Innell knew that it was impossible for him to escape. Under such dire circumstances, he hardened his heart and an extremely brutal aura emanated from his body. At the same time, his body silently burned with dim yellow flames.
The flames flickered uncontrollably as though a gentle breeze could extinguish them. But when they appeared, the entire space was filled with an aura of despair and destruction.
“Twilight!” Mo Wen narrowed his gaze slightly. There was a very frightening secret technique among the Demon Gods Alliance called Twilight. This technique traded one’s life force, burning away everything that one had, even their soul, in exchange for frightening attack power.
It was often the case that the member of the Demon Gods Alliance would not unleash this deadly secret technique even if they were about to die. It was because once they unleashed Twilight, their soul would be scattered and disappear from the world. However, Innell was actually so fierce that he was preparing to unleash this forbidden technique. He was willing to send his soul flying into pieces in order to take Mo Wen down with him.
Back in Fu Sang Country, Mo Wen had seen the vampire called Charles unleash Twilight, killing off a large number of strong enemies in one swoop. Even people who were a realm higher could be killed off.
Mo Wen did not know how frightening it would be for a vampire comparable to a Martial Arts Grandmaster to unleash Twilight. If Mo Wen let him complete Twilight, Mo Wen could be certain that he would be no match for it.
Twilight was not unstoppable. It took time to completely unleash it. However, the time it took was very short. It was usually very difficult to stop it.
A purple light flashed, and the Cries of Hades Bell instantly appeared in Mo Wen’s hand. Golden light shone in his eyes, and a wave instantly expanded outwards, directly colliding into Innell’s body.
Ptui!
The vampire Innell furiously spat out a mouthful of blood. He felt his head turn dizzy. He could not see anything in front of him and his mind had turned sluggish.
Mo Wen’s silhouette appeared in front of him in a flash. The Blood Clotting Claw directly pierced through his abdomen, opening up a gaping big hole. Torrents of crimson flame seemed to envelop the vampire entirely.
His body received the destructive damage and his power was depleted drastically. He could not maintain Twilight, and the pale yellow flame extinguished bit by bit before finally disappearing completely.
“You… I…” Innell opened his eyes as wide as he could. They were filled with dissatisfaction and hatred. He did not even have the ability to take this youth down with him.
“What unspeakable secret makes you vampires come all the way to Hua Xia?” Mo Wen asked expressionlessly.
“Just you wait! The Blood Kindred will seek revenge for me.” The vampire’s body suddenly expanded. A last burst of power exploded from his body. Seeing that he could not kill Mo Wen, he decisively committed suicide, preventing Mo Wen from doing anything to him.
“Did I allow you to die?” Mo Wen’s figure that was holding up the vampire shook, directly suppressing Innell’s self-destructive power back into his body. At the same time, a golden light flashed in his eyes and a mental wave directly crashed into Innell’s mind.
Mo Wen’s mental power was powerful. Even Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm ancient martial art practitioners could not compare. The gaze of the severely injured vampire Innell went dull, seemingly as though he had lost his soul.
“Is he dead?” Jin Ying said with an astonished expression as she flew over and looked at the motionless vampire in Mo Wen’s hand.
In just a short while, a vampire comparable to a Martial Arts Grandmaster had been killed by Mo Wen. Before this, Granny had asked her to compete against Mo Wen in the Martial Arts Circle Convention. Even if she could not win, she had to demonstrate her powerful ability. But right now, she felt that the two of them were not on the same level at all. There was almost no possibility of them dueling.
“Almost dead. When I get what I want, I will let him die. Wait for me here,” Mo Wen said. Then, with a flash of his silhouette, he flew into the little forest below.
“What he wants?” Jin Ying was slightly stunned. What could Mo Wen want with a vampire? The people from the western world were different from those in Hua Xia. They did not have any good stuff and only rarely had ordinary spiritual weapons. In the western world, there were sacred weapons that were similar to immortal cultivator magical treasures. Overall, sacred weapons were no different from immortal cultivator magical treasures. However, sacred weapons in the western world were scarce. It was impossible for ordinary people to get their hands on one. It was difficult for even a Blood Kindred Earl to possess a sacred weapon.
Comparatively, Hua Xia’s manufacturing techniques were far more advanced. Also, the Huatian Palace had an impressive background and had many more channels through which to obtain magical treasures.
After about two to three minutes, Mo Wen flew back. The vampire Innell had now been completely turned to dust.
Jin Ying looked at Mo Wen curiously. She wanted to know what Mo Wen was after. Could it be that the vampire really had treasures on him? But why was it that when he was against Mo Wen, she had not seen him take any out?
“I just asked him a few questions.” Mo Wen smiled. “There are a few groups of vampires that have come to Hua Xia this time,” he said. “These two vampires are but one of the groups. Aside from them, there is a vampire who is their leader, and he is called Charlie. Right now, I have something that I need to immediately attend to.”
“Go about your business. I will immediately return to the Huatian Palace to report this matter. If so many vampires with high cultivation are coming to Hua Xia, they must be up to something.” Jin Ying nodded her head. Although she did not know what Mo Wen needed to do, she was not stupid enough to ask him directly.
“They are here for the Blood Kindred’s Divine Blood. This matter is related to one of the aristocratic families of the Capital’s Five Ancient Martial Arts Aristocratic Families,” Mo Wen said.
“Divine Blood?” Jin Ying was stunned, but immediately nodded her head and said, “I will report this matter later. Farewell.” Jin Ying became a beam of golden light, disappearing into the night in a few blinks.
As he watched Jin Ying’s silhouette disappear into the distance, Mo Wen’s expression turned serious. So many vampires had come to Hua Xia. It made him recall the incidents in Fu Sang Country. The reason he had interrogated the vampire was to discover their reason for coming to Hua Xia. As expected, it was because of the Blood ancestor’s Divine Blood!
Back then, many large factions from around the globe had fought over the Blood ancestor’s Divine Blood. In the end, it had been taken away by Mo Wen, while everyone else returned empty-handed.
He initially thought that this matter had already come to a close. If he did not take out the Blood ancestor’s Divine Blood, no one would know that the Blood ancestor’s Divine Blood was on him.
However, he had underestimated the abilities of the Blood Kindred. He did not know what method they had used, but they had worked out that the Blood ancestor’s Divine Blood was in Hua Xia. So many vampires had infiltrated Hua Xia this time with the goal of finding the Blood ancestor’s Divine Blood.
Mo Wen was not worried about the Blood Kindred discovering him. He had sealed the Blood ancestor’s Divine Blood in the medicine spiritual ring long ago. The medicine spiritual ring was a standalone space. Also, Ji Wuya’s Primordial Soul Power was protecting it. It was almost impossible for the Blood Kindred to detect the Blood ancestor’s Divine Blood unless an absolutely mighty adversary came personally.
Instead, Mo Wen was now worried about Gu Jingman. Back then, due to a strange turn of events, Gu Jingman had not inherited the Blood ancestor’s Divine Blood. Instead, an even more mysterious Blood God’s heritage had burst out of nowhere and forced the Blood ancestor’s Divine Blood out from Gu Jingman’s body. But that Blood God’s heritage was also an object of the Blood Kindred. It was even more important than the Blood ancestor’s Divine Blood. If Gu Jingman was discovered by those Blood Kindred, things would probably take a turn for the worse.
“First, let’s settle the matter of the Huo Clan.” A cold look flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes. The other vampires had gone to find the Huo Clan.
Aside from finding the Blood ancestor’s Divine Blood, the Blood Kindred had another goal. They had to find Huo Changxing, who initially was a blood slave, and get back the missing Sacred Embryo Incarnation.
Back then, Mo Wen had retrieved the Sacred Embryo Incarnation that was in Huo Changxing’s body as well as severing the connection between the Blood Kindred and the Sacred Embryo Incarnation. Who would have thought that the Blood Kindred were so resourceful and had gone to find the Huo Clan so quickly?
When he was interrogating vampire Innell, Mo Wen found out that their leader, Lord Charlie, was already on his way to the Huo Clan.
Although the Sacred Embryo Incarnation was far less precious than the Blood ancestor’s Divine Blood, among the Blood Kindred, it was still an inherited treasure that could breed a pureblood vampire. The value of a Sacred Embryo Incarnation was equivalent to a Marquis vampire who was comparable to a Primordial Soul Realm immortal cultivator.
The Blood Kindred would exhaust all possible means to get such an important item back.
Interestingly, the Sacred Embryo Incarnation was also with Mo Wen.
“If I rush over to the Huo Clan right now, I might still make it.”
Mo Wen became a flash, instantly disappearing from his original spot. The Huo Clan was one of the Capital’s Five Ancient Martial Arts Aristocratic Families, and they had their headquarters in the capital. Mo Wen flew as fast as he could and appeared above the Huo Clan old manor in less than five minutes.
Late at night, the Huo Clan old manor was quiet with nothing seemingly out of the ordinary going on. But Mo Wen’s expression instantly turned serious. With a flash of his silhouette, he entered a separate courtyard.
The courtyard was not big, but it was complete with a miniature pond, rockery, and a grove. The surroundings were rather beautiful.
At this moment, in the master bedroom, a bizarre crimson light flashed in the darkness like a ghost fire. In the room, Huo Changxing was in his pajamas. His eyes were dull and his body seemed to float above his bed as though he was weightless. His face was as pale as a corpse.
Next to his figure stood a dark shadow. The dark shadow was completely enveloped in a black robe. Only a pair of crimson eyes could be seen, emanating a monstrous light.
“Who took the Sacred Embryo Incarnation from your body?” A voice with a weird pitch sounded in the house. The voice seemed to have some bizarre magic, causing Huo Changxing to answer his question involuntarily.
“Mo… Mo Wen…”Huo Changxing said dully. He seemed to have lost his soul, leaving an outer shell.
“Who is Mo Wen? What is his identity? Where is he?” the bizarre voice continued to ask.
“He is… he…” Huo Changxing’s mouth squirmed, but he could not speak for a while. His expression was very painful, as though he was struggling.
“Humph, answer the question.” The strange voice became even more bizarre. It was like an echo in a valley, constantly crashing into Huo Changxing’s mind. In the darkness, the pair of enchanting eyes were even more radiant.
“He’s… he’s…” Huo Changxing’s facial expression became even more painful. But he still struggled, seemingly very reluctant to answer the question.
“You have some willpower. You are more powerful than your Hua Xia Country’s weak ancient martial art practitioners.”
In the dark, the voice became colder. A shriveled hand slowly reached out from the darkness. A beam of crimson light flew out from its finger, pointing towards Huo Changxing’s temple. The originally still struggling Huo Changxing instantly calmed down. His expression was dull like a wooden puppet.
“Where is this Mo Wen? What is his identity?” the bizarre voice continued to ask.
“You don’t need to ask anymore. I am here.” However, the voice which answered him this time did not belong to Huo Changxing. Someone else was speaking.
