Infighting 2.0
After Van Helsing left, Fan Liye thought about what to do. First of all, he needed to ask the ancestors not to disturb the human realm, but it was not easy to make them obedient.
"King." Nibel came over and handed Fan Liye a letter, "The Second Baron and the Second Duke were fighting, and the Second Duke was injured."
Look, it’s only been a few days since the internal strife started again... Wait, the Second Duke was injured?
Fan Liye took the letter and started reading it. Since Richard's ability was peeling, he could compress a circular space within a specified range, squeezing and peeling off all the living things in the space until they disappeared.
It takes a certain amount of time, is perceptible, and gradually causes pain. The space is a circle with a diameter of one meter, and it cannot be moved, but it can be jumped out of this range.
Lance's ability is weightlessness, which only reduces the weight of himself and others, and cannot cause any actual damage to Richard.
The result was that he lost in terms of ability due to the injury, but Lance chopped Richard into pieces, which could be considered revenge for the injury.
How can you chop a vampire into minced meat?
Fan Liye knew Lance's character. He would take revenge on the spot and never hold grudges. It was impossible for him to start a fight. He just didn't expect the Baron to attack the Duke. He really relied on his status badge to act recklessly.
"Call all ancestors." Fan Liye handed the letter to Nibel and said lightly.
Nibel was very efficient and was sitting in the conference room waiting for all the ancestors to arrive in just over half an hour.
When Lance came, Fan Liye looked at him and saw that his arm was squeezed and there were some cracks on it.
Of course, Xia Zuo was here too, though he was usually under house arrest, so he still needed to come for this kind of summons. Fan Liye glanced over, and Xia Zuo quickly looked away, trying to minimize his presence.
When Nibel stood beside him, Fan Liye spoke: "It seems that another ancestor has caused trouble, and he is not afraid of death."
Lance immediately chimed in, "How audacious! The king has clearly forbidden this, yet you still dare to challenge me. How would it feel to be chopped into pulp, Second Baron?"
After hearing Lance's words, most of the ancestors looked at Richard. The other party didn't have any injuries, but some of them hadn't seen him for two or three days.
"The troublemaker is the Second Baron. The Second Baron drinks three cups, and the others drink one cup, please." Fan Liye stretched out his hand to signal them to start the punishment.
Lance's expression instantly turned bad. He looked at Fan Liye and curled his lips: "I'm the victim, and I'm injured. How can I not drink?"
Fan Liye smiled at him and said, "Please."
"Ah!" Lance slammed the table and said angrily, "I've had enough! If any of you dare to fight among yourselves again, I promise to tear you apart and shove my hands in your mouths, and make you drink your own blood!"
"Lance," Dan said calmly, "Listen to the king and stop complaining."
"It's not like I'm not listening. I drink too. Can't I complain a few times?" Lance curled his lips and started bleeding.
The ancestors were stunned when they heard Dan's words. You know, this guy didn't say anything before. His previous statement was shocking enough. They didn't expect that he would ask Lance to be quiet this time.
Fan Liye laughed again: "If you separate them, it will be considered as internal fighting."
"..." Lance put the blood in and drank it all in one gulp, gritting his teeth and saying, "Bullying a vampire is too much."
Richard then felt a little regretful and drank the blood slowly. He still remembered that his butler would be punished after this. What should he do?
In the heat of the moment, he attacked Lance, forgetting that Ivy would also be punished.
Fan Liye did nothing, quietly waiting for Richard to finish drinking the blood. However, Lance could not wait any longer and shouted, "Why are you drinking so slowly? Are you wasting time?"
Pani looked at the cup with some confusion. The blood he drank twice when he was punished was very sweet. Looking at the painful faces of others, he really couldn't understand. Shouldn't it be so painful for him to drink his own blood?
Fan Liye glanced at the puzzled Pani, said nothing, supported his head and looked at Richard, waiting quietly for him to finish drinking.
Unfortunately, Richard was drinking too slowly. He was also a little annoyed and waved to Nibel: "Bring in the second Duke's butler first."
"Yes." Nibel nodded.
Richard saw this and said quickly: "I haven't finished punishing you yet..."
"Now you know to worry about your butler. Why didn't you think of that when you were causing trouble?" Fan Liye watched Nibel bring Ivy in and said calmly, "My punishment for your butler will be gradual. No matter if it's the first offense or the first few, I will impose additional penalties. Last time, I beat him personally, this time, it's my ability."
"King." Ivy quickly knelt down in front of Fan Liye.
Ives Ortiz. Vampire, pureblood, butler of the Second Baron. Ability: Real Vision Like a Realm of Rift.
Fan Liye pondered: "Hmm... Let me think about which ability causes slightly less damage..."
"Wait... ability...?" Richard didn't expect that the punishment would be to use ability. Before, he didn't use his ability, so he just needed to recover for a while, but if he wanted to use his ability, it would take a long time to recover.
"Just use the Third Duke's ability, the Wenger Blade." Fan Liye said.
Rex was stunned and asked, "Does that mean... you want me to do it?"
Lance glanced at Rex and said disdainfully, "Don't be stupid. Hasn't the young master ever challenged you to a fight?"
Rex nodded in understanding: "I forgot about it..."
Fan Liye smiled at Ivy and said, "For the Lord."
As soon as he finished speaking, several wounds similar to those cut by a knife appeared on Ivy's arm. They looked similar to the cracks on Lance's arm.
Lance noticed this and laughed, "Ouch, that looks like it hurts."
Richard was about to check on Ivy's injury when Nibel, who was passing by, held him down. Richard was a little shocked as Nibel walked to Fan Liye's side and tried to get up again.
"The Second Baron's punishment isn't over yet." Fan Liye said with a smile, "If you keep dawdling, I suggest you give your steward a few more blows."
Fan Liye stopped smiling and pondered for a moment: "I wonder if your butler can survive being chopped into pieces?"
Hearing this, Richard immediately finished drinking the blood and ran to Ivy to check on her: "Can you bear it? Let's stop the bleeding first."
Ivy nodded. "I can bear it, Master. Go back to your seat first. The King is still here."
Richard gritted his teeth, looked at Fan Liye and said angrily: "Wang, how can I agree with you like this!"
"Why, you, the First Ancestor, are allowed to lose control of your hands, but I can't?" Fan Liye lowered his voice, "Watch me, if anyone dares to lose control of their hands again, I won't be able to control my hands either.
If you can't kill the original ancestor, can you kill a pureblood? I will only increase the severity of my attacks on them. If you really want to protect them, keep your hands off me."
Fan Liye narrowed his eyes and revealed a dangerous smile: "Don't think that if you start fighting internally earlier, the punishment your butler will receive will be less. I don't know if I will make a mistake... Think about it yourself."
Fan Liye supported his head and waved his hand, and Nibel said, "That's all for today. All ancestors can leave now."
Lance walked over to Richard in a good mood, looked at the injured Ivy, and taunted him, "Keep your hands to yourself. If you're not happy with me, come and pick a fight with me. If you're brave enough, piss me off and I'll start the fight first, then the king will punish me. If you're not brave enough, just keep your tail between your legs, you loser."
Richard looked at Lance with gritted teeth. Rex walked over and said helplessly after hearing Lance's words: "Lance, it's not for nothing that most of the ancestors hate you."
