Chapter 515: Chapter 0515: The Thorny Trouble
Lancelot’s face was filled with horror, an icy chill of murderous aura, deep and domineering oppression, causing his soul to feel a bout of palpitations and fear!
Had he really been defeated just like that?
Unable to withstand even a single move from the Marshal!
Had he truly reached that legendary realm, one that only the President and the others could rival?
In the European underground world, there are ten massive forces, known as the ten great pinnacle overlords!
Ye Xunhuan was one of them, and so was the President of the Dark Council; moreover, every President of such an ancient existence as the Dark Council was almost always one of the overlords of the underworld!
It was by killing both the Charm King and the Charm Queen that Ye Xunhuan rose to become a pinnacle overlord, becoming one of the ten titans!
Lancelot had thought that Ye Xunhuan had just stumbled upon dogshit luck, but now he was clear that it was Ye Xunhuan’s own strength that made him one of the ten titans, not luck!
Because the President of the Dark Council also took him down with a single move.
Now Ye Xunhuan had done it with a single move as well.
If Ye Xunhuan and the President of the Dark Council were not on the same level, how could he possibly defeat him with one move!
But now was clearly not the time to think about these things; at this moment, Lancelot’s heart was completely filled with a sense of terror.
The sharp longsword was placed on his neck, and if Ye Xunhuan were to merely give it a light swing, Lancelot did not doubt that the blade in Ye Xunhuan’s hand could chop off his head.
Even the life force of the vampires, strong as it might be, could not possibly survive that.
"I advise you not to resist, my sword is far quicker than your speed!" Ye Xunhuan warned, "Although vampires are strong, their strength is still somewhat affected under the sunlight, not to mention you were never my opponent to begin with, let alone when your strength is suppressed!"
Vampires, also known as bloodsuckers, are not as afraid of sunlight as the legends suggest, or rather, they can’t be exposed to sunlight.
They are not afraid of sunlight at all, only their strength will be affected to some extent, but in the night, they can be extremely powerful.
When God closes a door, He opens a window; this saying applies perfectly to the vampires.
"Mar... Marshal!" Lancelot stifled the fear inside and said, "If you kill me, Loren might kill your wife..."
Before Lancelot could finish speaking, the blade in Ye Xunhuan’s hand suddenly sliced a streak across Lancelot’s neck, and blood started oozing out!
This slight movement from Ye Xunhuan made Lancelot’s fear surge uncontrollably, like a breached dam, to the point where the muscles at the corner of his eyes began to twitch uncontrollably.
"Mar... Marshal..."
"You’re threatening me again!" Ye Xunhuan said expressionlessly.
Seeing Ye Xunhuan’s eyes, cold and sharp as a knife, Lancelot swallowed nervously, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat.
"I really dislike being threatened by others," Ye Xunhuan said coldly, "And do you really think your life is comparable to my wife’s?"
"The Taiji Seal is still in my hands. If I don’t hand over the Taiji Seal, at most they can torture my wife, kill her, do you think that’s possible?" 𝔫𝖔𝔳𝔭𝔲𝔟.𝖈𝔬𝔪
For a moment, Lancelot had no idea what to say.
Because everything Ye Xunhuan said was the truth; as long as the Taiji Seal remained in their hands, Qiu Ruoxi would not be in any real danger.
On the other hand, if he handed over the Taiji Seal, then everything would become uncertain.
At this moment, facing Ye Xunhuan, Lancelot felt an impulse of mental collapse; this guy was not only powerfully frightening, but also incredibly smart.
"Don’t be too nervous, rest assured, I won’t kill you..."
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Lancelot’s heart, which had been in his throat, slowly sank back into his stomach.
Yet, in the next moment, Ye Xunhuan’s words made his heart, which he had just put back, leap back into his throat.
"However, you must pay the price for this!"
As the final word fell, the blade Ye Xunhuan held against Lancelot’s neck trembled and then chopped down towards his shoulder!
"Thud!"
The blade cleanly severed one of Lancelot’s arms, and blood immediately streamed out, but it did not spurt like a fountain as it might from an ordinary person, and in just an instant, the bleeding stopped and the wound seemed to heal!
To this, Ye Xunhuan showed no surprise; he knew of the vampires’ self-healing ability.
The intense pain caused Lancelot to let out a muffled groan of agony.
After Ye Xunhuan severed one of Lancelot’s arms, the longsword in his hand suddenly vanished: "I hope that arm of yours has a chance to grow back!"
The vampires’ self-healing wasn’t limited to wound repair; it also extended to limb regeneration, although this depended on one’s power level.
From what Ye Xunhuan knew, for a vampire to regenerate a limb, they had to possess at least the strength of a vampire prince.
A prince was equivalent to an Innate pinnacle expert in Huaxia, a realm extremely difficult to enter, rumored to be accessible only through heritage.
Lancelot, with a venomous look on his face, watched Ye Xunhuan. At present, he was merely an earl-level in strength, on par with the Innate peak realm of Huaxia martial artists!
Above him, there were still the ranks of marquis and duke to aspire to, and becoming a marquis or an earl was not an easy feat, to say nothing of a prince.
At that moment, Lancelot wished nothing more than to slay Ye Xunhuan on the spot to avenge his severed arm, but he was also fully aware that he was no match for Ye Xunhuan and couldn’t kill him!
"Marshal, you will regret your actions!"
"Do you not want your other arm either?"
After hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Lancelot couldn’t help shivering and his gaze towards Ye Xunhuan became even more frightened and fearful.
"Take me to Loren right now," Ye Xunhuan demanded coldly, "and don’t try any tricks on me, or I’ll show you why death is such a luxury!"
"I can take you to Loren, but Marshal, I advise you to bring the Taiji Seal with you!"
"That’s none of your concern!"
Lancelot said nothing more, bent down to pick up the arm that Ye Xunhuan had chopped off from the ground, and then started stepping away, preparing to leave the rooftop.
Seeing this, Ye Xunhuan glanced at He Sichan, who had been left forgotten at one side, and said, "Make your own way back later!"
At this moment, He Sichan’s face was pale, her watery, alluring eyes filled with undeniable fear.
In her life, she had never encountered a scene like this. Coming across such an event now, would she not be terrified?
Moreover, the whole thing felt like a dream, unbelievable, yet it was happening right before her!
Ye Xunhuan didn’t pay much attention to He Sichan. What he needed to do now was to find Qiu Ruoxi and the individuals from the Dark Council. It was uncertain whether the head of the Dark Council had appeared yet.
If the head of the Dark Council was present, then the situation would become extremely troublesome!
