Chapter 373 - 373. Chou And Zhou
Two male figures also entered the room where the woman was. Fu Xie Lan's brow furrowed even more.
Zhou and Chou?
Why did the two figures treat their mother like that?
Even though she had only seen the woman a few minutes ago, Zhou and Chou's treatment of his mother a moment ago was in stark contrast to what her violet eyes witnessed.
Fu Xie Lan suddenly had a bad thought, but only for a few seconds, and then immediately brushed it off.
She can't judge something just by looking at it. However, her curiosity about the Wang family grew.
"What's going on in this family?"
First, Zhou and Chou, she found in the territory of another family clan. Second, they said that Wang Chu was not in Wang's territory and they could not meet him. Third, Madam Wang was chained by her own two sons.
A series of events filled with enigmas.
The darkness of the night outside slowly disappeared, replaced by the light of the morning sun and Fu Xie Lan still didn't feel sleepy at all.
Approaching the window and opening it slowly, immediately the wind blew, racing into the room. Looking at the path she walked just a moment ago. It was deserted, not a single Vampire she had met hanging around there.
Approximately in this castle, where is the ruby star stone?
In the late afternoon, Xue Ning and the others chose to relax in front of their respective rooms.
Sit in a circle and talk. Including Fu Xie Lan.
"I thought you wouldn't come out, Ju Xian," Xue Ning said when she found the man had just come out of his room and joined them all.
The man just smiled as she rubbed the back of his neck.
"So what are we going to do now, Xie Lan?" asked the man right after landing himself on the chair.
"Nothing," Fu Xie Lan replied as briefly as possible.
"Eh? Shouldn't we be looking for pieces of the ruby star stone?" Xue Ning said feeling confused.
"No need," replied the girl immediately reached into her cosmic bag and took the Voltex out of it.
"XIE LAN...."
"Shhhhhhh!!" Fu Xie Lan signaled Xue Ning not to raise her voice.
"Ahh, sorry," said the girl with a crisp smile.
Those who saw the vibrating object in Fu Xie Lan's hand could understand very clearly what the vibration meant.
Everyone in the room was silent.
Right after Fu Xie Lan put the Voltex back into her cosmic bag, a footstep sounded up the stairs, breaking the silence.
Isn't it daytime? The time when Vampires usually rest. Everyone is waiting, who is it that will soon appear before them?
Seeing who it was, suddenly a sigh of relief sounded from between Xue Ning's and Ju Xian's lips.
It was one of Wang Chu's sons.
"I'm sorry for just being able to visit, Miss," said the man while giving a respectful greeting.
"Sit down," Fu Xie Lan said after nodding.
"Thank You."
"I came just out of curiosity, do you guys need anything or not?" Zhou said, looking around.
"No, we don't need anything right now."
"Is that true?"
Fu Xie Lan just nodded.
"Then excuse me, Miss, Master," said the man and then stood up.
But his movements suddenly stopped when a voice entered his senses of hearing.
"Are you Zhou or Chou?" Xue Ning said matter-of-factly.
"I'm Zhou Miss. Is there anything I can help you with?"
"I'm just confused between you and your sister, Chou," the girl replied.
Zhou only smiled kindly at Xue Ning's words.
On the other hand, Fu Xie Lan who saw that smile felt very strange.
"Then I'll say goodbye first," said the man later.
"Wait!!" Xue Ning spoke again.
"Can I ask something?" she added.
Zhou turned around and then returned to his original position, sitting among the wizards.
"Please, Miss."
"Were all the rooms here occupied by someone before?" asked Xue Ning. A question that indirectly represented the curiosity of everyone, including Fu Xie Lan.
Suddenly Zhou froze on the spot, speechless. The expression on his previously friendly face suddenly changed. His pale white skin only made his appearance worse.
"Ah, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked you like this. Forget it, you can go," Xue Ning said again.
But Zhou remained where he was, not moving an inch. Makes those who see it feel confused.
"Before, all the rooms here belonged to my brothers, Miss," Zhou said finally speaking after a few minutes of silence. His voice trembled slightly.
"Is that true? Do you have any siblings besides Chou?" Xue Ning asked. Seeing a large number of rooms means that Zhou has many brothers.
"Then where are they? How come we never saw any of them after we got here?" asked Ju Xian in reply.
"Is it okay if we occupy their room?" he added again.
"They are dead, Master," Zhou replied curtly, instantly Xue Ning and Ju Xian felt guilty for accidentally touching such a sensitive topic.
"A-ah, forgive us for asking such a question," Xue Ning stuttered slightly and then kept quiet and didn't ask any further.
"Did it happen recently?" Fu Xie Lan suddenly made a sound that made all eyes turn to her.
"That's right, Miss."
"They died without leaving anything from their bodies," he added.
"Does this have anything to do with your father?" asked Ju Xian in reply. Since he's already touched on this topic, then what's wrong if he asks? And because of this question too, Fu Xue felt represented.
Zhou let out a shaky breath. "That's right, sir."
"I'm sorry, you guys visit such a pathetic family," Zhou added again.
"Does this also have something to do with you two who being in the Jun family clan territory?" asked Ju Xian even more curious.
Zhou nodded in agreement.
"There's no need to apologize like that. You haven't done anything wrong to us," Xue Ning said.
"All your brothers are dead? Did they catch a disease or something?" asked Fu Xie Lan.
"They were killed, Miss."
Suddenly everyone was silent on the spot, not knowing how to respond. The look on Zhou's face was very sad.
"Who did it?" asked Fu Xie Lan after a few seconds of silence.
"That...." Zhou said hanging.
Fu Xie Lan's brow furrowed.
"You don't know who did it?" the girl asked.
"Perhaps the culprits are people from the Jun family clan, Miss," Zhou replied.
"Maybe? You sound doubtful about your answer."
"If you're not sure, don't point to just anyone as the culprit," added Fu Xie Lan.
"But they died in that territory, Miss, If not people from the Jun family clan, who else?" Zhou replied feeling disapproved of Fu Xie Lan's words.
