Chapter 73

The faces of everyone in the audience changed when they heard Xiao Yu's words. In fact, they were naturally aware of Xiao Yu's arrival before they even entered the city. Housekeeper Mo had sent an envoy a long time ago to inform Wang Tian Hu of Xiao Yu's arrival. But no one gave the noble face of the descending family.

Otherwise, Wang Tian Hu would not have acted that way. He would meet Xiao Yu at the city gate if the Xiao family were in his prime.

Nevertheless, a Duke was a Duke. The family could have declined but the title was there. If the nobility of the lower aristocracy meets the nobility of the higher aristocracy then he must follow the rules and greet the nobleman according to the rules. It was not the rule of the Sky Lion Dynasty but a rule that had existed for thousands of years. Society is built on a hierarchy and those at the bottom of the pyramid must show respect to those at the top.

There were a few places where they looked down on the contempt for the title given by the emperor. There were lower level nobles who dared to challenge the declining high nobles. However, if those lower level nobles dared to act presumptuously then it meant that they would go against the Sky Lion Dynasty.

Actually, the people in the hall were discussing the annexed territory several hundred miles away from here. It was the result of the lord of the region disrespecting and giving tribute to the Sky Lion Dynasty. In fact, most of them did not send tribute. However, that was the reason for others who were eyeing the region to attack him. The Wang Family has no enemies or opponents here. However, others interested in their territory could carry out Wang Tian Hu's actions as a proper reason to support Xiao Yu and attack him.

They live in a sensitive time. Most were against the Sky Lion Dynasty but they could not voice their opinions widely.

It was like the Spring and Autumn Period in Chinese history. The followers were not completely subject to the emperor's orders. They do not pay tribute or taxes. However, no one dared to go directly against the emperor. On the surface it was the emperor who controlled the kingdom but in reality there were many small kingdoms. As a result, the Warring States period began.

No one in the hall cared about Xiao Yu because they thought he was a lost child who did nothing but eat, drink, and engage in debauchery.

It could be blamed on Housekeeper Mo because he did not report the situation. Initially, he sent an envoy who said that the situation in the Lion town was bad. Especially on the way he did not send a full report because he had lost his magic necklace. He could not send this information through the envoy. He had decided to tell Wang Tian Hu the first thing when they returned to Wang's house. But he did not think that Xiao Yu would act like a bastard and enter the mansion by force.

Moreover, Xiao Yu had ordered Grom, Tyrande, and the other grunts to put on the robe so as not to cause extra attention. He is not afraid of trouble but does not want extra publicity. Orcs and elves were too rare in this world. Moreover, Tyrande's appearance was out of this world.

As a result, when Grom and Tyrande entered the hall with Xiao Yu, the other nobles thought they were ordinary guards. They would not be so arrogant if they knew that Xiao Yu had orc bodyguards and elves.

Xiao Yu had a dragon with himself. But it was too young and its horn had not grown. So most of the others thought that it was only a high-level demonic beast with dragon characteristics.

Nevertheless, the Duke's title was a hereditary title. Xiao Yu had inherited the title of Xiao Zhan Tian as the Grand Duke of the Sky Lion Dynasty.

Wang Tian Hu only counted. His level was much lower than Duke's. Although Wang Tian Hu was an elder of Xiao Yu in terms of relationships but because of Xiao Yu's title he had to pay respect to Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu naturally did not have to respect Wang Tian Hu when the others did not.

All the rules and laws of the Sky Lion Dynasty protected Xiao Yu on the surface until now.

Moreover, Xiao Yu dared to say that he could free Earl Yun from his status. That meant the nobles who were tied to the orthodox faction would speak on behalf of Xiao Yu. In the worst case, Earl Yun would receive punishment.

Everyone present was struck by lightning. They all unconsciously stood up. Wang Tian Hu, Hue, the third level magician and everyone else did. They would not be afraid if the threat was uttered by any duke. However, they knew that Xiao Yu was different. He was a Grand Duke and his father Xiao Zhan Tian had saved the kingdom. The dynastic emperor might not remember or care about the other dukes but Xiao Yu was still someone to be guarded.

They could secretly kill Xiao Yu and no one would examine the situation. That's how Carrie acts. However, fighting the Grand Duke on the surface means you disrespect the emperor which is a great crime.

“Nephew Yu, uncle did not come out to greet you because I did not know of your arrival! It was the fault of Housekeeper Mo that he did not tell me. He will be punished.” Wang Tian Hu smiled and said to change the atmosphere.

Wang Tian Hu was a natural politician as he was able to rule his flourishing territory for many years.

Xiao Yu waved his hand with a smile: “I will not dare to ask uncle Wang out to greet me at the city gate. My words are not meant for you. ”

Xiao Yu cursed in his heart: “Do you not know? You fucking bastard! I don't want to use my identity to suppress you but your mother didn't teach you manners! If I hadn't put you in your place, then you'd think that you're an important person!”

Xiao Yu looked at the maid: “Take me a cup of tea. I'm tired of cursing these fools.”

The servant did not ignore Xiao Yu as he saw that even Wang Tian Hu was standing silently before Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu sipped tea and looked at everyone: “Sit down. Why are you all standing? I am just a junior ... "

Xiao Yu looked like a villain to those who abused his title.

Xiao Yu looked at Wang Tian Hu after everyone sat down: “Uncle Wang, there is a member of the Xiao family standing outside. Can you call him for tea? ”

Wang Tian Hu was shocked for a moment. However, he understood the words behind Xiao Yu's words when he remembered Siwen standing outside. His heart was tight for a moment. She wanted to remarry Siwen but it seemed that it would be a difficult thing.

Xiao Yu's words “ada family member Xiao standing outside” tell Wang Tian Hu that Siwen is part of the Xiao family. He could not be treated as part of the Wang family anymore.

Xiao Yu looked at Wang Tian Hu and whispered in his heart: "You are still laughing ... I gave you some face and you can act so ... It's like you owe me millions."

Siwen quickly entered the place and stood in ceremony: "Siwen greeted father."

Wang Tian Hu said: “Siwen, go and meet your mother. He has thought of you.”

Siwen replied: “Yes, dad. I'm going to go visit him now. However, I have brought a small gift. I hope you will be satisfied with that. ”

Wang Tian Hu said: "It's nice to see that you haven't forgotten filial piety."

Siwen stepped forward and gave him a smooth box.

“Count Wang, you are blessed! Your daughter should have brought a very nice gift to you. Will you show it to us? ”

Earl Yun who was scolded by Xiao Yu was furious. He saw there was an opportunity when Siwen brought a gift and wanted to attack Xiao Yu.

They knew that the Lion town was in decline. So they believed that Siwen could not bring anything good. Needless to say the gift will be of little value. Earl Yun grinned as he looked at Xiao Yu.

Wang Tian Hu also understood Earl Yun's intentions. He wanted to take the opportunity to show the status of the Lion town in front of everyone. She must pave the way for Siwen's remarriage by showing that she has a bad life there.

Wang Tian Hu smiled: "Of course ..."

Wang Tian Hu opened the box. Everyone's eyes were focused on the gift. They were about to ridicule Xiao Yu. They were all unhappy with Xiao Yu even though he did not scold them. But he had made them stand in ceremony to show him respect as grand duke.

Wang Tian Hu opened the gift box and they saw the transparent glass placed side by side neatly.

They were all ready to verbally attack when they saw a pair of glasses. A dignified woman would never bring back such glasses when visiting her home. It was just too bad a gift.

Earl Yun first spoke: “She's a good girl. He thought his father needed a few cups to drink wine.hahaha.Didn't expect that the Lion town could give such a precious gift.”.

“Of course.. This cup set will cost at least tens of gold coins. If you are thinking of bringing them from the Lion city then the value will increase. Nevertheless, it would be much better if Mister Xiao bought it from the streets here. However, it reflected the piety of Wang Tian Hu's daughter as she had brought him from thousands of miles away.” Hue was also ridiculed.

“I must say that the true value of this set of glasses lies in the box. It must have been made from Kam who grew up in the North. Value of hundreds of gold coins.” Another noble said in a serious tone.

“In fact, I think it is the specialty of Lion city. Otherwise, why would Duke Xiao let the young miss carry such an item from there? ” Others take the opportunity to mock.

One after another the nobles tried to mock Xiao Yu.

However, Xiao Yu simply sat quietly without a care. Siwen wanted to explain the value of the glasses but could not get a chance because of the other nobles. He saw that Xiao Yu did not speak so he did not respond as well.

"All of you! It's not about the money. The value of this set is because my little girl took it from afar. Lion City is on the decline so I am honored that my girl can still find a gift to bring her to me. Wang Tian Hu waved to stop the crowd. There was a trace of humiliation on everyone's face.

Xiao Yu listened to everyone and looked at Wang Tian Hu as he quietly said: "The old man doesn't know how it will end."

Xiao Yu smiled: “Uncle Wang was right. The city of lions is on the decline so we can't get any better than this. If Uncle Wang doesn't mind then I want to take out of my wine and use that cup to make toast.

Xiao Yu flicked his finger and Grom handed him a bottle of red wine.

Xiao Yu poured red wine into one of the cups. The crystal-clear glass that originally began to change as the wine filled the cup. The texture of the glass changed as if it was a solid object. After which, red lights flashed and strange images appeared on the glass. It was as if many fish were swimming in the ocean. Xiao Yu lifted the cup and a light appeared from the glass reflecting the projection on the wall. Many fish swim in the waters. Every now and then, they jumped out and splashed water. That's a very real picture.

Everyone was surprised to see it. Earl Yun shouted in surprise: “Isn't that the legendary ghost glass? It is said that only 100 sets were made. And now there are only less than twenty sets left!”.

Xiao Yu looked at Earl Yun: “Oh! Earl Yun was a knowledgeable person. This set is too shabby for me to drink from it. I want to give it to someone. So when we came to see uncle Wang, I decided to give it to brother-in-law for uncle Wang. I know it is not very valuable so I hope uncle Wang will receive my gift because I have brought it from thousands of miles away.”

Xiao Yu slapped the faces of everyone in the hall.
