Bone Throne

The entire Lal family promises to dedicate their body and mind to the noble Lord of Darkness in their lifetime, and swear by life and honor.If there is anyone who violates the oath, heaven and man will kill together!

—— "Family Rules"

Hester had to look through the "Family Rules" every day, and review over and over again several rules that he had already memorized, including the first sentence of the opening chapter.Although the Lal family has taken root in the Brahma Kingdom for a long time, it seems that they have been assimilated into the people of this place.But in fact, every member of the Lal family has not forgotten what their purpose of staying here is, and they have not forgotten their beliefs - the man who once stood at the highest point overlooking the world, even if he disappeared, he still has a powerful deterrent force.

They have been waiting, waiting for the arrival of the dark young master in the prophecy.Time is of course powerful, and it can erase the faith of one or two people.But when a group of people with the same belief gather together, even the vast years cannot shake this kind of power from the depths of the soul.

Hester lovingly brushed the dust that did not exist on the "Family Rules", carefully put it back into the cabinet, got up, closed the door, and left the study.

On the other side, Ding Yuye, who went out early in the morning to collect information on the Ambow family, pushed the door open and walked into the room, holding a palm-sized notepad in his hand, which was given to him by Nangong Yin before he left to record the collected information of.

Nangong Yin was reading a collection of poems written by a famous bard in the Brahma Kingdom. When Ding Yuye came in, he happened to turn to the next page slowly. He didn't look up when he heard the noise made by Ding Yuye, and asked, "How many did you find?" ?”

"There are quite a lot, but the reputation of this family does not seem to be very good." Ding Yuye drank half a cup of tea in one breath, took a breath, and threw the notepad to Nangong Yin, "Well, it's all on it, you can see for yourself Bar."

Nangong Yin put down the collection of poems according to his words, picked up the notepad thrown by Ding Yuye and opened it. The first sentence was that two days ago, the second young master of the Ambow family was almost bruised and swollen because of a woman fighting with another dude in the street. Throwing it into the moat to feed the fish made Nangong Yin embarrassed.

"You're quite gossip." Nangong Yin raised his head and glanced at Ding Yuye with a faint smile in his eyes, which made his heart skip a beat.

Before Ding Yuye could say anything, Nangong Yin continued to look down.

As Ding Yuye said, the reputation of the Anbo family is far worse than that of the Lal family.The Ambow family is not ranked high among the 72 clans, but they are the richest among the 72 clans. It is said that their catchphrase as the head of the finance department of the Brahma Kingdom is "things that can be solved with money are not serious".However, the superior life has made the descendants of the Ambow family develop the habit of being lazy and extravagant. Not to mention the side branches, even the descendants of the direct descendants spend their days and nights and are not enterprising. It made people from other clans watch a lot of jokes.

After reading it, Nangong Yin closed the notepad, and a trace of doubt flashed in his deep eyes: "Is the Anbo family really a branch of the Guangming Church?"

"Actually, this question is also what I want to ask." Ding Yuye pouted, with a strong look of disdain on his face.

The quality of the Ambow family is not to mention compared with the Lal family, but any other clan in the 72 clans can easily compare with it. Such a family with a rotten atmosphere is really the work of the Church of Light. A hidden pile left here?Were the people who made the arrangement back then blind?

"Perhaps, this is just a means of hiding." Nangong Yin picked up the half-read poetry collection, although his eyes were fixed on the poetry collection, his thoughts drifted to other places, "It's like the Lal family trying their best to keep a low profile In that way, maybe this is the Ambow family's way of self-protection, in order to reduce the suspicion of the ruler and the vigilance of other families."

Ding Yuye didn't expect this, he was only concerned with resentment and didn't think about it.However, if it is a clumsy method, it is too deep. Among the dozens of juniors, only a 16-year-old girl can barely make it to the stage, and the inheritance is almost cut off!

"In short, let's go to the Lal family to pick up your mission." Putting aside these troubles for a while, Ding Yuye said to Nangong Yin, "I hope the Lal family has not forgotten their purpose of staying here."

Nangong Yin stood up, her beautiful thin lips curved into a beautiful arc, which almost dazzled Ding Yuye's eyes.

"Lend your auspicious words."

The ancient houses of the Lal family are located in the inner city of the imperial capital, or in other words, the ancient houses of the 72 clans of the three major families are all in the inner city, with the palace as the center, distributed in the shape of stars and moons, and the Lal family is next to the three "planets" The brightest "satellite".

The simple solid wooden door, with a strong Wenya continental style architecture, even if there are no guards, the courtyard still exudes majesty, even if you stand outside the door, you can feel an invisible pressure.

There was no one guarding the door, at least most people couldn't see anyone, but as soon as Nangong Yin and Ding Yuye approached, a servant appeared from nowhere with a smile on his face, and saluted them respectfully.

"You two came to Laer's old house, what's your business?"

Even though they were servants, they still bowed down to salute them, but the sense of superiority that was ingrained in their bones was not lacking. However, because the servants were well-trained, they would not make others feel uncomfortable.

The Zhu Mingjie in Nangong Yin's hand did not move, indicating that this servant did not have the blood of the Lal family in his body, so he simply said: "Please go and inform your Patriarch, the son of the old man will fulfill the original agreement."

The last sentence was Bot's confession to Nangong Yin, if he met someone from the Lal family, he would say this sentence, and then they would know his purpose.

The servant looked at Nangong Yin dubiously, as if wondering if he was someone who came to make connections, and turned around after a while and walked in to report.Not long after, another person came out with an agitated expression, and the servant was standing respectfully behind him.

In front of the servant was a young man in his twenties, with a handsome appearance and a gentle temperament. The simple and clean blue gown made him look like a scholar and poet who had made great achievements, not a distinguished young master.

This person is the only son of the head of the Lal family, Xi Ya.

Sia was reading his favorite poetry collection in the room before receiving the servant's notification, but after hearing the servant's words, his heart skipped a beat, and he cherishes it so much that no one can touch it. Just like that, the collection of poems was thrown aside, and hurried out, saying that he wanted to welcome an unprecedented distinguished guest, and hurriedly asked people to find the owner of the Hester family who was meeting the prince in the palace.

The servant didn't know why the always indifferent Young Master Xi Ya was so excited, but he also understood one thing, that is, this young man who was more beautiful than Princess Adriatic in front of him was definitely an honored guest that could not be offended.

What the servant was thinking, Xi Ya didn't know, and she couldn't control it. The moment she saw Nangong Yin, Xi Ya was sure that he was the person that the Lal family had been waiting for for countless years. There was no other reason. The portrait of the Lord of Darkness is exactly the same.The Lord of Darkness has disappeared, and perhaps only the blood of the Lord of Darkness can possess such a heaven-defying appearance.

Xi Ya's excitement made Nangong Yin a little puzzled. Before he could say anything, Xi Ya bowed deeply to him and said, "Young master, the Lal family... We have been waiting for your arrival. For countless years."

Nangong Yin was startled, but he squinted his eyes calmly, and said: "Let's go in and talk about it."

In the spacious and bright hall, Xi Ya respectfully led Nangong Yin to the first seat, and waited for him to sit down before taking the first seat on his left. As for Ding Yuye, he had completely ignored him.

Sitting on the top seat, Nangong Yin didn't feel uncomfortable at all, and asked straight to the point: "How do you know my identity?" Could it be that there is some blood feeling?But he didn't feel anything at all.

Xi Ya smiled, took out a piece of silk that she carried close to her body from her bosom, and unfolded it lightly. On it was embroidered a man in black, standing among rose bushes, holding flowers and smiling, and the man's appearance , except that the eyes are pure silver, almost exactly the same as him.

"This is an embroidered portrait of the master. Every member of the Lal family has one, so when I saw the young master, I recognized it." Xi Ya's explanation was simple, but unexpectedly convincing: " After all, the master's appearance can be said to be unprecedented, and perhaps there will be no one in the future, only the young master who comes from the same lineage as the master can look so similar to the master."

Ding Yuye looked at the Lord of Darkness on the embroidered portrait, and then at Nangong Yin, who had a calm face, and muttered, "Is this just similar? It's exactly the same as before Nangong's other eye turned golden, okay?"

It turned out that it was his father... Nangong Yin's eyes dimmed, and he remembered the voice he heard when he entered Zhu Mingjie for the first time, as well as the blurred figure, plus this embroidered portrait, the image of his father finally appeared. The complete outline in Nangong Yin's heart also strengthened his idea of ​​finding his own life experience.

After calming down, Nangong Yin cleared all the miscellaneous thoughts in his mind, and said, "You should know the purpose of my coming to the Lal family. This is my first level. What is mine?"

"This..." Siya was stunned for a moment, and said helplessly: "The task announcement of the road of trial is managed by the Patriarch, and no one else knows, so please wait a moment, the young master, I have sent someone to find my father came back."

"Ah."

Nangong Yin nodded indifferently, and took out the third-level ice magic book from Zhu Mingjie to look at it.Ding Yuye, who was sitting below him, felt bored, so he pulled Xi Ya to chat, because he was brought by Nangong Yin, so Xi Ya, who had never been talkative, did not ignore him like ignoring others, and although Ding Yuye did not like poetry, , but under the influence of Shui Binyao, they have a certain understanding of poetry, so the two barely chatted happily.

After about 15 minutes like this, the peaceful atmosphere in the hall was broken by a burst of hurried footsteps. Hester, who had finally escaped from the palace, hurried in and saw Nangong who was also looking up at the first seat Yin, the tall and stalwart body trembled.

"Lord, master!" Hester seemed to see the all-powerful and invincible Lord of Darkness in ancient times, and his voice trembled with excitement.

Nangong Yin looked at the agitated Hester, feeling a little complicated.Such a powerful and stalwart man was trembling involuntarily at this time, just because he saw his face very similar to the Lord of Darkness, which made his previous speculation that the Lal family had betrayed their faith a joke.

However, he is very glad that this is a joke.

Hester quickly calmed down, but there was still fanaticism in his eyes looking at Nangong Yin.The belief of the Lal family is the Lord of Darkness, but Nangong Yin is the child of the Lord of Darkness, and he believes that he will never be a thing in the pool.

After knowing that Nangong Yin came for the mission of the Road of Trials, Hester took Nangong Yin into the forbidden area of ​​the Lal family without much hesitation. Of course, Ding Yuye was blocked outside. In order to save face, Hester had already pulled Ding Yuye out of the old house of Lal when he felt the pure and bright blood in Ding Yuye's body.

Ding Yuye received Hester's murderous look and touched his nose innocently.Blame me for having a bright bloodline?
