Chapter 195 The first drop of blood
No one knew exactly what Ashburn had talked with the elder.

All the soldiers in Keller saw the great elder come out of the conference hall, walking hurriedly, with an expression of impatience and joy on his face, as if he had learned some great news.It must not be a trivial matter to make the always calm and prudent Great Elder look so happy. For a while, his imagination was running wild, but no one could accurately guess the cause of the incident.

In the early morning of the next day, the Council of Elders conveyed invitations to dinner parties to all the clans of the Blood Race, and several expensive letter bats carried the message from the Council of Elders and flew to every inch of the land of the Blood Race.The envelope with a black bottom, a gold-edged seal, and a seal with red ink pad—this is the highest-level notice from the Presbyterian Church, and this is the first time that the comfortable blood race has received such a high-level letter after the "Golden Age" has passed.

What exactly happened that made the Council of Elders attach so much importance to it, that they even spared no effort to gather all the blood clans in such an urgent time.Compared with the territory occupied by human beings, the territory occupied by the vampires is indeed much smaller.But to rush from the easternmost point to the westernmost point, even if the vampires are running faster than ordinary people, it will take a long time.The clans that were far away even packed up their simple luggage and set off as soon as they received the letter.

"Tell me, what happened?"

"I don't know. The people present are probably confused."

The smoky red sun was slowly slanting westward from the horizon, and the time for the dinner party was getting closer and closer. Representatives of various blood clans arrived one after another.The crowd gathered together, chatted with each other, and sorted out their clothes rather embarrassedly.

"I reckon that tonight's dinner party announcement has something to do with Princess Xicilia. After all, Grand Duke Fan Zhuo disappeared without any reason. He searched everywhere and couldn't find him. Although the brand stone he placed in the ancestral temple has not been extinguished, But everyone can't delay the inheritance of the entire blood family just because of him."

"I also think that this is the only thing that is possible after much deliberation."

"Then tell me, if we choose a fiancé for Princess Cecilia again, who will be the next lucky one?"

"Ham, don't say it, I really hope that the lucky one is myself. Even if Xicilia's identity is not the only pure-blooded princess, because of her outstanding appearance, I still want to marry her back home."

"You're not the only one who has this idea. I bet the only one who doesn't have this idea is that idiot Esvia."

"Hahaha, you always see blood when you speak."

Several well-dressed gentlemen stood together, looked at each other, and laughed in unison.

The man with the arrogant burgundy hair color is simply an outlier among all the people.He has never participated in any entertainment-themed gatherings. For so many years, he has not even had a female companion by his side. This is simply impossible for a blood race who is not open in love and enjoys pleasure.He was always alone, with a feeling of staying out of it, like an outsider who had seen everything through, pitying and contemptuous of them.

This is almost stabbing a hornet's nest, and the dissatisfaction of the people with him is growing day by day, reaching a critical point.

Several nobles looked at each other, and holding red wine glasses, they walked slowly to Esvia who was sitting on the sofa by the window, and surrounded him.

The light in front of him was blocked, Esvia frowned slightly, crossed his legs, and rested his arms casually on the back of the sofa, as if he didn't notice the stagnant aura among the crowd, he blew A strand of hair drooping in front of his forehead, he smiled playfully: "Why, are you here to buy me a drink today?"

They sneered, and moved the goblets in their hands to the top of Esvia's head, making a gesture to pour the red wine liquid in the cups on his head.

Aisvia didn't even bat an eyelid, and even whistled loudly: "You fall."

It's better to pour a little more, dye the white shirt in his suit red, and he has enough reasons to leave the banquet. Instead of staying with this group of people, he would rather stay in the attic on the highest part of the castle, push away Open the window to enjoy the stars all over the night sky—tonight’s sky is rare and clear, and the distance between the sky seems to be a little closer, as if you can touch it with your hand.

The face of the gentleman holding the wine glass was a bit stiff. To be honest, he just came out to show off and wanted to give this kid Esvia a badass. He never thought about what to do, just click it. .But who would have thought that this kid would play cards so unreasonably.This is a banquet held by the Elder Hall in person. Those who dare to make trouble at this banquet have not yet been born as blood races.

"Fall down, down!"

The few people next to them didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement.The man's face was ashen, and he couldn't get off the tiger.Fall it, dare not, don't fall, and lose face again, I can only secretly hate myself for making such a limelight.

When the last ray of light disappeared from the land of the blood clan, the grand banquet finally kicked off.Someone stood on the high platform and lightly tapped the wall of the goblet with a silver fork in his hand. The crisp knocking sound echoed in every corner of the banquet hall.Everyone looked back to God.

The man breathed a sigh of relief, retracted his hands that were frozen in the air, and said a harsh word to Esvia in a low voice: "You boy, wait for me, today you let me not get off the stage, after the banquet I will I will never let you go!"

"whatever".Esvia shrugged indifferently, and stood up with the crowd. He didn't know what to announce, anyway, it sounded the same to him, but it was just those few things, he still cared more about going out Time can let him admire the stars and the moon.

"Hey, are you okay?" Suddenly someone stood behind him and poked his shoulder.

Asvia turned around, and unexpectedly bumped into a pair of light green eyes, which were brighter than the stars in the sky.He was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses immediately, raised the corners of his mouth slantingly, curled his slender four fingers, and tapped on her smooth forehead: "Just now you have been hiding and quietly watching my jokes?"

Xicilia was in pain, covered her forehead, took a big step back, and opened a safe distance from him, causing disgust: "Who wants to talk to you?"

If I had known earlier, I would not have rescued him.

From a long distance away, she saw a group of people surrounding him, as if they were trying to harm him, the atmosphere was tense and ready to explode.In desperation, he couldn't think of any good way, so he simply asked Qi Zhi who was beside him to communicate with the elders directly, so that the banquet could start earlier.
