As Shu Xubai's hoarse voice fell into his pleading words, Yan Liu couldn't help but step forward, staring at him with a somber expression, her eyes flashing with shock and disbelief.

The vampire, who never bowed his head to anyone, lowered his noble head and bent his back to beg his master for a completely unrelated little phoenix.

What is liking? What is love? How can I make him fascinated? How can I make my master fascinated?

You see, when he fights with his master, even if his master drains his blood and stabs him countless times, he will only arrogantly mock his master, saying that he is so weak and pathetic. Begging is simply impossible for him; he would never utter a single word of begging to his master!

Now, everything has changed!

Love and death changed him, making him unlike himself, no longer the aloof, elegant, and noble vampire!

Liking and love are indeed things you shouldn't touch, things you really can't touch. If you touch them, you won't be yourself anymore. If you touch them, you'll have weaknesses. If you touch them, you'll end up asking others for help.

She would take this as a warning and not like or love anyone except her master. That way, she would be herself and would not be like Shu Xubai.

Quanjian, with her sensitive and empathetic nature, had tears in her eyes. She clung to Azhi's arm, pouting, thinking that while the handsome guy was good-looking and did things well, his pleading with others was so heartbreaking.

Especially when he cut open his own chest without any hesitation and took out his heart, blood, and flesh, he didn't even flinch. What kind of god-like, supreme man is this?!

Agares stood ramrod straight, his eyes lowered, his fingers clenched into fists, looking at them, staring at them, facing them. He didn't know what he should do to wake his wife, or to relieve Lord Shu Xubai's pain!

Shu Xubai had his arm around Jiang Si, half of his body pressed against her, and the open wound on his chest was bleeding like a bloody hole.

The blood dripped all over Jiang Si, but it didn't stain her clothes or her body; instead, it was completely absorbed by her.

Now he doesn't seem like a vampire, but she does—a vampire who sleeps here and people offer her blood, and she can suck fresh blood without even opening her mouth.

Shu Xubai begged her, begged her to wake up quickly, to wake up quickly, once, twice, three or five times, the air filled with his hoarse voice, his desperate pleas.

He failed to wake Jiang Si, his patience exhausted. He straightened up, knelt on one knee, grabbed Jiang Si's neck with his hand, his eyes bloodshot, and said furiously, "You stinking zombie, wake up now, wake up now, or I'll break your neck and separate your head from your body."

"If you don't want your head to separate from your body, wake up now! Wake up now, you stinking zombie, hurry up!"

His hand didn't exert any force at all; it was just a loose pinch on Jiang Si's neck. His fingertips were as white as her face and trembled as his voice, filled with fear.

His threat was just a bluff, a fit of rage. He wouldn't hurt Jiang Si in the slightest. He wasn't angry that she couldn't wake up, but that he was incompetent and had led to his current situation.

Shu Xubai loosened his grip, then clenched his fist, his nails digging into his flesh, blood flowing from his palm. He asked in excruciating pain, "You stinking zombie, when are you finally going to wake up?!"

"Little Phoenix really doesn't have time left, he really doesn't have time left. If you don't wake up, he'll die. He really will die, and once he's dead, everything will be gone. We'll never find someone like him again!"

After Shu Xubai finished speaking, he closed his eyes deeply, covering his bloodshot eyes. Blood gushed down from his palms and chest, but I felt no pain at all!

"I'm waiting for you to cry!"

A gust of wind blew by, and a voice exploded in Shu Xubai's ears.

Shu Xubai suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Si.

She kept her eyes closed, as if she were asleep.

"Did you just hear her speak?" Shu Xubai suddenly looked up at Agares, then turned to Yanliu and asked, "Did you hear her speak too? Did she just wake up? Did she wake up?"

Yanliu and the others shook their heads at him. They hadn't heard her speak or seen her wake up; it was just his imagination!

Shu Xubai was somewhat deranged and ferocious. He didn't believe what they said, didn't believe their shaking of their heads, and roared, "Liars, liars, you're all lying to me! I clearly heard her speak just now. She said she was waiting for me to cry, and that she would wake up when I cried."

Yanliu said, "Did you hear your master say that she would wake up when you cry? Why don't you cry?"

Quanjian cautiously chimed in, "Yes, yes, you said you woke up when you heard Jiang Jiang say you were crying. How about you give her a few crocodile tears as a token of your appreciation?"

Agares crouched down and looked at Shu Xubai: "Lord Shu Xubai, I heard you!"

Shu Xubai was slightly taken aback, then looked at him as if he had seen a glimmer of hope: "You heard me!"

Agares nodded: "Yes, I saw my wife, your friend, speak, saying that she would wake up when you cry."

It wasn't his imagination; the stinky zombie really had woken up.

Shu Xubai withdrew his gaze, which had not yet fallen on Jiang Si.

Jiang Si suddenly opened her eyes, turned over and stood up, slapping Shu Xubai across the face.

Yan Liu let out a hiss.

Quanjian tightened his grip on Azhi's arm.

As a member of the audience, she is now barely breathing.

My mind is filled with images of powerful figures, all of whom I can't afford to offend.

Don't mess with them! For the sake of your life, don't mess with anyone! Don't mess with anyone!

A huge surprise flashed in Agares' eyes; he didn't call out to her, but just looked at her.

The slap was loud and heavy, leaving five finger marks on Shu Xu's pale face.

Shu Xubai seemed to have hit someone else, grabbing Jiang Si's wrist and pulling her: "Come with me, let's go save her..."

Jiang Si didn't want to leave, and no one could stop her. She forcefully shook off Shu Xubai's hand, interrupting him, and cursed, "Go with you? What do you mean, 'go'? Are you crazy?!"

Shu Xubai paused for a moment: "I'm not crazy, come with me to save Xiao..."

"Wasn't one slap enough?" Jiang Si raised her hand to slap her face: "Is this how you go crazy, recklessly going mad?"

Shu Xubai didn't dodge, but stretched his neck and said, "Hit me, as long as you come with me to save Little Phoenix, hit me, hit me all you want!"

Jiang Si's hand, which was about to reach his face, turned around and went to his chest, pressing against the hole in his chest, because he hadn't finished speaking.

The blood on her hands, combined with the powerful healing energy poured out, cured the wound on his chest, allowing it to slowly heal under her palm.

Because of the treatment of his mental energy, the five finger marks on his face gradually faded, restoring his previous appearance of being as white as jade without a trace of blood.

While treating him, Jiang Si was still very angry and angrily cursed, "Damn vampire, look at how capable you are, cutting open his chest, slicing out his heart blood, and tearing out his heart flesh."

"Give me something to drink, give me something to eat, and after you're done eating, you're still threatening me and saying you'd strangle me? Who the hell gave you the guts to talk so arrogantly here?"

"Don't fucking talk to me about Little Phoenix. Little Phoenix, you told me back then that his death was his business, it had nothing to do with you, nothing to do with me, and nothing to do with anyone else."

"You told me there are countless foods, and the next one will be even better. What, are you contradicting yourself now? Have you gone deaf and can't hear the sound anymore?"

Quanjian silently moved to the side of Yanliu, pointed at Jiangsi with a thumbs up, and said, "Awesome, awesome! Jiangsi is still the best. That vampire was scolded like a grandson and didn't say a word. Sure enough, there's always someone who can subdue another. Jiangsi is above everyone else."

Yanliu: "..."

Given the old man's current state, it's too lenient for his master to beat or scold him.

Otherwise, given the owner's violent temper, he could have been stomped into the ground and never been dug out.

Shu Xubai didn't utter a single word of criticism; his eyes were fixed on Jiang Si.

Jiang Si grew angrier the more she cursed: "I was sleeping soundly here, lying comfortably, feeling perfectly well. Did you have to wake me up? Did you have to bleed me dry and cut off a piece of your heart for me to eat?"

"No need for that. You're just being presumptuous here. You dug me out of the ground. Do you even know that I was lying there absorbing the essence of heaven and earth to nourish myself, and I was about to become invincible? You dug me out, and all my efforts have been wasted!"

He threatened her, he choked her to wake her up, but that wasn't the main thing, that wasn't what made her angry. What made her angry was that this bastard was contradicting himself so blatantly. He had boasted to him earlier about how little he cared about Little Phoenix, but now the slap in the face was resounding.

I told him long ago not to be so arrogant in his words and deeds, but he insisted on puffing out his chest and telling me that the whole embarrassing thing had nothing to do with him and was someone else's problem.

Shu Xubai was scolded mercilessly, but instead of getting angry, he laughed out loud.

"Laugh, what are you laughing at!" Jiang Si couldn't help but scold him again when she heard him laugh: "You're so ugly, and your laugh sounds like a duck's voice, and you still dare to laugh!"

Shu Xubai let her scold him, and just smiled at her.

Jiang Si healed the wound on his chest, pulled at his clothes, wiped the blood from her hands on his clothes, then stood up, walked towards Agares, and hugged him: "Honey, I'm back. Don't worry about me. You can do whatever you want. I'm going out for a bit, I'll be back in a little while!"

She reached out to hug him, but pulled away in an instant. Agares stretched out his long arm and scooped her into his arms, holding her tightly. His voice was slightly hoarse and trembling: "Next time, even if you're asleep, you have to tell me. Don't tell me you went out to play, okay?"

"Okay, okay!" Jiang Si patted his back to remind him, "If you don't let go of me, my Lao Bai is going to bite you to death!"

Agares didn't want to let go, but she had no choice but to.

Jiang Si, now free, tiptoed and kissed him, then turned and walked toward Shu Xubai with disgust: "You bastard, stop laughing, just looking at you makes me angry."

Shu Xubai stopped laughing. The small black skull bat on his shoulder flew to the ground and transformed from a tiny bat no bigger than the palm of his hand into a super-sized skull bat.

The giant bat had wingspans that were over ten meters long, devoid of flesh and skin. Its body, also devoid of flesh and skin, was unusually large. Even without eyes, its two dark, hollow eye sockets were enough to send chills down one's spine and instill fear upon sight.

Shu Xubai reached out to take Jiang Si's hand.

Jiang Si dodged him and snorted coldly: "Men and women shouldn't touch each other. Don't try to pull me around. I can walk by myself!"

As soon as Jiang Si finished speaking, she stepped onto the back of the giant bat.

Shu Xubai's hand grasped at empty air, but he was suddenly shoved behind him, and he and Jiang Si stepped onto the back of the giant bat. The bat's skeletal wings flapped, and it flew into the sky.

"Wow, this mount is so cool!" Quanjian looked up at the sky, his words full of envy and admiration: "It has no flesh or skin, and it's a bat that can be big or small, can fly and carry people. It's a rare treasure."

Yanliu looked up at the bat and its owner, who had become tiny black dots, and coolly reminded Quanjian, "Your Majesty, you are wrong. This bat can not only grow in size, but it can also carry people in the sky and eat people."

"Don't be fooled by its lack of skin and flesh; it's all bones. When it bites and eats people, a little shark like you wouldn't even be enough to fill its teeth for one meal!"

Quanjian: "..."

Why do I feel a chill on my neck and my whole body shivering?

Stay away from that little bat from now on. Your life is more important.

Agares watched Jiang Si and the others disappear into the distance, and only after he could no longer see her did he look away and ask Yan Liu, "The negotiations with the zombies..."

Yan Liu opened her mouth and said, "No problem with the negotiations, we'll discuss the specific details in a few days!"

Agares nodded: "I'm entrusting this matter entirely to you. I'll send you the points that cannot be compromised. On matters of principle, not a single step can be conceded!"

Yanliu: "I know!"

Agares nodded slightly to her, then turned and boarded the aircraft, departing.

As soon as he left, Yanliu hurriedly called out to Azhi: "Azhi, Aran, hurry, hurry, hurry and find me zombie crystal cores. There should be nine, there should be nine high-level zombie crystal cores."

"Search through the shattered brains of the nine zombies whose heads were crushed. That crystal core shouldn't have been crushed; it should be intact. It must have broken off somewhere. Find it quickly, find it quickly."

A-Zhi, along with a companion spirit and a tree that had transformed into a human, began searching for zombie crystal cores—nine high-level zombie crystal cores that had evolved to resemble humans.

Jiang Si stepped on the black bat and entered the spaceship. The entire spaceship was filled with Shu Xubai's spiritual power, like a large nourishing platform, nourishing the nest.

In this nourishing nest, Jiang Si saw Jiu Feng, pale-faced, weak, shrouded in spiritual energy, her chest barely rising and falling, on the verge of death.

In just over nine months, his body deteriorated faster than she had imagined. She thought he could last at least a year, but he only lasted a little over nine months.

Jiang Si focused her spiritual power on him. The powerful spiritual power was like a magic pill, waking up the sleeping Jiu Feng. He looked past Jiang Si and at Shu Xubai behind her: "Didn't we agree not to look for Princess Jiang Jiang and to scatter me into the sea of ​​stars after I die?"
