In the car, Su Xiyan's gaze was clear, looking at the empty distance, as if thinking about a very important issue.
Chen Shuo pretended to look indifferent, but was actually using the corner of his eye to secretly observe Su Xiyan's micro expressions.
This was the first time he easily killed a vampire of the same kind,
Not to mention a skinny, malnourished vampire, even a strong high-level vampire, in front of Chen Shuo, was nothing but an ant.
With a snap of his fingers, it could be reduced to ashes, as if it had never come to this world.
Did Su Xiyan notice the vampire that was killed in seconds in the enchantment just now?
Chen Shuo carefully recalled every detail in his mind and filtered through it to make sure there were no flaws.
Moreover, according to Su Xiyan's personality, if she found anything wrong, she would definitely not hold back and directly show her cards to Chen Shuo, and might even question Chen Shuo directly, and it was very likely that the two would immediately become completely opposed.
But Su Xiyan didn't do that. She just casually said that there was a question she wanted to ask Chen Shuo.
Chen Shuo, whose thoughts were flying everywhere, was pulled back by Su Xiyan's question again:
"Are you asking me? What are you daydreaming about?"
Chen Shuo perfunctorily replied: "I was wondering if I gave the barbecue stall owner too much or too little money."
"Oh yes, didn't you just say you had a question for me?"
"What's the question?"
Su Xiyan asked while driving: "You are still just a lowest level vampire, right?"
Chen Shuo's heart skipped a beat!
He thought, could Su Xiyan have found out something? Could it be that some small detail was discovered by Su Xiyan just now?
Chen Shuo was extremely flustered inwardly, but was calm on the surface:
"Yes! I didn't even want to become a vampire in the first place. I was forcibly bitten and turned into a vampire."
"So I have no interest whatsoever in vampires leveling up and stuff like that."
"Until now, I'm still just a little weakling vampire."
Su Xiyan nodded: "Well, do you know that the Demon King's whereabouts have appeared in Su City?"
Demon King?!!
Isn't that me?
Chen Shuo was still very calm: "It's normal for there to be a Demon King! I heard that the highest rank of vampires is Demon Saint. Is it worth your solemn question just because of a mere Demon King?"
"What, are you afraid?"
Su Xiyan's expression was blank as she continued to ask: "Do you know who the Demon King of Su City is?"
Chen Shuo replied: "I don't know! If I knew, I would definitely tell you first and let you go kill him."
"Hunting down a Demon King should give a lot of points and experience, right? Would it be enough for you to immediately advance to become a Legendary Demon Hunter?"
Su Xiyan looked at Chen Shuo as if he was an idiot, and elegantly rolled her eyes: "Chen Shuo, do you really want me to break through to become a legend prematurely? Or ascend to heaven prematurely?"
Chen Shuo pretended to be surprised: "Ah? Is the Demon King so powerful??"
"In my heart, you are already the strongest in Su City. I didn't expect that there would still be vampires that you can't hunt!"
"Aren't vampires always very afraid of demon hunters? How come you are the one afraid of vampires instead?"
Su Xiyan's hands holding the steering wheel were a little sweaty: "The Demon King's power is beyond your imagination."
"Not to mention me, even if all the demon hunters in Su City were added together, they probably wouldn't be a match for the Demon King."
"The Demon King's whereabouts have appeared in Su City, but his exact location has not been detected."
"Elusive like a ghost, it makes one feel very insecure."
So even Su Xiyan has moments when she feels insecure? Chen Shuo felt quite surprised.
If Su Xiyan knew that the person sitting next to her right now was the Demon King, he wondered what her expression would be?
Chen Shuo thought that it would be better if he didn't know such an expression.
If possible, he hoped that day would never come.
Chen Shuo fell into contemplation. Su Xiyan thought Chen Shuo was afraid, but the fact remains that she still had to remind Chen Shuo:
"After the last incident, you are now considered a complete traitor within the vampire organization."
"From now on you have to be careful at all times. It's possible that the Demon King could appear by our side at any time."
"It's also possible that the Demon King will clean up his doorstep and execute the traitor."
I'm the Demon King, aren't I?
Am I going to kill myself?
Chen Shuo was complacent: "Don't worry, I'll be fine."
Su Xiyan's eyebrows twitched slightly: "Oh? So confident? Could it be that you know the Demon King so he won't harm you??"
Chen Shuo was scared into a cold sweat. He thought Su Xiyan was too meticulous.
She was able to capture even the slightest abnormality in his expression and tone.
And she asked such a piercing question.
By this point, he had no choice but to sell his handsome image again!
Chen Shuo leaned his head against Su Xiyan's fair and delicate arm: "This is because you are here with me!"
"With you by my side, I feel very safe."
"You are so strong that you will surely protect me completely, right?"
"This shows my confidence in you! In my heart, you are an invincible existence! My stabilizer!"
When Chen Shuo said these words, his voice was sonorous and forceful, very determined!
Su Xiyan looked at Chen Shuo, seeming to want say something yet unable to.
She felt very complicated inside: "Chen Shuo, just stay an innocent little newbie vampire forever!"
"The less you know, the happier you actually are!"
On the surface, Chen Shuo still had a silly grin, but deep down, he was a little touched.
Su Xiyan, was this her way of caring about me?
The atmosphere in the car was unprecedentedly subtle.
The cool night wind blew in, the car windows were not completely closed, and the refreshing wind blew away the heat of the day and messed up Su Xiyan's hair.
The slightly disheveled hair was strewn across Su Xiyan's temples, making her icy jade-like face appear even more gentle and beautiful.
Chen Shuo felt that if he didn't say something, it would weigh on his conscience.
So Chen Shuo suggested: "Oh yes, you just said I'm considered a traitor among the vampires now, right?"
Su Xiyan nodded: "Yes."
"I feel something was off about tonight's events. I think the vampire who deliberately lured me away was not targeting me, but you."
"But for some reason, the vampire didn't make a move on you."
"It could also be because I noticed their sinister plot ahead of time and rushed over in time, so they didn't have a chance to make a move on you?"
Chen Shuo sneered to himself inwardly. He thought, Su Xiyan is still a very confident person!
She still doesn't know that the vampires had already made their move on Chen Shuo, it's just that they were easily annihilated by Chen Shuo without leaving any trace behind.
If she had waited for Su Xiyan to rush over, Chen Shuo would have been long dead by then.
However, he couldn't tell Su Xiyan what he was thinking inwardly. He could only continue praising her:
"So that's what happened! Those vampires are too crafty!"
"Speaking of which, shouldn't I still thank you for saving my life tonight?"
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system?

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "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. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.
