Chapter 66: Elegy - The Death of Luo Youyou
Luo Youyou quickly flapped his wings, preparing to escape from the encirclement, but suddenly a huge net appeared in the air, covering Luo Youyou. Luo Youyou was trapped in the net, as powerless as a trapped beast, and was pulled by the net and fell heavily to the ground.
The killers quickly reorganized their formation and ran around Luo Youyou in the net like they did at the beginning, but this time, in the dark shadows formed by the running, swords suddenly shot out from the shadows, one after another in an orderly manner, and stabbed Luo Youyou accurately.
In just a moment, Luo Youyou's body was covered with wounds and blood was flowing. The black dress was stained red by blood, forming a dark red color. The dull color was dazzling and the blood smell in the air was even thicker. Some of the nobles' servants, due to their low rank, could not bear the temptation of blood and began to get restless. The fresh blood that had just flowed out of Luo Youyou's body was much more tempting than the overnight blood in the goblet.
"Youyou!"
"Youyou!"
Jing Yan and Yuri screamed at the same time, their voices were desolate, sad, full of endless worry, and hatred towards Jiayi.
However, this was only the first wave of attacks...
Luo Youyou's wings, which she had no time to retract, were now riddled with holes. The second round of assassinations came, and when the first sword was about to stab Luo Youyou, she folded her wings to protect them. At Jiayi's command, all the attacks stopped, the strong wind stopped instantly, and all the killers surrounded Luo Youyou, standing with their hands behind their backs, lowering their heads slightly, because Jiayi was already standing beside Luo Youyou, and grabbed her wings the moment she retracted them. Luo Youyou was too weak to break free, and being held by him, a sense of shame that arose from her heart, accompanied by a piercing pain, made her body tremble slightly.
Jiayi carefully examined her wings. The black feathers exuded a silky luster, smooth and soft, like a black swan, noble and elegant, but also like an angel fallen into the mortal world, written with sorrow and decadence.
Jiayi felt a burning sensation on his hands, and the heat brought waves of piercing pain. He suddenly let go of his wings. His hands were as if they had been exposed to the most scorching sun. They were red, swollen, and charred. A burnt smell came from the palms of his hands.
The other people in the hall also noticed the sudden smell and looked at the center of the dance floor in astonishment. Incredible gazes, one after another, focused on Luo Youyou, examining this beautiful girl with mysterious powers.
A storm gathered in Jiayi's eyes, and a hint of murderous intent suddenly appeared, but it only flashed by, and the calculation in his eyes became even stronger.
A vampire dressed as a servant suddenly rushed up and bit Luo Youyou's throat when no one was paying attention. Blood spurted into the servant's mouth. The servant sucked the blood greedily. Jiayi suddenly kicked the servant away.
The servant was kicked high into the air and hit a thick stone pillar heavily. His eyes suddenly widened and he turned into ashes in an instant.
"No!" A shrill female voice suddenly resounded throughout the castle, filled with sorrow and grief.
A woman with purple hair and green eyes ran towards the place where the servant disappeared with a sad look, but she didn't catch even a trace of ash.
"Ah~" The heart-wrenching cry moved everyone who heard it.
"Hmph, just a servant!" Someone in the crowd looked at the princess - the supreme ruler of the Mukavi tribe - with disdain, their eyes full of disdain and ridicule.
"You don't know, this servant is her dearest child." Another voice sounded, with the same mockery and indifference to seeing a life disappear.
"It's such a disgrace to the Mokawi people..."
The woman's name is Yukishen Xun, and she is a princess of the Mokawi tribe. The servant is the human she fell in love with. In order to be able to stay with him forever, she ignored the opposition of her tribe and embraced him to turn him into a vampire. Due to his young age, he can only serve as a servant temporarily and follow Yukishen Xun. His status in the Mokawi tribe is second only to the first person.
The bloodline of the Malkavians was flawed at its very source. Pureblooded vampires were no different from ordinary people, but humans who were first embraced invariably became mentally disturbed, even insane. They followed the impulses in their bodies, often unable to control their behavior, and did things that were detrimental to the reputation of the Malkavians.
Thousands of years ago, the elders' council of the Maukavi tribe passed a resolution that would never allow the emergence of collateral bloodlines. The Maukavi tribe is the only clan among the 13 clans that has only pure-blooded vampires, which also makes them powerful.
The servant was Terry, who had lived there for thousands of years. Despite the opposition of the Elders, the Moon Goddess Xun transformed the human Embrace into a vampire. When the servant smelled Luo Youyou's blood, he couldn't control the desire in his body. The more blood Luo Youyou drank, the more blurred his consciousness became, and he eventually couldn't control himself and pounced on her...
Yue Shenxun suddenly turned around and stared at Luo Youyou with bloodshot eyes. Luo Youyou was covered in wounds that had not yet healed. The pain made her not notice Yue Shenxun's vicious gaze.
Yueshenxun suddenly became violent, rushed to the middle of the dance floor, grabbed a sword, and stabbed Luo Youyou in the chest.
Luo Youyou was covered by the net and unable to resist, and Yue Shenxun's action came too suddenly. Jiayi did not expect that she would disregard the laws of the secret party and lose control for a servant, so everything happened in an instant, and the sword had pierced Luo Youyou, right through her heart.
The entire hall fell silent in an instant. People could already sense the gloomy atmosphere that suddenly erupted around Jiayi. It was as if dark clouds had gathered over the hall, pressing down heavily, solidifying the air and suffocating everyone present.
Jing Yan and Yuri had forgotten to react. They only felt the sword pierce their hearts. The pain was so severe that they didn't even have the strength to scream. Their hearts were swallowed by darkness, and only the sound of the blunt blade tearing at flesh remained...
Luo Youyou's eyes were clear and empty, flowing with a strange light. Her eyes were like the Canglang Star, which had taken away the brilliance of the stars. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she was as beautiful as a water lily. In just a moment, the brightness in her eyes suddenly dissipated, and she became dead. When the last bit of light disappeared, she slowly closed her eyes and fell in a pool of her own blood. In this battle, there was only her own blood. She had no power to fight back, and all her vitality was taken away by a sword.
At this moment, the wind does not move, the water does not move, the clouds do not move, time stands still, all the flowers wither, the world falls into endless darkness and dead silence. Occasionally, the sound of a hawk screams in the sky, singing a sad elegy that touches people's heartstrings.
The hall instantly lost all its colors, the candlelight moved without wind, it was quiet and eerie. In the summer, the temperature of the hall suddenly dropped to freezing point, and the cold wind made the vampires who could not feel the temperature feel their skin cold, and it hurt because of the torn skin by the cold wind.
