Chapter Twelve

"Can't Father King see me with his eyes?"
"His attention is focused on me, he dares not look at you too much. Let's go into the conference room. Forst Lord will be here soon." Turning around, I led Lilith upstairs. In the corner of my eye, I locked eyes with Perra, feeling a sense of hostility and hatred. This kind of assassinating gaze won't work. If it weren't for me standing in these two positions today, Perra would have already been taken away.
"Lilith, go upstairs first. I'll come down later."
"It's the girl from the plane. Are you going to find her?"
"She came to kill the Demon Dragon!"
Lilith grabbed my arm and gave me a look that said: Then why are you going?
"But she won't kill Qin Yang. I'll go appease her. If she makes a move, any one of the Ten Demon Kings is more than enough to handle her."
I ran into an empty room, took off my formal coat and mask. The room was pitch black, so I infused a bit of Dark Magic, blending into the darkness of the room. I jumped out of the window unnoticed and entered the courtyard. But I saw another person - Situ Liyao.
Damn it, these two women are wherever they go, can't they be less coincidental?
"Hmm! Situ Shan is sick. He really trusts you to send a little girl like you." Forst Lord stood in an incredibly dark corner, his face unseen, but it was still his cold aura. One didn't need eyes to know it was him.
"These are the files of the four Dukes of our Empire." Situ Liyao held the paper that Situ Nanfu gave her. The information on this paper was unimaginable, with piles of information on the four Dukes.
"Qin Yang, everything related to cleansing the disloyal people of the Qin and Situ families is related to him. According to Situ Shan's request, assassinating Zilie Xiong and him both ended in failure. Even without you making the request, he still needs to be dealt with." Forst Lord slowly expressed his thoughts word by word.
"Young lady! You are the reason why they were left in the Demon Realm on that plane." Forst Lord lightly brushed Situ Liyao's cheek with his finger. "Situ Shan promised to make you his daughter-in-law."
"But the task is not yet completed, and our promise has not been fulfilled." Situ Nanfu interjected into the conversation. Faced with the Demon King, how much capability can a little girl have?
"..........." Forst Lord's face couldn't be seen, but he didn't say anything either. Bargaining with Forst Lord, Situ Nanfu was at the end of her life.
"Miss Situ!" Upon hearing my call, the layer of ice sand on Forst Lord's hand instantly disappeared, and then he snorted and left through the darkness. I thought that by gritting my teeth and calling out, I would face Forst Lord, but since Duke Situ had made such a promise, Situ Liyao shouldn't be the long-term successor.
"Who is that guy, so mysterious!"
"Qin Yang, you're not dead!"
"Situ Nanfu, don't curse me. I just came to say hello and ask for help to locate the Demon Dragon. I'm very curious!" I quickly left after a brief statement. Helping someone with certain things doesn't necessarily mean they will be grateful. It's also boring to stay.
I quickly walked back to the hall, surrounded by a group of young male demons, bringing Perra out.
"What are you doing?" I pushed Perra against the wall and looked around to make sure no one was paying attention to us.
"You should know without me having to say it. The vampire's downfall up until now has all been because of him!"
"After all this time, don't let the memories in your blood blind you... we need the blood of the Demon Dragon."
"What do you mean?"
"You've tasted my blood before, so the blood of the Demon Dragon is the same. You don't need to rely on blood for sustenance anymore."
"If we don't drink blood, how can we call ourselves vampires? Without blood, we are no longer noble! Do you understand?"
"You're wrong! Blood is still the key to activating your powers. The vampire hunters and The Demon Realm have no reason to capture you. Can't you kill before it's too late?"
"I don't think that's reliable! Why should we trust his blood?"
"I have a plan. You go first! The one on the left is from the Fallen Angel legion, and the second floor is filled with demons. Neither you nor I can get out. Take my blood and give it to Zhao Yuansong and the others. Only drink it when necessary. I'll take care of things from here. The exit is over there."
Perra held a small bottle of blood and took a few steps before stopping, facing away from me. "Why are you nervous?"
"I'm not nervous, oh... I'm just worried about you." I was indeed nervous. The longer Perra stayed here, the more she might discover.
"I haven't asked you yet. Since you're not here to kill the Demon Dragon, why did you come?"
"I... our Qin family was invited by the Fist Demon King. Since you've already infiltrated, it shouldn't be difficult for me."
"Just had a brief eye contact with the Demon Dragon."
"So... what does that matter?" Perra and I had eye contact before. What could it possibly mean?
"He recognized me!"
"That's impossible!"
"I'm not blind. No hostility, no sense of unfamiliarity, just a familiar gaze!"
"Haha! He doesn't know your intentions. There's no reason for him to be hostile towards you!" Why was Perra saying this? She seemed to be the one who was filled with hostility earlier.
"Just like you!" Perra clenched her teeth and her voice seemed to leak through the cracks, sounding muffled.
"What do you mean?"
"That gaze is just like yours!" Perra suddenly announced loudly.
"You're thinking too much!"
"I've tasted your blood. Your blood makes me only want to drink yours. But just now, I wanted to drink his blood. When you put on the mask, you look exactly like him. Are you the Demon Dragon, Qin Yang?" Perra turned around and placed the bottle of blood between us, her expression inexplicably excited.
"I..."
"But you're using the Light Magic of the church, radiating with the light of righteousness. Now, there's definitely a dark aura around you. Qin Yang, you're so strange. But more importantly, everything points to you being the Demon Dragon! I won't say that I understand you, but ever since I drank your blood, you've become familiar to me. You can't hide from me." Perra angrily smashed the bottle, using all her strength to try to see me clearly.
"I... I... I can't explain it to you right now!"
"That's it, then!" Perra's sharp teeth were exposed. In an instant, I reacted, covering her mouth and pushing her against the wall to prevent her from moving. Perra was not just any other vampire. She was the Red-eyed King. My red eyes might not be able to quickly convince her, but more importantly... Perra had been discovered.
Marshal Kairoth, the Fallen Angel, appeared in the aisle for the first time, with his sharp eyes.
However, when he stood in the aisle, that sense of danger was gone, and there were only him and a group of intimate men and women in the aisle.
"Kid, you're quite good at eating, hey! I'm asking if you've seen any suspicious people pass by!" Kairoth asked me disdainfully.
I didn't answer, I just pointed to the end of the aisle.
The other Fallen Angels from different legions quickly arrived, "Marshal! Is it a vampire?"
"I don't know, you guys stay outside and guard, I'll go check it out."
After the Fallen Angel legions left, I covered Perra's mouth and left her captivating lips, out of breath. It was suffocating! Perra was the same, and her face under the heavy makeup turned even redder. When Kairoth said I'm good at eating, of course, he was referring to Perra's beauty.
"Perra...you don't have to...say anything...I...am the Holy Dragon!"
