Chapter 156 – Descent Of A Heavenly Treasure (2/2)
“It’s over there!”
Lei Yu found his target and started heading to the center at breakneck speeds. As he got closer, Lei Yu felt the emitting force becoming more familiar. Also at this time, a black figure flew out from another direction and managed to reach the golden light first.
“Who is it? They have amazing skills!” Lei Yu said to himself. Being able to use the soft mud of the swamp to leverage a jump, this was definitely not something an ordinary person was capable of.
It appeared the other person had seen Lei Yu as well. “I’m really sorry Mr. Lei Yu, but this treasure will belong to me.”
As Lei Yu got closer, “You know who I am?”
“Mr. Lei Yu’s big name is naturally known far and wide. Let me introduce myself: I am one of the Senators of the Dark Council, a Vampire Prince of the Kameno family named Bel. Mr. Lei Yu may have heard of it before?”
It was now that Lei Yu carefully looked at this person’s appearance. A pale thin face without a trace of color, as if the blood was completely drained; an elegant tuxedo was worn over a shapely body made a good fit; inside was a flower collared white shirt that looked like it was tailored specifically for him; and black hair that partially covered his left eye. As a gust of wind blew by, Lei Yu noticed that his left eye was completely blood red.
“I have heard of you.” Lei Yu replied.
“I’m truly sorry. Since I was the first one to arrive here, then the treasure belongs to me.” Bel smiled with elegance as he pointed to the item buried in the swamp, yet still shone with golden light.
Lei Yu shook his head. “Prince Bel, it seems like there’s no such thing in this world as a rule of first come first served. Everything depends on your strength… Now I wonder if you possess that strength to lay down your claims?”
After hearing Lei Yu’s words, Bel couldn’t help but frown. “Could it be that no matter what, Mr. Lei Yu has to fight with me over this?”
Lei Yu’s lips arced into his signature smile. “Nope, I don’t intend to. Except you seemed to have forgotten that the news of this will travel fast within the Vatican. I doubt the Pope would sit at home without doing anything and wait for the treasure to be delivered into his own arms!”
Lei Yu said this because he could feel the Pope’s aura approaching. “Mr. Lei Yu is indeed correct. How could our Vatican miss this opportunity?”
The Pope’s voice was heard at a distance not too far away. They both turned and noticed a white figure rapidly floating towards them. That’s right, it was floating because one could clearly see the Pope’s feet unmoving, yet his body approached at high speeds.
“It’s so lively today.” Lei Yu was in the mood to watch a great show play out. Mainly Lei Yu understood that he would not be in any danger today – it was impossible for the Vatican and the Dark Council to join forces against him. Plus Lei Yu wasn’t afraid of either of them. In another sense, if Lei Yu became slightly closer to any of the parties here, the other would definitely meet their demise. Those two were looking at Lei Yu like he was holding a balance scale; wherever he tilted it would cause a completely different outcome.
