That voice... Lai Mingjie knew that voice so well. He turned around and saw the ever-gorgeous owner of the Bloodvein Café. She was one of the few demons who were given the freedom to wield their powers under some conditions. Even though they were suppressed, they still had mostly half or a quarter of their former power. Came with it was glory... and responsibilities.
As the leading demon of the Crimson City, Botangca was responsible for growing the bloodvein. This bloodvein was given to the reincarnated demons so they could contain their bloodlust. Botangca had to make sure she had enough for everyone in Crimson City at least. She also needed to make sure it wouldn't be traded in the black market for humans to consume.
Most of all, she was the leader of the demonkind at the moment. It meant that she was to deal with immortals who would deliberately hunt in her turf. Unfortunately, she only had a small territory; and the streets of Crimson City weren't part of it.
