Of course, Chester was still the one driving. He complained no more this time, deeply afraid that the honor would be s.n.a.t.c.hed away by Paul.
“Mr. Chester, I have a hundred reasons to believe that you are fully qualified for the glorious and sacred task of being my driver. However, shouldn’t you put on some clothing first?” Ling Yun said to the pale, naked Chester.
“Oh! Sh*t! D*mn, how could I forget such an important matter… Honorable Sir, I’m sorry, really, really sorry…”
Chester yelped and covered his ugly lower body. He jumped out of the car and went straight to the trunk to take out two sets of tuxedos. He put one set on quickly and threw the other set to Paul, who was in the backseat of the car.
Chester then went back to the driver’s seat and nodded at Ling Yun apologetically. “Oh, Honorable Sir, I think you’ve seen it as well. We need to undergo transformations frequently. That’s why we have many sets of clothes prepared. However, we will occasionally forget to wear them…”
As a member of the Blood Clan, their bodies were all icy cold and had no feelings towards ambient temperatures. Paul and Chester were also shocked to the core by Ling Yun, so the thought of wearing clothes slipped even further away from their minds.
Ling Yun looked at Chester’s lower body with great interest. “I’m very interested to know if your ‘thing’ is still working. If I were to smash that ‘thing’, would it recover instantly like other places?”
“Oh, Satan. Honorable Sir, you are our Satan. I admit that you have the power to kill us in an instant, but I, Chester, will refuse to answer this question in the face of G.o.d. I’ll refuse to answer completely!”
Chester yelped again and swore not to answer this question. It was Satan one moment and G.o.d the next. One really wouldn’t know who he wors.h.i.+ped.
“Alright, I just wanted to understand how it works, why are you so alarmed? Drive now, as fast as you can…” Ling Yun said, amused.
“Oh, thank you, Honorable Sir. I can drive, but can you tell me your destination?” Chester started the car and asked.
“Beijing,” Ling Yun stated calmly.
Chester floored the accelerator, and the silver-gray car flew out like a bullet.
Cao Tianlong drove Cui Lao and stayed close to the silver-gray car in the black Audi.
The silver-gray car accelerated, quickly moving past two hundred miles an hour. The telephone poles and the greenery were rapidly disappearing. They would reach the capital in seven or eight hours at this speed.
The distance between Qingshui City and Beijing was about 1,300 kilometers.
“Can you tell me who the ‘Baron’ you mentioned is now?” Ling Yun asked his first question after thinking hard.
“Our Baron is Mister Chen. Oh, he is also a member of the Chen Family in Huaxia. His name is Chen Jianwei…”
Ling Yun nodded. It was just as he thought, Cao Shanshan’s cousin, who came back from studying abroad, was the one creating all the trouble.
So, his name was Chen Jianwei. Ling Yun had really seen a ghost!
Ling Yun could remember vividly that Cao Shanshan received a call from overseas during their first date on the first day of the Qingming Festival Holidays.
That man sounded gentle over the phone. He had been madly calling Cao Shanshan to the point of hara.s.sing her. He told her over the phone that he was about to board the plane, wanting to inform her in advance.
Cao Shanshan was already p.i.s.sed off with Chen Jianwei’s constant hara.s.sment. It was also her first date with Ling Yun. Therefore, she rejected Chen Jianwei and threatened to change her number.
However, while Chen Jianwei might be soft-spoken, he was domineering. He didn’t allow Cao Shanshan any chance to reject him.
Cao Shanshan had no choice because Ling Yun had yet to admit to being her boyfriend. Also, Ling Yun was still not someone strong enough to confront Chen Jianwei. She was afraid that Ling Yun would be at the losing end, so she could only use the delay tactic. She delayed it until after her college entrance examinations.
Chen Jianwei agreed to Cao Shanshan’s request. He also said that he would be busy for two months and could wait for Cao Shanshan to finish her college entrance examinations…
Nothing would have happened originally, but Ling Yun went into the crater and couldn’t be contacted. Sun Tianbiao entered Qingshui City, and Ling Yun’s family met with terrible circ.u.mstances. Cao Shanshan realized the sensitivity and seriousness of the matter, so she personally went back to her family. She wanted to make her position clear and have the Cao Family step forward and confront the Sun Family. Little did she know that she was walking into Chen Jianwei’s trap…
Ling Yun had long guessed that Cao Shanshan’s disappearance had some relation with that cousin from the Chen Family. He managed to link everything together after seeing that these three descendants of the Blood Clan were foreigners.
“The Chen Family again!”
Ling Yun’s eyes narrowed. The Chen Family really made a huge move!
Ling Yun and Dugu Mo had met nine j.a.panese people in Shennongjia. They used a scientific research expedition as an excuse to steal Huaxia’s Shennong Cauldron. This team was led by none other than Chen Jianren!
Ling Yun killed more than a hundred j.a.panese naval personnel and killed another hundred j.a.panese ninjas on Turtle Island. He had met Chen Jianrou from the Chen Family on his way back.
Now, this Chen Jianwei from the Chen Family, who had been studying abroad for the past three years, returned suddenly two months ago. Cao Shanshan went missing right after that…
The Chen Family’s chess pieces were everywhere!
Seriously… do they desire to stand at the pinnacle of Huaxia… that badly?
Ling Yun’s eyes were like a sharp icy blade. His black and white pupils suddenly appeared!
The Chen Family touched the Cao Family. Did that mean that his own father, Ling Xiao, and his Second Uncle Ling Yue’s disappearance were also related to them?
Ling Yun thought of that immediately. His lips pursed.
Ling Yun linked the webs in his mind and thought of many critical points.
“Tell me, where is Cao Shanshan now?” he asked.
“Cao Shanshan?” Chester’s eyes showed uncertainty. He repeated her name and suddenly asked, “Honorable Sir, are you asking about the beautiful girl who suddenly returned to the Cao Family from another city two months ago?”
Ling Yun nodded. “Yes, that’s her. Where is she now?”
Chester turned his head to exchange a glance with Paul. He then turned back and shook his head. “Oh, Honorable Sir, it’s not that we don’t want to answer you, but we don’t know where she is either.”
Ling Yun’s brows knitted tightly. “Isn’t Cao Shanshan at the Cao Family or the Chen Family?”
Chester continued driving at the same speed, shaking his head like a rattlesnake. “Honorable Sir, you have to know, we are at the lowest rank of the descendants of the Blood Clan without any t.i.tle. We are just the Baron’s loyal servants in front of him. We have no authority to question where he hid that beautiful girl. In fact, we don’t dare to either…”
Chester didn’t seem like he was lying, and he had no reason to lie either. Ling Yun could only nod while his brows furrowed into a straight line!
“However, there is something important I have to report to you…” Chester said after a short while, seeming to recall something. “Honorable Sir…”
“My surname is Ling…” Ling Yun said.
“Ah, Honorable Mister Ling. You have to know that the greatest delicacy is the fresh blood of a teenage virgin. Our abilities soar if we perform The Embrace with such a virgin…”
Ling Yun stopped Chester. This was the second time he heard the phrase The Embrace, but he didn’t know what it meant.
“Tell me what The Embrace is first.”
Chester paused. “Oh, Honorable Mister Ling, I was negligent. I forgot that you know nothing about our Blood Clan…”
“To be honest, Paul and I cannot be considered true members of the Blood Clan. We are only distant blood relatives at best. We are the descendants of the Blood Clan who gave blood for The Embrace…
“As for The Embrace of the Blood Clan, there were two methods. The Blood Clan can draw a cross-shaped wound at a human’s throat, drain all of their blood, and let them drink their own blood. The other method is for the Blood Clan to cut their arteries and give the blood to the human. That would make them the lowest rank of descendants, which is what we are.
“A person who has been given blood through The Embrace by a high ranking Blood Clan member becomes a descendant of the Blood Clan immediately. That person also becomes the giver’s loyal servant…”
Ling Yun shook in anger. “Has Cao Shanshan undergone The Embrace?”
