Chapter 250 - Trade
The figure was a woman with a voluptuous figure and dressed in noble robes from the Western middle ages.
The woman sported a typical western appearance. She has blonde hair and blue eyes. She looked extremely alluring and spoke fluent Huaxian.
“Never thought I’d find you here, Lilith,” Lu Xuan said. He recognized the woman, who looked very young, before him.
She was none other than one of the three elders of the Vampiric Empire—Lilith.
Among the three elders of the empire, Lilith’s rank was actually higher than Count Dracula’s.
In truth, Lilith was actually far more ancient than the Count as well.
Count Dracula achieved fame in Eastern Europe about 1,000 years ago, and he remained the most well-known and talked-about vampire even in modern times.
In actuality, however, he was only ranked third throughout the entire empire of vampires.
“I see that you have a death wish.”
Lu Xuan glared at her and burst with terrifying killing intent, his eyes set firmly on Lilith.
However, Lilith hardly cared and continued instead, “This is but a measure to ensure that the trade between us be carried out smoothly, as well as a means to prevent you from becoming an enemy of the empire.
“I’m afraid that what’s planted on your father will take but a thought from me to put his life in danger. But then again, if you were to just agree to not get in the way of the Vampiric Empire, you would never see the day where those things are used against him. Such an arrangement will work splendidly. It is both in your and our interests,” Lilith continued, not afraid of Lu Xuan making a move against her all of a sudden.
She had looked through all intelligence gathered on Lu Xuan, and all that information led her to speculate that Lu Xuan was someone who cared about his family. As such, there was no fear of him turning against her, so long as she had firm control over his family.
“Very well, very well.”
Lu Xuan suppressed his wrath and threw the Dark Bible to Lilith as he said, “Well, I’ve handed you the Dark Bible now, but if anything happens to my father, I swear I’ll raze your empire and every single one of you vamps.”
“Relax, I’m just trying to make sure the Dark Bible gets back to us in one piece. See you later, handsome.”
Lilith smiled as she turned around, disappearing before long.
His expression remained unnervingly cold.
“Lilith. Vampiric Empire.” Lu Xuan smirked and quipped, “Your days are numbered.”
Lu Xuan found his father, Lu Tianxiang, dazed and tied by the roadside, about ten minutes later.
He activated his Delusion-breaker Eyes and found several blood-colored bugs lying in wait all over his father’s body.
They were around his heart, atrium, artery, and other vital areas.
While they were so small that not even conventional machines would be able to detect them, there was no escaping Lu Xuan’s eyes.
“Blood bugs, eh?” Lu Xuan quipped coldly. He recognized those blood-colored bugs, and they were none other than the notorious blood bugs.
