Su Xiyan's gaze darkened, and she even began to worry about Chen Shuo.
Chen Shuo was also a Demon King, and if another Demon King appeared in Su City with comparable strength, Chen Shuo could potentially get hurt. In situations where opponents are of equal level and power, the chances of both parties being severely injured are quite high.
Although Chen Shuo was intelligent, he had become a Demon King at a young age, so his battle experience was certainly not as rich as the other Demon King's. He was also kind-hearted, which meant he probably couldn't defeat a cunning and ruthless Demon King.
The more Su Xiyan thought about it, the less she wanted to continue this meeting!
Sitting in her chair, she felt as if needles were pricking her entire body. She was constantly worried about Chen Shuo's safety, fearing he might suffer even the slightest injury.
When they first met, she had promised Chen Shuo that she would protect him and look after him in the future.
Come to think of it, her own level was still quite far from matching a Demon King's strength.
Su Xiyan suddenly realized that it had been a very long time since she had last upgraded her level.
After falling in love, she had forgotten to improve her strength.
The Demon Hunters in the conference room furrowed their brows as they looked at the contents of the file.
This situation was unprecedented in the history of Su City's Demon Hunters!
Was a Demon King finally going to make an appearance?
A oppressive atmosphere permeated the entire conference room. Usually, meetings were filled with discussions, but this time, not a single person spoke.
The door opened, and Su Yuanying, dressed in a beige cotton and linen Tang suit, walked in.
Su Yuanying had hair that wasn't very long but long enough to tie back, which he had combed back and tied into a small bun at the back of his head.
Around his neck hung a string of antique-looking bamboo beads. The quality was excellent, and a conservative estimate of the price of this string of beads would be more than enough to buy a house in Su City.
Although his attire seemed unremarkable, the clothes were all custom-made, befitting Su Yuanying's status as a big shot.
From the moment Su Yuanying entered the conference room, the atmosphere changed from tense to slightly more relaxed.
With such a powerful figure like Su Yuanying presiding, the Demon Hunters felt much more at ease. The dark clouds in their hearts dissipated somewhat.
Su Yuanying sat in the top position, his posture rather casual, unlike Tang Zhiyuan who used to like to put on airs.
"I believe everyone has already seen the contents of the folder," he said.
"Let me say a few words."
"First, a vampire of at least Demon King level has appeared in Su City, and their methods are extremely brutal!"
"Everyone's primary task is to ensure their own safety. Do not act on your own if you find traces of the Demon King!"
"This Demon King has come on strong! In just a few days, they've killed several of our Demon Hunters. But this is just the beginning! There will be even bigger moves coming!"
At this point, all the Demon Hunters present were surprised!
They had thought that with Su Yuanying's arrival, everyone would be able to calm down. But unexpectedly, even Su Yuanying was taking a rather conservative approach to dealing with this Demon King.
If it were ordinary vampires, Su Yuanying would have already ordered people to wipe out their nest!
Facing the questioning looks from those below, Su Yuanying clenched his fist and said in a low voice, "The reason I'm telling everyone to protect themselves is because..."
"Because this Demon King is an old acquaintance of mine!"
An old acquaintance?!
With these words, there was an uproar below!!
Even Su Xiyan was surprised! Her father, the leader of Su City's Demon Hunters, was acquainted with the newly arrived Demon King in Su City??
How come she had never heard her father mention this before?
Judging from her father's grave expression, this so-called old acquaintance was going to be difficult to deal with!
Su Xiyan thought for a moment and confirmed that this new Demon King was not Chen Shuo.
So, she hid her phone under the table and quietly sent Chen Shuo a WeChat message: "Be careful."
In the car, Chen Shuo was playing a game with the full-screen Do Not Disturb mode on, and didn't see the WeChat notification from Su Xiyan at all.
At that moment, in the underground parking garage, a black aura was gradually enveloping the area.
A murderous intent was slowly converging towards the white AMG car!
Inside the car, Chen Shuo had the windows closed and headphones on, playing his game. He even had his legs comfortably crossed, completely unaware of the danger approaching him.
Meanwhile, in the conference room on the upper floors of the building, Su Yuanying briefly explained about the old acquaintance he had just mentioned, under the questioning gazes of everyone.
"Actually, when I received the transfer order from the Su City Demon Hunter Headquarters a while ago, I was a bit hesitant."
"All these years, I've been traveling abroad, or to put it another way, I've been avoiding a certain old acquaintance."
"This old acquaintance is the Demon King who has appeared in Su City."
"This Demon King can change into different identities, can hide their vampire aura, and appears in various places like a ghost."
"I only remember that when we first crossed paths, he called himself Xiao Mingchen. This should be his real name."
"When I was young, I once led the Demon Hunter Organization to wipe out his entire family, but he alone was overlooked. I never expected that after so many years, he would cultivate to the level of a Demon King and come back for revenge! A Demon King is on par with me in strength, so he can't gain much advantage over me directly."
"So, he can only target the people around me. For years, I've been detached from the Demon Hunter Organization, traveling outside, and rarely even coming home, just to prevent him from harming the people close to me."
"The reason I came back to Su City this time and accepted the transfer order was because my daughter, Su Xiyan, had become the highest-ranked Demon Hunter in Su City. That old acquaintance must have already known this news. If I didn't return to Su City, he might have gone after Xiyan."
"I didn't expect that even though I came back quietly, he still found his way to Su City!"
"This matter needs to be resolved sooner or later. What's meant to come will come!"
At this point, Su Yuanying paused for a moment, giving those below enough time to digest the information.
He picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.
Su Xiyan's heart trembled slightly. She never imagined that her father, who had been wandering for years, suddenly accepted the transfer order to Su City because he wanted to protect her!
All these years when her father wasn't by her side and rarely contacted them, it was also to protect his family!
A father's love is like a mountain, silent and unexpressed, but when danger comes, it stands like a thick mountain in front of you, shielding you from all dangers!
Afterwards, Su Yuanying gave some precautions.
Based on his years of experience confronting this nemesis, he imparted some of his knowledge to the Demon Hunters present.
As they left the conference room, all the Demon Hunters had dark clouds hanging over their faces.
Su City, which had just settled down, was about to face an even more powerful storm of blood and violence!
At this moment, Cheng Xinran's phone suddenly emitted a loud alarm sound!

"This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.
