7 Fan Rou and Xu Rou (1/2)
RUMBLEEEE!
RUMBLEEEE!
In the vast hall of the Rou Celestial Family, the entire ground was shaking as if a dragon was enraged! The feeling it gave off was something everyone in the Rou Realm felt! It was like the end of the world coming!
But there was really someone who was enraged that it almost covered the skies. His expression was utterly void of expression. However, from his eyebrows narrowed together, with a sharp and terrifying killing intent he gave off, one could deduce that this man was truly angered!
”Grenas, do you dare repeat what did you say?” a middle-aged man wearing a golden robe said with an angered tone, however, his reasoning told him to hold back. However, the entire ground was shaking!
This is the former Celestial King, Fan Rou. The father of the runaway Jin Rou!
The moment he was home from away, he bought some costly items for his son, Jin Rou, for him not to get bored quickly. His mother, Xu Rou, bought something as well. Who would have thought that his obedient child actually ran away? This caught him off guard!
”My lord... I don't dare! Please give the appropriate punishment for me!” Grenas kowtowed and banged his head to the floor several times. He was trembling at this moment because he knew what would happen if this man in front of him, that once stood above all, was enraged! He was not expecting something but to be punished right away to clear off his sin.
”You are a Celestial General that I personally picked for Jin Rou. I thought that you are responsible. Never did I thought that I misjudged you!”
”And you think giving you punishment will clear off your sin? You're underestimating the situation you are in. Huh?” Fan Rou said in an indifferent tone. He was glaring at the kowtowing Celestial General in front of him. If his glare was a weapon, Grenas would have been made to a meat paste already!
Grenas didn't answer. He knew that this time, he really enraged the former Celestial King. If it was not of his carelessness, how could be here in such a situation? But no one could blame him, who would think that their good and obedient Celestial King had still bore some thoughts of going out and even made his Grand Plan! How terrifying was that?
”Enough Fan Rou. Do you think it was entirely Grenas' fault that Jin-er ran away?” Jin Rou's mother, Xu Rou, said to Fan Rou.
The eyebrows of Fan Rou suddenly narrowed and asked with a tone of annoyance, ”What are you trying to say?” He was already in a bitter mood that his son run away, how could he not be annoyed by the words of his own wife?
”You don't know? If you didn't restrict Jin-er's freedom so much that it suffocated him, do you think he would run away this time?”
”You know Jin'er. He was always curious about the outside world since he was a child. I told you to give him some freedom so that he could experience to be a child.”
”But what did you do? You made him the Celestial King right a year after he reached the Pinnacle of Cultivation.”
”I know you are just concerned with the well-being of our son and you doted him almost like I do.”
”But this time, you went too far.” Xu Rou's voice was mild and gentle. However, there was a trace of anger that could be heard every single word she said.
Jin Rou's parents really doted him a lot. In fact, aside from being restricted outside, they gave him most of what he wanted. It would not be an exaggeration that if he wanted to destroy a world, be it a major or minor, they wouldn't hesitate.
In Xu Rou's point of view, who should be blamed was not Grenas, but them who were selfish enough to take their son's freedom. Even though Xu Rou said that it was Fan Rou's fault, she had also her share of what happened.
”You..” unable to say anything, Fan Rou glared at his wife with a little hostility. However, upon pondering for a moment, he seemed to realized something and took a deep breath and smiled bitterly, ”You're right.. Maybe I am really at fault. If not for my strict rules, maybe Jin Rou was still here. But what choice do I have? You know that his face could cause a world almost to collapse!”
”But he learned the Art of Disguise, you know that. If he really went outside and used his real appearance, he would have caused a commotion already. But why there was not? Even the nine minor worlds and three major worlds, there was no commotion.”
”The Prime Clans are managing those worlds and if they noticed something was amiss, they would have already reported it.” this time, the anger in Xu Rou's voice dissipated. It turned to a soft and gentle voice that was pleasant to the ears.
”Then Xu-er, what should we do?” Fan Rou calmed down and asked with a worried expression. Who's the father who won't worry about their son outside and unknown whereabouts? He was thinking if his son had eaten well, or did he take his vitamins and sorts.
