Naturally, as soon as he stepped out the door, he felt a barrage of gazes upon him.

Examining, suspicious, all sorts of things, without any concealment.

Shi Chen ignored him and strolled away from the research institute, heading towards the apartment.

Compared to these insignificant outsiders, Shi Chen was more concerned about Nangong Nayue, who was waiting for him to come home. Perhaps he would even have the chance to pat her head.

There are only two kinds of head pats: zero times or countless times. You won't understand how addictive they are until you've experienced it yourself.

Compared to a head pat, these people are nothing to him. Now, he doesn't need to worry about anyone causing trouble.

Before he had power, although he was not afraid of danger, he did not attract attention. Now that he has attracted attention, he can also intimidate his opponents.

Shi Chen's biggest fear is trouble. Fortunately, he is not the future Fourth True Ancestor who can be bullied by anyone. If anyone dares to come, he can take the opportunity to establish his authority.

Along the way, no one took the initiative to approach him. Perhaps they were still observing him, perhaps they were still unsure, or perhaps they were afraid.

After all, Shichen has been releasing his True Ancestor aura all along, and no one in this world is foolish enough to casually come into contact with a True Ancestor.

Shi Chen wasn't deliberately showing off or releasing his aura; he just didn't want those people to cause trouble by investigating him openly or secretly. If they were smart, they would just come to see him directly.

Back at the apartment, Shi Chen had just stepped inside when a fan was thrown at him, which he caught.

"Nayue-chan, what are you doing?" Shichen looked at Nangong Nayue, who was sitting on the sofa.

She was still sitting there nonchalantly, not even looking at him, as if it were none of her business.

"I don't know, maybe the fan has its own ideas."

"...Stop it, is it really necessary to hold a grudge like this?" Shi Chen changed his shoes and walked towards her.

"Hmph!" Nangong Nayue then turned her head to look at him and admitted, "I'm just trying to teach you a lesson so you won't continue to be disrespectful and unrepentant."

"Hmph~" Shi Chen chuckled, came up behind her, and reached out to rub her head without hesitation.

"Have you forgotten? We're at home now, so you're not my sister anymore."

"..."

"Is everything alright?" Shi Chen knew when to stop, withdrew his hand, and handed the fan to her.

“You bastard…” Nangong Nayue took back the fan and glared at him.

Shi Chen greeted him with a smile and asked, "Would you like some black tea?"

"...What do you think?"

"I'll make it for you right away."

"I washed my hands while I was at it."

"know."

"Let's cook dinner while we're at it."

"well."

Shi Chen happily agreed. He was in a good mood today, so to celebrate, he decided to cook for himself.

Nangong Nayue watched as Shichen entered the kitchen, then looked away, remained quiet for a moment, and raised her hand to press her head.

He tilted his head, his eyes filled with confusion.

What's so interesting about touching this?

After dinner, Shichen cleaned up the dishes and prepared to go back to his room, but suddenly remembered that there was still someone quietly in the house.

He arrived at Nina's room door, and without knocking, pushed the door open and entered.

Nina's room was empty, with only a bed and a desk, and a computer on the desk.

At this moment, Nina, dressed in a white swimsuit, was floating above the keyboard, arching her back and sticking out her small, perky buttocks, intently staring at the computer screen, which was full of text.

Shi Chen walked over, glanced at it, and found that it was all historical data.

Nina has been studying history for several days now. She's so diligent. If she were studying, she'd be unbeatable.

Wait, why would he think of learning this stuff?

"Master, what brings you here?" The sudden appearance of a shadow on the screen brought Nina back to her senses.

"I came to see you. Why do you stay in your room all the time?" Shi Chen asked.

"I need to understand this era, otherwise I'll become an old relic."

“An old relic…and we don’t need all this history.” Shi Chen smirked.

He always felt that Nina wasn't just browsing information, but might also be surfing the internet.

"It's still useful; it will prevent me from making mistakes when I'm out in the future."

"That's true... but I still need to come out occasionally, otherwise I'll forget about you."

"Master is so mean!" Nina puffed out her cheeks, huffing and puffing, exuding a youthful charm.

What's going on? Where did this girlishness come from?

"It's not like you haven't made a single move," Shi Chen retorted.

"Fine, I'll occasionally come out so that Master will remember me." Nina pouted and rolled her eyes at Shichen.

"..."

Is this really an expression a woman who is two or three hundred years old could make?

Shi Chen couldn't stand it anymore and decisively left Nina's room.

"What's wrong?" Nangong Nayue, who was still drinking red tea in the living room, asked curiously when she saw him come out in a panic.

"nothing......"

"Say it!"

"Uh... it's just that Nina might be a bit influenced by the internet."

"That's it?" Nangong Nayue shook her head and continued drinking her black tea.

"Don't ignore it, it's really awkward."

"What does this have to do with me? She belongs to you, not me."

"Natsuki-chan, have you forgotten? Nina also calls you master."

"..."

"In short, you need to be careful, so you don't get scared when the time comes."

"I'm not you."

"You're so stubborn, Yue-chan."

"Shut up!"

"Alright, alright, I'm going back to my room. Don't be surprised if there's any noise later."

"A commotion?" Nangong Nayue frowned and warned, "Don't you dare destroy the house later."

"No, no, I was just researching power."

"Ok?"

"I'm going back to my room." Shi Chen didn't explain, deliberately keeping her in suspense, and then went back to his own room.

"..."

Shichen entered his room, closed the door, went to the bed, sat cross-legged, and began to sense his body.

The magic permeated his body, mingling with his blood, vast and boundless, seemingly endless and inexhaustible.

The sage's blood and the magic of the fourth progenitor, combined with her years and time, now make her no less powerful than the other three progenitors.

But they lacked the power to counter them—familiars.

Shi Chen searched for the familiar of the Fourth Ancestor that he had devoured, but he searched his entire body and could not find any trace of the familiar.

The Fourth Ancestor's twelfth familiar—the Demoness Azure Ice—has disappeared!

impossible!

The time was clearly remembered; it had devoured the consciousness, magic power, and familiars of the Fourth True Ancestor!

Where did it go?

His consciousness sank into his mind, and he returned to that blank world. As soon as he landed, he asked, "Where are the familiars I devoured?"

If I can't find the reason myself, then it can only be that "she" is behind it.

"That's not a familiar you should be controlling," she replied.

"What do you mean?"

[You have your own familiars, which are sealed within fragments of divine essence.]

"My own..." Shi Chen was already used to this, and he asked directly, "Why can't I sense it?"

"That's the power of vampires. To break the seal and gain their approval, it's only natural to use the vampire methods."

"The vampire's way..." Shi Chen twitched the corner of his mouth.

He naturally understood what "she" meant; that is, he needed to draw the blood of pure young girls to gain their approval.

This really put him in a difficult position.

He wasn't so averse to vampires, but his past worldview made him feel strangely awkward.

Moreover, the first time is always nerve-wracking, and he had never thought about this issue before.

The key issue is that in this world, he has another difficult problem: there are no suitable young girls for him to drink blood from!

Everyone I know is a little girl; vampires can't, and shouldn't be.

One of the two in the house is a fake, and the other isn't even human, so they definitely can't gain their approval.

The only suitable woman is Misaki Sasaki, but Tokimitsu has no feelings for her and wouldn't ruin her for the sake of power.

It seems there's no way to deal with this for the time being.
