Chapter 69: A Turn of Heart
Soon, Mei Chuanqiong also carried Hank over, and upon seeing Mei Chuanqiong, both Davis and Mark, the Vampire Counts, were even more astonished. Looking at Mei Chuanqiong, Davis exclaimed, "You... you all! I understand now; you came to save him!"
"Of course, and now I plan to save you as well. As you can see, these servants are so audacious; clearly, your fate is quite evident!" Xiao Yefeng said, glancing at the third water prison where a servant still held onto the sharp peaks of Countess Lily without letting go.
Countess Lily was evidently an experienced player in this game. Unconcerned about her predicament, she looked at Xiao Yefeng and said, "You were able to bring Ilyana to rescue him; you are quite powerful!"
"Of course!" Xiao Yefeng replied with a smile.
As they conversed, Xiao Yefeng used the Yin-Yang Sword to free everyone from their restraints. Unsurprisingly, the moment these vampire nobles regained their freedom, the servants who had tormented them faced dire consequences!
Sharp fangs pierced the throats of these servants, their teeth sinking into the arteries of their victims. Blood flowed along these fangs, transforming into Blood Energy that replenished the strength of the vampires. Watching this scene, Xiao Yefeng shrugged it off; after all, those who died were members of the Ferrad Family, and those doing the killing were also from the Ferrad Family. As long as these individuals were not from Huaxia, Xiao Yefeng didn’t care about it. After all, he needed these people to regain their strength.
Vampires truly thrived on blood. With the sound of lifeless bodies hitting the ground echoing around them, these elegantly dressed yet utterly disheveled blood nobles fell around Xiao Yefeng. Not all servants collapsed lifelessly after losing blood; some were torn to shreds, including Countess Lily and that Vampire Count who had been humiliated.
"Thank you for saving us!" all the vampires bowed deeply to Xiao Yefeng. In fact, Xiao Yefeng should feel fortunate; this was a groundbreaking moment for vampires to show such respect to an Easterner. Among them was also the dim-witted princess Ilyana.
"No need for such formality. My name is Xiao Yefeng. However, our troubles are not over yet. I assume you have all experienced Abel's power firsthand! He and his men are inside the castle. Without further ado, let’s charge in!" Xiao Yefeng declared.
"No! It’s not just that, Mr. Xiao! We must eliminate the traitors; Sister Fuluna will take over the Ferrad Family!" Mark stepped forward.
At this moment, Xiao Yefeng looked at Mei Chuanqiong and saw that her eyes were filled with fighting spirit. Clearly, she was resolute about her beloved. Xiao Yefeng helplessly nodded; these people truly did not know their limits. Abel's strength had undoubtedly been enhanced by the God of Sorcery. It wasn’t that he looked down on Mark as a high-ranking vampire count; rather, according to vampire hierarchy standards, Abel's current strength was at least that of a Marquis—an existence at Peak Level!
However, as they say: "Send Buddha to the West." At this moment, Xiao Yefeng also wanted to learn from Abel whether the God of Sorcery could always arrive in time to intervene when those being transformed met their demise!
Facing the God of Sorcery, Xiao Yefeng felt utterly powerless. However, during the incident with the Black Witch, it was clear that the God of Sorcery could not act against him either. Thus, Xiao Yefeng's true enemies remained the Master of the Perfect World and those who had been manipulated by the God of Sorcery to serve the Master.
Without further ado, Xiao Yefeng approached the still-breathing Hank. He reached out and touched Hank's forehead, instantly channeling Spirit into his soul. Hank was just an ordinary person, and his soul's defenses were swiftly torn apart by Xiao Yefeng. A series of secret codes appeared before him, including the seventh code.
After waiting for the vampires and Mei Chuanqiong to finish their adjustments, Xiao Yefeng held Hank's lifeless body and made his way to the entrance. He knocked on the door with a specific sequence: four long knocks, two short ones, five long ones, and three medium ones. As expected, Hawkins opened the door and glanced at him, saying, "Why did it take so long? What are you doing so close? The Master is getting impatient; we need to hurry—"
As he rambled on while opening the door, his words were abruptly cut off when a powerful hand crushed his throat. The body was tossed aside as Xiao Yefeng commanded, "Let's go!"
Thirteen vampires plus Ilyana made fourteen in total, along with Xiao Yefeng and Mei Chuanqiong, forming a group of sixteen that rushed out of the dungeon passage. However, they were immediately confronted by two fully armed servants.
Upon hearing the unusual sounds, the servants raised their guns and aimed down the passage. Yet they stood no chance against the furious vampires; in an instant, two Viscount-level vampires shattered their spines.
Despite their demise, these two had shown loyalty; as they died, alarms blared throughout the area. Instantly, Xiao Yefeng sensed multiple presences locking onto their location. Most critically, a blood blade descended from above at an angle.
Seeing the Blood Energy coalescing into a blood blade approaching them, a High-ranking Vampire Viscount attempted to block it. However, Grain of Light could not compete with Bright Moon; the Viscount's blood blade was shattered and swept toward Ilyana behind Xiao Yefeng. Ilyana was merely a powerful cripple at this moment and remained hidden behind Xiao Yefeng, too frightened to move.
Shaking his head, Xiao Yefeng wielded his sword and unleashed a wave of sword energy that broke through the blood blade. The Golden Cyan sword energy collided with the crimson blade, creating a shockwave. Meanwhile, Abel's vampires surged forth toward them as Xiao Yefeng's group prepared to respond. The clash between vampires erupted into chaos, including Mei Chuanqiong’s martial arts skills from Huaxia.
Ilyana remained protected by Mark Davis and Lily in a defensive formation. Although she could not assist due to her condition, she managed to evade erratic Blood Energy attacks.
At that moment, Abel hovered above with his Golden Blood Bat, observing the battlefield below. Upon spotting Ilyana, he charged toward her but forgot who had previously blocked his blood blade attack. As Abel broke through the trio’s defenses to grab Ilyana, a golden longsword intercepted his hand. Just as Abel attempted to break it, the longsword spun like a drill.
With a clang! The sword deflected Abel's nails away. At that moment, Abel finally noticed Xiao Yefeng standing still without any sign of life or reaction. Memories of past humiliations flooded back to him as he faced his nemesis again; without hesitation, he condensed Blood Energy into a Western Sword aimed directly at Xiao Yefeng's forehead.
However, Xiao Yefeng was no longer the same person he once was. While Abel could form a sword from Blood Energy, Xiao Yefeng had completely mastered Sword Control Technique. The Yin-Yang Sword danced around him so swiftly that Abel couldn't even approach. Meanwhile, fierce battles raged among the other vampires as they fought for survival.
With a sharp sound, the Hospital Vampire Count under Abel was directly torn apart by Davis, losing a section of his arm. In that instant, the one-armed Vampire Count was swiftly grabbed by Mark, who crushed his throat, ending his life in an instant. The Blood Energy from the Vampire Count was absorbed by Mark and Davis. Not far away, a High-ranking Vampire Viscount saved by Xiao Yefeng was also killed, his Blood Energy completely drained.
These vampires, originally of the same lineage, had even shared meals and drinks together before this conflict erupted. The Vampire Count that Mark and Davis had just slain was a peer of theirs; in fact, Davis and this Count were half-brothers. Yet, the unpredictability of fate had turned them against each other.
When it came to betrayal, there was no hesitation or mercy. At this moment, apart from Ilyana, all the other vampires were drenched in blood—both their own and that of their enemies. Although Xiao Yefeng's side had fewer vampires, the number of Vampire Counts made a significant difference. With Abel on their side, who had been enhanced by the God of Sorcery, they could manipulate Blood Energy more effectively despite their lower cultivation levels. The battlefield was chaotic, with no clear advantage for either side.
A Viscount could not withstand a Count alone; thus, five were needed to hold him back. This was the situation on the ground. Meanwhile, Ilyana found herself at a loss; she could only evade attacks and had no means to counterattack. If only they had one more Blood Count on their side, their combat strength would be vastly different!
Above them, the battle between Xiao Yefeng and Abel raged fiercely. However, the power Abel wielded was not something he had earned through his own efforts; despite each attack being incredibly powerful, his consistency was lacking. The Yin-Yang Sword shattered Abel's blood sword four times in succession before he could no longer contain himself.
"Bring me the sword!" Abel commanded as Alex stood motionless. Like a machine, Alex threw the two golden Western swords embedded with blood-red gems into the air before collapsing to the ground. Through the Observer's Eye, Xiao Yefeng saw that at the moment Alex released the swords, his soul essence attached itself to them.
This was Xiao Yefeng's first encounter with such humanoid weapons created by the God of Sorcery. The previous Divine Blade had been formed in Soul Space where spirit transformed into blade; this time it was purely a humanized weapon.
"Indeed, it is a method of the God of Sorcery. Abel, you would sacrifice such a loyal servant?" Xiao Yefeng exclaimed angrily.
At that moment, with Twin Swords in hand and two Blood Roses appearing before him after a firm grip, Abel replied, "Loyal servant? At this moment, he is truly devoted to me!"
Seeing Abel's demeanor filled Xiao Yefeng with an indescribable hatred. Although he only had a fleeting connection with Alex, he respected this loyal servant's character deeply. Witnessing Abel sacrifice Alex for power ignited a fury within him; his teeth clenched in rage as the Yin-Yang Sword shimmered brightly. Perhaps it sensed Xiao Yefeng's anger or mourned for its fellow weapons—the two Western swords now lost to betrayal!
