Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

"I haven't seen the sincerity you speak of," Xia Liu said, shaking his head without listening to the rest of Miley's words.

"Sir, I can see that you are in a hurry, but we are even more desperate. Since we are weak, it is impossible for us to offend you, and because we have been abandoned by our clan, we live cautiously..."

"Wait, did you say you were abandoned by your clan?" Xia Liu caught onto a critical point.

In fact, he already knew that Mo Wanqing couldn't possibly appear in such a place.

In Binlai City, even the poorly-dressed Norman exuded nobility and elegance, certainly not someone of this bloodline.

If one had the means and strength, who would choose to live in such a dark and damp place?

Even members of the Blood Clan wouldn't willingly stay here.

"Yes, our branch of the clan, because our master does not consume the essence blood of living humans, has been oppressed by other clan members, eventually falling into living here," Miley said, her eyes beginning to redden.

Looking back on those days, she truly felt that life was worse than death.

Or rather, living here was simply more painful than death itself.

"Oh? There are Vampires like this within the Blood Clan?" Xia Liu was startled; it was his first time hearing that someone in the Blood Clan could be oppressed for not consuming the essence blood of living humans.

If all of this was true, then the appearance of this Vampire would definitely be an anomaly, and it might even bring about change to the future of the entire Blood Clan!

"Lead me to see your master, or your king," Xia Liu pondered briefly before saying.

"This..." Miley hesitated, unsure whether what Xia Liu said was true.

If he was an assassin sent by the Imperial Family, then her mistake would be irredeemable.

"Why are you hesitating? If I find my friend, perhaps I could help revive your bloodline," Xia Liu said matter-of-factly.

Indeed, that was what Xia Liu was considering.

After all, members of the Blood Clan who didn't consume the essence blood of living humans were virtually nonexistent.

The sudden existence of such a branch of the Blood Clan would be extremely beneficial for ordinary humans.

It was just a pity that this bloodline had been suppressed before it could grow.

If this branch could rival the genuine Imperial Family bloodline, then in the future, ordinary people might not have to worry about being hunted by Vampires.

"All right! I'll take you there right away," Miley chose to believe, seeing the casual, relaxed expression on Xia Liu's face.

She was truly fed up with living in such a place.

Not to mention consuming the blood of various animals, in extreme hunger, she had even consumed expired blood from the hospital.

All of that was negligible, but the living conditions were just too poor.

Yet she couldn't go out.

Because once discovered by the Imperial Family or other powerful clan members, she would be annihilated.

For that was their territory.

Her branch of the Blood Clan could only stay in this cave, as well as the surrounding forests and villages.

It wasn't just Miley who was fed up.

Even her three Viscount servants had had enough.

They silently followed behind Xia Liu and Miley, having lost any confidence in defeating him.

If they were to die upon entering, they were willing.

After passing through a gloomy stone corridor, a spacious and bright hall unfolded before Xia Liu.

Many oil lamps were lit around, and at first glance, the place felt rather cozy.

The surroundings were skillfully decorated to resemble brickwork, and the style of the hall wasn't much different from many ancient courts in Europe.

Especially on the central wall, there were many exquisite portraits with a hint of history.

Around the edges stood several thick columns, ornamental in purpose, adding a unique flavor to the space.

At the front, atop a dark stairway, there was a large, pale yellow, genuine leather chair.

Honestly, had Xia Liu not seen the damp, gloomy entrance, he would have thought he was in some ancient castle.

"Miley! What have you brought us? Is it disaster?" An elegant voice, as if from the heavens, echoed through the grand hall at that moment.

"Impressive cultivation, having reached Marquis Mid-Stage, comparable to an Earth Rank Mid-Stage Martial Artist. And she's a woman... Could this be the queen of this bloodline?" Hearing the voice, Xia Liu immediately pondered.

Before his thoughts settled, a woman slowly made her way from the circular corridor.

She was dressed in a deep red gown, and the clack of her high heels on the stone floor resonated crisply.

A tiara adorned her head, with a few strands of bright yellow hair fluttering.

Her skin was delicate and pale, its softness perceptible even without touching it.

The noble and elegant attire, matched with her exquisite European features.

You could say she was the most beautiful woman in the west without error.

"My apologies, Mistress Kathleen, it was Miley who erred!" As soon as Kathleen appeared, Miley and three servants knelt to the ground.

She had brought Xia Liu here as a last resort, resigned to death if it came to that.

"Rise, this is not your fault. I am the one who erred, with my misguided ideals and actions, I have caused you all to suffer," Kathleen said with a smile, but Xia Liu could see the sorrow and tears hidden behind it.

Whenever an anomaly arose within a species, it was naturally oppressed by other members of its community.

It was an inevitable truth.

What Xia Liu hadn't expected was that this anomaly originated with a woman, and not just any woman—a stunning beauty that even he found captivating.

Of course, while he felt drawn to her, Xia Liu did not harbor any such thoughts anymore.

All he wanted now was to find Mo Wanqing and help her reduce some of the disaster that loomed.

"Your ideals are not mistaken, nor are your actions, at least in the eyes of ordinary people who would support you," Xia Liu said, gazing at Kathleen from afar.

"Hehe, you must be an assassin sent by our kin to finish us. So many years have gone by, I no longer wish to struggle. Please kill me if you can, and then accept them..." Kathleen said with a light laugh.

Along with her, there were more than a hundred people being oppressed.

They were descendants of the guards who had once followed Kathleen's father into battle.

Kathleen's father was a general, which accounted for his many followers. Even after that generation passed away, their descendants continued to loyally support the progeny of the General.

"My Queen! You cannot do this!"

"I am willing to die alongside the Queen!"

"I am as well!"

"Mistress Kathleen, it is I who erred. I cannot face our people; I will take my leave in death first!"

Having said that, Miley drew a dagger hidden at her waist and aimed for her own throat.

It was then that Xia Liu grabbed her wrist.

"Don't be rash. I am not here to kill you. Besides, your queen is so beautiful, even if I were here to do that, I couldn't bring myself to harm her."

After disarming Miley of her dagger, Xia Liu teased, looking at Kathleen.

"Huh? Respectful sir, you're not an assassin sent by other kin?" Kathleen looked puzzled; if Xia Liu wasn't there to kill her, how would he know this place?

From Xia Liu's appearance, he should be an Eastern Assassin...
