261: He is the mysterious guest!

"If you want to fight, fight. Why so much nonsense? Do all you people from the Gentlemens Country like talking so much nonsense?" Chen Ming asked seriously.

"Alright! You forced my hand! There's a saying in your Great Xia: 'If you refuse a toast, you'll have to drink a forfeit.' I'll return that saying to you as is!"

Van Dyke transmitted the order to kill Chen Ming and Qin Hongyue's group into the minds of all the Vampire servants.

Baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, they all swarmed towards Chen Ming in a ring formation.

Just as Qin Hongyue was about to make her move, she saw a portal open in the sky, and a massive Undead Blood Knight fell from it.

Wielding the greatsword that had been dragging on the ground, it unleashed flashing lightning, stirring up a surging tide of thunder.

Boom!

In a crescent shape, it attacked the Vampires.

The Vampires, enhanced by Van Dyke's Vampire power, instantly turned to ash and their bodies rapidly dissipated upon merely touching a wisp of lightning as thin as hair.

In just the blink of an eye, not a single one of the dozens of Vampire servants remained.

The other dozens of Vampires saw that they still had a chance to approach Chen Ming and launch an attack.

Qin Hongyue clenched her five fingers, taking control of all their hearts.

With another forceful squeeze, all their hearts exploded, they paused for a moment, then fell straight down.

"This?!"

[Extracting...]

[Extraction successful! Congratulations to the host for obtaining new Undead Servants: Vampire +134!]

While Van Dyke was busy being surprised and caught off guard, Chen Ming completed the Undead Extraction of all the Vampires.

"This is impossible! How can you be so strong! There was clearly only an S-Rank difference between us." Van Dyke cried out in disbelief, thinking carefully about where things went wrong.

He did not see Chen Ming use any of the treasures he had just acquired from the Huangquan Auction.

'Wait! Is this big guy the Undead he summoned?'

'Does he have tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of these monsters under his command?'

Looking up at the Undead Blood Knight, Van Dyke's face was filled with the words "doubting life," and his neck was terribly sore.

"No! I don't accept this!" Van Dyke's body swelled, tearing his clothes, and thick fur grew on his formerly smooth skin.

He quickly transformed into a giant mutated bat, completely monstrous.

Chen Ming didn't care whether Van Dyke believed it or not.

He selected Van Dyke, opened the system panel, and used the SSS-grade Skill [Permanent Steal] on him.

Then he selected the SS-grade skill Van Dyke possessed: [Vampire].

Confirm Steal!

[Stealing...]

[Steal successful! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the SS-grade skill: Vampire!]

"Die... now?" Van Dyke's chaotic voice returned to normal.

His brows furrowed into a ' river' shape, looking at his shrinking body and the disappearing bat fur, wing membranes...

Van Dyke was full of confusion, "What's going on? Why did my skill become ineffective? Is it a bug?"

He took out his phone, opened Ten Thousand Realms Fishing, and then switched to his personal attribute panel.

Only then did Van Dyke discover that the three words "Vampire," which should have been in his skill list, had vanished without a trace.

"No! This is impossible! Why did my skill just disappear for no reason?" Van Dyke refused to believe it, frantically refreshing repeatedly.

"Are you looking for this?" Chen Ming didn't mind letting Van Dyke die with understanding.

Hearing this, Van Dyke looked over and discovered that two stark white fangs, only possessed by Vampires, had actually extended from Chen Ming's mouth.

Moreover, that length was something only Vampire ancestors were qualified to possess!

"You, what did you do? Are you a Vampire too? Or... did you steal the skill that rightfully belonged to me?" Van Dyke gradually understood everything.

"Do it." Chen Ming glanced at the Undead Blood Knight.

"Monster! You're the mon..."

Bang!

Before Van Dyke could finish speaking, his body exploded under a single strike from the Undead Blood Knight.

And the might of the thunder unleashed by the Undead Knight's sword pierced through the entire street, the blue light dazzlingly brilliant.

This scene attracted Yang Xiao's attention.

He rushed over immediately.

"It's you!" The saying "When enemies meet, their eyes turn red with hatred" was very suitable for Yang Xiao at this moment.

As he was about to say something else, Yang Xiao suddenly noticed a small gourd the size of a key pendant and a bronze mirror hanging from Yin Qianqian's waist.

'Those are the top-grade spirit artifacts that were just auctioned at the Huangquan Auction! How could they be on her?'

'Could it be!'

Yang Xiao reacted, "That mysterious guest in Sky Room No. 2 earlier, was it you?"

"The Ghost Emperor sent you to find me, right? It's fine, just tell him I'm here and tell him to hurry over." Chen Ming saved himself a trip; any bit of effort saved was good.

Hearing this, Yang Xiao was stunned.

'How could he be that mysterious guest? Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!'

Thinking that the best new Master he had wholeheartedly sought to serve was actually the sworn enemy who had stolen his fiancée.

An indescribable sense of loss filled Yang Xiao's heart and mind.

"What's wrong? Aren't you going to report your success to your Master?" Chen Ming asked, growing a little impatient.

"No need for such trouble, I'll come myself." Bai Mo's voice fell from mid-air.

Chen Ming and Qin Hongyue looked up and indeed saw Bai Mo floating in the air, standing with his hands behind his back, looking quite like the Ghost Emperor.

At this moment, he was looking down from above, scrutinizing all of them with a king-like gaze.

"I didn't expect you to be a human." Bai Mo said, quite surprised.

"Be sensible, obediently hand over all the treasures you acquired at the Huangquan Auction earlier, and I can spare your life." Bai Mo's words were full of arrogance.

He considered it a form of charity that he was giving Chen Ming and them a chance, hoping they would seize it.

In other words, if they didn't agree, they would die!

Everything he said, explicitly or implicitly, conveyed one meaning: 'You have no choice.'

"Your Majesty the Ghost Emperor, this humble one is willing to offer a small contribution for you." Yang Xiao drew the treasured sword he wore at his waist, deciding to continue serving Bai Mo.

"Yang Xiao, don't be so stubborn. You are no match for Master." Yin Qianqian, out of consideration for their past relationship, kindly advised Yang Xiao to stand on the right side and not waste his promising ghost life for nothing.

"Shut up! It's not your place, you lowly woman, to lecture me. From now on, you and I are completely severed!" Yang Xiao's eyes were bloodshot and filled with hatred.

"That's perfect. I originally didn't want to act because I saw you still had some connection with Qianqian, but since you said you're completely severed, I don't need to hold back anymore either." Chen Ming said, pleased to hear this.

"Who needs your mercy! A mere human isn't qualified to be arrogant here!" Yang Xiao took three steps as two, rushing quickly towards Chen Ming, the sharpness of the sword in his hand locked directly onto him.

He vowed to get revenge! To wash away the hatred in his heart!

He placed his hopes on the Ghost Emperor being present, hoping he would be his biggest backing.

Chen Ming saw through his thoughts and decided to let Yang Xiao experience despair properly before he died.

He ordered Qin Hongyue, "Take care of that guy in the sky."
