Chapter 419: Scheme

After hearing those words, Celisia stormed her way out of the hall. She wasn't willing to stay here and further humiliate herself. After all, she couldn't win verbally against either Yanlu Rou or Jin Rou.

Jin Rou's eyes turned dark and laughed coldly, "This Court Council, they have been giving our family trouble even I have yet to take this position. It looks like they wouldn't stop unless our family is removed from this position."

"Of course, their ancestors there have been vying for the overlord position since day one. These bunch of bastards who were accepted by the first ancestor now turned into a bunch of ingrates." Yanlu Rou sighed and shook her head. There was no helping this matter. As those people were very greedy and evil.

"Grandma, do you think they will really make a move?" Jin Rou asked. If worse came to worst, he could just wipe them all out so that the court would be no more. It was easier that way. After all, who could actually fight against him here being a universal law?

"If they have eyes, they won't." Yanlu Rou smiled, "Though they are greedy, they won't step into an uncertain water. They would calculate everything first and if things are in favor of them, that will be the time they'd attack us."

"So it means that they will still attack us?" Jin Rou thought and said.

"It will happen, eventually. One way or another, they will have no choice but to attack our family so that they could claim the position. Remember, they couldn't take it yet since we are still here. One day, they will grow impatient and attack us obviously without thinking of what others think." Yanlu Rou answered, "But I am sure that it's not now yet. At the very least, they will first ask for an assistance outside to face us."

"They're going to ask for the Su family's assistance!" Jin Rou realized this. The court had been very cautious and never took a disadvantageous move and he experienced it in the past. They'd always do whatever they wanted to do as long as it would benefit them.

"Who else but them? Now that our strings with that family is quite complicated, I can see the council adding fuel to the fire. Who are the best one to ask help for in dealing us? Of course, the Su family is." Yanlu Rou confirmed. There was a bitter taste in her mouth that she couldn't explain.

Those greedy bastards would use everything in order to achieve their goal. They wouldn't stop unless they got what they wanted and they wouldn't even hesitate to sacrifice so many people to do this.

"Don't worry grandma. I'll think of a way to fix the mess between us and the Su family. I owe Syni something. So I will go there either way." Jin Rou said.

"There's no need to rush, Jin'er." Yanlu Rou looked at Jin Rou with warmth. She appreciated her grandson's thought and said, "Healing takes time. Even if you don't do anything, the mess will fix itself."

Although Yanlu Rou didn't believe what she said. She wanted Jin Rou to think about this thoroughly. After all, if he decided to make a trip there, wouldn't he be the center of ridicule and hatred? For sure, her grandson would receive the worst treatment there. And she didn't want it to happen.

Jin Rou knew Yanlu Rou's attention and didn't comment on this. But he opened another topic and spoke, "I will go to the Prime State."

Hearing this, Yanlu Rou and Lao Rou were stumped. In fact, even Xu Rou and Fan Rou were not an exception. Then, Yanlu Rou asked, "What are you going to do there, Jin'er?"

Prime State was the leading universe of all the 5 universes. They had the strongest families around that could destroy any universe they wanted to. Even the Su family was just below them and needed to follow their wills. Though the Prime State wasn't actually doing anything, just hearing their name would turn everyone into being submissive.

"When I fought with the emperor, I have found a critical information when I searched for his memories." Jin Rou explained the details and said, "And I found the out that the Prime State is very connected to the devils."

"Does it mean that the Prime State is also aware of us being attacked and even helped the devils?" Lao Rou couldn't help but ask. Thinking of this, he was gritting his teeth in anger and frustration.

"Though I haven't found anything like that as the memory is very limited and locked, it is a high possibility that the Prime State has something to do with this." Jin Rou spoke gravely. He also believed that the universe had done a great deal in this matter.

"But why would they do this? They are already the strongest universe out there. Why help the devils to attack us? As far as I remembered, we never offended their universe in any way!" Lao Rou was incensed. They had been in a amicable relationship with the Prime State and never dared to offend them. But what's this?

"I can only think of one possibility why they even used their hands to help the devils this time to attack us." Yanlu Rou looked at Jin Rou and said.

Seeing Yanlu Rou, Lao Rou blanked for a few seconds and got what his wife was trying to say, "Is it because of Jin'er?"

Jin Rou didn't reveal any expression. He was also thinking the same as her grandmother.

"Yes. As you know, Jin'er is the most talented youth out there that no one even in the Prime State can compare of. With so much potential, of course the Prime State will feel threatened. After all, they are also vying for the universal law. If the older generation couldn't, then the younger generation will do it in their stead. So, if you want to remove a competitor, who will you remove first?" Yanlu Rou explained calmly. But deep inside, she was raging. This universe had actually thought and killing her precious grandson.

That's unforgivable!
