William pulled open a book on the bookshelf on the second floor. The bookshelf's door immediately slid to the side, revealing a secret room inside.
"Mr. Li, please come in."
William made an inviting gesture.
Li Fan did not hesitate and directly walked into the secret room. William followed behind, and the bookshelf slowly closed.
Inside was a very spacious room, about 50 square meters. There were only two simple sofas inside, which seemed to be used for secret meetings.
"Mr. William, you're prepared."
Li Fan casually sat on the sofa.
"Preparation is another matter. I feel that Mr. Li's courage is indeed not small."
William took out a bottle of fine wine from a small wine cabinet at the side and poured half a cup for the two of them.
"No matter what, this is also the enemy's place. You actually entered this secret room without any scruples. Are you really not afraid that I'll set you up? "
"No."
Li Fan took a sip of this red wine. It was indeed much better than the bottle outside. Looks like this William is also a wine lover. Unfortunately, I don't understand wine and can't feel anything from it.
"It doesn't matter what tricks you have. Once I feel danger, I'll kill everyone here."
"You're indeed different from ordinary people."
William sized up Li Fan a few more times, "It's very convenient to talk here. Using your Chinese words, there's no harm in speaking."
"Looks like you have a good understanding of Chinese culture."
Hearing William speak to him in fluent Chinese, Li Fan was somewhat surprised.
"I'm different from the traditional Parker family. I like Chinese culture."
William Parker lightly tapped the table with his fingers and said slowly, "The Parker family is already old. They are high and mighty, but they can't see the current situation. The world is no longer centered around the United States. The speed of China's development has shocked everyone. The Parker family has always wanted to suppress China's development, but we've all seen that it's impossible. "
William looked at Li Fan, "But now, they're doing quite well. Even your martial arts world has been destroyed, isn't it?"
"… …"
Li Fan was silent for a moment. What William said was right.
The destruction of the Huaxia martial arts world was all caused by the agreement between the Huaxia Dove Faction and the United States Empire. If it weren't for the fact that the Dragon God No. 1 was about to ascend to the heavens, perhaps China would really be restrained by the United States in the future. The battle between Huaxia's hawks and doves was just as fierce.
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
Li Fan looked at William. "The Parker family looks down on your bloodline. No matter how hard you work, they won't appreciate it. Am I right?"
"That's right."
William nodded. In this study room, the two of them did not hide anything. They said whatever they wanted to say.
"However, I don't have the ability to go against them."
William sighed. "I'm just a mixed-blood. I'm not that strong."
"Are you … really vampires?"
Although it was presumptuous of him, he still had to make things clear.
"There's no harm in saying it. We are."
William said without hesitation, "The Parker Family has existed for more than a thousand years. We came from the United Kingdom and were the first to log into this place. From the War of Independence to the Civil War, World War I, World War II … It can be said that our family was behind all these wars. "
"Endless life … Then how long have you lived?"
"I haven't lived for long. Just 30 years."
William laughed. "I'm the son of Tham Parker and an ordinary human girl. I'm a mixed-blood. Only when I'm 25 years old will I awaken my vampire abilities. As for the Liu Wan Wan that you know, she's going to be 25 soon. According to the family rules, when she turns 25, she must return home to complete the blood pact. "
"But she's not 25 this year, right?"
Li Fan frowned.
"Yes, she's not 25 yet. But a while ago, when an elder of the Parker Family came to China, he found out that she's no longer a virgin! "
"…"
Li Fan was slightly speechless.
"You can even find out that?"
"Us vampires have a unique ability. We can tell by the smell of blood."
William's words made Li Fan feel strange. This vampire had such an ability!
"Don't be too curious. After all, we vampires love the blood of virgins the most."
William stretched out his hand and pointed at a bottle of red wine on the wine cabinet. But the color of the red wine was a bit special. It seemed to be thicker.
"This is blood?"
"The blood of virgins."
William said, "I raised a blood thrall. Usually, when she goes out, I will store some of her blood. When I need it, I will take it out to taste."
Vampires … Blood thrall …
Li Fan felt as if he had opened the door to a whole new world.
"Without a blood thrall, vampires would have no choice but to go out to hunt. However, only the weakest blood fiends will go out to hunt. "
"Blood fiends?"
"Just some guys who failed to convert vampires. They're not worth mentioning."
William seemed to be disgusted with these guys.
"In short, to the Parker Family, impure blood is a big taboo! I'm the same as Liu Wan Wan, an illegitimate child who can't be seen. "
William continued, "To us illegitimate children, it's already a disgrace to the Parker Family. And Liu Wan Wan actually had an affair with another human. Therefore, she was summoned back to the family in advance and will be punished by the family. "
"What punishment?"
Li Fan's head was jumping. He was worried about Liu Wan Wan's safety. If anything happened to her, he would definitely massacre the Parker Family!
"I also don't know, but it's not the right time yet. To the Parker Family, tradition is the most important thing. And according to tradition, the punishment for the mixed blood in the family must be when the moon hides. "
"In other words, it's the first day of the first month?"
The first day of the first month in China is the new moon.
"Yes, you're talking about your Chinese lunar calendar, right?"
William nodded, "It's that date. If I calculate it, there's about seven or eight days left?"
"Six days."
Li Fan glanced at his phone. The time left for him was indeed not much.
"William, if you help me save Liu Wan Wan, I will help you pave the road to the top. You're right, the Parker Family is too traditional. They can't keep up with this era. This family should be managed by you. "
"My friend, I really like your way of thinking. But the Parker Family isn't as simple as you think. This family has developed for thousands of years. From the top to the bottom, there are many experts. Let's not talk about others, let's talk about Al Parker. This is our Parker Family's first generation patriarch, a blood race prince! He and the previous four generations of patriarchs have already retired and become the four big princes of the family. The fifth generation patriarch is also Liu Wan Wan's father, Peter Parker. He controls the current Parker Family and is even a grand duke! "
