Safe Retreat
Hearing Hanbani's words, Li Wei finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.
That youngest son held special significance for Hanbani, because among all of Hanbani's children, only this youngest son had so many powerful guards by his side.
This is also why Li Wei and An Hei decided to use him as their trump card.
Of course, the reasons that led Li Wei and his team to this decision were not so simple.
The Vampire Starfolk place the greatest importance on bloodline. Generally, when a newborn is born, their vampire bloodline will be tested, and the amount of vampire blood they contain directly reflects their value.
If one's bloodline score is above 50, they have basically met the most basic requirements for Vampire Starfolk. Above 60 is considered excellent, 70 is quite rare, and above 80 indicates that their future achievements will definitely be significant.
As for 90, that is the best of the best. Such newborns would be treated as treasures and protected and nurtured with all their might. Hanbani's youngest son is the 'best of the best' with an ancient vampire bloodline of 92.
Therefore, this child was of utmost importance to the Hannibal Family, which is why, even in his fury, Hanbani weighed the pros and cons and ultimately refrained from taking further action.
"It seems we won the gamble," Li Wei thought to himself.
"Prince Hannibal, since that's the case, let's agree on a time for the exchange. After all, under the current circumstances, I dare not make any deals with you."
"You'd better not try anything funny. Let me know about my son's situation first, otherwise you won't even be qualified to make a deal with me." Hanbani stared intently at Li Wei not far away, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
Just now, his full-force attack was actually blocked by the opponent's special defensive skill, which made Hanbani extremely angry. You should know that in the level 4 star field, very few people can withstand that full-force attack.
The sudden appearance of the massive metal gate truly opened Hanbani's eyes. Even as a top expert in a level 4 star system, he had never seen anything like it. Perhaps this was the power of other star systems.
But this only made him feel more insulted. He had already decided that after making sure his son was safe, he would kill the other party. Glancing at Nina in the distance, Hanbani understood that this woman had very pure vampire blood. If he could have a child with her, the purity of the bloodline would definitely be high.
Therefore, it's even less likely that they would let the other party take this woman away.
In some ways, this woman was more important than her youngest son.
Having made up his mind, Hanbani waited for the other party's reply. If the other party refused, then there must be a trick involved, so he would capture him directly and then torture him to extract a confession. He was not afraid that the other party would not reveal the truth.
Li Wei, on the other side, remained expressionless and said calmly, "Prince Hannibal, your youngest son is in our hands. You have no choice but to believe it. Since I was able to block your full-force attack just now, I can do the same now. As long as I give the signal, your son will be decapitated immediately. If you don't believe me, feel free to try."
Li Wei's approach was one of not giving an inch.
"You... fine, fine," Hanbani laughed angrily. He hadn't encountered anyone who dared to threaten him in a long time. He really wanted to rush over and capture this arrogant Earthlings, but after hesitating for a long time, he still brought his blade down.
He had witnessed his opponent block his attack, which meant that the opponent was prepared before threatening him. If his youngest son were to die for this, it would be something Hanbani could not bear.
Finally, after hesitating for a long time, Hanbani nodded.
"Hmph, so what if I let you leave temporarily? You can't escape from here. I've already had the teleportation arrays to other star systems sealed off. Not even a fly can escape my grasp."
With this thought in mind, Hanbani sneered and stepped back. The other S-rank expert did the same, and in just a moment, the two experts were separated by a considerable distance.
"Phew, that was close!" Li Wei felt like he had escaped a disaster, but now was not the time to relax. The first step of the plan had been achieved; now it was time to execute the second step.
That is, how to safely evacuate from this Blood Clan Star Domain.
In An Hei terms, the other party has two mindsets at this point. One is to capture him on the spot and force him to reveal the location of Little Hannibal. Of course, if Prince Hannibal cares about his youngest son, the possibility of doing so is not high.
Another method is to feign agreement to one's request, while secretly controlling all passages that allow one to leave the royal city, or even leave this star field, to trap them like turtles in a jar.
After all, once their side loses its last trump card, they will have absolutely no chance of fighting back against two S-class powerhouses.
However, how could Li Wei and An Hei, who had anticipated this step, not have a countermeasure?
Li Wei let out a long breath and turned to jump towards where Nina was.
The girl was terrified. Just now, during the fight between Li Wei and Hanbani, she was completely shocked by the full-force attack of Hanbani, an S-class powerhouse. She had made up her mind to die, but then the situation took an unexpected turn.
The mysterious young man not only blocked that terrifying attack, but also managed to escape unscathed from the two S-level powerhouses. However, due to the distance, she did not hear the content of their conversation, otherwise she would have been even more astonished.
"Nina, come with me, I'll explain later." Li Wei stepped forward and pulled Nina into the dense buildings. However, Li Wei knew that Hanbani's powerful Detection ability was always locked on him.
Li Wei was walking in the direction of the city gate.
Along the way, the vampires, awakened by the battle just now, gathered on both sides of the street. Some even took the initiative to block Li Wei. But at this moment, Li Wei had no time to pay attention to these trash. He directly unleashed an Infinite Blood Slaughter, and dozens of Vampire Starfolk within a hundred meters in front of him died instantly.
This time, no vampire dared to stop them anymore, so Li Wei and Nina arrived at the city gate smoothly.
By this time, the city gate guards had already received Prince Hannibal's order to close the gates, and unless one could fly, there was no way to escape.
However, Li Wei really can fly.
This time, he didn't use the flight card, because while it was fast enough for traveling, it was too slow for escaping. This time, Li Wei directly swung out the Thunder God's Sword, then, to Nina's astonishment, picked her up and jumped onto the Thunder God's Sword.
"Rise on your sword!"
With a flick of his wrist, the Thunder God's Sword, as if imbued with spirit, soared hundreds of meters into the sky like a bolt of lightning, piercing the clouds and disappearing into the void.
The vampire guards at the city gate stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.
Soon, more than a dozen figures flew out from the city. The Vampire Starfolk knew that these were vampire experts who had reached the * level. Only after reaching the * level could Vampire Starfolk possess the ability to control wings, allowing them to fly high in the sky at a speed that was by no means slow.
"Hmph, that alien won't get away. Prince Hannibal has already ordered the sealing of all teleportation arrays entering our star field. Within this star field, they have no chance of escape," the city guard captain said coldly. When mentioning Prince Hannibal, they all showed expressions of longing and reverence.
After all, that was an S-class powerhouse, a top-tier existence even in the Blood Clan Star Domain.
"We originally thought that our city guards could trap that alien inside the city after closing the gates, but we didn't expect him to escape using a strange ability. Now that he has escaped, there is no point in continuing to seal off the city." The guard captain thought for a moment and then ordered the city gates to be opened.
After all, keeping the city gates closed would cause some trouble for the vampires living inside the city.
An hour later, a convoy of garbage carts slowly passed through the city gate. The city guards originally wanted to take a look, but the stench emanating from the garbage carts made these self-proclaimed elegant vampires turn their noses away. They only glanced at it briefly before waving their hands to let the garbage carts pass.
The carriage slowly left the city and stopped in a remote valley after more than an hour. The driver looked around and then breathed a sigh of relief. When he took off his large hat to reveal his face, it was An Hei one.
"Finally out of the city. I didn't expect the plan to go so smoothly." An Hei got off the carriage, walked to the back of one of the carriages, and opened a hidden door from the bottom. Inside, Little Hannibal was tied up like a dumpling, his face flushed red. Above his head was a cart full of garbage, and the smell was indescribably disgusting.
Disgusting as it may be, this garbage was an indispensable helper when An Hei left the city. It was precisely because of this stinking garbage that he could cover up his and Little Hannibal's scent. Otherwise, the vampires with their keen sense of smell would have immediately discovered that the driver was also an alien, and Little Hannibal, who was hiding in the carriage, would have been discovered by them as well.
What was tied to Little Hannibal was no ordinary thing, but a python.
"Cards, the Binding Python! Li Wei's Card Magic is truly amazing! This conjured python has actually subdued this little guy!" An Hei smiled as he looked at the struggling but unable-to-move Little Hannibal.
"Next, we'll arrive at the meeting point we agreed on with Li Wei. He seems confident about how to escape this star system, but I bet Prince Hannibal has already sealed off all the teleportation arrays... Never mind, let's get to the meeting point first." An Hei dragged out Little Hannibal, took out a card Li Wei had given him, and then recited the activation incantation.
With a bang, a strange bird the size of an eagle appeared in front of him. This was a summoning spell; the bird could carry an object weighing around 100 kilograms for long distances.
After strapping Little Hannibal to the strange bird, An Hei himself took out a flight card, activated it, and the two of them took off and flew forward.
