From Xiao Mingchen's words, it seemed he wasn't too keen on dealing with Chen Shuo?
An impulsive vampire stepped forward, unable to contain himself: "But..."
Before he could finish, a blast of energy so powerful it forced everyone's eyes shut swept through the area. Even the surrounding ruins seemed to surge with the energy wave!
When the energy dissipated and the vampires reopened their eyes, they discovered that the impulsive vampire who had just questioned the Demon King had been reduced to a puddle of black blood, seeping into the cracked earth.
The vampire who had been boldly speaking just moments ago, a living ghost, had suddenly vanished.
Xiao Mingchen remained seated in his original position, as if he hadn't moved at all.
Disposing of a minor vampire to establish authority was worth it.
The other vampires stared at the puddle of black blood, none daring to question the Demon King's decision again.
They finally understood why lower-ranked vampires must unconditionally obey the orders of higher-ranked vampires.
Because those who disobeyed were dead.
The night wind suddenly picked up, swirling the dry leaves left from autumn and winter.
Xiao Mingchen began to exercise his rights as Demon King, issuing his decision to the vampires:
"I've said before, the breakthrough for Su City's Demon Hunters lies with Chen Shuo."
"So, we'll start with Chen Shuo..."
The rest of his words were lost in the night wind.
Su City, which had only recently found peace, was likely to be plunged into bloody turmoil once again in this gust of wind!
On Saturday, Chen Shuo was enjoying the rare luxury of sleeping in.
For the past few weekends, he had been disturbed by various matters and hadn't been able to sleep in at all.
Strangely today, Su Xiyan hadn't come to pull off Chen Shuo's blanket.
Su Xiyan was an extremely disciplined person. Whether it was a weekend or not, she would get up early to wash up and then exercise.
Beauty may be natural, but maintaining the status of a super beauty also requires effort.
Since the beginning of winter, Su Xiyan's favorite thing to do every morning was to come to Chen Shuo's room and pull the sleeping Chen Shuo out of his warm cocoon.
Then she would watch Chen Shuo's sleepy and shivering appearance with a smug smile on her face.
But this scene wouldn't last long.
Fearing Chen Shuo might actually catch a cold, once he was fully awake, she would cover him back up with the blanket to keep him from getting chilled.
Oddly, Su Xiyan hadn't gotten up this morning.
Without Su Xiyan coming to pull off his blanket, Chen Shuo seemed to have woken up very early. Perhaps, unknowingly, his biological clock had completely synced with Su Xiyan's.
A weekend without Su Xiyan coming to pull off his blanket felt a bit strange!
Chen Shuo was enjoying his lazy time, curled up in bed playing with his phone.
After a while, there was a knock at the door.
Chen Shuo quickly stuffed his phone under his pillow, pretending to be asleep.
Outside the door, Su Xiyan knocked a few times but got no response from Chen Shuo.
Chen Shuo had thought Su Xiyan would burst into the room and drag him out of bed, but to his surprise, Su Xiyan stopped knocking.
Chen Shuo pricked up his ears and heard the sound of Su Xiyan's slippers walking away from his door.
Not caring anymore, Chen Shuo took out his phone again and happily played in bed.
He didn't know how long he played before his eyes became blurry.
Chen Shuo simply went back to sleep, sleeping until he naturally woke up.
Stretching comfortably, he checked his phone and saw it was already 11:30 in the morning.
The feeling of sleeping until naturally waking up was so good! Every pore in his body felt relaxed!
Chen Shuo got up, put on a coat, and walked out of the room.
Opening the door, Chen Shuo smelled the aroma of food from the living room.
Did they have a guest? Chen Shuo noticed an extra pair of women's shoes with bows at the entrance.
Lolita style?
Who else would wear such shoes besides the lolita Cheng Xinran?
From the kitchen came the sound of two girls talking in low voices.
Amidst the music, Chen Shuo thought he heard someone mentioning his name.
Were Su Xiyan and Cheng Xinran hiding in the kitchen secretly talking about him?
Caught you, didn't I?
Chen Shuo's inner gossip fire was burning fiercely. He tiptoed to the kitchen door to eavesdrop on the two girls' conversation.
"Xiyan, didn't you used to not cook?"
"Being able to cook doesn't mean you have to cook. I didn't cook before because I hadn't found a reason to cook."
"Oh~~~ I see, Xiyan, you've found someone worth cooking for now, right?"
Su Xiyan smiled softly and made an affirmative sound.
Cheng Xinran protested: "Xiyan! I've never even tasted your cooking! I don't know where Chen Shuo got the luck to have our pampered Miss Su personally cook for him!"
"Cooking is a pleasure, you wouldn't understand."
"Hmph! You're not the same cold goddess you used to be. Since you've been with Chen Shuo, you've turned into a domestic housewife washing vegetables and cooking soup!"
When Su Xiyan spoke, happiness seemed about to overflow from her voice: "Actually, it's always been Chen Shuo cooking for me. He's been too tired lately, so today I didn't wake him up and let him sleep in properly."
At this point, Cheng Xinran's voice became serious: "That's true, Chen Shuo does need to rest well. There's a tough battle waiting for him ahead!"
Su Xiyan's tone also filled with her former icy aura, even with a hint of killing intent!
"As long as I'm here, vampires won't be able to harm Chen Shuo one bit!!"
"Want to touch my man? Did they ask if I, Su Xiyan, would allow it??"
Just then, the dish in the pot needed garlic. After Su Xiyan finished speaking, with a swift chop, she smashed several cloves of garlic to bits!!
Cheng Xinran beside her was startled.
So scary, so scary!! But this is the ice goddess Su Xiyan I know!!
Chen Shuo had been listening to the earlier content with a smile.
He didn't expect the tone and atmosphere to change so quickly.
One second ago, Su Xiyan was sweetly showing off their love.
The next second, the topic had turned to the opposition between vampires and Demon Hunters.
Chen Shuo felt that he seemed to be a very important character, with important things waiting for him to do. Wanting to wash his hands of it was simply impossible. Once in this situation, he found he was already in too deep to extract himself.
If that's the case, then face the storm head-on! Chen Shuo had never been one to run away, especially when he had an ace up his sleeve!
With both the Demon Saint and the system backing him up,
It's like having a double safety net! What's there to fear? Bring it on!
Chen Shuo pretended he hadn't heard anything, acting as if he had just come out of his room. He deliberately made his footsteps heavier as he went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash his face.
Su Xiyan and Cheng Xinran in the kitchen also heard Chen Shuo's footsteps and immediately ended their previous conversation.
agon king storylines. At the start, I obtained the "Ultimate Lackey System" - the more I act as a lackey, the stronger I become. What else could I do? I chose to become the personal henchman of the ultimate villain, Su Muwan. I provoke all sorts of chosen ones, snatch away their opportunities, and commit every evil deed imaginable. You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family. Since childhood, I've possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, which led to my arrogant and domineering personality in my past life. I was even foolish enough to repeatedly challenge those favored by heaven, ultimately resulting in a tragic death. In this life, I must behave and absolutely cannot walk the same path again!! However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink. Su Muwan's suspended heart finally died as she watched Qin Luo, her utterly loyal lackey, standing before her. She fainted on the spot from shock. Heaven is determined to destroy me!!

But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever."

uld barely embark on the path to immortality. Just as he was on the verge of death, his golden finger awakened. No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight. From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.
