Chapter 1135: Chapter 1135: New and Old Grudges

Leaving Gu Weihai like that weighed heavily on Gu Chuanshan’s heart, and he wanted to help him, but Gu Weihai waved him off, "Chuanshan, you know, I’ve always liked you, my nephew. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have made up my mind to sacrifice myself for the Gu family. Remember, everything we do is for the next generation, so don’t worry about me, you all need to survive."

Time was pressing, and Xue Wang, whose injuries had almost healed, stood up, revealing a terrifying visage.

"Thanks, second granduncle, I will not forget your kindness, rest assured, with me around, Helen will be safe," Gu Fan said, making a firm decision and taking Gu Chuanshan to jump out of the window.

Watching Gu Fan and Gu Chuanshan finally leave, Gu Weihai smiled contentedly, then collapsed.

Xue Wang came over, glanced at Gu Weihai, then sighed, "He didn’t die by our hands, and Helen can’t blame us."

Lord Xiong stood by the window, watching Gu Fan escape into the forest, and couldn’t help but laugh, "It’s night now, you vampires can move freely, you shouldn’t need my help."

"Of course, Lord Xiong, please watch," Xue Wang said, then turned to look at Xue Lang and the others, whose injuries had mostly healed, and then ordered, "Go after them, catch them."

"Yes!" Xue Lang and the others were eager, leaping out of the window, landing heavily, and with a burst of speed, they dashed towards the forest.

For vampires, the night was their realm, and they believed no prey could escape their grasp.

However, Xue Lang, who had experienced Gu Fan’s prowess, felt nervous upon seeing the pitch-dark forest; his first encounter with Gu Fan had been in a similar forest and he had lost despite having a clear advantage.

Xue Lang started to believe in the protection of the Destiny Stone on Gu Fan, fearing that initiating a conflict would only invite humiliation, so he deliberately slowed down, falling behind.

"Are you scared?" A female vampire wearing a mask suddenly caught up from behind.

"You came too?" Xue Lang was initially surprised, but then understood and couldn’t help but laugh, "Right, there are more than just Xue Wang and Lord Xiong who bear grudges against Gu Fan."

Meanwhile, Xue Wang and Lord Xiong stood high up, overseeing everything with calm expressions.

Lord Xiong remarked softly, "Wasn’t she in deep sleep? It was you who woke her up."

"Yes, it would be a shame to miss her, don’t forget, she hates Gu Fan more than we do," Xue Wang said, his lips curling into a smug smile. "Let’s make this hunt even more interesting."

"Now we need to think not just about how to kill Gu Fan, but about how he will fight back if he escapes," Lord Xiong said with concern, "After all, being protected by the Destiny Stone is his greatest advantage, and we can’t overcome it."

"So what, the Destiny Stone can only protect him; it can’t help him kill us," Xue Wang was dismissive, then glanced at the anxious Lord Xiong and asked, "Ever since you came to this city, you’ve been uneasy, as if you fear not Gu Fan, but someone else."

"What are you implying?" Lord Xiong’s expression showed displeasure.

Xue Wang didn’t mind, "According to the intelligence, there are two other individuals in this city with perfect immortality just like you, Lord Xiong; I wonder if you know them."

To that, Lord Xiong remained expressionless, as if he hadn’t heard a thing.

Just as Xue Wang was about to press further, Helen arrived. She saw Gu Weihai lying on the ground and immediately burst into tears.

"Helen, I didn’t mean to hurt your grandfather, but it was his own choice, he chose the Gu family, which can be considered honorable," Xue Wang remarked lightly.

Helen didn’t respond, biting back her tears, yet they kept rolling down her cheeks. Xue Wang saw a hint of resentment in her eyes.

Xue Wang didn’t care, knowing that even if Helen hated him, she wouldn’t betray Organization X, as Helen grew up in and felt a deeper connection and belonging to Organization X.

After a while, Helen closed her eyes in pain, accepting the reality, but still feeling resentful and angry. She took a deep breath, stood up, and faced Xue Wang directly, "I need to ask, Xue Wang, do you really intend to wipe out Gu Fan’s family completely?"

"Gu Fan never told you, after he returned from the ancient times, how he spoiled my plans. Because of Gu Fan, we were nearly wiped out. He exploited my trust in him, ultimately betraying us and played us for fools. If you were me, would you let him go?" Xue Wang spoke sternly, leaving no room for negotiation.

Helen, unfazed by Xue Wang’s imposing attitude, coolly responded, "But, it’s been centuries since then, why can’t we let bygones be bygones and work with Gu Fan? Perhaps he is the key to unlocking that region."

Hearing this, Lord Xiong frowned, "Yes, Xue Wang, we have been studying that region, the place that turned you into vampires, left behind by the ancient Super Civilization. We have cracked nothing, and Gu Fan has already been to Yuxueyun Mountain and Triangle Sea Area, maybe Helen is right, Gu Fan could be the key."

"Whether he is the key will be seen if he can survive this and prove to me that the Destiny Stone can indeed protect him," Xue Wang said brusquely, with a determined expression.

Lord Xiong, sensing the mood, remained silent afterward.

Helen had people take care of Gu Weihai’s body, and before she left, she didn’t forget to say, "Xue Wang, if this is just a test, then it’s really too much. You’ve angered Gu Fan, and you’ve made cooperation difficult; your actions are inviting the revenge of a man protected by the Destiny Stone, and you’re bringing a lot of trouble to Organization X."

Upon hearing this, Xue Wang’s face darkened; he didn’t respond, instead continuing to stare into the forest under the night sky.

"If I were you, I would heed Helen’s advice, but it’s too late now; the hatred continues, and it remains to be seen how Gu Fan will retaliate," Lord Xiong said softly.

"Fine, I really want to see if this kid can escape with you and me joining forces," Xue Wang, unconvinced of any wrongdoing on his part, said with an even stronger murderous gleam in his eyes. In fact, looking at the power disparity, it seemed impossible for Gu Fan to escape.

"We thought we had Gu Fan completely surrounded just now, and still, he managed to escape," Lord Xiong reminded.

Hearing this, Xue Wang’s heart sank, realizing he might have spoken too soon.
