Chapter 523 Going to the Ghost Tribe for a Banquet
Langdu snuggled into the Luosha King's arms, "Father, don't get angry and get yourself hurt... My second brother was just confused for a moment, he..."
"Confused?" The Rakshasa King interrupted with a sneer, "He has clearly been bewitched by that mortal! Don't worry, your father won't let him threaten you. When this ghost feast is over, find an opportunity..."
The voice stopped abruptly, and a sinister arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Langdu's heart skipped a beat and he pretended to be panicked: "Father! No! After all, my second brother is..."
The Rakshasa King patted his hands, grabbed the gilded wine cup on the table and drank it all in one gulp, "Don't be afraid, my son. In this Rakshasa clan, only the strong deserve to live! Guiju is stupid, Gelsemium is arrogant, only you are worthy of being my heir!"
Langdu lowered his eyelids to hide the calculating light in his eyes, and reached out his hand to gently calm the Luosha King: "Father has been very kind to me, and I am willing to go through fire and water for you. But...if my second brother dies, I am afraid that the old ministers in the clan will have objections..."
"Who dares? My words are the law! Whoever dares to make noise, I will hang his head on the palace wall!" The Rakshasa King softened his voice, "Starting tomorrow, your father will teach you the secret arts of the Rakshasa clan. When you completely control the power of the clan, those jumping clowns will not be a problem..."
On the other side, after Gouwen led Guiju and Su Yang out of the meeting hall, Guiju cried like a child, "Brother, it's all my fault. I caused you to be scolded by father."
"It has nothing to do with you." Gouwen softened his voice for a rare moment and wiped the blood off his brother's face, but turned around and glared at Su Yang, "As for you, if you dare to say anything more next time, I will cut off your tongue. First, tell me, why did you leave the room without permission?"
"Humph, what else did you say? You said you were going to leave and you'd be back soon, but you ended up making such a commotion here that the earth was shaking. I'm almost starving!"
Guiju pulled out half a piece of flattened cake from his sleeve and handed it to Su Yang: "Here, here you go...I hid it."
His eyes were still red and swollen, and the tip of his nose was also red, looking like a bullied puppy. "I secretly left it when my father was scolding me."
Su Yang took the cake and took a bite. "It tastes not very good. It has a sour taste."
"Really?" Guiju sniffed his nose, "Maybe it was smashed just now, so it has lost its fragrance and tastes a bit strange..."
Su Yang nodded. "Oh, right, that appendix, bah, I said it wrong. What is the origin of that wolfsbane? Why is it so arrogant?"
Gouwen's face darkened. "He was born to my father's favorite concubine. He has been held in the palm of my father's hand since he was young, so he is naturally arrogant. In addition, he is a little smart, so he doesn't take anyone seriously.
"You are so arrogant, aren't you afraid that you will get into trouble someday?" Su Yang glanced at Gumby and deliberately bumped him with his shoulder, "Hey, are you just letting him bully your brother like this?"
Guiju waved his hands hurriedly, "No... I'm not bullying you! Father just... I'm just disappointed in you! Brother Langdu is very smart and can help father with family affairs. I... I can only cause trouble..."
Gelsemium suddenly raised his hand and slammed it on Guiju's head: "Shut up! Who allowed you to belittle yourself? When you led me to annihilate the Eighteen Demon Villages, he was still breastfeeding! If it wasn't for saving that old thing, you wouldn't have done this.
Now, a bastard who rose to power by flattery actually wants to step on your back and become king. Father wants to depose the eldest son and enthronize the youngest son? Then let him know that if the throne of the Rakshasa tribe is stained with your blood, the entire tribe will be buried with you!"
Guiju timidly grabbed the corner of Gelsemium's clothes, "Brother, don't... don't kill people..."
Gouwen's smile became more sinister. "I won't let them die easily. I want Langdu to watch his hands and feet rot bit by bit, watch his father destroy his own cultivation to save him, and watch the entire Luosha tribe turn into ashes before their eyes."
He looked at the setting sun that was about to sink into the sea of blood, and said softly, "After all, this is the best punishment for traitors."
Guiju grabbed Goushen's hand and cried, "Brother, let's not go against our father, okay? I don't want to be the crown prince anymore, as long as you are safe..."
Su Yang couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Big fool, can you be tougher? They are obviously ungrateful, why should you compromise? Besides, you have your brother to protect you, what are you afraid of?"
Gouwen glanced at Su Yang, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Little beast, you are really good at taking advantage of the power of others." He stretched out his hand and pinched Su Yang's face, "But who did you call a fool just now?"
……
Three days later, the morning light shone through the ice crystal window frames in the Luosha clan's bedroom. Gouwen kicked the door open and pulled Su Yang out of the bed by his ankle.
Su Yang rolled around on the ground wrapped in the quilt. Just as he was about to curse, cold fingers pinched his chin: "Little beast, how long do you want to sleep?"
Su Yang was pinched and forced to raise his head, bumping into Gelsemium's warning pupils.
The other party handled clan affairs until the hour of Yin last night. His eyes were dark blue, but he was still meticulously dressed in a formal dress embroidered with silver thread patterns. The black iron wristbands on the cuffs reflected a cold light.
"Today is the Ghost Clan's feast. If you dare to embarrass yourself in front of the other clans, I will tie you to an icicle when you return and let the whip teach you a lesson on manners."
Su Yang was thrown on a soft couch piled with gorgeous clothes, watching Goutian grab a moon-white brocade robe.
"Raise your hands." He leaned on one knee on the edge of the couch and roughly tore off Su Yang's pajamas. "Don't make me say it a second time."
Although Su Yang cursed in his heart, thinking that when he saw Cang Yuan, he would definitely let him teach this pervert a lesson, but on the surface he nodded obediently and let Gouwen change his clothes.
Seeing Su Yang in a daze, Gouwen increased the strength of his hands. Su Yang groaned and glared at Gouwen, but he only got a half-smile in return, "What? Unsatisfied?"
"Satisfied!" Su Yang cursed in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out loud, just curled his lips. Gouwen looked at him like this, stretched out his hand and pinched his cheek, "You are quite obedient, when we get to the banquet later, be honest with me."
At the same time, Guiju was busy dressing Jian Yi. He took out all kinds of gorgeous jewelry and beautiful dresses from his treasure house, and looked at Jian Yi with sparkling eyes, "You will look really good in this!"
Although Jian Yi was reluctant, he had no choice but to let Guiju manipulate him in order to cooperate with Su Yang's plan.
When everything was ready, the Rakshasa tribe set out towards the Ghost Tribe. Along the way, Su Yang was thinking about his escape plan.
The two tribes were separated by thousands of mountains and rivers. After an unknown amount of time, they arrived at the territory of the Ghost Tribe. From afar, the Ghost Tribe's palace emitted a faint blue light in the night, like a mysterious castle.
