Chapter 396
"Odis".
Before anyone knew it, the vampire duke alighted from the carriage and stood there, quietly waiting for her.
Wen Xin could see him as soon as she turned around.
The vampire duke's cold and stern features softened slightly as he reached out his hand to her, "Come here."
Wen Xin practically threw herself into his arms, hugging his waist tightly and burying her face in his chest.
"Odis!"
"Um."
The vampire lord gently stroked her hair, the indifferent and cold deity giving all his tenderness to the little girl in his arms.
The shimmering light of Jingling Lake rippled between the overlapping hems of their clothes, making the deep colors appear brighter and softer.
"Going home?"
Wen Xin looked up, her almond-shaped eyes sparkling with a bright smile. "Okay."
The vampire lord picked her up and carried her back to the carriage.
The car door closed, obscuring the two figures.
The vampire C, acting as the coachman, pulled on the reins, and the Pegasus neighed, spread its wings, and flew into the sky.
Wen Yu stared blankly at this scene, her expression changing repeatedly.
Suddenly she burst into wild laughter again.
There will never be another moment like this, when she understands that no matter how hard she tries, she will never be able to surpass Wen Xin.
Both were witches, but she was a rat everyone hated, while Wen Xin was?
Even the legendary supreme ruler of the vampire clan was captivated by her and protected her.
She stood far away on the horizon, looking down on her with utter contempt.
Can……
Wen Yu's eyes were bloodshot. Why?
Why is Wen Xin always so smug? Why?
Marquis Maxim sneered repeatedly. With her limited mind and vision, she dared to compare herself to the lady?
A phoenix will always be a phoenix, while a pheasant, even if it flies to the top of a tree, is still a pheasant.
However, since Wen Yu was resentful of the good old days, he was happy to let her experience what real hell was like.
She and Andrei, they just lived too well and never experienced the harsh realities of society, which is why they got into all sorts of messes.
Oh!
...
Red Maple Manor is located deep in a maple forest. Every autumn, the maple leaves in the forest turn into a sea of red mist. Especially at dusk, the sunset casts its glow on the maple forest, creating a dazzling spectacle. As the autumn wind blows, the red sea rustles, as if flames are burning the heavens and the earth, creating a magnificent and spectacular sight.
Wen Xin loved this maple forest, so the vampire duke stayed here with her temporarily.
Marquis Maxime and his son were flattered and vied to offer the estate to the Grand Duke, and they moved out.
The entire vampire clan belongs to the Grand Duke. The Grand Duke likes Red Maple Manor, so this place belongs to the Grand Duke. No problem!
Wen Xin quickly declined, explaining that she was only visiting for a short time and wouldn't be staying long.
The Marquis Maxime and his son were quite disappointed and regretful about this, as if it were their fault for not giving away the estate.
Wen Xin: "..." That's an exaggeration!
However, the reason Marquis Maxim is in such a good mood lately is, of course, because he has finally avenged the murder of his son.
After Wen Yu was publicly tried and disgraced by the Holy See, he was captured and brought back by Marquis Maxim.
This time, he didn't want to resort to any slow, torturous methods.
Hey, there's a precedent for this; you can only feel at ease if you kill your enemies as soon as possible.
Marquis Maxim threw Wen Yu directly into the Black Prison and watched her being overwhelmed by those mentally unstable vampires before leaving.
After avenging his great grudge, Marquis Maxim immediately came to thank Wen Xin and apologize.
Wen Xin didn't make things difficult for him anymore and even comforted him with a few words, which almost moved Marquis Maxim to tears.
Look, this is the real Saintess!
Wen Yu said that woman could draw the skin of a tiger, but not its bones.
Xiao Jin: "..." Honey, have you forgotten that you almost got beaten to death before?
It can only be said that the master is becoming more and more amazing at deceiving and bribing vampires.
...
That day, when Xie Miao finished his business and returned to report to Wen Xin, he encountered his adoptive mother, who was coming out of the manor with a grim expression.
"Oh, isn't this our Elder Duyasha?"
Xie Miao, dressed in a flashy red robe, leaned against a maple tree, arms crossed, and smiled in a devilishly charming yet irritating way.
The moment Du Yasha saw this unfilial son, she felt a heart attack, and her face turned even more ashen. "You scoundrel, don't you even know how to call me 'Mother' anymore?"
Xie Miao scoffed, "You are Princess Lina's only mother. I, a mere vampire, would never dare to presume upon your status."
Normally, Du Yasha would have slapped him across the face, but thinking of something, she suppressed her disgust and anger, "Xie Miao, do you have to talk to me like that?"
Xie Miao raised an eyebrow. "Elder Du Yasha hasn't even threatened to kill me yet. Tsk tsk, she must be up to no good!"
Du Yasha's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and she roared, "Xie Miao!"
"Shh," Xie Miao put a finger to his lips, "Keep your voice down. If you disturb the Madam, does Elder Du Yasha want the Grand Duke to twist her head off?"
Du Yasha: "..."
She gritted her teeth, "Xie Miao, I heard you're working for... Madam?"
What lady?
A wicked and lowly witch, does she even deserve to be called one?
"Your mother has something to ask you to do."
Looking at the arrogant and domineering manner of this cheap old woman in front of him, Xie Miao felt both sarcastic and amused.
He gestured with his chin, indicating that Duyasha should continue.
Du Yasha was so angry at his rudeness that she almost vomited blood, but when she thought of her precious daughter at home who was making a scene and refusing to eat or drink, she resisted the urge to strangle this wicked son.
"After the Grand Duke awakens, how can a few subordinates and patriarchs serving him be enough? Besides, the Grand Duke's bloodline is incomparably noble. If he can leave offspring for the vampire clan, it will surely ensure our vampire clan's prosperity for thousands of generations. You are the Madam's trusted subordinate, so it is necessary to explain the vampire clan's interests and future to her properly, so that she can persuade the Grand Duke..."
"Stop, stop, stop," Xie Miao interrupted Du Yasha, looking at her with an expression as if she were some kind of magical, suicidal creature.
"Elder Duyasha, do you know you've gotten too big for your britches?"
"Do you really think that just because you've been the administrator of the Elder Council for so many years, you're the emperor of the vampires and can replace the Grand Duke?"
"Where did you get the courage? How dare you interfere in the Grand Duke's private affairs now?"
"What do you mean by 'for the eternal prosperity of the vampire clan'? It's all because your stupid daughter has taken a liking to the Grand Duke, and you want to force her onto him."
"Elder Duyasha, narcissism and brain damage are illnesses that need to be cured!"
"Thank you, Miao!"
