Xiang Congxian was feeling uneasy, so it wasn't a big deal that he brought Xian Yanglan hiking.
But when he was halfway up the mountain, he felt something was wrong.
The little girl was clearly interested in him; her words and actions revealed her infatuation and adoration for him.
Xiang Cong dislikes women, let alone his students.
He's a straightforward person who doesn't like to beat around the bush and directly states his attitude.
Xian Yanglan cried, but Xiang Cong didn't comfort her. He felt that if you don't like someone, you shouldn't do anything ambiguous.
Although she was rejected, Xian Yanglan persisted in a way that surprised Xiang Cong.
She said, "Maybe I'm not good enough now, but one day, when I become really great, you'll definitely fall in love with me."
Xiang Cong dismissed it as childish behavior and didn't take it seriously.
As the two descended the mountain, Xian Yanglan's attitude changed drastically from when they arrived.
She abandoned her former timidity and became more poised and graceful in front of Xiang Cong.
Xiang Cong was surprised by Xian Yanglan's transformation, assuming it was because she had broadened her horizons after reaching the mountaintop.
Going down the mountain was more boring than going up, probably because this trip was quite awkward.
However, things got interesting when they ran into this vampire prince on their way down the mountain.
Upon seeing Yi Mu, Xian Yanglan reflexively lowered her head and stammered, "Dear...Lord Yi."
Yi Mu's eyes shifted from her to Xiang Cong's irritating face, his voice indifferent, revealing neither anger nor displeasure.
"You're not in good health, it's too cold here, don't come again."
Xian Yanglan bit her lip, her reluctance easily discernible in her tone, yet she didn't have the courage to refuse.
"yes."
Yi Mu tapped his cane, and the bat hanging in the tree not far away quietly transformed into a man wearing glasses beside him—his butler.
"I'll have the housekeeper take you back."
Xian Yanglan's lips trembled as she slowly looked at Xiang Cong.
He didn't show the fear she expected; instead, his eyes held a look of inquiry.
The butler adjusted his glasses and gave her a gentle smile.
“Miss Lan, this gentleman is the deputy director of the Special Inspection Department. He is very familiar with the existence of our clan. You don’t need to be too surprised.”
A look of joy flashed in Xian Yanglan's eyes.
She had been in pain because of the difference in her identity with Xiang Cong, but now all her worries were gone.
"Teacher, I'll be leaving now."
Xiang Cong waved casually.
After Xian Yanglan left, Xiang Cong lifted his long leg and walked towards Yi Mu, his first words being provocative: "Your Highness is in quite a good mood. Climbing a mountain alone must be so lonely."
Yi Mu feigned a sour tone: "Teacher, you have quite the refined taste, but bringing students to go hiking seems a bit inappropriate."
Xiang Cong bent down, his nose only two centimeters away from Yi Mu's.
He has a very witty and popular personality, but whenever he faces Yi Mu, he can't help but reveal a very dangerous side.
Yi Mu resisted the urge to turn his head away, frowning: "What are you doing?"
Xiang Cong sniffed at his mouth like a rogue, and a deep, resonant voice, as thick as a cello, struck Yi Mu's eardrums.
"I thought I would smell the stench of fresh blood, but I didn't expect Your Highness to smell so good. Do all vampires like to wear perfume?"
Yi Mu's lips twitched. If he hadn't misunderstood, this bastard was flirting with him.
A dignified vampire prince, the most likely candidate to succeed the Blood Emperor as the head of the vampire clan, is being used as a pastime by a mere half-demon.
Yi Mu took a step back, a murderous glint flashing in his eyes as he looked at Xiang Cong.
Xiang Cong seemed to sense something and stepped back, but it was too late.
With his five fingers forming claws, Yi Mu grabbed Xiang Cong by the neck, instantly teleported a hundred meters, and forcefully slammed Xiang Cong onto a hard rock.
The stone shattered under the immense weight.
