royal city.
——
"All dead?"
After You Chuiyun heard the news that Xiao Freckles told him, he was in a daze for a while. Maya put down the milk tea cup and held the owner's hand, but found that it was a little cold.
"Well, I can only say that they should not be greedy and not donate the ancestral blood. If they don't die here, they will be robbed on the way home... How can they take away the ancestral blood?"
Xiao Freckles is also quite regretful, as the students of Jin Kaila are quite honest and upright.
You Chuiyun felt a little complicated. There seemed to be a group of students in front of him who kept calling him "teacher, teacher."
Although he was not their real teacher, You Chuiyun felt a pang of distress.
Damn it, I had expected that something would happen to them a long time ago... But to this day, am I acting coy?
Old Tom doesn't know how to take Belle, Green, and the ancestral blood he sent, so he only has the last choice left.
The Jin Kaila students had a drop of ancestral blood in their hands, so Old Tom had no choice but to take action. Unfortunately, these poor students were involved in a conspiracy... But they didn't expect that they would be so ruthless and not a single one of the ten students would be left behind.
You Chuiyun completely lost his mind about eating. Seeing that he was absent-minded, Yaya naughtily picked out the big chicken drumstick from his plate, so she was stared at by Maya for a long time. 33
"Su Can... Su Can! What are you thinking?" Xiao Freckles noticed that he seemed to be showing a sense of self-blame: "I heard that they called you teacher, don't you really feel that you have not done your duty?"
Some people died, but not completely...
