Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Ye Ge hesitated for a moment, but still chose to step forward.

He walked over to one of the vampire warriors lying on the ground, bent down, and slowly reached out his hand to check on him.

'My body is so cold...'

Ye Ge was taken aback.

and......

He's really dead...

Checking their attribute panel, it was confirmed that these vampire warriors' health, mana, and all other stats had indeed been reset to zero.

Ye Ge pondered for a moment, then stood up and looked around.

We took a headcount.

There were actually fifty-three vampire warriors lying there...

They all died; not one survived.

What on earth is going on? Someone actually beat him to it and wiped out all these vampires?

[Xia Xiyao: Ye Ge, how is it?]

Ye Ge hesitated for a moment.

[Night Song: You all come over here. Tell the other students hiding nearby to come out too. There's no need to hide anymore.]

Ye Ge untied the ropes binding Gao Qian and Zhang Kun.

Both individuals remain unconscious.

Gao Shenxue and Xia Xiyao jumped down from the tall tree.

Jiang Xiaoming, Tang Yanyan, and others also emerged from the dark, dense forest.

The students were all stunned to see the corpses of vampire warriors scattered on the ground.

I never expected so many vampire warriors to have infiltrated human territory!

"Lord Night Song, you killed them all so quickly?"

Tang Yanyan's eyes were practically sparkling with admiration.

Ye Ge slowly shook his head: "It was not me who killed them all, but someone else."

"Someone else?" Xia Xiyao looked at the vampire corpses on the ground, then at the unconscious Gao Qian and Zhang Kun. "Xiao Ye, are you saying someone was faster than us and rescued them first? Could it be that Night Watch reinforcements have arrived?"

Night Song: "No, the people who killed them didn't seem like they were there to rescue people, and they weren't Night Watchmen either."

If they really came to rescue people, they would have already taken Gao Qian and Zhang Kun away. Why are they still tied up there?

Gao Shenxue crouched down and carefully examined the corpse of a vampire warrior.

The corpses of these vampires showed absolutely no external injuries.

But each of them wore a terrified expression, their pupils dilated, their mouths agape, their faces contorted and grotesque, as if they were experiencing immense fear before their deaths!

Furthermore, the skin on their bodies was a strange deep blue, the color left by frost that had condensed on their skin.

Touching them with your fingers reveals that their bodies are a thousand times colder than ice! This level of cold is unbearable for any living being!

Gao Shenxue said softly, "His body was completely stiff, and even his internal organs were corroded by the cold air. He was frozen to death."

Xia Xiyao: "Frozen to death?"

Gao Shenxue: "Yes, and the people who killed them should also be from a dark race."

"Huh???" Jiang Xiaoming was dumbfounded.

Gao Shenxue said, "What is eroding their bodies is not ordinary ice-attribute aura, but dark-attribute and ice-attribute demonic energy. This kind of cold energy has stronger penetrating power and can make people lose their ability to resist in a very short time before they have any time to react. Ordinary ice-attribute resistance is even useless."

Upon hearing this, Ye Ge fell silent, lost in thought.

Ice and dark attribute demonic energy...

This familiar attack method... could it be her?

"So..." Jiang Xiaoming broke out in a cold sweat: "There's another dark race besides the vampires in this forest?"

“Yes, and this person’s strength and combat experience are extremely terrifying.” Gao Shenxue said calmly, “In the Hundred Soul Forest, the level of all creatures is suppressed to the highest peak of the Hundred Soul Realm. This person, with the strength of the peak of the Hundred Soul Realm, killed fifty-three elite vampire soldiers who were also at the peak of the Hundred Soul Realm. Moreover, these vampires had almost no room to resist and were wiped out before they could even escape.”

"Hiss..." Jiang Xiaoming gasped, immediately tensing up and nervously looking around at the dark woods.

Among those of the same level, he came in 53 in one battle!

What terrifying power!

The other students also seemed somewhat uneasy.

Such a terrifying and dangerous existence was truly frightening to these novices!

Xia Xiyao asked, "But if they are all dark races, why do they kill each other?"

Gao Shenxue shook her head: "I don't know about that..."

Ye Ge then crouched down to check on Gao Qian and Zhang Kun.

The main purpose is to check whether these two people have been bitten by vampires.

After all, they were captured by a group of vampires. If they were bitten and their wounds weren't treated promptly, they risked becoming blood slaves!

However, when Ye Ge checked the attribute panels of the two, including their health, soul power, attributes, and status, he found that everything was normal. It seemed that the vampires did not intend to turn them into blood slaves, but only wanted to use them to lure him.

But if they're alright, why are these two still unconscious?

At this moment, two lines of red text suddenly popped up on the system panel in front of Ye Ge.

[Alert: An anomaly has been detected in the target system!]

[Warning: Security vulnerabilities detected in the target system!]

Ye Ge squinted.

System error?

“Their brains seem to have suffered some damage and they need some time to rest. Let’s find some classmates to carry them.” Ye Ge stood up after thinking for a moment. “I remember there’s a small town at the foot of the mountain north of Hundred Souls Forest. We can go there to rest for the night.”

In recent years, due to the Ye family's mining activities in the wilderness areas and the construction of high-speed rail, new small towns have gradually emerged in the original wilderness areas of Central and Outer Ring Roads. These towns are quite prosperous and have all kinds of modern facilities.

Gao Shenxue asked, "Aren't we going back immediately?"

Night Song said, "It's getting late, and the Hundred Souls Forest is too big. Although these vampire warriors are dead, we don't know if there are other dark races that have infiltrated. Many dark races are twice as strong at night as they are during the day. We should wait until daytime to leave."

Gao Shenxue nodded and said okay.

Two boys walked over and carried Zhang Kun and Gao Qian on their backs.

Ye Ge, Gao Shenxue, and Xia Xiyao led the way out of the giant tree forest, and the other students followed behind the three instructors.

"Shh-"

A graceful figure darted through the branches of the giant trees.

Jiang Xue stood on the trunk of the tallest tree, her long silver-white hair fluttering silently in the wind. Her deep, beautiful eyes, devoid of any discernible emotion, calmly watched Ye Ge and the others as they departed.
