Qian Yuyou sat in the main seat with Xunmi in his arms, barely glancing at the people who came in.
Burton's face stiffened as he received no response.
They also noticed that the living room was too quiet, unlike usual.
A question flashed through my mind. I looked around and saw that everyone had their heads down, which made me even more puzzled.
I quickened my pace, walked around the people in front of me, and then noticed that there was someone in my spot.
He was immediately displeased; the throne that belonged to him, a prince, was not a place that just anyone could sit on.
Before she could finish speaking, she saw the man sitting high up.
My legs went weak, and I almost collapsed to the ground.
How did this lunatic get here? When did he wake up? Why didn't anyone tell him?
Damn, if I had to say who he's most afraid of, it would definitely be this guy in front of him.
Even though they were vampires converted at the same time, he was stronger than me.
They also suppressed him in every way, and all the things that should have belonged to him were taken away.
What angered him even more was that after that great battle, he actually broke through and became the Blood Emperor.
No vampire had reached that high position in thousands of years, yet he was so lucky.
He was still stuck in the position of prince, not even close to becoming emperor.
In order not to be surpassed by rising stars like Klose, he had no choice but to take a risk.
But this is all predicated on the premise that Chiyuu doesn't wake up from his slumber!
He knew he didn't have the power to provoke a Blood Emperor, so from the beginning, he never intended to involve him.
But he didn't understand what was going on.
"After a thousand years, how come you don't recognize me?"
For the first time, Qian Yuyou unleashed the oppressive aura of the Blood Emperor in front of Xunmi.
That lofty and solemn aura, even without him doing anything, made one's blood boil.
Burton immediately knelt on one knee, speaking with utmost respect and humility.
"Your Majesty, congratulations on your awakening. Is there anything I can do for you?"
"If you need me to do it, please feel free to give the order."
Regardless of anything else, he had to stabilize this madman.
It seems the hunting party will have to be cancelled, a great opportunity wasted.
It's okay. If it doesn't work the first time, there's always a second time. He'll succeed eventually.
Chiyu Yu casually leaned on the armrest of the throne: "I heard you invited my Empress to participate in the hunt."
"I came along out of curiosity."
"What's wrong? Weren't we supposed to be having a hunting party? Why are you all holed up here?"
"Isn't Burton here to lead us there? I suppose you've prepared everything. I'm eager to see what happens."
His casual words were like hammer blows to Burton's heart, each one sending shivers down his spine.
I dared not try to guess what the other party meant, nor did I dare to show the slightest sign of something being wrong.
"Yes, yes, Your Majesty, I have come to invite you all to the hunting grounds."
"We have prepared the best quality products for you there, and we guarantee you will be satisfied."
Burton's forehead was covered in cold sweat, but he dared not reach out to wipe it away.
Klose watched with glee, feeling incredibly pleased with himself.
He and Burton were already at odds, and if it weren't for the fact that they always ended up getting hurt in fights, he would have given him a good beating long ago.
Seeing the adults completely crushing the competition is just too awesome.
"In that case, let's go. Let me see if what you've prepared suits my taste."
Qian Yuyou put his arm around Xunmi and walked down the steps. When they passed Burton, he stepped directly over the other man's hand.
"Excuse me, I'm blocking your way."
The completely unapology-free tone almost made Burton vomit blood.
However, he also became increasingly wary of Qian Yuyou, constantly thinking of countermeasures.
Damn it, Ye Zhiyi is going to be in trouble.
No, he needs to find a way to notify them that the plan is canceled.
"Come on, Prince Burton, what are you dawdling about?"
"Could it be that he did something bad and is afraid of appearing before the Emperor?"
Close grinned and teased Burton, but didn't forget to keep a close eye on him.
He was absolutely certain that this person had ill intentions, and he wouldn't give him the chance to scheme against them.
Burton chuckled twice when he saw Chiyuu stop because of what Klose had said.
"How could that be? I just wanted to wait for everyone to leave together."
He secretly prayed that Ye Zhiyi would discover the problem and prevent the plan from starting.
Otherwise, he would be in crisis today.
Wait, what did Qian Yuyou just say? His Empress?
He only invited the Rose Queen, and secretly glanced at the woman in front of him being held in the arms of that lunatic.
With her signature silver-white hair, who else could it be but the Rose Queen?
I lowered my head as soon as I saw that snake spirit, and that's why I didn't notice there was someone else on top of it.
Right now, Burton felt like a million alpacas were running wildly in his mind.
Damn it, what's going on? How come he didn't hear a thing?
"This Burton is quite clever," Xunmi said, leaning on Qianyu You's shoulder in a voice only the two of them could hear.
He opened his palm, and a purple crystal slowly appeared.
Various images flashed through it, clear and distinct.
Needless to say, Xunmi already remembered the woman in black wearing the bat mask.
Ye Zhiyi!
Unexpectedly, the traitors of the vampire clan were Prince Burton and Ye Zhiyi.
It's a pity we can't hear their voices, so we can't know their plans in advance.
Qian Yuyou took the memory crystal from Xunmi's hand, gently squeezed it, and it instantly turned into powder, which was blown away by the wind.
This was just something I casually took from Burton; how could he allow another man's things to be on her little wildcat?
Letting her touch him was already his limit, since the wildcat's talent was magic.
I've done something bad without even realizing it.
Xunmi was speechless. She was just curious and wanted to take a look; why was she being so petty?
┑(￣Д￣)┍Her husband is too possessive; she was completely defeated.
"Stay close to me from now on, and don't stray even a step away, understand?"
Ignoring the wildcat's inner grumbling, Chiyu Yutaka gave her a serious warning.
He felt that the woman wearing the bat mask looked somewhat familiar; he should know her.
Xunmi nodded obediently, even though she believed she could protect herself.
But she would never be stubborn so that her loved one could be at ease.
Especially when her lover is clearly worried and wants to protect her, she will not let him down.
As they spoke, the group arrived at a large forest.
A large crowd had already gathered around, men and women alike, their faces undoubtedly showing expressions of fear and panic.
Upon seeing the search party arrive, the timid ones were already terrified and burst into tears.
Some couldn't resist running straight into the forest behind them, completely forgetting what the person who brought them there had said.
There are large carnivores in this forest!
Upon investigation, it became clear that these were the high-quality goods Burton referred to.
The hunting party, however, did not hunt animals, but rather these unfortunate people.
