?Mobile reading The European vampire lineage has been thoroughly upended by Qin Feng, Isabella, and Su Wu, causing widespread anxiety and even prompting some to leave their homes and seek refuge elsewhere. Eight Zero E-book (txt02.com) Regarding this matter, several countries with ties to the vampires have expressed strong dissatisfaction. However, this issue had always been too sensitive to be openly discussed—these nations had only privately approached senior officials from China. The Chinese top brass were furious—hadn't they just agreed to take a temporary, non-confrontational stance toward the European vampires? Who had the audacity to initiate such an investigation? Once the top officials issued their directives, no one dared to be negligent. They mobilized their most efficient teams, and within a short time, the investigation was completed, with Qin Feng emerging as the lead figure. Who is Qin Feng? While others might not know, the top brass were well aware—he is a member of the Special Operations Unit and, more specifically, the son-in-law of Mr. Wei, the esteemed elder. If it were anyone else, the senior figures would have been furious long ago. In the end, one sentence from Mr. Wei settled everyone—those who had protested, especially from Europe, were now content and their complaints were merely delayed. Mr. Wei Qingshan said: "Young people are naturally spirited—what a good trait! After all, it was Xiao Feng who led the campaign to defeat the vampires who had come to China to cause disturbances. If he knows about this, yet remains indifferent as others do, then our nation's next generation must truly be lacking. Can you really place your hopes in such individuals?" According to Mr. Wei's view, young people should be full of vigor and clear in their sense of justice—exactly the qualities that the senior figures themselves once embodied. While maturity is admirable, those who are overly seasoned often lack the spark—this is a serious shortcoming. Moreover, strictly speaking, this was a personal initiative of Qin Feng, not part of any official assignment or departmental directive. Thus, it bears no official connection to the Chinese government. Since the big shots have made their stance clear, who's left to say another word? In truth, even if Qin Young is dissatisfied, he won't take it seriously—after all, I've already killed vampires, so what's to stop you from holding me accountable? This is sheer confidence, and it's no surprise, given our strong position. In the heart of Europe, after the intense purges over the past few days, few vampires can now be found—those that do appear are mostly low-ranking ones. Lower-level vampires? No problem—we'll just keep killing them. Moreover, Qin Young has deliberately signaled that this is a retaliatory move against the vampires' ongoing disturbances in China. Anyone who's still不服 can come and fight—my patience is absolute. The vampire clans are barely managing to hide; who dares to make a fuss? Anyone who steps up will fall short even against a Ghost King-level master—no one dares to complain about their own longevity. Su Wu, who just managed to defeat two mid-level vampires, walked over to Qin's young lord with a look of disappointment, pouting and saying, "It's just boring. So boring! I keep facing opponents with such weak abilities—completely lacking in challenge!" Thanks to Qin's young lord providing support, Su was equally confident. In fact, with her current strength, she only slightly outperformed mid-level vampires, still falling short of the higher-level ones. Yet, because of Qin Feng's presence, she not only felt bold enough to challenge high-level vampires but even faced the King of Ghosts without any fear. "It's no use—those people just flee at the sight of us, and since this is their home ground, it's incredibly difficult to get them out here." He had been constantly thinking about whether he could devise a one-time solution that would permanently resolve the issue. Given the current situation, the vampires have indeed been intimidated, but that doesn't mean they've been completely subdued. Perhaps right after the Qin young lord and his companions leave Europe, these vampires will already organize a counteroffensive against China. If that happens, it would be truly unfortunate. Therefore, the three of them would never leave this place until they had fully broken the vampires' resistance. Yet the current reality is that the vampires have scattered in all directions, fleeing in panic to avoid major losses. They've abandoned their traditional habit of living in groups and now operate in smaller, more dispersed units. This shift is primarily due to the collapse of several prominent families, which has caused significant psychological distress. "Why don't you issue a formal challenge, inviting the vampires to engage in duels?" Su, the beautiful woman, suggested. "Will that really work?" He didn't think it was a sound idea. With only one goal in mind—survival—the vampires would likely be too focused on escaping to simply stand still and face them calmly. Su Beauty nodded and said with conviction, "In Europe, dueling is a time-honored tradition. Though vampires may not be as proud as the bloodline, once they receive a duel request, refusing it would leave them feeling quite embarrassed!" Qin, the young noble, blinked rapidly, suggesting, "That's a solid plan. Then it's up to you—go ahead and arrange it. Just remember one thing: don't push too hard. If they show up, that's wonderful; if not, it's perfectly understandable!" "Rest assured, I'll make it happen," Su Beauty said with confidence. To be honest, Qin wasn't overly optimistic about the outcome. In eastern Europe, deep in a mountain region, there lies a highly secret cave—known only to a few, mostly vampires of King-level or above. Even the Kings hesitate to approach it, for it's said that a particularly powerful vampire has resided there for a very long time. The three Ghost Kings exchanged glances and nodded in unison, then took steady steps into the cave. The air inside was slightly dry. As vampire beings with night vision and among the higher-ranked Ghost Kings, they required no lighting. Huff... Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew through, and all three staggered, their knees buckling as they knelt down. The middle Ghost King spoke first, "Ancestor, we've disturbed your rest—this is truly inappropriate. We had no choice. If you don't come out soon, we'll be wiped out entirely!" "Exactly, Ancestor," added the other one, "Had it not been for this matter, we wouldn't have dared to disturb you at all." The cave returned to its previous stillness. The third Ghost King spoke with a tone of doubt, "Ancestor, haven't you passed away? We haven't seen you in so many years. By vampire lifespan standards, you must have been gone long before now." The other two had the same thoughts, though they hadn't voiced them. Heh... Another gust of chilly wind blew in, followed by a dark silhouette that swiftly rushed toward the ghost king who had just spoken. The black mist instantly engulfed him. Ah... The ghost king cried out in a piercing scream, while the other two were startled and quickly retreated to the side. A few seconds later, the black mist gradually faded, revealing a hunched figure dressed in a black cloak. At his feet lay the ghost king who had been attacked—now a lifeless corpse. "Hah... Who dares say I'm dead? The lifespan of the Ghost Emperor isn't something you mere mortals can guess!"
