Chapter 825: Chapter 805: What the Hell Is Going On?
"No, what’s going on?" Qhianqhian still hadn’t left, instead she helped Shi Bahao to stand up: "Did you get hungry, then tried to rob someone else’s food and got beaten?"
Shi Bahao was speechless at Qhianqhian’s suggestion: "Can you think a bit more normally?"
A second later, an extremely handsome man was standing in front of Shi Bahao: "Found you."
Silver hair, fair skin, and dark red pupils, Qhianqhian twitched at the corners of her mouth and whispered: "What kind of trouble did you get into?"
Then she looked at the man with an innocent face and pretended to be infatuated.
But the man just sniffed: "Oh? Another one?" Shi Bahao’s face was full of bitterness. He kicked Qhianqhian: "Hurry home! What are you doing outside not going back? If you don’t go home, the werewolves and vampires will catch you when it gets dark!"
Qhianqhian was stunned from the kick and then heard Shi Bahao’s serious voice, stunned again, werewolves and vampires? Her mind felt blank.
She looked at the handsome man in front of her, shivered, and started to cry in the next second: "Boo hoo hoo, uncle is bullying me... I want to find my mom..."
Uncle?! Shi Bahao nearly vomited blood from Qhianqhian’s words.
But looking at the person in front of him, he still pretended to be fierce: "Hmph, you little brat, you dare ask me for candy?!"
Standing at the corner, Qhianqhian stopped, silently standing on the street corner watching the handsome man leave with Shi Bahao, then sat on the ground in a daze: "What kind of thing is this? Isn’t there sunlight?"
"Who said vampires are afraid of sunshine?" An pleasant voice sounded beside Qhianqhian.
Qhianqhian shivered and coldly looked up at the person next to her. It was an extremely beautiful beauty, with silver hair cascading down, crimson lips, and bright red pupils, almost like someone playing cosplay. Describing with "breathtakingly beautiful" seemed most fitting. Wearing a black outfit with a rose brooch pinned to their chest, it resembled a character stepping out of a manga.
Qhianqhian shivered again, the corners of her mouth twitched: "Wow, you’re really pretty." Her voice was cute and soft: "Where did you buy this hair? I want to buy some too."
"Let’s go." The beauty calmly stood up: "Are you walking by yourself or do I carry you?"
Qhianqhian shivered, shaking her head repeatedly: "No, no, I want to go home and watch cartoons, if I go home late mom will worry."
The beauty calmly bent down and picked her up. At this moment, Qhianqhian just wanted to pass out. Why did she choose such a deserted corner?
Why was she standing there dumbly? Why was no one noticing that she was being carried by such a beautiful person?
Watching as the beauty carried her into a bar, Qhianqhian’s face was filled with confusion, why was it a bar again? Last time entering a bar almost ended with getting her throat slit, this time... can she choose to go home?
"A normal drink, and a juice." The beauty sat calmly at the bar, placing Qhianqhian on a chair beside the counter.
Qhianqhian was speechless, wasn’t she supposed to order a Bloody Mary at this time?
"This little sister says you should order a Bloody Mary." The bartender said calmly, looking at Qhianqhian.
"Oh?" The beauty raised an eyebrow in surprise: "I didn’t expect you to know quite well?"
Qhianqhian closed her eyes, not looking or thinking, but the voices around were so noticeable, after a moment she had to surrender, glanced around and asked: "Where’s my friend?"
"Oh him, still probably running? After all, Lance struggled to find a plaything." The beauty calmly said: "Why don’t you seem surprised?"
"You look good, not scary." Qhianqhian was stunned for a moment and still expressed her true thoughts.
Glancing at the normal drink, she slightly averted her gaze, she didn’t want to know what it was made of: "What did you bring me here for?"
"I just find you amusing." The beauty shrugged: "Though Lance said there’s a child who might be an Ability User..."
"Do you want to kill me?" Qhianqhian tilted her head looking at the beauty, it didn’t seem like that, but thinking of movies and novels she read before, the First Embrace... blood sucking... ouch...
"Don’t be silly, ordinary blood is no big deal, but Cultivators’ blood would scatter our souls!" The bartender looked at Qhianqhian with a serious face.
Qhianqhian covered her heart with her hand, speechless: "Can you stop reading my thoughts? There’s no privacy at all."
The bartender shrugged and went back to work.
"Actually, it’s like this..." The beauty hesitated for a moment and said: "I swear I mean no harm to you and your friend, he was discovered because he stole our food, and his bruises are from running into trees..."
"...Just get to the point." Qhianqhian listened to the beauty’s words and her face was full of speechlessness.
Besides, would Shi Bahao be that stupid? Running into trees? She shook her head helplessly.
"Hmm, actually, we know that Huaxia’s Cultivators defy nature and possess the ability to live forever..."
"Stop, stop, I don’t know about that. I only know that living to a hundred or so is considered long-lived, never seen immortality." Qhianqhian quickly waved her hand: "And look, I’m so young, do I seem like the type to know these things? Shouldn’t you ask someone older?"
The beauty helplessly held her forehead: "Can you let me finish?"
Fortunately, he had a good temperament, otherwise listening to Qhianqhian’s words might have made him explode.
Qhianqhian nodded innocently, she really didn’t know, she wasn’t lying, at least for now she hadn’t seen it.
Eh... wait, seems like Jimo Xiao is also pretty old? One generation is twenty, her senior brother’s dad forty, Grandpa Kong sixty, Grandpa Kong’s dad eighty, Jimo Xiao one hundred... okay, not particularly old either.
Seems like living to a hundred is normal.
"Immortality, we vampires already have it. But as time progresses, waking from long slumbers weakens our power, and during long slumbers, it’s easy to be killed, so our race has been dwindling."
Qhianqhian nodded.
The beauty continued: "So we’re considering various ways to achieve eternal life and become strong."
Qhianqhian looked at the beauty: "Can I interrupt for a moment?"
"Go ahead."
"Does The Holy See really exist? Are there really Knights of the Round Table, Cardinals, Power of Light?" Qhianqhian asked seriously.
"They do."
"Hm, in that case, they should be ruled out first. If you’re talking safety, The East is definitely safer, without those bothersome light and darkness, hey, do you know about the mystical yin-yang?" Qhianqhian looked full of pride.
"I do." The beauty just raised an eyebrow.
"So you want to..." Qhianqhian seriously looked at the beauty.
"I hope to learn your Eastern Cultivation." The beauty said this quietly, and the bar fell silent.
"Huh???" Qhianqhian was startled: "Huh????"
"Why did you ’huh’ twice?"
"Expresses a high level of surprise." Qhianqhian said earnestly: "But your language is quite good, you can converse with me on this level."
