Chapter 465: 161.Winter Fox Xiani VS Witch Cui Si_2

Facing Lady Cui Si’s inquiry, the current Thorns Duke shrugged, saying in a casual tone:

"Duchess Sofie took the wrong side during the Cold Moon coup thirty years ago. Regrettably, for the sake of our family’s prosperity, we loyal descendants had to endure the pain and watch her enter into the embrace of the Mother of Night, under the siege of the guardian monks from the Winter Wolves Religion."

You seem to be a senior, so let me, the younger one, introduce myself.

My name is Anastasia Shani Romanov Toreze.

You can call me Shani."

This Duchess of Thorns appeared to be straightforward, well-behaved, her unique long braids even gave a gentle feeling, but she was undoubtedly an experienced hand. Her slight digs at Cui Si’s age, with phrases like "senior" and "young", were slyly vicious.

While it might be unnecessary to mention age in front of an eternal creature like vampires, from a woman’s perspective, it was an absolute taboo topic to be touched.

Cui Si understood the mockery in the words of the woman standing in front of her.

A more intense flame rose in her heart, but she quickly realized she was conversing with a descendant of Jealousy who could manipulate emotions, this emotional change in herself was abnormal!

She immediately clenched her fingers to release her spiritual energy, blocking her own emotions, causing the Duchess Shani standing below to blink. A flicker of regret crossed her grey-blue eyes.

What a pity.

She almost triggered the old woman’s anger.

Just a little bit more.

Well, it is truly not easy to deal with a senior like her.

"Cui Si·Carvendina·Ga·Lorin·Lusenbura, you should have heard of this name, if before you instigated the betrayal, my poor Sofie indeed had complete trust in you."

Cui Si slowly descended, flapping her giant blood wings.

Murphy, standing behind her, also suppressed his fluctuating emotions and followed suit, with the blade of desire in his hand standing guard beside Cui Si.

She introduced herself, and the Duchess of Thorns in front of her showed a surprised expression, saying:

"A spirit who had been dead for over a hundred years has crawled out of the grave again? Duchess Sofie mentioned you many times. She said you were one of her few friends and respected kinsfolk. Your Blood Vulture Clan is indeed unique.

Both the clan leader and the earl are like this."

"You seem to be different too, Shani."

Cui Si narrowed her eyes and looked at the unfriendly woman in front of her.

Her ancient memory was churning. She quickly found a clue in the face of Duchess Shani, then she asked without revealing her true feelings:

"What is your relationship with ’Hero King’ Boris, who resisted the second Black Disaster and then took North Wind Castle to establish the Kingdom of Nordtoff? Your eyes and facial contours remind me of him, as well as the unique way you speak; the strange rolling sound at the end of your sentences.

They’re simply identical."

"What an incredible senior, and an ’elder’ at that."

Duchess Shani did not care at all that Cui Si had uncovered her background. In vampire society, where lifespans can easily reach hundreds of years, one needs to be tough to survive.

Such as bragging about legendary stories from hundreds of years ago to others, then having a vampire call you a liar because they were there when it happened, such incidents are almost daily routines in vampire society.

Time!

For these immortal beings of the night, this cold thing has no meaning, just like every official member of each family is a walking history book.

Therefore, in response to Cui Si’s question, Duchess Shani openly admitted:

"I am the youngest daughter of the Hero King, Boris. I was born during the second month of my father’s siege at North Wind Castle in 740 AD amidst the winter chill. I should have spent my life as a joyful princess.

However, when I was 40 years old, my father died in a border war, and his kingdom was taken over by power-hungry nobles.

It was then that I was found by Lady Sofie and became a member of the Thorns Travelers.

From this, you can guess why I ’bully’ young ones like Earl Cardman with the title of Duchess.

This is not an issue between two families, Lady Cui si.

This is just a personal grudge!

It’s just a parent running to regain face for her weak great-great-grandson who has been caged by a stranger, that’s all."

Murphy and Cui Si had no reply to this.

Fine.

This blonde woman deviously shifted the concept of her invasion of Blood Vulture territory into a personal grudge, and there indeed was a blood relationship between the two people separated by over three hundred years.

Murphy probably knew from all this where the eloquent Count Bai of White Mountain learned his rhetoric from.

He was staring at this smiling but incredibly dangerous blonde woman in front of him. He realized her small tongue seemed to be incredibly versatile...

However, Cui Si’s attention had now shifted to something else.

She was a historian.

Though not specifically specializing in human history, due to her own experiences, she was very well-versed in the details of the establishment of the Nordtoff Kingdom.

Duchess Shani did not reveal much information, but it was enough for Cui Si to understand the real reasons for her old friend Duchess Sofie’s eternal silence and the real situation of Nordtoff Kingdom.

She looked at Shani with a "youth can be terrible" expression and said:
