Chapter 312 : A Rose Wedding 38 (1/2)

“Oh wait. Perhaps…you’re afraid of death. Would you still want to resurrect her if you knew the price was your life?”

Shi Sheng’s words were like a thorn that accurately lodged into Sikong Sa’s heart. The hand supporting the glass sarcophagus lost its strength, causing it to fall to the ground once more. This time, the body fell out.

It received the full brunt of the heavy glass sarcophagus’ fall, causing it to split in half.

Sikong Sa dumbly stared at the skeleton that had been broken apart by the sarcophagus and suddenly lost all strength, sliding to half-kneel on the floor.

A fiery pain burned his lips, as if there was something eating away at his flesh and blood. Pain surged out from his heart and emanated to his limbs.

‘This…?’

Shi Sheng was puzzled when she saw Sikong Sa suddenly fall to his knees. ‘The hell? We haven’t even fought yet, and you’re already kneeling?’

“Ah!” Sikong Sa suddenly raised his head and yelled. His body was dissolving at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The innocent Shi Sheng, “…” ‘I didn’t do anything, and he’s already going to die on his own…’

“It’s holy water—the most powerful weapon vampire hunters have against vampires.” Xi Yin had stood next to Shi Sheng at some point and explained to her in a low voice.

Shi Sheng recalled the scene where Ai Wei had kissed Sikong Sa. ‘So is this…karma? But how come Ai Wei was fine?’

“Is this the thing that was used on you before?” Shi Sheng calmly asked as she watched Sikong Sa’s body quickly dissolve.

“En.”

She suddenly turned around, concern written all over her face. “It hurt a lot, didn’t it?”

“No.” Xi Yin shook his head. Back then, Sikong Sa had been afraid of splashing it on himself; he’d seemingly diluted it, hence lessening its potency.

Shi Sheng reached out to touch Xi Yin’s back. That night, she’d only just touched it, and yet her finger had gone numb for several days. ‘Just what kind of pain must he have been in…’

Sikong Sa’s anguished shrieks slowly died down, leaving behind a skeleton that turned to dust with a gust of wind and dissolved into a puddle of blood.

Shi Sheng walked over to the ice coffin and looked inside. Ai Wei was long dead. She’d died the same way as Sikong Sa.

Shi Sheng fell silent for a moment before heading out and descending the mountain, whilst holding Xi Yin’s hand.

After they left the cave, the entire mountain suddenly started collapsing, burying everything underneath in earth.

Amidst the whistling of the night breeze, one could hear the two speaking.

“Are you unhappy about losing the glass sarcophagus?”

“You’re still here.”

……

The internal conflicts that had just ended for the vampires sprung up once more. But just as they were in the heat of fighting, Shi Sheng broke the enchantment sealing the territories in, freeing those vampires that were unable to leave.

Why would they continue to fight now? The whole world awaited them!

Hence, a large number of vampires entered the human world.

The previous incident had caused a lot of vampire hunters to perish. So the humans were caught unprepared when faced with the large-scale invasion.

And some prick appeared to have given the vampires a lesson on political manoeuvring—they would turn humans after biting them.

The vampires spread like a disease. Even if the various nations organised people to wipe them out, they would be able to replenish their numbers in a very short period. The only way to truly wipe them out would be to exterminate the human race.

While the flames of war ravaged the outside world, there was only one safe haven. Rose Academy.

All the vampires subconsciously avoided this place.
