What Gu Yan didn't know was that his slap sent shockwaves throughout the West and even the world.

After all, vampires are different from werewolves; they live in places unknown to the world.

They called themselves nobles, loved pleasure, and had contact with many high-ranking officials and families; even ordinary people had heard of them.

...

In a big city.

"Oh, look at the big screen, isn't that where the William family lives?"

"How did it turn into ruins?" a blond man exclaimed.

"What, the William family that has been around for over a thousand years?"

Isn't it something that even the country has to be wary of?

"How could it have come to this?" a middle-aged man with bald patches on his hair exclaimed in shock. "If even a family like this can be in danger, then what about us commoners...?"

"Could it be that they threatened the royal family, so they directly used high-energy thermal weapons to wipe them out in order to consolidate their position?" a man with gold-rimmed glasses said, stroking his chin.

...

"Haha, seeing that countries that have a grudge against us are all in turmoil lately, I feel so relieved," commented a user with the ID "Eighteen Consecutive Shots" who had bypassed the Great Firewall.

"Oh, there are like-minded people here. But what you said makes a lot of sense. I've been sitting at home eating sunflower seeds and watching their miserable state." A person with the ID "Senior Otaku" replied.

"You guys are no good either. I even arranged to meet a foreign woman and a Japanese girl yesterday so I could take revenge myself," commented a user with the ID "Double Slash."

In no time, his replies reached 99+.

Everyone was asking for directions...

It's clear that everyone wants to vent their anger personally.

...

The Western elite families were in a panic. The common people didn't know the details of the William family, but they knew them well, and were very familiar with them.

Moreover, they were absolutely certain that the method of destruction was not caused by firearms, but by a powerful individual they had never heard of before.

The Partridge family.

"Contact all the families in the West that have A-level experts. I need to discuss countermeasures with them," a blond middle-aged man said solemnly.

“Yes,” a guard replied immediately.

Just as he was about to make a move, an old man suddenly ran in from outside and said seriously, "Clan leader, the Silas family just called and said they want to discuss matters concerning the vampires. Same place as before."

The blond man sighed; it seemed someone was even more panicked than him.

...

In a conference room, a dozen or so middle-aged and elderly people were watching a scene of ruins on a large screen.

Everyone exuded an aura of authority, clearly indicating that they held high positions; some even had stars adorning their shoulders.

"This destructive power is almost comparable to a swarm of missiles. Is this really something humans did?" a general said incredulously.

No one knows more about military matters than him. He has seen similar scenes in his acting roles, but they were always created by countless artillery shells.

"Yes, everyone knows about the vampires. About half a month ago, they suddenly stopped their activities, and then William's castle was destroyed."

"I'm certain they've offended some powerful figure," said the old man sitting in the center.

"Could it be that those eccentric figures within the Vatican have come out and started a conflict with the vampires?" an old man mused.

"By the way, they've been searching for a certain type of stone."

More than a decade ago, they suddenly broke into my estate and ransacked it.

"What's most infuriating is that when I arrived, I saw a group of people bullying my wife," a middle-aged man said indignantly. He couldn't forget the sight of his wife surrounded by a dense crowd, her body covered in injuries.

“Then send people to keep a close watch on the Papacy. It’s very likely that they are involved,” the old man said, his eyes lowered. One of his queens had also been humiliated and brutally murdered.

...

Meanwhile, Gu Yan was on his way to the Holy See, enjoying Celeste's tenderness, completely unaware that his slap had caused so much trouble.

The ghost soldiers outside could only ignore the soft humming and struggle to carry the sedan chair. There was nothing they could do; their master was an incredibly powerful being in every aspect.
