Urban Demon Refining System

029 Mysterious Man in Black

"This kid is really persistent!" The vampire thought to himself as he fled forward, glancing back at Zhao Baichuan who was trailing not far behind him. Blood clones were a life-saving skill he awakened when he became a demon. By consuming a large amount of blood, he could split into several clones. The stronger he was, the more clones he could create. He could only create four clones at the moment.

However, this skill also has a flaw: only one of the four clones is the original body, and the other three are just for deception. If the real body is exposed, then it will be a tragedy. At this moment, the vampire became nervous when he saw Zhao Baichuan chasing after him.

"Boy! If you keep chasing me so relentlessly, don't blame me for being merciless!" Because it had just used its Blood Clone ability, the vampire wasn't running very fast and was quickly caught up by Zhao Baichuan. Helpless, it could only resort to bluffing and intimidation.

"Enough talk! Let's get started! Flower Fairy! Attack!"

"Flowers!" The flower fairy flew in front of Zhao Baichuan and used her flower-scattering skill again. A dense rain of petals appeared out of thin air, catching the vampire off guard.

"Damn it! How come there are so many of these annoying petals!" For some reason, ever since Baihuaxiu was successfully released by Zhao Baichuan, the flower fairy's strength has increased a lot. At this moment, she actually has the upper hand against the vampire who is severely injured. The vampire's body is like a small boat swaying in a storm, about to fall.

"Demon-Refining Teapot, put it away!" Upon seeing this scene, Zhao Baichuan was overjoyed and pointed his phone at the vampire.

With a "whoosh!", the vampire was sucked in, and Zhao Baichuan felt his phone shaking violently.

"Ding! Taming failed!" The shaking didn't last long, and soon the vampire pushed open the lid and escaped.

"Damn it! I will not be subdued by you!" The vampire glared at Zhao Baichuan with resentment, while also showing apprehension towards the demon-refining teapot. "Blood Clone! Swift!"

"Crack!" A tearing sound rang out, and the vampire split into three again, turning into three red bats no bigger than a palm, which fled in different directions.

"Damn it! It's that trick again!" Zhao Baichuan, who was just about to use the same trick again, was stunned. Without Baihua Xiu's guidance, he couldn't tell which one was the real vampire.

"Hua Hua?" The flower fairy stared at him blankly, unable to distinguish which one was the real Hua Hua.

"Go over there!" Zhao Baichuan gritted his teeth and pointed in a random direction. Since he couldn't tell if it was true or false, he had no choice but to guess.

"Hua Hua!" the flower fairy responded and took the lead in chasing after the direction the finger was pointing, as if this little guy had an extraordinary obsession with vampires.

"Hey! Wait for me!" With no other choice, Zhao Baichuan, who was already panting, had to grit his teeth and follow.

……

"Phew! Finally got rid of that brat!" The vampire's true form breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that there were no pursuers behind it, but it quickly became depressed again. "Damn it! I only have less than 10% of my strength left." Originally, this vampire was at the level of a great demon, but after splitting into two forms, it had now fallen to the level of a lesser demon, and its condition was extremely poor. It needed to find a place to recuperate as soon as possible.

"Does this mean I have no choice but to seek refuge with those black bats?" Sensing his current physical condition, the vampire grew anxious. His lair had just been raided, and he was now weaker than even an ordinary minor demon. After a moment's thought, he struggled to fly towards Lefu Square.

It turns out that these vampires and those bat demons have a connection. Hundreds of years ago, they were the same race living in Dead Man's Hill. However, due to different evolutionary paths, they split into the two branches we see today: bat demons and vampires. The vampire race suffered heavy losses, leaving only one survivor clinging to life, while the bat demons were forced to migrate and form the groups in Lefu Square. Of course, "bat demon" and "vampire" are just names used in the game's encyclopedia. Within their community, they refer to each other as Blood Bat and Black Bat. At this point, the vampires, having nowhere else to turn, decided to seek refuge with the bat demons.

"Although those black bats are mean and mean, they probably won't harm me out of consideration for our kind. Hmph, I'll endure this humiliation for now. Once I recover my strength, I'll definitely come back to kill them!" The vampire glanced one last time in the direction of the city hospital before flying towards Lefu Square.

"Your Majesty! That's how it is! The matter of Tanlong really can't be entirely blamed on me!" Under a billboard not far from the city hospital, two men were talking about something. One of them was the man in the baseball cap who had dealt with Zhao Baichuan before!

"Alright, I understand. You don't need to explain. I remember both your merits and demerits!" The one who spoke was a man in black with a cold voice, who appeared to be the leader of the gang.

"Thank you for sparing my life, Your Majesty!" The man in the baseball cap breathed a sigh of relief. He had really gotten himself into big trouble this time, but it seemed that this man didn't intend to hold him accountable.

"Hmph! I'll let you off this time, but I hope there won't be a next time!"

"I promise it won't happen again!" the baseball cap assured him confidently.

"Alright, you don't need to keep rambling on. Tell me what happened again!"

"Yes!" The man in the baseball cap nodded hurriedly and recounted the entire encounter with Zhao Baichuan. However, before he could finish, he was interrupted by the man in black, who waved his hand and said, "Wait a minute!"

"Uh, yes!" The man in the baseball cap quickly stopped talking and looked at him nervously.

"Interesting! A vampire tainted with the aura of the sealing stone? Does Penglai also suppress such a weakling?" The man in black swung his right hand into the air, and a blood-red bat was pulled over—it was the vampire who had just escaped from Zhao Baichuan's grasp!

"Who...who are you? Why are you grabbing me!" The vampire, who was originally about to seek refuge with the bat demon, was suddenly shocked and looked at the man who had grabbed him in a panic. The aura emanating from this man was unfathomable, and he had only felt it from that mysterious fairy before.

"Who are you? How could you be suppressed by Penglai?" the man in black asked.

"Penglai? What's that?" The vampire was taken aback.

"Huh?" The man in black was also somewhat taken aback, but then he realized, "So the source was here!" He pointed at the vampire's throat, and a red petal came out of its mouth.

"Such a rich aura of immortality. It seems the owner of these petals is quite a beauty." The man in black didn't mind that the petals were taken from a vampire's mouth. Instead, he held them to his nose, sniffed them a few times, and a look of intoxication appeared on his face. "The aura of immortality is strong, but it can't mask the scent of the mortal world. So you're a fairy descended from heaven! Hehe, if I eat you, I can recover fifty percent of my strength!"

"Ah! What are you doing!" the vampire suddenly cried out in terror, because the man in black actually picked it up and slowly put it into his mouth.

"Heh! Don't worry! It's just gathering some intelligence!" The man in black revealed a cruel smile. "Crunch, crunch!" The next moment, he slowly chewed it up and swallowed it, just like eating a meal!
