The Haunted

Chapter 81: reason

Views:

Chi Yan could hear the shouting and mocking voices of the masked vampires—

"Oh, a human."

"how is this possible… "

"That Highness almost never has contact with the outside world."

"But how did he know that one?" There was also a slightly questioning voice.

Chi Yan knew that they didn't believe it, and he had to think of something else. In fact, from the previous series of events, including the attitude of werewolves and other blood races towards Prince Aimer, he also vaguely guessed how cold, inaccessible, powerful and mysterious figure among the blood races should be. Pretending to be his lover was a lot harder than pretending to be a romantic vampire.

It's a pity that he doesn't have any traces left by the other party now, nor does he wear Prince Aimer's coat, and he doesn't even have any proof that he has been in contact with the other party. So deceiving these vampires is much more difficult than deceiving Alex in the first place.

Chi Yan hesitated for a while, and then he took the next step and whispered: "... At least he likes to suck my blood." This time he didn't lie at all.

The vampire standing behind him just glanced at him with dark and disdainful eyes: "Although I don't know where you heard that name, but forcibly lying will not make you die happier."

"Boy, you'd better find out next time." He pulled out a cruel and sarcastic smile, "Every blood family knows that His Highness never sucks blood directly from the human body."

Chi Yan closed his eyes, and now no one believes him when he tells the truth.

How long has it been since they were caught? two hours? Three hours? Ye Yingzhi, did he find that something happened to him? Will he be able to contact the vampire hunters in time to save him? What if he doesn't find out? What if he can't make it in time? What awaits them

The triangular-shaped pointed cones flickered coldly under the candlelight, and were faintly stained with dark dark stains, like blood clotted dirt, indicating the coming cruel fate.

It's useless to move out of the name of Prince Aimer, and he can't just rely on Ye Yingzhi, he has to think of a way to escape from here, at least to save his life first... It's not feasible to rely on force, don't say that he is now With his hands tied, even if his limbs are flexible, he will definitely not be able to fight these vampires whose physical qualities are far superior to ordinary people and elusive...

His brain was rapidly simulating operations, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, sliding down his cheeks and rolling to the ground. Unconsciously after a high note, the song has gradually sung to the end.

Chi Yan raised his head and was about to put his thoughts into practice when he felt a hand gently wrapping his waist - a person stood behind him and pressed him intimately.

He could feel the man's movements gently loosen the black tape that had trapped the forearms of his hands, and take turns to put his numb wrists into the palms of his hands and gently press and knead them.

Chi Yan was stunned for a moment, then turned back slowly, Ye Yingzhi was standing in the shadow behind him, looking down at him.

I don't know what means he used. He stood here for so long, but no vampire found his existence, and no vampire found his infiltration.

Then Chi Yan turned back like a spell, instantly breaking the delicate balance before.

The executioner behind him seemed to have just noticed that there was another person in front of him, and he took a guarded posture. The man was wearing a long black coat, and his black hair fell neatly and naturally over his shoulders. He supported the waist of the human in front of him with one hand, and his expression was calm and calm. His face was a little pale, and he occasionally licked his teeth unconsciously when he stood there and hugged the human.

The sound stopped suddenly. The vampires under the platform also noticed the change on this side, and Qi Qi looked in this direction and looked at the uninvited intruder. When he sneaked in, he obviously deliberately restrained the breath around him, so that they could not easily judge his rank and identity, but they could still easily see that the man in front of him was also a vampire.

A vampire who acted intimately with the humans they captured as sacrifices.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" The executioner cautiously asked the vampire who suddenly appeared. The intuition he has developed over the past hundred years tells him that this blood clan may not be simple.

"I'll take him away." Ye Yingzhi stood up with his arms around Chi Yan, but ignored the previous question. After kneeling on the ground for too long, Chi Yan's legs were a little numb, so he could only quietly lean on Ye Yingzhi.

Ye Yingzhi seemed to realize this, his eyes darkened, and he hugged the person in his arms tighter.

He looked around the oval hall for a week, and said calmly, "As far as I know, pure blood sacrifice was banned two hundred years ago."

The executioner's expression became more vigilant: "Are you from the law enforcement team?"

Ye Yingzhi paused for a while, then replied plainly, "No."

The executioner was slightly relieved. He knew that the Thirteen Law Enforcement Team in charge of this place would not suddenly send someone to investigate them. If it is a newcomer who has just joined the team and does not understand the rules, they can also teach each other a lesson. However, it would be a little troublesome if someone from the 15-20 law enforcement team came, but if the other party dared to come alone, they could only ask him to "stay", but the follow-up matters might not be easy to deal with.

But if the other party is just an ordinary blood race, there is no need to worry.

Chi Yan saw that the executioner and the many vampires below showed a relieved expression. He was a little anxious, although Ye Yingzhi seemed to be very confident now, but he knew the details of his vampire hunter friend and knew that he was only good at pretending. If you are besieged by this group of blood clans, let alone save yourself, I am afraid he will have to be planted here too.

Those vampires were obviously very afraid of the law enforcement team. Ye Yingzhi might have given them some advantages by pretending to be. It's already such an urgent situation, why is Ye Yingzhi so honest? Thinking about it carefully, Ye Yingzhi had never lied to him except for his big talk, and even what he thought was bragging in the past might be true. At this time, he didn't know whether to applaud or sigh for such a beautiful quality of the other party.

In a short while, the vampires below became obviously restless, and they collectively voiced their dissatisfaction with the vampire who sneaked in without authorization to interfere with the sacrifice, and asked the executioner on the stage to punish him immediately.

A blood clan pointed at Chi Yan and shouted at Ye Yingzhi: "This is the sacrifice we caught, why do you want to take him away? Leave him behind! But since you are here, you should also stay! "

Legend has it that the blood sacrifice of the blood race will have better results. It's just that they have been restrained for many years, and they dare not start again within the blood clan. Otherwise, if it really caught the attention of the high-level blood clan, it would not be fun to send a whole team of law enforcement teams to investigate.

Chi Yan followed the voice and looked at it. He had an impression of the vampire who spoke out. He was one of the four vampires who caught them.

Ye Yingzhi tilted his head, supported Chi Yan to stand beside Bai Qiu, lowered his head and whispered in his ear, patted his back, and strode forward alone.

He walked in front of the blood clan, looked down at him condescendingly, and smiled lightly: "You want to stop me from taking him away? Let's do it according to tradition."

He hooked the corner of his mouth upwards, but his dark eyes were calm, and he couldn't see the bottom: "Blood Agreement."

Chi Yan heard Ye Yingzhi's words and didn't know why, so she just took the opportunity to sneak over to untie Bai Qiu's hand, crouched down and gently patted her face to help her regain consciousness. After Bai Qiu opened his eyes, he immediately straightened up and looked at Ye Yingzhi worriedly, his eyes never taking his eyes off the black figure. After Bai Qiu regained consciousness, he pulled his shirt and he didn't respond.

The lowly vampires were in an uproar when they heard the word. In the past, if two vampires caught the same prey at the same time, the blood pact was used to determine the ownership of the prey. In a duel between the two sides, the winning side has the ownership of the prey. But with the development of the times, gradually no blood race will fight for their prey anymore, and the ancient blood agreement will gradually no longer be mentioned.

Under the watchful eyes of the public, he was so provoked by an outsider. The vampire's fangs were exposed, he lifted the mask and threw it on the ground, jumped up, and jumped onto the platform. This shows that he voluntarily accepted the blood pact.

There was a frantic drum noise and cheers, and even cheers and shouts. These vampires have no doubts that the infiltrating vampire will eventually leave his blood and his life behind and become the twelfth sacrifice tonight, a vampire sacrifice they haven't tried for a long time. Before that, they don't mind watching some good dramas to vent their frenzied and restless emotions.

Ye Yingzhi unhurriedly took out a white silk glove from his pocket and put it on, slightly sideways dodging the attack of the vampire. The hem of the black coat rose with his movements, and when it fell again, his left hand had already grabbed the vampire's throat, lifting him off the ground.

Everything just happened in an instant.

His face was still very calm, with a calm expression, looking at the vampire in front of him was like looking at a dead thing that was all too common. He wasn't even looking at him, his eyes had already gone beyond the person in his hand to other places.

The vampires below fell silent, looking up at the scene in front of them. Already, more and more vampires feel wrong.

The vampire on the stage could feel the hand tightening around his neck, as if he was about to snap his throat in the next second. Even the blood family, the separation of the head and neck will "die", then it will be the second and complete death.

He struggled to squeeze a few breaths out of his throat: "Killing a relative... is a capital crime."

"Really?" Ye Yingzhi tilted his head to the left, smiled, and said casually, "But no one told me when I killed Drake."

Their voices were so small that, as ordinary people, Chi Yan, who was standing on the edge of the platform and guarding Bai Qiu, couldn't hear them at all.

But all the vampires present heard it. The name "Drake" exploded above them like a thunderbolt. Drake itself is already in the past tense, but a vampire who has been dead for thousands of years and turned to dust, but his name often reminds people of that.

His Royal Highness.

It is said that his father was a former king of a certain country, and his mother was only one of the king's mistresses, favored only for her beautiful and rare oriental appearance. He was the eldest son, and was seen as an ominous sign upon birth, and was presumed not to live long. Because his heartbeat was slow, weak, and sometimes imperceptible, and as he got older, his heart rate and pulse became weaker. What's even more bizarre is that normal food means nothing to him, and he can only survive by drinking the blood of animals.

The king did not like this wicked illegitimate son, and he was confined to a castle with his mother shortly after his birth. And his mother died early when he was young.

As he grew up, his usual actions were the same as those of ordinary people, but his heartbeat gradually became stagnant day by day. Prince Drake, the most powerful blood race in Europe at that time, heard about his deeds and had a premonition that when he died, he would naturally transform into a vampire—a pure-blooded first-generation blood race with the most pure strength, so he hoped that he would be killed before he died. The first embrace, transforming him into his own descendant.

He thought that he would have a powerful and handsome descendant, but the result was beyond everyone's expectations. The most powerful Prince Drake in his heyday had not been able to implement his first embrace plan, Fang sneaked into the castle and was killed by the owner of the castle, who was still an ordinary human. After killing Prince Drake again, the owner of the castle really stopped breathing and completely transformed into a vampire. As the winner, he undisputedly occupied the title, status and territory of Prince Drake in the blood family.

So until later, when Prince Aimer was mentioned, the vampire couldn't help but think of the past when he hunted and killed one of the most powerful vampire princes when he was still a human, and then kept silent.

But no one dared to mention the commandment of "killing relatives" to him. What's more, he wasn't a vampire when he killed Drake.

The situation is easier to deal with now. As one of the blood princes, he naturally has the power to dispose of these low-level blood races at will—including depriving them of their "life".

"You...you...why..." The vampire who was strangled by his throat had unconsciously used his honorific title, his eyes were full of fear, and his eyes turned to the hand that was strangling him. The left hand, wearing a white silk glove, was slender and strong, with a stretch on the ring finger, where a ring was clearly worn.

Ye Yingzhi had been wrapping his left hand around Chi Yan's waist before, that hand was hidden in the dark, and under the cover of his sleeve, none of the restless vampires at the scene noticed the ring on his hand.

The eyes of other blood races also converged on that hand at this time. The white gloves tightly held the ring below, and even the patterns on the ring could be vaguely seen through the silk surface - thorns growing wantonly, and delicate roses tightly wrapped by thorns.

The powerful aura and coercion spread from the center of the field to the surroundings, and the identity of the person who came here no longer needs to be confirmed.

Ye Yingyi tightened his fingers a little, but looked away with a soft and tangled gaze: "...Didn't he already tell you, he's my lover..."

"No," he casually threw the vampire with his breath away, took off his gloves, lowered his eyes slightly, raised the corners of his mouth with a smile, and murmured in a low voice, "he is my lover. It is my princess, I the king."
