Chapter 96: The Blood Clan Appears Out of Nowhere
"......"
When it comes to the struggle for the throne, the scene becomes a little dull for a moment. Seeing that everyone was in a bad mood, Debra quickly changed the subject. She looked around and didn't find the expected person. She asked in surprise, "Why hasn't His Highness Lawrence come today? He always arrives early in the past."
The Lawrence she was talking about was another crown prince of Country F. He was originally the third prince, but the second prince died soon after he was born. The royal family did not calculate the second prince's ranking and directly counted him as the second prince. He was also the eldest prince's most favorable competitor, and the eldest prince and his men had cursed him in secret countless times.
In order to increase his own bargaining chips, His Royal Highness Lawrence had long ago won over this group of "aristocrats". Whenever his important allies had a large banquet, he would attend to show his support. At times like the Taylor family patriarch's birthday party, he usually arrives well in advance. Why hasn't he come today?
Uncle Wesley is the leader of the 'Aristocratic Party'. No matter what, Prince Lawrence will not be rude at his birthday party.
Stephanie Ashley also knew the reason. She frowned and said with a bit of worry, "I don't know either. I haven't heard from His Highness Lawrence since the banquet started. I only know that His Highness did leave his mansion very early. Logically, he should have arrived very early."
"But you haven't received any news from the Royal Guard, right?" Hubert Morin, the eldest son of the Morin family, interrupted. The safety of the princes is the responsibility of the Royal Guard. Once they encounter danger, the highest level of defense mechanism will be activated. It is impossible for them not to receive any news.
"Yes, so maybe it was just some unexpected situation." Stephanie had no other choice. Since she couldn't contact anyone, she could only wait patiently.
Just when everyone was worried about Lawrence Leopold, the person in question suddenly appeared quietly in the middle of the banquet hall, accompanied by a handsome man that no one present knew.
The man's appearance was so enchanting that no one noticed how Prince Lawrence suddenly appeared. His pupils seemed to be flashing scarlet light under the reflection of the crystal chandelier.
Prince Lawrence didn't seem to mind having his attention taken away by the person next to him. He even looked very proud at the way everyone was obsessed with that person.
Shocked by this scene, Wesley Taylor and Stephanie Ashley hesitated for a moment. They stood where they were, hesitating and not daring to move forward. Compared to the other guests who were still immersed in the handsome appearance of the strange man, the couple discovered Prince Lawrence's abnormality earlier.
This prince was not one to let others steal the limelight for no reason, and now he was willing to take a back seat, standing respectfully half a step behind the man in a posture that could be considered submissive.
This is much more shocking than Prince Lawrence bringing a stranger to the banquet. Plus, the world is undergoing tremendous changes now, and they both have the same worry in their hearts: will Prince Lawrence encounter some... monster?
But this guess cannot be said casually, and even the expression cannot change at all. At least until the situation becomes clear, Lawrence Leopold is still the crown prince of their country F, the 'king' chosen by the Taylor and Ashley families, and they must be respectful.
Wesley Taylor used his eyes to stop his wife Stephanie from going forward. He straightened his clothes, put on a warm smile, and went forward to greet the prince.
"Your Highness Lawrence, may I ask who this gentleman is?" He did not mention that Lawrence was late, nor did he start to flatter him. He just looked at him with a curious and polite smile, and then looked at the man in front of him, wanting to get his introduction.
As if he was very satisfied with Wesley's attitude, Lawrence also put on a warm attitude and excitedly introduced him: "This is my supreme father, the great Kyle Bertram Chapman!"
Wesley Taylor: "......"
What? ? ? Did he hear correctly? ? The Supreme Father? ? His Highness Lawrence has changed his father. Does their King know?
Of course, this was just a joke. In fact, at this time, Wesley's heart was already filled with a sinister premonition. He could no longer hold back his expression of mixed worry and fear, and his feet couldn't help but move back slightly, revealing a defensive posture.
Of course Lawrence could see what he was thinking, but he didn't care. No matter how fearful and resistant they were now, they would naturally change after the great Father granted them awakening.
So he ignored Wesley's stiff face, pressed his shoulders firmly to keep him where he was, then turned around and raised his voice to call his wife over: "Madam, please come here."
Stephanie, who was directly named, had no way to escape. She quickly gave the Morin family a look that said "please be patient", and then strode towards her husband in an unladylike manner.
The Morin family who were left behind were extremely worried, and the sentimental Debra almost cried out of anxiety. Those present were not naive, and they all noticed Prince Lawrence's abnormality, as well as the words he said, which were a naked declaration of the problem with the strange man.
But no one dared to stand up and say anything. Who knew the identity of the other party and what means he used to control Lawrence Leopold and make him abandon his own identity and obey him only.
Considering the other party's methods, the other guests did not dare to move before he or Lawrence spoke. They could only stand where they were, tightly holding the hands of their female companions, suppressing the fear in their hearts.
Forcefully forcing a smile, Stephanie said in a slightly trembling voice, "Your Highness Lawrence, and this lord, good night."
Unexpectedly, this noble lady came over to greet him. Kyle Bertram Chapman, as Lawrence called her, raised her eyebrows with interest, put on a wicked smile, and said lazily in a magnetic voice, "Good night, Mrs. Ashley."
Seeing Kyle's different attitude towards Stephanie, Lawrence's attitude towards her also changed immediately. The smile on his face instantly became sincere and extraordinary. "Mrs. Stephanie, allow me to introduce you to my great father, one of the twelve princes of the blood clan, a supreme king."
"Blood, blood clan?!" Stephanie exclaimed.
"Prince of the Blood Clan?!"
The slightly shrill female voice and the slightly deeper male voice beside it echoed throughout the banquet hall. The content of their screams instantly caused the crowded crowd in the hall to explode. People retreated one after another, leaving a large open space where the four of them were.
Even many timid ladies couldn't help but start sobbing quietly, filling the silent hall with an atmosphere of despair.
Seeing their rude behavior, Lawrence was unhappy. He frowned and shouted in a very bad tone: "Is this your attitude when you see His Majesty?! It's too rude! Why don't you bow and apologize to His Majesty the Prince!"
Originally, no one wanted to obey Lawrence's orders, but for some reason, as Lawrence's scarlet eyes became more and more red, everyone felt an invisible force spreading in the air, controlling everyone's limbs, and assuming a posture of submission with kneeling on one knee, touching their hearts with their right hands, and lowering their heads.
The only two exceptions were Wesley Taylor and Stephanie Ashley who were standing next to them, but this extraordinary scene made the two of them completely unable to resist.
The ability of a blood prince is simply not something that ordinary people can contend with. Even if there is an entire army ready for battle, it would be difficult to hurt him at all.
At the moment, I just hope that Lawrence didn’t bring the prince here just to fill his stomach, otherwise, today’s birthday party will probably end with a bloodbath at Taylor’s house.
Prince Kyle, the person involved in the incident, did not have any special reaction to Lawrence's unauthorized behavior, and still looked lazy and nonchalant.
Many of those kneeling down were bigwigs who were powerful enough to influence the economic development of half of the earth. They were considered top-notch in terms of identity and status among humans, but in the eyes of Prince Kyle, they seemed to have less presence than Stephanie Ashley.
Of course this doesn't mean that he is fond of women. In fact, he just gave her a little response when they first met, and then he ignored her. He just looked around, not knowing what he was thinking.
"......"
Kyle didn't respond, and everyone just knelt in silence, waiting for their fate.
After being distracted for a while, Kyle looked at everyone. However, he did not let Lawrence release the control. Instead, he said to him directly: "Are these two the men you begged me to grant you?"
The Taylors stared at the two men in confusion, but the words 'plead' and 'grant' made their hearts slide into the abyss uncontrollably.
This is the worst possible development...
What else could the vampires' gift be? Perhaps it was to be reincarnated as a vampire like Lawrence. Maybe if they are lucky, they can save their lives, but if they are unlucky, they will probably just be unconscious monsters in the future. You know, in the legend, there is a failure rate in the transformation of vampires. If it fails, they will just become bloodthirsty monsters.
The couple's faces turned as pale as corpses the moment they realized what was happening. Their bodies couldn't stop shaking, and the frequency of the shaking was getting louder and louder. Anyone could understand how scared they were.
Kyle did not care about their rudeness. After confirming Lawrence's intention, he dragged the two men in front of him directly, stretched out his cold fingers with sharp nails, and cruelly cut the neck of his prey.
Instantly, boiling blood spurted out, staining the carpet within a one-meter radius with blood, and the area was threatening to turn into a pool of blood. Kyle and Lawrence standing in front of them were not stained by the blood, as if there was an invisible barrier that blocked the liquid outside their bodies.
The guests who were still kneeling in a kneeling position could no longer hold back their fear when they saw this bloody and cruel scene, and they began to scream at the top of their lungs. Unfortunately, they forgot that they were still under control. The so-called shrill screams were just their imaginations. In reality, there was no other sound in the hall except the hissing sound of blood splattering.
Among them, the reaction of the four members of the Maureen family was the most intense. If Debra had not been unable to move, she would have rushed forward desperately the moment Stephanie's throat was cut. Unfortunately, she was just an ordinary person and could only kneel on the ground in despair, watching her beloved aunt and uncle being killed.
After a while, the blood in Wesley and Stephanie's bodies was almost used up, so Kyle cut the wrist of Lawrence beside him and transferred his blood into the bodies of the two.
"...Father?" Lawrence's body did not resist at all despite being suddenly attacked, and he continued to let Kyle do the things obediently. But he didn't quite understand Kyle's actions. Why did he use his blood to preside over the reincarnation ceremony of the Taylors?
