Fei Qi's expression changed rapidly. In the end, he suppressed his anger and walked down from the stage.
"Lord Xi Yin."
The other grand princes also had strange expressions, but they all stepped forward and bowed respectfully. "Lord Xi Yin."
When the crowd saw the grand princes' actions and heard how they addressed him, they quickly thought of a certain person and their expressions changed.
They all bowed, their attitudes respectful yet cautious. "Lord Xi Yin."
Ai Weiyi was dumbfounded. She had no idea what was going on.
'This man … is he a vampire too?'
"And here I thought you didn't recognize me." Xi Yin's lips curled into a disdainful smile.
"I wouldn't dare." Fei Qi lowered his head even further. 'Why is he here?' flooded his mind.
More importantly, he's with Mi Nai.
No wonder Ke Er gave up his authority so easily. So he was waiting for me here.
With Lord Xi Yin here, even the new queen would have to bow her head to him, let alone me.
He's the most powerful vampire in terms of seniority. Who would dare find trouble with him?
Aside from a few who knew the inside story, the rest of the vampire hunters were just as dumbfounded as Ai Wei.
Who is this man? He's so awesome! Just by standing there, all the vampires bowed.
There was a faint smile on Xi Yin's face. "Bring me the crown."
Fei Qi: "!!!"
'What does Lord Xi Yin want with the crown?'
"Lord Xi Yin …"
Xi Yin interrupted Fei Qi. "I don't want to repeat myself."
Fei Qi froze in place for a moment. Gritting his teeth, he turned around and brought the crown to Xi Yin.
Xi Yin's slender fingers took the crown. Under everyone's confused and shocked gazes, he placed it on Shi Sheng's head. "A gift for you."
He was willing to carry her to the throne.
Shi Sheng: "…" 'But I don't want it.
I only want you. '
Fei Qi and the other grand princes were stunned. 'The new queen has changed hands just like that?'
Fei Qi braced himself and said, "Lord Xi Yin … Her Majesty Ai Wei came because of the prophecy. Your actions will put the vampires to death."
"En." Xi Yin was focused on straightening Shi Sheng's crown as he casually responded.
He didn't care about the vampires' lives. He just wanted her to be happy.
"Very beautiful." Xi Yin praised her with a smile.
Shi Sheng took out a small mirror from somewhere and looked at himself in front of so many people.
She looked like an idiot. How was she beautiful?
Forget it, even if it was a dog's tail, he had to accept it.
There was a strange silence in the hall. The development of this matter was a bit strange.
"What? Do you want me to teach you how to greet the king?" Xi Yin narrowed his eyes and broke the silence. His tone was laced with traces of danger.
Fei Qi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. If he still had a sliver of hope earlier, then all that was left now was fear and trepidation.
After glancing at the Shi Sheng, he finally knelt down on one knee unwillingly. This was the highest form of etiquette among the Blood Breeds. Normally, this was only done during the coronation of the Blood Breed King.
"Greetings, Your Majesty Mi Nai."
The surrounding people all knelt down. "Greetings, Your Majesty Mi Nai."
"Greetings, Your Majesty Mi Nai!"
"In view of your previous unfriendliness, all of you can kneel." I'm not such a magnanimous person. I turned to Ke Er and said, "Godfather, please get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ke Er sighed inwardly. He hadn't expected Xi Yin to do this. If he had, he wouldn't have lowered his head to Fei Qi.
Xi Yin was much more powerful than that prophecy or whatever it was.
Fei Qi could only curse inwardly, not daring to move an inch.
He'd clearly planned everything out and was just one step away. But Xi Yin, who shouldn't have appeared here, had appeared.
And he'd even pushed Mi Nai to the throne.
Second Uncle Ai, who was standing among the vampires, had a dark expression on his face. They were just one step away, but such a huge mistake had occurred.
Only then did Ai Wei react and look at her second uncle.
That man's identity was so powerful that he could make all the vampires acknowledge Mi Nai with just one sentence.
Shi Sheng had no intention of becoming the Blood Breed King. The only reason he had them kneel was to avenge a personal grudge.
All that talk about separating public from private interests was nonsense. Revenge was the most important thing.
No matter how angry Fei Qi was, he still had to kneel. However, his gaze toward Shi Sheng was somewhat unfriendly.
"What are you looking at?" Shi Sheng took out his Iron Sword and stabbed it in front of Fei Qi. "Why don't we talk about the traitor?"
Fei Qi gritted his teeth. He looked at the gleaming Iron Sword in front of him and endured it. "Your Majesty, what will it take for you to believe me?"
"Why should I believe you?" Shi Sheng was amused. "You're nobody to me. Does it matter if I believe you or not?"
'Then does it matter if I'm the traitor or not?'
Fei Qi naturally didn't dare to say this.
Xi Yin stood to the side. That indulgent look on his face made it seem like he wouldn't stop her even if she wanted to kill him.
Even if he couldn't afford to offend her, couldn't he just hide?
Just like that, Shi Sheng inexplicably became the Blood Breed King. Ai Wei seemed to have been forgotten. Shi Sheng didn't even look her in the eye from start to finish.
Ai Wei felt like she'd been slapped dozens of times. Her cheeks burned with pain. She was a joke the entire time.
… …
Fei Qi's ancient castle.
Second Uncle Ai was furious. "Fei Qi, you didn't tell me that Xi Yin had awakened."
Fei Qi's expression wasn't good either. "I didn't know when he woke up either."
"He's a member of your race. You still don't know when he woke up." Second Uncle Ai grew more agitated as he spoke.
"Xi Yin rarely returns to the vampires. No one knows where he hibernates, so how would I know?" Fei Qi was furious. "Ai Qiang, watch your attitude."
He was still a prince. Even if they were working together, it didn't mean that Ai Qiang could speak to him like this.
The atmosphere between the two was somewhat tense. Ai Wei sat at the side, her face deathly pale. Her eyes were downcast, her thoughts unknown.
Ai Qiang probably knew that he'd been too agitated. After a moment of silence, he gradually calmed down. "What do we do now?"
"What do we do? What else can we do?" Fei Qi sneered. "With Xi Yin here, do you think I'd dare to do anything?"
They'd personally witnessed that man's strength. Wasn't provoking him the same as digging their own graves?
"Then we're just going to give up on the plan?" Ai Qiang's face alternated between pale and pale.
Fei Qi fell silent. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something. "You said that person disappeared."
Ai Qiang didn't know why Fei Qi had suddenly changed the topic, but he still suppressed his anger and replied, "I only heard about it. I'm not sure."
He wasn't a core member of the vampire hunters, so he had no way of knowing about such a major matter.
He'd only overheard Du Jue's men discussing the discovery of a tomb in the northern suburbs of the city. It was very likely that person was buried there.
"If that person disappeared, it means that someone might want to make a move. We might still have a chance." Fei Qi's eyes were filled with calculation.
Fei Qi leaned over and whispered a few words into Ai Qiang's ear. Ai Qiang narrowed his eyes and glanced in Ai Wei's direction.
"This is the only way. Think about it yourself." Fei Qi patted Ai Qiang's shoulder and turned to leave the room, leaving Ai Qiang and Ai Wei alone.
