Qi Tian looked at his comrade's fierce profile and nodded as if it was a matter of course.
"Defeat the vampires is unquestionable, but how to win beautifully is something we must consider."
"This is our Canine Tribe's first battle across the region. We cannot lose face, and we cannot let the general down."
Hearing the word "general", the red evil ghost's frivolous expression became serious.
Qi Tian paused and began to mention the real reason why he returned from the capital of the Kingdom of Yuga.
"To prevent the vampires from using the True Ancestor's spatial magic to capture us, I have already informed Hyoranmaru and Kentomaru through the magatama. From now on, everyone must act together. We must not allow the vampires to outnumber us."
Upon hearing this, the Red Demon narrowed his eyes, and turquoise demonic energy flowed in his pupils. "Where are those two guys?"
"The Binglan Pill has reached the canyon three hundred miles away." Qi Tian spread out his palms, and his demonic power outlined a simple topographic map in the air.
"Kendomaru is currently destroying a marquis's castle and will be able to reach the gathering point before the moon reaches its zenith."
On the topographic map, there was a flashing red mark where three Asura troops' advance routes intersected.
After making sure that the Red Evil Ghost remembered the location, Qi Tian closed his palms and the demon power map dissipated like broken stars.
"The gathering point is exactly where the miko is. We must restrain our subordinates, especially the mermaids, and not allow them to clash with the miko."
Recalling the instructions given by Douya when he arrived in Jiuzhou, Qi Tian emphasized solemnly, "That was a special order from the general, and the witch's strength is also top-notch in the world."
The Red Evil Ghost's eyes flashed, and he naturally understood Qi Tian's warning.
While nodding, he couldn't help but complain about his general's popularity with women.
"Okay, I've said what I need to say. Your troops can slow down and wait for the Binglan Maru to arrive from the left rear. This will be safer."
Qi Tian flew into the sky as he spoke, "I still have to go to the far right and back to check on Jian Dou Wan, the farthest one, to avoid any accidents."
The red evil ghost stood with his arms folded, watching Qi Tian turn into a stream of light and disappear into the night.
………………
In the throne room of Yujia City, twelve blood crystal chandeliers hung from the twenty-meter-high dome, reflecting spider-web-like dark red light tracks.
The blood vessels solidified in the crystals fluctuated with the light source, casting ever-changing strange patterns on the obsidian bricks on the ground.
As the patterns changed, a topographical map of Kyushu slowly emerged, in which the private lands belonging to the blood clan had changed from being everywhere not long ago to being an isolated city.
The three dazzling blood-red rays and the blue light spots that moved like little snakes were like a slap in the face of the Noble of the Night.
Four high-ranking vampires sat around an obsidian round table, the air filled with a thick smell of blood and suffocating silence.
The Blood Princess Akasha Bradlipa tapped the table with her fingertips, her long pink hair floating slightly in the windless hall, as if being pulled by an invisible murderous intent.
Her voice was as cold as an ice blade scraping across glass—
"We were caught off guard by the Dog Tribe before. Now is the time to strike back."
"The Dog Tribe's Ashura troops are divided into three groups. The True Ancestor's spatial projection magic is enough for us to complete the attack and return within a hundred breaths!"
A low laugh like the grinding of bones could be heard from beneath the Shadow Duke's cloak, and his bony fingers slowly traced a canine demon pattern on the table.
A dim silver light flickered briefly in the air before dissipating.
"Your Highness, you are too impatient." His voice was hoarse like the rubbing of dead leaves. "Our intelligence has been taken away by Qi Tian, and since the Dog Tribe dared to split up their forces, they must have a backup plan."
"coward!"
Akasha suddenly slammed the table and stood up, the blood in the crystal cup splashed out, and a glaring blood flower bloomed on the silver armor of the pale duke.
"Are you going to sit and wait for the three armies to surround and attack the capital?!"
The Pale Duke slowly raised his hand, his knuckles lightly scratching the bloodstains on the armor. His empty eye sockets turned towards Akasha, and as his jaw opened and closed, he spat out words that smelled of decay.
"My army of corpses... still needs time to revive."
His voice was low and slow. "Princess, would you mind explaining...how Qi Tian was able to successfully escape from our encirclement?"
"Before... you were quite dissatisfied with us old guys for wantonly slaughtering humans... Now you are so proactive, are you trying to kill someone with a borrowed knife?"
The Pale Duke's two cold questions caused the royal hall to fall into silence.
Under the hood of the Shadow Duke, he looked at Akasha's suddenly stiff face and chuckled playfully.
The vampires are not soft persimmons that can be easily bullied. The Duke of Shadow had previously captured the lurking Qi Tian and set a trap for him.
In order to ensure that everything goes smoothly, the four duke-level strongmen in the capital city joined forces to kill Qi Tianshi.
Only something went wrong with Akasha, which gave Qi Tian an opportunity to take advantage of and run away.
Although the dukes did not turn against each other on the spot, Akasha did not make any explanation after the incident, which directly caused the Blood Princess's prestige to plummet!
Now that they were pushing for an attack, it was hard not to let the dukes, who had different ideas from Akasha, have the darkest thoughts.
——They are not naive enough to think that the Blood Princess’ “mistake” is just a coincidence.
Akasha took a deep breath, and a barely perceptible fluctuation flashed across her emerald eyes.
Just as she was about to explain, the Scarlet Duke, who had remained silent, suddenly crushed the goblet in his hand.
Blood dripped down the gilded knuckles, forming a thin stream on the table.
"enough!"
His scarlet pupils swept across the crowd, and his voice trembled with suppressed rage.
"If you want to fight, wait until the blood moon is in the sky and activate the blood sacrifice formation."
"Attack now..."
The Crimson Duke's cold gaze fell on Akasha, "This is just playing into the hands of the Canine Tribe!"
"Heh...I see."
Seeing that the Pale Duke's questioning of Akasha was forcefully diverted by the Scarlet Duke who was pursuing Akasha, the Shadow Duke was naturally uneasy, but he did not continue to clarify the conflict.
He didn't trust Arkad and didn't know what Akasha was thinking and doing, but as long as Arkad didn't say anything, Akasha would still be the princess of the blood clan.
Therefore, the Shadow Duke, who was extremely dissatisfied with Akasha, the vampire traitor, and even had a burning murderous intention, would instinctively oppose everything she proposed!
He didn't want to die at the hands of the enemy because of a traitor.
"The Scarlet Duke is absolutely right."
The Shadow Duke's hoarse voice seeped out from the shadows, and his skinny fingers lightly tapped the moving light spots on the blood-marked map.
"But everyone, don't forget... this map can't capture True Ancestor-level beings."
He paused deliberately, letting a chill seep into each word. "That miko Tsuiko, who rivals the True Ancestor... might be waiting for us to fall into her trap right now."
Also aware of this possibility, the Scarlet Duke, who possessed the elegance and handsomeness of a vampire, withdrew his gaze from Akasha.
The pale, slender fingers gracefully brushed across the lips, and the tip of the tongue gently licked the remaining bloody nectar on the palm.
"Since everyone has their own opinions, let's vote by raising our hands according to ancient tradition."
After the words were spoken, the situation was clear. The three dukes supported waiting for the blood moon to rise, while the Blood Princess chose to abstain.
The Pale Duke stared at Akasha indifferently, trying to find something from the face covered by the shadow of bangs.
The Shadow Duke didn't care and leaned back relaxedly on the stone-backed chair behind him.
The armrest was tapped rhythmically by his bony knuckles, making a heart-pounding "tap, tap" sound in the silence.
The Scarlet Duke's crimson eyes swept over the crowd, "Now let's begin the second item of the meeting - the Blood Moon Festival!"
The meeting of the Blood Clan King's Hall was efficient and decisive without any procrastination or delay.
After the meeting, the Pale Duke and the Shadow Duke left hand in hand.
The gilded door of the conference hall slowly closed behind the two dukes.
The Crimson Duke, who had stayed behind on purpose, suddenly broke the silence with an icy voice, "Akasha!"
The Blood Princess, who was about to leave, paused. She slowly turned around and met the Scarlet Duke's eyes burning with anger.
The face that always appeared elegant and calm in front of him now looked a bit hideous and terrifying.
"Akasha, I really want to pry open your head and see what you are thinking inside!"
The merciless scolding made Akasha's eyelashes tremble slightly, and her bloodless lips opened and closed slightly, but in the end she was unable to utter a complete syllable.
Seeing this, the Crimson Duke became even angrier, and there seemed to be a dark flame surging in his scarlet eyes.
He walked to Akasha with a strong sense of oppression in every step, staring at the silent Blood Princess and speaking word by word.
"Once you are a princess of the vampire clan, you will be a vampire clan member for life!"
"Don't think that just because you saved some humans, they will be grateful to you. And don't think that you can shed this vampire skin and become a human being!"
"Akasha, you are a vampire, stop deceiving yourself!"
The air froze for a moment.
Akasha finally raised her eyes slowly, and in her emerald eyes, she could see the barely perceptible trace of regret beneath the Crimson Duke's rage.
"Zhu Ran, you are a good person."
The Scarlet Duke, who received such an answer out of nowhere, was so angry that his face turned red and his whole body trembled.
"Akasha, take care of yourself!"
Amid the loud noise of the gilded door being kicked open, his fleeing figure looked somewhat embarrassed.
The crisp sound of a vase being smashed came from the end of the corridor, startling a group of sleeping night bats.
Akasha walked out of the royal hall silently and slowly came to the French window in the corridor.
Her slender fingers gently pressed against the cold window, her fingertips unconsciously tracing the figures of people gathering in the square.
The night wind brought faint sobbing sounds, mixed with the crisp sound of iron cutting bones.
They were like pigs and sheep to be slaughtered, and were roughly driven into the blood pool in the center of the square by the laughing vampire guards.
Then, he raised his hand and slashed with the knife!
And this number is no less than 300,000!
