Even hybrid monsters have their day

Huangfu Aoxuan also seemed to be saying that if you didn't shut up, he wouldn't be polite.

Peng Yuxian's eyes flickered and changed, and he took another big breath before finally letting go as if he was trying his best to restrain himself.

Before he withdrew his mouth from her arm, Peng Yuxian lingered, lightly licking away the drops of blood seeping from the teeth marks on her arm. Only then did he release his grip on her arm, a playful smile returning to his lips.

"I didn't expect you to be willing to save me." He licked his lips, sucking the last drop of blood from the corner of his mouth. For some reason, Geng Miaowan always felt that he looked incredibly alluring when he did this, but unfortunately, she wasn't sold on it.

As soon as her arm was free, she quickly pulled it back. On her fair arm, around the two deep teeth marks, there was a suspicious pinkish-red mark. There was no such mark when he bit her neck last time.

She wasn't stupid; even if she hadn't eaten pork, she'd surely seen pigs walk. This guy was definitely doing it on purpose, but she could only pretend she hadn't seen it and lower her arm. Because if she pressed him for details, he would definitely use the opportunity to laugh at her.

She hadn't expected that after saving him, she would have to swallow this bitter pill in silence. Geng Miaowan felt extremely frustrated. She stood up and said indifferently, "Since you're alright, I'll be leaving."

Ji Hongzhang helped Peng Yuxian up. "Let's go too."

Although he had survived, he was still very weak and needed to rest for a while. Without waiting for his reply, Ji Hongzhang helped him into the darkness.

Peng Yuxian knew that he was worried about his health. Although he was a little disappointed that he couldn't stay with Geng Miaowan a little longer, he didn't say anything and let him leave.

Geng Miaowan glared angrily at the two non-human figures walking further and further away. She had saved him, and instead of thanking him, they hadn't even said goodbye. They had absolutely no manners. She sighed softly, deciding not to argue with them, and turned to Xu Ruwen and Huangfu Aoxuan, saying, "Let's go too."

However, she then realized that she was unsteady on her feet and almost fell to the ground after taking only one step. Fortunately, Xu Ruwen reacted quickly and caught her in time, preventing an embarrassing situation.

"Serves you right!" Huangfu Aoxuan said without a shred of sympathy.

Just then, Peng Yuxian's voice came from not far behind. "Thank you, Wan'er!" His voice seemed to carry a hint of laughter, indicating that he was in a very good mood.

Geng Miaowan paused for a moment, a faint smile appearing on her face.

Huangfu Aoxuan scoffed dismissively. Who wanted his thanks?

Xu Ruwen was the most furious. He almost wanted to rush into the darkness, drag Peng Yuxian out, and beat him up, then coldly warn him, "How dare you call him Wan'er!" However, the reality was that he couldn't even beat Ji Hongzhang, who was standing next to Peng Yuxian, let alone Peng Yuxian. So he gave up on the idea.

Because they were carrying Geng Miaowan, they were too weak to move quickly.

About five or six minutes later, a serious expression appeared on Geng Miaowan's face. She turned her head and asked softly, "Have you sensed anything around us?"

Xu Ruwen and Huangfu Aoxuan exchanged a glance and nodded. "We might not be able to leave."

Not long after Peng Yuxian and the others left, they sensed something surrounding them. At that time, those things seemed somewhat afraid of something and dared not approach. Now, however, they looked ready to attack at any moment.

Geng Miaowan's expression changed; it wasn't her imagination after all. The things surrounding them seemed the same as those surrounding Peng Yuxian and his group. But upon closer inspection, something seemed different.

Lost in thought, she was suddenly reminded by Huangfu Aoxuan, "Be careful. They're here!"

Ji Hongzhang helped Peng Yuxian walk very fast, so fast that Peng Yuxian couldn't help but wonder if he was hiding something from him. His slowly returning senses allowed him to feel the things stirring in the darkness. He wasn't afraid of them, because he knew that those things in the darkness were low-level vampires scattered outside.

Outsiders might not know that there are also ranks in the vampire world, and the standard for differentiation is the completeness of the mutation. He and Ji Hongzhang belong to the highest rank. They are Level 1 mutated vampires, whose bodies have a strong ability to accept the virus and whose mutations are almost perfect. Below them are Level 2 mutated vampires, and Level 3 mutated vampires.

Super-tier mutant vampires possess a unique ability: they can transform people into vampires. However, this ability only applies to super-tier mutant vampires one level below them; other levels are not susceptible. In other words, a person bitten by a super-tier mutant vampire will not be infected with the virus unless they are transformed.

However, if bitten by someone of another level, regardless of who it is, as long as they don't die, they will become a Level 1 mutant. This is a mutant completely different from the previous three levels. They can no longer be called vampires because they have no thoughts or emotions; they are just empty shells with nothing but a thirst for blood.

Those that usually roam the suburbs belong to this category.

Peng Yuxian is a being far superior to these mutants, someone they cannot match. Therefore, due to the absolute difference in strength, the mutants would normally not approach them on their own initiative. But today, they are unusually gathering around them. Why is that?

Gradually, he noticed that the mutants seemed to be moving in unison in the direction behind him.

There is……

Thinking of Geng Miaowan, he suddenly turned to look at Ji Hongzhang, "Did you know all along that Geng Miaowan's blood attracted a large number of mutants?"

Although it was a question, he was almost certain, because with Ji Hongzhang's strength, how could he not have sensed it?

Sure enough, Ji Hongzhang readily admitted, "Not bad."

"Then why didn't you say so? You knew perfectly well that Geng Miaowan..."

"What she does is none of my business!" Ji Hongzhang interrupted him angrily, a grim expression on his face. "And what's it to you?"

"I..." Peng Yuxian was momentarily speechless at his question. Indeed, for someone they had only met a few times, their relationship was no better than that of strangers. "But she just saved my life!"

This was the only reason he could think of.

“That’s what she should have done. If it weren’t for her, how would you have gotten infected?” Ji Hongzhang remained resentful about the matter. “Anyway, I don’t trust her!” (To be continued.)
