Claire was delighted and held Fan Liye's hand tightly.

Fan Jie'en looked at Fan Liye in disbelief. He wanted to stop him but didn't know what to say.

Pani's heart suddenly turned cold and he felt very uncomfortable. When he was about to speak, a faint voice interrupted him.

"Why do you think I would listen to you?" Fan Liye stopped laughing. "Do you think I would allow a traitor to go so far with me?"

Fan Liye's words froze Claire's smile on her face. She quickly explained, "I'm not... I'm not hiding my identity on purpose. I just..."

"It doesn't matter. I don't care." Fan Liye said calmly, "Claire, you are neither light nor heavy. Considering that I saved you, I will give you a chance to leave here."

Fan Liye pulled his hand away, and Claire suddenly became anxious: "I joined the intelligence team specifically for you. Don't you want to be human again?"

"You seem to be getting the news very slowly." Fan Liye said calmly, "Didn't Bazel inform you? I am a vampire, and I sacrifice for the vampires."

Claire shook her head. "I don't believe it. You clearly can't bear to part with it. You still have the pistol and dagger from the Blood Hunt. You clearly can't let go of them."

"You're talking about this." Fan Liye snorted and laughed, "Indeed, I've been a blood hunter for nine years, I can't let it go."

Claire's eyes lit up with joy. Just as she was about to say something, Fan Liye interrupted her: "But what I can't let go of is my skills as a blood hunter. Those skills are very useful against vampires. I only kept the silver because it's convenient and can be used."

Claire couldn't believe it: "But you told me all your weaknesses. Don't you want to be human again?"

"Why do you think so? Did you tell Blood Hunter my weakness?" Fan Liye said lightly.

Claire didn't answer. Fan Liye smiled and said, "Do you think I told you my weakness so you could tell the gods and the blood hunters in exchange for my return to the human world? Is my weakness a bargaining chip?"

Hearing this, Pani and Van Gene frowned.

Pani was the first to ask, "Little sir, how could you tell your weakness to the enemy?"

"I... I'm not an enemy..." Claire said quickly.

"Why not? I'm a vampire, and you're a blood hunter." Fan Liye said, "Do you know what a blood hunter is? It's a hunter that kills vampires. You want to kill me, so how can you not be an enemy?"

Claire quickly shook her head: "I won't kill you!"

Fan Liye laughed again: "You have told others my weaknesses."

"I didn't!" Claire said immediately, "I didn't say it, I didn't... I didn't betray you."

Fan Liye's face suddenly turned cold. He looked at Claire coldly, then smiled grimly: "You asked me before, what kind of person Sylvia is."

"She's similar to you, but she's very responsible. I used to not care about her until I became a vampire," Fan Liye said. "I went to human territory, and she pointed a gun at me and shot me. She stood firm in her beliefs, and I admire her for who she is."

"And you." Fan Liye's voice was cold. "Do you still remember what you are? A blood hunter. You are just like my student who abandoned his human identity and willingly allowed himself to be assimilated. You disgust me."

Claire was stunned and looked at him in disbelief: "Disgusted?"

"Yes." Fan Liye tilted his head and looked over, "Gregory, send her out. Whether she lives or dies has nothing to do with me."

Pani is not stupid. He knows exactly what Fan Liye is trying to say. Claire immediately becomes alert and looks at Pani, reaching for her pistol.

However, before Claire could react, Pani grabbed her arms and dragged her out.

"It's not very powerful, so it shouldn't have much impact on humans." Fan Liye analyzed it calmly and asked Fan Jie'en to close the door.

Not long after, Pani returned to the room with some blood on his body.

Fan Liye looked over and saw Pani covering his face awkwardly. He didn't know if he understood clearly.

"Killed?" Fan Liye asked indifferently.

"Will the young master be angry if I kill him?" Pani asked back.

Fan Liye thought for a moment and said calmly, "So what if I'm angry? You've already killed him."

"I don't want to make Mr. Xiao angry, so I won't do anything that would make him angry." Pani said seriously.

Seeing Pani like this, Fan Liye sighed: "No."

Pani smiled and said, "Young Master, you really care about me. I won't be blamed for such behavior."

"It's clear that the young master cares about Blood Hunter." Pani leaned over and smiled softly, "He didn't kill him."

Fan Liye raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that Pani didn't kill Claire. Didn't the other party hate Claire very much? Why would she choose to show mercy?

"What's the blood on your body?"

Pani took a look and explained, "If she gets hurt, she won't come here in vain. As for whether she can leave the vampire territory alive, that has nothing to do with me."

Fan Liye just smiled and didn't answer.

At night, Nibel planned to let Pani leave because Fan Liye was injured and needed rest.

Pani was shocked and hurried to see where Fan Liye was injured. Only then did she see the bandage on his ankle.

No wonder the other person was sitting all day, it turned out he was injured.

Pani was very sad and blamed himself for not discovering it earlier. However, before he could say a word of self-blame, he was pulled away by Nibel.

Fan Liye recuperated for a few more days. As a vampire, his injuries recovered quickly. After more than ten days, he was able to walk, and as long as he didn't exert much force, it wouldn't hurt too much.

Lance heard from someone that Fan Liye was injured, and he barged into his room carelessly.

"King." Lance leaned over, "You don't look well."

Fan Liye rubbed his temples: "There have been more noises recently, it's a bit noisy."

"What's that sound?" Lance asked.

Fan Liye came back to his senses and shook his head: "Nothing."

"Honestly, you're a bit too dedicated as a king," Lance said. "Angel wouldn't have done so much before. Even when there was internal strife, it was just physical, not eradication. Your last threat made those ancestors behave themselves, so why do you have to do so much?"

“…I am the king.” Fan Liye said lightly.

"I know, Angele was like that before, but he wasn't as tired as you, he wouldn't think too much." Lance leaned on the table and looked at Fan Liye, "I don't know what you are thinking.

You've been thinking about so much since you became king that I can't fathom it, and I can't imagine it. In the past, in your pursuit of becoming stronger, you were only tired, never exhausted."

Fan Liye smiled and said, "Did you come here specially to enlighten me?"

"Not really. I just think that you're only nineteen, which is really young for a vampire. You have a lot of time on your hands, so there's no need to rush into things." Lance sighed, "Look at me. I don't have many worries. I even cheer when you kill someone."

Fan Liye tilted his head and looked over: "You would rather I be like Angele?"

"If you're happy, that's fine." Lance stood up and slammed the table. "You're not feeling well. I came here to see how your injury is. But you look like you should just let go."
