Su Xiyan scraped herself, just because she was lost in thought while walking.
She was thinking, if Chen Shuo rushed in at this moment, with so many demon hunters behind, what should she do to protect Chen Shuo if his vampire identity was discovered?
No matter what, she could not let Chen Shuo get hurt.
She also wondered whether the seal she gave Chen Shuo would expose his vampire aura to other vampires?
Seeing Su Xiyan hurt herself on the withered branches in the backyard, the few vampires became even more frenzied!
The leading vampire's eyes flashed red, waved his hand, and led the group of young vampires to rush up!!
Shouting: "The most powerful demon hunter in Su City??"
"Just so-so!!"
"Die!!"
A few vampires together, bringing the bloody wind, seemed to devour Su Xiyan alive in the next second!
Chen Shuo had also tried to restrain the vampire genes in his body. He knew the vampires' thirst for blood was almost mad!!
Chen Shuo didn't think much more. He couldn't bear to see Su Xiyan get hurt, even just a little bit!
In a flash, Chen Shuo stood on the hillside not far away, using the pavilion and foliage as cover.
Then, he grasped at the air with his palm.
And pushed forward!
An extremely powerful wave of energy, in a shape that ordinary people could not perceive, pushed flatly all the way towards the private kitchen!
The moment the energy wave shrouded over the private kitchen, everyone present was stunned!!
What kind of powerful force is this?!
Could it be that the person who wielded this power is the legendary Demon King of Su City?!
Especially on the faces of the vampires, there was an expression of utter shock!
The leading vampire went from shock to excitement and anticipation: "Demon King!! The Demon King is here!!"
"The Demon King of Su City is finally going to show up!!"
"Demon hunters, you are all going to die!"
"With the Demon King's appearance, your time of death is upon you!"
Su Xiyan looked at the invisible air waves in the sky, and cold sweat appeared on her forehead.
She bit her white teeth on her lips.
As the most powerful demon hunter in Su City, Su Xiyan had never witnessed the power of the Demon King before!
To confront the power of the Demon King so directly like this was the first time!
The power of the Demon King was indeed well-deserved!
The demon hunters who were still hiding in the private kitchen also all came out.
They didn't expect that Tang Zhiyuan, who borrowed them to Su City, would get to witness the might of the Demon King!
Under such pressure, it was likely none would survive!
This was too scary!
The demon hunters were in chaos, and some young demon hunters with less experience were even scared to tears:
"What kind of trap is this?"
"Now we're in trouble, didn't find out anything yet ended up attracting the Demon King over."
"Looks like I'm going to die in Su City."
"......"
With the air waves lingering overhead, a look of horror flashed through Su Xiyan's clear eyes.
In all these years as a demon hunter, she had ripped apart countless vampires with her bare hands, and remained calm facing waves of vampire attacks. But at this moment, Su Xiyan also felt a pressure she had never experienced before!
Too strong!
Su Xiyan suddenly thought of Chen Shuo.
If Chen Shuo appeared now, as a young vampire traitor among Su City's vampires.
If the Demon King discovered Chen Shuo's whereabouts, wouldn't Chen Shuo be doomed??
Thinking of this, Su Xiyan felt very remorseful!
How could she not have thought of the Demon King coming? She was even thinking of dragging it out, using the fight with the vampires, pretending that she was defeated and in mortal danger, to lure the mastermind behind the scenes to show himself.
She didn't expect that she didn't manage to lure out the mastermind, but ended up attracting the Demon King instead!
Su Xiyan was worried about Chen Shuo, yet she couldn't escape, so she could only stamp her feet anxiously.
Her expressions were all seen by Chen Shuo.
He saw her go from shock to surprise, and then to frustration.
Along with the words of the demon hunters earlier,
this further confirmed Chen Shuo's thoughts: Su Xiyan really was laying a trap with those demon hunters, to lure him out.
With Chen Shuo's palm lowering slightly in the pavilion,
the huge air wave lingering over the private kitchen suddenly came crashing down!
The swaying bamboo made crackling sounds, bursting from top to bottom.
Su Xiyan held an icy blue demon hunting crossbow in her palm, gritting her teeth and preparing to confront this extremely powerful force.
But this force didn't seem to be aimed at her at all.
The vampires didn't even have time to react before their arrogant expressions turned to horror.
Without even making a move, they turned into piles of ash, drifting away in the air.
Behind Su Xiyan, the demon hunters in the private kitchen all cried out.
However, they were not in mortal danger.
It was as if all the strength of the demon hunters had been drained away, slumping paralyzed where they sat, even speaking seemed to take all their strength.
Of the entire private kitchen, only Su Xiyan remained capable of fighting.
The sky overhead looked no different than before, returned to its former tranquility.
That pressure seemed to have never existed.
The mess in the courtyard, scattered bamboo leaves everywhere, strewn all over.
Did the Demon King just leave like that??
Su Xiyan thought the Demon King would take the chance to wipe out all the demon hunters, after all, for the Demon King, killing them would be as easy as crushing ants.
But after waiting for a while, the Demon King didn't make any other moves.
Could he really have just left like that??
What kind of logic was this Demon King following??
Showing up for a bit, not killing demon hunters but taking out some vampires instead??
What kind of operation was this?
It made no sense!
The autumn sky was overcast.
The first autumn rain of the season came a little early, and a little cold.
Su Xiyan put away the demon hunting crossbow, standing by the courtyard wall, with cold raindrops falling on her face, her vision also somewhat blurred.
Everything felt too unreal.
She also wondered how Chen Shuo was doing.
Chen Shuo??
Chen Shuo!!
An extremely unrealistic, bold, yet plausible guess popped up in Su Xiyan's mind!!
Could it be that Chen Shuo is the Demon King?!
Su Xiyan's expression was unprecedentedly stiff.
Her large eyes were full of disbelief!
If Chen Shuo was the Demon King, then everything would make sense.
Could it be that her trap didn't lure out the mastermind, but instead revealed Chen Shuo's hidden identity??
Su Xiyan's mind went blank...
Just then, footsteps sounded from behind.
Su Xiyan looked back to see Chen Shuo walking over.
She had a complex expression, her lips parted as if to say something but she swallowed it back down.
Chen Shuo had a faint smile on his face as he walked along the corridor to Su Xiyan's side.
He wanted to personally hand the gift box to Su Xiyan, telling her this was the birthday present he had carefully prepared. He had been looking forward for a long time to the moment of finally giving it to her.
He also wanted to tell her, he had imagined countless times what kind of expression Su Xiyan would have when she saw this gift.
But now, Chen Shuo stopped several steps away from Su Xiyan, placing the gift box on the table. His lips parted lightly, and he said four words to Su Xiyan:
"Happy birthday."
