Lucius followed Mu En all the way to the All Souls Temple. This made Lucius more certain of his guess.

Then, he waited outside for Mu En to come out. Unexpectedly, he waited for four hours.

“Curses, what in the world are you doing in there? Complaining for more than four hours? Are you an old lady who quarrels on the side of the road? You’re so talkative.”

Finally, while Lucius was waiting anxiously, hesitating whether to go into the All Souls Temple or pack up and escape, Mu En finally came out.

“He’s finally out, huh? What is he doing? Why is he staring into the All Souls Temple? Who is he looking at? Wait, why is he coming this way?”

“Could it be that I’ve been discovered? Impossible, I’m at least five hundred meters away from him, and I’ve always been in his blind spot, but… why do I feel that… He… is coming towards me.”

Just as Lucius was preparing to retreat, he suddenly noticed that Mu En had disappeared from his sight.

“Yo! Isn’t that Viscount Lucius? What are you hiding here for? Are you playing hide and seek?” A voice came from behind Lucius, and it made him break out in a cold sweat.

…

As it turned out, when Mu En was testing the extent of his spiritual power coverage, he noticed that Lucius, who was squatting at the corner of the wall, was sneakily peering in his direction.

This was really… Fate!

“It’s not easy to come to the ancestral land. I want to take a look around.”Lucius was greatly shocked. He did not even realize when and how Mu En had appeared behind him.

“Is that so? What a coincidence, me too.” Mu En smiled and slowly extended his left hand.

Although Mu En’s sudden appearance had greatly shocked Lucius, what made Lucius even more terrified was the big shot who had yet to appear. He had been chatting with Mu En for four hours in the All Souls Temple.

He was already certain that the reason Mu En was able to discover him and instantly come to his side was because of the guidance of that big shot.

However, the fact that that big shot had yet to appear made him extremely uncertain.

“Could it be that… that big shot did not want to deal with me personally, so he let Mu En do it?”

Lucius’s vigilance was instantly heightened. He looked at Mu En’s outstretched left hand and was about to dodge it. What a joke, how would he dare to retaliate now?

Unexpectedly, Mu En reacted even faster. He directly grabbed his shoulder blade. At this moment, Lucius finally felt the change in Mu En.

Mu En’s left hand did not seem to exert much force, but it was like an iron pincer that could not be moved. No, even if it was an iron pincer, Lucius could still break free. However, he did not have the confidence to break free from Mu En’s grasp now.

“Oh! What a coincidence! I was planning to wander around too. I didn’t expect to run into you,” Mu En said with a smile.

“Yeah, what a coincidence!” At this moment, Lucius was still puzzled. In less than a day, or rather, it had only been four hours, how could Mu En’s strength have such a huge change?

In fact, after Mu En obtained the Bloodline Atavism Secret Technique, he could be said to have been cultivating all the time. Moreover, because he was a duke, the inheritance fragments in his bloodline were much more than that of the viscount.

Even if it was just a little bit of awakening, it was enough to deal with an ordinary blood breed. Moreover, Lucius was certain that Mu En had received guidance from some important figure in All Souls Temple, which caused Lucius to completely panic at this moment.

“Impossible, it’s only been four hours, how could he become so powerful?! Could it be… the legendary inheritance of the blood breed?”

Lucius was stunned by his own guess. The inheritance of the blood clan was an ancient blood clan ritual.

Originally, it was a ritual that only a prince could perform. No matter who it was, even if it was the lowest blood clan hybrid, as long as they performed the inheritance ritual of the blood clan, their strength would instantly increase greatly, and they would become an existence comparable to a duke.

“Could it be that the big shot inside is one of the thirteen nobles?”

The more Lucius thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. After all, other than this, there was no other method that could increase one’s strength to this level in such a short period of time.

“Stop playing tricks on me. Tell me, why are you following me?” Mu En would not believe that this guy just happened to run into him when he was out for a walk.

Judging from his current behaviour, it was obvious that he had been following Mu En since he left the hotel. Thinking of this, Mu En could not help but feel a lingering fear.

His strength was still too weak. If he had not obtained the Soul Sacrifice Blood Technique in the All Souls Temple and had his spiritual power improve, he probably would not have noticed that something was wrong until now.

Mu En’s eyes turned cold, and he gradually tightened his grip. Lucius felt Mu En’s killing intent, and he fell to his knees with a plop. He cried bitterly, “Your grace, it’s a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding.”

“Your grace?” Mu En smiled coldly. “If you didn’t tell me, I would have forgotten. You seemed to have no regard for me as a duke in the past. You’ve done a lot of things behind my back. Moreover, in the temple… is all of this a misunderstanding?”

“It’s not a misunderstanding.” As soon as Lucius said that, he felt that the force exerted on his shoulder seemed to be increasing. It was as if he had the intention to crush his shoulder at the slightest disagreement.

“It’s a misunderstanding, it’s a misunderstanding. No, what I mean is, in the past, I was a fool, scum, and trash. After hearing the words of the nobles in the temple, I have already realized my mistake!”

“Oh? After realizing your mistake, you came to follow me? You really are…” Mu En did not believe that the other party came to admit his mistake because of the ambiguous words of the thirteenth nobles.

“No, no, no, it’s not stalking.” Lucius could already hear the sound of his bones breaking. He quickly explained, “It’s not stalking, it’s protection, it’s protection.”

“Protection? Do you think I’m an Idiot?” Mu En thought that the other party was crazy. He was starting to talk nonsense. He could even say something like protection. Did he really think he was an idiot!?

“No, no, no, really, really. It’s Toby, Count Toby.”

“Hmm? Continue.” Mu En heard a new name. There were other people among them, so he had to be on guard.

“When the thirteenth noble left, Count Toby came to me and said that you would complain to the throne, and then the throne would punish all those who violated the laws of the blood breeds. Then…”

“Then he said that as long as no one complained, the throne would ignore it unless it was made public, and only dead people would not complain. I was worried that he would harm you, so I secretly followed you, duke, and planned to protect you in secret.”

“Protect me? I think you don’t dare to kill me in the ancestral land of the vampires, so you secretly followed me and planned to kill me on my way back.” Of course, Mu En did not believe the other party’s nonsense. He saw through the other party’s intention at a glance.

However, he did not expect that he had been targeted long ago. Moreover, he was a terrifying and extremely difficult guy. It did not matter whether he killed Lucius or not now.

Or rather, that person’s goal had been achieved. Whether it was Lucius killing him or him killing Lucius, it could prove that person’s guess.

“Duke, please listen to my explanation. I admit that I have made many big mistakes in the past and violated a few vampire commandments. However, I have changed my mind. I am now your most loyal subordinate. I swear that I will always be loyal to you and the thirteen nobles.”

Swear? It would be a miracle if he could believe in oaths. Oaths were the most worthless thing in the world. However, Mu En had just learned a method that could guarantee Lucius’s loyalty.

“Oh? Is that so? I do have a secret technique that can verify if you are as loyal as you say.”

As Mu En spoke, his right hand pressed directly on Lucius’s forehead.

“Don’t worry, your grace. I am loyal to the duke and the throne. My heart is as clear as the sun and the moon…” Soon, Lucius was speechless.

Because he could feel a cold and strange energy slowly fusing into his soul through his opponent’s palm. Lucius could not help but want to resist the invasion of that energy.

However, he knew that once he resisted, Mu En would immediately crush his head. In the end, Lucius did not choose to resist until that cold and strange energy formed a strange blood-colored mark in the depths of his mind.

This was one of the few secret skills that Mu En could learn under the Soul Sacrificing Blood Technique: the blood slave mark.

After the mark was planted, the opponent’s life and death were in Mu En’s hands. Moreover, once Mu En died, the opponent would not be able to live.
