Chapter 372
However, as soon as the vampire duke glanced at them, the vassal vampires instantly wilted, not daring to utter a single word.
They could only secretly wipe away their tears, heartbroken that their lord had been bewitched, and wondering what would become of the vampire clan's future.
That vixen! That woman must be a witch sent by the false God of Light to bewitch their Grand Duke!
Of course, these subordinate vampires only dared to grumble in their hearts.
They were certain that if they made things difficult for that witch in the slightest, the Grand Duke would twist their heads off and use them as a football.
They weren't unwilling to die for the Duke; they just wanted to die in a way that was meaningful.
Besides, if they die, wouldn't that please that vixen?
Dream on!
Wen Xin: "..."
To be able to portray the fear of death as so righteous and awe-inspiring, one truly deserves to be called a vampire who is particular about the finer things in life.
But so what if I'm a vixen? What can you do to me?
Vampires A, B, C, and D roared: "Don't be so arrogant, you demon queen!"
Wen Xin raised an eyebrow: Go ahead and hit me if you dare!
The fists of the vassal vampires hardened!
Don't think they wouldn't dare.
Wen Xin: Then go ahead and fight!
The subordinate vampires were instantly proven wrong: "..." They really didn't dare.
Wen Xin snorted: So what if I'm arrogant? What can you do about it? If you make me unhappy, I'll tell Odis that you're bullying me.
Subordinate vampires: "..." Despicable, shameless, and cunning!
Witches are definitely no good.
Wen Xin gracefully rested her chin on her hand and casually raised an eyebrow: "Hide it well, don't give yourself away, otherwise I'll be unhappy, and Odis will be unhappy too."
The subordinate vampires were so angry they were about to vomit blood, but they were powerless against this vixen.
Who could blame them when their Grand Duke was completely infatuated with her?
However, their decision to hide and not come out is not out of resignation or submission, but rather a strategic retreat.
A direct confrontation with a heavily armed enemy is not the best strategy. For the sake of the public good, they must endure humiliation and lie in wait, seeking an opportunity to strike decisively.
Yes, that's it!
The subordinate vampires had prepared themselves mentally perfectly.
Wen Xin's red lips twitched slightly; these vampires really were obsessed with saving face.
Oh well, as long as they listen to me.
Disobedient? Humph, does she think she's been a vixen for nothing?
The clash between Wen Xin and her subordinate vampires lasted only a blink of an eye, while the commotion on the other side of the wall grew even greater.
Wen Xin's almond-shaped eyes brightened even more; the thief over there was on!
Xie Miao evaded the vampires who were pursuing him, crossed the wall, and planned to find a place to hide for a while.
However, as soon as he leaped over the wall, he met a pair of cool, aloof almond-shaped eyes that seemed to be both smiling and not smiling. Uh…
He hadn't sensed any vampires or humans behind the wall... Could it be that his sense of smell had gone bad?
Obviously not. As soon as he came in, he smelled a familiar scent.
"Hey, isn't this the little witch?"
Xie Miao stared at Wen Xin with utter audacity, his smile both wicked and bewitching.
Maxim knew, of course, that the man who killed his son had gone to the Rose Palace and never returned.
He was the one who knocked Maxim unconscious when he was almost driven mad.
This incident caused quite a stir among the vampires.
For thousands of years, a group of novice nuns has been sent to the Rose Chamber every year, but there has never been a case of anyone going missing or being left behind.
Therefore, the entire vampire clan was discussing whether the witch was killed, escaped, or was left behind.
In the Rose Palace, only the vampire lord has the right to keep humans.
Furthermore, the vampire who escorted the novice nuns back at the time stated that Alexei (vampire A) had caught up with their plane that morning and taken all the food from the plane.
This proves that the witch was left alive in the underground palace.
So, the witch became the Grand Duke's blood servant?
But nobody in the vampire clan believes it!
Isn't the Grand Duke still asleep?
Wasn't the Grand Duke the one who hated witches the most?
Didn't the Grand Duke have no record of drinking human blood?
One question after another bombarded the vampires, leaving them dizzy and unsure of what to do.
The vampire elders rushed to the Rose Palace to see the vassal lords, but only received news of the Grand Duke's awakening; they could not find out anything else.
Vampires A, B, C, and D secretly rolled their eyes: We're still confused ourselves, what can we tell you?
But the awakening of the vampire duke is great news for the vampire clan!
However, the vassal vampires ordered the council of elders not to spread the news of the Grand Duke's awakening, and to keep a low profile and do nothing for the time being.
Seeing the seriousness of the subordinate vampires, the Elder Council assumed that something had happened on the Grand Duke's side.
Joy instantly turned into deep worry.
The Grand Duke had never drunk blood and had been asleep for a thousand years without waking up; sure enough, something went wrong.
This is a huge problem!
The elders wanted to ask more questions, but were impatiently dismissed by the vampires A, B, C, and D.
Ask around, but they don't know anything either!
The Elder Council was once again frightened by the attitude of the subordinate vampires. They didn't know what they were imagining, but they even kept the matter of Wen Xin's disappearance in the underground palace strictly confidential.
Otherwise, how could Ice City be so peaceful now? The vampires would have gone crazy long ago!
If Xie Miao hadn't been at the convent at the time, and if his mother hadn't been one of the seven elders of the Presbyterian Church, he wouldn't have known so much.
However, who could have imagined that Maxim, who was so furious, would sit so openly in a manor in Ice City, amidst the many speculations of the vampires?
Xie Miao didn't detect any other people or vampires in the manor. He was full of doubts, but his face didn't show it at all. He even had the mood to tease Wen Xin.
"Little witch, didn't you run away? How did you end up here? And I even ran into you! What a coincidence!"
Predestined fate my ass!
Vampires A, B, C, and D: We're furious! Where did this brat come from? How dare he flirt with the Demon Queen?
Although they disliked the seductive concubine, she was the Grand Duke's private property; was she someone anyone could harass?
If it weren't for the tyrannical power of the demon queen, Xie Miao would have already been humiliated by his subordinate vampire clan members.
Wen Xin sat calmly on the swing, also sizing up Xie Miao.
She didn't ask Xie Miao how they knew each other. Her delicate face remained expressionless, and her voice was cold and indifferent, "You're one of the vampires who spied on me from the third floor at the ball?"
Xie Miao raised an eyebrow and smiled even more wickedly, "Little witch, you're quite something! Oh my, I'm really growing to like you more and more."
