Cheng Xinran also noticed the presence of the Intermediate Vampire. She peeked out of the car window, initially preparing to get out, but her small frame quickly retreated back inside.
Chen Shuo asked, "Aren't you going to help?"
Cheng Xinran's expression remained relaxed and carefree as she started playing with her phone. "It's just an Intermediate Vampire, isn't it?"
"With Xiyan's strength, an Intermediate Vampire is nothing. She'll annihilate it in no time."
"Xiyan hasn't hunted vampires in ages. Ever since she started dating, she's nearly forgotten her life's purpose. Now that a vampire has conveniently shown up, let her hunt it down and practice a bit. It'll keep her skills from getting rusty."
Chen Shuo: ...
What a great best friend indeed! She really understood Su Xiyan well.
Chen Shuo felt that this situation was a bit too unusual, but he didn't voice his concerns. He let Cheng Xinran continue playing on her phone in the car while he got out, leaned against the vehicle, and folded his arms across his chest. He adopted a spectator's stance, watching Su Xiyan face off against the Intermediate Vampire.
The Intermediate Vampire was dressed to the nines, wearing a suit and tie with slicked-back hair. He exuded an exceptionally sleazy aura.
Chen Shuo couldn't help but mock, "Damn! Since when did vampires get so greasy?"
"If he dies, wouldn't he turn into a deep-fried ghost?"
"They could skip the oil-boiling process in hell."
Su Xiyan: "..."
"Chen Shuo, can you please shut up?"
Chen Shuo gave Su Xiyan a suggestive smile. "If I don't shut up, are you going to make me?"
Su Xiyan understood the implication in Chen Shuo's words. She turned her face away, her voice cold yet tinged with a hint of feminine coyness. "Once I'm done with this business, I'll deal with you properly when we get home!"
Chen Shuo: "Hehe~ Alright! Hurry up and finish then. I can't wait to get home and let you 'deal' with me."
The relationship between Chen Shuo and Su Xiyan had already progressed to the point of kisses, hugs, and playful interactions.
They had even rested in the same bed several times. The two of them were just one step away from the most intimate relationship between couples.
Su Xiyan's thin lips had a very memorable feel to them. Chen Shuo recalled the sensation when he first touched that rosy red – initially cool and slightly trembling, followed by an irresistible heat!
Like a fire, once ignited by Chen Shuo, it threatened to consume them both entirely.
Damn, why was he still savoring that memory?
Chen Shuo pushed aside those strange thoughts and focused on the scene before him.
The Intermediate Vampire showed no fear of death and even taunted Su Xiyan: "I've long heard that Su City's highest-ranked Demon Hunter is a super beautiful woman. Now that I see you, you are indeed quite pretty. However, you lack the resolve of a true Demon Hunter."
"In the world of Demon Hunters and Vampires, beauty is useless. You need strength to survive."
"Can you even write the four characters for 'decisive and ruthless'?"
Su Xiyan had been gathering her strength, intending to hunt down this vampire immediately.
She hadn't expected the vampire to be so reckless and provocative.
The more the vampire acted this way, the more cautious Su Xiyan became. She too sensed something wasn't quite right.
Women's intuition is generally stronger, and in her previous encounters with vampires, upon learning they were facing the ice-cold Demon Hunter Su Xiyan, they would either curse loudly, kneel and beg for mercy, or fight to the death.
But none had ever taunted her like this vampire was doing.
His fearless demeanor was too unusual!
Su Xiyan wasn't stupid; she could certainly guess the reason behind it.
It had to be that this vampire had someone powerful backing him! The only one who could make a mere Intermediate Vampire so arrogant, apart from the Demon King, would be no one else.
So, Su Xiyan refrained from delivering the killing blow and asked, "Where's that Demon King of yours?"
"Why not come out and meet face to face? Why hide like a coward?"
The Intermediate Vampire sneered, "You? Our Demon King doesn't even consider a little girl like you worth his attention."
The meaning behind these words was already very clear!
The Demon King's target wasn't Su Xiyan at all.
Su Xiyan, hailed as Su City's youngest and highest-ranked Demon Hunter, apparently didn't even register in the Demon King's eyes?
If the target wasn't Su Xiyan, then it could only be Chen Shuo.
Su Xiyan and Chen Shuo exchanged a glance, their tacit understanding immediately grasping the meaning in each other's eyes.
Chen Shuo stopped spectating and sauntered forward. "Your Demon King's target is me, isn't it?"
"If he's interested in me, why not come out and meet in person? Sending a small fry like you to test me, is that supposed to be amusing?"
"Even if you're trying to fish, you need proper bait, don't you?"
"For a target interesting enough to catch your Demon King's attention, you couldn't even be bothered to invest properly? Just sending a little vampire like you, are you here as a joke?"
"The title of Demon King sounds intimidating, but his methods are petty and embarrassing."
"How utterly shameful!"
After speaking, Chen Shuo couldn't help but laugh out loud.
His tone was full of contempt and disdain.
Chen Shuo knew that the Demon King must be watching this scene unfold.
Whatever was happening here, the Demon King surely knew about it.
Chen Shuo boldly guessed in his heart that the Demon King probably didn't know the extent of his abilities and might even be a bit afraid of him! That's why he didn't dare to show himself.
Hearing Chen Shuo's words, Su Xiyan suddenly understood completely.
The little vampire was just bait, a lure cast by the Demon King to test Chen Shuo.
She had originally planned to use this vampire's points to help herself level up, but now it seemed this vampire might be of help to Chen Shuo? It could serve as a breakthrough point, allowing them to follow the trail and potentially round up all the vampires in Su City.
This Demon King, Xiao Mingchen, had also been a thorn in her father Su Yuanying's side.
It had been a decades-long worry; why not help her father remove this burden sooner rather than later?
The Intermediate Vampire seemed to have known all along that he wouldn't be hunted down.
Su Xiyan's hesitation further confirmed his inner thoughts.
His words became even more brazen!
"Since you can't kill me anyway, why not remove the barrier soon?"
"If you have anything to say to our respected Demon King, say it now while I'm in a good mood. I might consider relaying the message for you."
"My good mood won't last forever, so you'd better hurry up."
Chen Shuo wore an enigmatic smile as he slowly walked to Su Xiyan's side and asked:
"In the Demon Hunter ranking system, how many points do you get for killing an Intermediate Vampire?"
Su Xiyan replied, "Not a lot,"
"But it's not insignificant either."
Chen Shuo grinned, "Hehe, that's right,"
"After all, even a fly is meat. We shouldn't be picky."
The vampire looked at Chen Shuo and suddenly panicked: "Y-y-you... you guys... don't..."
