The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 374 - The Su Family (2)

"It has been a while, Lady Yanlu." Keisa Su smiled brightly as she looked at Yanlu Rou and next towards Lao Rou, shifting her gaze once again to Xu Rou and Fan Rou with a nodding gesture.

The latter had also greeted them back with the action with smiles etched on their faces. They needed to show proper courtesy and respect towards this family. After all, their ancestors had very deep ties towards each other. Of course, because of their friendship too.

"Yes, it has been a while, isn't it?" Yanlu Rou let the Su Family walked first past them and the Rou's followed suit behind with the exception of her being at the Su's pace, "We have been waiting for you and prepared everything in accordance to your tastes and all."

"Thank you for the great effort, Lady Yanlu." Keisa Su smiled and chuckled lightly, "But seriously, you don't have to do this though. We can accept even nothing."

The Rous had really used some of their resources to receive the guests. With a brown interior design placed by the finest artists of this realm, it looked very appeasing to the eyes of them. And their efforts bore fruit, as the three Su members actually liked it, especially Keisa and her husband.

"Of course, we need to do at least this much." Yanlu Rou insisted, "You all are very important guests of our house so we need to receive you according to what you truly deserve."

The Su Family didn't comment on this and just smiled.

"Hello, Lady Yanlu." While they were still walking, Syni Su, the princess of the family, greeted her with a beaming smile.

"Ah, Syni'er, you don't need to call me lady. Just call me grandma, that will do." Yanlu Rou laughed a bit and spoke, "However, what is it? Do you need something?"

Xu Rou couldn't help but look at Yanlu Rou with a strange expression. Why would she say that kind of thing? Even Fan Rou was also confused. Though the age gap between the two was certainly insurmountable, the Rou had a customized rule that only those inside the family could call the ancestors informally. But now, she was letting an outsider call her that?

For sure, there was an underlying reason behind it.

But Syni Su didn't mind and asked, "I wonder, I can't see him anywhere here."

The princess was talking about Jin Rou. She had been using her active senses to detect where he was. However, it had been a few minutes but she couldn't still trace him. Thus, the curiosity got the better of her and finally asked.

Shila Su and Keisa Su smiled when they heard this, their daughter was here because of the sole purpose of meeting Jin Rou once again.

"Ahh..." Yanlu Rou couldn't help but take a deep sigh and answered, "Syni'er, Jin'er is still finishing the tasks I gave him. That's why he is still not here. However, you don't have to worry because he will be here soon."

"Oh, I see." Syni Su couldn't help but reveal an obvious disappointment in her face. It couldn't be helped, though.

"Syni, Jin will be coming home sooner so you don't have be sad." Shila Su consoled his dejected daughter.

"Right, Syni'er." Yanlu Rou expressed her words once again and added, "I'll be calling him so that he will rush here to meet you."

This time, Fan Rou was sure that there was an underlying current of events that his mother trying to create. Of course, even his wife Xu Rou could clearly tell it. Yanlu Rou didn't filter anything as she expressed her intentions by clear waters.

But of course, even at this case, they didn't say anything first. Because it was an appropriate place and time to talk about it.

"Really?" Hearing the words of Yanlu Rou, Syni Su's complexion brightened instantly and spoke like a joyful child.

Yanlu Rou nodded and gave an affirmative reply with a smile. Deep inside her, she was thinking that things would go smoother than she anticipated.

Syni Su just replied with a smile on her face that could shame all the most beautiful treasures in the world. With one smile and every man in this world would surely go crazy and fall head over heels for her.

After several steps, the group finally reached the grand dining hall of the palace with food fully prepared on the long ruby table and diamond chairs.

"I know you guys are hungry now." Yanlu Rou clapped her hands and said, "How about we talk our matters over lunch?"

The Su Family agreed. Indeed, the trip was very long and boring. Thus, they tended to be bored and hungry on the way. Now was the best time to take a proper meal while talking about serious matters.

"What, the devils are going to attack this soon?" Shila Su was greatly shocked by this news told by Yanlu Rou. The Su Family had also predicted a retaliation from the devils. However, they assumed that it wouldn't be either them or the Rou. After all, they weren't the weakest and couldn't be bullied anytime they willed.

But who would have thought that the devils would be attacking the Rou Family first? Take note, Rou Celestial Family was the third strongest out of all the 5 overlords of the universe with the Su Celestial Family being second.

Even Keisa Su's movements halted. This news was greatly an impact to her surprise. It was a very serious matter that the family should take seriously.

They also now knew why Jin Rou was dispatched. It might be to ask for a help or get something that could help them win against the devils.

The devils from today was very different compared to those from the past. If we would measure it to a degree, the difference was like heaven and earth. After all, the Su Family had also experienced the devil's attack in the past. Of course, it wasn't in an universal problem like this one since that one was just a small-scale attack.

Thinking about this, they thought that they came at the wrong time.
