"You're back so soon. It seems the mission went well, but why do I feel like you brought back less than expected?"
Natsuki Watanabe licked the Crimson Sweets, her sweet face filled with suspicion. "Where's Yun Zhi Yue? You didn't take the opportunity to drain her dry, did you?"
Anjie Ryougu frowned, his handsome face darkening. "I wish I could have, but could I have taken her on?"
"How did the mission go?" Yuhun Gu asked.
Anjie Ryougu lowered his head and murmured, "Most of Noble Island has been cleared out by Zhi Yue Fei Ying."
Gray Bird Suzuki spun a dagger in his hand, pausing abruptly. "Everything was cleared out by Zhi Yue Fei Ying? This mission was assigned to you two by our lord, right? What did you do?"
With dark red eyes fixed on him, Anjie Ryougu lowered his head even further. "My lord, the Fallen Vampire on Noble Island seems to be the work of the Xu Fang Clan."
Morei Xufang had many subordinates stationed there. I was caught off guard and later Zhi Yue Fei Ying found that place too. We fought for a long time; I got injured and used a scroll to teleport, but it only works for one person.
Gray Bird Suzuki chuckled. "Let me translate that for you: as soon as you and Zhi Yue Fei Ying entered the city, neither of you liked the other and started executing your mission. In the end, she was serious about purifying things while you got captured upon entering. Zhi Yue Fei Ying couldn't find you to regroup and had to delve deeper into enemy territory to rescue you. You were trapped and couldn't fight back; Zhi Yue Fei Ying must have had a tough time being surrounded. Seeing things going south, you abandoned her and came back alone while still hesitating about whether to tell the truth for fear of punishment from our lord. I mean, even if our lord hasn't acknowledged it yet, Zhi Yue Fei Ying is still under his command. Is what you did really right?"
Anjie Ryougu felt a surge of anger and wanted to shout that it wasn't like that at all, but he couldn't explain himself. That woman seemed indeed intent on finding him. Realizing this made him feel guilty.
Just as he opened his mouth to explain, he met those dark red eyes again. The pain of memories being extracted made Anjie Ryougu collapse to the ground, clutching his head and screaming.
The others who had been watching in silence now stood serious, not expecting their lord to be angry. Did this mean he acknowledged Zhi Yue Fei Ying?
The space around them began to shatter and shift continuously until it stabilized, revealing them in a basement on Noble Island.
The power of the Pureblood Lord was terrifying!
Looking at the state of the basement, even those from Vampire Clan gasped in shock. Was Zhi Yue Fei Ying really still alive?
Anjie Ryougu exclaimed in horror, "How could this happen?"
It wasn't that the scene was particularly bloody; on the contrary, the basement that had been messy when he left was now impeccably clean.
Except for Zhi Yue Fei Ying and Morei Xufang, all the vampires sat at the long table in the center of the basement, smiling as if they were attending a banquet. But these vampires were all dead!
Wanye Watanabe, with his orange hair, threw a piece of candy at one of them. The moment it made contact, all those seated turned to ash, as if everything they saw was merely an illusion. He brushed his orange locks aside, his strikingly handsome face filled with pity.
"My lord," Wanye Watanabe said, "this kind of power must belong to the Pureblood Lord. Once she makes her move, there will be no escape for her."
Natsuki Watanabe, wrapping the candy in her hands, innocently remarked, "What bad luck! Just after leaving the academy, I run into the Pureblood Lord. Where's the body?"
Among the remaining Pureblood Lords, there were no females. Yun Zhi Yue was a girl with extremely high blood purity. Do you think she might have been taken advantage of?
Isn't that a slap in our lord's face? It's our lord's possession; he hasn't even had a taste yet—how could it be given to outsiders?
Everyone turned their gaze sharply toward Natsuki Watanabe. What outrageous words was she uttering!
