Those Classmates who Suddenly Disappeared
Chapter 1544 New Rules

Chapter 1544: Chapter 1544 New Rules

"Alright, I’ve won. You all can leave now." Gu Fan said, meanwhile wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. There was no triumphant expression on his face, only the exhaustion from the great battle.

The Hunter’s Guild and representatives from various powers were stunned, not expecting that even with the big boss and the hunters together they would lose.

Suddenly, the big boss stood up again, having lost with nothing more to say, and without the intention to fight further, he was the first to leave with a stern face.

"Gu Fan, you’ve won, and you’re really strong, but don’t abuse your power just because you are strong. Now I can only hope you are right," the hunter said and then flew away on his sword, his face not disheartened by the defeat, but rather, calm.

Seeing the big boss and the hunter leaving one after another, the representatives from various powers knew it was pointless to continue fighting. However, before leaving, they couldn’t help but salvage some of their dignity with a warning tone: "Gu Fan, we respect you, so here’s a reminder, today what you’ve done has made enemies of many influential figures, powerful figures from all over, and your days ahead will be tough."

The Hunter’s Guild also advised Gu Fan, "Don’t think that just because you can overthrow Organization X, you can deal with those influential figures. They won’t confront you directly but will use their power to interfere in your life. Do you understand what I mean?"

Having heard this, Gu Fan’s heart sank, now fully realizing the gravity of the situation, but what was done was done and talking more was useless.

Gu Fan repeatedly thanked them for the advice, then watched them leave.

The battle finally came to an end, and Gu Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling exhausted and longing for sleep.

At that moment, Helen and Qiao Ya emerged from the castle mansion with some people, looking at the devastated battlefield, their hearts filled with immeasurable gratitude towards Gu Fan.

Helen wanted to say some words of thanks, but Gu Fan gestured no and added, "We’re all family here, no need for thank yous, it would be too formal."

Qiao Ya was worried, "What should we do next, especially you, Gu Fan? How are you going to deal with the retaliations and strikes from those influential figures?"

"I don’t know either?" Once the conversation turned to this, Gu Fan felt pessimistic, afraid that the adversaries might not confront him directly but might resort to schemes instead. For example, exploiting their influence over Gu Fan’s company, pushing it to the brink of bankruptcy, and so forth.

Previously, the various powers dared not act against Organization X in this manner because Organization X did not follow the rules, and offending Organization X today could mean disaster tomorrow; Organization X would send vampires to kill directly.

However, Gu Fan could not take actions like Organization X, so the various powers could use some tactics against him.

Qiao Ya suggested that if it was inconvenient for Gu Fan to act personally, they could do it on his behalf.

To this suggestion, Gu Fan shook his head and refused, not wanting to escalate the conflict if not necessary.

What’s most important now is change. Seeing the hopeful expressions on Helen and Qiao Ya, Gu Fan knew that since things had already unfolded to this stage, he had to brace himself and keep going.

Gu Fan asked Helen to issue a notice saying that Gu Fan has joined the East Nobles, becoming a part of them and helping Helen reorganize the East Nobles, but nominally the East Nobles would still be part of Organization X.

Furthermore, any vampire that wants to join the East Nobles must abide by the new rules of the East Nobles, which is not to attack humans and be a well-behaved vampire, otherwise, they can get lost.

"This..." Helen and Qiao Ya looked at each other, feeling that this step was too big. Think about it, vampires have been rampant for nearly a thousand years, and now suddenly they have to change their behavior and behave well, which is hard to accept.

Although Helen wanted to gradually adapt to this brand-new Organization X, her plan was to do it step by step, not to force vampires to change all at once.

But Gu Fan was determined to be firm, the more so, the more it would show the outside world the determination of the New X Organization to change, and the more it would give Gu Fan and the New X Organization a little more time.

As for those vampires unwilling to change, Gu Fan simply gave up on them; he had neither the time nor the interest to save all vampires, and he was well aware that only a minority could be changed.

After thinking it over, Helen adopted Gu Fan’s suggestion and immediately announced her and Gu Fan’s decision to all the vampires after returning.

For a moment, the vampires were hard to accept. They had some constraints when in Organization X, but it was never so tough. Now with such stringent restrictions, it felt like it was targeting them specifically.

Gu Fan’s reason was simple: he would not protect those vampires who behaved recklessly and would even take actions to eliminate these vampires, especially since the townhouse was very close to the city where he was.

Many vampires immediately objected and even wanted to leave the East Nobles to go to Xue Wang, because they felt that only with Xue Wang could they truly be themselves as vampires.

Gu Fan said it did not matter to him, but he believed that the Hunter’s Guild and various other forces would soon attack Xue Wang, and then it would be up to the vampires whether to continue living unrestrainedly or to save their own lives.

Now the vampires were worried. Currently, Organization X could be called a fallen tiger bullied by dogs; everyone thought they could suppress Organization X. Today was a good example, if not for Gu Fan’s forgiveness, looking after Helen, and offering help, it would have been dire...

Seeing most vampires hesitating, Xue Lang was the first one to stand out; he strongly supported Gu Fan and also thought it was time for vampires to change their ways, after all, before everyone became a vampire, wasn’t everyone an ordinary human being with blood, flesh, and feelings?

Xue Lang’s words quickly resonated with some vampires, and they also agreed to stay, living by the new rules.

Seeing the number of responsive vampires increasing, more vampires nodded as well. Initially, Helen was worried about losing many vampires, but thanks to Xue Lang’s remarks, the situation stabilized.

Most of those who stayed belonged to the East Nobles, they had witnessed how Xue Dong had died, and hating how the Xue Clan treated them as expendable objects, they also despised the way vampires were treated.

That is to say, after weighing their options, these vampires felt that other than staying, there was no better choice.

Naturally, there were still some vampires who wanted to break away from the East Nobles and, due to their disappointment with Organization X, did not intend to return to Xue Wang either, planning to live freely in this world, meaning they would no longer be bound by any constraints and could become a menace to society.

Naturally the threat of vampires has always existed, and this hazard will never vanish. Therefore, Gu Fan didn’t intervene, but instead issued a stern warning: You can live freely, but you cannot harm any person, otherwise, you are on your own.
