Rescue

In the ruins of the former Changhong City, Eve, in her red dress, was as vibrant as a freshly bloomed rose.

At the same time, she held a giant scythe in her hand, facing the four vampires who had already knelt before her with a calm and elegant demeanor.

“Attacking a member of the royal family… this crime alone is enough for you to die dozens of times.”

The few vampires in front of Eve looked anxious, seemingly wanting to explain their offensive behavior to her, that they were simply unaware of her identity.

But Eve had no intention of reasoning with the vampires below.

With a gentle sweep, the giant scythe named Other Shore began to reap the lives of the four vampires.

Watching the life force of the four vampires before her continuously disappear, Eve couldn’t help but nod with satisfaction.

The moment these vampires saw her transform from a human back into a vampire, Eve had already sentenced them to death in her heart.

If the news that she had gone to the human world during her disappearance were to spread, it would easily give nobles with ulterior motives a handle against her, thereby shaking the influence brought by her return.

After using the soul vessel to undo the seal on herself, Eve’s strength had advanced a step further than before she was sealed, officially reaching the ranks of Sequence Five.

Her advancement this time was thanks to the Earth Dragon mushroom soup Su Ran had shared with her.

The unknown mushroom had loosened the bottleneck preventing Eve from entering Sequence Five.

The silver chain on her arm glowed with a silvery-white light.

After undoing the seal on herself, Eve used the soul vessel to seal the remaining human aura on her body.

Being in Changhong City, she didn’t have time to clean it up carefully and could only seal it all up for now, to be dealt with later.

Otherwise, if her aura leaked during a fight, she could easily be recognized by someone familiar.

After dealing with the traces on her body, Eve threw out several blood spikes with her hand.

The vital parts of the school uniform on the ground were pierced by the blood spikes, making it look as if it had suffered a fatal wound.

As for the missing body, the large pool of blood on the ground was enough to explain it.

Suddenly, Eve felt an extremely strong aura erupt from the direction Lily had left, rushing towards her location.

‘It must be that Lily has already contacted Teacher Bai and informed her of the seriousness of the situation.’

Eve stood in the air, patiently waiting for Bai Yun’s arrival.

She had to perform the final cleanup for her departure.

Time rewound to when Eve had enveloped herself in blood.

With Eve blocking the vampires’ pursuit, Lily basically encountered no other enemies along the way.

Lily had only one thought at this time: to quickly notify Teacher Bai about the situation with the border city, and then have her go and rescue Eve.

In a short while, Lily saw a familiar figure on the road ahead.

“Teacher Bai!”

Her spirits lifted, and to attract Teacher Bai’s attention, she couldn’t help but shout loudly.

Hearing someone call her name, Bai Yun withdrew her gaze from the distance.

After a moment of thought, she recognized the voice as one of her students, and one she had personally arranged to team up with Eve to complete the assessment.

But now, she didn’t see Eve’s figure by her side, and the direction she appeared from was the same as the direction she was looking.

‘Since they’re here for training, then I must protect the students’ safety as much as possible.’

The school had sent Bai Yun to hold the fort, so they definitely had full confidence in her strength.

The ruins of Changhong City had been inspected by the school.

At most, only Sequence Three magical beasts inhabited it, and there weren’t too many dangers.

Sending the Sequence Five Bai Yun was enough to handle most dangers, not to mention that those students also had money to hire bodyguards.

This group of people together could handle most dangers.

And just now, Bai Yun had keenly sensed the aura of vampires appearing.

However, she wasn’t too worried.

None of these vampires exceeded Sequence Three, and their overall strength was still within the range permitted by the school.

On her way to the scene, she had encountered Lily.

Thinking of this, Bai Yun spoke up and asked about Lily’s situation, “What’s wrong, student Lily?”

“Tea…cher, Eve and I heard during the trial that the vampires want to attack the border city, and the one making the move is an Earl!”

When Bai Yun heard the news Lily brought back, her mind went blank with a clap of thunder, forgetting everything else.

The news Lily brought back was simply too shocking.

Although the vampires had always harassed the border city on a small scale, an organized, real attack had almost never happened.

Her face became serious as she confirmed, “Are there really Earls among the vampires making a move, wanting to attack the border city?”

An Earl represented a Sequence Six among the vampires.

With such strength, wanting to breach the border city was wishful thinking, but what Bai Yun was worried about was that this was just a probe against the humans.

“Eve and I heard it together.” Lily said with a certain face, then her tone changed as she said anxiously, “Teacher, let’s not talk about this first. Hurry up and help Eve. She’s covering my retreat so I can notify you of this news as soon as possible.”

After hearing the news, Bai Yun’s expression became solemn.

She couldn’t get any more useful information from Lily’s mouth alone.

Perhaps she needed to capture the four vampires to obtain other useful intelligence.

And then there was Eve, covering the retreat.

Bai Yun liked this student very much.

Looking at her was like seeing her former self.

No wonder so many people had suggested she come to the school to be a teacher back then.

Watching the students grow day by day was indeed helpful for her own recuperation.

“Don’t worry, I’ll go right now.” Seeing Lily’s anxious face, Bai Yun spoke to comfort her.

But before she could finish, a slender, blood-red figure appeared in the air, holding a giant scythe with a long dress hanging down.

“Not good!”

Bai Yun’s expression changed.

The appearance of the blood-red figure was an unexpected situation.

This slender figure exuded the aura of a Sequence Five, and from the pair of wings growing from her waist, this figure was even a member of the vampire royal family!

Because countless research materials had shown that only the bloodline of the Vampire Queen had wings that grew from the waist.

‘If the other party is a royal, then Eve, who stayed behind to cover the retreat, is in danger!’

Bai Yun no longer spoke to Lily.

An unimaginable speed erupted from her body as she rushed towards Eve’s position.

Only scorching air was left in the places she passed.

A Sequence Five warrior could perfectly control their own power.

Only when she was truly flustered would Bai Yun let the magic essence in her body dissipate and affect the surroundings.

Even though Bai Yun’s speed was already approaching its limit, the distance between her and Eve was not something that could be closed in a short time.

When she arrived at the scene, she only saw a set of tattered school clothes and the corpses of four vampires.

“Vampire!”

Looking at the vampire girl before her, Bai Yun furiously drew out a long whip.

With a fierce gale, it whipped towards Eve from a tricky angle.

However, Bai Yun’s furious strike was parried by the well-prepared Eve with Other Shore.

The force feedback from the long handle made Eve’s hand go numb.

It was clear that the warrior’s full-force strike was not as easy to block as it seemed on the surface.
