"Hahahahaha! My children, the carnival begins!"
Robert watched the crowd scream and his descendants revel, then grinned as he looked toward Mu Nuxin, who was being guarded in the corner by two vampire commanders.
"Robert, what are you doing?!"
Lu Qingyao could hardly believe it.
She knew there were some vampires present, but she had only assumed they were subordinates brought by Hong Shibin, an old business partner of the family.
She never expected Robert to be a vampire too, and to have persuaded Hong Shibin to attack them!
The Lu family's two elders had been ambushed and captured by Hong Shibin without any ability to resist, becoming hostages.
The others had no ability to resist the well-prepared vampires either.
"Tingting, I'm sorry. I really didn't know this would happen!"
Lu Qingyao shrank back two steps, looked at her good friend, and nearly burst into tears.
Yet Bai Tingting remained calm. She pressed her lips together, shook her head, and said, "I know you were deceived, but from now on... it would be better if we didn't see each other again."
Lu Qingyao burst into tears.
Robert watched the scene with interest and approached with a smile.
"I didn't expect all the important targets to gather in one place."
"Lu Qingyao, there's no need to be sad. You'll be turned into Bloodline Descendants by me. What 'later' could there possibly be? Hahahaha!"
Liu Ru's face was full of terror, but out of guilt for dragging her friends into this disaster, she stood in front of Mu Nuxin.
"You were the one who kidnapped my sister? I brought the money. Just as the letter said, I'll give you the money, and you let us go!"
"Hehe, how naive."
Robert grinned, ignored Liu Ru, and looked at the calm-faced Mu Nuxin behind her.
"Miss, you're Mu Ningwei's woman, aren't you?"
"If I turn you into a Bloodline Descendant and make you my daughter, wouldn't that make me Mu Ningwei's father? Hahahaha!"
At Robert's age, he was already immune to feminine beauty.
The only thing that interested him was seeing powerful enemies suffer humiliation.
Mu Nuxin revealed an angry expression, her gaze toward Robert icy cold.
Robert laughed. "I like that look. Only then will I feel a little pleasure after turning you into an obedient slave—"
"You really want to die."
A cold voice came from behind him.
"!"
Robert was greatly alarmed. He suddenly discovered that his entire body had stiffened, his movements sealed by a powerful restraining force.
Even with the strength of an Intermediate Monarch, he could not break free instantly!
What frightened Robert even more was this.
As a vampire Monarch and an expert of the undead side, he had not even noticed someone appearing behind him!
Mu Ningwei stood atop Robert's shadow. Feeling the intense struggling force coming from Robert's body, he knew the restraint could only last another two seconds.
Mu Ningwei acted decisively. His eyes turned black as ink as the Erase Magic Eye activated, and Ultimate Dark Power erupted.
The extreme aura of darkness made Robert tremble with fear. A massive hole opened in his back, flesh and blood silently erased into nothingness, revealing his bright-red heart trapped in place.
A Monarch-level defense was utterly incapable of resisting Ultimate Dark Power!
Mu Ningwei reached out and grabbed that cold heart.
This was a vampire's vital weakness!
Robert's pupils dilated. Pain covered his face, and the force of his struggle immediately weakened until he could no longer move.
He felt the terrifying dark power erupting from that palm.
Robert's expression filled with horror.
No, don't!
Squelch—!
Mu Ningwei suddenly exerted force, tore Robert's heart out, and casually tossed it aside.
Fei Yi's figure emerged. Smiling sweetly, she caught the vampire heart, her five fingers extending spikes that pierced its surface and refined the immense blood energy within.
"Mmm~ Although it smells somewhat rotten and cannot compare to my King's essence at all, it can barely be considered a great tonic."
The vampire heart rapidly withered.
Fei Yi's aura grew increasingly powerful as it spread without restraint, crushing everyone present.
The Bloodline Descendants throughout the floor had been celebrating just moments ago. Now, all of them lay prostrate on the floor, trembling as they stared in terror at the hole in Robert's back.
As a Monarch, Robert possessed formidable vitality and did not die even after losing his heart.
However, his strength had been greatly reduced and he was severely injured. Unable to break free from Mu Ningwei's Shadow Element restraint, he could only watch in despair as Fei Yi approached.
"Lady Marquis!"
The two female bodyguards knelt on one knee with fervent expressions, welcoming their Queen!
Fei Yi gave a slight nod. Her sharp claws pierced Robert's abdomen and drank the dense blood energy, rapidly turning him into a dried corpse.
Robert, the vampire Marquis, had fallen!
"Ugh... urgh... aaaarghhh—"
Several vampires clutched their hearts, veins bulging as they let out agonized howls.
Robert was the source of their bloodline.
With Robert's fall, they—at most commander-level—would swiftly die, turning into pools of rotten black blood and vanishing.
Terrified, they knelt before Fei Yi.
"Lady Marquise, please take us in! We are willing to pledge loyalty to you!"
"You're a little too noisy."
Fei Yi raised her hand. Blood-energy tentacles surged forth, piercing their hearts and greedily drawing out their blood energy. In just a few seconds, several more dried corpses were made.
The remaining vampires fell silent with fear.
Swaying as though drunk, Fei Yi placed her right hand over her chest, lifted her skirt with her left, and elegantly bowed to Mu Ningwei.
"Thank you for your reward, my King!"
Silence.
The vampires prostrate on the floor and the despairing, regretful humans—everyone who remained conscious—was shocked by the scene before them.
Robert had been incomparably imposing just moments ago, intending to control all of them. Yet within a few dozen seconds, he had become a shriveled corpse.
Fei Yi's aura was unfathomable, even more terrifying than Robert's. Yet after killing Robert, she respectfully called a young man her King!
Could he be an ancient noble even more terrifying than a vampire Marquis—a Duke who existed only in legends, or perhaps even a Prince?
"Brother Ningwei, killing Robert just like that was letting him off too easily!"
While no one else dared make a sound—
Mu Nuxin angrily clenched her little fists, ran up to Robert's dried corpse, and kicked it twice, unable to vent the fury in her heart.
"You're Mu Ningwei!"
Hong Shibin cried out in alarm.
As the only vampire in the room who had not been pressed to the ground by Fei Yi's aura, Hong Shibin wore a terrified expression. His two claws gripped the heads of the Lu family elders as he gave an awkward smile.
"Mu Ningwei, let's talk this out. Robert was the one who provoked you, and you've already dealt with him. Could you let me go?"
"I have intelligence to offer! Robert wasn't the only one targeting you. Another force was involved as well!"
Hong Shibin was truly terrified.
He knew Mu Ningwei was powerful and had heard that he had slain the Silver Sky Lord.
But that had been while Fei Yi protected and assisted him, in a safe environment where he had cast Light Element Super Tier magic several times to accomplish it.
Hong Shibin had believed that as long as he did not appear before Mu Ningwei, what could Mu Ningwei possibly do to him?
Who could have imagined that Mu Ningwei was not merely formidable in the Light Element—his Shadow Element was equally monstrous.
He had actually brought Fei Yi right under their noses, and the two vampire Monarchs had not noticed a thing!
Damn it, vampires were a race inclined toward dark attributes!
Thinking of the Ultimate Dark Power Mu Ningwei had displayed while killing Robert just now, Hong Shibin shuddered violently.
He had lived a long time and seen the magic of many Shadow Element Peak Tier experts, but none had ever given him such a terrifying feeling!
Could Mu Ningwei be a Shadow Element Calamity Bringer?
Damn it, Robert, you were a complete idiot [beep—]!
Of all people, why did you have to provoke Mu Ningwei?!
