The Scarlet Moon Festival is the most grand festival of the blood clan. On this day, all the twelve clans, except the Ravno clan, will hold grand sacrificial activities. On this day, all the vampires in the clan will return to the clan’s place of residence and attend the sacrifice in their best clothes.
The most important step is to sacrifice the vampires' natural enemies to the moon. On this day, the moon turns blood red, invisible to the human eye but visible only to the vampires. The vampires' abilities also increase several times on this day, reaching their peak.
Blood sacrifice is to tie the natural enemy to a cross and place it on the altar. It is a blasphemy against God. The wizard casts a spell, and Feiyue will inject power into the natural enemy. This power from nature will weaken the natural enemy. When his body can no longer bear it, his blood will be shared by the pure-blooded vampires above the level of elders in the clan to enhance their strength.
The mysterious power of the Scarlet Moon must be filtered through the blood of a natural enemy before it can be absorbed by vampires. Otherwise, simply standing under the Scarlet Moon will be useless. When the Scarlet Moon ends, all abilities gained under the Scarlet Moon disappear. Only by absorbing the blood of a sacrifice can these abilities be preserved. The stronger the natural enemy, the more and more stable the power vampires can obtain.
All the vampires of the Lesomba tribe who were qualified to suck the sacrifices were dead, leaving only Tang Xiu, the supreme commander, who naturally could enjoy the blood blade alone.
However, in order to win over the hearts of the people, Tang Xiu selected 12 people from the clan to share with him. These 12 people included the older ones, the reliable ones, the loyal ones, the prestigious ones, and the ones who also knew how to win over the hearts of the people...
Yuri lay leisurely under the altar, with his hands behind his head, listening to the noise outside. The first part was the Moon Dance. Yuri didn't need to look to know that a group of vampires were dancing a weird dance around the altar outside with their fangs and claws bared.
"How boring, there's nothing new about it!" Yuri complained.
After finally reaching the blood sacrifice part, he heard that it suddenly became quiet outside. A solemn atmosphere spread throughout the altar, which directly affected Yuri. Yuri also put away his leisurely demeanor and listened carefully.
After waiting for a while, there was a commotion outside. Someone whispered to Tang Xiu that the Blood Blade was missing. Although the voice was very low, it could not escape the ears of the vampires. There was a sudden commotion outside, and all kinds of noises could be heard.
"Gone!?" Yuri sat up suddenly, forgetting that the altar was short. With a bang, his head hit the stone altar hard, making a dull sound.
"Who!" Tang Xiu looked at the altar vigilantly, and then someone lifted the cloth covering the altar. Yuri greeted with a smile, "Hi!" Then he kicked out with such force that the innocent vampire was kicked directly off the cliff.
A hysterical scream echoed in the valley.
Luo Youyou heard the cry from afar and her heart tightened. Without waiting for Yuri's signal, she flew over here quickly. When she flew above the altar, Yuri was surrounded by layers of people. A grand sacrificial ceremony turned into a bloody battle. With Yuri as the center, countless corpses were lying around, and the blood was dripping. The river of blood dyed the altar red.
Luo Youyou was shocked when she saw Yuri fighting. She always thought that Yuri only knew illusion, but she didn't expect that even if Yuri didn't use illusion and only used his bare hands, no one would have a chance to hurt him.
Luo Youyou noticed that in the dense crowd, everyone rushed towards Yuri, but there was one person who was heading in the opposite direction, retreating inconspicuously in the chaos.
Luo Youyou took a closer look and found that it was the female version of Jing Yan!
She was a little amused and confused. Jing Yan always did such shocking things.
Soon someone noticed that Jing Yan was retreating. They first scolded him for being a coward, and then someone exposed his identity, and Jing Yan was also caught up in the battle.
"I told you to stay at home, why are you making trouble!" Yuri shouted from a distance, but his body was already moving towards Jing Yan.
"You won't be exhausted after dealing with so many people!" Jing Yan resolved his own crisis while fighting back against Yuri, but he was also approaching Yuri.
Luo Youyou originally wanted to fly down to help, but seeing this situation, he flew a little higher and looked down at the battle below.
After a while, Jing Yan and Yuri formed an alliance, standing back to back and concentrating on dealing with the people in front of them. This was obviously much easier than dealing with the vampires rushing towards them from all directions.
People often say that only when you completely trust someone can you turn your back to them without worry. Luo Youyou looked at the two people standing back to back, a smile on her lips.
"Let me make it clear in advance that I'm not on good terms with you, but we have the same goal and can cooperate temporarily!" Jing Yan said as he fought.
"Same here! Stop talking nonsense! Save your energy!... Be careful!" Yuri had just finished speaking when he helped Jing Yan deal with a man who rushed up from the right and almost cut off his arm.
"No need to thank me!" Yuri said proudly.
"I'm not planning to thank you! Mind your own business! Up there!" Jing Yan shouted the last two words, and Yuri quickly dealt with the people attacking from above.
"We're even now, no need to thank me!" Jing Yan imitated Yuri's arrogant look and said with raised eyebrows.
"If you hadn't distracted me with your nonsense, I wouldn't have been ambushed!" Yuri snorted coldly.
Luo Youyou was watching from above. Although Lesenba was becoming increasingly weak, there were still quite a few of them, surrounding them like ants. If this continued, they would never be able to defeat the enemy even if the battle lasted until dawn. Luo Youyou leaned over and flew down, ready to join the battle, but suddenly a ray of reflected light from the other side of Tuoshan shot straight into her eyes.
It was a beam of light like a chasing spotlight, not very dazzling. Luo Youyou glanced in that direction, and the light disappeared. She was a little confused, and there was no time to think too much. She was about to fly down, but the beam of light shot towards her again, and swayed, as if trying to attract her.
Luo Youyou was puzzled for a moment, then leaned over and flew towards the light source.
A man with stern eyebrows, a tight chin, a high nose, and thick eyebrows looked at Luo Youyou with a faint smile. Another man followed him, standing on his left with his hands behind his back, with a submissive attitude, holding something in his hand that looked like a flashlight, but was obviously not a flashlight.
"Are you looking for me?" Luo Youyou asked the man in front of her.
The man had pale skin and smelled of poppies. His eyes were sharp and he exuded a powerful aura. His smile made it hard to tell whether he was a friend or foe, but his eyes revealed a hint of calculation that could not be hidden.
"The blood blade is in my hand."
