Chapter 160, Chapter 16: The Cat Master in a Rich Family Novel
The other vampires fell silent, neither immediately objecting nor immediately agreeing.
After a long while, a vampire finally spoke.
“Awakening Prince Xuan Yi will inevitably provoke the wrath of Prince Chi Lian, and the price will be…”
Why bother with that traitor?
The vampire who made the suggestion showed a hint of disgust in his eyes.
"If she hadn't sided with humans and provided them with samples and data, how could those damned blood hunters have progressed so quickly?"
Ultimately, the vampires agreed to the proposal.
For the next period of time, the vampire clan retreated completely.
They were already elusive, and with this deliberate hiding, the Blood Hunters wouldn't be able to find them for a while.
However, Yu Wanwan and Xu Qingzhou didn't put much effort into searching.
Their original goal was to force them into hiding, so they wouldn't have time to interfere in the Xu family's affairs.
Now that their goal has been achieved, the two have resumed their underhanded activities without leaving a trace.
and……
Yu Wanwan glanced at the sky.
That unknown force that has been lurking in the shadows is about to reveal itself.
Soon, she'll find out which bastard is making things harder for her!
While the vampires were busy waking up their prince, the Xu family was also not at peace.
As soon as Su Wan regained her mobility, she immediately drafted a divorce agreement and had her lawyer deliver it to the head of the Xu family.
Since Su Wan never showed up, it was always his lawyer and the haggard and weak Xu Mingjing who were in contact with him.
The head of the Xu family had no suspicions whatsoever.
Of course, it's also possible that the divorce agreement only required them to take what belonged to the Su family, and didn't ask for anything else.
Based on Su Jiazhu's understanding of Su Wan, if this divorce agreement was written by her own hand, it's impossible that she would only have such few demands.
That's someone who never suffers a loss.
After confirming that there were no loopholes or pitfalls in the agreement, the Xu family head signed it without hesitation.
It is certainly a pity to lose the Su family's share of the profits.
But compared to the benefits Xu Qingzhou could bring, it's insignificant.
To the surprise of the Xu family head, the Su family quickly began to sever ties with the Xu family as soon as the divorce was finalized.
We didn't even have to wait a day longer.
By the time Old Master Xu found out, it was already too late.
Asset liquidation, equity transfer, divestiture of cooperative projects...
The series of actions were swift, precise, and ruthless, leaving the Xu family no time to react and ruthlessly tearing a piece of their flesh away.
The Xu Group's stock price plummeted, and internal chaos ensued.
Old Master Xu was in a state of great distress, trying to stabilize the situation.
But the Su family's actions were too fast and too ruthless.
Even if it means sacrificing some of their own interests, they show no mercy.
Old Master Xu was so angry that he suffered a stroke and was hospitalized before he could even ask what the head of the Xu family had done.
His eyes are crooked and his mouth is slanted; he cannot speak a single word clearly or completely.
They ended up with the same fate as in the original story.
Without Old Master Xu as the pillar of support, the Xu family head simply couldn't hold on.
He is indeed talented and intelligent.
Unfortunately, he used his talent and intelligence for crooked and evil purposes.
Having lost Old Master Xu, and having severed ties with that vampire clan member.
He was powerless to reverse the situation and could only watch helplessly as the Xu family's assets shrank little by little because of the loss of the Su family.
In the end, they couldn't even afford to pay for Grandpa Xu's hospitalization.
It was Xu Mingjing who stepped forward to pay the fees for Old Master Xu.
At this point, Su Wan stopped attacking the Xu family.
It's not that I'm soft-hearted.
Instead, she knew very well that if she pushed him too far, he would definitely do something desperate.
After all, he was Xu Mingjing's biological father, and she didn't want her son to be the subject of gossip.
Su Wan informed Xu Qingzhou of the outcome without any intention of hiding it from him.
Xu Qingzhou simply chuckled.
"I understand, Aunt Su, don't worry, he won't be able to get up."
Even after suppressing him to this extent, you can still make him jump up.
Then all those years of his life have been wasted.
The matter with the Xu family has come to an end.
On this battlefield, the war with the vampires has only just begun.
An ancient, powerful, and violent aura spread out.
A handsome man dressed in an ancient dragon robe silently floated above the battlefield.
The oppressive aura emanating from him caused many of the people below to kneel down.
The once bustling battlefield fell into a moment of deathly silence.
Even in distant cities, one can vaguely sense a nameless palpitation and panic.
The vampires submitted to this oppressive force originating from the depths of their bloodline.
"Greetings, Prince Xuan Yi!"
"Welcome back Prince Xuanyi!"
Humans, however, are forced to be suppressed and cannot even get up.
Apart from two people.
Oh no, it should be one person and one cat.
Xuan Yi looked down at the two people who were unaffected by his pressure, his gaze revealing displeasure.
"Are you the culprits who have harmed my people?"
Xu Qingzhou tightened his grip on the Dawnlight Sword.
"You're the final boss?"
He truly lives up to his reputation as a third-generation monster.
The sheer pressure alone is that strong.
However, compared to the strength of the Tribulation Transcending Ancestor, he is still somewhat inferior.
Xuan Yi: "?"
Ultimately what?
Persia?
"presumptuous!"
He is clearly the Son of Heaven, how could he possibly be that lowly alien race!
Yu Wanwan seemed to be deep in thought.
Strange, he doesn't have any aura of otherworldly power on him.
Did she guess wrong?
Did those people leave anything on him?
Yu Wanwan glanced at Xu Qingzhou, who was eager to try, and patted him on the head with her paw.
"..."
Xu Qingzhou's eye twitched.
I'm wondering what to do if something unexpected happens?
Unfortunately, Yu Wanwan had already jumped onto a nearby tree branch, tucking her paws in, looking like she was watching a show.
"..."
What can you do but indulge a wife like that?
Xu Qingzhou sighed sadly, flicked the sword in his hand, leaped forward, and slashed out with his sword.
Xuan Yi clearly hadn't expected that he would actually dare to take the initiative.
This is blatant provocation!
His anger intensified, and with a flick of his sleeve, an ice pillar crashed down, meeting the shimmering sword head-on.
"Arrogant!"
The icicle and the sword light collided violently, producing a deafening roar.
The forces of extreme cold and extreme warmth clashed violently and annihilated each other, creating a shockwave that sent all the rubble and dust flying from the surrounding ground.
Those vampires who were slightly closer were instantly crushed into dust by this shockwave!
On the human side, with Yu Wanwan protecting them, they were only dizzy from the shock and suffered no serious injuries.
As the light faded, Xu Qingzhou stood on the ground, sword in hand, slightly out of breath.
This body has never been trained and relies only on a meager amount of light magic to withstand this attack; it's far too difficult for it.
Xuan Yi hovered in the air, his displeasure turning into a hint of surprise.
Although he didn't use his full strength in that attack, it was definitely not something an ordinary high-level vampire could withstand.
This human...
"You're good."
A hint of appreciation appeared on Xuan Yi's face.
That's how those in positions of power perceive the appreciation and satisfaction of those in positions of power.
"Would you like to become my subject?"
There was nothing lofty about it, yet it felt so natural and taken for granted.
Xu Qingzhou's expression was somewhat strange.
Has this prince slept for too long and made himself stupid?
Thinking it through, he actually asked that question.
And the question was asked with such sincerity and innocence.
Xuan Yi's aura turned cold, and countless ice crystals condensed around him, causing the temperature in the forest to drop sharply.
"act recklessly!"
He flickered and vanished from his spot in an instant.
Xu Qingzhou's brow twitched, and without hesitation, he held his sword horizontally in front of him.
Clang!
The sound of metal clashing was jarring.
Xuan Yi's figure appeared beside him like a ghost, his pale fingers actually gripping the blade of the Dawn Sword!
Xuan Yi's fingers were scorched by the light magic contained within the sword, causing them to emit black smoke.
He instinctively let go, but Xu Qingzhou seized the opportunity and thrust his sword forward.
Xuan Yi's figure disappeared again, and the sword missed its mark.
He reappeared in mid-air, his face grim as he examined the sword.
Before he could even speak, a gust of wind came from the side.
It was filled with intense killing intent.
Xuan Yi had no choice but to abandon his curiosity about Xu Qingzhou and the sword, and turn around to block them.
"Yu Jiao, it's you again, you traitor!"
The person who suddenly appeared was none other than Chi Lian, who was supposed to be under the supervision of the Blood Hunter Department.
She still possessed that alluring charm, but her eyes seemed to be filled with ice, colder than Xuan Yi's frost.
Chi Lian let out a short "Ha," filled with endless mockery.
"Traitor? Yuan Chen! Who is the real traitor here!"
As she spoke, her attacks did not stop.
"As the emperor of mankind, you have betrayed your promise and attempted to destroy your former people!"
Mocking and disgusting words were uttered with each move.
It was filled with endless ruthless killing intent.
"As a vampire prince, you have been ungrateful, betraying the sincerity and trust of the Quicksand Clan and disregarding the reputation of the vampire clan!"
Every word is written in blood, every move is deadly!
"Disloyal, unjust, disrespectful, and unfilial, you deserve to die!"
It was only then that the Blood Hunters realized why their instructor had shown mercy to this vampire woman.
They even got her assigned to the Blood Hunters department to be their sparring partner.
Compared to her current fighting skills, she was much more formidable when she faced them on her first mission.
It's practically filled with seawater!
but……
Yuan Chen?
Yu Jiao?
These two names sound familiar.
During the battle, upon hearing the name of Liu Sha, Xuan Yi's aura became momentarily disordered.
"Trust? Sincerity? If she truly trusts me and is sincere towards me, she should understand and support me!"
In the blink of an eye, he regained his usual dignified demeanor.
"My affairs are none of your concern, a mere concubine!"
"As for Liu'er, I don't blame her. Once my great cause is accomplished, I will naturally make her my empress and share the world with her!"
"madman!"
Chi Lian was so angry that she trembled all over.
"Liu Sha would never want to see a world like that!"
"She will!"
Xuan Yi spoke with unwavering resolve, tinged with a stubborn madness.
"Becoming a vampire means having great power and immortality. What's wrong with that?"
"When she wakes up and sees the perfect world I have created for her, she will surely understand me!"
Such debates have taken place countless times over the millennia.
Chi Lian completely lost the will to argue with him and shut up to focus on attacking.
The two vampires above were fighting fiercely and arguing incessantly.
Below, Xu Qingzhou, sword in hand, looked up at the two trembling figures, looking somewhat weary.
So, what's the situation now?
Even the Emperor himself has appeared. Is this some ancient relic from some distant past?
Should he continue watching the show, or go up and interrupt them?
Yu Wanwan was also completely bewildered.
She wasn't interested in those old stories and didn't even ask about Chi Lian's specific origins.
For her, Chi Lian was a pretty useful tool.
It would be a shame to destroy it.
Yu Wanwan rolled up a small twig and tapped Xu Qingzhou on the head.
