Chapter 137: Chapter 136 Fierce Battle with the Blood Clan
At that mont, Ye Fan spoke again, "However, obtaining the dark green Crystal Stone will require ticulous planning. Besides, we don’t even know where these vampires are hiding."
The Shadow Demon Queen replied, "I may not know where they’re hiding, but I do know what they want the dark green Crystal Stone for."
"Oh?" Ye Fan looked at the Shadow Demon Queen questioningly.
"They want to revive their Prince!" the Shadow Demon Queen explained. "From the very first generation of ancient vampires, each has had a Prince. Their most recent one was buried here in Europe, which is why they need the dark green Crystal Stone to revive him!"
Ye Fan said, "If that’s the case, we can travel through the night to set up a trap at the Prince’s Tomb. We can ambush them there and seize the dark green Crystal Stone!"
The Shadow Demon Queen nodded in agreent. Ye Fan’s plan was a good one. Since vampires couldn’t travel during the day, they had more than enough ti. The two set out imdiately, heading for the Prince’s Tomb.
For Ye Fan and the Shadow Demon Queen, the dark green Crystal Stone was a lifeline. Now, however, it also held a much greater significance. If this vampire Prince were to be revived, it would undoubtedly unleash a catastrophe across Europe. After all, there was once an era in European history when vampires ruled. Ye Fan, however, wasn’t thinking about saving the world. He only wanted to save the people he cared about. That was all.
「Three days later...」
The pair arrived at the Prince’s Tomb, which was located within a Vampire Church. Inside lay a huge coffin, and the entire place felt gloomy, dark, and filled with a chaotic aura.
Ye Fan asked, "Should we just kill this thing now? Make sure it stays dead for good."
"No, let’s not alert anyone yet!" the Shadow Demon Queen cautioned. "Causing a disturbance now would be a disaster for us."
Once all the traps were set, they concealed themselves in the shadows and waited for the vampires to walk right into them.
「A day later...」
In the dead of night, Ye Fan and the Shadow Demon Queen finally saw the vampires arrive. About thirty vampires were gathered around the coffin when their leader, the Vampire Commander, appeared. He held the dark green Crystal Stone and approached the sarcophagus, chanting an eerie incantation.
At that mont, Ye Fan triggered the trap. Dozens of Mithril-tipped arrows instantly shot down, striking the vampires. With agonizing wails, they were reduced to desiccated husks.
The enraged Vampire Commander let out a roar, and the force of his cry shattered the ancient chandeliers hanging nearby. Ye Fan made his move, lunging forward with a Mithril dagger and slashing down at the Vampire Commander. The dagger pierced clean through the commander’s body, but he seed completely unaffected, only growing more terrifying.
He bared his fangs and lunged, trying to drain Ye Fan’s blood. Ye Fan swiftly dodged and kicked the commander, sending him flying back into two stone pillars. The pillars crumbled, but he was unhard. Possessing an unkillable body, such attacks posed no threat to him at all. His power far exceeded Ye Fan’s expectations.
The Shadow Demon Queen joined the attack, plunging Mithril arrows into the Vampire Commander, but he remained completely unfazed. They were using thods specifically ant for vampires, but they never imagined they would be so ineffective against this commander.
The Vampire Commander threw a punch, hitting the Shadow Demon Queen and sending her flying into a stone wall. Pain wracked her body, and she couldn’t get back up. Seeing this, Ye Fan charged forward to battle the Vampire Commander, but unfortunately, none of his attacks had any effect. Instead, he was struck and sent crashing against the massive coffin.
The enraged Vampire Commander strode toward Ye Fan, intending to finish him off. Just then, silvery moonlight pierced through the gloom. The commander froze. He took out the dark green Crystal Stone and began chanting a terrifying incantation.
Instantly, a gale whipped through the church, howling without end. They didn’t know what was happening, but they were certain it was related to the commander’s incantation. As the dreadful words of the spell filled the air, the massive coffin lid began to tremble.
The Shadow Demon Queen’s face turned deathly pale. "He’s awakening the ancient Prince!" she cried out to Ye Fan. "We can’t let him succeed!"
She tried to stand and stop him, but she couldn’t move. All she could do was watch helplessly as the dark green Crystal Stone floated toward the huge coffin. An exhilarated smile spread across the Vampire Commander’s face. This was the mont he had painstakingly waited for. Once the Prince was revived, their era would surely return.
But just as the dark green Crystal Stone was about to land on the coffin, a hand snatched it from the air. The howling wind imdiately ceased. Everything fell silent, and even the silver moonlight vanished.
The commander looked up furiously. It was Ye Fan. He held the dark green Crystal Stone and declared, "As long as I’m here, you will not succeed!"
Enraged, the Vampire Commander lunged at Ye Fan, who tossed the dark green Crystal Stone to the Shadow Demon Queen. She forced herself to her feet and caught it.
Then, Ye Fan’s voice turned cold. "I’ll show you just what makes the King of Heaven so special!"
Ye Fan unleashed his fury, rushing forward to battle the Vampire Commander. His fists morphed into Dragon Claws, striking with a speed and power that could shatter mountains. He clawed at the Vampire Commander, tearing away a large chunk of flesh, but that was far from the end. Ye Fan drove his other claw into the commander’s abdon. With a great roar, he tore with all his might, shockingly ripping the Vampire Commander in two.
The scene was horrifying. Blood splattered across the Shadow Demon Queen.
Is this the power of the King of Heaven? The Shadow Demon Queen was stunned. I always thought the King of Heaven ranked first among the Seven Kings simply because he could tap into demonic power. But now I see he possesses a unique strength all his own. A power that cos from his self-created Dragon Battle Chronicles.
The church fell silent. Ye Fan helped the Shadow Demon Queen up, and they left.
As they walked, the Shadow Demon Queen said to him, "That was... terrifying."
"Terrifying? I thought it was just an ordinary move." One must be modest when the situation calls for it; that was a lesson Ye Fan had learned. And right now, he was being very modest.
He added, "Now that you have the dark green Crystal Stone, you can recover."
"Yes... Thank you," the Shadow Demon Queen said, her voice filled with gratitude.
Ye Fan thought he had misheard. He never expected the Shadow Demon Queen to thank him. Her attitude had always been demanding, never grateful.
Ye Fan smiled. "I have to say, I’m not quite used to this side of you."
"Drop dead!"
"Ah!"
A faint, bashful blush appeared on the beautiful face of the Shadow Demon Queen, the infamous Witch of the International Dark World.
