The Villain Saint is my secondary account

As Ye Xiao's cold words fell, after a moment of silence, Alex turned around with wide eyes and a roar, using all his divine power to summon dazzling lightning to coat his body.

But this final counterattack was nothing but a futile struggle in Ye Xiao's eyes. He quietly sheathed the "Shadow Chaser," whose blade was still partially exposed, and then left without looking back.

Alex stared at Ye Xiao's back, his blood-covered figure suddenly stopping, as if a stop button had been pressed, remaining frozen in his turned position for a moment.

Falling light.

Half a second later, thousands of blades flashed, instantly disintegrating Alex's ravaged body into pieces.

Ye Xiao stretched, and the chubby little cat peeked out from her collar again, but for some reason, the golden hair on her head stood up like a hedgehog, one hair after another. "I said, Ye Xiao, couldn't you have dodged better when you hit me? I was almost electrocuted!"

"Hey, it's not my fault. I wanted to dodge too, but the lightning bolts shot out so fast, what could I do?"

Ye Xiao reluctantly smoothed down the soft fur standing up on the cat's head.

"Bullshit! You clearly just wanted to show off by taking those two steps in the minefield on purpose, otherwise you wouldn't have gotten electrocuted!"

Greta opened her mouth wide and meowed.

"You don't understand, that's to put psychological pressure on him. Even if you hit him, you have to make him feel like you didn't hit him, otherwise why would he panic?"

Ye Xiao smiled, then suddenly frowned. "Wait a minute? I didn't notice before, how come this is also this thing?"

"What's wrong?"

"Greedy asked."

"This necklace."

Ye Xiao took the necklace with the deep red gemstone hanging from her pocket into her palm. "Why is this also labeled... Twilight Eyes?"

"Twilight Eyes?"

Greta tilted her head. "Was it your 'system' that said that?"

"Um……"

Ye Xiao nodded, then, as if realizing something, quickly looked up and turned his gaze to the altar in front of him.

The massive, blood-red magic circle was still slowly operating, and the crimson moon in the night sky continued to rise.

His eyes widened, and with a thought, he brought up the system panel. The task pop-up with the four large characters "Light of the Fallen Moon" was still at the top.

Damn it, this mission isn't over yet.

Chapter 179 When the Moon Rises

Ye Xiao hurriedly ran back to the place where he had just left so casually, and searched through Alex's mangled corpse. But apart from a parchment book that occasionally crackled with electricity, all that was left were some miscellaneous items such as blood vials and gold coins.

He opened the parchment book and hastily flipped through a few pages. Although the densely packed contents were about the resurrection ritual, apart from mentioning that the Blood Crown Heart was a deep red gemstone necklace kept by a wandering vampire, there was no other content.

"what happened?"

Ye Xiao began to sense something was wrong. The huge magic array was still operating. He first put Greta on the ground and ran up the altar in three steps, but the two girls sleeping on the ground still looked peaceful.

He first bent down and examined the princess's forehead, finding nothing amiss. Then he reached out to Evelina's forehead, but before he could make contact, a cold sensation suddenly came from his fingertips. Then, a flash of blood-red light appeared, and Ye Xiao's fingers trembled violently, causing him to fly backward.

Is this girl protected by a protective barrier?

"Ye Xiao! Are you alright!?"

Greta, who had returned to human form, saw Ye Xiao's condition and called out to him with some concern.

But Ye Xiao's brows furrowed in pain, feeling as if the veins in his right hand were beginning to freeze, an uncontrollable chill rising up his arm.

He hurriedly pulled out the staff from his back with his left hand and tapped it on the ground, chanting a spell to summon "Healing Holy Light." A deep red magic circle opened, and a black tentacle jumped out from it and attached itself to Ye Xiao's right arm.

The life force was slowly injected, which finally made Ye Xiao feel much better.

He staggered to his feet, looking at Evelyna on the altar with disbelief. As the blood moon gradually rose into the night sky, she seemed to be supported by an invisible hand, slowly floating upright from the ground.

"Why is the Blood Coroner Heart Resurrection Ceremony still underway?"

Ye Xiao was taken aback, but he quickly realized that the necklace, just as the system had indicated, was probably not the so-called Blood Crown Heart at all.

But even Alex didn't know about this, otherwise he wouldn't have needed to risk his life to snatch it from Ye Xiao.

If Alex didn't know... then those vampires lied to him? No, why would they lie about something like that? They all share the same goal; what benefit would those vampires gain from lying to Alex about protecting the wrong person?

Therefore, there is only one possibility... Even the vampires don't know about this.

A sudden, extremely ominous premonition rose in Ye Xiao's heart. Without much hesitation, he rushed up to the altar, dragged the princess and the werewolf of unknown origin down with one hand each, and then turned around and summoned the Destiny Star Chart, twelve black sparks flashing in front of his chest.

The charging and cooling of this thing is related to the spells recorded on it. Using Greta's powerful hellish spells, once fully charged, it can only be used about three times a week.

He had used it three times in the Seven Seas City before, and today he has just recharged enough to release it again.

Just now, in order to deal with Alex, Ye Xiao didn't consider using it because the opponent was too fast and he didn't have a chance to chant for a long time. He didn't expect to save one, which can be used to deal with the current situation.

"I pledge my blood, my soul, and all I humbly offer as a sacrifice for the sins of this world, invoking in the eternal night the greedy ruler of hell, the king who commands slaughter—"

As Ye Xiao chanted, massive magic arrays, imbued with the aura of hell, unfolded in the air, one after another.

"Mammon, the Demon God, grant me flames that tear the netherworld apart, to burn this land to ashes!!!"

As soon as the words fell, the heavens and earth trembled, and a dark crack opened in the middle of the magic array, like an abyss opening its eyes.

The massive, mountain-like Cerberus burst forth from the rift, its three enormous jaws emitting a deafening roar as it simultaneously spewed crimson flames at Evelina on the altar.

Watching the hellfire, capable of destroying almost everything, raging on the altar, the towering flames even melting through the barrier in the sky, Ye Xiao's expression was somewhat complicated.

Greta stood beside him, her small hand holding Ye Xiao's blood-stained hand. "Sigh, in the end, we still have to take action to deal with that girl."

"There's no other way. If it were just me alone, I might try again... but I can't gamble the whole of Fog City on whether my idea will work."

"Maybe this is fate."

Greta gently patted Ye Xiao's hand with her soft little palm to comfort him.

“Evelina…”

Suddenly, a murmur came from the side. Ye Xiao turned his head and saw that the werewolf he had dragged out had opened its eyes. "Oh, you can speak human language?"

However, the werewolf Lucas ignored Ye Xiao. He was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and saw the fierce flames on the altar. He jumped up from the ground with a scream and charged forward, shouting, "Evelina!!!"

"Hey buddy, are you crazy?"

Ye Xiao grabbed the werewolf's shoulder, but the latter, who was in a frenzy, was too strong and broke free of Ye Xiao's grasp in an instant.

Lucas sprinted on all fours to the front of the towering flames, but just as Ye Xiao was astonished, thinking that the guy was about to be engulfed by the flames, a chilling aura suddenly erupted from the fire.

"boom"

Like an extreme cold storm, it instantly swept across the entire area, extinguishing the hellfire while sending Lucas's body flying like a falling leaf.

Ye Xiao reacted quickly, pulling out his long sword and plunging it into the ground to barely steady himself. The little maid also grabbed the hem of Ye Xiao's trench coat to prevent her petite body from being blown away.

Even so, beneath Ye Xiao's bangs, ruffled by the wind, her deep black eyes still revealed an expression of disbelief.

The reason was that the girl in the wine-red dress was still floating in mid-air with her eyes closed on the altar, unharmed.

This is... hellfire!

Ye Xiao's lips twitched. This was a power that even Ella couldn't achieve, and yet the most powerful spell he could use hadn't harmed this guy at all?

How are we supposed to fight like this?

Lucas, the werewolf, staggered to his feet, his eyes lit up with joy, but then turned to grief and indignation. "Evelina, I'm coming to save you!"

"Dude, can you protect yourself first? And who are you anyway?"

Ye Xiao couldn't hold back any longer as he watched Lucas rush towards the icy girl on the altar like a moth drawn to a flame.

Then, without any surprise, the guy was pierced through by a blood-stained spike that rose from the ground, and was skewered in mid-air like a piece of roasted meat on a bamboo stick.

But it must be said that werewolves are a race with really strong vitality. Even so, that guy could still shout "Evelina" from the sky.

Ye Xiao broke out in a cold sweat, drew his long sword, and gazed at the girl's figure, which seemed to be supported by an invisible force and slowly floated up in mid-air, merging with the blood moon. The clues he had seen earlier slowly converged in his mind at this moment.

Then, in shock, Ye Xiao gradually understood everything, his throat trembling.

"...We've been deceived. No, not just us. The people of Valen, even the corporations and the vampires, everyone has been deceived by this guy."

"There was no Blood Crown Heart or any resurrection ritual at all... Queen Isadora of the Vampires, she's never dead!"

As Ye Xiao finished speaking, he suddenly saw a slight twitch at the corner of the girl's lips on her pale face, which had been cold and expressionless.

"Interesting...human, you're quite clever."

Chapter 180 Resurgence

The girl's tone was calm and delicate, like a gentle breeze in the forest, yet it made Ye Xiao's heart tremble.

In an instant, an ominous chill swept across the entire area, engulfing the flames leaping around the rooftop.

The time for moonrise has finally arrived.

As the blood moon hung high in the sky, the red barrier surrounding the altar slowly melted away, and the whole world seemed to hold its breath in anticipation. All things sank into a deathly silence, with only the whispering of falling snow and the chill rising from the depths of the earth, piercing the deepest corners of the heart.

Ye Xiao's forehead was covered in a fine layer of cold sweat, and his gaze pierced through the swirling snowflakes, settling on the ancient altar.

Amidst the swirling snowflakes, "Evelina," floating in the air, slowly opened her eyes. Her deep gaze was no longer empty and lifeless, but instead revealed a cold and arrogant disdain.

The crimson moonlight seemed to be drawn in, condensing and binding into threads that draped over the girl's fair shoulders and neck, transforming into a layer of blood-red gauze, like a king's cloak.

Against the backdrop of the enormous moon gradually rising in the night sky, the vampire queen, Isadora Miraca, a deity of the Golden Age recorded four thousand years ago, the last true ancestor, a legend only heard of in mythological books, finally descended at this moment.

……

"Maid, do we have a chance of winning if we attack together?"

Ye Xiao swallowed hard and asked Greta in a low voice.

"Well……"

Greta's expression was conflicted. "The gods who have survived from the Golden Age and are still active in the mortal realm are either shackled by the Holy Light Laws of the God of Light, or they have been incorporated into His ranks of gods and can no longer leave the temple at will."

"But this one wasn't suppressed in any way, and unsurprisingly, this place is already her divine realm... to deal with the ancient gods within her own divine realm..."

"How so...?"

Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow.

"I wouldn't say it's difficult, but it's absolutely impossible to win."

Greta shrugged. "How about I talk to her? Maybe she'll let me take your soul back to hell for my sake."

"Hey, you're supposed to be an ancient demon god! Isn't it a bit too quick for you to just surrender like this!"

Ye Xiao's lips twitched, and then he noticed out of the corner of his eye that, perhaps influenced by the Empress's power, the vampires of the Mist City and Princess Alina at his feet had slowly opened their eyes from their coma.

“Evelina…”

The chieftain of the Black Mountain clan was stunned when he saw his daughter's appearance, and then his voice trembled slightly, "Your Majesty...?"

"His Majesty……!"

Unexpectedly, Alina, who had just woken up, was even more excited. She knelt down, her eyes filled with barely suppressed excitement, and exclaimed, "You...you're back!"

Isadora's lowered gaze swept over the scene, and with a slender step beneath her skirt, she slowly descended from mid-air. Her toes touched the floor tiles, and a layer of frost instantly spread out like a carpet, freezing the bricks several meters above her into ice.

All the vampires of Mist City, regardless of their past intentions, now bowed and kowtowed to their supreme empress, even though they were bound by shackles, daring not to disobey in the slightest.

"Ah."

Then, a soft, indifferent murmur followed, which seemed to be the Empress's reply to her descendants.

She slowly walked past the kneeling vampires, fixing her cold gaze on Ye Xiao. After a brief pause, a hint of amusement crept into her voice, "You shouldn't be a witcher belonging to the Valen royal family. State your name."

As the other person approached step by step, Ye Xiao quietly placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, his heart filled with vigilance. "Your Majesty, I am merely an adventurer from another land, my reputation is insignificant."

"Okay, that's as you wish."

Isadora nodded slightly. "Inscribed on the tombstone as an unsung hero."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Xiao felt a chill run down his spine, and a sense of impending danger surged forth like a raging torrent.

"Snapped"

Without warning, spikes formed from congealed blood rose from the ground and pierced Ye Xiao's body.

But it turned out to be just an afterimage. The real Ye Xiao had dodged at the last second, then used the momentum to leap up, gripped the hilt of his sword tightly, and together with the sharp sword energy formed by the afterimage, rushed towards the motionless Isadora like a shooting star.

The Queen's deep red eyes reflected Ye Xiao's approaching figure, and a meaningful smile appeared on her lips. Then, with a gentle wave of her sleeve, a vast and boundless extreme ice storm was created out of thin air.
