The North Country Club...

The club's cellar had rows of wine racks, but most of them were empty. Some with seemingly expensive wines were well taken care of, without a single trace of dust.

The cellar was neat and tidy, and very quiet too, totally isolated from the noise of the bar.

Something was ticking rhythmically in the dark.

A round table was placed in the center of the wine cellar. Half of the table was hollow, and a slim-figured girl was strapped on it, as if she were in the midst of an ancient, feudal ritual...

There was a cut on her wrist, and the ticking sound was from the blood dripping down from her veins.

The blood was dripping to the ground, into a strange diagram, forming a cycle in the carved notches.

As the amount of blood increased, the evil presence from the eerie diagram grew stronger. It crazily penetrated Liu Ru's body and modified her body composition. Her mouth was slightly opened as she was suffering from the pain, and it was clear that her canine teeth were growing longer.

When a human was losing blood at a slow rate, they would be in danger after losing more than forty percent of their blood. Liu Ru could not tell how much blood she had lost, but she was clearly aware that each drop of blood into the eerie diagram below would turn into a strange gaseous substance before returning to her body.

Maybe her blood had deteriorated; either way, the pain was unbearable, like she was immersed in acid.

The surroundings were in complete darkness. The only sounds left were the ticking of the blood and her panting. Time felt incredibly long, and she felt like a hopeless person abandoned in a dark corner waiting for her death.

Kata, kata, kata...

The footsteps were crisp and clear as they echoed in the wine cellar.

Liu Ru slightly regained her consciousness, with a hint of disgust rising in her heart!

She knew who the person was; it must be the vampire, Nie Dong!

He was planning to turn her into his own kind, to let her know that the vampires had a longer lifespan than humans. Most importantly, they could keep their youthful looks forever.

If she ended up turning into something like that, she would not want to live a second longer!

”Liu Ru?” The rather familiar voice of a man appeared.

Liu Ru was startled, and her heart filled with joy.

”I...I'm here, Mo Fan, is that you?” Liu Ru asked weakly.

”It's me, it's me!” Mo Fan hurried over to Liu Ru.

When he saw Liu Ru was bleeding, he quickly untied her and treated her wounds.

Luckily, he had brought some blood serums along to replenish her blood. He let out a relieved sigh when he saw Liu Ru's pale face gradually returning to normal.
