Chapter 9: The Sharpness of the Noble Bloodline

  "You're really skilled! And your brain isn't bad either!"

  Taking advantage of the dim light, Ye Qi finally saw clearly the person who was speaking - a middle-aged man wearing a tailcoat, with a blood-red handkerchief peeking out from his left chest pocket, golden short hair, emerald green eyes, and a typical noble attire. However, there was a bloody smell on him that only demon hunters could distinguish. Of course, these were not what caught Ye Qi's attention the most, but rather the pair of bat wings behind the middle-aged man.

  "A vampire with a noble title!"

  Ye Qi's eyes widened instantly, this was the second time he saw these bat wings that represented the status and power within the Blood Clan, except for four years ago. Immediately, Ye Qi's mind recalled John's terrifying tales of noble vampires, and subconsciously, his empty hand quickly reached out to touch the test tube containing holy water.

  The Demon-Slaying Sword was held in front of him, and the holy water poured out with the momentum. However, the vampire in front of him instantly disappeared, and the golden holy water all spilled onto the ground.

  "Reacted very quickly!"

  The sound came suddenly from behind and was very close! It was as if it rang in my ear!

  Ye Qi swiftly took two steps forward, then turned around and swung his knife. But before Ye Qi's knife could come down, his wrist was caught by an icy palm, like a vice, the pain in his wrist immediately made Ye Qi's hand loosen - the Demon Hunter Knife fell to the ground.

  Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

  Enduring the intense pain in his right hand, Ye Qi pulled out the M500 and fired at the vampire just inches away. He directly fired five shots, emptying all the bullets from the M500. The massive power of the M500, combined with the demon-slaying bullets that Ye Qi had specially loaded, gave him great confidence to kill the dark creature in front of him, even if it was a noble vampire.

  But a surprising scene appeared, and the vampire in front of him single-handedly waved his hand, and the five exorcism bullets were caught in his hand. Although the positive energy magic symbols carved on the surface of the bullet collided violently with the vampire's palm full of negative energy when they came into contact, causing the vampire's palm holding the exorcism bullet to emit layers of white smoke, but the damage caused by the surface contact was like being bitten by a mosquito for such a creature with extremely strong regenerative power, and it was not worth worrying about.

  Ye Qi naturally understood, and decisively threw the M500 at the vampire's face, then quickly reached for the waistband with holy water again. However, Ye Qi's speed was fast, but the opposing vampire's speed was even faster.

  "Ah!"

  "Tsk tsk, honestly, you're really disappointing me!"

  Before Ye Qi's left hand touched the test tube, his entire arm was directly twisted off by the vampire, forming an exaggerated angle. Ye Qi, whose arm had been brutally twisted off, let out a painful howl at that moment.

  "Hahaha, great! Great! Bring it on! Bring it on! The blood mixed with painful wails is... Ah! Damn insect! How dare you make me receive damage!"

  The vampire was overjoyed to hear Ye Qi's anguished wails, throwing his head back and letting out a maniacal laugh. However, what the vampire didn't expect was that Ye Qi, still wailing in pain, suddenly lowered his head and bit down on the vampire's neck. The triumphant laughter immediately turned into a blood-curdling scream. The vampire quickly grabbed Ye Qi, who had bitten him, but let out another scream as Ye Qi refused to let go, tearing off a chunk of the vampire's flesh along with him.

  This injury was nothing to the vampire, but seeing Ye Qi directly open his mouth and devour his flesh and blood, the vampire's anger ignited, grabbing Ye Qi's other hand with force, instantly crushing his shoulder.

  In Ye Qi's miserable cry, the vampire pinched Ye Qi's neck and slowly lifted him up.

  "Don't worry, I won't let you die just like that! I'll make sure you suffer to the fullest, and then I'll flay your skin off..." The vampire gazed at Ye Qi's face, which was red from being choked, with a seemingly gentle yet actually fierce tone.

  But as for what the vampire said next, Ye Qi, who was already dizzy and confused, could no longer hear it. Because in his mind, another voice had sounded.

  "Human, want to live?"

  The voice was low and powerful, absolutely not the same as the gloomy voice of a middle-aged vampire. But for Ye Qi, who had already lost consciousness at this moment, any sound didn't matter - his oxygen-deprived brain had long made it impossible for him to think.

  "It seems we need to change our way of communication!"

  A low, powerful voice rose again, and Ye Qi, who was struggling, suddenly felt a looseness in his neck, and then a bright light in front of him, he was already in a grand hall with a huge pillar of fire standing upright.

  The sudden change of scene made Ye Qi immediately and carefully observe his surroundings.

  The entire hall's walls and floor were made of dark brown square stones with sides over ten meters long, while the hall itself had no ceiling, a black mist shrouding it. Apart from that, what caught one's attention most was the pillars of fire with diameters of hundreds of meters. Standing in place, Ye Qī could see nine gigantic pillars of fire standing upright in this enormous and spacious hall, from the stone floor all the way into the mist above, as if connecting heaven and earth, making people look up in awe.

  "Human, want to live?"

  This low and powerful voice clearly reached Ye Qi's ears, and Ye Qi immediately looked around to find the person who made the sound. However, except for the fire pillar, there was only a black mist everywhere, and not a single person could be seen. Although he was previously unconscious, Ye Qi still clearly remembered being held in mid-air by the middle-aged vampire and almost suffocating. The sudden change in the scene in front of him made Ye Qi subconsciously think that it was the middle-aged vampire playing tricks again.

  "Magic trick? Evil spirit?"

  Two words flashed through his mind, an instinctive reaction, Ye Qi stretched out his hand to touch the Lingjing powder hanging from his waist. But as soon as he touched it, he found that not only was the Lingjing powder gone, but also the test tube containing holy water and the EMS detector were missing. Moreover, Ye Qi discovered that he was now in a semi-transparent state, just like the several evil spirits he had eliminated before. This discovery immediately made Ye Qi's mind turbulent: "Am I already dead? Or did I get hit by an illusion spell? Damn it!"

  "Humans, you're not dead yet! But if this goes on any longer, it's almost over!" Along with the low and powerful voice, a dark mist suddenly surged above his head, gradually revealing a scene - a middle-aged vampire with wings on his back held a young man in mid-air with one hand, the man's face was dark red with a hint of purple, clearly about to suffocate.

  And this young man who was about to suffocate was Ye Qi himself.
