"I told you that you will need me sooner or later." Shu Hezhen uttered as he sat in the car with Chen Shujin and Lu Hongxue.

"I didn't expect that Yinlui was going to help him like this." As he said, Chen Shujin's face darkened, his eyes glowering in anger.

"Your Majesty, the Young Master is still young and not as thorough as you are. The hunters have always been crafty and the past leader was a man who didn't stick to his words. I just don't understand why he didn't tell you anything before meeting the hunters." Upon Lu Hongxue's normal careless face, she knitted her brows as she said this.

"Hongxue is correct. Shujin, you should be the closest to Zhuhei so why would he not tell you such an important matter? There must be someone who had misled him and fooled him." Shu Hezhen shook his head.

Chen Shujin didn't say anything. He was also a bit hesitant, confused about why Wen Zhuhei decided to take this route instead of speaking with him first. Maybe he had pushed him too hard, or his act was too much for Wen Zhuhei to bear in the end and so he couldn't help but be angry at himself.

No matter what, Wen Zhuhei was still only 18, the boy would have his own mistakes and moments like this was to be expected. The boy did appear to be too mature for his own age and Chen Shujin knew well about how he was a wolf in sheep skin.

Now that Chen Shujin knew that Li Yinlui had told Wen Zhuhei and also given him help, he just hoped that nothing would happen to him. Thinking this, Chen Shujin clenched his hand as his face grew even colder.

"Your Majesty, I assure you that the Young Master will be safe. If Yinlui is there, he should be protected at all cost." Lu Hongxue was able to tell that Chen Shujin's mood was very bad so she spoke some words of comfort.

Chen Shujin didn't say anything even with Lu Hongxue's words. If Fei Shang was here, his worry would be lifted but he wasn't.

"Tell all the vampires to gather around the headquarter. I will check for myself and confront Zhuhei."

Wen Zhuhei could feel it, something was wrong. There was something wrong about the atmosphere, even as Qi Wuliao seemed very calm and serious. No, this feeling was coming from somewhere near him.

"Your Majesty?" Qi Wuliao spoke up upon noticing the expression on Wen Zhuhei's face.

"You have something you're not telling me." Wen Zhuhei coldly spat out, eyes narrowing with anger.

Qi Wuliao knitted his brows in confusion. "I assure you that my meeting with you today is simply because of this. I have nothing else I want to say."

Just then, the loud of something exploding was heard in a corridor. Qi Wuliao stood up, his eyes suddenly flaring as he noticed that someone was missing.

"Heliang..."

Wen Zhuhei felt a strong and dangerous aura near him, but before he could prepare to do anything, he felt a sharp object stabbing into him. As he pulled away hurriedly, he look at Li Yinlui.

"You!" Wen Zhuhei's face knitted in cold sweat. Silver, something fatal to half-blood vampires.

Li Yinlui held a silver knife in his hand, waving it around as he suddenly smirked. "Young Master, His Majesty did not train you well enough..."

At this time, Qi Wuliao had already been captured by the vampires in the room. As he knelt down onto the ground, his face was bleeding.

"Li Yinlui!" Wen Zhuhei screamed, frustration in his vein. Li Yinlui should've been under his control, he was sure of it. What had gone wrong? But before he could do anything, a sharp pain was felt in his waist and he could feel his power draining.
