"Is this the human princess? I didn't expect her to be so beautiful. No wonder that old man, Arnia, chose to hold a banquet for her."
"Yeah, that old lecher, Arnia, has always had a good eye."
"So what if she's beautiful? In the end, it's still hard to escape aging and death," someone mocked, his tone slowly showing his contempt for humans and his pride as a blood breed.
"How is that possible? That fellow, Arnia, will definitely turn her into a blood breed in the end." Someone mocked the young man's short-sightedness.
"Turn her into a blood breed? Does this mean that the old fellow hasn't enjoyed her blood yet?" Someone let out a sinister laugh.
"I advise you to put away your petty thoughts. Do you think that old fellow, Arnia, only likes that woman for her beauty?"
The few of them looked at him in surprise, only to see that man gulp down the liquid in the cup in one gulp. Then, he continued, "Taking into account that old lecher's personality, if he fancied something, he would immediately enjoy it. There's no need to make such a big fuss over this banquet. Take a closer look at that human princess."
"Mm! She's looking around, as if she's looking for something?"
"Could it be that she's looking for humans?"
"Looking for humans among vampires? That's a joke. Could it be that she's still hoping for the knights to come and save her? Even the priests of the church would die here."
"Sigh! What are you guys thinking? Did I tell you to look with your eyes? Close your eyes, and use your spiritual power to sense it." The person who spoke just now could not take it anymore.
"Eh? How could this be!"
"I can't sense it, what in the world is this..."
"If I'm not wrong, that human's constitution is very special, or her spiritual power is very special, so it's very difficult to sense it. This is the reason why that old fellow, Arnia, went through so much trouble."
"Don't forget, that the old fellow has mastered a secret method to increase spiritual power. If he really studies that human's abnormality thoroughly, then he'll be even harder to deal with."
On the other hand, Anna was indeed looking around, trying to find the young man from back then. She still had the blood red dagger that the young man had given her. She clutched it in her hands.
However, she still did not find his figure anywhere. It was likely that he had already left. However, this was also very normal. According to what the young man had said, he had only given her a choice, but he would not make it for her.
Mu En saw Anna's every move.
In this hall, perhaps only Mu En knew what she was looking for, but of course, she could not find it. The current Mu En was just a short old man hiding in a corner.
He was also very curious about what kind of choice the human princess would make.
Under normal circumstances, most people would have lost their courage upon seeing this. Even if Anna did not dare to make a move in the end, this was normal.
At that time, he only had a sudden idea. He thought of it as adding a little seasoning to this boring banquet.
"It's time!" Mu En looked in the direction of the door and muttered to himself.
As soon as Mu En finished speaking, a loud sound came from under the castle. The entire castle shook.
Everyone was shocked by what had happened. When they felt the sound coming from under the castle, Arnia's expression changed drastically. Only he knew what this meant.
As the restrictions had been completely destroyed by Mu En, many people immediately released their spiritual power, trying to find out what had happened underground.
However, an extremely large amount of spiritual power swept through the entire hall and went straight for the basement of the castle. Along the way, it shattered the spiritual power of others.
The people in the hall were mentally unstable from the impact of this volume of spiritual power. Some people even let out a miserable cry, and their spiritual senses were severely injured.
"Is this the strength of this old guy?"
"This spiritual power is really terrifyingly strong, but what is this sound coming from underground?"
"Who am I to ask? The spiritual power that I released just now was dispersed by that old guy, how would I know what happened below?"
Someone looked at the situation in the hall and frowned. "You are not the only one. I guess the people in the hall who released their spiritual power were all affected by that guy's overbearing spiritual power."
"Is that guy so overbearing?"
"Otherwise, what do you think? It also means that there are indeed some things underground that people want to keep hidden. It seems that there is a very important secret hidden under this castle."
Arnia's spiritual power went underground. When he saw the empty warehouse, his entire face was livid with anger, and his chin could not help but tremble.
Further down, he came to the lowest level. The pool of blood was gone, and all his children were gone, including the coffin that he had carefully made for training.
Who was It? Who did all this? Arnia could not stop trembling. He completely let his majestic spiritual power spread out and surround the entire castle.
Suddenly, he felt that something had been sent into his heart.
Mu En, who was in the corner, watched in surprise.
Anna did not react to the sound coming from underground, and when Arnia changed drastically, she still had not made her move.
He thought that the human princess had given up.
He did not expect her to make a move now.
Even Mu En could not help but admire her timing. It could be said that at this time, Arnia was at his most focused, or it could be said that he was at his most careless.
At this moment, Arnia was extending all of his spirit to envelop the entire castle. He would be able to detect the slightest abnormality.
However, only the person closest to him, the existence that his spirit could not sense, had gone completely unnoticed by him.
He only reacted when the dagger was pushed into his heart. However, at this moment, the dagger actually turned into fresh blood and surged into his blood vessels, fusing with the blood in his body.
It began to corrupt his blood from the inside.
"You lowly human, how dare you..."
Anna staggered back, and a huge force came at her. Anna was thrown up high like a kite with a broken string, and then she fell to the ground.
Someone discovered this flurry of activity.
"What's going on?"
"Count Arnia was actually injured? And by a human."
"How did she hurt the count?"
"Apparently, she was seen pulling out a blood red dagger from her bosom."
