Chapter 780: Chapter 393 - Everything for the Family_2

And so, it was not until this morning, when Mu You personally came to the Star Spirit World, that he recognized the faint smell of herbs emanating from Jonas at the very instant they met.

Mu You had previously conducted a special study on tainted blood and knew very well the ingredients within it. The aroma of herbs from Jonas corresponded exactly with these substances.

From this point, the identity of the mole was completely confirmed.

"Why?"

Jonas shook his head, "Of course, for the family, for all of you."

"For the family?"

"Ever since Liston disappeared a thousand years ago, I knew that the Ryan family would continue to decline, until extinction."

Jonas coughed a little, speaking weakly, "I was the only adult male in the family. I felt the heavy responsibility. I had to shoulder the duty to rejuvenate the family. And to achieve this, all it took was a vial of Ancestor’s Blood!"

"However, this vial of blood, to us, was an unreachable dream. Every hundred years, a drop of Ancestor’s Blood was produced. Based on the size and contribution of our family, even after thousands of years, it wouldn’t fall into our hands!"

Jonas was shaking his head with a bitter smile, "I’m not as talented as Liston. I could not obtain the blood by my own means, so I had no choice but to create another method..."

"So, you cooperated with the werewolves, forcing the clan to yield a vial of blood by the creation of the Wolf Poison targeted at the clan, for the antidote?" May said, coldly.

"I’m sorry. At that time, it was the only method I could think of..." Jonas said bitterly.

"Uncle, do you know, I almost died from the poison you created, at the hands of the werewolves!" May gritted her teeth and uttered these words.

Jonas stopped for a moment, looked at May, shook his head and smiled, "Actually, the werewolves would not have killed you at that time. This was part of my agreement with them. Otherwise, do you think you survived all these past assassinations during your daily hunts solely on your strength?"

"What about the other clan members?" May asked in sorrow, "Would it be alright to let so many members of the Blood Clan sacrifice for the rise of our family?"

"Yes, as long as I protect all of you, prevent you from living a life where you could die at any moment, it is okay to sacrifice some Vampires", Jonas calmly stated.

May stared in surprise at Jonas, unable to believe he could utter such words so casually.

"Although Brother has returned and obtained three droplets of Ancestor’s Blood easily by his own means, our family is already experiencing a revival. Why do you still..." May said.

"Did he really return?" asked Jonas, his usually gentle voice suddenly raised, startling May.

"May, haven’t you really noticed? Or did you already notice, and just simply did not want to believe? He’s not your brother. He’s a Fool in your brother’s skin, an imposter! Those from different clans have different minds. From my view, how can you entrust our family to a stranger with an unknown background?" Jonas eyes were filled with blood. He seemed to have been touched where it hurt. His face contorted in an ugly way.

May, stunned, stared at the frenzied Jonas. She took a moment to reply seriously, "All I know is the person I see, hear and feel is the same as my Brother from a thousand years ago. Regardless of how he appears elsewhere, as long as he takes this form in front of me, he will always be my Brother!"

"You..."

Jonas frowned as he looked at the serious May, sighed helplessly, "You’ve been influenced too deeply by the Blood Bond..."

"So is this why you refused to take the Blood of Heart Vessels before?" May sneered. She had previously considered whether to let Jonas take Brother’s Blood of Heart Vessels first. Jonas had refused and, under the pretense of needing to stabilize her newly ascended power, forbade her from feeding her Blood of Heart Vessels to Auntie and the other kids.

Jonas sighed, admitting frankly, "Yes, I don’t want to become a slave to an alien, and I don’t want my family to indirectly become slaves to another."

"In your eyes, am I no longer part of your family?" May asked.

"How could that be?" Jonas hurriedly shook his head, explaining, "I know that he treats you as his sister, he will not hurt you..."

"Then why do you think he will hurt your wife and kids?" May pressed.

"..." Jonas remained silent.

"Search your heart, Jonas. Since Brother returned, has he done anything to betray you or our family? He gave us blood, allowing every member of the family to be well-fed and respected by the clan. He also wants to lead the clan to ensure a prosperous future for the Blood Clan. Can’t you see these contributions? What could he possibly want from our poor and broken little family? In addition, even the great Duke has recognized him and chosen to cooperate with him. Why won’t you believe him?" May questioned one after another.

Jonas had no words to reply.

After a long silence, he sighed, "Perhaps, you are right..."

"However, I can’t turn back now... From the day I chose to cooperate with the werewolves, I had already plunged into the abyss. Since I’ve given them the upper hand, if I stop cooperating with them, the werewolves will expose me. At that time, the Ryan family will bear the name of traitors, be judged by the clan, and forever nailed to the pillar of disgrace among the Blood Clan. Thus, the only method left is... Cough, cough!"
