Yuechu stood in the center with a smile on her face, surrounded by people like stars holding the moon. Lonely, who used to only stand in the corner, had long since disappeared, completely replacing Hino's position and becoming the most dazzling existence.
Louis stood with arms folded, clinging to Yuechu's right side, his scarlet eyes looked hostilely at Feilin who was directly opposite, with a hint of vigilance in his contempt.
A failed guy actually wanted to compete for the position next to His Royal Highness Yuechu. He was afraid that he would not be able to see how much he weighed if his brain was flooded. They should have left in embarrassment like a bereaved dog, and it was His Highness Yuechu who was gentle and benevolent and gave them a place to live.
Feilin's red lips were slightly raised, and her spirit was flying high. Her delicate makeup made her look like a blooming peony, so gorgeous that it was eye-catching. The close-fitting black gold inlaid dress outlines a hot and beautiful look, and there are thousands of styles in every look. Even knowing that she has been deprived of the title of waiter, there are still countless bloods who can't help but be attracted to her.
She didn't evade or retreat, and confronted Louis head-on without giving in, without any sign of depression. It's just that the rookie who lost to her in the first competition has the nerve to show his teeth and claws in front of her. Sure enough, his memory is not very good, and he always forgets how he once looked down and down.
There was a flash of lightning and thunder between the two people's eyes, and the menacing aura drove back several waves of courteous people.
And on their side was Dila wagging her tail. Surrounding Yuechu, he was like a loyal big dog, with watery eyes, full of loyalty and honesty, Yuechu told him to go east, but he would never go west.
He graciously took care of all the personal things of Yuechu, almost kneeling on the ground and walking away with his beloved highness behind his back. Anyone who dared to come up to take his place was scared away by the grinning bark, and could only look at Di helplessly. La shamelessly flatters.
Dila knew that his brain was not as flexible as Feilin's, but he was shameless, and he could also use his strengths to snatch his position beside Yuechu.
It's just... It's just that His Highness is so good-looking, it always makes him a little dizzy.
Yuechu chuckled lightly, pretending that she couldn't see the turbulent undercurrent among these people, well, it's actually quite good to have competition.
At this moment, Hino finally came. He who had just recovered from his injuries looked pale and lack of energy, with a slightly bent back, not a bit of his former demeanor.
When he came in, the lively hall was silent for a moment, and all kinds of meaningful eyes focused on Hino, which made him look embarrassed. All these encounters that Yuechu had experienced in the past were all on Xinuo's turn, and obviously Xinuo did not have such a good temper to treat them indifferently.
Hino gritted his teeth, a surge of anger welled up in his chest, and he fell from the high altar into the mud. The drop made him unacceptable.
He squinted his eyes, and his fierce eyes swept across the faces of those people, as if he wanted to engrave their appearance in his heart.
But no one was afraid of his gaze, and even looked back mockingly, talking in a low voice with meaning. Those contemptuous faces hurt Hino's proud self-esteem, scraping his thin skin like a sharp knife, making his face twisted and ugly, making him even more ugly.
Yuechu admired his colorful face for a while, then Shi Shiran stepped forward and said softly, "Brother Wang, you are here."
Hino's face turned cold, and he let out a cold snort from his nose. He didn't like this cheap younger brother who had succeeded in the position. He can say that he doesn't want to be a prince, but he can't let others take away what belongs to him.
He became more and more resentful towards his father, and sure enough, his father had thought this way since he brought Yuechu back!
Hino: "Don't call me Brother Wang, I don't have a brother like you!"
Yuechu raised his eyebrows, looking at this arrogant attitude, it seems that Xinuo has not realized that many things have changed.
Louis was the first to jump out, his handsome face was full of arrogance and arrogance, his eyes were not his eyes and his nose was not his nose, he gave Hino a sideways glance, showing no respect at all.
Louis: "Indeed, I heard that His Majesty originally wanted to deprive His Highness Hino of the title of prince and demote you to a commoner, but it's not that you almost couldn't be the brother of His Highness Yuechu."
After he finished speaking, he grinned wantonly and showed a wanton smile. The irony was self-evident, and he almost slapped Hino on the face.
Shino sharpened his eyebrows, clenched his fists tightly, and stabbed at Louis coldly. A nobleman dared to speak nonsense in front of him.
Hino: "What are you, how dare you shout in front of me!"
Shino's arm instantly turned into a black and red thorny tentacles, like a dark red lightning, directly attacking Louis.
The distance was too short, and no one expected that Sino would do something in the school. For a while, Louis could only shrink his pupils, ready to resist the attack.
However, Shino's attack was unsuccessful, and Yue Chu, who was standing beside Louis, grabbed the tentacles, making it impossible for Shino to advance an inch.
He was still smiling Yan Yan, with an ecstatic softness between his eyebrows and eyes, like the spring breeze turning into rain, softening the whole world. But the vigorous power rippling all over his body made people realize that this His Highness is obviously not simple.
Yue Chu said with a smile: "Brother Wang has become more and more tempered. Always attacking the same clan will make the father unhappy."
With a push, he threw the tentacles back to Shino's body, and the powerful force forced the old wounded Shino to stagger back a few steps. If he hadn't held on to the wall, he might have fallen to the ground in embarrassment.
Xinuo's chest heaved violently, and he looked at the leisurely Yuechu coldly, his humiliated ugly look almost nailing him to the pillar for others to mock at will.
When did Yuechu become so strong!
However, no one would sympathize with him. Yuechu's words made all the vampires present cold-faced. They had long heard that His Highness Xinuo had done something to Feilin and Dila who had grown up with him. The first time I saw it with my own eyes, I became more and more dissatisfied.
Misled by Yuechu, they had long forgotten that it was Luis who provoked Hino first.
Fortunately, Roots arrived late, finally ended this little farce, and began to arrange the upcoming trial.
Roots: "Now everyone is divided into two groups. One group is led by His Royal Highness Yuechu, and the other group is led by His Royal Highness Xinuo. They divide into two groups and attack from the north and the south. In order to seize the opportunity, you must take the lead in the early morning seven days later. The hunters in the town are going to kill, looking forward to your performance."
Roots clapped his hands, indicating that everyone can volunteer to form a team.
However, an embarrassing thing happened soon, everyone lined up behind Yuechu, and there was no one around Xinuo.
Roots frowned: "Split people to His Highness Shino's side, otherwise how can we form a group!"
Roots' stern words moved the little nobles, but they were still reluctant and didn't want to take that broken ship at all.
Such a situation is tantamount to slapping Shino hard across the face, making his face flushed, and the anger in his eyes almost bursting into the sky. He wouldn't even glance at those little nobles who followed behind him to show courteousness, but now they dare to belittle him!
Hino clenched his fists tightly, his teeth were clenched, and the corners of his eyes were so vicious that they almost dripped blood.
He raised his head proudly, and disdainfully glanced at those people: "No, I can do it by myself!"
The little nobles almost applauded him, and immediately stood in the line with peace of mind, not moving a single step.
Hino hated it very much, and waited until he won a complete victory in this trial and they would please him.
Roots didn't even object, and began to explain the hunter group's information to everyone. The trial this time is obviously much more risky than the previous one. The cleaning operation led by the Hunter Association is very difficult to deal with.
Yuechu didn't pay attention to Xinuo any more, but took Roots' explanation seriously in her heart. The corners of his lips curled slightly, his eyes flashed that he must win, and soon scattered into the starlight, annihilated in the warmth.
When Hino returned to the room, Anna was nowhere to be seen, and immediately began to search anxiously. Dangerous vampires are everywhere here, Anna is just a weak human being, and if she encounters danger, the consequences will be disastrous.
Just when he was anxious to send someone to look for him, Anna in a white dress came slowly.
As soon as Hino grabbed her hand, he looked at her nervously, fearing that she might be injured: "Anna, where have you been? Didn't I tell you that it's dangerous here, don't run around?"
Anna smiled timidly, and gently leaned her small face on Hino's shoulder, holding Hino's cold and broad palm with her tender little hands, her voice revealing a sense of pity and care.
Anna: "I'm sorry, I'm just a little hungry, so I had to go out and get some food."
Hino was taken aback for a moment. He forgot that Anna was human and needed to eat. He lowered his head and kissed Anna on the face in frustration, and said "Sorry" in a low voice.
Hino: "It was my negligence, I will have someone prepare your daily food."
Anna shook her head, her smooth long blond hair rubbed against Hino's sleeve, making a soft rustling sound.
She said softly: "It's not your fault, and I also found food, everyone is very polite to me, don't worry."
Speaking of this, Anna raised her small face with a smile like a flower, her big and bright blue eyes flashed with admiration for Hino.
Anna: "Hino is actually a prince, so amazing! Everyone has heard that I am your friend, and their attitude is very gentle. I am so happy!"
Hino pinched her little nose dotingly: "What kind of friend, they are obviously lovers."
Anna shyly covered her red face, and the dimples at the corners of her mouth revealed a shy sweetness. She tightly pinched Hino's sleeve, showing deep attachment in her expression.
Anna: "Will His Highness stay with me from now on? I don't want anything, I just want His Highness."
Hino wanted to say of course, but then remembered the trial task, he frowned slightly, and said apologetically: "Anna, I may have to go out in a few days. You don't have to worry, don't run around, just stay here obediently, okay?"
Anna didn't expect to get such an answer. The parting came so fast that she was caught off guard, and a thin layer of crystal tears floated in her big eyes, which was so pitiful that it broke Xinuo's heart.
She hugged Hino's arm anxiously: "Where is your Highness going? Can't you take me with you?"
Hino sighed, and comforted him: "It's... a task arranged by my father. I'm leaving in the early morning of seven days later. I'm afraid I won't be back until at least a month."
Anna's face was pale, and she was as weak as a flower blown away by the wind: "Why is it taking so long? Are you going to some dangerous place?"
Hino stroked her soft long hair: "No, just go to the western suburbs of Nanshan, which is the territory of the blood race, and it is very safe."
Only then did Anna fall into his embrace with attachment, her lowered face flashed with deep thought, and she said softly, "Then I can rest assured, I will wait here for your return."
noon
There was silence everywhere, Anna slipped out of the room like a ghost, went to a hiding place with the reason of taking food, and quietly released a bug.
The green bug flapped its wings and disappeared in a blink of an eye. Anna looked around, then picked up the food and left quietly.
After she disappeared, the little bug that flew out halfway seemed to smell something. Its long tentacles moved, and it deviated from the original route in a daze, and landed in a pair of snow-white hands.
That person is none other than Yuechu's maid Salu.
