Chapter 11: The Vampire Boss Takes a Gentle Bite—Swallows It Whole
"No, no, you can't do this to me."
When Huiyue kissed her, Gu Shanshan protested in a trembling voice.
He struggled to resist his stiff, controlled body, trying to turn his face away.
But the witch's control over his body was not something he could easily resist, and he could only watch helplessly as Huiyue's lips drew closer and closer to his.
When the moonlight was less than a centimeter away from her lips, Gu Shanshan's eyes turned red and tears welled up in them.
Huiyue smiled contentedly, her eyes closed as she tried to touch Gu Shanshan's lips.
Bang!
After the sound of a scabbard being drawn, Huiyue felt a chill on the back of her neck.
He interrupted his lewd actions towards Gu Shanshan.
Then came a stinging pain, and something icy cold flowed from the painful spot on the back of his neck, soaking his clothes.
Huiyue straightened up, released her grip on Gu Shanshan's body, reached behind her neck, and looked at her hand; her palm was a glaring red.
It was all blood.
"Damn it!"
Huiyue glanced at the blood-stained Radiant Sword beside her, then glared at Gu Shanshan with resentment.
Gu Shanshan met Huiyue's angry gaze, curled up, straightened her clothes, and hugged the Radiant Sword tightly to her chest.
"What a disappointment."
Huiyue cursed in dissatisfaction.
He never expected that Gu Shanshan, a holy child who was half vampire and half hunter, could have such a strong telepathic connection with the Sword of Radiance.
This time, out of consideration for his fellow hunter status, the Radiant Sword only gave him a slight warning and did not sever his neck directly.
It seems that as long as the Sword of Radiance is on Gu Shanshan, he can't get close to her at all.
Huiyue's expression grew increasingly grim as she thought about it.
His calculating gaze swept over the Radiant Sword, which Gu Shanshan was holding tightly in her arms.
He squinted and plotted in his mind. After he used Gu Shanshan to kill Gong Ye, he immediately hid the Radiant Sword next to Gu Shanshan.
That way, no one will be able to stop him from possessing Gu Shanshan.
Huiyue had high hopes in her mind, but when she saw Gu Shanshan's wary look, she suppressed her anger.
He gave her a gentle smile. "Don't be afraid, Shanshan. I was just joking with you. I didn't mean anything by it. You don't need to be so nervous. I'm your husband. I would never hurt you. Let's go quickly. We must kill Gong Ye to avenge our entire hunter clan. Then, Shanshan, you will be a great hero of our entire vampire clan."
His words sounded very dignified and respectable.
Gu Shanshan had no memory of anything; his mind was blank when he woke up.
Only this man told him that they were an enviable vampire hunter couple, and that from birth he had an important mission: to personally kill the most powerful and formidable vampire prince, Gong Ye.
Gu Shanshan was puzzled by Huiyue's words, but never dared to speak of them.
He found it strange that if the vampire prince was really as powerful as he claimed, then what made him think he could kill him?
Of course, he had absolutely no interest in being a hero.
"Sparkle, what are you thinking about?"
Huiyue received no response from Gu Shanshan and questioned her in displeasure.
When he first kidnapped Gu Shanshan, she was eager to return to Gong Ye's side.
He doesn't even remember Gong Ye anymore, yet he still dared to be so distracted when Gong Ye's name was mentioned.
That's... despicable.
Huiyue would never admit that she was insanely jealous of Gongye.
He was jealous that Gong Ye could win Gu Shanshan's affection, while Gu Shanshan only showed disgust and avoidance when facing him.
Huiyue's gaze was unfriendly.
Gu Shanshan subconsciously took two steps back and shook her head, "I wasn't thinking about anything."
Although they were a married couple, he had no feelings for Huiyue and only felt annoyed.
However, he dared not resist Huiyue. Whenever he tried to resist, Huiyue would control his body and force him to do things that made him uncomfortable.
If it weren't for the sword in his arms, he probably would have been forced by Huiyue many times over.
"Oh, is that so?"
Huiyue forced a smile, but the gentle expression on her face was terribly stiff.
It's obvious at a glance that he's not sincere.
“Let’s go. We’re still quite a distance from the vampire castle. We need to get into the vampire castle before nightfall so we can have a chance to assassinate Gong Ye, our enemy.”
Gu Shanshan could only nod in response to Huiyue's words, "Okay."
......
After traveling for more than ten hours, the two finally arrived at the city of vampires.
After nightfall, vampires roam everywhere.
Huiyue made Gu Shanshan wear the same black cloak as herself, covering her face completely except for her eyes.
This kind of attire looks very strange and eye-catching in the human world.
However, it is quite common in the vampire world.
Therefore, Gu Shanshan and Huiyue did not attract the attention of the vampires. In addition, Huiyue had served the vampire nobles before and had a pass, which allowed them to safely reach the center of the vampire city.
Many vampires lined both sides of the road, craning their necks in one direction, as if waiting and looking up at something.
Huiyue and Gu Shanshan mingled among them, speaking in a low voice that only the two of them could hear.
"The vampire prince will be passing by this road later. I'll push you out then. You should know what to do next, right, Sparkle?"
Huiyue looked at Gu Shanshan with a hint of warning in her eyes.
Gu Shanshan nodded, "Don't worry, I know."
On the way here, Huiyue had reiterated the assassination plan to him countless times.
He had already memorized it; he wouldn't fail.
"Shanshan is such a good girl. After the assassination mission is completed, come find me at the hiding place I told you about. I'll be waiting for you there, and then we'll run away together."
"I see."
As soon as Gu Shanshan finished speaking, the noisy street fell silent instantly, as if someone had pressed a mute button.
It was eerily quiet; you could hear a pin drop.
All the vampires held their breath, their eyes all fixed on one spot.
Gu Shanshan followed the vampires' gaze and immediately spotted a man walking steadily in the distance.
The man had deep, handsome features, and his pale complexion exuded a chilling aura. He seemed to radiate light, attracting everyone's attention the moment he appeared.
His thin lips were pressed tightly together, exuding an air of authority without anger.
Even from that distance, he could feel the chill emanating from the man.
"Is this person Gong Ye?"
He felt a strange sense of familiarity upon seeing this vampire prince.
As if they had known each other before?
Gu Shanshan muttered to herself, her gaze fixed on Gong Ye, her eyes filled with a longing and sadness she herself was unaware of.
The heart that had been dormant in the chest cavity began to beat loudly.
All the vampires spontaneously knelt down slowly, prostrating themselves on the ground with piety and reverence.
Gu Shanshan stared blankly at Gong Ye, standing there like a wooden statue.
Huiyue's face turned extremely ugly when she saw Gu Shanshan's infatuated gaze.
He forcefully pulled Gu Shanshan down and made her kneel on the ground, warning her in a low voice.
"Shanshan, I've told you before, Gong Ye is our enemy. Our parents and family members all died at Gong Ye's hands. You'd better wake up!"
Gu Shanshan came to her senses, her face somewhat pale.
He murmured, "I understand."
Gong Ye's eyebrows were long and thin, his eyes were deep and his features were so strikingly evil that they almost made him lose his mind.
Moreover, upon seeing Gong Ye, his body went limp.
During this period after he woke up, Huiyue hinted and explicitly stated more than once that she wanted to have a relationship with him, but he pretended to be stupid or fooled her every time.
He believed that he was naturally frigid and had no interest in sex.
Seeing Gong Ye now, Gu Shanshan realized for the first time that she wasn't actually frigid.
It's just that the person is wrong.
However, the person he was interested in was his own enemy.
Gu Shanshan felt a little sad.
"What are you thinking? Did you remember everything I said?"
Huiyue pinched Gu Shanshan's arm in anger.
Gu Shanshan gasped in pain and quickly said, "I remember."
He was so busy thinking about Gong Ye that he had no idea what Hui Yue had said.
After nodding, Gu Shanshan didn't even have time to react before she was shoved hard from behind.
He fell straight into the crowd, landing in the middle of the road.
Unfortunately, she fell right at Gong Ye's feet.
A suicidal person suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and a bloodthirsty killing intent flashed in Gong Ye's eyes.
Since Gu Shanshan disappeared, he has killed countless vampires and humans to vent his anger, but he cannot find peace of mind until he finds Gu Shanshan.
If Gu Shanshan doesn't show up soon, he will eventually wipe out all the vampires and humans.
Now, a suicidal person has come up to him, so he can kill him to vent his anger.
Gong Ye slightly raised his hand, forming a hand seal, and the cold, thin edge of his hand rippled with a chilling arc.
His slender fingers clenched into claws, and with a fierce force, he slammed down on Gu Shanshan's head, about to crush it completely.
With just one palm strike, not only would the person's head be crushed, but their entire soul would be shattered, preventing them from ever being reincarnated again.
At the critical moment, Gu Shanshan subconsciously looked up.
The black hood slipped off her head, revealing a fair and delicate face beneath.
Upon seeing that familiar face and meeting those innocent, watery eyes, Gong Ye paused in his actions.
The treasure he had lost and then regained suddenly appeared before his eyes, and his heart, which had been dead for thousands of years, was instantly overwhelmed by a suffocating pain that swept through his entire body.
The way he stared at Gu Shanshan was like that of a traveler who had been walking in the desert for a long time and finally found a life-saving spring.
Those deep, dark eyes seemed to want to devour Gu Shanshan whole, leaving not even a bone fragment.
No one noticed that Gong Ye's fingertips, which were placed at his side, were trembling.
Gu Shanshan was frightened by Gong Ye's terrifying gaze. She curled up and hugged the Radiant Sword hidden in her arms.
The cold blade of the sword was wrapped in black cloth and kept tightly hidden in his bosom.
He was now very fortunate that the Sword of Radiance was not a longsword, but a short sword.
Otherwise, he would have been discovered to be plotting an assassination and would have been killed by the prince's guards before he could even make a move.
Gu Shanshan watched nervously as Gong Ye squatted down and reached out to hug him, but as planned, she tightened her grip on the short sword in her arms.
Just as Gong Ye was about to touch his face, he recklessly lunged at Gong Ye...
