Blood Frenzy Potion. Developed fifty years ago by the dark sorcerer Tiamat of the Asamait Clan, it was later destroyed in large quantities due to Tiamat's subsequent betrayal, leaving only a few remaining within the Asamait Clan. This potion was specifically designed to target vampires, significantly amplifying the negative powers within their blood.
Those who consume it will enter a Berserk State within the next fifteen minutes, exhibiting intense and indiscriminate aggression, alongside a tremendous desire for sensual pleasures.
Information about the purple potion flooded into Garen's mind.
Indeed, Garen had not blocked his connection with Embrace; what he saw would also be perceived by Su Ye.
Garen looked at Chilisen, whose face was filled with confidence, and couldn't help but feel a bit sorry for him. If he knew that Garen and Su Ye were not in a master-servant relationship but rather connected through Embrace, he might just collapse…
At that moment, Su Ye used his consciousness to urge Garen to accept the potion.
After a moment of silence, Garen said, "What can I gain from this?"
"Power? Wealth? Authority? I can offer you all of these," Chilisen's gaze completely relaxed. If Garen agreed outright, it would make him anxious, but turning it into a transaction alleviated his worries.
"Not enough," Garen shook his head.
"What do you want then?" Chilisen narrowed his eyes.
Garen thought for a moment and replied, "The blood of Abyss."
Chilisen's expression changed instantly, and beside him, the Red-Haired Woman exuded a chilling killing intent as her longsword was drawn three centimeters with a sharp sound.
The atmosphere in the room became tense. The name Abyss represented supreme faith among vampires, and the one most familiar with Abyss was none other than Chilisen of the Asamait Clan. He understood very well that Garen's request was akin to asking for an outrageous price.
Chilisen stared intently at Garen, and after a moment, finally spoke, "Pleasure to cooperate."
...
Watching Garen leave the room, the Red-Haired Woman revealed a look of shock.
"My lord, are you serious?"
"Though the blood of the Abyss is precious, it was meant for future generations." Chilisen fiddled with the ring on his finger. "If this can help eliminate Su Ye, then I still come out ahead. Don't you think so, Scarlet Moon?"
Scarlet Moon fell silent for a moment before responding, "The blood left by the Abyss is limited, and this concerns the future development of Asamait for the next hundred years, even a thousand. I still cannot agree."
"I feel the same." Chilisen pondered carefully for a moment, then sniffed his nose. "Then we can just kill him too when the time comes."
"Black eating black?" Scarlet Moon blinked in surprise.
"No, no, no. In eliminating Su Ye, we are the embodiment of justice," Chilisen said leisurely.
"Alright." Scarlet Moon excitedly licked her lips. "Now I agree!"
...
Upon returning to the hall, most of the Clan Representatives had already taken their places.
As Garen scanned the room, information about these individuals was instantly transmitted to him through Embrace.
First, there was the gentleman surrounded by a throng of admirers, followed closely by his attendant with blonde hair and slit pupils.
"Acheron. Heir of the Reimer Clan, thirty-seven years old, and a Mid-level Blood Dancer. He is also a direct descendant of the Second Ancestor. The Reimer Clan has developed rapidly over the past century, firmly securing its position as the second strongest clan, just behind the Revernon Clan."
"Behind him is his attendant known as Lion's Eye, a creature birthed by the Reimer Clan. Built upon the Bloodline of the Beast Clan Demon Lion, it has integrated the Bloodline of the Second Ancestor, perfectly merging within the bloodline family, specifically tasked with protecting Acheron. Its exact strength is unknown, but it is at least an Advanced Blood Dancer."
Of course, not everyone was eager to approach Acheron; some chose to ignore him entirely, like the man with silver eyes.
"Lucifer. Master of the Sertate Clan, ranked fourth, and servant to Mokfande. He possesses a unique ability called 'Devour.' Twenty-seven years ago, he consumed seven fallen Celestial Race beings in Dead Man's Gorge, embodying both Celestial Race and bloodline powers. He is recognized as the strongest among all attendants, though his exact strength remains unclear."
The ability to devour seven Celestial Race beings indicated Lucifer's extraordinary nature. The fact that Mokfande had managed to subdue Lucifer further demonstrated his formidable power; however, it was unfortunate that Mokfande had yet to arrive in the hall, leaving his information undisclosed.
During his observations, Garen noted that while the strengths of these Clan Representatives were well-documented, details about their attendants were largely vague.
This aligned with Garen's earlier thoughts; revealing one's full combat capabilities recklessly was indeed foolish. In essence, attendants should not be considered mere servants; they were more like "followers." Of course, Garen and Su Ye's relationship was more complex.
These followers were cultivated as trump cards by various clans; such beings thrived on mystery. The less transparent they were to their opponents, the more likely they could play unexpected roles at critical moments.
Naturally, there were many mysterious trump cards and plenty of foolish individuals as well.
Garen's gaze fell upon Tastandin.
"Tastandin, heir of the Gargoyle Clan ranked sixth and servant to Kachin. Once a traitor of the Bervant Clan, he returned after seven years in exile to pledge allegiance to the Gargoyle Clan. Forty-two years old and an Advanced Blood Dancer. He wields a special weapon: Freezing Command."
Following this were some details regarding Freezing Command.
Garen paid no mind to the situation, focusing instead on the woman with golden curls. After listening to Tastandin's explanation, her eyes were filled with rage, but as many were still watching her, she quickly replaced it with a seductive gaze.
However, when Garen saw Kachin's message, he couldn't help but pause.
"Kachin: A bitch."
Was that all?
Garen's lips twitched slightly. Although he had suspected that Kachin and Su Ye were not on good terms, he hadn't expected it to reach such a level...
Still, he had to admire her for this. After all, there were very few people in this world who could live well while being hated by Su Ye.
At that moment, Garen felt a chill behind him.
"You are much slower than them." Garen did not turn around.
"Got caught up with a bitch," Su Ye replied, his voice somewhat weary but still laced with mocking laughter. "And you dare to demand Abyss's blood? Aren't you afraid Chilisen will come after you?"
Having been with the blood clan for over two months, Garen certainly knew of Abyss's existence.
In fact, just mentioning that name made Garen feel uncertain. After all, Abyss held special significance for Chilisen and the entire blood clan. Fortunately, Chilisen harbored a strong desire to kill Su Ye and not only agreed readily but also alleviated most of his concerns regarding Garen.
At that moment, Chilisen and Scarlet Moon happened to walk into the hall.
Garen's gaze shifted toward them.
“Chilisen, the master of the Asamait Clan, ranked third. A direct descendant of the first Progenitor, Abyss, she has exchanged Abyss's blood for immense benefits twenty-one times, solidifying her position just behind the Revernon Clan and Reimer Clan. At one hundred twenty-four years old, she is an Advanced Blood Dancer.”
Abyss is the first Progenitor of the blood clan. Much like Agu Anan the Great of the Holy Empire, he is revered as a deity by later generations, shrouded in legend.
So when Garen demanded Abyss's blood, Chilisen displayed that expression; from another perspective, it was akin to directly asking Chilisen for her ancestor's blood.
However, upon seeing the subsequent information, Garen was completely stunned.
“Besides those twenty-one times, Chilisen has privately traded Abyss's blood fifty-six times, with fifty-one of those transactions being interrupted. It fell into…”
No wonder Chilisen was willing to sell her ancestor's blood to kill Su Ye…
This woman had stolen Abyss's blood a staggering fifty-one times!
“So you just accepted it?” Garen felt a strange sympathy for Chilisen as he touched the potion in his pocket.
“Yeah, I don’t care,” Su Ye shrugged.
“Then what do you care about?” Garen glanced at Su Ye and casually remarked, “Beryl Mountain?”
Su Ye’s gaze suddenly turned cold as she stared at Garen.
“I’ll keep it a secret for now,” Garen wouldn’t voluntarily reveal what he saw in Sanctuary; he merely wanted to see how Su Ye would react to the name Beryl Mountain, and the result was evident.
Su Ye returned to her languid demeanor and replied lightly, “With this little time, you should pay more attention to the people here. This place is far more complex than you imagine.”
"For example, the one who gives you a gift is right here."
The gift referred to was the Blood Finger.
Garen surveyed the entire hall, his expression gradually becoming serious as he pondered.
In this hall, people wore smiles on their faces; the men exuded a gentlemanly demeanor, while the women were graceful and dignified. However, this was merely a facade.
Here, some had already issued threats in advance, some harbored murderous intentions, some had taken action, and others lurked beneath the surface...
No one knew who would reveal their fangs in the next moment.
Who would collapse?
At that moment, the tightly shut door slowly opened.
At the deepest part of the banquet hall, an elderly man with gray hair turned around, revealing a warm smile.
He was the head of the Revernon Clan, currently the highest leader of the entire bloodline.
Somaroth.
