Chapter 169 Slapping the Vampire's Face: The World's Top Man
When Leng Yuexing and Li Mingbo returned to the Vampire Association, the elders of the association were waiting for them.
Inside the main hall, the six elders of the Vampire Association sat on a high, curved platform, their faces solemn as they watched the two people enter the hall.
"Leng Yuexing, you mentioned in the message that the progenitor vampire has awakened, is that right?" one of the elders asked.
This is the information that Leng Yuexing reported to the Elders on her way back.
The news of Augustus's awakening will eventually be known to everyone. Rather than informing the Vampire Association at that time, it is better to report it to the Association from the beginning. In this way, Leng Yuexing can still keep track of the Association's activities.
After bowing respectfully, Leng Yuexing calmly nodded and said, "He has indeed awakened."
"How did you find out? And how can you be sure that person is definitely a progenitor vampire and not some other pureblood vampire?" another female elder asked.
Leng Yuexing looked up at the elder who had asked the question and said gently, "Because I was the one who woke him up."
"what?"
"how is this possible?"
How could you act so boldly!
The elders were all incredibly surprised upon hearing this; they couldn't believe what they were hearing.
Although vampires are very arrogant now, the elders have never wanted to wake up the progenitor vampire.
After all, the progenitor vampire is the king of the vampire race. If he awakens and remains as friendly to humans as before, that's fine. But if not, it will be a disaster for humanity.
The power of the progenitor vampires is far beyond what those mere purebloods can compare to.
"Give us a reason!" one of the oldest elders roared, his beard trembling as if he were about to faint.
Leng Yuexing lowered her eyelids and said in a low voice, "My wound is infected with the venom of a low-level vampire. If I don't have the blood of an ancestral vampire, I will turn into a vampire within three days."
As soon as Leng Yuexing finished speaking, the hall suddenly fell silent.
Standing to the side, Lee Myung-bak stared at Leng Yuexing in shock, his eyes filled with disbelief. "Boss?"
Except for last night, he and the boss have been together the whole time, and the boss has never shown the slightest pain on his face.
Within three days of being transformed into a vampire, a human will endure terrifying pain!
Has the eldest brother been enduring this pain for the past two days?
Thinking of this, Lee Myung-bak gasped, feeling as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over his head, chilling him to the bone.
The three elders who were asking questions on the platform lost their composure and ran down from it.
They pushed Lee Myung-bak aside and formed a circle around Leng Yuexing.
The female elder who had questioned Leng Yuexing earlier grabbed her shoulders and looked her over anxiously, asking, "Little Yuexing, where are you injured? How did you get hurt just from dealing with a few low-level vampires? Are you alright? How are you feeling now? Huh?"
The white-bearded elder pushed past the female elder, grabbed Leng Yuexing's wrist, and began to diagnose her directly.
After discovering that Leng Yuexing was now in good health, he patted his chest in relief, "Yuexing, why didn't you tell me you were injured? I would have sent more people with you to find the progenitor vampire!"
Another elder said with concern, "Little Moon Star, you must tell us first if anything happens, don't bear it all by yourself."
The three elders on the platform exchanged glances and rolled their eyes. Leng Yuexing was the apprentice of the three elders below, which was why they focused on Leng Yuexing's injury rather than the awakening of the progenitor vampire.
One of the white-haired elders coughed, and seeing that everyone was looking at him, he said loudly, "Since Yuexing is alright now, we should consider the matter of the awakening of the progenitor vampire."
"Moonstar, what is the attitude of the progenitor vampire now?"
Leng Yuexing recalled Augustus's previous reply and loudly retorted, "He said he would deal with those vampires who were wantonly hunting humans."
The long-bearded elder stroked his beard, pondered for a moment, and said, "In that case, the progenitor vampire will still maintain a friendly attitude towards humans, just as he did before he fell into slumber?"
Leng Yuexing nodded, "Yes."
"When you woke him from his slumber, did he do anything to you?" the female elder asked with some concern.
Thinking of what had happened between him and Augustus, Leng Yuexing shook his head and smiled, "He knew I wanted to ask for his blood to turn back into a human, so he generously gave it to me."
The elders found it unbelievable, but they had never seen the progenitor vampire.
Their knowledge of the progenitor vampire was limited to his immense power; they knew nothing else. Therefore, they did not know whether what Leng Yuexing said was true.
However, they felt that regardless of whether what Leng Yuexing said was true or not, the fact that the progenitor vampires were still friendly to humans was undeniable.
With that thought in mind, they finally felt relieved.
The elders then asked about some other things.
For example, Leng Yuexing answered questions such as how he knew the location where the progenitor vampire was sleeping, and whether he had seen other pureblood vampires.
As the questioning drew to a close, the long-bearded elder asked, "You said your wound was infected with the venom of a low-level vampire. Is this related to the vampire hunter you had locked up?"
Upon hearing this, Leng Yuexing's eyes turned cold. "Are you talking about Song Qianqian?"
"That seems to be the name," the white-bearded elder said, stroking his beard.
"After I was injured, he offered to bandage my wound. After that, I felt a burning pain all over my body, which then turned into excruciating pain."
As Leng Yuexing spoke, she took out a long, sharp tooth from her pocket, which was in a transparent plastic bag.
"These are teeth I found on the ground. I don't know if they're related to this."
The white-bearded elder took the tooth from Leng Yuexing's hand. "This is the tooth of a low-level vampire. There is still blood on the tooth. We'll know once it's examined."
Leng Yuexing nodded silently.
"Little Moon Star, what do you want to do with Song Qianqian?" the female elder asked from the side.
"Expel him from the Vampire Hunter Association and never hire him again," Leng Yuexing said coldly.
Although he wanted to get rid of Song Qianqian once and for all, Leng Yuexing knew that he couldn't execute Song Qianqian based on this incident alone.
Rather than punishing Song Qianqian in any other way, it would be better to expel him from the Vampire Association, so as not to hinder future cooperation between humans and vampires.
Leng Yuexing has decided to persuade the elders to cooperate with the vampires and jointly eliminate those low-level vampires.
As long as the low-level vampires disappear and the remaining vampires stop transforming into humans, then a superficial peace can still be maintained between humans and vampires.
After receiving Leng Yuexing's reply, the female elder summoned the attendant beside her and ordered him to expel Song Qianqian, who was imprisoned in the cell, from the Vampire Association.
She then whispered something in the attendant's ear, and the attendant obeyed and left the hall.
Leng Yuexing was somewhat surprised that the desired purpose was achieved so easily.
In the information the sapling gave him, he did not see any preferential treatment given to Coron by the elders of the Vampire Association.
Now it seems that those injuries may not have been instigated by the three elders in front of us, but rather by the three elders sitting on the platform.
The attendants who left as instructed by the female elder did not go directly to the dungeon where Song Qianqian was imprisoned.
He first went to the torture chamber to get a long whip, and then went to the dungeon.
The female elder's last words were: "Since he dared to hurt Xiaoyuexing, he should be prepared to be punished. Simply expelling him from the association is too lenient. He should be whipped fifty times, and then expelled!"
