"Very well, considering your filial piety, I will not pursue the matter further." Zhu Xiechi coldly looked at Sang Hong. "Lord Sang, are you going to obediently come with us now, or do you want us to take action?"
Sang Hong's face turned pale, and he hurriedly cupped his hands and replied, "I dare not trouble the commander to take action. I surrender without resistance. However, before that, I hope that you can allow me to avenge my son first."
He knew very well that even in his prime, let alone when he was seriously injured, he was no match for his opponent, so he naturally couldn't muster the will to fight back.
"Sang Qian? What happened to him?" Zhu Xie Chixin was also a little surprised, as he hadn't seen him.
Sang Hong looked at the mummified corpse on the ground with a sorrowful expression: "My son was murdered and died a tragic death. Unfortunately, I don't even know who the murderer is."
Zhu Xie Chixin noticed the corpse in the grass, his pupils contracted, and he hurriedly jumped off his horse, squatted down to examine it, and finally his voice became somewhat solemn: "This was done by a vampire."
"Vampires?" Sang Hong was taken aback at first, then realized, "Didn't the vampires disappear after being defeated for hundreds of years?"
Zhu Xie Chixin examined the wound on his neck and said in a deep voice, "It seems that the Demon Emperor is unwilling to accept defeat and has once again developed a covetous heart for the Central Plains."
The women standing nearby all changed color. They were all genius students from their respective academies and naturally knew the relevant history.
In the past, the human race fought a great war with the alien races, which were actually the demon race.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the demons, elves, dark elves, beastmen, and even dragons are all collectively referred to as the demon race.
However, these cultivators from prestigious families knew that these races were not the same as the pure demon race. It was just that the demon race was the most powerful, and these races had all revered the Demon Emperor as their master in the past.
In the universe, all kinds of living beings, including animals and plants, can cultivate into demons. Even some things that are not living beings can cultivate into demons and transform into human bodies if the opportunity arises.
Of course, these are all acquired demonic cultivation methods; the conditions for becoming a demon through cultivation are extremely demanding.
There is also a group of naturally born demons who do not need to cultivate; the power in their bloodline gives them human-like bodies from birth.
Vampires are a peculiar branch of the demon race, born to feed on blood. They have many prototypes, such as bats, leeches, mosquitoes, lampreys, and so on. Even other powerful demons within the demon race are wary of them.
