This guy is even more outrageous than Emperor Ensar.

Lived for thousands of years, yet found an Extraordinary in their early thirties to be his wife.

Shameless!

Seeing Chloe's gaze becoming increasingly strange, Liszt coughed and showed an awkward expression.

After entering the hall, Chloe muttered softly:

"You shameless!"

Liszt said earnestly:

"What do you mean I'm shameless? We are genuinely in love."

"May I ask how old you are this year?"

"Eighteen years plus over seven hundred sixty thousand days?"

"Pfft, over two thousand years old, even older than most elders of the Elf Race!"

"So what if I've lived long? I'm proud of my longevity."

"You're not just fooling her, are you?"

"What are you thinking? Is it possible that I've been single for over two thousand years."

"That's a really sad story, allow me to laugh."

Chloe quickly moved past this topic.

He had known Liszt for many years and considered himself fairly familiar with his character.

Liszt was the kind of person who would work tirelessly for the Blood Race, even disregarding himself.

Considering the many serious issues the Blood Race had faced over the years, he may indeed not have considered marriage.

As for why he changed his mind now... it's simple logic. Because earlier, in his view, the Blood Angel plan was just one step away from success.

Since that was the case, he could indeed start considering his own life.

However, that final step became a nightmare Liszt couldn't overcome.

So Chloe decisively skipped over this topic.

"How are things with the Blood Race?"

"Not so good. Some people don't understand how I could use such harsh measures... I can understand them.

They just don't know how crazed clan members become once infected by the Abyss."

Chloe sighed.

The ecology of the Abyss is too cruel.

A large number of demons die from internal conflict.

It's widely said that devils are the ones who kill the most demons, but no one ever considers how many of their own kind a demon must kill to grow in the shortest time?

The problem for the Blood Race is even more severe.

Vampires in the Abyss could at least barely maintain their basic sanity before the Crimson Dominator fell.

After the Crimson Dominator's fall, they quickly began internal carnage.

Unlike other demons.

The power of vampires comes from the Red Power.

And the Red Power is hidden within their bodies.

Thus, vampires in the Abyss evolved into an incredibly brutal ecosystem — cannibalism.

Yes.

In order to obtain the most suitable source of power, they choose to devour their kind.

Some vampires who have just procreated, to replenish their energy, would even eat the infants directly.

Everywhere were pieces of limbs. When Liszt arrived, he even saw a vampire gnawing with relish on its own child's half-skull.

Such hellish scenes, it would be better to just kill them.

The Blood Race among The Stars is mostly still normal.

Chloe, having frequent dealings with Liszt, had seen quite a few.

Aside from being somewhat pale, they look no different from ordinary people.

Who would have thought that being tainted by the Abyss, they would fall to such a state.

"Speak up, you wouldn't have called me over for no reason, is there something you need to discuss with me?"

Chloe thought Liszt wouldn't call him here for no reason.

Perhaps there was some difficult situation that needed his consultation and handling.

Liszt was silent for a moment and said:

"The situation with the Blood Race is more difficult to solve than I imagined."

"Did some escape?"

"Yes, the Blood Race has cultivated four Demigods over the years. Except for me and another companion in charge of the Western Continent, the other two have encountered problems, but I only had time to deal with one."

Chloe nodded.

Previously, Liszt had risked his life killing a Demigod, resulting in irreversible damage to his body.

It was also during the pursuit of that Demigod that his eyes were seriously injured.

Of course.

Such physical injuries are, in fact, easier to heal for the Blood Race.

It's just that Liszt refuses to let the wounds heal.

Chloe frowned and said:

"But didn't you force that Demigod's Blood God's true form to shatter?"

He didn't continue to be involved earlier because, after that Demigod's Blood God's true form was shattered, his threat level had fallen to Legend.

And for Chloe, killing a Legend wasn't that hard.

"True, for you and me, he's no longer a threat, but it's not him I fear."

"You're worried that if he can't defeat you, he'll target other members of the Blood Race?"

"Yes."

Chloe frowned.

That's indeed a troublesome matter.

Unlike the customs here with The Stars.

Even when the tribes from The Stars cross the line, they still have a baseline.

And this baseline is usually much higher than the upper limit of the Abyssal Demons.

These vampires who've fallen into the Abyss, their baseline, let's just say is nonexistent.

There is nothing they wouldn't dare to envision.

Nothing they wouldn't dare to do.

What's more, Liszt's fellow tribesman wasn't a nobody before they fell; they were a mainstay of the Blood Race.

If it were merely native abyss-born, the demons' threat level wouldn't be as high.

This traitor, however, his damage to the rear is greater than that of ordinary demons.

Those in the know, know.

Those who have become traitors know that once their own kind stages a comeback, reckoning is inevitable.

Hence, the stronger the Blood Race, the more afraid they become, fear that they haven't wiped out the Blood Race clean.

Fearing that each night is spent in dread and that upon waking up the next day, they find a gun pointed at them.

If they don't quickly escape, when the blade falls, it might be their own head that goes flying.

Mhm.

The traitors he mentioned are Blood Race, the escapees are from the Abyss (confirmed).

Liszt's concerns aren't unfounded.

The demons' baseline is already very low.

The baseline of those embracing the Abyss, traitors, is even lower.

"Do you want me to help you..."

"Exactly..."

"Help you kill that vampire?"

"Help me protect the princess more."

"..."

"..."

The scene fell into an indescribable silence.

Liszt didn't want to speak anymore.

Chloe stopped smiling too.

It's just awkward.

Indescribably awkward.

"You actually want to shirk responsibility!" Chloe said angrily, "Nine to five is my recognized limit."

Liszt coughed and said:

"I have no choice either, I have to find that guy as soon as possible, there's no logic in defending against a thief for a thousand days."

Chloe said helplessly:

"Then hurry up, I..."

"Daddy." A crisp voice rang out.

A girl with pigtails, carrying a school bag, ran in and leaped into Liszt's arms.

Chloe's smile gradually stiffened.

Well well well.

Well done, Liszt.

He was just thinking about this guy sprouting new shoots, how did he never consider he might have even completed the great task of reproduction?

Seemingly aware that she had intruded at an inappropriate time, the girl looked up at Chloe.

After a moment, she embarrassedly hid behind Liszt.

"Daddy, who's he?"

"He's Daddy's colleague, Xiaojie, come and say hello to Uncle."

Chloe's smile became strained:

"What the heck is Uncle, call him big brother."

He turned his head and said to the girl called Xiaojie:

"Don't listen to your dad, I'm not that much older than you, just call me brother."

Xiaojie cautiously poked her head out and said:

"Hello, big brother."

"Mm, very good."

He patted Xiaojie's head, looking at Liszt with more disdain.

Xiaojie's age was apparent.

Which meant, the time Liszt's partner gave birth to the child...

Damn.

Could you have managed this two years earlier?

If you had done it two years earlier, you would have broken the law!

Old Liszt was just unreasonable.

"Xiaojie, Daddy has something to do, go back to your room first, I'll come find you when I'm done."

"Okay." The little girl said in a sweet voice, then turned and ran off.

The two chatted a bit more and finalized the arrangements for the near future.

As they were about to finish, Xiaojie's head popped up again from the corner of the living room.

Seeing the two were almost done, she ran over.

Chloe was puzzled about what she wanted, then saw Xiaojie place a cupcake in Liszt's palm.

"One for Daddy."

Then she placed another one in Chloe's palm.

"One for brother."

Finally, she happily picked up the last cupcake and started eating:

"One for me."

With the little cup in her mouth, she said indistinctly:

"I'll go pour some water for you, Daddy, Mom asked if big brother wants to eat at home, she just came back with groceries."

Chloe patted her head and said:

"No need, no need, I'm leaving soon."

Xiaojie tilted her head and said:

"But isn't today a rest day? Mom doesn't have to work today, are you sure you won't stay for dinner?"

Liszt irritably patted his daughter's head and said:

"Don't disturb your big brother's work."

Xiaojie wondered:

"Daddy, did you push your work onto someone else again?"

"What do you mean again, this is called letting the right person handle the right job."

...

In the end, Chloe stayed for dinner at Liszt's place.

Before leaving.

Chloe looked at Liszt, who was seeing him off, and said:

"Your wife is really nice."

"Yes, indeed."

"It's a pity she's with you."

"Get lost, get lost!"

Liszt lit a cigarette and after it ignited, he said:

"Chloe, rather than that, I think you should be more careful yourself."

"Hm?"

"I heard the old folks at the royal court have taken notice of you."

Implying that he might now be on some [candidacy list].

But Chloe shook his head indifferently and said:

"It doesn't matter, with the princess's temperament, she'll help me sort this out."

He knew the princess all too well.

If those old geezers dared to overstep, her reaction would only be bigger than his.

Chloe waved farewell to Liszt, signaling him to go back and see his wife.

But before going to work, he had something else to do.

For instance, visiting the Meifei Family to see the siblings.

...

Location: Marquis Meifei's Mansion

Looking at Harut dressed in formal attire, Chloe felt quite moved:

"You now somewhat have the aura of a marquis."

Harut turned his head to look at his younger brother, hesitated for a moment, and said:

"Are you... doing well over there in the royal court?"

"Very well, well-fed and warm, it's just a bit annoying to work."

"...If you really don't like it, come back, our life is stable now, there's no need to lick blood from the blade at the royal court."

"So generous? If I come back, are you providing cultivation resources?"

"Yes, I will try my best to find resources for you."

"Don't joke." A hint of helplessness flashed in Chloe's eyes, "Marquis Mansion can't afford it."

"..." Harut was stunned for a moment and said, "Do you have some misunderstanding about the wealth of the Marquis Mansion?"

"No, I'm very clear on how much money the Marquis Mansion has." Chloe shook his head and said, "It's you who misunderstands my strength."

"Eh?"

"I'm now aiming for Legend."
