"— Her Majesty Ai Wei."
As Fei Qi spoke, the lights in the castle dimmed, leaving only the main entrance and the red-carpeted path leading to the stage.
Under the confused, curious, and complicated gazes of the crowd, a petite figure appeared at the main entrance.
She was dressed in an intricate gown with attendants following behind her. The light shone on her, making her look magnificent.
Ai Wei looked a little nervous, walking very slowly.
Shi Sheng stood at the front. Her simple black gown made her stand out among the luxurious gowns.
Ai Wei spotted her immediately.
Probably because she didn't want to embarrass herself in front of Shi Sheng, she puffed out her chest and followed the light to the stage.
When she passed by Shi Sheng, she purposely slowed down her pace.
Just yesterday, when Ai Wei found out about Ai Wei's noble status, she'd felt an indescribable feeling.
But today, Ai Wei's status was higher than hers.
This was the so-called "the river flows east for thirty years, then the river flows west for thirty years."
Shi Sheng expressionlessly watched as Ai Wei proudly walked past her.
'I knew it was her.
The female lead is a mystical creature who has fortuitous encounters no matter where she goes.
'What are you so proud of?!
Even I would be scared if I were to be hung up. '
The other vampires were in a flurry of discussion. Some acknowledged her status, while others objected.
Ai Wei became nervous again when she heard the commotion below. She'd never been in such a big situation before. Fortunately, Fei Qi was there to help her, so she didn't have stage fright.
"Now that the new queen has been appointed, according to the rules, the authority in the hands of the various princes should be redistributed to Her Majesty." Fei Qi's gaze intentionally swept towards Ke Er.
Ke Er looked at him coldly. 'How long has Fei Qi been planning this?
He was the first to support the new queen. The new queen, who didn't know anything, would naturally listen to him. When the time came, all the authority would be in Fei Qi's hands. The new queen would be nothing more than a puppet. The true ruler would still be Fei Qi.
The moment he said this, the crowd exploded. They'd held power for a hundred years. How could they accept it if they suddenly had to hand it over?
There were also some who had the same thoughts as Ke Er.
But now, most of them believed that this young queen would bring them a new lease of life. If they rashly objected, they'd definitely be attacked by these people.
The wise vampires chose to keep their mouths shut.
When Ai Wei saw that a fight was about to break out below, she subconsciously glanced at Fei Qi.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. You're now the ruler of the Blood Race. They won't dare to disobey you. Fei Qi comforted Ai Wei.
"Tell them that you will distribute the rights fairly and that you still need their support."
"Will they really listen to me?" How could she not be nervous when she was suddenly promoted from an ordinary person to a vampire king?
"I will." Fitch nodded seriously.
Ai Wei glanced at the people below. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Zuo Lie, who was standing in the middle of the crowd, silently watching her. Her heart suddenly began to thump.
She was now the Queen of the Blood Kindred. She was the same as Zuo Lie. Did that mean that she could be with him?
But …
Not long ago, she had hated the vampires so much, but now, she had become the queen of the vampires.
Now that things had come to this, she had no way out. She could only brace herself and move forward.
Ai Wei took a deep breath. "I …"
He couldn't bring himself to say it.
Ai Wei tugged at her skirt. 'What should I do? I can't bring myself to say it.'
Fei Qi could probably tell that Ai Wei was nervous. "Quiet. What's with all the commotion?"
Due to Fei Qi's status, the crowd immediately quieted down.
Ai Wei grew increasingly nervous as more and more people watched her. She was even worse off than the noisy crowd from before.
Fei Qi was a little exasperated. He lowered his voice and reminded her, "Your Majesty, say something."
'I can't say anything!'
Just as Ai Wei was about to cry, she suddenly saw the mocking smile on Shi Sheng's face. There was probably a kind of motivation called unwillingness to admit defeat and jealousy.
She clenched her teeth. "I know everyone is doubting me, but I didn't want this to happen. I'm just an ordinary university student. I was completely unprepared for this to happen."
Fei Qi's expression changed. 'What nonsense is this girl spouting?'
Just as he was about to tell her to shut up, her tone changed. "But since it's already become a reality, I won't run away from it. I'll study hard. I hope everyone can support me."
Fei Qi sighed in relief. Although she hadn't said it very well, it could still be considered sincere. If she had said it too well, it would have sounded more like a rehearsal. It would have raised suspicions.
Ai Wei's down-to-earth speech unexpectedly gained a lot of support.
The princes who sided with Fei Qi directly handed over their authority.
If there was a first, there would be a second.
The new king had Fei Qi's support. None of them had as much authority as Fei Qi, not to mention the fact that the new king also had the title of having a prophecy come true.
In the end, only Ke Er was left among the princes.
"Godfather, if you don't want to hand it over, then so be it." Shi Sheng looked at Ke Er with a faint smile on his face, but his tone was extremely arrogant.
The hall was very quiet right now. Many people had heard Shi Sheng's words.
"Mi Nai, what are you planning? Are you rebelling?" Fei Qi was most worried about this troublemaker.
Not a single person he'd sent out last night had returned. This morning, he'd only found the exploded car and the murdered vampires.
"If I wanted to rebel, you'd be lying on the ground already." Shi Sheng laughed arrogantly.
"Forget it. I've been tired after all these years." Ke Er shook his head at Shi Sheng. 'Since Fei Qi wants it, I'll give it to him.'
He'd long since stopped caring about these trivial matters.
When Fei Qi heard Ke Er's words, he didn't even have time to pursue Shi Sheng's rebellious words.
Fei Qi hadn't expected things to go so smoothly. He looked very happy.
Next, it was time for the various clans to get to know the new king.
The vampire hunters also sent out a representative to give a simple congratulatory speech.
They'd only been invited to witness the birth of the new king, so they had no right to interfere with who was chosen.
The last step was for Ai Wei to accept the crown representing the vampire king.
Ai Wei watched as Fei Qi walked towards her with the crown in his hands. The nervousness in her eyes finally receded a little.
She was the vampire king. In the future, that woman Mi Nai would have to bow respectfully whenever she saw her.
Just as Ai Wei was about to accept the crown representing the vampire king, Xi Yin suddenly walked out.
Shi Sheng was stunned by Xi Yin's actions.
"Xi Yin, what are you doing?" Shi Sheng followed after him.
Her voice drew everyone's attention to them.
Xi Yin rubbed Shi Sheng's head. "Didn't I say I was going to give you a present yesterday?"
Shi Sheng, "…" He did say that, but she didn't take it to heart at all.
This guy can't be thinking of killing all the vampires, right?
It's such a great day, don't be so bloody.
I'm still a baby.
"Xi Yin …" Fei Qi froze when he saw the person who'd stepped out.
'Why is he here?'
Yesterday, Xi Yin had been standing in a corner without showing his face. Today, his head was lowered, so it wasn't strange that Fei Qi hadn't noticed him.
But now that he'd stepped out, if he still couldn't recognize him, then he'd have lived in vain.
